I've played for 3 weeks now. I've been teleported by a hacker once, which I just aborted off the server and logged back in where I was before the teleport. Seen evidence of them only one other time outside of that where he teleported into our camp and started launching m203 grenades everywhere. He killed no one, but did blow up vehicles.

yesterday we stole helicopter, motorbike, 2x atv's, a tractor and the v35 we had stolen from us the day before before finding the v35 3 days ago vehicles hav been very far and few inbetween ... we even lost the chopper and an atv during the day, not so easy come, easy go ..i guess

It is only on the server it is placed on You must select the Save Tent option to save the contents If your tent is flatted/blown up/attacked by rabbits, it will reappear on server reset. If you place a tent, you can pick it back up as long as you have not died. (might be bugged as I could pack someones tent at a camp I had never been too yesterday) Anyone can loot your tent, so try to hide it. Vehicles same thing with the save option but if they are destroyed, they wont reappear after a restart.(will also lose any items inside when they are blown up)

Truth. This game is so much fun when you come across a vehicle and can ferry all your pals to the same location. Hoarding vehicles just ruins the server for everyone else.

Perl, some advice for a fellow SA: Post the logs showing the short period of time that they were on. This will show that they are no legit acquiring so many vehicles in such a short period of time. You, not the player are assumed to be the bad person here, as can be seen by Viiking's post. The forum community only reads what they want to in the post and skips the rest, as Viiking did.

So yeah, last night I was on US1102 raiding Stary Sobor and I found car. Looks like all it was missing was a few tires. So I headed north to search for supplies. I start walking through the field, and I notice what looks like a bus. I walk over to it, fully expecting to get sniped, but low and behold nothing happens to me. I hop in the driver's seat and notice that the bus is fully repaired and has 3/4 of a tank of gas. So, whoever you are, thanks for the bus! I'm not sure who left it in the middle of a field, but I sure did appreciate it. Ran all over the map all night last night with it. While it's not the best vehicle for driving, it was a lot of fun since it's only the 2nd vehicle I've ever found. To those unlucky folks who can't find vehicles, it guess it's all about being in the right place at the right time. Now we'll see how long I can keep this thing before I get sniped. ;)

Last Resistance There's only us and the dead. We survive this by pulling together, not apart. We're surrounded by the Dead. We're among them -- and when we finally give up we become them! If Man does not stand together then we are lost. We have to fight back and liberate Chernarus from the dead, together. We are The Last Of The Resistance. Why we want more: The Last Resistance that consists of more then just the six guy's above is a mature an more older group of players seeking more. Reasons so is because Arma/DayZ can be enjoyed more with other's, more laughs, more fun and to be more serious give us more options to change the way we play. We do encourage older and mature player that are in there 18+ area to join. We do not have a problem with age, we have had members who are younger be an issue but it's not the case. Being of a younger age you will feel out of place, jokes you may not get and don't like the way we play. With more people in The Resistance we can in DayZ do more and be more safe. The Last Resistance is strictly looking for more casual players. We play for fun, laughs and a good time. You don't play video games to stress out and be angry at other's for no reason. The Last Resistance is a place where you can make friends. Guy's who can help and support you, chatting. New to the game or not Last Resistance will help you out no matter. We survive by pulling together, no apart. DayZ: The day the infected came to Chernarus and chaos had struck turning everyone against each other Last Resistance was formed. Players in DayZ whom where all at the beginning alone and had to fend for themselves. Now we all play together as a group, working together, helping other survivors and each other. Never playing alone. We shoot other's when we feel threatened only. As a group the Last Resistance uses there tents in a different way then making camps. Same with vehicles. The Server The Last Resistance is on will not be posted on this thread for the time being. We are a group of guy's not the military with a rank structure. In game if you have a plan and we all agree we do it. We don't follow one man like a lost dog. There's one person who organising things, myself. In a group like ours, when you all get to know each other you no longer fight, argue. We work together. How people should. Other game: We have found ourselves doing much more in Arma lately. It's a huge world and it should be explored by other players in DayZ. Scenarios, there's so many out there, CityLife and much more. Some have exchanged Origin account names an may play BF3 with each other to pass time. We play DayZ allot but there's allot of fun out there in Arma and we have been exploring it. We are a group of guy's playing for fun and to have a good time; not playing serious Completed Goals: Establish Home Server: We have our very own server (North American Server) Obtain Vehicles: Done Base and Base of operation: Done Help Survivors and Eliminate all Bandit Threats: Always needs doing Applications: Please either post below or Pm me Steam Username: Age: You must have a mic: Are you willing to use Team Speak 3: Have you been in a clan in the past?

No it cant, read the battleye website http://www.battleye.com/support.html Clearly states you wont be banned for using hacked items or vehicles, only for spawning them. Thats just a completely wrong attitude towards it. Day Z stated the rules, you dont have the right to take away the ability for anyone to play, unless they are clearly hacking. If everyone did as you did, a lot of people would have trouble playing because hackers spawn weapons on everyone on the server. Its not up to you or any other admin to bend the rules Rocket put in place.

Does anyone know of any servers that were recently stood-up that have a good administration team behind them? I had my 17 day old guy killed in the wave of hacking in US10 that has happened over the past few days and want to find another server to play on until things there get under control. My character on that server was on a 3 day hunt for a vehicle with absolutely no luck. I want to try a server that has only been up for a few days so that all the vehicles have not been horded into the middle of nowhere.

only real endgame is when you have a group of survivors, go on 'missions' to gear up new members, help other players in the medical thread, scout for vehicles etc.

How to you plan to trade vehicles if they are server restricted. If someone offers one with a high ping on their side. Then its not going to be fun for you,

More vehicles, camps, weapons you dont have, ammo, more ghillies for after you die. MOAR!

Hi Vipeax, I don't like bothering the team, do you have a update on how the 1.7.2.5 patch is going? A rough date on the release, it seems its been pushed back. Secondly are you aware that vehicles are not saving correctly? See: https://dev-heaven.net/issues/39441 Cheers! :)

Yea, but when you die you have to change server to load up with some gear and then there's no vehicles on that server either :( So nice when you have supplies and vehicles on a server.

Worst trade offer ever ... Find them yourself ... its pretty easy to find a vehicle imo ... if you were able to find your high tier weapons you should be able to find vehicles ... GL

Do you want the best equipment in dayz? The only thing you have to do is to offer us some vehicles!

Like I've said before. There are no other bans that we have placed besides the default bans.txt list. As well, Rocket encourages clans to host their own server to call it home. You sure know that when you're entering a clan server that they'll have some decent camps setup with multiple vehicles. I certainly go around to clan servers and enjoy a challenge of finding those tents and looting them. This is part of the game. Enjoy a challenge. I'm not quite sure why you're still complaining. In the logs it appeared as though you had teleported to that location as there was no previous movement with the character with a HUGE jump in distance between logins. It was extremely odd to land a heli in a secluded location FAR from any location and then be killed upon exiting the heli. With DayZ servers currently being bombarded by hackers that do similar things it's hard not to speculate. A temp ban was set and literally after 5 minutes removed. Feel free to play on the server. James' ban was removed as well. This thread can be closed.

I was spending a few hours to come up with a few things that are improving the gameplay. Will add a few nice features and for sure make sense ( we are not talking about unrealistic Changes which will make the initial idea of a realistic survival game ridiculous). 1) Ropes for the Helicopter: We don't need to argue about the realism in this one since it is a basic tactic everyone knows about. So let's focus on the improvement for the game: a ) Rescue Survivors without having to land to give them assistance We have been all in a situation where we are on a roof or somewhere else far off a helicopter suited landing site therefore it would be great to be able to rescue players with the rope out of the situation or make people descend to the person's assistance. b ) Improved Looting The hit and run looting which is probably the safest can be brought to perfection. Send a scout in, then bring in the guys, grab stuff and get out of there. c ) Ensuring a helicopter's safety As the helicopter as to fly in for a moment and is off again it reduces the chance for a loss which is a hard thing to swallow at times ( Again, Helicopters are Gear, so do not get attached to it anyhow). A landed Helicopter is a very easy target... Balance: Ropes are a rare to very rare spawn, have to be attached to a helicopter and cannot be dismounted. Plus maybe a maximum of usage after which the rope is "destroyed" 2) Teamwork for Repairs I know this has been suggested before but I wanted to add some substance to it. First of all it is not realistic that one man can change or repair the Engine of a Bus or any other vehicle in no time without any help. I have come up with two ways to solve this: a) Duration The repair could take five minutes when attempted alone. For each player that joins in the time could be lowered by 30% which is fair enough and would contribute to teamplay and prevent player's from repairing a shot vehicle too fast making it more realistic and fair for the players who do not have a vehicle b ) Teamwork The repair would only be able by two or more players. Attempting it alone will result in a failure and therefore is impossible this is a good way to force the players to team up. The looting of cars will be done but they cannot be used that well against other players unless they team up. 3) Locking vehicles We all know that vehicles can be locked and therefore cannot be taken nor raided by everyone. My suggestion to achieve this is that it requires a crowbar to break into the trunk(storage) of a vehicle. It would make more realistic again plus we would have a reason to pick up the crowbar and yet the player who carries it is vulnerable so teaming up is required as well ( unless you find an abandoned vehicle) 4) Shooting out of Vehicles (Mainly Bus etc) I am sure we all miss that feature since it is the most common thing when fired upon that one would fire back which forces the owner of a vehicle into a though decision. Step out and fight or try to flee. I personally would prefer the ability to shoot while driving ( we all know the chance to hit during a full speed drive is so damn low) but it would force the attackers to keep their distance, Enabling an escape (not to mention PVP Vehicle Fights) That's all I got for now. Leave your comments and be careful in Chernarus

I'm the admin of US 1313, and I will answer all questions in PMs. I will say to my knowledge Karou or whatever his name is has not run any unknown scripts, but this lead poisoning person I do not know much of. I don't think I've seen much of him.. I will look into this for sure. The camp you found north of the NEAF was indeed my groups, and has since been moved since that raid. No one was hacking, as you saw since your buddy was able to kill all 3 of us. It's called voice communication and having people in the area who were on teamspeak that could login. We're not new to this game. As far as the item duping, there is NO duping going on that's happening intentionally. I will explain for two reasons. One: When you have 10 to 15 players in your squad playing together every day all using one camp. you're going to see a massive return on items. Also, there is no way for us NOT to dupe all the time. If you do not know, there is a massive bug with how the hive is saving things. For example, place a tent, and put your weapon in the tent. Save the tent. Then take your weapon out a couple hours later. At the server restart, you will have that weapon still in your hand, and another one in the tent since it's not saving properly(I hate to tell people how to do this but this is well known now so..) If the server ever goes down, and does not return within 5 minutes, it was NOT a restart as I have never taken this server down intentionally for multiple hours. I reset the server once every 6 to 8 hours for stability purposes. I've also shut down the server during a hacker attack(So we could take care of them, and spare the rest of the people playing from needless deaths due to some no life kids) but it was promptly restored within 5 minutes give or take. One more thing: The green ural like vehicle, is called a v3s, and it's a legitimate vehicle. Look it up please. As far as I know, that is not our vehicle. And vehicles are not saving properly either. If you take a vehicle, and DO NOT save it, it will be back in it's original saved location, which was our camp, which is why the vehicles always returned there. I'm sure others will relate to this if they see this thread. Durpee: That amount of zombie kills does nothing to indicate a hacker. I've had characters alive for only 12 hours or so with 500+ zombie kills. If there's no one on the server, and you're bored...you end up shooting plenty of them. Anything further, please take to PMs with me. I'd be happy to describe and explain that exact situation you're referring to(the firefight at the camp), and I'd even do it on teamspeak with you. Just to further assure you there is no one in my group doing anything illegitimate, and if I find out they are, they will be removed.

You should just have 3 factions in this game - Russian Airborne Troops (VDV), US Marines and civilians (Chernarussians). You should, when you respawn, spawn as one of the factions at random. If you spawn as the VDV - you spawn in NW of map, you could also have an an-72 or mil-26 crash site (no loot). The VDV would have the skins we have now: their mission was to recon the US invasion of Chernarus and they would claim, if caught, that they worked for a US PMC. The US Marines would spawn on the south beach: in the ideal i'd like to see several burned out AAV's or choppers on the beach, which can't be repaired and have no loot(too much loot in the game as it is). The US marines where invading Chernarus (I didn't play Arma 2 or Arma 2 OA, except the first mission) and got into this mess (you where ambushed). They should have different skins (as an example - desert camo as a starter). Finally, the civilians - you spawn on the center or NE of the map. You have civilian clothes (look at a civilian zombie and you see what I mean). The key point - you start with the same equipment!!! As the VDV soldier - your plane or chopper (an-72 or mil-26) crashed and you bailed out at the last minute. As a US marine you where on a chopper or AAV and you where shot down before the infection spread. And as the civilian you have always been in Chernarus. You could add before you spawn 20 seconds of darkness with certain sounds playing sounds: like a plane crashing for the VDV, an ambush for the US marines and farming (or whatever sounds or music you use to represent a quiet village life). What I am recommending doesn't add loot spawns or anything else, just some setting to the game. Right now it feels like you've awakened on a strange island with zombies and have to survive. It would be best if the South of the map had (aside from civillian spawns) only US military spawn (incl. vehicles), the NW and some of the center - Russian military spawns. Civilians spawns (weapons and vehicles) appear everywhere, however you have a much higher chance of finding civ. loot in the center and NE of the map. In the perfect world I'd like an An-72 spawn south of the airfield (just a plane crash, bodies, metal ripped etc - little left of the plane), 2-3 AAV (can't be repaired, no loot) nearby each other on the South beach with signs of heavy combat and, maybe, old WW2 trenches in the center of the map in the Black Forest (say civilians survived there during the initial outbreak). All of this would give you a plot, which you could work with. The key point - no new equipment, no new loot spawns and the same starting equipment for everyone. Comments, questions, hating - GO.

okay you clearly dont know what your talking about we got hacked DAILY for the last weeks. we have seen ppl change the time of the day cayse they dont have NVGs so they can see... we have numberous teleporting hacks that got some of us killed. and we have seen the massive kill hacks... you all play this game for free and thats the only reason that makes you guys come here and start complaining how admins (THAT PAY FOR THEIR OWN SERVER) run their server. and why should we cry if one of our vehicles gets stoolen at a certain place? isn't that the meaning of this game? lol cmon YOU sound like your a 5 year old. each time we get hacked we put up a password on the server for a few hours, the last time we put up a password was cause we all got tired of being hacked over and over again so we left it passworded longer then we intended to do. you have to see it on both ends here what if you are an admin of your server wont it freak you out if YOUR server got hacked over and over while the DayZ staff doen't do anything about and the only thing you can do is lock it? and just so you know we are putting the server up to veteran mode over the weekend so everything will reset. ooh and btw we are not a clan! EDIT: just checked the browser and there are 48 locked servers lol

Hello survivors! I'm hosting a private DayZ (NOT synched with the Hive) Server, and now my friends and me want to get a BMP-2 in it. I've already seen people driving around with tanks and shooting with rocket launchers on their server, so yes it is possible. I do NOT plan to do this on official servers or whatever, it is just for me and my friends on a non-synched server (Yes i already mentioned it :)) I've already added a lot of vehicles to it, that already existed and it worked, just the objects that didn't exist yet just wont spawn. Is anyone here experienced and has a few minutes to show me how that works quickly? I'd appreciate your help very much since i spent already 13 hours on that without any kind of success. Greetz, Thiefnuker

Wait, i thought there was already a "feature" that auto-cleared vehicles that are left outside of the map bounds or something ? Something that respawns them at their original location if this is the case. Or did i just dream it ?

Okay so I've begun server hopping ALOT for server action wich is sad, I want to stick to a server but I try avoid camping at the NWA and I dont want to stick to the south border to kill newbies, I wont. Guuuuuhhh getting bored to my ass here.. I wanna find players in towns to it gets exciting but never do.. I don't want to run for vehicles I don't want to build a base since there's no players around and I can't be online all the time to guard the shit. I want to find players on a regulary basis in towns to keep it interesting but there's none. (Can't waitn for more implements) So what are you guys doing when you are bored to death in this game?

i like the suggestion in the OP.... however the main problem is how vulnerable the vehicles are... it means that people are less likely to drive their vehicle knowing that it can be heard from 200-300 metres away and anyone with an AK can destroy you with relative ease. if you were more 'safe' in a vehicle then people might actually drive around a lot more instead of bogarting them. the best solution would make some kind of benefit to not shooting people on sight. because right now there is none. another solution would be to make vehicles 'bullet proof' UNTIL the hull has been destroyed (i.e. you can't be shot immediately through the window until the car has already taken a large beating). the added protection would make the vehicle a nice comfort instead of a ticking timebomb.
