phionamercy 8 Posted June 23, 2013 I want to play the game the way the mod designers intended it.Default Churno map.Veteran.No side channel.No cross hairs or player mouse-overs.No extra vehicles.No extra guns or modified spawns.No custom bases.I want to play it on the current patch.And I don't want my vehicles to reset to their spawn location every time the server resets.And I want to play on a private hive so that people stop ghosting up behind me by switching servers so they can cross fields and kill-zones without being seen.I want the survival experience.I want to worry about not having enough antibiotics.Does this exist anywhere? Or is everyone just running a COD server?I found ONE server running 1.7.7 on a private hive on Veteran mode. CIA Gaming server...... but the vehicles reset every six hours when the server does, and there are way to many of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feral (DayZ) 622 Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) The holy grail as far as i'm concerned. A vanilla server with 3rd person/crosshairs/side chat disabled and the other features you mentioned.I too would love to know if such a server exists and would be interested in funding one if it doesn't.

Feral (DayZ) 622 Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) Yeah, was thinking about disabling it, but lost many players when I did...unfortunately far too many have come to rely on this crutch =(It would take some courage to go full hardcore, but there is a market out there for it I'm sure. A niche market admittedly, but you would get 100% of those who want the full experience as described by the OP. There must be a few hundred of us out there.

I don't play a bandit; and I've never murdered anyone (although I tried, and failed, once, with a crow-bar when I was desperate.)... I try to play a positive humanity character.And I don't want easy-mode. I don't want people to walk into a room, next to loot they need.. see a conga line of zombies .. and just head-shot each one as they come. It makes restarting to easy. It makes helping fresh spawns a pointless exercise rather then about trust building.I want the genuine experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phionamercy 8 Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) I was going by the link you sent me, reading it. You never modified the specs, and so I assume the information you send is what you want me to read and compare~ with regards to 3rd person? I don't have a huge problem with that, but only because the 'lean' option is so jerky that it's impossible to *not* get noticed when you do it.If it were possible, how it is in real life.. to slowly 'ease' into a lean, you might seem like a bush or something, or go entirely unregistered..But with DayZ's / ARMA II's lean mechanic?... I dunno.Also, most sound detection isn't precise in most people's head-sets. I'm lucky enough to have Dolbi-digital 3D sound in my head-set. (And I play on a 1080p TV with an HDMI cable from my PC) ... barring an easier lean, I don't really mind the 3rd person. It's also the one thing that gives you peripheral awareness around your character's immediate surroundings, where so often, you might get hung-up on something you can't even see with a glance.. because we don't have nerve-endings to our characters.

PM me when you found a private one...It's a Private Hive discussion forum~ will do though. I'm not interested in what people's intents are with their server, I'm interested in a set of hard-coded rules.. not telling people: "Sorry, this crap isn't allowed" kinda ruins the point of DayZ as a "people do what they can/have to/feel the need to do".I'd rather use hard methods of preventing people from doing behaviors in as many areas as possible, rather then saying: "Oh, we'll get angry at you if you ghost."That *doesn't* stop COD kiddies or combat loggers. Only the complete loss of access to something they care about does that - which is why the private hive guards the investment of those whom enjoy the theme.They become the gate-keeper to your prized DMR and your blue van.On an unrelated note:6-core i7 processor (12 virtual cores), 64 gigs of ram (100 gigs devoted to cache RAM on the OS specific 256 gig SSD drive.) two striped 256 drives running as one, and a 1 TB storage drive for my movies, music and video.Is it hard to host your own DayZ server? I saw a post on it once, but I really didn't understand it.. Edited June 23, 2013 by phionamercy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geogeorgegeo@hotmail.co.uk 50 Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) Search 'RU 68' and choose the Harcore1/2 server.I get 100 ping in NW Europe and it really depends on your location. However I noticed a couple of extra deerstands, this server is mostly the hardcore vanilla dayz with these exceptions.Search 'Day-z.pl' for a mercenary (hardcore) Polish server. Although there are several custom bicycle spawns in villages at the coast. Again, it is still the real dayz experience without 3rd person etc. The bicycles actually make the game a hell of a lot more fun because they are not too OP and get reset every server restart (to the coast) so you can't keep it forever. The other vehicles do not get reset. This server however does have quite a bit more custom things such as a firestation in Zelenogorsk but as I said before it is still the dayz experience.
