Hello, I am here today to tell you about DayZ's newest military based clan. The DayZ 8th Tactical Division is a clan centered around teamwork, strategy, and justice in the DayZ mod and will be present in the Standalone in the hopefully near future. We may also expand to other games if there is interest. The clan is based around an organized command structure utilizing different Military Operational Specialties (MOS), otherwise known as jobs. Each MOS will be vital to mission success, some acting as recon forces, others as the clan's muscle, and others as scavengers to keep us supplies. But I'm getting ahead of myself, let's start with the basics. Although 8Tac is a military clan, military experience is not required, although it is appreciated. If you can pull your weight, however, you will have no problem fitting in. The clan uses ranks based around those of the United States Marine Corps, and has a command structure consisting of: -Commanding Officer - the leader of the clan -Executive Officer - the second in command -Sergeant Major - the senior enlisted member -Administrative Officer - handles promotions, operation results, and other personnel-related information -Senior Engineer - The most senior Combat Engineer, responsible for all engineers in the clan -Senior Medic - The most senior Combat Medic, responsible for all medics in the clan -Intelligence Officer - The most senior Recon in the clan, responsible for all recons in the clan as well as all gathered intelligence Just to name a few. There are more significant positions, but as for the time being that is all I will list here, for a more complete list check out our website when it is completed. The choices of MOS in the clan at this time are: -Combat medic: Responsible for the treatment of casualties, a combat medic will be present on most types of operations. -Combat engineer: responsible for maintenance of vehicles and installation and removal of fortifications. Combat engineers will be present on scavenging missions geared at locating vehicles or assaults on hostile camps. Most of the time they will remain at base for fortification/repair of vehicles. -Infatry: the muscle of the clan, infantry are tasked with escorting other MOS's and being the main force when fighting hostiles or zeds. Infantry will be present in the majority of missions. -Recon: The clan's elite snipers, these members will perform scouting missions as well as removal of HVTs (high value targets) and specialize in stealth. Recon troops will only be deployed on scouting or tactical assassination missions. -Drivers: The clan's means of transportation, these members will be responsible for infil/evac operations using vehicles. The elite of this MOS will be selected to be helicopter pilots. -Resource management: These members will be the scavengers of the clan, gathering supplies such as medical supplies, weapons, ammunition, and vehicle parts. These soldiers will be escorted by infantry and will only go on scavenging operations or raids on hostile camps. If you are interested, we will be opening applications on our forums at 8tacdayz.enjin.com so come check us out if you are interested, and we will place you on our holding list to be notified as soon as the application is up and running.

I've been playing DayZ for a little over a month and I'm loving it but I'm finding it really difficult to get a consistent gaming experience that holds to the original experience that Rocket intended with DayZ. I've tried public servers but it seems I get hacked into thunderdome within 45 minutes every damn time I join one. I really like the private hive idea, but it seems almost every hive is 300+ vehicles! 24/7 daytime!!! more heli crash sites!!!!! I used to play on US-LA a lot but since they added airplanes it takes all of 5 minutes to take a bus to an airfield and get a fully repaired plane after a server reset. Too easy! Not to mention the server lags with all the planes flying around and they took out the perfect idea of 2 hours of night time per day. On top of that, it seems most private hives I've joined either don't spawn repairable choppers, or they only spawn ONE and the admins/clan that runs the server control it all the time. I played on UGF for a while but the UGF clan always has the only chopper that spawns and they haven't been putting night time on the server. Lastly, I've found 1 or 2 servers that are set up nicely but numbers are low so there's never any action up north. In all the time I've played this game, I have yet to experience repairing a chopper or finding NVG on a server that actually has night time. This is what I'd like out of DayZ: - Good connection - Close to official DayZ rules/spawns - Some night time play - Good PvP with groups/squads Do private hives that offer the above exist and I just haven't found them yet, or am I asking too much? tl;dr I'm sick of private hives with tons of vehicles/weapons/24/7 daylight...any with regular rules? Thanks!

Maybe you should think of the negative implications of keeping 3rd person as it currently is for a change. With 3rd person you can... Look over walls, down the sides of a building and around corners. Lie prone and still have a standing persons overview of the area. See people that are behind you where a normal person would have obstructions such as his backpack, weapon (on back) and shoulders. See outside vehicles so you don't back into something as you reverse. See directly below the helicopter as you go in for landing and have no obstructions from the cockpit. So with those things still around DayZ will never be able to progress in situations where TP completely negates the danger of scouting (poking your head out) and allows you to remain completely hidden but see anyone else that leaves their cover. To remove these issues (as has been suggested) you should not be able to see over walls, around corners, behind you etc. In other words, if you can't see it from FPV then you should not be able to see it from TP. With FPV, the size of a gun does matter as you will have a bloody big blindspot there when deployed. But with TP you completely negate that balancing factor so now Rocket may not design a bloody big gun into the game just for that reason. FoV in first person, i can agree to some extent. I am not saying 200 FoV should be allowed but 120 would be ok. It really does become a problem when everybody is using insane FoV settings to be able to see BEHIND THEIR HEAD as if they where dogs or lizards. That's the only reason there are config files. Otherwise all configs would be in some sort of database format or stored on the internet. CoD BO2 encrypted their config files because they where too lazy to change how the core engine stored it's settings. It was the least effort to do that. So why did they want to encrypt the settings file to begin with? Because they wanted everyone to play on the same settings of course. ArmA and DayZ is not like that.

hello dayzmod! i recently got a dayz server from Dayz.st we go on a server called PVP-server with about 500+ vehicles spawned, and on that server whenever the server restarts the vehicles disappear and set to their default spawn location with fixed everything. we want to be able to do this, i understand we edit the .PBO file of somewhat, and also on a side note i want to be able to make people an admin, i have not come across this yet and finding it difficult. any assistance?

The Walking Dead GB is a great dayz server it has normal about 30/50 people on with its vast amount of vehicles around the map with about 300 of them with lots of helicopters and planes. Most of the players our friendly and we have several squads that play on the server so it always gets interesting, but we are always looking for more players to come join us. Also the server will be password protected in about 1 week so if you would like to continue playing then send us a email and ask for the server password --->[email protected]

Sirelle's private hive with 200+ Vehicles, Care Packages, More Crashes, 24/7 daytime, and Active Admins! Me being one of the admins. We could use some more people on the server to get it moving and get some players as we don't have many right now. First players on are going to get the best of the loot and the most cars. We have custom cars and spawns and they show up everywhere! Come and join we could use you :D

Nope.

Server Rocks..... Plenty of vehicles.... Fairly friendly place, but there are a few bandits... Get whitelisted (dayz.ddz.net) today and enjoy :) The server is not 24hr daylight, but players start with NVGs for night experience. Plus the night experience cutz down on the sniper activitiy :)

Panthera with plenty of extra vehicles. Always looking to have new players :) (server link in sig if you can't be arsed going to the site).

SRT Special Response Team for the invaded islands. We aim at the heads of bandits. As the Special Response Team we accept distress calls to any of the islands that we are available to, as we do respond, we also bring the team with us, no matter what. You never know how clever a bandit can get, one minute your on a distress call the next your in a sticky situation, we are gathering the best skilled players around, we will use your great abilities to our fullest extent. SRT DOES NOT ENDORSE BANDITRY. Bandits are KOS, bandits are our only KOS group, unless someone else crosses a line, then they will be added. We hope to make allies with all clans, except bandits of course.We are Bambi friendly, that DOES NOT mean we accept them as recruits. If you are tired of bandits, tired of the killing of unarmed players or anything else related to this nature, YOU are welcome to sign up to join the SRT team today. We are a clan in the DayZ Horror environment link is below. Dayzhorrror: http://dayzhorror.com/ SRT Homepage: http://dayzhorror.co.../groups/10-srt/ MUST HAVE TEAMSPEAK!!! If you want to come to the teamspeak and talk to me my Teamspeak name is Policebear88320, Teamspeak Ip: ts.survivingthehorror.net For now I am doing teamspeak interviews just PM me and we can talk. SRT Rules: Must be 14+ (Exception if your mature for your age) Must have experience in playing DayZ Must stay active in the group RESPECT EVERYONE ESPECIALLY ME AND ANY OTHER LEADERSHIP (Fail to do this and you will be dealt with.) If you are ordered to do something, DO IT. ABSOLUTELY NO shooting unarmed players or anyone who is not a bandit. Stick with the team, unless you are ordered to leave the parameter stay in formation. Required Knowledge: You need to have a working knowledge of the primary keyboard controls and functions of the game. You should have several weeks of game time under your belt so that you know what you are doing. Vehicles: These are off limits until you have taken your test. We do not wish to lose a vehicle from inexperienced driving. If you find one, contact a ranked member of SRT with map cords (or at least a general area approximation so we know where you are located) and wait for instructions. High value items: These items will be distributed by officers or appointed members of leadership positions so that we will be able to have a strong team of experienced shooters. Base Camps: Areas that stockpile equipment for the teams use: You will need to be a “team” player and demonstrate this with donations of loot before you receive cords to the base. Camps are not for you to pick from for shits and giggles you will be told what you are allowed to have. Along with the permissions to know where the base is you are to protect it at any cost. Rules of Engagement: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NEVER engage an unarmed player or with a player that does not post a threat to you or the squad. If you are not sure of whether or not to engage, ask your squads field commander, DO NOT fire if you have doubt. (Recon rules for bandits). If you come across someone who has a bandit skin or someone who you know has been shooting at unarmed players, alert your team of the bandits location and confirm that it is a bandit after your field commander gives you the green light, you take them down. (Right now the server is working on getting a certain skin for the bandit clan so we will be able to tell better) (Non-recon rules for bandits) Alert your team of the bandit, tell them your opening fire, and take the shot. If you are to find a player who is in your path and has a gun, DO NOT KILL THEM,(Unless their a bandit) you will not kill them, try your best to knock them out. If you have a high powered rifle and can not knock them out, contact a field commander through team speak who will decide what is best at the time. When we go out on a mission we go out in a group, get close to the waypoint and then split up, we don't need to get our asses kicked because we were all lined up like a free head-shot store. If there is someone in side chat requesting help, alert your field commander of the distress call (I know no one is watching side chat 24/7 but if you happen to spot something, alert your field captain, he will establish a plan to help them, and at the same time be on your toes in-case it's a trap.) Thank you. -Policebear88320 -Founder -Commander

When I first started playing this game, I was entranced upon the idea of a large scale PVP with EVP elements. I've been playing FPS and PVP games since I was young and my parents could afford stable internet. Started with some Quake 2, then to military FPS's like the original MoH trilogy, then onto CoD's. I lead clans of up to 200 solid players for up to 5 years, of which was my first attempt at a clan. What I am trying to say is, I have been playing Dayz for almost 6-7 months and have slowly changed my outlook. I'm no longer looking for the run and gun, bag and tag lifestyle. I have been looking for a clan that accepts this, and have been searching on forums for some time. I am a very skilled scavenger and I collect items. It seems clans are all looking for the same thing now, a good gunfight. Regardless of the cost of the battle or the bounty of which it will score. I'm tired of fighting and shooting people just because I have a gun and have nothing better to do. I was recently playing with a clan that was all about the gunfight. They are great guys, fun to talk with, and the best team to have at my back if I walked into something bad. However, they didn't respect my playing style. I'm a scavenger, I collect items. I wouldn't play with them for a couple days because they were just man hunting...so I scavenged. They had no need for camps because they died so often it wasn't worth the time...so I camped alone. I was the only person on the entire server that earned his hero skin, because in 3 months on the server, I shot at 3 people...every one of my clan mates were bandits and admired at each others kill count...once again not KDR. I had my camp set up and had it secret from them so they wouldn't just go there to restock after death. I had 10 tents filled to the brim with items I collected with hard work and time...rare items to boot. I made a few friends in the server, publics of which I grew to trust...more than my clan because they were just blood thirsty it seemed. A week or so ago, my clan stumbled upon one of my friendlies and took him out...next to my camp...of which was well hidden. My friendly told them it was my camp and that they shouldn't touch it. They neglected this and continued to raid my tents, my vehicles, my camp. Upon questioning them about it...they called me butthurt about losing my supplies...truth was I was downhearted, but not upset, and certainly not pissed. If it was a group of pubs, I would have just moved camp and started again...but this was my clan, my friends, my "comrads" that did this and laughed in my face about it. Still thinking I was upset about my items, they mocked me. I was upset because they had no respect for my playstyle. I understand this game was made to be played as the people play it. THAT was the dream. I has SO many different application possibilities that we can not neglect only one means of play. I understand this, and If you want to run around and PVP all day...go right ahead. Don't force my hand into your playing methods, because I don't enjoy it. I will not force you into mine, because you dont enjoy it. What I am looking for is a group of people, clan or not. Who accepts ALL playstyles, and will not forcibly push me into a different playstyle. I'm looking for a scavenging group, one who picks stealth, and avoidance over gunfights. I'm looking for a clan I can build an actual camp in the mountains. I'm an experienced Dayz Chernarus player, a fantastic scavenger, and great company. I'm willing to fight when I need to, but more willing to hide in a tree and wait for a better opportunity. I'm excellent with stealth and moving around Zeds and people. I'm more so looking for a community that I can put in my memory banks as one of the greats of my life. Thank you for Reading this, I will be monitoring this thread for replys. If you don't think you can deliver, please pass over this post and pick up another bambi that you can corrupt. If you think I would fit in with you and/or your clan. add me to steam name.

I am going to start up a new server and I was wondering if anyone would join. I was thinking of putting 150 vehicles (or maybe more). Supply drops which have military grade weapons. Events to win good gear which would be hard to find. A custom starting loadout. Friendly admins. I would charge £2 per month for whitelist, this will keep out hackers and make an income to support the server. This could go down when there are more members. For the first 2 weeks I will make membership free so people can get to know the server. Please say if you are interested in this so I can get one up and running!

First fire-fight stories, (gun fights). I'll go first. Me and my friends came out of Cherno in a off-road and a Betty van going to the gas station in between Cherno and Boleta. And me and friends came across a Bambi with a shot-gun looting, I pointed my Lee at him and asked "Hey, Hey! You are friendly?" he pointed his shotty at me and intended to shoot,I was lucky he had the aim of a blind person with Polio so he missed, I delivered the final blow to his head and we started refueling our vehicles. Randomly a bus pulled up with one ghillie suit guy and two bandits inside it, They got out and opened fire clipping our friend who we nick-named "The Mule" because he had all our gear. Me and my last remaining friend took them on 2v3 and got two of them, only for the ghillie guy to AK my friend. I ran over the my car for cover instead of using the broken down ruble that is on the roads. One shot, one kill. A shining 303' bullet to the fore-head ended him and his bandit spree. We came out one bus, one DMR, two AK-47's richer. *SIDE NOTE* Turns out shotgun Bambi was with them in a Teamspeak call and they were heading over to pick him up anyways.

To set the scene, I've been playing on a private hive with extra vehicles that sometimes spawn with non-offical Dayz weapons. Nothing crazy, but enough vehicles you can pretty much get one when you need one, some bikes at the more isolated spawns and non-standard weapons like the KSVK anti-material rifle in my pack (which ironically, can't be fired while wearing the pack making it wildly impractical). At this point I also have a ghillie suit, silenced M4 with the dot sight and a silenced pistol plus all the supplies and gear (except, oddly enough, a hunting knife). I decide to hit up the Balota airfield to try and find some STANAG mags because I'm running low. I recon the base for awhile from a hiltop to the north. I don't see much except for a UAZ on the road heading off towards Cherno and some side channel chatter from some Bambis in Kamarovo looking for a ride to Balota. The sun is to my east so I decide to circle around and approach from that direction to give me an additional advantage over any snipers. So far all this is pretty stealth. On my way, I find a UAZ jeep sitting on the road. After a few minutes of verifying that it's not a trap, I take the UAZ and decide I'm going to storm Balota with it from the east. I stop at the east end of the runway to set up with the KSVK to make sure all is clear. So far, nothing around except for a bus, a Ural truck, some and some motorbikes. Not ususual on this sever as I said before. All of a sudden, everything goes to shit... While I'm dicking around with my giant gun, I see two UAZs heading directly towards me. I'm not set and rather get caught without my pack and M4, I switch back to them, put the sniper rifle back in the bag and get back in my UAZ to get the hell out of there. The two other UAZs manage to catch up and pin me between them. We all come to a stop and jump out of our trucks. These two jackholes are straight-up bandits with scarfs and AKs and everything. We start firing and I hear 7.62mm rounds wizzing past me. What the first bandit DOESN'T hear is the sound of my silenced M4 playing some chin-music on his face. He goes down. I run around the trio of crashed UAZs and reload. I see the other bandit trying to crawl under one of the jeeps to take a shot at me, so I give him an encore performance. I'm pretty psyched since I just killed two bandits. Unfortunately, they prefer the cheap Russian crap, so no STANAG mags, but I did get a hunting knife off them. I probably should have hid the bodies, but maybe some Bambis these idiots would have killed will now have a chance in life. And had I left it at that, things would have been ok... That's when I se ANOTHER UAZ. Now I don't know if this guys is with them or not, but I can't take any chances. I turn to get into one of the crashed jeeps, but then you might recall that Ural I mentioned earlier. It's not far, so I hop in and give chase. First thing I do is smash through the pile of UAZs because I can. Then I chase down the other UAZ. I'm blasting the horn "FRIENDLY!" but he beeps back "FUCK YOU DUDE!". I chase him down the road bumping him a couple times then let him go. Later I meet a girl! I'm driving the Ural up and down the road between Cherno and Kamenka, Maximum Overdrive style. Basically blasting the horn and smashing into anything I see. All of a sudden I see a girl getting ready to hop on one of the Bambi Bikes the server spawns near Kamarovo. Instead, she decides to jup in my manly truck and I think "Great! Now we can repopulate Chernarus!" I'm not sure if it was monsterous blood-soaked ghillie suited visage, my crashing into a telephone pole trying to turn the truck around or maybe I actually spoke that last part over side chat, but she jumped out of the truck and probably broke her legs. Ah well..better to have loved and lost:( And now everything really goes to shit! Saddened by the end of my relationship, I'm driving back towards Balota when someone opens up on me with a freakin machinegun! Possibly from a helicopter! I start heading cross country but both me and the truck start taking some serious damage. The truck is no longer drivable and my legs are busted so I flop out and switch to the KSVK, using the truck for cover. With all the pain and blood loss, I can't see shit. But no one is shooting at this point, so I grab my pack, inject some morphene and blindly run the heck out of there. Sadly I lost the KSVK without ever getting a chance to fire it. But I am glad I didn't give the last of my morphine to that girl! Final tally: 2 bandits dead 1 female Bambi really fucked up and probably going to die soon 3 UAZs and 1 Ural destroyed Multiple other vehicles damaged or destroyed Most of my STANAG ammo gone Lost my KSVK sniper rifle I'm in pretty bad shape physically (and emotionally). I did end up finding a hunting knife though!

bump, website is having to be redone also....more vehicles! enjoy.

Did u ever send an email or a forum with the following Ingame nickname Lost items Time u last played server at / versus time u last logged on at (Would give me a time-frame to look up database snapshots & server logs) Was the lost times on your character (check if your altf4 bot died after u d/c) tent (allow me to check if your tent got deleted due to cleanup script i.e player = dead & tent not updated in 4 days) vehicle (let me check if vehicle got robbed / destroyed / inventory nicked by another player) None of this info, did i ever receive from u & alot of others Complaining over rcon chat = useless, it requires admin to notice the chat... drop everything they are doing right then... Because they will need to type & ask questions (incase u didnt supply enough info), before u leave the server. But on the otherhand email / forum post allows admin to look up problem when they got afew minutes to spare. And allow for admin to send u a message (even if u arent on the server amazing), incase i need more info. Btw the only lost items where when i rolled back to .com version, and i described exactly why i did it. Because of bunch of players moaned about lost rare sniper guns + their tents / vehicles getting raided, due to been close to a new spawn location. But instead u & others complain in server chat & think that accomplishes anything ? Hint: the odd time admin might actually like to play on the server they pay for. Without someone moaning about lost gear (but yet the people cant be bothered to write an email / forum msg) Anyway its been fun, for the most part

its because there are two different types of servers. Normal hive servers, and private hive servers. normal hive servers are all connected and are just the basic dayz mod. so when playing on them your stuff will carry over from server to server. private hive servers are servers that only are connected to its self or, one or two more servers, these servers usually have added vehicles or weapons. with the growing popularity of the game there seems to be more private servers than normal servers, so if your just jointing a random sever just make sure it says US#,UK#,AZ#.ect
