omgwtfbbq (DayZ) 1069 Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) I'm starting to hate the red messages from BattlEye saying that some person who I don't give a damn about is losing connection, and then an even bigger red message in the corner saying that person has been kicked for BattlEye not responding. There isn't a need for this to be there; I don't understand why it can't be disabled. It's a massive killer of immersion. In the apocalypse, I don't think I'd know if someone was losing connection to their life. It's even the same color as the messages that say "I am bleeding" or "I am dying of dehydration". They already got rid of the "X was killed" messages and global chat, so why is this still here? I'm not saying remove BattlEye, I'm saying remove the messages from BattleEye in the bottom left of the screen. I would only like to see the message in the corner if I was losing connection, not if joedash123 is losing connection. Explain your choice, plez Edited February 15, 2014 by omgwtfbbq 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leefriendfield 438 Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Ahh yes, those messages. I would apreciate an option to turn them off unlesss the message applies to myself. I could'nt give a rats ass to wether player Family PC is losing connection or not. Edited February 14, 2014 by LeeFriendField Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etherious 907 Posted February 14, 2014 They don't even bother me at all....I would only want them removed for streaming purposes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted February 14, 2014 I think it's good to have some info about the other players because this stream of info is more important than a side chat full of spam imo. Sometimes it's a laugher when you see xxx getting banned for using hacks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dusty_nuttles 130 Posted February 14, 2014 I was on a server today and got tricked into leaving. I thought it was my health; was getting messages like I'm dying of thirst, I'm feeling dizzy. Which I wasn't feeling any of those as I was completely healthy and realized after we logged out we got duped. Smart way to get people off the server.

crazykage 1063 Posted February 14, 2014 I would be fine with the battleye messages being removed, excepting when they apply to me. But I would STILL like to know when players are being banned due to hacks. I find it funny... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted February 14, 2014 remove the messages from BattleEye in the bottom left of the screen. I would only like to see the message in the corner if I was losing connection, not if joedash123 is losing connection. plox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FloydP 22 Posted February 14, 2014 Admins like to see them.I'd be OK with the 'player losing connection' message only being shown to the player.But I would like to see the message when he was removed and any messages pertaining to cheats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crooked Hauser 258 Posted February 14, 2014 The ones where the server admins post stupid shit drive me crazy."Welcome to DayZ, fresh meat noob... Your mom is in here." Blah blah whatever. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mdogg2005 447 Posted February 14, 2014 I would like to see not only players being banned, but players being killed (and possibly by whom). All the other messages that don't apply to me, I don't want to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Standalone is taking a more realistic approach to survival, by removing the blood meter and changing the hunger/thirst meters, so I don't understand why people still want messages saying who they killed or if the person died. I am all for a realistic push here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted February 15, 2014 I find them to be quite informative. I especially enjoy reading them when someone is kicked due to hack #x. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted February 15, 2014 I have also found a lot of comfort from those messages learning that I am not the only one being kicked from loss of connection on a frequent basis. If other players didn't have that kind of information you can expect a flood of posts here complaining about them losing connection all the time, while they think noone else seems to suffer from that. All in all I think the BattleEye messages provides very relevant information. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedDogMT 41 Posted February 15, 2014 It would be nice if their was a server side parameter to let the admins make the messages show up for everyone, admins, or no one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
