mzltv 2281 Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) I'd recommend using DayZ Commander pal - it'll show you the ingame time, what types of map, and it's generally alot easier to use in terms of updating/downloading maps and the DayZ code.You'll also be able to see which servers have a good latency, and in the server name, it can even outline what the server is about (ie. PVP, PVE, SAFE ZONES, START WITH GOOD LOOT!, etc..)http://www.dayzcommander.com/ Edited January 4, 2013 by mzltv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ado4334 1 Posted January 4, 2013 Find a white-listed private hive if you want to avoid cheaters.Sorry for my bad knowledge of DayZ but im guessing white listed means everyone's been checked and is not a hacker. Woud i have to be checked etc to be whitelisted too before i can join one of these hives? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most will have a website/email for you to submit your GUID which you can grab by typing in '#BEClient GUID' in chat. It's not fool proof but it's a lot of effort for someone to go through just to get banned and means they can't just change CD keys and rejoin instantly.

terminal_boy 860 Posted January 4, 2013 (/): Type in chat. Use "Side chat" for global communications, though be aware, Side chat and Global chat are not available on most servers. How to leave the server. Press Escape to bring up the menu.Press Abort and then Yes.Press Escape to bring you back to the lobby.Press OK on that screen.From the incredibly useful DayZ Wiki..http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/A_Beginners_Guide#The_Controls 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
