This could be awesome.

Dont reinstall whole game if using steam version

uninstall battle eye via program files and then reinstall battle eye via steam

That worked for me

Majorly mad.

Day 4, 480 kills and I log into the GTA server to find ive died and am in the wilderness.
Rejoined and I was 14,000 away from my position
Ran all the way back to my hideout only to get shot by someone who somehow knew how to find me. Lost about 10 guns, 2 vehicles, including my forever loved m4a1 CCO SD

Walked another 14,000 back to the same spot on a different server (daylight) and there was another camp there, got myself a DMR and a few other things. Hopped back to the GTA server and my weapons and backpack had disappeared..

Talk about unlucky.

I still haven't had a proper session, need to get onto that when i get on my other connection.
Because on this one the Ping for every server is 9999 hahaha.

Like I mentioned (hopefully) that sh*t didn't work with just reinstalling Battleye.


Anyway, after deleting and installing everything again I finally found out that it was my router settings that wouldn't let me play. Not Battleye at all.

Dont trust anyone not even your own gang mates lol

[fullmetal]

Shall I wait for the standalone game to come out and get that or get ARMAII with the necessary DLC and get into the mod asap?

Don't know... something (which I don't know what it is) is holding me back from getting it now. Maybe other games/alot of interesting movies/series I'm following right now but yeah.

[Knife]

It will probably be a while before the standalone version is out I'd think, even in Alpha or whatever. If you can get it at a good price I'd say buy it, but I'd be more reluctant for the full Steam/Normal price.

[Fnorg]

I paid full price and feel I've got my money's worth. Haven't even touched Arma yet, which I actually was interested in before DayZ so there's that, too.

[Remix]

Anyone here going to Gamescon?

[fullmetal]

That's next week already. sh*t, was planning on going. Got to have to hear around quickly who else wants to join in from the few people I know that possibly want to go aswell.

I really planned on going to Gamescom this year but I didn't realise it was getting so close.

So that's why you were recording.

Not really sure if you planned it beforehand. Anyway, I heard my own voice - the microphone I used was such a piece of crap, got a new one instead.

To the Gamescom - I won't go there, but I'll be at the London Gaming Expo, hope I'll see some DayZ stuff there too.

P.S. Has anybody tried the new Lingor map? It looks pretty cool, when I played it, I found my first vehicle in DayZ. Broke it in seconds.

[DeeperRed]

Looks like WarZ announcement and the break of a million users made BI finally see some sense and give Rocket what he needs.

I have trust in him were going to see some sweet things and I love the fact there using the mine-craft model. Rocket really does love his community, the feedback is really going to craft it

I have no idea what this mine craft model is since I've never played that game myself. I take it its something close nit with the community? As for it being announced that it will be a stand alone game is awesome. Really enjoying the game anyway, so really looking forward to them implementing some new stuff into a game and fixing bugs and stuff.

I don't play it either but the model is you invest in its alpha/beta stage, and then it just keeps on growing with more and more features and refinement. Not dissimilar to the current way Dayz.

However it should be far better due to Rocket crafting the engine to his needs unlike currently where he is crafting his needs around the engine. He will also have a dedicated team so patches will be of much higher standard and it will also allow rocket to focus on new game-play mechanics, so the game will constantly be evolving (much like it did in the earlier stages of the mod).

The reason the minecraft model is so good is because when your giving people alphas/betas you pretty much have loads of people testing it, and a constant for of form of feedback about what features don't work on a whole, what do work. It allows Rocket to have great experimentation as the product is not finished, so he could try something radical that could be amazing (also could try something that completely fails). It wouldn't work for every game but something like Dayz where theres millions of possibilities it will be great to have an ever expanding game where your a part of its creation.

I hope/expect the alpha he makes public to us will be far more stable then what we currently have in terms of bugs. It still won't be finished in the way of features (and maybe map) but bugs won't be as prevalent.

[.Trooper.]

Triple, Oyster n some others still play? I've been through my fair share of camps and vehicles... I'm at the stage were I snipe bandits in Elektro, and occassionally random noobs too Although I just got counter-sniped and died to some guy with a big gun.


My next step is to try and get a helicopter... I don't think it'll happen anytime soon

[Rebel]

I've never gotten a ride yet. I'm not counting the time when I was with a hacker who spawned a heli, bikes, 4 wheelers and all that jazz. I've found a sweet spot between 2 barns that I can run back and fourth between. I'm kind of unwilling to explore further due to this.

[toca349]

When was the last server restart please?

[oysterbarron]

According to my data it was the 3rd haven't restarted it since then and the graph shows it hasn't gone down since then either.
