We tracked your time played and you had 8 kills in under 30 minutes, every rare item and a previous life had similar stats. Even if you found a box, killed one person and got all his gear. How do you explain the 8 kills in 30 minutes with a previous life with 5-6 kills in around the same time frame. Most of the best long-time players on the server dont have stats like that and they've been playing daily 4-5 hours a day. And to finally top it off you were on at wee hours when 14 others were on and a hacker came on and started going around blowing up vehicles to the point of shutdown. Did I mention you were NOT far from those blown up vehicles as well? Worst luck on your side but none the less, This is how we determine legitimate players. Feel free to explain yourself but honestly, I dont have time to deal with hackers and I put most of my trust in my admins so I can work on new development and features.

I never like saying this, but throughout my months of play time in DayZ I have never met another player who can match my skills. I know it sounds like I'm a cocky bastard but it is the truth. I don't know if it's just that I am unlucky when choosing servers, or that most Australians aren't that of good players... Is it acceptable to nominate myself? Reasons being: My knowledge of the game and its aspects are 10/10. Ask me anything and I can give you a reasonable answer. I know the best loot routes. I can acquire high-end gear beyond easily on high populated servers in a matter of hours, without death. In fact, once I reached my peak [skill wise] a month or so ago, the only time I ever died was due to hackers or bugs. The game is boring for me now. There is no challenge. Blah blah blah, I hated writing that. It makes me sound so pretentious. P.S. If anyone knows a good AUS/NZ/US server that experienced players play on, could you please tell me about it? Thanks. Damn it all sounds so bad. Ergh. EDIT: Oh I can also expertly fly choppers and drive vehicles.

First Name: Vince In-game name: Nomnomnom Age: 28 Country: US What time you are mostly on: Afternoon/Evenings, Weekends. Why you are searching for a group/clan: Was in a clan before but other members no longer play. Looking to play as a team again - more effective for many reasons. Skype: vincentaroux Experience: Playing since June, in a clan for 2 months where we fixed up many vehicles, set up camps, raided cities, etc. I can fly the huey and provide door gunner positioning. I know how to drive and don't crash. I know where to find everything and am efficient at finding what I need (eg. car parts). I can provide overwatch or close combat support. I am you're man =D. PS. I don't want to play camp simulator.

Hello my fellow bean lovers, havent done a suggestion for a while so things may not be up to scratch. In real world, weather can effect nearly everything, even gun scopes. So why not implement this into DayZ? RAIN - Rain drops appear on your scope, making blurring objects in-front of the rain drops. - You can wipe your scope, but you need to wipe it for 5 seconds for it to be fully clear, or scope will become blurry, rain drops wont form for 30 seconds. - Mud can splatter onto your scope if crawling through mud/grass, same with rain drops, you can wipe it for your scope to be clean again. (maybe longer?) SNOW/ICE (IF IMPLEMENTED) - If its snowing or temperature is below 0 ice could form on the scope, making scope size smaller until wiped off. - If snowing, snow flakes could appear on the scope but would melt after 0.5 seconds. - Condensation could occur? HOT WEATHER - Dust could form on the scope and small grains could form, but if not cleaned it will be harder to see through. - Dust could form standing behind/ by vehicles. Hope these suggestion are some what decent, will update if there is ideas i like! UPDATE: Heavy breathing causes scope to fog up in cold weather

First Name: Mike In-game name:dayzedandconfused Age:21 Country: USA What time you are mostly on: ALL DAY, no job atm Why you are searching for a group/clan:to find active players and journey into the world of Dayz Skype: mdmiked Experience:very familiar with game,parts, map, hot spots, pvp areas,vehicles, weapons, know servers of vehicles hidden.

I think the whole way the vehicles interact and work should be upgraded to some degree. I'm pretty tired of flipping randomly on small rocks and invisible objects. But yes, some more toughness for that vehicle would be nice.

So these base building tools... do they allow players to make 100% impenetrable fortresses where they can store their 200 cars without worrying about someone stealing them? I mostly play DayZ as a lone scavenger (I never repair vehicles myself or collect loot; I always steal from others since it's so easy to find other players' camps), and if that's true, I fear I won't be able to make much progress.

I love this map so much. SO MANY friendly players I hardly see bandits and have been playing on 30+ player servers/ Where are the vehicle spawns, and what vehicles can we expect? One server admin even just said he didnt think vehicles spawned on the map :S

Also, not all scripters are so obvious, a friend of mine had a private radar that was way more robust than my script based ESP, he could see literally everything in a server, items, players, zombies, vehicles, helicopter crashes, tents. All the items had boxes around them, distance from, and a name, AFAIK his is still undetected by battleye, he had fun shooting players through trees and brush from about 500m away.

As a scripter allow me to clue you in on some basic facts, I don't have to teleport behind you, with a map esp I can teleport directly on top of you or 200 - 2000 meters from you, along with map esp I also had a basic wallhack with playername and distance from me in meters, if I was feeling like kiling you for shits and gigs I would do it one of two ways, both unavoidable. Method one, teleport about 200 - 300m from you and shoot at you with a Gau-8 I had spawned in killing you instantly and usually launching your corpse about 500m away, method two is similar but faster, teleport directly on top of you with playershield on, you would die instantly and never know why. Along with these methods I also had a fondness for running players over in client side vehicles, you cannot see them or hear them. The only defense against a scripter is ALT-F4 and that is only if they decide they want to shoot you with regular weapons, if you want to avoid being instakilled by a scripter, don't play the game ever. As a side note, keep an eye out for lots of death messages in a short time, this usually means someone is teleporting around and killing players, GTFO the server as soon as you see that happening.

I've been staying out of contributing towards a public argument. But this is now way too blatant for me to not pipe up. I got home and I just opened their pbo. Wow, you didn't even hide it. It's so painfully obvious that all you did was tear open my pbos and start customizing from there. In other words, you stole literally every line of code I wrote. The people who are shouting that I don't own ideas are spot on correct. However, they do not understand why I am angry. I am not angry that RangerZ has chloroform, flipping vehicles, combat log mechanics. That's fine. I encourage people to take my ideas and write THEIR OWN code to implement them. After all, I think my ideas are the best ways to do things. Why should I require that someone find a substandard idea? But DON'T COPY MY CODE. WRITE YOUR OWN CODE. It was originally claimed to me that didn't copy a single line and just used my mod as a learning tool/reference. You're right, they didn't "copy paste". They didn't even put in that much effort. They just opened them right up and starting using 100% of my code line-for-line. Even the basic loot tables are precisely as I had them. I await their explanation for this. (Yes, I'm posting portions of my code. This is for the purposes of demonstrating RangerZ's theft and is not license to just steal it line-for-line. (Normally I wouldn't feel the need to state the obvious, but apparently everything is fair game for RangerZ to steal unless you explicitly shake your finger at the person otherwise.) Every... single... file, is 100% verbatim character-for-character line-for-line exactly how my mod is with the exception of where they custom tweaked their arrays for custom loot percentages and other miscellaneous bull shit. They did NOT "use it as a learning tool" and write their own code. If they did that, then I would have nothing to complain about. If I found parts of my code in their code, I'd be angry. But I'm finding that verbatim entire code files are 1:1 exactly like mine, because they just opened my code straight up and stole everything right out of the gate. How can you justify this?

Aw lame the server has a password now. My friend and I joined this server yesterday and it was so much fun to actually have a vehicle. A heli no less! Eventually we came across this stash https://dl.dropbox.c...03-22-38-77.png and decided to wreck it. We took some guns, blew up the vehicles, stole one heli, damaged the other helis (they wouldn't blow up :\) and saved the wrecks. I hate when so many vehicles get hoarded like that. 4 helis there too. Ugh. So we hoped to knock 'these guys' down a peg, had our fun and logged off. We try to come back today but the server has a password now. Is banditry not allowed here? We just saw this server in dayz commander and hoped for the best. No idea if it had rules. We would like to play there again. If it's a carebear server we would still like to play there and observe the rules. I've tried the friendly routine plenty of times. Usually stop when people keep killing me though. We too are sick of hacks, dupes, and weak admins. We never seem to have fun on a server for more than a couple of days or weeks without every vehicle in the world disappearing, or finding a crate full of hacked weapons, or finding a camp loaded with stuff that respawns every time the server restarts. We simply want to play somewhere fair. I hope you can let us in. Sorry if we ruined your fun, but the thought of actually making a difference made us happy. We thought for sure it would be another load of crap; that we would log in and all that stuff would reappear as though we never did anything. Instead we come back to a passworded server. BTW, did we make a difference? Or did everything just get reinstated as though we were never there? So many times we robbed and wrecked a camp, thinking it was making a difference, only to come back the next day and find it just as it was, like we were never there. It's me and Dr Pepper. We have a couple of other friends that might be interested in playing as well.

Hey Daimyo, I started playing on your server about a week ago and really enjoyed it. At least until you guys banned me. Why did you ban me? Fuck if I know, I wasn't even online when you did it. Your reason says "Hacking, Teleporting, added to Community Ban", but that is impossible since, well, I'm too damn stupid to understand how to even begin to implement any scripts. Well no problem, I'll just go to your guys' website or teamspeak and contact someone about a ban appeal. Or maybe I won't, since you guys don't share any of the information. You won't even share your teamspeak with my friend when I ask him to go into your server and ask for it. So is this server fun? Yep, plenty of people on at all times, lots of vehicles as advertized, and base building. But be careful, you might just get banned for, I don't know, being there...

Tents and vehicles work perfectly fine now. They were fixed in the last update (v1.7.2.6). Ive had 3 tents now for the past week or two, and all of my crap is saved each time. The server has been restarted several times as a test, and the tents are located within bushes and sloped forests. This is in a public server btw. version 1.7.2.6 (Hotfix) HOTFIX : 6 SEPTEMBER 2012 Affected addons: dayz 1.something.somethingelse dayz_code 1.7.2.6 dayz_server (server admins only) Changelog: [NEW] Bear trap has chance to spawn on infected hunters [FIXED] Graphical glitches with dead bodies (Bodies should now not display graphical glitches) [NEW] Three UI options available: Default (indicators only), Debug (indicators + debug window), None (only base ArmA2 UI) [FIXED] Converting between magazine types resets ammo count (Now only contains previous number of rounds) [FIXED] Vehicle and tents not saving (Now they save correctly)

Item duping using tents and vehicles is still in the game. There won't be any more game patches. All work is being focused on Standalone. No dogs either. Private Hives have fixed many instances of duping if you want a cleaner experience.

My first acc was banned, I was only posting about how some players don't know shit about what a scripter can do. I've seen multiple times people say, they can spawn in vehicles, NO THEY CAN NOT. Almost all public methods are patched, a people know how to do it, but batteeye makes a lot of cool stuff impossible without a remote execution bypass, like spawning in vehicles, turning invisible spawning weapons/ammo on players, and a bunch of other stuff.

Day 9.... Camp Carnage !! Just in time for Halloween, it would see were the horrors and carnage that befell our campsite Tuesday night. It began in the dark sky to the north, Eatme trucking thru the forest in a white pickup that the day before he had wrapped around the tree, kids seriously natural light and driving do not mix. He was setting out on this repair adventure to right his previous wrong and return the pick up to the campsite, upon arriving at the camp he determined it would be a fine idea to park underneath the camo canopy. Driving forward with the greatest of ease he collided with the canopy and BOOM, the vehicle went up in flames and his mostly burnt corpse lay closely on the ground. The fire must have been a beacon of hope and joy for the van driving psychopath that found the campsite, after Chase was killed just a few hundred meters south of camp Marcus made his way swiftly back in an attempt to defend our base. After exchanging fire he was taken out by the assailant who was wielding a handgun (not sure how that happened, lucky shot I suppose), Eatme then made his way back to camp to see if he could fair better, he did not. Several minutes passed before Eric finally logged into camp, by that time it was far too late the amphibious vehicle was gone the remaining vehicles in camp were ablaze. Gathering up the pieces of the wrecked base, we sat forth onto new plains of adventure and in hopes of finding the one responsible in the near future.

The intensity on this server just ratcheted to the next level. Last night we were ambushed at our base camp after it was exposed by a non aligned survivor (NAS). We tried escaping the hideout using our heli, but our pilot died mid flight, because he didn’t have a bleeding icon for whatever reason. After respawning, we found that the CDA guys were looting our camp. One of our guys (depraw) at around the same time, happened to run to their stock pile of vehicles and gun. Depraw then takes a Ural filled with various automatic weapons, and comes to pick me and Rayz up. I equip myself with a m240 and prepare to retake our base. Now mind you, the Ural is very loud. You can hear this thing from a click away. The CDA guys must have had a spotter, or were done looting our gear and came to face us head on. We decided that it might be the best to stand our ground and fight. We all pile out of the vehicle and get ready for the fight. The clan comes at us in two jeeps, flanking us with one while we’re distracted. They have us outnumbered at least 3 to 4. The firefight continues for a few minutes, with me trying to get a better position on top of a hill, but we can’t finish them off. They manage to take us all out and take back the Ural with all their loot. Rayz, depraw and myself both get pretty close spawns next to each other (and the CDA base) and we decide to hoof it up North to try to get there before they return. Rayz had a few minutes on us, and got there first. He takes and UAZ with some gear and prepares to leave. Just outside of their camp, depraw and I make our approach. About 100 meters from their camp, the CDA guys make it back in their Ural. Rayz gets demolished as the van just rolls right through him. Depraw and I are now in a full sprint to get to a vehicle, hoping to get out of their alive. We both grab a UAZ and try to make it out of there. Might attempt is futile as I’m shot and killed through my windshield. Depraw manages to make it out of there alive with some gear in tow. At this point, we suspect that the clan cleaned up the camp and called it a night. We, could not let the night end in that way. We regrouped at our original base camp, geared up with whatever we had left, and started making our way back to the CDA camp. We arrive to the camp, and notice that they’ve taken most of the gear from the vehicles that are left. Just to make sure that they can’t use any of the vehicles, we line them up in a straight line and blow them all up. We roll off into the sunset, feeling victorious. But only time will tell how this conflict will end…

now tents and gear is saving but not vehicles so much. Also seem to now desync a bit more

That wasn't what I wrote. I don't object to a server restarting every day or two, but I do object to a server restarting in a manner that loses vehicles every day or two. A daily restart is fine, but if every third restart loses all my stuff, then that's a no-go. Basically, I'm looking for the same thing that most legitimate Day Z players are looking for, only I have the added requirement of Expert (a.k.a. Mercenary) difficulty. Happily, it looks like Kerbouchard's server fits my bill, but it uses the beta version of A2:CO. I'm still trying to figure out how to get the the Steam version of the A2:CO beta to recognize Day Z. As soon as I get it sorted out, I'll check out his server. : )

Hi, It would be nice being able to have progressive controls like: Vehicles: - Increase / Decrease speed. (gradual without the need of a controller) - Increase / Decrease altitude (slowly or fast) - Helicopter nose up / down (gradual) - etc Character: - Increase / Decrease speed (you would be able to increase / decrease running/walking speed in a gradual way) - Increase / Decrease height (you would be able to be in any position between stand and crouch position) - Increase / Decrease lean (gradual leaning) - Increase / Decrease head height while in prone for taking a look over the grass. This could be done mapping new keys for gradual controls or for example if you press W for walking, then you can press increase or decrease keys for increase or decrease speed, if you press "C" for crouching then you can press increase or decrease for crouch a little less for being able to shoot from a window or whatever; if you press "Q" for leaning then you can press increase or decrease keys for gradual leaning.

Hi guys and girls, how's it going? My buddies and I have decided to move from public to a passworded private server. And we're currently looking for like minded survivors to populate our server. We all know what private servers mean for players, no ghosting, no hackers, reliable hive system. It's a no brainer really. The server has only been running a few weeks so new players will still be on a level playing field. Clans also welcome. _______________________________________________ Do you want a server to call home? :| Wanna get to know some other survivors? :) Trade? :D Survive? :lol:!!

Vehicles: Use Joystick or gamepad and switch to analogue throttle for progressive collective up/down and thrust. Trying to fly a helo or plane with keyboard/mouse isn't really precise in the long run. I've seen a lot of players flip their helos and lose control because they have pressed certain buttons too long and when using auto hover it looks awkward and crude. Character: Would be great but it would make it a lot more complicated, but beeing able to use more than just stand, crouch and prone would be ok, wouldn't it?
