Thanks for the support, yeah, more mods will be added, the same as what we had on the old server plus more. But we mainly just wanted a stable server, I joined last night with 48/50 and got in instantly, so thats worked. :) We will fix vehicles and their spawns etc. on a restart since we just imported them from the old one to get it up and running.

fantastic server and hopefully able to strip vehicles for parts :)

The walkways in some buildings are death traps. Especially if you're getting chased by zombies, and you think you can lose them, you head up there looking for a hatchet or something, but no. If you go up on them things, whilst getting chased by zombies, you're fucked. You can't go back the way you came because zombies block you. You just run into them getting gang raped and knocked down. Its only by some miracle that you might glitch past them,but even thewn you've already lost too much blood and you may aswell kill yourself. So here is my suggestion: Shoving, or knocking the zombies down. Take the example above, if you are close enough to a zombie, you can press a key and you'll shove it: either into the ground or just to the side. This will give you some time to get past them, instead of being raped by them. This will also save alot of time and deaths, especially for new players. And my last suggestion: Faster animations. I know the SA already has some faster and more accessible ways to do things, (eg. looting) but things like getting in and out of vehicles, climbing ladders etc takes too long. To climb ladders you need to stand in the most precise location, find the option to climb it, select 'climb ladder', holster your weapon and THEN climb. Meanwhile you are most likely mauled to death by zombies. Sometimes there are too many options on the action menu thing. For example: getting out of a car in a hurry. You have 4 options all in the way: Engine off, Get out, eject, and gear, and if you're like me, you'll be in a hurry to get out of whatever situation it is. 90% of the time I miss and end up selecting something I didn't want to, thus giving the zombies more time to eat me while I try again. There should be a key you can press (F maybe?) that quickly performs the action, but only when facing a door / gate / ladder / vehicle. For instance you run over to a ladder, hit F and you start climbing, instead of having to cycle through options. And just so you know, I'm not ranting, I'm just saying there needs to be a quicker way to do certain things. Thanks for reading, tell me what you think:

I don't think it is bashing, I personally find Jack and also Frankie very entertaining and the interview was well done no question, but as I stated before, I am more than happy that Rocket is not going the easy way and turning this into another FPS multiplayer game like Battlefield, CoD, Counterstrike, Crisis or whatever. People who want to play Wasteland or on 1000 vehicles+ extended military loot servers will have the chance to do so later on when modding will be fully supported. I think that a lot of the "great youtubers" are maybe a bit afraid that the DayZ SA will not be that good for making videos anymore. CoD kids prefer cool squad shoot outs and not to watch a hungry, thirsty survivor getting malaria and defending himself with a crafted spear. ;)

Nice suggestion. Need something similar in vehicles as well as someone you pick up can rifle through your gear. An ejector seat button perhaps?

I've found that the majority of the good features that were added with 1.7.7 (Read: combining mags) could probably be added to 1.7.6.1 with a little bit of work, which raises the question of how to progress in the future. I also recently contact dayz.st support and asked them if it was possible to revert the server to 1.7.6.1, to which they replied that it was not possible at this time. Here's how I see things: I personally am not a fan of what 1.7.7 did and I think it ruins what made our server special, and with that being said I only see a few possible reactions. A. Stiff it out with 1.7.7 and try to find beauty in an overwhelmingly negative space (and perhaps hope that ST supports 1.7.6.1 in the future) B. Switch to a different provider that would allow 1.7.6.1 at the cost of a complete database reset and a new IP address C. Start using Rmod to allow all the banned weapons/vehicles again, at the cost of pretty much cutting off most new players D. Call it quits and shut the server down I'd like to hear what the rest of the community has to say on the matter, because it seems the majority of people have already spoken their opinion when they jumped ship. (Note how we dropped like 100 server ranks in a couple of days)

yes! the suv being gone caused me huge sadness. :P Also can the vehicle damage not being saved please be fixed? Vehicles get all their health back after each restart,a nd if they're completely destroyed they are respawned where they blew up, and not in their original spawning locations. it's really bad news if the helicopter or car blows up in water, because it keeps spawning there and reblowing up each server restart, same as heli in the sky. I'm not the only one experiencing this on our servers

A little about us: ]TPG[ is a casual, community-based gaming clan. We were started as a CS:S and TF2 clan, but we've since evolved and expanded into many other games, including DayZ. Of the games we play, we take DayZ the most seriously. That being said, we're about having a good time and surviving - not about being douches. We operate US 106, a 50-man DayZ private hive that has been around for 6+ months. We recently added a 2nd DayZ server - (198.24.161.203:2302) TPG Origins TotalPunishmentGaming VA 300+ VEHICLES Privae Hive (v1.7.1/Build 103419) [REG] Day Only] - a 50-man daycycle, DayZ Origins private hive server based in Virginia, and there are many members and regs playing throughout the day. We aim to be a friendly survivor group, but we won't hesitate to kill known bandits or defend ourselves or our gear. We are always looking for feedback from the community, so please make your opinions known on the forums or in our public teamspeak.

Our server tends to fill up more in the afternoon/night, as we boast over 100 members and 13,000 regulars within our community. To top it off, we are sponsoring clans as we did back on Chernarus to have a say on our hosted servers. So long as you have a group of four who play somewhat regularly, your characters get to start at level 1 hero or bandit (your choice) and get to partner/rival with us as you choose (or even just not worry about it.)

Greetings Forums; Kluts here, A friend of mine runs a Lingor server with everything set pretty center-line. No special vehicles, no special anything really for that matter. I have been ransacking the barracks all over the map and in the beginning I came up with a pretty wicked arsenal. But as time progressed (over the course of a few days) the number of weapons has seemed to drop significantly when it comes to the barracks, especially with regard to the "Prison" The question being, as time progresses and more weapons are picked up by players, does the amount/type of weapon that spawns change? Is it still just a roll of the dice and I've been getting the short end of the stick lately? Is there a set amount of each type of weapon that can be on the map at any given time? As always, thanks for your time and help. Respect

Yup this is a glitch with ghillies and camo clothes. Beware your clone will run to and attempt to drive/fly vehicles. A friend said one actually got in his heli and crashed it :P

The SA will be lacking certain features at the start. Vehicles will probably not be in until they did their recreation with them. For Gameplay and Crashes.... well nobody really knows until we get the access to the Alpha. But from what i have seen from the E3 videos it seems pretty stable. For all we know the E3 footage was not a special E3 build so yeah i guess it is stable enough for people to test the current build. Test the new system with more players and add valueable feedback to the Dev team then.

Greetings, Me and my buddies recently (a week ago) joined this new server, loldiggers something (188.165.218.132:2352). The majority of players there are Russians and Germans. I'm from the east block. :) After several days I've received a threat from one of the local admins (named Pjod), he told me to stop stealing his vehicles or I get banned. I had nothing to do with his loss, he chose me since I was the only one from Ru community there who could speak decent english. So I told him that since i didn't take his cars he should leave me alone, and let me enjoy the game. Frankly I was surprised by such arrogant approach... So, where were we... Ah. This guy Pjod contacts me and tells me to talk to ALL Russian players on the server and tell them not to take admins vehicles or we ALL be banned. I refused, telling him I'm not there to serve as his personal translator and emissary. Guess what -- second later I got kicked (have it on fraps). Ok i think, so what -- one of the admins is infantile dude with anger management problems (two days before he and his buddy (also admin named Grave) were hunting for newlyborns in Etanovsk. See for yourself -- two fully equipped admins with top sniper rifles, shooting capes at the spawn point, classy right?) I can deal with that. But the story of angry admins who can't play fair continued. Next time i'm on server, one of my buddies (along with couple of other players) was banned by another admin (Insaneety). I asked admin why, and he told me that the guy was banned for stealing admin's vehicles. I personally think that banning people for stealing your stuff (which is part of DayZ) is not cool at all, but I guess it's admins right to ban people for whatever they see fit, as long as the ban is for their server only. Anyway, my friend was accused of stealing, I asked admin why does he think it's him, if he does have any proof? He didn't. After we talked a while, I finally got the truth from him (have everything on Fraps) -- he didn't like that the server became more popular, a lot of new people joined, and his vehicles began to disappear from time to time. Since more than a half of newcomers were Russians, he decided to ban people based on their nationality, because he though it will keep his precious URALs safe. Not my words, his -- "the plan was to ban all Russian players". Again -- have everything on Fraps, see screen below. After I told him I think it's childish and injust, and I don't want to play on server with such hypocritical rules I got banned as well. So that's the little story of infantile admins who have opened a server with free access, and then were banning people based on illusive assumptions and their nationality. Beware. I'm not mad, it's a game and there are a lot of servers with adequate admins, we'll find another one. But I'm disappointed, yes. What I can't tolerate is admins abusing their power and being nationalistic. Why do I write this -- I just want people to know about double standards system of local admins. Don't join this server if you want a long term fair play. Local admins want only docile players who don't touch their vehicles and let admins kill capes at spawning grounds. Would you have the urge to visit them and take couple of helis though -- be my guest, I wouldn't say their base is positioned very clever, so you will easily find it. :) Have a nice play on another server and avoid arrogant admins, Lnzu out.

Just released the beta version of the ARP Wiki! Only the vehicles are view-able at the moment. Check it out!

Server: DayZ - dontest US (v1.7.7/build 103718) Time:2:00 EST What happened: I joined the server around 1 pm est from where my teams little set up was. We had 6 tents, a AJ LB, and Mi8, and a Ural all filled with valuable loot and medical supplies. before I got on, I received a Skype message from my friend chaosbman that he said our heli's and Ural were gone. So I though that it was just because we didn't save them properly. As the time went on while I was playing, I went back to my camp and store some more loot I found. When I was about to logoff, I see a player to my left behind a tree looking at me. So I got up and ran and acted like I didn't see him. I ran into the field next to our camp and waited for him. All of the sudden, he just appears in front of one of the tents. I had enough time to switch to my DMR and shoot him twice in the head but then he disappeared again. , strangly not dying. When that happened, I heard footsteps beside me but I couldn't see him, next thing I know im bleeding out. So im trying to patch myself up and gain blood when I see this tractor coming from up the hill towards our camp. next thing I see is the player hop out and set the tractor on fire and explode it. So, I tried to talk to him and I put my guns away so he can maybe heal but he kills me by exploding me into the air and letting me drop. His username was: Boyman3793 (I know this because he said he was talking to me about how he took our vehicles and loot from our camp, trying to say he wasn't a cheater or anything) In the end, I was pretty mad, but I do not know how to make proof for this game... I just checked back to the server at 2:41 EST to see if he was still there, but he is gone... This is depressing. It took me and my friends Chaos all night to repair these vehicles and find all this loot from the heli's and towns/cities. So, all im asking is for some justice, please.

the server i was playing on said Max Vehicles.. so maybe it was an added spawn point.

Simply put, two weapon ideas that could potentially be added into DayZ Standalone and the mod itself. Three weapon ideas to lay out on the table, two weapons which are improvised via tools and another which is a craft-able weapon that can be crafted by players with the appropriate components. Nail gun - The Nail gun is a construction tool re-purposed as a improvised pistol, it fires Nails from a 40 round "clip" style magazine and would commonly spawn in industrial loot spawns. The Nail gun is fairly silent but short ranged and does relatively meager damage (less than 9mm weapons at 889 blood) and is only truly effective versus Zombies with a head shot. The other downsides are lack of a sight and only useful at short ranges. In terms of the following weapons, the Blow Torch and the craft-able "Flame Spray", the way I had envisioned these weapons is that they act like a short ranged automatic weapon. They'd have 10,000 uses but each "shot" is fairly weak, to counter-act this, the weapon fires extremely quickly at this short range, removing X amount of blood per second for all the time the target is within this range. In addition, due to these tools/weapons propellant being gas, it doesn't catch foes on fire, instead it would probably deliver a pain status effect on players. As most melee weapons are effectively treated as short range firearms in the mod, these weapons would function similar but instead with a automatic function over a "semi-automatic" function. Blowtorch/Welder - The idea behind the Blowtorch/Welder is an alternative repair item for Vehicles, it effectively allows you to spot weld together damage on a vehicles hull, restoring the vehicles hull to a better condition. It doesn't instantly repair the damaged hull instantly like you get with scrap metal and a toolbox but it can be used to quickly repair a damaged hull. It can also be used as a short ranged weapon that takes the sidearm slot, it has 10,000 uses and acts like a close range flamethrower, doing minor damage at an extremely fast rate of attack. Flame Spray - The idea of the flame spray is a craft able weapon that takes the sidearm slot, it consists of an aerosol can (like a deodorant/hairspray or pesticide spray can) and combines together with a lighter (or potentially matches) to create a short range flamethrower. It would behave similar to the Blowtorch/Welder but would be a dedicated short range weapon.

DE 1000, +300 vehicles <---- thats the only thing i remember from the name. Anyways its been down an hour or two i think and in the DE 1000's gametracker page it says "OLD SERVER OF DE 1000 - NEW IP: 46.20.37.196:2302 or search for" I tried the IP, nothing came of it. If any admin, or anyone else who knows whats going on, it would be nice if you told me.

running sweet with 81 vehicles at the moment :) Server hosted on Vilayer

The server has been updated to 1.7.7. Please note that the database has been wiped, this is a clean slate. I did this for several reasons: 1) Bliss/Reality (former private hive software) is not that well supported anymore 2) The official server was released and available so I switched to that instead of waiting for Reality release 3) Migrating the old database to the new would be a LOT of work and very tedious 4) 1.7.7 is a radical change in play style so I wanted everyone to start from the same level The old database is still there so if at some point I want to migrate players/vehicles/tents, I can. 1.7.7 on Mercenary difficulty is just about perfect DayZ in my opinion. Good luck!

Okay then, I think I might be the one of the few people that has a mixed but mostly positive opinion about this patch, so here we go. I like less loot, it was stupid before that EVERY TIME I went into a big city like Cherno or Elecktro how I would leave with a toolbelt that was only missing the rare military tools (NVGs, GPS, Rangefinder, Entrenching Tool, etc), an ALICE pack, all the food and drink I'd need for the next month, usually an M16 or at least a Lee Enfield, and more medical supplies than I would ever need. A few days ago I started a brand new player on 1.7.7. After looting Balota, Cherno, Lopatino, a bunch of small towns, and even random crashed vehicles, I think I can safely say I am decently geared. I have an M24 with two mags I found in a guard's shack at the Balota medical camp (right across from the airfield, I also found 3 antibiotics there although I have used 2 and seen none since), a makarov with 4 mags, a Czech Pack I found at the Lopatino military tents, various medical supplies I have found ( bloodbags, morphine, antibiotics, etc.), I have a toolbelt with a hatchet, compass, map, matches, hunting knife, binoculars, a watch, and a toolbox, and a couple of tents. The best thing is I also found a Chedaki Ural someone hid in the woods with an M16 in it. I did this all in about four to five hours of playing. Finding all of this gear gradually was much more rewarding than getting most of it at once in Cherno. Now zombies I love and hate. I think the infection chance is too high as well as the knock down chance, but with the different system for infection which allows you to prevent infection by cleaning your wounds before infection sets in an hour after being hit being developed, infection won't be such a problem. They should lower knock down chance though as there have been times where I was being knocked down repeatedly as I tried to get up and I have been knocked down on the first hit way too much. Zombie's agro way too easily now, which makes stealth difficult but not impossible. Zombies do agro too much when you crouch run but with a little tweaking that will be easily fixed. Crawling and walking while crouching still works well for stealth although it is slow. Now zombies spawning in the forest I don't think will ever work unless zombies speed and senses are dulled significantly in the forest. This is to compensate for the occasional zombie spawning directly in front of you and immediately agroing. Plus zombies being slower and dumber in the forest would also make it actually possible to lose agro. Now I am not saying that zombies should be made harmless again, just be nerfed in the areas I described. Now zombies being a threat is good because people actually want to avoid them again. This also encourages players to work together to fight the zombies. Zombies being dangerous discourages the shoot on sight mentality everyone in DayZ seems to have (myself included) too because of fear of being swarmed by zombies. So DayZ has become less of a deathmatch and more of a survival game. My favorite part of shoot on sight going away is that now the true bandit class has returned. Before there was a blur between survivors and bandits because everyone was shooting each other. Now it may still be shoot on sight up North but that is the way it used to be, get geared and make friends on the coast and then go up North for some PvP. But sometimes you can still make friends up North. Now this is just my thoughts on the new patch's major changes. I think the new patch is good overall although there are some issues which need to be addressed. I am sure I forgot a number of things so if you want to hear my opinion on something not mentioned above please ask. Thanks.
