Hi , you're welcome to check out our Day Z Tavina server out. Its based in the UK , runs the awesome (and much more noob friendly Taviana map) has loads of bambi friendly players, 400 vehicles and we also have a free public TS3 server for you to use for comms with other players (best way of getting involved with groups of players. EDIT. Just seen you're in Newcastle too - we have loads of Geordie players already and I'm only down the road myself in Hartlepool. Get yourself on with us mate. Details on our server page; http://www.bsbnetwork.com

I think that vehicles in Dayz should be more gta-esque, before you rage at me, just hear me out. A vehicle should spawn with a key in it, which can later be removed. This would mean that the player who originally found the car would be able to add it to their toolbelt or something similar. Anyone who stumbledupon a car without a key would have to hotwire it, making it take longer to get going. Also I hope the implement some sort of leaning out windows and shooting in the future.

Very good job! I managed to keep myself alive for almost that exact amount of days. I've never bothered about any sort of vehicles, except for a bicycle I had for a week, but I tend to lose those things. I always made my way through the woods to the next patient. I've had everything on me, no tent, went hunting if I needed something. I didn't feel bothered about going to town, only if I had to restock on medical supplies, but for that reason I always went on a night server to avoid the Z's. To be honest: I feel a bit reliefed, now that I've lost my character to a scriptkiddie, as I don't need to bother about too much security for myself. Oh - and I died to a scriptkiddie trying to fix up a Little Bird with another medic. Should've stayed in the forests without a vehicle ;-)

Hello, We at [WSIC] (Who's shooting in Cherno?!) have a server, hosted at DayZ.st, which I would like to promote. We have an active player-base and would love to have more players on our server. We like to have social interaction with our community. New survivors at our server spawn with basic stuff (such as a few consumables, a compass, ...), to get that old survivor-feeling back. We have some very fun, challenging and exciting plans ready for when more people are online. I cannot give any more information about that, though, we don't want other servers to implement it before we do. To sum some of it up: Debug monitor Always daylight Antihacks (behind-the-scenes) Around 100 vehicles including 3-6 choppers/planes Nice community 50 slots Very active admins Custom vehicle spawn locations - We added some nice custom spawn locations in the 3D editor Side chat - For a more social community Custom admin panel - We have our own custom administration panel to be able to offer better assistance to our community behind-the-scenes We are open for discussion about whether or not some of these additions should be implemented. Once we have our website up and running, we'll make some polls about this, but in the meantime you can contact me through here or through skype at the name swaxtraxx. Server information: IP-Port: 159.253.149.39:3238 The name has [WSIC] at the end, so you could also filter for that. Gametracker:

Do the vehicles on this server spawn at the same areas as all the other servers? I have yet to come across a vehicle :( Been looking in all the usual places.

Stick to official hive. The offical DayZ hive. Or the big vilayer hives. The admins dont have the power to spawn vehicles or to get player locations on this big hives. Only for private hives admins geht the special tools from the server hosters Like on on vert hosting, they have a tool where you can coustumize players gear. They are some really fucked up admins out there on pvt hives.

http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/117615-jadc-dayztaviana-50-slot-more-vehicles-247-day-looking-for-new-players/

update: custom vehicles (e.g. police cars, ...) custom loadout custom weapons (cal. 50 and thermal banned)

Changed some settings in the server to make things more Vanilla. Starter gear is now just a bandage and a compass. No more overflow of vehicles. Since whitelist started around 25-30 players on peak hours. Havent spotted a cheater! Thank god! Go to our website and make a post :)

There is a limit on vehicles but it's listed on the LDG forum I believe. The rule is: each crew is only allowed 1 chopper / 1 ural / 2 extra cars. We have had issues with squads hoarding vehicles to where no one could find any. They have also added some vehicles to make it a bit easier. To your PS, An admin must have not been on. We have been going through a "dead" period but lately we have been promoting the server a ton and have been trying our best to have admins on as much as possible. You could also report this person on the forum. I apologize for the negative experience and if you would like to recommend a change, it would be welcome, please do so through the forum, we have no way of knowing if people like the rules/changes unless people tell us. Off topic from that but the LDG Crew recently had a really fun event where they defended the Polana factory, I believe it was 5 guys and whoever could send them a screenshot of Brandon or Zxero's body (seperate rewards for each), would get an LDG t-shirt and a month of $25 donator perks. It was really fun, I participated and got a guy but then got sniped by LDG ray arnold.

We have to set the vehicle limit smaller due to such high traffic. We are getting to where no body can login cause of to many vehicles... So we are taking it down to around 120 or so. That's enough honestly, esp since no one can make it off the shore, XD. We are looking into get Full moon, and other things. We have whitelisted for a day to see and we had no hackers, but no players, we gained 78 members to be whitelisted so that was kool, but we didn't get higher then 15 people at one time, and normally we have 40 or more. ... oh well. Thanks everyone.

I know a good number of players who will destroy any stashed vehicles they find, just so they respawn and become available to other players. As for the rest of your gear being untouched, maybe they just did't need it.

I have started a server that is setup for factional warfare. 5K view distance only sniper is cz50, AA12 with slugs and pellets spawns as does the g36c. The server requires Rmod and is Taviana. We have DayZ Base Building 1.1 thanks to Diamyo21, loot and zed spawn while in vehicles credit to mrmattmc on tunngle, the military bases are upgraded with enterable buildings and, we have more zombies...... a LOT more zombies that hear your gun shots from a realistic distance. The map is constantly being added to and anyone who wants to help is welcome to. If you are interested in checking us out just filter for 5K either in game or in dayz commander, there is no whitelist but you must have Rmod installed and launch with the -mod=@rmod paramater.

I know there's a link, but I'll do some explaining. DayZ origins offers a unique experience with the ability to create and customize your own vehicles, introducing a new system of salvaging parts, creating all sorts of useful and innovative combinations. There is a story-driven factor involved, giving the world a new depth and creating new conflicts to face, such as a community similar to Crawford in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead which can actually be infiltrated given a talented player. New story factors, zombies, and skins have been added making the newest addition to DayZ's mods one of the most worthwhile yet. While spawns are a bit dodgy, having 2 fixed spawns and a random spawn option, you can eventually find that if you want to live past 5 minutes, you might want to choose random. Supplies are scarce, making ammo, weapons, tools, and gear very precious, and PvP more tense. Conflicts often end with one or both players running out of ammo. Strange vehicles can be seen: armored buses with plows on the front, helicopters made with car doors, yet the ability to scavenge and build your own vehicles still seems like a myth. Strangely, a few player bases can be found scattered about the land, keeping you guessing as to how this happened and how to do it. Be careful with whatever you do, because bugs are rampant, such as dying when getting out a crossbow, or getting in a chopper. Still, Origins will give you tons of fast-paced action gameplay, to keep your heart racing. It will introduce you to things that you have no idea what they are, keeping you guessing and trying to uncover the mystery. The story-driven factor of this game is of intense rivets in the machine of it all, and the players still have yet to find what it is! Thirsk offers another snowy environment like Namalsk, but a bit less military and more rural. Frequent logging stations are found around Thirsk. In my first gameplay, I ran through the forest a lot in the dark, stumbled upon and airfield and got held up by two young gentlemen. We became friends and were going to ride out on our new motorbike and their ATV when we got teleported by hackers and razed by machineguns before we could move. Was still fun while it lasted, though! It also seems there is only a few spawns very close to eachother. Spawn killing is an issue, but expect to find people to team up with! Isla Duala is a new African-style DayZ map and offers a change of scenery from the usual maps. African vegetation and wildlife can be found all around Isla Duala, as well as weapons for what is from warfare between countries on the small continent. Sporting a rich lore history, a bunch of players may remember this map, as it claims to be "the most played island on ArmA 2". In DayZ, the map doesn't really match up too well. The engine being an ArmA engine, forests of jungle are difficult to make, as if they are too thick, you can't move through them, but if it's too little, it doesn't look quite right. As in most new DayZ maps, spawns on Duala are a bit messed up, the most common having you swim across a small sound to any sort of useable land, where you can easily spawnkilled (but usually are not). The only spawns are in the southernmost country, which is disappointing. Full of oil fields and military bases, this section looks like desert with a few trees on it. I could see how it would be amazing playing it in regular ArmA, but the value of it in this mod can't really be appreciated. I have yet to make it up to the northernmost country, where it should be very lush and green, and tourist oriented, as PvP encounters are frequent, but actual fighting, more as just seeing others. Full of brown siding building with green doors, players will find themselves frantically trying to lessen their shoulderwidth and fit through the door to get away from zombies chasing them. This is a giant debilitating factor in the map, as military loot spawns mostly in these kinds of buildings, so if you don't go in them, no military loot. On the other hand, you go in them, and you get pinned. This glitch has been around a while, and hopefully in the next update we'll see our characters lose weight so we can actually fit through most doors. All in all, Isla Duala seems pretty good, but for me did not offer much of anything away from Lingor. Players can expect to often find their own objectives in the map. And remember: All pretty pictures of the map were taken in the north! More when I get to play them (more)!

I guess my job isn't done here... Private servers were a really suitable asset to the DayZ community in several different ways. They prevented the constant issue of unfair play, such as logging off one public server then logging into another. The solution also drove the way for the expansion of DayZ servers so that the regular servers can withhold so much usage. Granted, private servers do have their downsides, such as customization options that can feature extra start-up gear, 24/7 daylight, max vehicles and all the sorts, but that comes with all variants of private servers in other games as well. It's simply a newer generation of server additions, and one that has improved experiences of DayZ players since then. Also, moving towards the Balota Buddies situation, when has a single server satisfied every single possible player of DayZ? How has public hives, or private hives fully satisfied the mainstream DayZ player? Everyone has preferences, I admit, but they have to think logically if they want the better experience. Balota Buddies may not be the bestest of choices, but even if the general population were bronies, why judge it by social aspect? I think the overall experience would be the more important thing. Let's be honest here, though. When have you heard of some random player with no server authority what-so-ever advertising a server to a public forum? The main administrators or moderators for that particular server are usually the ones to advert their products.

http://www.britishsergeantsmess.com/ Try that out. Brilliant server, NEVER seen a hacker cause major problems yet been playing about a week or two now. The community is pretty good too, everyone is friendly Take a look there although the server has a few unique features it's not over the top. Search for BSM on the Taviana map mode, it has both day and night cycles. 50 player slots. 10 higher then expected but it's alright as the map is huge. Has extra vehicles, Not a stupid amount but it's just right. Restarts are scheduled and announced on the server. It's online 24/7 And the admins are great. There's also a Vehicle salvage system, eaning you can take parts off other vehicles. If you have a toolbox - and the backpack space, and put them onto other vehicles. Meaning you could scavange all the carparts off nearby vehicles. Give it a try :) - Also has a whitelist but to be added the response time is very fast.

@BostonAdmin I am not sure what made you so angered at me? I have been perfectly civil in my responses towards you. I thought we could discuss this maturely but I guess that is beyond your childish nature. I find it pretty funny myself with your saying "stop trying to make this about hording vehicles" when your ban specifically says "Hording every vehicle = DOUCHE BAG!". So its exactly on the topic of this thread & what you said. As for being an admin, there are a lot of traceable ways for finding script changes. You're just too lazy to find them. The A-team is part of your group then? Is that why I was banned? Because I mentioned that they MIGHT be the hackers. A lot of things are becoming clear now on your motives behind my ban. I never flat out accused them of actually being the hackers only that you should take a closer look at them because some of the evidence pointed at them. If someone had mentioned that one of my group might be hacking I would look into it instead of rage banning the person who made the accusations. As far as my sources say, everything has not been "okay" in your server and that you still have hackers. Funny, guess it wasn't us after all. As for the UAZ it sounds like your group is pretty slow moving. I have a few pointers for you. When a vehicle is located at a spawn point and you see it, you go after it. You don't dick around and watch it for a couple days to see if it magically repairs itself. Perhaps your team was a bit jealous at our speed in repairing vehicles. Why does this need to be locked? Are there things you don't want to say anymore? You seem to be making fatal mistakes in your "statements" now that prove I am innocent of all guilt. I have provided a butt ton of evidence that proves my innocence and all you have done is say confusing statements on vehicle locations. Why would we close this when I am getting you to admit your mistakes and tripping up? I suggest you just stop commenting before you put your foot in your mouth. Everyone else is calling you out bro, best stop before you get your server rights revoked. :] Thank you for your email & time. However, I will not play on servers that mistreat guests. This little post of mine must remain so others can see the corruptness of US 617. ~StR1KeR

These are very creative concepts, really in depth with realism. What if vehicles had an option so you can actually see the gear inside of it instead of being invisible? It'd make it easier so you can determine how much you can actually load inside a car or a truck and such. I believe hygiene should be a factor as well because it could prevent diseases and attention from your foul scent after surviving for so long.

We had two players come in today and hopefully you guys will post about your in game experience. Hope to see you again Andrew and David! Vehicles are still being moved around and loadouts are being adjusted, so if you guys have any suggestions make sure to post up and we will see what we can do!

Howdy. I am currently running a private hive Chernarus server hosted by Dayz.st. I have searched the internet and figured out some of the database stuff but am still having trouble figuring out if it is even possible to add things like Humvees, Vodniks etc. Same for adding weapons from Namalsk. I have seen private hive Chernarus servers with things like these and my research has failed to figure out how it is done. Any and all help is greatly appreciated! I have Skype.

Map: Taviana 200+ Vehicles Custom Loadout (Makarov, most tools,a few medical supplies, NVG (New addition, testing it out for new players to enjoy the night time)) Vehicles in all major cities - not all repaired (Bold on map) Lots of Heli crashes near airfields and on mountain sides Fresh server; plenty of places you and your friends can place a camp and pillage the cities. Active admins daily We're looking for interested players and clans to join our server and help us establish a player base dominated by well coordinated and experienced clans that are competing across the map for loot, vehicles and territory. Depending on how many people you have in your clan and how many people you'd have joining, we'll give you a custom amount of loot. If you have 3-4 members, we'll spawn you a car and two medium grade guns. If you have 5+ members, we'll spawn you two cars and three medium grade weapons. If you want an advantage on other clans/squads participating in this, be sure to join before others. There are no rules but hacking will be grounds for instant-ban. Admins will also not interfere with any battles in an unfair capacity. We do request that you have your clan tag in front of your name. Each player will spawn in with NVGs to each person, no matter what. If it's deemed unpopular or unwanted, we will revert back to 24/7 Daytime and remove the NVGs. If you have any questions about getting your clan involved on a smooth, well hosted server, joining our server to enjoy the social atmosphere, hunting bambis or bandits, etc, you'll be able to contact me on Skype, Steam or PM me on here. If it's easier, you can just search BBN or [bBN]Gaming as well. The username for both: Scottie09hunt. Server IP:173.193.20.142 Port: 3289

Come join our days chernarus server! We have more vehicles to make your way around the map as well. We allow Pvp even though a server message on joining is showed. However, we do not allow base raiding or killing so new players can have a safe haven. A camp includes a vehicle and a tent. We are in the process of planning special events so we'll keep you posted when it will be! Server info: Owner: Gen. Anderson IP: 206.190.134.36 Port: 3255 Look forward to seeing you serverside!

People love 3rd person because it's better. I don't want better. I want difficult. I want immersion. I want to adapt and overcome. I can live with having the option for 3rd person. What I can't stand is (like stated above) how 99.9% of populated servers are first person, 24/7 daylight, over9000 vehicles and full military starting gear. And when somebody brings it up, the reaction is all "Don't tell me how to play!" "Fill your empty servers!" and other nonsense. All valid points, but none of them address the trend that is happening in this community. The trend to turn DayZ mod into another watered down pvp shooter. What happened to populated night time servers? Why does everybody have to use the invisible periscope?
