I played the mod for the first time the other day, and while it did look much less polished and older, which makes sense since it is, I did enjoy it a lot. The vehicles and weapons were new to me and instead of sitting there nitpicking what I liked or disliked when compared to the standalone, I just treated it like a different, albeit similar, game. I will have to agree that its largely pvp as far as my experience so far goes, but then again, so is a lot of the standalone.

I see a lot of servers that have '24/7 Day' in the server name/description. For those of you that are experienced with the mod, this is a hallmark of things to come. A bad omen perhaps. What I mean by that is many fear that when the private hive is established, DayZ as we know it will more than likely revert back to over-modded servers. Custom loadout, self saline/blood, 500+ vehicles, donator perks, etc. For those of us that enjoy night play, there is hardly an alternative. I dare anyone on the board to find me a highly populated server that is on a night cycle. There has to be a legitimate reason why nobody is playing nights. The reason is: night play in DayZ's current state isn't attractive. There has been some tweaks to gamma/brightness, I see that. What I propose is lets turn the lights on and lock the time cycles on server owners/renters. If we start now, players will be well adjusted to it way before the game is officially finished. I'm talking Regular as well as Hardcore [as HC doesn't have lights currently]. I want to be clear on what sort of lights I'm referring to. I'm talking about street lights…turn every last one of them on. House lights [some not all] as well as tower lights would ne nice as well. But if I couldn't have all three and had to choose, I would vote for street lights. I had all three of these on my mod server and night play was perfect. Just enough light to get around and loot in the cities. Countryside, your on your own. But if you stayed on or near the streets, you had light to guide you. For starters, this will eliminate anyone looking to exploit gamma/brightness as having lights on will foil the advantage. Secondly, it flat out looks awesome. You get an authentic feel of what the night brings…ambiance, uncertainty and fear. I don't know about you, but 24/7 day is complete rubbish and takes away what DayZ is supossed to be, look and feel like. Thoughts?

Question still remains, will we actually get a helicopter in the SA :) As far as i know, its not confirmed yet, only that we get "vehicles" but not which type and what not hehe. Exciting times ahead indeed hehe.

I think you will get the best experience out of it, that way, and at the same time be an active participant in the development of the game :) And you can expect vehicles in the SA to be way more complex then they are in the mod, thats basicly why we dont have them yet hehe.

Thank you. I will start with the SA. Then I'll go on some Mod servers and play with some of my friends who already have the Mod, fight, use helicopters. :D Then when SA will get helicopters and other vehicles I'll move to it, and will only play on the Mod for the stuff SA doesn't have yet, or to play with those friends. I actually wanted to do that in the start, too.

Its entirely up to your "needs and wantings" mate :) Theres a giant difference from the mod to the SA, the mod is generally alot easier and focused more on PVP. The SA seems to be harder, when it comes to survival, with far less weapons, no vehicles and no respawning loot yet :) Im gonna have to say i would start with SA, if i were you, simply because its the game with the most potential and its still in early development, so theres a long way to go, + its alot more fun to be part of the development process, then just playing the mod, which will never hit a final stage anyway :) It might be the hardest to start with SA, but its by far the most rewarding experience tbh, as obtaining items in the mod is a joke, with little to no challenge attached.

Yeh the mod is basicly a giant pvp clusterfuck, with 1000 vehicles on each server, you start with a fully geared toon and theres no challenge in the survival at all. So if you want big guns, lots of cars and pvp till you puke, go for the mod :) If you want to try and survive in a harsh world, with little to no resources, go for the SA :)

Hello, my name is CH4OS, I am one of the founders of Quantum Warfare/Quantum Gaming. We'd like to announce our official release of our Epoch server. We support our server with a well funded great team of coders,admins, and scripters. Our current focus is to get clans going on this server to rival against each other and have fun. We'll appreciate any support we get, we are very friendly , until you take our beans! Auto Refuel Indestructible Bases Increased Vehicles action menu building snapping debug custom buildings strip clothing Donator Load-outs Safe Zone Traders As50 and M107 Increased weapons Towing Self Blood-Bag DayZ Epoch : 192.95.33.51:2322 Teamspeak 3: 2503291.ts3.mpgs.co

I would like to play 3pp also, but the camera is so exploitable, I think the only think Warz did better than Dayz is making a much less exploitable 3pp camera. It will become more exploitable I think, when using vehicles like in arma 3, camera will be floating 20 meters above the vehicle.

I am well-aware of that fact :) Many of these vehicles were originally produced in those countries even though they were part of Soviet Union back then so I wouldn't specifically count them as Russian machinery even though Russians developed them. Most of them are significantly improved over original models which were not known by their reliability so could as well say that successful units still originate from these few post-soviet countries. Also, I stated in my post that yes, most of the light weaponry is Russian originated but there are variety of firearms in use. As of now, I do agree and admit my mistake that most of light weaponry as of assault rifles, machine guns and pistols are Russian-made. It will take time for army that big to adapt such radical change in their weaponry in short time but the adaption is indeed in progress. E# As for "army that big" I mean it is not like giving new weapons for platoon and deal is done. The adaption requires adequate technicians, ammunition supplies, training for every single soldier and ability to preserve the ability of defence while doing that. Also, spare parts are needed. I must again apologize for off-topic. :(

http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/217yyp/why_is_dayz_so_inefficient_in_processing/cgaktw0 I'm not a reddit user so I decided to do a topic here about this and client side optimization. So we have heard that the buildings could do some optimization and now we have learned that it's the interior proxies that aren't optimized well. Rocket mentions the buildings aren't the only thing so I wonder what those other client side optimizations could be? Building proxies can bring some fps but there must be something else that brings the fps down in cities because if you port cherna+ in Arma 3 and play alone in the editor the fps is very good in cities compared to DayZ. Or has Arma 3 already some proxy optimization so it won't be hard to do in DayZ? So what could be the other thingsthat bring the fps down in client side? Is it the thousands of items that also aren't optimized? At least in Arma when you put many vehicles and other stuff around you the fps comes down. Or is it the server-client relationship that still isn't well optimized in DayZ, though it should be? I just like to hear some more answers from the devs if possible because I'm pretty sure it isn't the building proxies that is the biggest fps hog unless Arma 3 engine can somehow optimize those and DayZ can't yet. New architecture should allow client to run DayZ like Arma alone in the editor but in towns this is far from the truth so something else isn't right. At least I'd like to get an answer are those proxies differently optimized in DayZ and Arma 3?

Much of their equipment was made in Ukraine yes... USSR Ukraine. Also the Ukrainian weapons are in no way adapted to NATO standards, they are normal 5.45 and 7.62x54r weapons. And some of their stuff may be considered Ukrainian made, but most of it are heavy upgrades of old vehicles (such as there best tank which are just USSR era T-64's heavily upgraded, BTRs are much the same.)

I'm looking for a Chernarus epoch server with NO SAFEZONES, destructible bases or indestructible+decay, no donator perks/bases/crap, WITH PEOPLE, with not very overpowered AI missions (by overpowered I mean I don't want to clear it with an m4, loot it and end up with an m107), with snapbuild if possible (not very important), with TOW (merlin and trucks), no deploy bike/heli crap, no 400k vehicles/helicopters, no custom loot if possible (getting into the 1st firestation you see and again, ending up with an m107), no death messages like X killed by Y at 1km with an M107 Overview of the most important aspects: -NO OVERPOWERED DEATH MESSAGES -NO SAFEZONES; -Destructible bases OR indestructible with decay; +15 people regularly (the more, the better); -NO 400k custom barracks, spawns 360 noscope stuff; -No overpowered loot; -No 500k vehicles/helis; -No donor crap. SERVERS WITH APPROXIMATE SETTINGS ARE WELCOME THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!

Me and my group that has been together for over 10 years met two people like this in the mod and have been hanging with them for over a year now. One of them we were all cruising down the road like a bike gang on bicycles and saw him running down the road so we all started circling him trying to run him over and he started talking to us and we started talking back; and then a giant ass explosion (probably one of the biggest in DayZ histry) happened like just out of our sight so we all run over even this new guy and it was some hackers "base" who had just teleported every single vehicle on the server, including the boats and choppers (this was on a super vehicle server too), and like 99% of them had blown up and he killed himself. We then played with this new guy for a bit longer, got into one of the like 2 vehicles that hadn't blown up, and eventually invited him onto our coms and he became our friend. The other one was a friendly who didn't have his gun out and I was a new spawn so I ran up and pretended I couldn't talk and was crouched shaking my head yes and no to his questions. I was then secretly sneaking into his backpack on the inventory screen and found a handy little M1911 and some ammo and stole it and robbed him with his own gun. He thought this was hilarious and so did I as it was a complete spur of the moment I wonder if this will work thing so I started playing with him and eventually invited him in too. We've been happily "accidentally" killing each other and robbing newbs ever since.

Well we officially have our OWN custom new craftable building items....theyre fuckin sweet! http://www.reduxgamers.com/build/ And lots of new vehicles and weapons being added this week...

Well my friend....the only thing on the list that you wouldn't like is indestrucible bases..but the way some people build on our server are just plain retarded. We are a militarized server (no tanks/jets/gunships) but there's more than enough military hardware to grief someones base and/or vehicles. The AI missions are the typical building supplies/weapons/etc...but we currently have the MAAWS spawning at chopper crashes...as well as bringing back the good ol' AS50s and M107s...we also have a laundry list of military vehicles.... Towing and lifting is active...as are self blood bags...and we have Sector D...our custom AI island with 2 urals full of shit but also an assload of AI..its Epoch Panthera...and we are the Redux Gamers Community... http://www.reduxgamers.com/ The TS link AND the Gametracker link are on there...I think you guys would make an EXCELLENT addition to our server.

You are a criminal sentenced to death in a prison called "No. 13 Deepsea prison". Due to a mistake made by the supplying & supporting department of the prison, a kind of zombie virus was brought to the prison and caused a serious chaos, in which many people have died and became zombies. However, fortunately during the chaos, you took a weapon from a guard and planning to take a safe boat back to the coast. Nevertheless, because of the lack of food and fuel, you passed out during your journey and ended up floating to a different coast, and that is Chemarus. Chemarus has already shifted away from the real world; it has its own system. Now, do you choose to be a refreshed good man, or do you choose to continue being evil? The story is waiting for you to end...

Versace Gaming's DayZ Epoch Chernarus | God Mode Trader Cities | More Barracks & Buildings | Tow & Lift | Auto Refuel | Full Moon Nights | 3 HR Restarts | Looking for Staff | Daily Updates Owner: Versace Maxy Staff Members: [RECRUITING] Epoch Server IP: 146.185.23.130:3340 Website: http://versace-gaming.enjin.com Versace Gaming's Epoch Server gives you a great taste of what Epoch can bring you. There are constantly Admin's online on the DayZ Epoch Server. You can bring your friends on to the server & one of the admins will give you a group starter pack for you & your friends. Play the server constantly? You may become a staff member. ;) Every Week we give out items to constant/loyal players as they've been consistent on the server. The Owner "Versace Maxy" hopes you have a great time on the server & feel free to kill anyone you see :).

Yes id like to have mini games on medical system like removing bullets from body. Sewing open wounds. But organ transfer is little bit too much :D Also repairing vehicles can have some mini games too. but my favourite would be weapon reloading mini game. :D if we need to click and drag something on screen for reloading rifles or pistols.(ıts already like that but you got my point ) It would be more hardcore experience while in unexpected gunfight. For now every character on server acts like delta force operative i mean knows all medical treatments, able to use all weaponry and will be able to repair and fly helicopters.

techincally the player skins and the weapon ballistics are new but seriously now that i think about it zombie skins = same but slighlty updated zombie ai = same but slighlty updated zombie gltiching = same but worse zombie ghosting = even worse than the mod world textures = same but slightly updated vehicles = ported from arma 3 item textures = mostly ported from arma 3 weapon textures = mostly ported from arma 3 animations = mostly same but updated upcoming physics = being copied from arma 3 hunting = virtually the same as the mod but simpler a lot of stuff WILL be original content, but right now not so much

i'd say beta is the price hike time right now it could use a 10% off sale to boost before hunting and vehicles are concretely implemented hehe

I got over 150 followers lately and shure, most of them i owe to Dean Rocket Hall twitterpost. I am very grateful to that. So i made this thank-you-pic for your support. I hope you'll like it. I'm a bit into Hotrods, or like in this case Rat rods. I think it would be awesome, if we could build some vehicles in the game like in the Madmax movies. I also know it is to much to ask. But wouldn't that be great? Thank you pals!

<p>It doesn't work. Changes in the skeleton and such mean that getting into Arma vehicles with the DayZ character turns you into a stretched monster with millions of arms and faces. Its not just "Add it back in"</p> <p>And its not like they will be everywhere, anyway.</p>
