I just want my own bicycle so I can ring the bell :'( Isn't there a respawn on the vehicles?

you also have to realize that people like to collect them and hide them. every now and then you will run across a stash of vehicles and tents that some clan has set up. loot city!!

It also may be an addition benefit to add either anti-vehicle mines (Damage wheels) or more common anti-vehicle weapons. Caltrops would also be a possibility. We still want to make vehicles something special, but not as rare as they are now. Problem is that if we provoke a "glut", that everyone will be driving around in cars etc. Then again "accidents" account for alot of the vehicles. Would be interesting to see what would happen if the spawn limits were removed,

Rondom vehicles. According to this map I visited about ten places where vehicle spawn, but nothing found. The appearance of vehicles depends on the number of players? On my server just 2 players.

ai yes, this be a point brought up before, to which im not entirely sure on ze answer, although there are more favourable solutions on my palette. its for that reason i havnt really dabbled deep into it because i think its a problem you can attach already to peeps setting up tents, and hiding vehicles away in their secret bases. I think a massive extension and greater creative capacity should be explored with traps. This could potentially help this situation. Otherwise i have seen the dev team discussing this idea requesting feedback which seems pretty interesting: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/29313-some-feature-ideas-requesting-feedback/

Once a group controls that industry, they cant transfer it to another server, like all the permafixtures, it stays there. If they wanna control other industrys on other servers, meeeh i can see that would become an issue, but tbh i think it would be easier for a clan that was considering doing this to keep as many industrys on the same server. So for example, it would be pointless server hoping for a garage, because the vehicles stay stuck in the server. IT would be pointless to server hop once your electric grid is up, because electricity can only be sent/used to areas on that server (not transferable across servers), the radio tower, the ac tower, they all effect and are effected by the server they are on, and not any other. Sooo tbh I think this would more likely bind larger groups to specific servers then force them to hop more often.

Alas it will happen. Things will disappear, up to and including vehicles and tents. The game is in a development cycle and a state of flux. You will always lose things. The dev team could announce five minutes from now that a full database seset has been done while you were reading this post... Best way to never lose equipment: once you have it, take a screenshot. Log out. Print out that screenshot for fond memories. Never log in again, and you can pretend that your pixels are always there, waiting for you. Pro tip: pass that screenshot print out on to your kids! Family heirlooms are made this way!

At the moment, the best way to store items in on your person. tents are not safe, but sadly neither are vehicles. Hackers can teleport right next to any vehicle if they so wish, and anyone can find the ATV or car you parked and just drive off with it. Remember you are playing an Alpha game, and things are not perfect. I used to work hard to get my clans camps stocked etc, but we got raided and now I just don't bother. I use only what I can carry and fuck the rest.

Thats not the same issue, what you noticed on your server is normal, because arma 2 (correct me if i'm wrong) can't "start" a mission automatically it only can "select" one. At least one player has to be on the server to start. ;) Do you mean random vehicles or vehicles you already found and placed somewhere?

Vehicles still work. I was on a mission yesterday to get one so I could have a stash. Tested it through a server restart and they still work.

There is, if you look at the Day Z map they updateded it yesterday and there is far more vehicles on it now.

Age (Be Honest): 18 In Game Name: Knoob Country/Timezone: U.S.A./Central Are You Active?: I am very active when I am allowed to be. I work Tuesday - Saturday 9pm - 3am so I am a little tired during the day, but I play as much as I am able. Also, on my days off (Sunday and Monday) I rest a bit on Sunday and play most of both days. Experience In Dayz: I started a couple months or about a month ago and have non-stopped played. I have traveled around the map and worked with most of the weapons and vehicles that you come across as well as the tools that you can find in DayZ. Have You Worked In A Team Before?: I have not work in an organized team before, but I have a few friends that I have met in game or over the forums that I do play with. They are a good group of people and we work well together (sometimes) so I consider them a bit of a team but never anything organized such as a squad or something along those sorts. I am fine giving my Skype on here. It is: GamerKnoob

To see hacks in games is normal for me. WoW is a horde pvp botterzone, CoD wallhack and aimbot, BF 3 aimbot, Darkfall was a massive aimbot,speedhack fly through walls etc. area. The difference in DayZ is that most hackers not only use their aimbots and speedhacks an so on but also use script injections. Which means they can spawn all sorts of vehicles, airstrikes, cloak em and be really shitheads. Theres a lot of work to do to get rid oft that

Real world situation guys. Me: Ahhhhh did you see that guy I just pinged him in the face with the Lee Enfield lawl... Jaeger: Hahaha - oh.... M:What? J: The server log just went nuts, I think someone just tried to spawn 8 vehicles. M: Where? J:Logs won't tell you. M: Who is trying to do that? J: I don't know the logs won't tell you. M: So what options have you got? J: I can either kick everyone one by one until I get him and when he loads back in ban him. Or... shut the server down until they get bored and leave. M:Man that's kinda a shitty deal for a server admin? J: Yup. ---5 minutes later--- User: JAEGER, THE SERVER IS BEING HACKED AND I LOST A TENT WTF YOU FUCKED UP MAN DO YOUR JOB AND LIKE, GET MY SHIT BACK THIS IS RIDICULOUS GET A FUCKING GRIP ON YOUR SERVER WTH. Option 1. Boot everyone and try and isolate hackers = User Rage. Option 2. Close the server until hackers get bored = User Rage. Try to have some understanding here folks, Jaeger doesn't sit on a golden admin thrown chuckling as we all die to hackers, he is getting killed as much as everyone else since he is one of the few admins that actively participates in the game. He does whatever he can, whenever he can. If you lost a tent or your camp yes that sucks dick but that is an ARMA II // Battleeye issue, not Rocket's and certainly not jaegers and whilst he is doing everything he can to help the admin tools he has are limited to say the least. Thanks.

Campfires... and the flames are from destroyed vehicles... How is this a suggestion?

I'm amazed, this seems like a very good idea to fix all that hoarding and crap. But you know what'll happen, the people who manage to get the first vehicles will begin to hoard them, and then it'll be the same situation, unless the vehicle limit is like 50.

Your first section has nothing to do with spawning vehicles. The second is teleporting.

I see FAR TOO MANY threads stating they found a large camp supposedly the admins and they raid it then get banned. This is just annoying now. It's usually text and you have no proof! Get proof then it'll be worth it to take action, the accusations I've read are absurd e.g. I came across a large camp 20 to 30+ tents a heap of vehicles and weapons and shortly after I raided it I was banned without reason! BAN US++++ (+ being the ID or any other region) These threads are just spam a lot of other people including I would love to see these threads be deleted if they do not have proof. I may extend upon this in a later thread or I may not but you can see that It's pissing me off how these idiots just spam spam spam crappy made up stories and I'm not saying that they're all fake but the majority is, that they spam these stupid stories with no proof of them being banned and ends up them being butt hurt over them dying at a large camp and lossing their gear along with not gaining the gear they found. (FULLY RAGE POST!!)

Hmmm interesting... did you filmed how you guys knew where all the possible vehicles scattered in the map that we owned were located? and how you found every single one of them that we hardly got and were pretty well hidden (not included the ATV´S which were in a really bad place)? and how you guys got to the same place like 5 minutes after your death´s fully armed with SD weps and ghillies (which are absolutely hard to get or even impossible at the current state of the mod says, the ghillies of course) ohhh and did you filmed how you guys manage to get like 20 satchel charges to blow up like 100 meters of forest around our camp? we saw you guys doing weird stuff like 3 times after the third one was enough! funny that you guys as soon as i spawned like 1 minute later after logging in, you all were like 20 meters away from me in the woods with ghillie suits and jumped on me! and another coincidence... i think i heard about some hacks updates the same day it all happened and it was impossible to detect scripts! Yeahimh, Kaj and Hillbilly were all scripting and dont deny it! if you were planning to come to our server and do whatever you guys wanted, well forget about that! play fairly or get the hell out! there are enough scripters in the game already! and just to let you know! after i started playing the day after i killed myself so i wouldnt carry your filthy scripted items! PS: Funny how you guys can know that it was me without Tags inside the game and with just 1 minute after logging inside the server, please... just stop using those lame scripts and play fairly.

It sounds like the admin logged in right after you raided. He sees his camp got raided, he hear a truck in distance or try to head south to see if he can find the missing truck. He's lucky and catch you down. The admin have probably looted the weapon from a hacker. Note: You can keep items that you take from hackers. Also what you call duplicated items might be non intentional if you take items from vehicles/tent and you forgot to save it, it will return back after next server restart. Few days ago me and my friend raided some other servers, we were lucky and stumbled upon some camps. In one of them there was like 7 ghillies and we found some ghillies in other camps too as well. At the end of the day we had 12 ghillies suits. So there is many ways to get that amount of ghillies. By the way you say the admin shoots from an AS50? You're probably right, he use the AS50 TWS which you saw earlier on. The AS50 TWS has thermal sight, then i doesn't matter if its day or night. He can see you anyway. This is not me. This was posted on Battlefield.no yesterday as you see they're raiding along coast, Maybe they saw you there under the trip? Maybe you're the butthurt one? :rolleyes: Source: http://www.battlefie...0#entry2297581:

Required: * US519 * Right now 4:55am my time (Halifax Nova Scotia) * Heard lots of shots and people driving around vehicles in cherno. I am atop the factory sort of place overlooking the apartments and hospital. Very tme these guys fire, someone dies on the server. I was watching and listening but could not see anything only hear it (like it was the other side away from the apartments). Suddenly a couple of shots rang out and I got the 'in shock' sort of graphic on the HUD - even there was nobody in sight (I have an acog assault rifle). Just as I was getting a screenshot, I turned in to a chopper site sort of zombie and started killing myself. I disconnected quickly in an attempt to keep my long lasting character alive. Edited to add - I notice all my kill stats have reset to 0 when I changed to the zombie. I am about to log in to a different server to see what the damage is and potentially grab further screenshots. Optional: - Video proof - Pictures Screen in which you can see from my hands I have just transformed into a chopper pilot zombie. http://imageshack.us...00/cheat2w.jpg/ Kindly convict their arses. One other thing of not is that it took a very long time on creating character and generally getting on to this server.

I have a TS server that I play on. We are just a bunch of guys that cruise around and have a bit of fun, nothing serious. I have been in plenty of buses and other vehicles with them, and looking at those vids above... i wouldn't particularly enjoy being made to drop my weapons and made to fight in an arena.

It was a valiant attempt Max. I am only glad neither of us are battle loggers like your friend Androedia97. I got behind that tree and bandaged and shot you off that bike. I would have more respect for you if you hadn't first tried to shadily trade, under an alias we now know, for vehicles to get on to our server only to harass us. You are definitely persistent however, and I do look forward to seeing you this weekend.

Constantly avoiding fights and pilfering things for no other reason than to pilfer them is stupid, and a waste of time. Not true banditry, just being annoying. Your "camp" with your "stolen" vehicles was less than 2km from the original set up. Not sure what you are hoping to accomplish. EDIT: also, found a pile of Mk SD ammo very close to your camp in the trees...interesting as that does not spawn in game. I really wouldn't put it past you to be using a script to find the vehicles in the first place.

But... firefights happening over vehicles is awesome! I do agree that certain low level vehicles should have faster respawn times. It would be nice if bikes were a little easier to find. If the respawn points could be more randomized, it would keep people from server hopping to find a vehicle. More respawn points (tons more) but a lower percent chance of a vehicle actually spawning there, like with loot. If only a few points had a vehicle respawn every few days, it would be pointless to search all the spots looking for a vehicle on reset.
