I think the vehicle channel does enough for the loudness of the vehicles. It wouldn't be fair to set your vehicle volume to the lowest so you can hear other sounds while driving around. You should be less aware while near or in a vehicle. Also, note that while in 3rd person view it's louder than first person. (i'm assuming by vehicle meter you mean a slider in the audio options, if I'm wrong, I apologize but your post isn't very clear.)

We just started up the server there is another thread about us recruiting if you want to join sign up here http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/118352-nsg-next-step-gaming-recruiting/ . We have active admins we just started the server. We have a custom loadout, 24/7 daylight and 200+ vehicles. Server name: NextStepGaming(NSG)DayzChernarus IP:50.23.131.238:3051 Hope to see you there.

Sounds great! I read another topic that was talking about having to find car keys. I think it'd be good then again what if you lose those keys somehow? Maybe something like being able to use a coathanger as an example would help. Rocket has mentioned vehicles will undergo a lot of improvements in the Standalone. Not initially but overtime it will be accomplished. I wish you good luck with this topic and hopefully this idea will be considered :)

During the Expo for Day-Z, Rocket did a Q&A and one of them was about shooting out the car. Q(Audience Member): Playing through a large group of players and there's always a question that comes up through all of us is when were in vehicles like for instance when we found another group of people with vehicles and we get into a nice car chase and a time that it really ends is that someone screws up like crashing into a tree or a blockade but in the Standalone are you looking into implement shooting from vehicles like you're a driver sticking a pistol out the window or a friend going through the sunroof. Are you thinking of implementing things like that? A(Dean Hall; Rocket): Well I know with ArMA 2 there has been some community made mods and this is one of the -- Ordinary thing of ArMA 2 is that they have all these fantastic mods of which DayZ is just a small part. One of the mods shooting from vehicles; there are some real technical issues with it and I can't remember whether it was ever on the ArmA 3 list -- I'm not sure, I'll have to look at the press releases on that but it's not on the list of things to do at the moment but I think we want to look at vehicles a lot that'd require some code time to do it but it's definitely not on the list of things for the initial release. We just have to be realistic like the hacking and the duping. If we don't fix that, it doesn't matter how many awesome stuff we can put in. I think this is something we should look at once we fix the basic problems because I see vehicles at least until we get this uber player construction that we want done. The vehicles will be in-game content. Until we get that end there won't be best things that we want. Source:

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'd like to see firing out of windows. You could select the option "fire out window" from the scroll menu while in a vehicle. They could make it take longer to get larger weapons into action, and weapons like pistols or folding-stock rifles would be significantly quicker. It sucks having to get out of a vehicle to start shooting at people because you can be easily shot, and if you stay in the vehicle... you are easily shot. It would also be good for raids, chasing people down (including feeling vehicles) and quick getaways.

Looking for some more players to log on and enjoy all the vehicles laying around. Just about 5:00 here PST time to get in before the rush.

DOUBLE VEHICLES HAVE JUST BEEN SPAWNED. ALOT MORE VEHICLES AROUND THE MAP! Be fast :)

I was on a 1500+ vehicle server recently and there must have been a hacker... even with 1500 vehicles I didn't expect to see 25 helicopters at Balota.

Hello guys! I have been playing dayz for quite awhile (About 60-70 HRs... Not too much) And i have thought of something. How about to make the windows in vehicles, a little bit... Usefull? How about to make a system that allaws you to Lower your windows. And to make them rise. Making them dissapear and re-Appear Visualy. Could be an easy way of demonstrating it. Or even animating them in the Stand Alone. -Benefits of having the windows up: Well... It will make the chatting inside. Heard only to people who are inside the vehicle. While outside nothing but the engine is heard. And they can give a little bit of protection. -Benefits of lowering the windows: People around the vehicle can hear you. Can be used to speak with someone outside of your car. To nagotiate. To set course with a team mate. All of that could be pretty usefull. And. Incase of a gunfight. Windows won't be broken. Dragging the player into industrial buildings after some glass. Tell me what you guys think. Peace out.

Every Lingor server that's populated is bloated with crap. Lingor is such an excellent map, but the fact that every servers has hundreds of vehicles/daylight 24/7 / care packages is saddening. Server is cheap anyway, if it doesn't take off I'll scrap it and probably take a break from the game anyway.

I think keys should be in the game, but under following conditions: vehicles spawn randomly (locked and unlocked) keys can be found in the car, or on one of the zombies around if you are lucky enough vehicles can be picklocked if you have toolbox+ (kind of "professional" toolbox that spawns rarely compared to common one) and a crowbar picklocking takes decent amount of time and is loud (come on, we're not in GTA here) keys can be dublicated using workbench in service station by the road or that toolbox+

I have a questions. If I pitch a tent, will it be at that location on just the server I was on or or will it exist across all servers? And for vehicles, is it just for the server you are on, and is there anything one needs to do to save them at that location?

Yes I advertised the maintenance over in game chat. Its back up now, and 18 new vehicles were spawned :)

Individual server admins might ban you for using hacked gear, battleye will not ban you for just using hacked gear you find. If you spawn stuff in you can be banned from battleye, but picking up hacked gear can and often will lead to individual server bans from active admins. There is a huge difference there, if you are actually hacking you can be banned from every server using battleye, picking up hacked gear might just earn you a ban from the server you are currently in at the admins discretion. I really want to know what the solider skin adds now (BTW solider skin is different from camo clothing which is often a legit drop depending on the map you are playing), off to Google. Depends on what type of server. Some private servers give server owners admin powers that can be used to locate vehicles and players, edit player starting inventories, spawn in weapons, and possibly teleport (not sure about the teleport one) that technically is not "hacking." Not all servers have these tools so it really would depend on who the server hosting company is (DayZ st. has quite a few admin tools). So that guy might be a legit server owner just using admin tools, or he might be a hacker. But if he is using his powers to help friends on the server then yes that is admin abuse.

I know about pitching tents, but have no knowledge in how they work. If I pitch a tent to keep supplies, will it exist only on the server that I pitched it? or will it exist across all servers in the hive? or will it just fade away when I leave the server? Basically, same thing about vehicles, I know folk store gear in them, but how do they keep the car from going poof over days of game play?

BrainDeath Lingor 250 + vehicles

All vehicles are repaired on cost, come get one now!

anthonydddd1, yes the map was switched from Chernarus to Panthera. Have you ever tried Panthera? if not, you should. It's going to stay Panthera. Lots of vehicles on this map too!

Hey, Me and a friend just set up a server and need a player base, We just set it up today which means we have no one on yet, but welcome all types of player EXCEPT hackers and people who are incredibly rude in chat. We like to play with people who are pvpers and also respect people who want to play it to survive from zombies and scavenge, and to great players to Bambi. Details are: Name: Golf Ground Team Scotland GB Map: Chernarus Timezone: GMT-5 Vehicles: 200 Players: 50 Max Ping: 150 Resets every 3 hours IP: 159.253.149.39:3136 Thanks for reading and I hope to see some of you online with us.
