You can play PC games on the "big screen" too. A TV is just a monitor with a different interface. It has a resolution (most common to date being 1920x1080, namely Full HD) and usually is connected through a HDMI connection to various devices, the PC has a lot of different connections. Most common one being DVI-D but in close second has HDMI or utilizes DVI-D -> HDMI adapters to connect with HDMI devices or vice versa. And as with everything else when it comes to PC's, they have support for ALL controllers, be it XBOX of PS3 controllers and their predecessors. They all share the same interface these days, USB or Universal Serial Bus. As does many peripheral devices share that same interface (USB) with a few variations on the device end in terms of connector size and shape to allow slim devices such as mobile phones to stay... slim! As far as income "so better games and addons can be developed" is concerned... The best games of all times where developed with small emphasis on income. One of the first all time great games ever released, Tetris, was made without a single thought of making a single dime. It's only after it became such a huge hit that people started talking about money. Minecraft was made with that same philosophy, money was not the goal in the Alpha stage. It was merely a interesting thing for Marcus "notch" Persson to make after Infiniminer was scrapped. It then grew from a past time development "fun deal" into a full time job so Notch started charging money ($10 per person) so he could focus on the game full time and still pay bills. Little did he know it would grow to be one of the most successful indie titles of all time, making him a multimillionaire in the process. The only reasons i can see to porting it to console is one of two: 1. Make money releasing to the biggest, stupidest market in gaming of all time. 2. Sharing your game with the less fortunate who only have access to a console. (Which in the case of DayZ, just isn't the case... We are talking about educational stuff here or free to play stuff really.) In any case, more money does not equal a better game. If that was to be true then Call of Duty: Modern warfare 3 would be the best game of all time. It may be one of the best selling games but it sure as hell isn't a good game. It purely lives on the merits of the earlier CoD titles and it's status symbol as one of the most popular shooters around. When you start pouring money into a project it suddenly turns direction from being a good game in it's mechanics, replayability and immersion into a quicktime stop motion game or otherwise too flashy with no real content at all. DayZ started with just Zombies, looting, vehicles and PvP and where has it taken us so far??? NOWHERE! And that is a good thing, that is what makes DayZ such a good game! There is no story, it's YOUR story. There is no plotline. There is no silly cutscenes to divide your immersion, no kill cams, no real reward besides your own personal, emotional gain. You are free to go wherever you want and do whatever you want. YOU are the game. That's why DayZ is so good. Pouring money into that would just add unnecessary fluff to the game. All we need is more sandbox and a less bug ridden game with perhaps higher fidelity visuals with less taxing on our systems. That we can get from a standard development cycle where you pay ~$20-$30 for the game. The devs will get paid WELL for their effort. They don't need to go mainstream to make DayZ SA a good game or improve on it. Money will just ruin it!

Hey Purlplish I know you are very hard at work..but I have another problem...a big one. As to do with my other post, our vehicles are drained of their fuel and the parts are getting damaged each restart :( Please look into this -Max

Also would add i wanted close to vanilla (not 6mil vehicles)

This just in Apocalypse causes most vehicles to disappear, Scientist believe this to be caused by elitist survivors and their hate for bandits.

HEY GUYS!!!! | NEW DAYZ SERVER FOR PANTHERA | No WhiteList | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We are from the 2ndMarines and we are hosting a FREE panthera server, admin will be on most of the time we will help you if ur in trouble. it is MAXED vehicles. and hackers are no more, we do back ups every day and every hour, just for u guys. we hope you have the best dayz experince ever on this server, there is PVP, but the admins can't ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Server IP 146.185.30.234 Server Port 3374 Server Map Panthera Max Players 50

No. PVP servers are crap. Bandits I disrespect generally. Servers with a lot of vehicles are also crap. Gets rid of the sense that you are in the apocalypse.

Hijacking a URAL full of trained squad members [around 8 in the back] and driving it off Pik Kozlovka But other than that I as of late consider myself highly skilled, especially when it comes to fending off zombies. I'm also really good at driving vehicles.

No, the WL was imported from the 80 slot. It should be clear however that this 40 slot server is NOT to replace the 80 slot, this is an additional server that we are hosting. :thumbsup: Soon the 80 slot will be moved on our dedicated box too with extra features and weapons, vehicles etc once everything is confirmed stable :beans:

Slowly adding more vehicles to the server, currently 120 but expect 200 soon.

How about new game modes, such as hardcore where all supply spawns are significantly reduced and player health is reduced, zombies possibly being smarter and so on. On the other hand there would be a game mode where supplies are greatly increased same with vehicles increased also, this game mode would be mostly for fun and pissing about. both these types would exist alongside a 'normal' game type and any others? Would people also consider competitive game modes?

Final Release on 31/01/2013 Hey DayZmod community, we finally release our last patch on our DayZ dedicated server!

ew. 100 vehicles.

Hi Everyone! I've been playing a lot lately on Dayz Chernarus US 1462 it is one of two DIS Gaming servers. The other being a recently opened Tavania server. I just wanted to send this out as an invite to new players looking for their first stable server experience. If you've been server hopping come by and think about sticking around for a while. There are great admins and hacking is minimal. When the server has been hacked in the past they've done everything they can to make things right. It restarts four times a day at 6am 12pm 6pm and 12am. There are 200 vehicles and plenty of nice random loot sites, but it doesn't feel like admins run amok, in other words the map is pretty much in it's original state except for a few more vehicles and random loot sites. The server resets are spaced in a way that you will be able to find crashed heli sites that haven't been looted. I hope all of that makes sense. It is filled with mostly friendly players and at least one stable clan. I feel like it is mostly lone wolf players right now. I am one myself. But lately, I've found the need to reach out to other friendly players. I have a very well established, well hidden base and could definitely bring at least one,possibly two, other players into my fold. I'm looking to participate in a little team building. So come and play on the server! It's really well maintained and oriented towards grown up players. If you want to join up with me specifically, I'm willing to show you the ropes but I would prefer if you read some tutorials on your own or at least complete some of the ARMA II practice missions to get ready. I would prefer you be over thirty years old and enjoy teamwork. Preferably you'll play at least an hour in the evening and a good bit on the weekends. It would be great if you were patient and not only understood how to farm loot, but enjoyed it as well. I would really like to find another solid player or two to team up with on this server. I have a lot of collateral and could use some help protecting it. Anyway, send me a message or respond if you're interested. Sorry this is really two topics. Basically US 1462 is awesome! And I'm looking to team up with someone.

Hey, stay tuned for new additions to dayzRP server. Upcoming our very own edition of dayz mod ( aimed for more hardcore/realistic experience ). With our very own edition we will be implementing custom skins,weapons,vehicles,mechanics and modifications to Chernarus map. Give it a try , join us !

I have a UK based DayZ server. Veteran, always day, 200+ Vehicles, 10+ heli's, 1 Plane. Theres also care packages, and active admins. We have only encountered one hacker so far, I caught him, and banned him. I'm going to be monitoring the server everyday, to prevent hackers and cheaters. The server only went live yesterday, and we are looking for more players.

I agree - different backdrops to a DayZ style zombie apocalypse would be very interesting. Using only WW2 era weapons, equipment and vehicles would be a hoot.

Perhaps he is using it for clan tents, clan vehicles etc

I gave up on the ATV after me and a friend found a nice camp storing vehicles. We already stole the truck, leaving the ATV and bus. I get in the ATV go across the dam, randomly flip it. I thought that was dumb, but since we had the bus, I thought that maybe we could try and push the ATV over or something with it. So lightly we hit it in the bus, and the ATV launched into space, no joke, straight into the sky, never to be seen again lol The vehicle physics in this are all kinds of messed up lol

Added new maps: DayZ+ DayZ+ is a mod where you can build your own bases and structures and it has a bunch of other tweaks to the base DayZ game to make it unique - see http://dayzplus.com for more details. Thirsk & Thirsk (Winter) Thirsk is a very small map that by default only has ATV's and motorcycles as vehicles. Thirsk (Winter) is a snow-covered version of the same map. Isla Duala Isla Duala is a new map from the creator of Lingor and Taviana, it is quite large and well-developed and is a fun alternative to Chernarus or Taviana. All of the new maps are compatible with our map tool already. The bliss optional packages (buildings, custom inventories, etc.) are currently disabled for the new maps until we do some testing. rMod *should* work with the new maps but has not yet been tested. Isla Duala is not yet compatible with DayZCommander, Josh said he'd be pushing the update that fixes the problem tonight or tomorrow (more likely tomorrow because he seems to be asleep). We are still in discussion with the developer of DayZ Origins and hope to have an update regarding its status soon.

i said they were spwaned in extra when the server was created. vehicles that we use.never anything about items to give away. we find things on the server like everyone else. items are not spawned in. therefore steeling from us inhibits us helping others.its whatever. play on our server or dont. our base is now secured with guid access doors problem solved.

Hi guys! My clan has just opened a new private hive for DayZ and we're looking for new recruits to come play! We have active admins, Rmod, and over 125+ vehicles and tons of Helicopters! The server is currently hosted by DayZ.st, its a Daytime only, 50 slot, regular difficulty server. All spawns and cars spawns are currently working and we have regular restarts! We also have Care Packages spawning! We plan on adding custom bases in the future and adding more things like custom cars and weapons!

You spawn in items for YOU, which you use to help OTHER players, so you are indirectly giving them items in a way. All I'm saying is, is that it doesn't matter if it's your private server and you can make up your own rules, the fact that stealing from an admin base is against the rules is what I find stupid. EDIT: Thinking that raiding camps and taking equipment in a legitimate way is "unfair play" is even as stupid. It's all part of the game. Hide your camps better, then. You want the thread deleted because it's discrediting your clan and server? Bah. Spawning in items in general is not liked by the majority of the DayZ Community. You tell them to go and find other vehicles instead of stealing from hard earned camps, and yet you don't find items yourself to help other players with; you spawn them in. Go figure...
