This server is awesome, tons of vehicles, and a lot of bases to loot and take. Ive been playing this server for a few weeks now and I havent had an issue yet. And the admins are very helpful.

We currently have 200+ vehicles. Soon to be 250+ or 300+ as needed. We have added a lot of structures and loot- spawning structures. Check out our custom base with barracks west of Chupinka. or the barracks on the Airfield at Pista or the new industrial zone north of Calamar. Maruka has been extensively updated. The list of additions goes on and on. We are adding more content weekly. No over-powering vehicles. Admins are trusted members of our gaming community. No one paid to become an admin. Shenanigans from admins are not allowed period. Admin abuse = admin gone... And the most important factoid: This server is not a rental with a month to month lease like vilayer or dayzst, etc. This server runs on our own hardware. It will not just evaporate or be shut down if an owner got bored or could no longer afford it. We all know what that is like, get on a good server play for a week or two , set up tents, get roots planted only to find that IP address no longer responds. And all that work and gear is gone. We understand that. Search for "Smacker" and choose SmackerCentral. Drop in. Gear up. Plop a tent down Kill some Zeds or some noobs. Enjoy.

I am willing to pay up to $15USD for it in its Alpha state. No tents, no vehicles, there is going to be a lot missing. If it is a $60 game in the end, I think 1/4th of the price is fair at Alpha release.

You are not going to get what you are looking for, simply because what you are looking for is a bunch of us to say, "Oh it's impossible it was found legitimately so it MUST have been a hacker." which is simply a lie. Here are a few ways someone could have found your helicopter: 1. They saw the direction you were headed the last time you flew it. Seriously. Many people set a way point and fly in a straight line toward their destination. With ONLY a compass if you are somewhere under their flight path you can get a rough heading and follow it. since most people go "as the crow flies" if they are headed toward the North and not something like NWAF they are likely headed home. Follow that path and you will probably find their camp. 2. They themselves were looking for an "out of the way" spot to set up camp. Seriously, this is one of the big reasons someone might be out in the middle of nowhere. When I want to set up camp and I am looking for a possible place to put a vehicle it is not in primary traffic lanes for the map. 3. They were "camp hunting" looking for vehicles. 4. They followed one of you back and waited for them to log off. 5. They stumbled across it. I had the happen once where I was trying to lose a zombie and tried to run through a set of trees and literally ran into a tent, as in "couldn't get around it and got hit by a zombie". I would never have seen that tent but for that. It really does happen that people are somewhere they normally wouldn't be because of some bizarre reason and stumble on things. Why would they take that and nothing else? 1. Very simply, "Helicopter! Oh wow! Crap I better not hang around long. I don't see anyone..." *panting as they run* "Holy crap! A helicopter, a helicopter! Outta here with my Helicopter!" They could have been literally so hyped up about taking the helicopter and so worried someone might be around that they ran straight to it and took off without checking he tents and other vehicles. 2. They did check the tents but you didn't have anything they needed. Maybe they did take something but it was so minor you didn't realize it. I know my friends and I don't track every bandage, 1911 mag, cooked mutton, Pepsi in our storage. 3. No one took it. Vehicles will sometimes despawn or will spawn in and then vanish. I had a ural that ended up overfull of stuff. One day it just vanished. We lamented the lose of the items and moved on. Then one day I was in camp during a server restart. I logged back in and our Ural was mysteriously there so I quickly grabbed a bunch of things out of it and hopped in and drove it like 2 meters then got out. It stuck around after that so the same thing might have happened to your helicopter. Sometimes on server resets the vehicle isn't placed exactly right and will bounce around and blow up. If you happened to be off for 2+ server resets your helicopter could have blown up and the wreck cleared.

I would say that for a 'safe zone' that's enforced by players you would need a clan dedicated to doing just that. Lets say a group takes over Balota airfield and uses that as their base (using one hanger to store vehicles they're selling, as well as stashes of items, with tents in between the two hangers protected by barbwire) My estimate is they would need at least 3 marksmen on duty at any time with one in the ATC tower and the others roaming/camping, and 1-2 players on the ground patrolling the area. That'd be 5 players just to protect the base, not counting any merchants or medics I would say you'd need a 'boss' as a floater. Now of course thous 6 are going to have to sleep at some point or another so you'd need additional shifts. If I had that sort of clan and I was in control of it, the bulk of my 'forces' would be tied up just defending the base, that's not counting pilots, scavengers, medics, and the like. And since I had an airfield I'd be actively using it, sending the scavenging teams and medics out via plane or heli.

MAKE: Any form of basebuilding, underground, above ground, modular, i dont care. Trying to find a nice set of trees to make an ATTEMPT to hide my stuff for atleast 1 hour before some lucky bastard flies over in a heli and sees it is getting VERY old. New reload animations for EACH INDIVIDUAL GUN! Comepletely redone sounds, weapon models, and vehicles. Redone stealth system that uses the actual Zed's eyes and the direction it's facing. (kinda like skyrim but not as overpowered :p) More STABLE (notice I said STABLE) offroad vehicles such as a UTV, buggy, sandrail, etc.. BREAK: Vehicles similar to what is currently in the mod. (The vehicles we have now are unrealistic and the guy who designed them needs to be punished >:( ) Same sounds and/or models from ARMA II Donator Perks Death Messages (ex. "[1337] LeGiTfOx has been killed by Bob at 259.83m" The same old m16/m4 reload animation *cringe* Pristine vehicles that dont belong (ex. the SUV) The action bar being like WarZ (I have only seen it in the videos Dean has put out. I kinda like the idea but if it is anything like what WarZ has (yes I did play WarZ to get a review on it) then SA is a no-go for me) These are my opinions :p

I know I was just using it as an example. the SUv can go much faster than the 115 kph that it is capped at. Edit: And my whole purpose of this is to make things like traveling and even car chases more realistic. It also requires you to be alert and pay attention, rather than how it is now. In the mod, if you can dodge barricades, it's just holding W and Shift 100% of the time from point A to B. Theres no "Oh ****! There's a barricade and I'm going 120 mph!". Then of course when you are going at those speeds, it causes more danger to you. in the mod today, I can go 70 mph roughly in the SUV and turn hard right and it'll just slide and stop. IRL, if you do that, good luck surviving the crash. All I'm getting at is there needs to be immersion with the new vehicles. Since ARMA II was more focused on infantry performance, the vehicles were cut short on detailing. ATM they feel like giant blocks with VERY little body roll and no concerns at all. They dont FEEL like a vehicle, they feel like lightweight trains on very firm tracks.

A shorter episode, this is the sad story of deaths taken, and vehicles stolen, for which there is only one answer.....BLOOD ORGY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MReIT5IWIo Give it a like/subscribe/comment/share if you enjoyed it!

Before we go ANY further, I'd like to point out that I'm NOT talking about the Alpha, I'm talking months after release into the beta and/or full release. Now that that's out of the way, I'd like to use this thread as a discussion of what you personally think will make or break standalone as a game, mainly feature-wise. Feel free to post your own lists and give feedback or criticism on others lists (constructive). Here's mine: Make: (Semi-)Intelligent Zombie AIZombies aren't supposed to be 'smart' technically speaking, they're undead corpses. However, zombies in the mod are arguably worthless and agreeably annoying. I stopped being actually scared by zombies a week or two after I started playing the mod. What I think would make the standalone oh so much sweeter to play, would be a total revamp of how zombies work. Give them a hive mentality (if on zombie catches on to you, others do as well), give them more bodily endurance (lean more towards traditional zombie headshots to kill), and buff their damage so that people DON'T have the chance to survive an all out horde attacking them. For far too long have we dealt with pathetic zombies that seem to be in the mod merely to add the Z to DayZ. Yes, I know that zombies ARE being worked on in SA... obviously. Pathing, attacking, and functionality will all be different, but the way it is handled I think will either make or break the Standalone. Rag-doll EffectsYes, rag-doll effects. IMHO it's a crucial element of us having an immersive experience. How many times do you see someone get shot in the head and just fall all silly like? Or the ever hilarious zombie deaths that look like bad acting in a Shakespearean play. This is a 2013/2014 game, rag-doll effects are crucial and the technology has been here for years now. Who could ever disagree with something like this? A serious Health/Crafting systemThis is probably one of the most important things on the list. We HAVE to have something realistic. The mod doesn't do too bad when it comes to getting shot, damage is relative to area. But now that we have a separate engine aside from Arma II, I really hope it'll go much more in depth. Same going with food and drink. Hopefully the devs will make it more realistic. Who actually (and realistically) needs to drink and eat every half hour??? Make food and drink less common, and increase the time in-between when you need to perform such actions to survive. As for crafting... it's pretty self explanatory. Knives attached to guns with the option to use them as a melee weapon on zombies or players, flashlights on any gun, modifying vehicles, all of that. You know all those games that say that they have an amazing crafting system, and then you can't put anything on anything and it's impossible to figure out what to put on what? Don't let this be one of those... let it be simple and easy, but at the same time unforgiving with downsides. Character Value/DegradationThis is a tough one. How to add value to a character without adding an elaborate (and unwanted) skill system. This one is gonna be totally up to the devs as to what is done. Item and clothing degradation will hopefully be done with some leeway towards the user. Whatever is done, we really need to see more focus on the character themselves instead of what they're holding or wearing. Break: Dealing with the same bugs as in the modThis is what the Alpha is for, grinding and polishing. Not a whole lot to be said in this case other than hopefully all the kinks will be SWIFTLY handled. Heavy Focus on PvPThe most obvious one on here. It's the thing that destroyed the original feeling of the mod, and it's what will destroy the atmosphere of the Standalone if something isn't done to quell it. DayZ wasn't meant to be solely player on player, it was meant for people to have interactions and survive their environment (by also killing each other, but not for sport). Lack of post-apocalyptic feelRoads should be cracked, buildings should have moss on them, rooms and walls having blood and trash strewn across them. It just won't feel like being in an apocalypse if it doesn't look like it's one. Nobody is there to maintain anything after all. A Bad Base Building SystemTents.... God awful tents... Nobody ever should have to use a tent to store anything ever again... That's all from me for now. Feel free to share your lists or criticisms. I know many of these things have already been addressed and even confirmed, but this is not a "will it be there?" list, this is just a discussion of what you hope will be in the game, and what would make you want or not want to play it.

Yeah, generally the servers with more PvP are the custom servers with way more guns and vehicles. Choosing a vanilla server (public or private hive) might help. It doesn't guarantee no PvP but there's way less chance of bumping into heavily armed players with more ammo than they know what to do with.

You think it's the large, populated cultures with easy access to food and medicine that act the most morally? There's empirical evidence to show otherwise. Small tribes of people between 80-150 population tend to have virtually zero crime and are mostly violence free. Large populated cultures tend to be more violent, as it's easier to be anonymous and easier to become emotionally disconnected from your peers. In a tribe/group of 150 people who all know one another, one person can't kill another without knowing them rather intimately, which would (in non-sociopaths) cause a deep emotional reaction. This emotional reaction to taking the life of someone you know and rely upon for your own survival is indication enough that human beings inherently know the difference between "right" and "wrong". It's not a religious issue, or a legal issue. It's called "Humanity" for a reason. Humans are mammals and mammals are creatures with feelings/emotions. Let's take your scenario where there's only 2 men.. And now place them in a survival situation. If you, 1 man, kill your "friend" in this survival situation, you have literally cut the odds of your own survival in half. That's punishment enough. See, the problem with people like you is not that you are immoral or "wrong". It's that you're short sighted and stupid. Yeah, you may gain a weapon or two, or some night vision goggles, or a better back-pack, or a vehicle, or WHATEVER.. But in the long run, you have lost another set of eyes, another set of hands, and overall a resource which simply doesn't respawn every 15 minutes at hundreds of locations around the map: A FRIEND. Someone who you can trust to cover your ass. So, yes, you ARE punished. You punish yourself. What do you win, exactly? You've preemptively killed someone who may in the long run kill you, and.. what? You got their gear and lost a potential friend and teammate? Backpacks, guns, vehicles, tents, and everything else can all be replaced in a few hours. I can fully gear my character rather quickly. How quickly can you earn the trust of a friend? That takes days, and sometimes weeks. In the long run, it's more beneficial for both parties to be trustworthy and treat one another with respect so that you may double your effectiveness. That said, I agree that the game should not arbitrarily punish people for being assholes. You punish yourselves badly enough.

This is not true! It's been weeks since the last time i ran into a server like that. You must be looking at the wrong kind of server. "1000+ vehicles, etc."

Updates: ☼ Added new vehicles to resistance camp traders to include : Tungaska tank, BMP tanks, and an AAV. ☼ Added Meat Market exchange at resistance camp Alpha. Some trader will trade only certain cooked meat for supplies. With the meat market exchange you can trade chicken for beef, mutton etc....and vice versa. ☼ Added base building supplies drops to Mission AI.

You actually consider that post a legitimate response? Clearly It completely deserved a TROLOL post from the chive, from the sarcastic mocking wordplay used to change my words into your interpretation of what you think im posting about. Did you even read it? It is a complete mockery of ALL facts stated in the thread. I dont even think you read the thread because if you look at the facts so far of the type of populated server I play on, along side the other small factors of knowing certain vehicle spawns and character traffic on the server, you would have some understanding where Im coming from. I am looking to gain guidance from other peoples experiences with disappearing vehicles, and maybe some understanding from the admin side of things since I dont know what kind of things a server owner\admin can and cannot do. I am not looking to hear the same fucktard response that "Oh your stuff can always be found especially a helicopter, your a nub, blah blah" That is why I had originally stopped responding to the thread realizing that I wasnt going to get what I was looking for, and until that ignorant response had done so.

Stakeland.net -will be wiping the server once the Epoch 1.0.2.4 update is released to have a fresh database. So before this update and wipe occurs we will be hosting an epic event...

Bumping as higher tier military vehicles with gear are now randomly spawned around the map in military zones! I.E. Vodniks, Humvees, Armored Technicals (PK Pickups and Special Ops Trucks)

And here we see just how mature you are. You respond to a legitimate post by calling its author "ignorant" and a "troll" just to diminish the point they are making, without even really saying anything. Well allow me to put personal matters aside for a moment and just look at facts (facts that have already been stated in this thread): Helicopters are impossible to hide from hackers just like everything else, but also incredibly difficult to hide from players who use legitimate methods to look for helicopters. This includes using multiple people to check a larger area (canvassing), using another helicopter to search for yours due to how trees and other obstructions render at further distances and certain angles, and checking areas where choppers are more likely to be based on others already putting their vehicles there. I think I should add that you STILL have not told us where you had put the chopper so we could tell you whether it was a good place or not. I'm thinking that you probably put it on the edge of the map in the woods thinking it was a spectacular hiding place and NO ONE would ever find it. If you did that, then just know that that is a terrible place to put it. In fact, just about any place is a terrible place to put it due to the fact that players roam through many areas of the map all the time, either because it is along the path between two points of interest, or because it is far away from those as to be an expected place to not be found (ironic, I know). So basically what I'm trying to say is if you lost your chopper, You can come to the forums to complain about it, but when people try to give you legitimate tips and constructive criticism you shouldn't deny any of their help at all like a child would because your pride is hurt. Also, if you really want help you'll tell us where you put it, but I would understand if you didn't want to do that for secrecy reasons (even though we don't know what server you play on). Oh well, just my two cents. >using "le" in title >calling someone who disagrees with them "ignorant" and a "troll" >posting a video from The Chive >said video contains the "trololo" meme > :emptycan:

Now that we've finally got a handle on the stupid DDoS problems we've had some time to actually work on new features. Today I'm happy to announce a couple new features, Live map tool updates! - Now any changes you make using the web map tool will now happen in-game immediately without requiring a server restart. Below are some examples of this. Spawning and deleting vehicles: http://i.imgur.com/8ss1Iwf.jpg http://i.imgur.com/5NF8dMf.jpg Editing player inventories: http://i.imgur.com/l1EkwWy.jpg http://i.imgur.com/OmNW37H.jpg Healing players: http://i.imgur.com/DMrZL54.jpg Repairing and refueling vehicles: http://i.imgur.com/Ltkzlnf.jpg And also announcing the ability to teleport players and vehicles. Simply click and drag a player or vehicle on the map tool to the desired destination and they will be teleported ingame. There are some caveats: These changes require you to revert to default pbo's to enable. You can see the changes we made if you extract the default pbo and compare them. We will post a writeup on exactly what's changed in the wiki later.It only works on DayZ 1.8 and DayZ Epoch right now, we are working on adding additional maps - Overwatch will be next.Anytime you perform an admin action on the map there will be a global message in-game telling everyone what action was performed - this is to combat admin abuse.We hope to be bringing you guys more new features in the near future since we finally have some free time to work on other things.

Remember those servers that were just standard DayZ and that if you played between those ones your character would be carried over between them, and they were always on 24/7? I literally scrolled down for like 15 minutes and all I could see were these crappy servers or Private ones that didn't have character carryover, and that have all these stupid features like military loot everywhere or 10000 vehicles or auto health regen or less zombies, or pay for better loadout etc. And when I play on one server in the morning and want to go back to it at night its shut off and I have to find some other server and restart my character. How the hell do I find the standard public servers?

All new guys are welcomed US - Los Angeles Server. - Day and Night Cycles with Street Lights - 3 Hour Restarts and a Plethora of Vehicles - Random Safe Bases and Missions/Quests Current Mods and Scripts: Auto Refuel / Self Bloodbag / Heli Lift and Tow / Debug Monitor / Artificial Intelligence Bandits, Soldiers and Survivor NPCs and rMod (more lethal vehicles than normal DayZ Server) If you are new and need info on rMod, I will explain how and also post a video tutorial link.
