Pherion 1 Posted June 3, 2013 Pretty much what the title says. Does anyone know of a server where it is forbidden to rob and steal things from you're camp/tents?I was only able to find one server with this rule, I was wondering if there are more like these. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gambla 118 Posted June 3, 2013 You could try Origins. There are several servers (i only know german/english) with safe base camps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dappadan95 332 Posted June 3, 2013 That would be boring IMO, but yeah try origins like gambla said Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pherion 1 Posted June 3, 2013 Not for me. I hosted a server for myself and my friends and we had a blast. For once, we could actually make bases, keep vehicles and gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steam_Power 42 Posted June 3, 2013 Not for me. I hosted a server for myself and my friends and we had a blast. For once, we could actually make bases, keep vehicles and gear.Thats nice, but Dayz is all about loss and struggle. It's about a "realistic" immersion of what would happen in the event of a real situation like this, I dont think anyone would agree to safe zones in real life.. Regardless I'm not here to shatter your view, I just simply cant agree with it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creature 1189 Posted June 3, 2013 That's not easy to enforce unless you have someone watching everyone on the server 24/7.I could create a "safe zone" on my server if you're interested. Anyone entering the area would get teleported away. Unfortunately, it's usually pretty dead but I don't really advertise it. I should start. lol. Running Tavi right now with Sarge's AI, debug monitor, clear weather, added buildings, vehicles and a few hidden bases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heathcz 84 Posted June 3, 2013 Anything like safe zones and forbidden killing or robbing is such a bullshit I cant even stand it. It kills all major aspects of dayz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pherion 1 Posted June 3, 2013 Dayz lacks other realism aspects. Why aren't there like a 1000 vehicles? Is it a zombie apocalypse or a nuclear one? Most vehicles should be in good condition to use. And even if there were 1000 vehicles, and only 30 players, a new player would never find a vehicle, because groups/clans like doing vehicle collections....And how is getting shot from nowhere or robbed good? Just creates a very deep frustration inside of me that's enough to make me stop playing for months and return later only for the same shit to happen again.Players are far more interested on killing one another then zombies. Some server look like Counter Strike really, only difference is that it's zombie edition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Statik (DayZ) 2695 Posted June 3, 2013 You have a weird concept of what DayZ is. Just hide your stuff good. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wooly-back-jack 294 Posted June 3, 2013 probably less chance of getting robbed on my server as the loot table have been slightly altered by one of my admins to make it more worthwhile visiting barracks etc, nothing more disappointing than taking such a risk getting to the barracks and finding M1014's, binoculars and tin cans lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pherion 1 Posted June 4, 2013 You have a weird concept of what DayZ is. Just hide your stuff good.Perhaps. To me Dayz is kinda flawed from the start. I'm just trying to "fix" it.I just can't understand why playing for dozens of hours and then shit hits the fan and I lost everything and have to restart is fun...Just thinking about it makes me not want to leave the coast and remain in cherno forever.

tsam 12 Posted June 4, 2013 There is some private hive servers with a script called 'thunderdome' which adds a forcefield around a base so you cant actually get near it never mind look at the gear. Look for some servers with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gambla 118 Posted June 4, 2013 Anything like safe zones and forbidden killing or robbing is such a bullshit I cant even stand it. It kills all major aspects of dayzThat's only your opinion and doesn't stand for all players. And i can't remember Rocket saying that loosing all of your stuff (sooner or later) is a major aspect of DayZ.You guys are claiming it's not realistic but never spend a minute thinking about it. In a real world scenario like this, i'd just dig a simple hole, put my stuff in a plastic bag and bury it.Place some flowers on top or whatever. What do you think your chances are finding it ?After playing DayZ Vanilla for a year, scavening stuff just don't make sense anymore, you loose it anyway. And what else do people do: PVP. That's why i love Origins, the safe houses represent my earth holes, where i can safely hide my stuff. And that's what i'd do as a true Survivor in such a world.

I went to their website but I couldn't find anything about their Servers like features or rules. Could you perhaps link me to their rules/feature page please?

gambla 118 Posted June 4, 2013 I can't as i haven't found it myself. The major features are that you scavenge some materials and build a house, second are some custom Mad-Max-Vehicles. Before you do this, you have to gain humanity as Hero or loose it to become a Bandit. And this is the second advantage, most people try to become heros, so only a few bandits will KOS. Even this is imho more realistic as a server full of serial killers. You just need to download and copy the @... folder, then let DayZCommander do the rest. Don't read too much about it, keep the suspense... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In a real Zombie Apocalypse if ever happens, you wouldn't kill people randomly unless your a psychopath or simply like helping zombies.. Again, Dayz failing on realism.

Pherion 1 Posted June 4, 2013 I checked the ping and it was good. But everything is in german. D :Is there a way to change language? Do people speak in english in game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gambla 118 Posted June 4, 2013 It's not my own Server and no english forum version yet, but i can help you through. I've just seen that they now ask for joining Teamspeak: TS: 85.114.154.14:10391for getting whitelisted. I better ask them before if they can/like to speak english. Please wait.
