Hello there, thought i would introduce myself here and also introduce my server and the people that are on it and seeking new players. :) We're a group of 5 guys currently casually playing on a Overpoch server i made due to there were barely any if none that suited our flavour of content, we enjoy pve content but do not shy away from pvp as we would love to make that more frequent ingame. If you feel like checking out a new server i hope you check out mine, we're a friendly bunch of mainly british but also scandinavian origin, playing on a server hosted in Germany.

Change Log Added - supply drops (treasure,gold,building supplies and military) Added - tow more than one vehicle. Lift also implemented. Added - more roaming ai that now patrol in vehicles, helis more often. Added more car spawns on map.

See, I've found a much more viable tactic of not getting bullets into my body. I mind my surroundings, and don't wander around in the open. And the people shooting at you are idiots, since they're attracting a lot of unwanted attention. And what do you think will happen when you take a Mosin shot or a couple AK rounds to the chest while wearing a vest? You may not die, but you're still going down. There's only so much damage they can prevent. Also, you're describing arms races. If vests start protecting people, others will clamor for armor piercing rounds. Then that will lead to people wanting armored vehicles to hide in, and then we'll want RPGs to destroy them... Two months later, we're playing Battlefield Chernarus. Like I said, leave that stuff to the modding community. As soon as the game is properly released, they will go to work on things like this. Then everyone can play however they like.

If you cannot see what it can add to the experience then with no offence I am not going to try explain it to you as you haven't got the ability to think from the prospective of an individual that is in a far different world than we live in today. I'll say this though, am I talking about adding armoured vehicles or anti material rifles or am I talking about protection from bullets "as bullet resistance vests are designed to do" protecting your character's torso giving you the ability to be shot at for what ever reason with an increased chance of survival. STOP THINKING VESTS ARE AN ASSAULT WEAPON AND THINK OF IT FROM THE PROSPECTIVE OF PROTECTION AND INCREASING SURVIVAL IN COMBAT. I could take your mentality and say why have they added weapons to the game? this isn't a military shooter?.. See my point. Strip your mind of "military this and military that" and think "what is out there in the world that I could use to increase my chance of survival" No sane survivor would be running around in full kit? I'd say you are dead wrong. Soldiers walk around with bullet resistant vests, and before you try act smart, no one in their right mind would walk around in full military gear today where there is no need to carry around that gear because there is no imidiate risk of being shot, CORRECT. But this game is not set in a time where there is no immediate risk of being shot now is it? So yes. It would be considered a very sane thing to protect ones life by protecting ones body from harm and death.

My pc has been fixed a few weeks now and I'm back playing. There are a few severs still running. But I'm mainly playing on overwatch servers, which are like vanilla but have food, weapons and vehicles. Personally, I love it and am playing up to 6 six hours a day/night. Some are crowded pvp servers, others are quieter hunting/survival servers. I play both. I recommend you give them a go. :thumbsup:

Both damage models are imperfect, but ArmA 2 is not realistic at all, in terms of realism it's much worse than ArmA 3. Soldiers with present-day body armor die in one shot out to 800/900 meters. Pfft. And in ArmA 3 if you don't want players to tank shots then as the mission maker you can deny them armor and they will die just as easily as in Arma 2. ArmA 3 is based in 2035, not 1980, if they want to even pretend to be realistic they need to have body armor, and not just for cosmetics, it's not reasonable to expect them to ignore it. Their current damage model is not great, no penetration simulation, just effectively a big health buff, no weak points. Only penetration/no penetration on walls, armored vehicles... not personal body armor.

By asking everyone that plays, and having the only heli. Nothing is respawning after restart. We tested it several times by destroying vehicles right before restart. I check vehicle spawn points constantly. This is 436 which has very few players so it's not like people are taking them

Play Overpoch and it's worth it. Pretty cool mod with a lot of vehicles, including choppers and basebuilding + tons of weapons. It's not a lot like Dayz standalone, but can be fun . You can still get the standalone, they are different feeling games.

How on earth do you know that there's less than 10 vehicles on the server?? Are you an admin? Change logs for each patch can be found here.

Light disposable anti tank/personnel weapons for destruction of light vehicles, bunkers, and fixed emplacements. Think RPG-18/22. Uniforms for each faction from ArmA 2. A light pickup truck. Fixed weapon mounts and weapon resting.

I've had the bike thing happen to me with different vehicles, that was the work of a script kiddie using a hack, that in itself is not a breech of your account. The Russian name is questionable, but someone hacking into your account and installing hacks on their end would not affect your computer. Hacks don't work that way. If in doubt change your passwords and such if you're worried. They may have just been trolling you but I haven't played the Mod in a LONG time.

I play on 434/436 which is 99% vanilla stats. Myself and everyone I've asked have yet to see a padlock drop to upgrade the wooden gate with. Are they actually enabled as a drop? Also, is there a bug that screwed up vehicle respawns? No vehicles are respawning after a server restart and we're down to under 10 left on the map. Lastly, is there an up to date website for vanilla mod changes, recipes, stats, etc? Every site I've seen is rather outdated. I'm messing around a lot with base building and struggling to find info about the new changes. And where are the best places to farm nails? One fully upgraded wall needs SEVEN nails! I have maybe 30 nails total after 2 weeks of daily playing and farming. I think the requirements need to be lowered a bit.

Radiation will kill a player in around 5 minutes and will cause radiation sickness which behaves like infection. Antibiotics will cure it, if you're lucky enough to have some or have the right items to craft some. Armoured vehicles can provide some protection but the moment you're exposed, you will again succumb to the effects...

To get back on-topic; I think the absurd running speed (especially fists-raised) is to balance the lack of vehicles in the game. I suspect it will be taken out when more (types of) vehicles get implemented and thus will probably be removed in this or next quarter (disclaimer: just my expectation, not based on any confirmed info).

Exactly I think I got the M4 out of my system a while ago when there were way more common. That is true its just not worth all the effort, it didn't even have that great of range. Its basically a CQB gun with little reach. Which means if you want to get in a shoot out, you got to get in close putting your self at risk with a super rare gun lol. Your luck will run out at some point with that shit real quick. I would take a akm over m4 too. Maybe the m4 is slightly better in CQB, other then the akm, but the AKM is far more versatile. AKM is a mean sob too. 70 round drums, pso, and the other attachments. Fairly easy to find. Not bad at all. Its got really respectable range too. Also the by the way, In RL the M4 is not the flag ship assault rifle for the US. The M16 is. The reason so many troops have been using them the last few years is urban warfare, and being ambushed while inside vehicles. There short and easy to move around. But the M16 which is vary similar pretty much a longer with different butt stock has far more range. Were taking 500 yards iron sight. Scope you got even more range....If the put the M16 in game with real world specs....bye bye mosin lol Everyone would want one. Thats the NATO rifle I want to see in game!

Some good fun changes has come to the epoch cherno server.. Because everyone has been affraid to buy any of the bronze vehicles due to the sheer price of them, i decided that makes sense So i took all the bronze vehicles and have dramatically dropped the prices of them by a lot. the Warrior is now 60 briefcases, and they go down even more after that.. the BTR90 is now like 20 briefcases and so on. The BDRM2 with the KVPT is 10 briefcases and so on.. At the same time some new weapons have beenadded to the server. I alot of people have been asking for some air defence for a long time so I have gone in and added in the stingers and other AA rocket launchers to the RPG dealer. I hope you all enjoy a little more mayhem.

I will keep it civil. All has to do with .54 1. If your client crashes while driving a vehicle, your character may be reset. 2. If you approach a vehicle from the wrong direction, even when it's sitting still, it will kill you. 3. If you get out of a vehicle, you may die. If you love your gear, be very careful with the vehicles right now.

They have recently re-added the plate carrier vest into the game "From what I heard hackers could spawn this item" this vest was literally one of the most anticipated items in the game for me to be added. But sadly as I expected this item to not function at all like most features added to the game I was correct, let me digress A kevlar vest uses fibres to trap the bullet and stop penetration. A level 2 bullet resistant vest can stop 9mm and 357 magnum at point blank with a level 3A "Also kevlar" being able to stop a 9mm and 44 magnum point blank. Now let's actually compare hard plate vests shall we? A level 3 hard plate vest can stop in its tracks a 7.62x51mm nato ball round. A level 4 hard plate vest can stop a 30-06 ARMOUR PIERCING ROUND!!! But the plate carrier that's just been added is defeated like any other clothing item in the game, One .380 pistol round goes right through the vest damaging both the vest and your blood level? Remember a bullet has to pass through the bullet resistant material to make contact with flesh. I can understand a kevlar vest giving shock damage when hit but a plate disperses the impact on the plate itself so a plate vest should take all pistol rounds in game with ease shot after shot after shot after shot after shot, I would even dare say the damage to the plate would be so minuscule from pistol rounds you could take a couple of magazines to the same region on the plate and not get through, with the 7.62x51mm nato being stopped for a far lesser amount. how it should be Kevlar vest if added "Pistol rounds should not go through, remember its fibre so it can take multiple shots without breaking apart like plate armour so no blood damage should be dealt and if there is it should be a tiny amount as bruising would take place and possible internal bleeding though what is more likely is a superficial wound like being hit by a really powerful paint ball causing broken skin bleeding and a hefty welt. 5.56 and above should go clean through. Plate vest like I said above should take pistol rounds all day with ease with only the 7.62x51mm nato round doing hefty damage to the plate and able to get through after a few shots. The first shot to the plate should give no blood damage or shock damage and the second should give some shock damage and no blood damage, the third should go through. Now from personal experience and observation what I have said will offend the knights of dayz and they will be thirsty for blood so let me set a challenge for you to overcome, you WILL say this is over powered and make's the wearer a tank undefeatable by mere mortals, to the vests defence I ask you to take second and think what a real life bullet resistant vest does. Dayz is trying to be realistic? The firearms are trying to mimic the real thing food tries to mimic the real thing the vehicles are trying to mimic the real thing so let's not forget that in real life if a person is shot with a class 4 vest with a 30-06 armour piercing round he will be unscathed. Aim for unprotected area's of the body, the head the neck the arms the legs. So what do you think?

Just happened to me for the first time tonight, it's no joke. Don't approach vehicles from behind.

More guns. Heavy weapons. Explosive weapons and items. Many more vehicles incl whirly birds. And more guns, so many different guns that seeing the same one twice requires a lot of looking. Examples include: FN FAL (I think this is already on the list?) A skorpion (why is this not in the game already, should have been one of the first weapons) An M40 rifle Heavy machine guns, mountable tripods and the ability for them to pull straight out of ammo boxes. Different variations and sizes of the Uzi Grenade launcher attachments with various grenade types. (Illum, stun, gas, HE, etc) High cap shotguns .50 BMG rifles (Beowolf, Barret M82, Steyr HS) Mortars Anti-Vehicle heavy weapons (javelins, RPGs etc) C4 and other explosives A sexy benelli shotgun or something An oldschool tommy gun (to go with the tracksuit and skullcap, should also make your character sound italian) Grenades that actually work A working hind and blackhawk Light tanks and armored vehicles An ice cream truck No more pens please, for the moment.

Sorry, did indeed miss the handcar. Focused on the word Tram/Rail car and figured you meant something along the lines of an DMU or EMU. A hand/pump car would be doable IMO, but still I doubt it's high up on the Devs' list of things to do. I'm not sure if they were very popular outside of North America. It would still have the problems of being blocked by other things on the rails, although they're usually lightweight enough for the crew using it to derail, move pass the obstacle, and rerail. Now I have seen some rather interesting videos in Europe of a man 'rail surfing' using a wooden pallet and simple wheels on tramways and streetcar lines. That would be even lighter than even a simple handcar (though maybe not as simple to move) as you can literally pick it up and carry it. In the US we have handcars (obsolete and usually found on museum lines or in private hands) speeders (both antique and new) which are motorized, Hi-Rail equipped vehicles, or even modified road vehicles themselves (post D-day they used Jeeps fitted with flange wheels in French Trainyards to act as switchers). I do hope someday we'll have rail vehicles in SA, but only if they do it in a realistic manner. It urks me in game when I see errors when it comes to trains. European Buffers and equipment on whats suppose to be a North American Railroad, or knuckle couplers on European equipment. Much in the same way the Mosin being chambered for 7.62 NATO urks our gun lovers. Though so far what I've seen just from the right of way is satisfactory on BI's end (though there's a few glaring things like the grade being more like a rollercoaster in some areas)
