I still like my private hive laughingman server, as you get to know the community somewhat and who's douche and not, where people like to be etc.

How large is the in-game community on a regular night? How long is the approval process to get on the server?
What DayZ ver is the server running and..... and I'm probably down. You and I can get together.

I will stick with bikes and Zombies for now.

lol... the chopper is way beyond me as well... I can fill it up with fuel though

I'm amazed at some of the skill these players have with the chopper.

We were all like you once, honestly.
Just don't be a ****ing reerun... learn... let's not sneak into town to hit the grocery store only to have you fire off a Lee Enfield round
Ya know what I'm sayin?

this looks awesome. How does one get in on this?

not sure if my comp can run it though

I am on a server that nobody else is on that is fantastic. What do you guys need for me to post so that you can join?

Another problem is how to find each other.

I am running on a basic I5 laptop with 6 gb ram and the Intel 3000 graphics (Nvidia 520 or 525m).


Settings are all low but it still works awesome.

It's an old ass game. You should be fine.

wait, so you have to buy Arma2 first in order to play this? I'm trying to install it, it's telling me I have to spend $30 on another game first?

all 3 servers are basically full any time I go to play, server 1 and 2 are non whitelist, server 3 is whitelist. I usually play on server 2, but will play 3 when I have a group and we are being serious. Got fully geared last night and then randomly shot in the face :X

Whitelist is instant approval via bot on website

I finally figured out how to view in the 3rd person.


The game just got 100 times easier.

I am exploring the city without a problem. The only time there is an issue is when the game decides I need to randomly stand up when entering certain buildings.

Finding one another shouldn't be a issue once you know the map...
Cherno, Elektro, and the north air strip are places everyone should know.

bookmark this map

Once you've actually obtained a map in the game and have a compass.. you can mark locations on the map (according to long and lat). It's easy.

Ha you been running in first person! Dang. Third person is the game, also double tap - on your num pad to get a zoomed FOV.

If you join the mumble I posted earlier, and add me on steam - Falxsonoma, anyone who wants to play, its quite easy if you actually try to hook up, my steam is on 24/7. I am going out to dinner tonight but will put in some time starting around 8-9pm.

holding "alt" enables free view... crucial for sneaking around in, of course, 3rd person mode.
