Well I'll throw out one that is server specific. Amongst our server we implemented the genius idea of adding building parts so people could start to build bases in private locations around the server. Rules were simple if you pick up an object you can only walk with it otherwise your character falls to prone to lock it into place scroll, you can unlock and individuals base parts but it is a 30 sec timer per part and you are stuck there. that being said here comes the lipstick.. I'm in electro hospital geared up for a ninja bloodbagging adventure stationed at the lower roof to scout for survivors in need. Someone had placed a hesco in the middle of the road to slow down vehicles passing through I'm assuming for checkpoint type purposes as there were roughly 45 on the server so lots of passer by's. I'm cheking my gear when I hear an akm spewing down the by the church. A survivor barrels out onto the road and he is getting round after round emptied onto the street around him as he pulls the serpent. Excited to get involved on a slam hogging blood bag slap I prepare and move down the ladder. The direct includes survivor screaming "Stop,Stop!" and the bandit in tow yelling "I'm going to wear your ears on my necklace, stop running!" As they approach the road block the kid bunkers down on the otherside as the bandit reloads and starts peppering the hesco. Unaware of the server additions within the last 30 mins the bandit chuckles and starts to move around for the finishing touch. The survivor is stuck unlocking the object in desperation of the 30 second timer as deaths grip is hovering. The survivor unlocks the hesco and stands up. Bandit confused and hungry for blood stops shooting as the wall starts to move in his direction at walking speed. The bandit yells out, "what are you doing? stop that and die already." As he keeps ripping into the wall with rounds he realizes this is not going to work. The survivor says "you wouldn't want to see me when I'm angry." que Hulk reference as he presses on picking up momentum towards the bandit. The bandit gets nervous and makes a break for the market as the survivor starts to spin 360's in the street with a 15 foot wall. He clips the bandit and breaks his leg mid stride. Not sure if I had just stepped into a marvel comic in process I standbye and watch as the bandit is helplessly smashed to death by a wall of misfortune. But it doesnt stop short their as the survivor now has a buddy down the street with another wall and they are in full communication setting up for some tom foolery. The two move his gear to the middle of the street inbetween the two buildings east of the church and drop the walls on both sides. The bandit moves back into town and is clueless as he goes for his akm. The two move in on both sides and pick up both walls again trapping the bandit in a 4 wall funnel. Laughing like school girls, they each take step after step closer and the bandti panics shooting everywhere running from one wall to the next looking for escape. They smash him inbetween the walls again and cant stop laughing. By accident the east survivor steps closer forcing the wall over his buddy taking him out in the process as he screams in agony with his bones broken. I move in for my ninja blood bag when the east survivor sees me and Hulk smashes me between the building and wall. Steak and Potatoes turned to ground beef and mash. After server restart all items were properly adjusted so it did not occur again but I was thanked for the funniest five minutes of their dayz lives.

I am tired of people hoarding vehicles all the time. I work my ass off to find a vehicle, when jackasses can roll on down to the coast and grab an ATV and go park it somewhere very well hidden and never use it again. What I'm saying is, there should be a new little thing where if a vehicle isn't used for a certain amount of time, it re-spawns in the next server restart.

i must say that in private hives it depends: some server doesn't save shit, even the vehicle, some other does save correctly( i raided a hoard of admins' vehicles for weeks) you should try

no, vehicles are enough

Chernarus isn't really any more long term survival IMHO. You can't really set up camps as they are just way too easy to find and vehicles are pretty much going to be found with-in a day on a busy server. Meaning just because it's 'bigger' doesn't mean there is any real long term survival ability out side of just being more spread out across the map (assuming you aren't on the coasts). The entire time I've played on Cherno I've managed to have only one location that I was routinely able to place a tent that was never found/looted. This means you pretty much just have to run with what you can carry. Out side of a few random spots that most know about there is no real way to hide a camp much less secure a base, meaning it's really no different than Namalsk in that matter. Now I've been playing Celle the last day or two and I think it fits the bill much better than Cherno does for being able to create camps and so forth. The forests are done extremely well with thicker underbrush & trees at the edges while thinning out in the centers which is very realistic. (well for a vid game) Rockett should really take a look at that map and rework Cherno's forest areas to be more in line with how they did it in Cello.

Just happened with me! I had a helicopter, found it yesterday. My camp is full of tents and vehicles. The heli was 20 meters of them. Today I joined the game and EVERYTHING was completely fine, except for the helicopter, which disappeared.

In multiplayer the view distance is enforced by the server because it's the server that decides how far away you can see entitied (players, vehicles, etc...) Changing how far you can see client side doesn't change anything considering if the server say 300 meters, it won't send you entity movement data past 300 meters, making your sniper rifle useless. There IS a real cost to an increased view distance: The server cannot put far away entities to sleep/despawn ambient wildlife The server has to generate ambient wildlife further away around the players. The server has to send movement data for more entities around each player, that means more bandwidth use. It's a balancing act between playability, server resources and bandwidth consumption. And before you tell me that client side the view could be higher than the entity maximum sync distance: Do you really want to see zombies and players magically appear at the 1000 meter mark? How annoying would it be to scan a town with your sniper rifle for 10 minutes, before realizing it's beyond the 1000 meter mark and you wouldn't see any entities there even if there was any? So before telling people that they didn't play arma, you might want to check who you are talking to before making a fool of yourself.

Bump, 11 days since our server was whitelisted, still no vehicles

I've been having good results placing a variety of weapons crates containing non standard weapons into my vehicles table and spawning them using defined spawn points only problem I've noticed is the crates inventory doesn't ever seem to update once a weapon has been taken. Anyone know if this is just the way weapons crates always work or have I got the inventory line in the db slightly wrong. I don't want to have to use cars instead to distribute the loot unless I really have to.

Hey there, after i had to restart my Server i logged in at our camp and all tents were gone. The vehicles are still there also the items which were stored in the vehicles but not the tents. So my question is, is there anyway to restore it? If not i assume theres no way to spawn it on a public hiveserver i guess? greetz Swordsworn

When done right wl servers aregood. Remember they don't stop anyone joining but it means anyone who wants too join has to jump through a few hoops to do so. That means your typical hacker probably can't be arsed to soon and if they do chances are their grid is being monitored. As for being group hug territory that's just dumb. I'm on the UKhardcore server and there are whole squads of bandits as well as individual survivors running around; just like any standard server.The best thing on the server are the new buildings, removal of overpowered weapons, introduction of new weapons and vehicles and some other cool server options such a zeds spawning for vehicles and base construction.

Yeah, I've had this happen several times. Last time I played on Cherno, I had a decent camp, good gear, vehicles, etc. Then the server went off line for good. All was lost. So then I switched to private servers/custom maps. Since then, it's been even worse. Ever time I get fully geared up, the server admins decide to change to a new custom map and I lose everything. I still play, but expect that whatever I have will likely be gone tomorrow. Just waiting for the SA......

You don't say where you are from, but if you are UK/Europe try StormerClan.com Bliss Private Hive (search for Stormer in Dayz Commander), this is a good server to start and learn the basics, it doesn't get mega busy, but there are about a dozen regulars on there that are friendly and will help newcomers, there are extra vehicles on there too so you should have a good chance to learn to drive/fly etc.

OUR NEW SERVER HAS A GROWING COMMUNITY! US 901 whitelist. 308 spawning vehicles Vehicles from other maps added in Custom start load outs Live admins 24/7 Gotcha anti-hacks / BE Extended anti hacks Controlled whitelist Competitions Apply now at www.team-rogue.info!

We've noticed issues with vehicles particularly choppers repairing themselves, nothing like what we were seeing on our old host but it does still seem to happen sometimes. Is this a known 1.7.4.4 issue?

Come check out my server, Namalsk, over 100 vehicles, updgraded starter kit, active admins (all over 30 years of age), with a facebook page that used to share server info (forums coming soon). IP: 216.244.93.82 PORT: 2312

Your name is definetly "Ellis"! :) IMO normal vehicles are more than enough and it is also not so easy to catch wild horse.

Hi thanks for the assist on getting set up I was on the sever for hours last night its a really great server the amount of vehicles is awesome also do you have any plans on putting extra buildings into it? Thanks in advance :rolleyes: :thumbsup: :beans:

They were saving automatically before vehicles were reimplemented, so basically you've always been wasting your time. ~

Feeling absoloutely exhasperated with dayz at the moment, and not from the totally lame/hilarious ways ive been killed either... Basically, in the last week, I have had 4 days where I have spent a good few (enjoyable) hours scouring a server for a vehicle (including a heli), fixing it up, refuelling it, then hiding it in some woods so that when me and my rl mate are on at the same time, we can jump on that server and have some fun. But EVERY one of those times, when weve come back to the server...its down!! Its not even annoying me anymore its just draining. Why the hell is this? Is it that more servers than I think are just hosted from a teenagers bedroom? And how the hell do you go about finding a server that will actually be running 24/7, or at least somewhat close to? Im in a phase where vehicles are 90% of the fun in dayz at the moment, and its been COMPLETELY eliminated by servers that disappear constantly! I just want a server I can rely on being running again the next day :( how do I find em??

Your Real Name: Kevin Your Screen Name: Silver Were Are You From: Poland Your Age: 17 How Long Have You Been Playing Arma: 1 year Did You Start Because Of DayZ: Nope. Do You Have Any Recording Software: Nope, only hardware. Do You Have A Skype: Yeap. Can You Be A Leader: Can, but got tired of it. How Regularly Do You Play Arma: Regular [usually everyday] How Well You Work With A Team (1-10): Perfectly, more people, better I feel. Why You Would Like To Join (4 sentences or more): Well, for first, I've been looking for organised team for a long time. Simply got tired of this riff-raff groups wandering around with no tactic plans. Also, don't like the idea of me as a leader of whole group. Don't mind squads, but whole group is a bit too much for me for a longer time. Furthermore, I'm very lucky in Day Z [that's rather strange motivation argument, but why not list it?], experienced, good driver and a decent pilot [ergo I never crash air vehicles expect bloody Mi17, but cannot do very risky air manoeuvres with cold blood]. Also, I got absolutley no problem with teamplay and listening to the orders, speak fluent English and understand nearly everyone [expect of people saying with slang and speed like in Snow-Informer song]. About fighting rather specialized in close distance and my favourite role in the group is support [medic, mechanic, DJ?, observer etc.] Cheers.
