Are the people that are killing you guys with firearms bots/NPCs or are they other players that are griefing? If another player kills you do they get to loot your gear? Typically how hostile are other players to each other? Is it just customary to shoot on sight for most people? I'm just trying to get a feel for how the mod plays out with people.

Also, is the data that points to your character server specific or can you go from one server to the next with the same character? I'm just a little confused by the off server data storage comment by the mod creators.

Just out of curiosity, is the server yours or just a random one that you guys chose? The name certainly made me think that it was just part of a cluster of servers or something. If its yours are there any plans to increase the max number of players?

Well, the server is "mine" in that I paid for the first month to try it out. CitizenQ and Johnny_dox_exe have admin rights. The goal was to get a stable server we could play on, and so far I think the guys at HFB have a pretty good platform. I might suggest a daily reboot or two to keep memory leak issues, data corruption issues, etc. to a minimum - but as fast as hotfixes are coming out, we're updating and rebooting anyway frequently. Assuming we keep it, we'd want to decide if we keep a single owner with an admin group, or give ownership to some generic ID/account - not sure how that would be set up.

Long term, I think there are people who would be interested in contributing to the server. There are some things to iron out:

Pros

- having a regular server means people generally know where to go and we can work on long term assets like tents and vehicles
- no worries about admin asshattery
- we have control over settings, patch level and client requirements

Cons

- ownership/admin: we have volunteers, but management by committee always has issues
- just because we all pay for it doesn't mean it won't be full all time time, locking us out until a spot frees up
- we have 25 slots now, may want to change to 50 (I think we can do this and keep our ID)
- right now, we don't have the GMT setting on the server we want and are waiting to see if we can adjust it
- need to develop a system for regular payment/donations

I think we should do 50 man if possible, we have 20+ who play pretty often on our server. The 50 man servers have seemed pretty stable today running the 1.7.1.5 patch. I will also donate all money my youtube makes into the server fund, but I would also like a deticated TS3(or mumble if you want to be good) and will foot the bill for that one monthly if we wanted to use it

I would vote for upping the server to 50 slots. It's not that much more cost-wise, and with the amount of people we have playing I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem having people donate.

I would suggest setting up a Pay-Pal account to pay for the server from. I'm not sure how we would want to hand out account info for that (i.e. server owner has access etc..), but having a running tally for each month's costs/ deposits would be good.

Dedicated VOIP service would probably be good also, so that the server isn't dependant on others for voice comms. Then it could be passworded full time and we wouldn't have to deal with /much/ trolling and/or shenanigans.

Server rules by vote of regular players?

Any word on when our server will be going to .5? My bet is HFB will do forced updates around 11PM-1AM when everone is on.

Hey DJ what is the name of the TS server?
I think people should be allowed to do anything they want. We haven't tried that for a while. Maybe this time it'll work.

Since this update my rig which would usually hold steady around 50-60 FPS drops down to 20 or below and stays there.

Any reason for this.

We already have a TS server that has all the security we need. There is no sense in paying for a new one.

There is a reason, I think, we went with 25 man slots instead of 50. One, being price I'm sure, but overall 25 slots have been far more enjoyable than the 50's we've played on.

Just my thoughts.

I think the problem is that you have no control, and when something came up and you were asked to stay quiet, you did not and got muted. That's the only problem you've had, and suddenly you want a dedicated TS. TS is dedicated, it has a password, and it has admins on constantly.

But I don't really care, we pay the bills for our TS and our servers, and our website. I offered it and people used it. You can use it or not.

Though it was already stated multiple times that "we are not moving forums or ts" so.

I can't see any servers tonight. This is lame. DayZ website is down so I can't access their forum to see if there is a fix. It worked fine last night. Updated to the new beta patch and DayZ version and login and I get no servers.

If you can't see any servers you've probably installed something wrong.

It was working fine the night before last. All I did today was update the beta patch and the mod files. I can't see any servers in regular Arma 2 either. I'll try reinstalling from scratch tomorrow. I can connect to servers manually and the game works fine. Other than updating the files I didn't do anything and before that it was working fine.

Got to play for a bit on a UK server tonight in the daylight. It seems pretty cool so far but the inventory system is atrocious IMO. They really need to work on it. I found a double barrel shotgun and a bunch of ammo and then accidentally dropped my ammo which apparently unloaded my shotgun as well. I picked up the ammo without reloading the gun (didn't know I needed to) and when I came upon a zombie I couldn't shoot it or reload.

At first I was like, man this is way lonely w/o global chat. Then I realized that local chat can be audio now. So fuck yeh. Nothing like rolling up to a stranger and going Yo man, don't shoot dawg and then they don't shoot. Also, I had 5 murders tonight and like 7 deaths so I'm doing great with all the changes. Can't find shit for food or water though. wtf.

1 - your food/water don't tick down when you log out any more
2 - I raided the Kelenagorska supermarket today and have a half dozen or so cans of food and even more drinks in my new alice pack

I made my way into what appears to be a decent sized town and my computer is slowed down to shit there. Anybody else have this problem? I have a quad core Q8400 overclocked to 3.4GHz and a GTX 460 video card (also overclocked) and 4GB of RAM. It's pretty slow (almost unplayable) and jerky in town despite turning down a lot of the graphics options like post processing.

It was fairly smooth in the outlying areas of course with much higher graphics settings.

Try a different server. FPS lag like that is usually a result of poor server performance or a problem with the build, though I think the current one is fine (and improving recently).

Your rig *should* run this game fine, but your 4gb of RAM is definitely a bottleneck in your system. These days you'll want at least double that.

In your game's video settings make sure both resolutions match, post-processing is off, and maybe tweak a few other settings. Sometimes a card that should run the game on high will stutter with dayz when those settings are all maxed out which is the game's/mod's fault. If you're running in windowed mode then disable vsync.

Server might need a reboot.

It's pretty slow (almost unplayable) and jerky in town despite turning down a lot of the graphics options like post processing.

It was fairly smooth in the outlying areas of course with much higher graphics settings.


Dont run on max settings. Also set video memory to default.

Your rig *should* run this game fine, but your 4gb of RAM is definitely a bottleneck in your system. These days you'll want at least double that.

In your game's video settings make sure both resolutions match, post-processing is off, and maybe tweak a few other settings. Sometimes a card that should run the game on high will stutter with dayz when those settings are all maxed out which is the game's/mod's fault. If you're running in windowed mode then disable vsync.


4GB is fine as long as ARMA is the only program using more then 400mb of memory.

I'm going to enable twice-daily reboots, just for issues like this.

Dont restart it yet though. It would be awesome that through this glitch the server is daytime at night!

Just for today lets try it out and see what happens.

Scheduled restarts 2 - 4 times a day are probably the way to go. It forces the server to reset the day/night conditions for all players, so that some players are playing at daytime while others can't see anything because its night.

I'm gonna feel like a complete tard for posting this, but I figured out why I couldn't see the servers... I was running peerblock. I always run it when I run Utorrent and I had downloaded the newest DayZ patch last night.
Please tell me what you had for breakfast.

Citizen, tiny, and whoever else has night vision. You guys getting on tonight? I think we should raid a few towns tonight when the server is getting empty so we can stock up on food/drinks.

Someone PM me or something if we end up with spare nightvision. Not likely and kind of a lot to ask, I know, but without it I basically can't play the game on our server.
