ARMA II Mod - Day Z

[Viribus]

I was on the Broski TS

I'm so sorry

[Blawrf]

I'm running around a place called Solnichiy and I have no idea what i'm doing

That city sucks.

[Centra]

The main cities you want to hit are Cherno, Elektro, Zeleno, and Stary Sobor. You will always find people to help you or kill you.

The PL hosted Day Z server is now up. It's run out of Sweden.

[Stronke]

Were the servers bit shaky to day? Had a lot of "waiting for server to reply"

[Centra]

SE1, SE2, SE3, and SE4 are all hosted by PL. The servers are getting hammered by players now. Your first character on a server usually takes a while to create.

[Stronke]

playing in the dark is hard, and i'm scarred just following a coast line

[Blawrf]

I'm just sitting for a spot on SE1 for now

Find a server with the moon out (most preferable) or stars out (second preference), then max your gamma and put brightness at 85%.

[Blawrf]

I just killed my first dude :allears: Found him on PL's SE2, crouched in a military base.

TIPS FOR NEW GUYS, DONT TRY TO LOOT TENTS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CITY

[Blawrf]

Best way to get matches for a fire or something? I have like 2k blood left and I found an m4a1 and a compass and a hunting knife I don't want to die

[Blawrf]

I remember seeing some med-tents west of Chern. I'll go check there.

[spoiler=Bandits][/spoiler]

[Konev]

holy fucking zombie numbers. nighttime gonna be horrid without NVGs now

[Propagandas]

i had 21kills aswell beofre i got 0wnd on casterly rock

[xutech]

how many zombies do you get now? I should really get a copy of this sometime.

[Stronke]

Most I seen was just over 300 zombies, and this was a bit past twelve night time

[Blawrf]

how many zombies do you get now? I should really get a copy of this sometime.

Earlier today I was in SE5, I think, PL's server. Count touched 500 zombies which was 200~ more than anything I saw before today.

It's taking 15mins plus in order to load into a server, now, and when I do load in I can't move or look around.

[Internet Spaceships]

Rocket released the 1.5.7 patch last night which fixed a zombie spawn bug. Unfortunately, it also tripled/quadrupled the number of zombies that spawn. Clusters of two or three houses are reporting to be surrounded by 30ish zombies, with normal barns containing up to 10. Good luck firing a gun in Cherno or Elektro without getting raped

Apparently the rocket didn't intend to create this many zombies, and rushed this patch out to address a few other issues. I'd imagine in the next few days zombie counts will be balanced in an upcoming patch.

[Stronke]

Playing on SE3 at the moment for those about to play.

e; fucking "waiting on server response" is the only annoyance for me so far with this game but then it might be my wireless internet :/

Everyone has that. I'll pop onto SE3 asap.

[Stronke]

Tried my luck with SE4, its not better but the voig is fucking fun.

e; is having a bunch of squares on your screen and not being able to move normal to?

[Blawrf]

That happens when the main character server gives up trying to cache your character, I think. People call it Waitingwood or something v0v.

so I should disconnect?

I'd really like some daylight playing time as last night did not ended well

[Blawrf]

Yeah, i've just noticed that all of the PL (SE#) servers are classed as "waiting" rather than "playing." Gonna try another server. You from the EU?

e: trying DE1, same again

[Stronke]

I am indeed.

e; trying a rather empty us7 server.
e; loaded on a us13 one
e; ffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu now it tells me to update and I am hungry and thirsty. Why am I so bad at computers

[Blawrf]

Yeah, loading on US13. I'm gonna make for Stary Sobor here

[Stronke]

Upon loading it tells me I am still missing a sound file, I was just suposed to copy that one code v1.5.7 zip file over the files in the @dayz folders right?

[Blawrf]

I re-copied them all and didn't have a problem.

[Stronke]

I re-copied them all and didn't have a problem.

There were three zips to unpack.

900 zombies, weeeee

e; fuck I was looting some lewtz in a house, got attacked while trying to figure out how to drag items into my inventory, panicked, trew my pistol on the floor instead of reloading and died

[Blawrf]

yeah, I was in Kamyshovo when I heard shots fired. Cringed, looked around the corner and saw a survivor being trailed by 30~ zombies. We went into the same house, I helped him kill them then more spawned - we literally couldn't kill them fast enough. On US13 there's a house north of Kamyshovo with at least 150 zombie corpses inside.

[Don Peyote]

This game reminds me of EVE in that it's a lot of fun to read stories about, and watch videos of. I bet if I got the game then I'd hate it hate it hate it hate HATe HATTETE HATE AHTEOATAEKGTADGLAMDGKADFGASD HATE EVE ONLINE no really it looks good will deffo consider getting it

[Phineas Freak]

the most funny thing is to stream it and watch the tards in chat complaining that "nothing is happening", but they stay there for hours begging you to tell what server you are on and if you are on the way to the airfield or not.

[Konev]

seen the NZ server hit over 1k zombies. getting near the NE airfield is damn hard now, have to rely a lot of glass bottles and smoke to sneak into tight areas.

great thing about it is that it will flush out the city tower snipers.

[Stronke]

So it is safe to say we all love the zombie increase?

[Blawrf]

Having zombies that move at five times the speed of light AND having the increase is a bit much.

[Stronke]

For some reason I can not get past "waiting on server response" when trying to join PL hosted servers. In fact it is hard for me in general to load on European hosted servers.

[Stronke]

I do not get it, I tried six different servers mixed locations and non would load, tried the same server as yesterday and loaded fine :/

oh well alpha

[Arrador]

Stronke, Its probably all that gay porn you have. Gotta get rid of that. You can send it to me.

Fucking xhamsters.com

[Stronke]

Got me some matches, two canteens, 8 pistol clips, couple cans of beans and a some bandages and other healing stuff but I can not seem to find a map or compass

I tried to leave my safe zone that is the coast line, and venture deeper inside by tagging along with a couple other people. But nearly getting all player killed by some sniper in a tower trying to reach this military base I said fuck it, and ran back trough the woods to my trusty old light house

[Konev]

look in supermarkets for compass, map and knife.

should be in zelenogorsk (south end) elektro, berezino (southwest end CBD area) and probably stary.

those are the ones ive found so far.

[Stronke]

Cheers, I'll check those sites out. Got bandit killed last night and lost all my shit because it was dark, I was stoned and had the brilliant idea of running about with a flare in my hands. It did not ended well for me.

I am thinking of staying on a daylight server until I got a map (it seems it also shows the zombies on the map if playing on normal) and/or a night vision. Because even when i cheat and krank up my gamma etc I can still hardly see shit let alone detect things on the ground.

Dunno if its still effective with today's game. But back when F.E.A.R was released, I actually turned down alot of the graphic settings in multiplayer and cranked up the gamma. This was to counter faggots with the 50mm repeating cannon hiding in corners/shadows that were pitch black. Turning the graphics and disabling ambient lighting turned off all the shadows, and everything good be seen quite normally.

[Agathor]

I have bought this game and I am training to make my useful. Might take few days hehe.

[Gyncognito]

ARMA II: CO went to number one top seller on steam today...wtf have you guys done?

[Stronke]
