If you need help getting used to the game or learning the ropes, hit me up anytime man. I play on the new Redux mod. There are almost a hundred fixes and added features in DayZ Redux. Here are a few of the most popular ones: Combat loggers (ALT+F4) are instantly killed and leave a corpse behind. Rare Chloroform spawns have been added. You can use it just like a blood bag, and it will knock your victim unconscious for 3.5 minutes. Vehicle inspection has been added, which pops up an interface with any and all damaged parts when you select "inspect" on your vehicle. Any vehicle can be flipped. Despite it being unrealistic, the feature was implemented as a solution to DayZ buggy vehicle moments. Zombies can hear fired weapons 15% further. Crates can be built, using nails and wood. Smaller and more easily-concealed than tents, but with reduced storage space. Tents and crates can be set on fire using a box of matches. This destroys their content and deletes them from the database. New environments, that make exploring certain otherwise boring areas worthwhile. Hardcore spawns. No backpacks, no mercy. Helicopter crashes spawn at random times during the "life" of a server. New crash sites. Over five different kinds to explore, with varying degrees of fire and smoke. Have fun finding them. All snipers removed except for the CZ550 and the M24. Both are rare, and ammo only spawns with the weapon. Higher zombie density. Horde, anyone? New vehicles, including the HMMWV and Vodnik. Enforced play area. No more off-map camping Personal transfusion kits can be created inside of a hospital, using a regular blood bag. 30% chance of draining blood and losing consciousness. Check my sig to get whitelisted.

The Cherno server has just been moved to a London server so you UK guys should have a better ping. Added buildings and 100 vehicles and active admin. Come check it out!

So just because there are people that KoS that means there is no way to do other things in DayZ? ... BITCH, PLEASE... I have been around DayZ long enough to know there are more than one way to play the game. I have tried them all and (just like so many others) i have come to the conclusion that PvP is the most challenging aspect of DayZ. And before you go all apeshit and start judging my skill levels based on what gear the targets are carrying let me tell you that it rarely matters what gear people carry. If they field Ghillie suits and AS50's in a group of 6 it doesn't make them good at PvP. What makes players good at PvP is being exposed to it so they learn through experience. Lately i have seen a bunch of idiots that never learn... They run straight down the main street in Elektro and go from Fire station to church, hospital, school and store without a care in the world. Whenever i shoot them they bitch and moan and call me a looser who lacks the skill to shoot the "elites" up at NWAF. But then, when i go to NWAF and kill the "elites" up there they in turn bitch and moan about me killing them instead of robbing them. ... At which point i hold up people at gunpoint but they either turn and try to shoot their way out or they ignore or doesn't pay attention and i am forced to shoot them either way... AAANNNND.... THEY CRY. The only conclusion that can be made from that is people really don't want to be shot at period, they want a no risk experience so they can gather all the gear in the world and hide a few hundred tents in the wilderness along with all the cars that exist on the map. For what? To me it seems most players just don't get DayZ. It's as much PvE as it's PvP and if you focus on one thing only you are going to have a really hard time in DayZ. And players have the tenacity to call us stupid kids who should go play CoD when in fact it's the other way around... Except they should go play Farmville or Farming Simulator 2013 because all they want is to gather more and more resources. KoS is the product of many generations (in game terms) of skilless PvP. There are no real threats to those who have the PvP skills so they just about shoot anything that moves out of boredom. DayZ used to be so much more. You had squad on squad battles raging for weeks. People went out of their way to find each other and kill each other over some quarrel with some helicopter or looted/destroyed camp. Nowadays you have a whole bunch of crying little babies who wants to lonewolf and farm gear and vehicles all day long without interaction with other players and a few who simply camp the coast looking for anyone to shoot at period. This thread is nothing more than a nest full of ignorant skilless players who simply can't be arsed to learn how to defend themselves from other players. Learn to PvP or suffer death time and time again until you rage quit.

We are still looking for a handful of players to come join us on our server. Most of us are helpful and willing to give you rides, vehicles, gear, etc when you first come in! We are working on custom towns and bases to make things a bit more interesting, and should be implemented later this week. We have plenty of players from the east coast, and are hoping to build up our west coast clientele since much of our east coast players log our earlier in the evening. Today only if you come in and mention you are from Cali, Washington, or Oregon, you get a free G36 SD, in your starting loadout. (one spawn only) The zombies here are extremely OP, so this weapon is a great tool to rid yourself of aggro without being heard by nearby bandits!

The vehicle camera system as it is now is flawed in regards to realism. I say this with the note that I understand it is very difficult to simulate the human ocular angle of view when working with a small rectangular crop (computer screen) , but as it sits now: it is not optimum for realism. Current options 1. In car / cockpit view. This only gives such a small view angle and does correspond in any way to real life experience my means of angle of view. Driving a simple car feels like looking though a WW1 tank porthole. It may be a literal representation in the way that you can see your hands and instruments but in reality your eyes do not focus on those things, but rather interprets the whole scene in terms of spacial elements. 2. Third person: This feel like pushing a toy car though a lego land. Also you can see 360 degrees from a higher angle giving an unrealistic omni presence. It really takes away from the realism. The Best option is to have a forced Nose cam, or windshield cam (so you can see some of the hood) I know you give up a little realism by way of seeing in car controls but it gives a better / more realistic field of view. With the option of looking around a bit but not directly behind (especially if in a helicopter) For examples see the different camera options on any modern car racing game.

Hi there. This is a free mod for Arma 2. You may also notice that the maps, players, guns and vehicles look like the ones in Arma 2 too. Welcome aboard.

Update: -Added more vehicles along the coast -Freeway now looks like an abandoned freeway and is packed with tons and tons of cars, trucks, SUV,s Urals, and more -Added more helicopters throughout the map

I was curious about a feature that could be added (if even possible?). I have times when my ping will spike, be it from someone else on my internet or just my ISP being an ass. Anyways, just now (and numberous times before) I was flying around in a heli and sadly got kicked for high ping, and of course when I got back on my heli was crashed. Is there -ANYWAY- that if you get kicked from a server or just somehow disconnect that all vehicles (heli and otherwise) can safely just assume a safe position instead of crashing and blowing up? Is that possible?

hey just started a new 1.7.6.2 chernarus server and am looking for some new players. There are custom buildings and bases added through out the map for players to explore, find, and take over. There is also an active admin on daily who is very helpful. There are tons of vehicles and new buildings some come and check it out. To find us you can search n the filter with, "Day of the Dead" or the I.P. address is 198.105.218.156 port:3289

Update: -Map has been changed to chernarus (default with no mod) -Extra vehicles have been added -Loadout has been slightly changed Due to the fact that we host with DayZ.ST, and the options for care packages as well as chopper crashes enable options do not show for chernarus, I am not sure if there will still be any, unless they spawn in naturally even without the option for them to.

We are continuously investigating the issue with vehicles not appearing on some of our customer's servers. We do indeed have the Silent Warrior Anti-Hack tool for sale through our website. The map tool through our DayZ Tools is completely unrelated.

(pvp) (so kill as many people as you want) in my server there is about 10 helis and 250+ vehicles it is a day/night server but you spawn with night vision and a m4 and a m9sd it is the newly updated oring map :) the server ip is 208.43.9.86 the port is 3425

OK, let me get this straight: Vehicles and Utes aren't a for sure in the initial release? Man, if they don't put an explanation up when they release, I could see some serious PR problems arise.

The server is owned by TNR Clan (The new Republic) the I.P is 5.153.13.117:3306 come and play with us. we welcome all clans to play with or against us. anyone is welcome to challenge us. if your friendly make it known.

Wether ppl call it a pvp game or survival game...its a sandbox at the end of the day and metagaming is vital...any attempt at regulating KOS or any other player made scenarios is stupid. The reason why ppl complain about KOS is because they dont have the patience to look around the corner before crossing the street, dont wanna scout out a location before heading down to it...generally ppl want easy mode gameplay...which is already evident with all the 3rd person, custom starting gear, million vehicles, cross hair on, daytime only-servers out there. I swear the next time I see any of u titties in this thread...I will shoot u before u can say "frien...".........now deal with it

To whoever asked about Steam: Yes, all patches are sent to Steam's Content Distribution Network a day before releasing it so it can spread around the world. Which also means some last minute changes (e.g. 2 models were 1mm in the ground) will have to go into a hotfix or 1.7.6.1 or something like that. And if you run a private server that changes everything anyways with your 800 vehicles and AKs in every loot pile, you can just remove the new drinks and foods from the loot table if you dont like them.

TP, since we don't use the bathroom...must be for TPing houses and/or vehicles. The Razors, since we don't have to shave, must be for cutting coke lines..... both of those are kinda shots in the dark.

Choke points are either your friend or your enemy. What I mean by choke points are those spots that a player is forced into going. If one does not exist naturally, create one. This is very easy on servers with an over abundance of vehicles. Sandbags and wire fencing scream ambush, it's better to use vehicles. Busses and URALs are good for this. You can partially block the road in a spot that isn't easily passable on either side, has guard railings, a small bridge, or buildings. Shoot out a tire, burn it out, something. A well traveled road between towns is good. The times I do this I like to conceal myself behind the roadblock, so they pass me and I can attack from a rear flank. You have time since you'll hear the vehicle coming. If you've set it up properly, around a curve or over the crest of a hill, they won't see it from a half Km away either. If they can't go around it, they'll have to get out and move it. Satchel charges can be triggered a few hundred meters out, M203 HE can be fun as well. If you've got good aim, shoot out a tire when the car stops if you want. If you like AS50's, hit the engine. However you want to do it. The point is to create a situation that allows you to pick the place where you initiate contact. Just spend a lot of time scouting out the map, you should see things that give you ideas. The only downside is that it requires some patience, and even after a few hours nothing may happen.

I think some folks need to get over their gear fetish. If i had my way when you die your tents, vehicles, stash, ect die with you. Otherwise the game becomes overrun with elite/rare gear

I like the NPC's too, the fact is that while it is much faster to gear up this way, it also produces a challenge, so people can't just loot cycle forever. This is why Taviana is my favorite map (and the abundance of vehicles)

Hello, my group and I are looking to increase our numbers on a private hive server. We ARE bandits! If your interested in playing with us you can reach me on skype. Username on skype: th3downfall We play on DayZ - TPG Private Hive Virginia US106 [DayZ 1.7.5.1/101480][Regular][170+VEHICLES][DAY ONLY][uTC -10] you can put tpg in your filter and you should find it. Oh and no newbies plz! One last thing I record, most of the time I play. Here are some of the results: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfGwtdJz-08

No it doesn't... You still have to fire up ArmA 2 (Core 1), travel the map (Core 2), Go to item spawn points (Mod 1) to find stuff, Avoid zombies around said spawn point (Mod 2), Depending on if you survive the first 30 minutes or so you need to eat and drink (Mod 3), If you want to get around the map quickly you may want a vehicle (Mod 4), to kill other players you need a weapon (Mod 5), your actions are affected by the last point in the list. If you want to be a hero then don't PvP! (Mod 6) That's EVERYTHING in DayZ covered by PvP. Arguably you can do PvP without using vehicles though. But then again, if survival is your cup of tea then you can do without mod points 2, 4, 5 and 6 completely... To just survive you don't need anything at all with you. You can run into a town, grab food and drinks and run out again without being hit once by a zombie or other player. Then you can watch trees grow while you eat and drink once every hour or so. Now who is playing the wrong game?
