Anyx7 3 Posted November 14, 2012 Hello! I've tried finding good private hives, but I can't really find one that fits me perfectly. It always ends up with the next day the server is empty.I'm trying to find europe, so it fits my in real life time, but i can't seem to find one.It seems easier to join public server because then I can choose a new one another day and dont lose my gear. But ofcourse, more hackers...Suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Average Pegasus 646 Posted November 14, 2012 I can recommend you the http://dayzrescueteam.enjin.com/ server. It whitelisted and they allways people on it!We have team with Roleplay on this server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Penny Sue 77 Posted November 14, 2012 Recommended? It's the only way to go IMHO. Pl@net DayZ is based in Sweden, active, and a great bunch of people. DayZRP seems to be very active! I'm in the process of getting whitelisted on there so no real experience yet. fpdayz is a fun server but not very popular. 112 vehicles so it's kind of a different gaming experience... more like Grand Theft Zombie =) Spend some time here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/forum/64-private-hive-discussion/Read players feed back. Go look up the stats on them... timezones, player activity, etc. You'll find some good places no doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leadon77 94 Posted November 14, 2012 Private is way better anymore...maybe with SA this will all be a mute point though.....(please let it be a mute point) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klesh 2423 Posted November 14, 2012 I have never played a private hive and I haven't had much in the way of issues whatsoever. It is definitely not the only way to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bean Marine 29 Posted November 14, 2012 Obviously if you find a Private Hive connected to a few servers because you would probably avoid hackers and more admins will probably be online... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leettari (DayZ) 133 Posted November 16, 2012 I have never played a private hive and I haven't had much in the way of issues whatsoever. It is definitely not the only way to go.That's debatable.You've been extremely lucky or you've just wasted a lot of time avoiding hackers and possibly server jumping.Private hives can offer so much more and obviously they are far more than public hives.Suppose it also depends how much you exactly play DayZ on a daily basis.

I log into one and play on it for the night unless there is lag or whathaveyou. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I log into one and play on it for the night unless there is lag or whathaveyou.You've still been lucky though. Very lucky if you havent been hacked at all. Regardless of whether you have/have not been hacked personally the fact is, you're MUCH more likely to have hacker problems on the public servers. And yeah I know how you feel OP about finding a high pop server then next day empty :( But the Zombies.nu servers are pretty much always full from what ive seen.

leettari (DayZ) 133 Posted November 16, 2012 My personal preference is private hive since I've encountered too much hackers on public hives for one lifetime. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regardless of whether you have/have not been hacked personally the fact is, you're MUCH more likely to have hacker problems on the public servers.I agree that its much more likely, to be sure. I have been hacked, twice I think, over the course of many many hours of gameplay. Both times I had top-level gear, and I look at it as sort of a blessing; keeping the game fresh for me and causing me to re-equip again. Game gets a little boring when you're lonewolfing, have 3 tents full of gear and 2 vehicles all to yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
