DayZ Zombie RPG (Unofficial Mod) Alpha

[-=Grunt=-]

I just thought of this and wouldn't it be fun to have the more advanced weapons' parts lying around and then you can build them up into one weapon?

Like for example: G36C receiver, G36C barrel, and G36C stock combined together makes a gun.

I would also suggest:

Being able to use MP5 magazines with the MP5SD5 (I guess you guys could do what ACE does where it converts the magazine into "suppressed" ones once loaded into the gun) since the MP5SD5 doesn't need special subsonic ammunition.

Being able to use any 12 gauge shell with any of the in-game shotguns. I find it strange that you can't use 12 gauge 1866 ammo with the Remington 870 and M1014. Maybe swap the 15 round 12 gauge into an 8 round buckshot/slug item when you load it into the 870 or M1014? (Kinda like the ACE mag swap)

It's a crude workaround but it's better than not being able to use 12 gauge with all the shotguns.

Our server is run on donations...which I expect is how most servers run . Now the server is so packed our donating members cannot join.

AEF have got a second OZ server up, which should spread the great load

Just for the history..
I don't think IRL MP5SD weapon uses 'special' SD ammo.
The weapon itself its build that way that uses 'normal' ammunition while maintaining shooters detectability to near 'zero'


*please correct me if i m wrong

Nice mod, having fun with it, thanks for sharing!

The speed of the zombies and the zig-zagging bothers me a little, but I doubt there's much that can be done about that. I think I would eventually outrun a zombie in a real life situation. Maybe make them only pursue for so long?

I know you can't limit the use of global and side chat, but please don't include ACRE as some have suggested. I like in game VON much better. Keep it simple.

It changed my play style quick. I went from being nice to everyone I met to wanting to kill everyone I met within a few game sessions. I find that most people play aggressively and are annoying as well. I am OK with that... I can adapt.

Keep up the good work, this sparked the ARMA fire for me again... thanks!

I'm sorry to say but Battleye will be staying on the server..... with finding that other servers that have it off are been hacked with cheaters.
If you have problems with your battleye I would suggest to delete it and re-download it again.

That's true. Last night after hours of searching and running for my life, I had some great stuff plus a nice m240 only for someone to join the server and instantly kill everyone somehow, so we all lost our gear. That by far sucked worse than getting killed by some rabid hillbillies hiding around Cherna or Electro waiting for people to come by and shoot and probably cannibalize. :P

great mod, love the atmosphere
for the future i hope there will be "save spots" or some lockable containers available. like it is now, its far more "rewarding" and easier to just shoot other players and take their gear than playing it in a cooperative way.
does anyone know how to build/repair a car? we found lots of carparts but coulnd use them at carwrecks? how does this work?

[Rocket]

Pitch a tent, the cargo is synchronized with the database but will only be loaded on THAT instance (ie that server).

[RunForrest]

thx for the quick reply
can the tent be robbed or destroyed? do i respawn at the tent when dead? if not can one player setup more than one tent?
and what about the cars?
sorry so much questions

[Rocket]

Yes the tent can be robbed, choose a secluded spot.

This is not really a game as such, its more a social experiment. It's very brutal, when you die, you start again in a new character. You cannot packup another characters tent, only the character who pitched it can. Players can setup as many tents as they find.

[Beagle]

Social experiment indeed, but after what I seen in just 5 hours in this mission I have no faith in humanity anymore. Some kind of morale system is urgently needed in DayZ.
So far I meet only one player that did not shoot me for the gear i had gathered and that one just did not because he knew me from Warfare BE. Currently it turned out sadly that the safest way to deal with humans is to kill them and that somethingn I don't like...that's simply too much Hill Billy USA for me.
