I don't know if it has to do with the age of the players or just the fact the influx of new players have come from games like CoD/BF etc and just want instant gratification. They don't want to look for gear because that is "hard" or some say it is boring which I wonder why they then play the game in the first place. With the servers just full of these extra Vehicles and weapons makes finding a good home very hard to do. Especially if you live in Australia like myself. I guess I might just have to deal with the extra latency and find some of these servers that have not got everything served to you on a platter. I very much hope the guys doing the standalone don't see that adding this kind of crap in will give them a wider audience. Wider audience usually means the end of a game, Hackers I can deal with they are going to be in most games. Even at the level of hacking going on at the moment I can put up with it. But finding a server that is both fairly hacker free and playing a version of the game that isn't designed for someone with the patience of a 5 year old and the IQ of a glass of water.

I'm not COMPLETELY new because I've watched DayZ videos from FRANKIEonPCin1080p and a couple others, but never played it. The reason I have not played it yet is because I wasted my money on WarZ. But back to main topic, When I get ARMA 2 I plan on getting the mod from steam. Is there any specific server that I should play on to make my experience on this game even more fun than it already looks from the videos (Which made the game look ridiculously fun)? To avoid hackers or other complaints (to many weapons, vehicles, or etc.)?

On our server i have got a bunch of vehicles to spawn that you wouldn't believe could spawn without rmod but when i fire the guns i am kicked with Script Restriction #85. Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

You can just use the in-game editor (ctrl+e), spawn the vehicles where you want, and then export the sqm and import all of em into the DB (there's script to automatize this process.. or you can do it just manually reading the coordinates; i personally use my own script remotely, but recently i'm using only DayzCC, that has the importing function integrated). My 1000th post on the forum!! :D

Well, it appears that my reasons for it's inclusion aren't enough to convince you. It's probably not worth persuing our discussion any further. I've done my best to explain why it adds complexity, tension and realism but you don't buy it. Fair enough. Oh... And it isn't my thread. I'm beginning to think you haven't read it. The ability to administer transfusions, use weapons, fix vehicles and gut animals doesn't sit perfectly well for me either. They fall under the banner of things that I'm willing to suspend disbelief about for the sake of the game. The difference between these things and piloting a helicopter is that while weapon use, first aid and vehicle maintainence e.t.c. benefit the player to some degree, access to a helicopter means total domination of the server. As it stands, any player that has the heli can literally rise above the dangers of being a survivor. Once you're airbourne most players and all zombies are no longer a threat, you can zip around the game map, helping yourself to the best loot and picking up fallen squad members from the coast in an instant. I maintain that requiring some skill and knowhow to be a decent pilot is neither unrealistic, too difficult to code nor too demanding of players.

I'll disagree with you until the day your thread dies and none of these features are implemented. It simply does not fit the game that is DayZ in any way at all. You're trying to turn helicopters into this ultra realistic thing that only 1 person in your group will be able to do because it's difficult, yet everyone can use firearms straight up, fix vehicles, administer blood transfusions and morphine, gut animals. All of these things are things that are done daily in DayZ, if not hourly, and all of them would require training in real life, some of which like fixing vehicles would require months, if not years of training. Yet, you want to make flying helicopters, the one thing that happens once a month if you're extremely lucky, as I've said multiple times before. There is no justifiable reason as to why this needs to be in the game. Simply adding more wear and tear like I said would take a day of development time, and it's a simple yet game changing mechanic. What you want to do, is turn 0.01% of what this game is, into a simulator, when my much more simple idea makes a whole load more sense.

The Admin was extremely polite, and very helpful - the core community ranges from collective teams to lone wolfs. The server is definitely a refreshment from your typical Chernarus. The additions made to the map are quite pleasing, and really add a great change from the run-of-the-mill default setup. The loot rates seem to be quite good for low to mid tier weaponry, and very good for tools and food. A definite recommend for fans of Chernarus looking for a strong expansive community, and a twist to the "usual". Note: No e-mail verification required for signing up on their website, which is definitely a plus! NEW !! Our Panthera server is now up and running :) NEW !! Our Lingor 2.0 Server is now live and working great come enjoy the smooth and hacker free gameplay. Just wanted to give you guys a update on what we have been doing and some changes you will see in the coming days. We have been trying to figure out what was causing the lag on Taviana after a certain amount of hours played and we have narrowed it down to a few things and we have improved the overall performance of the server. Now that we have server security and stability locked down we are working on the aesthetics to improve and spice up the game-play. Some of the changes we are looking to make today and tomorrow are going to be to the vehicle and weapon verity. We feel that these changes are going to make the every day game-play that much better and give some veterans something new to search for. So far our changes to Taviana are : New choppers and vehicles including h1ny and the osprey All of the choppers now have a option to air lift vehicles for some crazy pickups and drop offs We have removed the as50 and replaced it with the Lapuna We are planning on making many more changes but we are Thank you for reading and again Long Distance Gaming invites you to enjoy some of the best servers around :)

No, no, no no no. That sweet moment when you find a Scooby doo van, and you call your friend to help you... Don't destroy that. I can't believe that almost fifty percent o people have voted yes or I don't care.... Rocket has said there are going to be ways to hide your vehicles. I like it, vehicles very rare, but you can hide it well for some dayz to enjoy it.

If you add too many vehicles then the excitement of finding one will be lost. You want vehicles to be something to strive for. All I think needs to be fixed is the response rate when they are destroyed. But I'm sure that will vary by server

Just had a bandit convoy. Lots of vehicles on the coast. Come check us out.

I'm finding that I need to keep an eye on how many vehicles are on the server and how many are parked away in camps or at the edge of the map. I generally try and keep a reasonable amount of vehicles in the main playing area so that new spawns have as much chance of finding one and they're not restricted to hoarders.

m107 still too powerful for a survival game, if people want one AM rifle to take out helicopters or vehicles, go with the M99 bolt action, single shot sniper. It serves that purpose well and isnt unbalanced as semi auto, people shredder .50 semis. Obviously elektro hill snipers wont like it a bit, but that doesnt matter at all.

I doubt one shot from a .50 would take out an armoured vehicle, especially since most armoured vehicles nowadays are able to stop .50 calibre rounds. Anyways, reviewing my stance, I want the AS50 out of the game, pronto. Stick it on the ban list... I'm fine with the M107 but the AS50 has to go.

each night at 8:30 pm (GMT -7) I respawn any destroyed vehicles. I've made the password application EASY and PAINLESS. check out the forum, and you'll know if you would like to join our community. we have a diverse playerbase, all playstyles are welcome :) http://huntersden.forumotion.com

This is a really bad server, they admins have a secret base with helicopters and tanks. I found a chopper with a friend of mine, we went over to the base and killed some of the admins/clan members but I got shot aswell. I respawned, my friend picked me up with his chopper and we went of to the NE airfield. Suddenly I was banned from the server because they say I teleported. When my friend explained he picked my up with is chopper the admin said that the chopper, which we found just out of their base, was hacked. Clearly the admins are using their rights to their advantage by kicking or banning players who have killed them and got away. Just don't do in here, find another server with many vehicles.

I figured it out. Use your map to spawn a vehicle in the general area. Make sure your map is set on Spawns, not Vehicles. Click on the vehicle you just spawned and use the ID number there. Log in and drive the vehicle to the exact spot you want it to spawn. Open your database and go to instance_vehicle. Find the ID there in the world_vehicle_id column. There you will find the worldspace you just parked the vehicle. Copy those world space coordinates. Now go to the world_vehicle database and find your ID in the ID column. Paste over those worldspace coordinates and your vehicle will now spawn in the place you parked.

This is the best server i played on its really the best no lag huge bases vehicles :)) awesome

I'm all for an increase in the number of vehicles if we can strip parts from junkers and if repairs actually take longer to do. Maybe balance the number of vehicles with a limited fuel supply and the need for specific tools (more than a small toolbox). One size does not fit all. :)

Thank you for the replies. I had set the vehicle limit prior to my problem to spawn up to 70 vehicles - so that was not the cause. The spawn script worked when I switched back to Chernarus 1.7.5.1 so I do not know what was going wrong. HFB is really taking a long time to reply to support tickets, so I guess I have to just deal with it at the moment, and stay on Chernarus.

I am running an Hfb package plus server, on which I have a few times changed map packs. Prior to the problem I am about to describe, the vehicle spawn "button" in the TCadmin control panel would spawn from maybe 1 to 10 vehicles randomly and then while the script would call lots of vehicles it would not spawn any. So now, after a fresh install of a map pack, the vehicle spawn script "button" when activated, calls zero vehicle spawns and spawns zero vehicles EVERY time. Apparently, it seems to no longer work. Before reinstalling the current map pack I set everything up right, i.e. I changed the instance id and all that jazz in Php myadmin database, etc. Nothing seems to work I've brought this to the forums here because despite several open support tickets, I have not heard from Hfb support in nearly three days.

The only times I can log-on recently, it's either getting dark or already too dark to play. I haven't seen a crash site in a week (not that they're much use now anyway), and the few tents/vehicles I've raided only had starter kit in them. Any tips on how to get NVG? I have an ATV to swap if anyone has spare NVG.

Make tons of vehicles, but parts and especially fuel way more scarce (so that vehicles hoarded outside of map don't make it impossible for everyone else to obtain one, but still make it very hard to get one)
