I don't disagree, my point is that as long as you have multiple spawn locations and they are random, people are going to suicide till they get together. Giving people a timeout for that is a shitty way to curve the behavior. I'm of the opinion that any system in a game that punishes you by not letting you play at all is a pretty lousy approach though. Introductions of other methods to meet up would be better, ie Vehicles. I dunno what you mean by in the past, but since the mod people have always suicided to meet up.

They barely work and are definitely not ready for the standalone. I ran into quite a few crashes and bugs testing them on a .42 server yesterday. The video that OP referenced is from the Kortal servers. It's a cracked server version of dayz and the cars "function" on .42. In all honesty, we're going to be much happier waiting for vehicles to be done right rather than forcing them into the game.

Thank god. Still, was nice to see that vehicles work sorry, exist, and just see something to keep the dream alive

When I saw videos of people driving vehicles in the standalone, I wanted to figure out doing it myself so I did just that. You use basic arma tools to unpack the pbo's/bins/mission files, edit them with a text editor, then repack the pbo's etc. This is how you also see dayz mod servers with custom content and scripts on them. I wouldn't call it hacking what so ever.

Also, the vehicles only work on version .42 as far as driving them is concerned. In .43 they cut out a huge chunk of data in the vehicles_wheeled.pbo that enabled the use of vehicles. They will only spawn as static objects in .43. This method also only works if you are setting up a private lan server using a cracked .28 executable.

we shud jump in one of these vehicles from the video, and drive this thread to the graveyard :P

Yeah, not legit. They either play on a cracked/modded SA server, or they loaded Arma2/3 vehicles into DayZ and tweaked around a bit. They're going to redo vehicles completely, so that your car won't blow up because you got stuck on a rock or glitched on a bridge. That and so we can Mad Max em a bit (put some Ural fenders on a Skoda!)

People will believe anything. We all know it's going to take Dean 8 more months to give us pedal bikes, let alone 75 fully functional vehicles. Hah.

All he did was port over the vehicles from Arma 3 and the modding community over there. He also just downloaded one of the mods that changes UI and HUD to the one from Standalone. Even though he clearly failed since he left in the some of the Arma 3 UI in the video. xD

All he has been done is import vehicles from Arma 3. That's the easy part.

I couldn't remember if it was the brits or not. It's a DLC I wish I had when I played A2, though; the BAF had cooler vehicles. :( And the L115. And the Mk48 Para which had some weird complicated number-name but was pretty cool.

Personally if they stopped development and just fixed the bugs, I could still have fun with this game. It might even feel like too much with vehicles and bases. I like simple survival, lone wolf for the most part. But that's just me.

An interesting idea but you can pretend your buds are your family ;) ... Besides once hunting, temperature system, barricading, building, restoring power via generators and constant storage + vehicles are in there will be no "getting bored" :)

Yes there will be plenty of custom servers set up like you want... but ARMA3 Breaking Point mod is already set up like that. Almost. Spawning in with weapons and vehicles is fun, sure- but is agaist the spirit of what DayZ SA represents. Once it's moddable (say, this time next year, maybe), you'll be able to do what you wan, but til then you'll have to suffer with running everywhere and wishing you had a melee weapon.

I make videos on youtube. My quality for DayZ is pretty good (can be improved through modifying some things post-production). I think making a DayZ Machinima would be pretty epic. I have a few IRL friends that would be involved, and I'd be looking for people here that would like to participate also. Don't expect compensation please. I make ~$50 a month off youtube. If the series managed to take off, then I'd suggest future projects in which compensation might be possible. As for now, you'd just be in it to be a part of it. DayZ has so many Machinima openings. It's still being updated and when vehicles are introduced, that would greatly increase the tools we have. Also, private servers. It's just a thought for now. Feel free to PM me on here for my channel (to see quality) and for my Skype to talk about it, or just post here.

It's a lovely helicopter, but why the hell would there be one in the Chernarussian Air Force? The only vehicles should be relevant to the scene - Mi8 / Mi17s.

My skype: forever.night2 If you wanna contact me just add me and i will try and respond quickly.

I cant believe no one has suggested it, but here it goes. I would love to see a working freight train. It could be a great vehicle to escort bambis. It would also make a focal point for fighting other than the towns. Could cause a police force type cooperation to happen, as well as a more organized bandit force. You could spawn in and see which faction has control of it. It would make a reason for people to team up. Hero's and bandits alike. I also like the idea of the older vehicles that are already modeled in game too. I just keep thinking how awesome it would be with a functional train carrying a few box cars.

Still Active and playing, stop on by for details ts3.4thspecialforces.com This is the 4th Special Forces Group Challenging all Milsim / Bandit Groups out there in DayZ Epoch. If you and your group thinks you have what it takes to assault others bases, survive on a map that you can barely find weapons on ( requires you to actually look and stock up on ) and go against elite DayZ KOS units or even those Care Bear Units that want to help the Pubbers, Then come on to the DayZWars Server on the EPOCH MOD. Show us what you got, get killed or even cry your way out of the server? I personally challenge you units to come and Fight. Server is up but will have more stuff added to it with Custom Bases and Auto Refuel. You'll have to fix your own vehicles though. If you want 15 choppers you'll have to earn it the hard way. Only the skilled dedicated player will do this. Do not need Cry Babies on the server. Come and get us, I don't think you have what it takes. ALL MILSIM AN OTHER UNITS SERVER WILL BE POPULATED WITH OUR UNIT and OTHERS ON APRIL 15th 2014. You are more than welcome to head on there now to start stocking up if need be before people get on. Because once we get on there We're killing all your asses. Good Luck and Let the WARS BEGIN. PS> We also have the Attack Littlebirds with Only Mini Guns on the server, for you pilots who think you can Fly. Heh Good luck pussies All units or groups that come on the server on the 15th will be given 5 Brief cases of gold to start with for free. A custom skin attached to their player ID's for their groups that way you can ID friendlies. That will only be on the 15th-18th on a first come first serve basis. Come to TS, for details ts3.DayZWars.com

We post no arguments because we believe people are not blind, but here, just some of them: 1. Loot only spawning on server restarts. 2. Zombies aggro randomly, still die when walking downhill, walk through doors, walls, objects. 3. Lack of any sort of persistent storage or vehicles. 4. Only few firearms availabale. 5. Ladders randomly killing people, people walking through objects/walls. 6. No animals, fireplaces and cooking. And that's just compared to the outdated, forgotten mod.

I have mixed emotions. On one side, I can't find in SA what made the mod the best MP experience I ever had. It might be that the map is pretty much the same, or the lack of endgame content like vehicles and tents, or the broken zombie AI. I dunno, but I can't feel it, and right now I feel like it will never reach to that point, at the rate we are getting updates. Something about the playerbase bothers me too, but it might be because of the current state of the game and might improve with time. On the other side, I like how the survival aspect has been expanded. But since release it hasn't been improved too much. So its all just a mather of waiting and see how it goes

What will be the first battle rifle in game? Any thoughts on that? I asked Chris Torchia on shitter (twitter) about FAL, but he didnt gave any specific answer. Like you said: "Battle rifles could possibly be used as potent anti-vehicle weapons.". So, until we get any vehicles, they can wait.

I appreciate that the over-Coastal focus of SA has been discussed many times before but I wanted to raise the issue of how the NE looks like it is receiving too much attention from the devs, instead of inland areas, especially atm with current patches. The issue of the coastal focus of the game has been raised a lot and we've been told that once vehicles come in then the map will be opened up much more. However, it still doesn't look like the devs take this seriously. Especially when we see that in the latest and upcoming updates we've had Chernaya-Polana and Karmanovka added to the NE, literally a stone's throw away from the airfield. Added with Svetlojarsk, this is really just shifting the focus of the game away from Cherno and Elektro (which is a good thing) but to just another coastal area. What is the point of the northern border of the map or central towns like the Sobors? There are either no people or no loot. In the mod the Sobors used to be serious hotspots but now there's literally no point when you've got so much stuff centralised around Berezino or Elektro. What do you guys think? Devs should be making some sweet military bases / kitted out towns in the central areas and maybe central-North?
