[DayZ] FearlessDOT - PRIVATE HIVE [VET] 100 slot!

ooooor not
"bad version, server rejected connection"
google time



soooo dayz isnt popping up in the beta version hrmm

On the ArmA2 main menu, does it show your beta version # in the lower right corner? How are you launching the game (steam, desktop shortcut, other)?

Launching beta version is the right patch (just following C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead and lauching the beta patch) but no dayZ. Launching from desktop shortcut wrong patch but has dayz.

Ok, do this:

1. Go to your ArmA2:OA folder, and rename the arma2oa.exe to something else, eg. arma2oa-nobeta.exe
2. Go into Expansion\Beta and copy arma2oa.exe from that location back out to the main folder
3. Edit your desktop shortcut that you use to launch DayZ so that it says this in the target field:

  Spoiler:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\arma2oa.exe" "-mod=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2;Expansion;Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion;@DayZ;" -nosplash

And then try that shortcut

All was going well untill it came time to change the shortcut. It says it was a web document?

It seems to be because the game was downloaded with steam.

Oh yeah, steam "shortcuts" aren't really shortcuts but just steam:// URLs. If you want a desktop shortcut that bypasses steam entirely, make a shortcut from arma2oa.exe and change the target to what I posted earlier.

Man, the graphic tearing/artifacting is so bad. Trying to find a solution now.

Grabbed an akm (3 mags) markov and a shit load of food/water/etc need a bigger bag. Not a bad night at all tbh

Changing video memory to 'default' seems to have fixed it for me.

You deserve the letdown.

So the weapon damages are totally fucked in this new version of ARMA II. If you didn't know, pretty much everything was significantly nerfed meaning all targets require more shots to bring down. For example, revolvers and 1911s used to be one shot kills on zeds, now it takes 4 shots. Four bloody shots from a .45 to bring down a zed! Pretty much all sidearms are pointless in practice now, especially against other survivors. Of course, most long range rifles seem to be unaffected so snipers will be even more dominant and desirable then they were before.

These changes are simply ridiculous and I suggest the server go back to the previous version of ARMA II in order to circumvent them.

Here is the list of all affected weapons if you are interested: http://www.fpsgeneral.com/news/dayz/...-ii-and-how-it
