I totally agree with you, there is no good vanilla servers on the mod anymore, every server you go in will have 5000 vehicles spawned, with a military grade starting gear.. and most crowded servers will have donator features as well. I do enjoy private hives and the ability to slightly modify the mission file ..but the community has abused this in the mod and I don't see why they wouldn't in the Standalone. That being said, I miss the good old days where there wasn't 400 sub mods of DayZ and heavily modified mission files on the Vanilla version. :(

Hello, ive been thinking about this for a while, and what they should add in future for vechicles, i was thinking about finding a car from e.g balota and collecting its parts, or just finding a vechicle that can be used instantly, being able to put locks in them, attach guns, machetes ( for damaging players) bulletproof windows/ doors, basically making out of a terrible car, a tank pretty much, making, customizing your car with more seats, specific engines and attaching guns like in the military vehicles in real life, ive never played the mod so i dont know if this is in the other dayz but im pretty sure it isnt, also transporting players lets say in the back of the vehicle, the storage part, so if they are prone and lets say someone is shooting the car and they are taking heavy fire, the person at the back could crouch look out through window and start firing back at them, or attaching a m4 or light machiene gun (if they add one in future) to the cars to protect them selves. It's what ive been thinking for a while and should be worth talking about, because im looking towards base building, and vehicles the most in this game. Thanks for reading this.

Holy crap, I didn't even know it was that far off the coast. Yeah no way in Hell they would make a bridge to Utes. Yeah, there's no real way to get to it so they took it out, otherwise they'ed have zombies and items just lagging up the server for no good reason. I've heard conflicting things, that they're not going to put it back in, and that they're going to put it back in when they add in air vehicles and boats.

Hey Y'all try our newly opened private hive servers and discover secret sites to add in your dayz experience... Many vehicles still available at spawn sites...

Introducing the new EGL Epoch Server Server IP and Port: 173.234.239.138:2302 Version: 1.0.4.2 Website: http://eternalgaminglounge.enjin.com/home Have fun Listen to the head admin she knows what she is talking about Real Economy Precious items at the traders will only be replaced infrequently. We want players to loot/sell/buy into to the traders. This will keep items rare and encourage players to look for materials instead of buying. This is a world still recovering and thus there are no Walmarts in this world. Environment is dangerous We all know zombies are not the primary threat in Dayz. To make the world more dangerous we’ve placed in very tough AI. We have four types. o Static mission AI o Dynamic mission AI o Dynamic roaming AI o Roaming Armored SUVs with 4 AI passengers These AI will flank, will use suppression as a tactic and are downright aggressive. Most encountered will have M2 machine guns for support and some carry RPG7s to counter players running them over. Be prepared to die more often than typical servers to the environment. If you want a challenge with the environment our server is for you. Encourage collaboration The static mission AI is very tough. We rotate the mission every so often to freshen things up. The purpose of this type of mission is to make it so tough you will need help from other survivors to complete. The reward for succeeding is really good loot. Remove or alleviate Epoch quirks Let’s face it Dayz Epoch can be a grind. We’ve included the following features to make the game go a little easier. The server isn’t hard core and we never intend it to be. Most people have a finite time to play and during that time we want people to have their heart pumping. We feel these help in making their time enjoyable. o Self-blood bag o Auto refuel/repair/reload o Deploy Bike o Domes o Extra Vehicles o No plot poles and no decay Server Performance We constantly via script cleanup locked vehicles with no keys and remove structures left over by inactive players. These are done via script. We are not a high population server but as the population grows we’ll throttle the AI in relation to the active player size so that performance remains high. PVP We encourage PVP because the world is dangerous. Be smart about where you base and travel. Precious items at the traders will only be replaced infrequently. We want players to loot/sell/buy into to the traders. This will keep items rare and encourage players to look for materials instead of buying. This is a world still recovering and thus there are no Walmarts in this world.

A simple thing like randomizing player spawn points would do wonders to change the pacing of the game. Setting it on the coast is the biggest flaws of this game. because that makes the game completely linear and predictable. Everybody runs to the towns to loot and most never venture inland at all. They only will once vehicles become availible. They also need to give characters meaning. Let us learn skills from all those books. Let us have Power Stations we can bring back on line. Green Mountain radio stations we can control. Let us search around bases and medical facilities for story lore. Give us custom features for chars so we get attached to the way our char looks and junk. DayZ needs to grow from being a mod into a game. It still feels like a mod. WHERE IS THE ART DIRECTION? The no.1 that makes great games is art direction. What is the story you're trying to tell? Why is the character in this world? What must the character do to overcome thier struggles. Make the player feel like they have an impact and its not just counterstrike on a really big map

Those pictures are not of any official AK for the Standalone that i know of. There are a lot of relic items left over from Arma though, vehicles and such which will never make it into the game as they are all being redone. Have no fear the mighty AK will make an appearance soon enough.

There will most certainly be vehicles in future updates since there were vehicles and sometimes airplanes & helicopters in DayZ Mod on Arma 2.

I used to axe locked vehicles on Epoch to do the same thing on night servers.. ..people would come from km around to see what the noise and fire was.. only to find my rounds quickly exiting through their brain housing. ;)

Anyone know Why battleye acted wierd after the update of experimental? Had loads of spams and loads of game crashes as well. Do you think Vehicles,wildlife will be bugfree and ready for end date? Are you crazy to think that they don't need to be tested, freaking hats and masks are even buggy as hell and takes ages to get fixed. Zombie count even not enough and servers are struggling with performance issues along with clients without core features. Do you really know how things really works? Because it seems you are the one Who have no idea. Everything needs to be tested and should be in Alpha and the Beta, so you can actually see if they work or not before the official release. So hence the guy that you were flaming had a better point than your crappy buttlicking.

Since there are currently no Vehicles and not a lot of endgame we have been forced to create our own endgame content! Come One Come All to the DayZ Electro Fight Club!

Nah, from my experience (since july 2012) in the mod, and my time spent in DayZero... The mod was fine early on but now it has very little legitimate players left. The mod is rife with ESP map hackers because there is no way of defeating that hack. So they will always know where you are, where all the vehicles are, and where all the zombies are. So you'll find them helicoptering around scooping all the vehicles and crash sites. Which of course leads to them hunting everyone else down... Its not very fun.

Hey Jimmy, yes i wrote this in anger after being repeatedly dumped on by US3480, however it IS a good server, it has many players and some of them are quite fun to play with. Yet i keep getting my vehicles teleported from me after restart, even though i stop the car way before and i even tried saving it multiple times and i honesty swear the server did keep crashing. I am fond of vehicles in game and i use them alot, so after getting killed by hackers i quit for awhile (made this forum post) When i returned i brought some friends, and after a few hours we get killed by a hacker (no doubt) The reason why i said that you did not care about combat loggers is because i asked you ingame why there wasn't anything done about it (at that point i had 700 hours played on AWA and had no idea how official servers worked) and you simply replied that there was nothing that could be done and that you really didn't care about combat loggers, stating that the only people that cared about such things were KOS bandits. Usually i am not a KOS bandit but i still hate them, i do care about finishing my kills if i otherwise engage. Another thing is rank of official servers does not interest, well because i think that alot of players don't give two sh*ts about the server they play on simply because they hang around a hospital roof in elektro and are quite content with a server that's packed of other elektro/cherno campers or bambies, but that's just my own opinion of it and i know that alot of people will disagree. On a different note i did enjoy your server to a certain extent, and i enjoyed our little talks when i was suggesting something and i am sorry for rushed words in OP. When the server stops taking my vehicles i will surely come back, and i will bring the group of players i play with daily (if we will not have found a private hive) I want to thank everyone for the replies, and if anyone can point me to a private hive i will be in their debt Last i want to say again that the server i am looking for can not be overly enhanced, some one replied to me by PM a server that was so full of modded stuff (self bb, AS50's) I am surpised that it isn't a mod with it's own name like epoch and all that

Hi So i have been playing on AWA for like 7 months, but after the Standalone came out it died and is now being shut down. So i am looking for a private hive Vanilla or Enhanced Vanilla server (not overly enhanced, AWA had only a few added things) I tried playing on an official server called US 3480, but that is poorly optimized (lag, disappearing vehicles, owner that does not care about combat logging etc etc) plus it has frequent hackers and crashes. So if anyone can point me to a populated server i would be very happy. Now some of you might be wondering, why doesn't he just play the Standalone? Well i did, i tried everything and checked out all the new places, and i had enough of it. The Standalone needs more content for me, so i am going to wait until they add more stuff ( most likely until they add vehicles or more weapons, which won't happen for a year or so i think ) I would appreciate it if people would keep it on subject, and not go arguing about the Standalone Thank you P.S We are like a group of 4-5 that will be moving to the server that gets our attention

That's if they do batching. Occlusion culling is very delicate balancing act between what you can gain from the occlusion and what you lose testing for occlusion. By experience it just doesn't work properly when there is a lot of objects as potential occluders. DayZ (and the rv engine in general) could probably benefit from autobillboards but there might be technical reasons as to why they aren't doing it yet (air vehicles?).

@ricp: first i wanted to answer with the same "sarcasm" i saw it is used here a lot... then i have reconsidered. here is my answer... first of all i do thank you for your input. but that was NOT a debate. i just wanted to post 2 of my ideas and i was'nt doing for the sake of arguing. period. second: i do suggest that you should use a NVG at least once. if you think that it transforms night into day (with no down side) then you seem to have used one that not even US army have yet. if you don't have one at hand right now, do the following test: take a toilet paper cardboard tube, stick it to your eye and go outside in daylight and try to live like that in a city for an hour. that will suffice. people generally tend to think that NVG in real life are behaving like NVG in pc games. they have a lot of downsides you know...go outside with one on the country side and with a cloudy night, in a forest you will be blind literally. right... you will be better with a flashlight. i have the latest gen3 SFK model (special forces kit) with tube made in december 2012 and believe me it is not the same as walking outside in daylight, even if i just have to consider the field of view not to mention light issues/resolution. third: since this is a survival game/exercise how come you people are so selective? there are helicopters alowed to be had (later i presume) and all sort of weapons and vehicles in a post apocalyptic world but the NVG are not around ???(these are INCREDIBLE simple devices although expensive because of the intensifier itself but very very hard to break). Even Russia (where the action takes place) have A LOT of last generation NVG and even if they do not compare 1:1 with latest ITT and L3 tubes they are still good and efficient. I suppose the place should not be a problem since a lot of US technology made it up in the game anyway... last: if this game is about a scenario in a post-apocalyptic world i think those who just said NO should think about the rest of the things that should be "NO" in this game. all the firearms for that matter... it is harder to find a firearm than to find a NVG. in real life that is... later edit: @Rickenbacker thank you. those were my youth days... i am very much alive and seems to stay that way now...

1. PVE servers 2. Base Building 3. Vehicles 4. Dogs 5. Bow

1: Working Vehicles (any would be fine) - Yes i mean Any type of moving vehicle, skateboard, why not, kickbike why not ? 2: More types of Food, Drinks (larger onces) big juice cans for example and big can of beans or whatever :P and bacon! 3: More zombies 4: More weapons and gear 5: More clothing

Let's see, what do i want to see the most... 1. Performance issues and bugs fixed (i know that's all being worked on already) 2. Vehicles and Vehicle attatchments (who wouldn't want a top mounted mini gun on a firetruck? Don't forget the plow on the front!) 3. Persistent Storage (like tents and such) 4.Player constructions/bases ( that you can put all that persistent storage in :P ) 5. Zombie hordes!!!! I'm talking World War Z style. B)

Not entirely true. All firearms have their strengths and weaknesses.A .50 round has the kinetic force to tear a person in half and is intended to destroy a vehicles engine block, while used in extreme range sniping it has limitations of not being a go to firearm in any stance but prone, not being a great choice for close range combat. A .45 has incredible stopping power at a short distance and can deliver multiple rounds on target in a split second dropping a target that may have otherwise been able to react 5.56 vs 7.62 assault rifles (eg: m4 vs ak) 5.56 being smaller and faster will hit a fleshy target and the tail end of the round will fold over the tip causing a large cavity, however requires more hits on modern body armor to defeat it. 7.62 being a larger and slower round will tumble and pass through the body causing less internal injury, requires less hits on modern body armor to defeat it. Other DMR or bolt action platforms use the larger rounds because their barrel length adds much more velocity = higher kinetic transfer. The platform is designed for precision shooting and is able to deliver rounds to head, heart, upper spinal column much more accurately

Yea, i used to go up north all the time in the mod. Thanks for the feedback too, i'll check it out. I was thinking about using the shadowplay, will give me a few extra frames too instead of using a heavy recording program. Once they add vehicles into DayZ i think people will explore more to the North and the action will be up there.

1. Better, Skyrim style melee(because fighting zombies is really awkward) 2. Base building and barricading (for something to do when you're geared) 3. More zombies and zombie swarms (but only if they improve melee) 4. Hunting (because I like to shoot things but don't want to KOS) 5. Vehicles. (because running for ten minutes to get anywhere is a pain in the hole)

I dont even care if they dont completely redo vehicles, judging by the vids above they suit the game fairly well
