Gabe has banned my group as well for basically being better than RGB and himself. His server has also been caught helping the RGB by letting them set their vehicles and tents outside the map when nobody else can go outside the map, because they will die. Ive watched him reset and roll back servers after the RGB would lose their helicopter, and i have had him reset the server multiple times while my group had a helicopter, with no warning. and now i think it was on purpose everytime. I was recently banned for "pvp logging" which i did not do, the funny thing is all of my group getting banned from this server happend over a month ago. I got on randomly after a couple of days just to see whats up, and i did nothing wrong. a month later come to find out he banned me wrongfuly for "pvp logging", which i did not do. I have watched gabe ban people for no apparent reason, and i have watched gabe ban people for the RULES he in fact would make up that are not on his server rule list before. I only didnt bring it up because i myself didnt want banned, or on the bad side of the admin. But when you start playing better, and beating the admin and his friends, i guess he just has to abuse his powers. Its sad really, i enjoyed CA1 highly and loved everything he did to it, i even gave him props on the sweet loading screen. p.s Probably the most crooked server i have ever been on, good riddence

I find it hard to believe that someone hasn't already suggested this, so I think it's probably already out there. I can't find it so I'll post this anyway. Animals should be a real challenge to hunt, almost a sub-game in itself. Domesticated animals you can just walk up to and axe should be very rare, as these will be quickly killed and consumed after a societal breakdown. Wild animals should hear, smell and see you from quite far away, and run faster than you can. I've hunted pigs with dogs and knives before, much the same as in this video: Pigs are quite smart, and I've found when you're driving past they will sometimes stand still in the bushes so you can't see them, rather than running and making themselves visible. Their tusks can gore you and your dogs if you aren't careful. In fact, it's advisable to put armour on your dogs to prevent this. At night, some animals will stand there for a second and stare back at you when you shine a spotlight at them. Perhaps some vehicles could be fitted with a spotlight for hunting? Maybe spotlights could be available to carry around? This could be a really deep part of the game - simulating the behaviour of animals. In the very least they could behave exactly the same as zombies, except they run in the opposite direction rather than towards you. Maybe territorial male deer would attack though?

I swear to god, this mod will rock ass harder if all of these maps are combined together. And to save performance, you'll need to load into the next map when you reach the edge of the previous map, like a road or something that asks "Go to x map? Yes or No". Kinda like an instance but not really. That would be great for a stand-alone. Kinda like a huge MMO. And then tweak it by adding more content, more uniforms, guns, vehicles so that there is a lot of stuff to do. Cuz Dayz has gotten boring now, but these new maps seem fun. But the down side is that the character stats will only save for that one map. And people will leave WoW and GW2 for this bitch in a heart beat.

This is for others who found their community/clan/group very boring... As you know, DayZ has many communities, teamspeaks, private hives, etc.. I've been searching for a few months now for a solid group to play with and become apart of... I kept running into people who would be on/off. Every group or community i've joined has NOT really related to me. There is drama, shit talking, and NOT mature enough. I did find a group that owned a server that i got along with and had a fun time with, but after awhile....it slowly fell apart. The members were dicks & boring so I left and went on a hunt. Yes, shortly after...i found that awesome group named DayZ Buzz :D, and they are an extremely friendly community and Leadz, My Buddeh :3, runs Dayz Buzz. His server has an anti-hack mechanism that is not available to the public, and can get rid of and Permanently Ban a hacker instantly. You probably have heard of him and he is a BIG part of DayZ, the teamspeak IP will be at the bottom, also he runs a server, put "dayz buzz" in the filter and it'll pop up, this server literally kicks superior ass! It has a very high loot spawn, and ALOT Of vehicles! I swear! like 80+ vehicles and ALOT of Heli's! Hope you enjoy your stay! Server IP: 216.172.106.85:2312 Teamspeak IP: 63.143.52.202:10005 Sorry For The LONG ASS Story xD

am i to understand that several people had this happen yesterday? i literally joined to ask about this. all my vehicles are gone since yesterday but my tents are still there. any body able to shed some light on this?

Figured it was time to post up our dedicated DayZ server, since enabling whitelisting it's usage has decreased dramatically, however so has all the hacking and to date there's been no further issues reported. Prior to whitelisting this server was full with zero complaints on this forum. Why choose us over the thousands of other instances: We own and run our own hardware, which is co-located in San Diego. It's not leased equipment nor is it from a provider such as Vilayer. Hardware is enterprise grade, i.e. ECC memory, SAS disks in raid 10, dual 1Gbps Ethernet connections per hardware node. Network is a blend of Tier 1 providers, Level 3 has preference (Level 3, Hurricane Electric, Abovenet, XO, PCCW and Cogent) Enterprise level backup system in place. Separate test instance, all changes are tested for a week to two weeks prior to hitting the production instance. We have been around providing gaming servers on our own dedicated hardware since 1998 (name change in the past year) Active community - www.fpsgamerz.com TeamSpeak 3 Available - ts.fpsgamerz.com (default ports) We have tried to keep in with the theme of DayZ, there's not 1000 vehicles spawned on the server, there's 50-60 vehicles at any one time. There are bicycles placed around the coast line to help out people who have just spawned in and if heading inland there are care packages available that contain basic loot through to high end guns. Heli crash sites has been increased slightly so you can expect a maximum of eight crash sites per game. Most of the major bugs have been ironed out, and loading times are generally instant, visibility is set to 10000.

Exactly what it says on the tin. A few hours ago, I came across a camp with 3 sedans. After carefully investigating to make sure it wasn't a trap, I checked one of the vehicles and found 2 bear traps, which I set near the driver's doors of 2 of the sedans. For the 3rd, I simply deflated it's tires. I wish I could have stayed to watch, but I didn't want to take a risk and hightailed it out of there.

1. Name, age and where you're from: Tom, 20, Germany (my english is far away from perfect) 2. Experimence (How long you play, and what you've done so far): Played together with a reallife friend, getting some vehicles to work and building a small camp 3. Pref. role (Like (LM)Gunner, Engineer (taking care of vehicles) Spotter, Assault ect.: I would like to play as a sniper, but never had a chance to get used to it (watched some videos, shot at some zombies lol :D) 4. Skypename (We use skype only for now.): Tomlijones 5. Why would I pick you?: Because I am a patient guy which I think is good for a group, playing like rambo could be funny when you playing alone, but in a group it will get your whole group in danger. 6: What are you? Survivor (Neutral, tries to communicate or just ignore) Hero (Always tries to help and be friendly) Bandit ('Nuff Said): I would like to play as a Hero, but sometimes it is a pain in my ass to not hit the trigger. 7. Activity (how many days/hours a week do you play?): at least 3 per day 8. Add something yourself. (I probably forgot something): I rly would like to start on a hive server and building a new camp, I don't like to get equiped with all of the stuff without doing something on my own.

Hey everyone, we have a newly established private hive server, which means it is the perfect time to come on in and create a home camp with friends or by yourself. This server is Day/Night and you spawn with night vision already in your inventory as well as a compass and map to find your way to your friends! Server info is as follows: Name - The Revolution Max Players - 50 50+ Vehicles Currently 3 helicopters IP 24.243.6.110:2302 Helpful Active Admins Sidechat enabled To celebrate its opening, several tents have been placed in The firehouse, supermarket, and church in Elektro, as well as in the church in Cherno filled with automatic weapons and sidearms (M249, M4A3 CCO, G17) with plenty of ammo! There is a limited quantity, so the first 50 players will be very well armed from the get go. Come in and get your weapons before they are all gone and make this your new home server! Survivors and Bandits alike are welcome to come join the fun!

Petrol tanker/truck! Hi there, I believe that if more vehicles are going to be added and that they are more customizable then perhaps there should be at least one of these vehicles on each server for everyone/factions/clans to fight over. I believe this would be great because it means that a convoy of people's vehicles would be able to stay fuelled for a very long time, however it adds the risk of the tanker being shot and blowing up most of the convoy and scarring the land in wreckages, flames and bodies dismembered with blood everywhere. So people would fight overthese tankers or stay away from them. If a clan is enemies to another clan while surviving against zombies then they would need to watch out if they have a petrol tanker or for the enemies it would be a fun task to intercept or ambush the convoy and kill them all/blow them up or strategically try take over the convoy with less casualties. It's up to you how you would play but I think many many people would back up my idea/suggestion. Please add this Dean/Rocket! P.S - This also adds reason to introduce more rag-doll and definitely add dismemberment! Thanks, Harry

I did it after he kicked/banned me from the server, as I said. If I don't agree with what he's doing, he will hear about it. He didn't like somebody opposing his decision, so he banned me... because he is a control freak. Anybody who challenges what he does is seen as an enemy. This was, again, exemplified by a person in the server asking why he banned his friend, and then Dave banned the person asking, also. He is an irresponsible admin, and he should not even be allowed to operate a server. Here is how the conversation went. "Wait, why did you just ban him, Dave?" "Because I saw him talking about asking his friend to call vehicles out for him, then suddenly our GAZ disappears five minutes later? No. That seemed pretty shady, so I banned him." "I don't agree with that..." "Wait, did you just say that you don't agree with my fucking decision? If you don't agree with my decision, then you can shut the fuck up and get the fuck out." "I did just say that I didn't agree with it, yes... because we don't actually know if he hacked, so why would we ban him?" Five minutes passed, then I hear him say... ".... whaat?", and then my privileges were removed in TeamSpeak, I was banned from TeamSpeak, and then banned from the actual server. All because I voiced an opinion on a decision he made. It seems like a pretty petty way to deal with a situation like that, in all honesty.

After that restart none of our tents or vehicles spawned either so all it needs is another restart,but Mindblank was not available to do it.

Hey there, JNNSK here and me and my buddy were wondering if anyone wanted to join us. Because having just 2 people in one team is just not as fun as having more. A little thing about me: 1. My name is Justin / JNNSK / Col. J.TeV 2. I'm a very experimenced player, I've been playing for I guess around 5+ months now. 3. I'm from Holland, and my buddy is from the UK so we're looking for European players, because we play on European servers. 4. I have alot of experimence with teaming up in squads, teams, clans ect. I've been playing as a sniper/heli pilot in some clans. 5. We're good geared and got evrything spare in our camps, so if needed we can gear you up (or pick you up on one of our main servers). 6. I like to have organized role setup's, so we dont have evryone running around with snipers and then get easykilled by flankers in a fight. Tell me something about you: 1. Name, age and where you're from: 2. Experimence (How long you play, and what you've done so far): 3. Pref. role (Like (LM)Gunner, Engineer (taking care of vehicles) Spotter, Assault ect.: 4. Skypename (We use skype only for now.): 5. Why would I pick you?: 6: What are you? Survivor (Neutral, tries to communicate or just ignore) Hero (Always tries to help and be friendly) Bandit ('Nuff Said): 7. Activity (how many days/hours a week do you play?): 8. Add something yourself. (I probably forgot something):

*1. Age: 17 2. Real Name: Justin *3. Skype Name: JNNSK 4. Steam Name: JNNSK *5: Rate yourself 1-20 on how experienced you are: 19/20, I've done evrything, can get vehicles and best gear in a day. *6: Can you get from Elektro to Stary Sobor without help?: Easy, I can go to stary, nwaf, neaf or anywhere whitout a map (maybe I do need a compass) *7: Are you willing to commit banditry? I'm always a bandit, but I'm easy to team up with I usually ask before I shoot to lower gun, talk and ask for teamup. *8: Are you willing to start fresh on a Private Hive server? Sure. *9: Can you connect to US servers? Yea, I am from Holland, but I played on some US servers before. *10 (extra) I played sniper/pilot in multiple teams, clans and squads. I dont like to have a team whitout real rolls (Not like evryone goes sniper and with an AR/LMG , cuz at longrange evryone goes randomly sniping and then flankers got free kills. I play for around idk how long, I installed DayZ for the 1st time around may or earlier? So yeah, I'm experimenced.

Just a quick question. during the server restart today, two vehicles in theire spawn location disappeared. any idea why? I was gonna fix one of them and they both disappeared after the reset.

The server is now up and running. There was a problem with vehicle spawns and that was why it was down. Vehicle spawns are now working correctly. Sorry to anyone who found one of a few vehicles on the map but it had to be done.

If there gonna be dogs in the standalone are they gonna be able to sit in a vehicle.

I was playing at de 807 then I saw more than 10 vehicles in komarovo saying admin there is a hacker in server and then I lost control of my character I start fraps late.My car start going when I wasnt even pressing w ?! I start going inside the buildings?! Then my character get out from car and here the rest of thing I want you to check name on debug screen and chat name!!!By the way it happened at ‏‎22:08(from Turkey gmt +2) Name on debug:Yemci The name when I am using side channel chat:Paulie Walnuts Last name(I guess when he saw I was using side channel):George Smith http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSJFznFu2z4 Note:He said ''I got your serial key now'' to an other guy he controlled before I didnt think that was real ! I thought they were trolling people.

I guess we should weigh the points here. It'll help private server admins spot obvious hackers. Some innocent guys might get banned from these servers but that's happening now anyway. It can also be used by abusive server admins to track players and vehicles more easily. Well, that's happening too, be it admins or not. The only difference is how accurate it is compared to map hacks out there. (videos folks) This is only a slightly more effective tool for abusive admins and a much more effective tool for honest and legit admins that want to prevent the hackers from destroying their server. This might help catch even more map hackers. Having the ability to watch people play rather than read long logs might make policing a server more enjoyable and make administering a server less of a chore. The pros outweigh the cons from my standpoint. It doesn't sound like this will be possible in the standalone anyway but I could be wrong.

WTF did I just read? Jeez your grammar... However... No one is banned for using non-hack programs (like Fraps, overlays, etc.), picking up or using hacked in-game items, weapons or vehicles, being on a server at the same time as a cheater, or other passive non-cheating activity. http://www.battleye.com/support.html

I see no one who has replied bothered to include their age and location as you requested (probably be good if you did in your opening post too :)). I'll go ahead and do what you asked and see if others follow suit. 18, United Kingdom. I'm just here to say this though: If you feel like it, join my private hive server. Its usually full of UK based players as well as other parts of the world. Hacking is almost non-existent and if one does manage to wreak havok the damages are swiftly corrected where possible. its always day on my server and there is custom starting gear as well as a plethora of vehicles to play with. I try to be as active as possible as an admin and interact with the user base wherever possible. Admins are easily identifiable by their 'Soldier' skin, so if you see one don't be afraid to ask questions or shoot, if your that kind of a guy :D. Hope to see you in-game at some point. To join it simply filter for dayzuk.com in Commander (or you DayZ launcher of choice or the in-game browser, if your into that kind of thing :/) To add to the above, we have a TeamSpeak server as well as a website :D

Hey folks, it's sad to say that I have not come across a server that is completely friendly, there is always someone who will either shoot you on sight or stab you in the back. Just today I was going off to pick some guys up, who had just died, from Cherno, (these guys actually 'borrowed' 2 vans from me), on my way there down the East coast road I see a new spawn, being nice I offer him a ride, we flew right around through Elektro then the guy spotted a green car on the side of the road in Prigorodky, my Gaz was full of spare parts so I got out to fix it up, as soon as I left the guy popped into the drivers seat and sped off. Moments later as I'm now looking for spare parts for this green car I bump into another new spawn being chased by zeds, but this guy was actually friendly and gave me a morphine injector. The thing is, is it too much to ask for? Why can't everyone just get along... The idea in my head is take the factory south of Polana for example, a great place for a base, if most of the 50 players all worked together, making loot runs to all the hot spots, picking up new vehicles, etc, everyone would be quite happy, right? Picture the factory at night, cars coming and going, camp fires with people sitting around just talking and stuff, tents set up all along the wall. And there is only so much one person can carry and if all players are bringing in more and more loot then everyone would have a fair share. Is there anybody who shares this idea? Peace. CaptMugwash
