Is there a way to favourite servers? I have a hard time joining one because they fill up immediately and apart from that, some are on a different patch version which makes it even more fiddley.

I usually find myself on a russian server or chicago/virginia. Brazil too but that was actually a pretty sweet ping

Heads up guys if you're updating to the new patch, there is a torrent for it located on the official website download page.

I heard that Combined Ops on Amazon for $20 was gone already?

Is there another place to get both cheaply at the moment?

Man...I'd love to play this game but between "waiting for character creation", getting stuck on 75-90% receiving data, and the general instability for when i finally do get in(got in on 1 server just to freeze and be told I was running 1.58 as opposed to 1.60.1 so I update to 1.60.1 and now the server won't let me join), I'm about through with this mod for now.
Limited Edition, lets do some simple addition, $50 for a T-Shirt is just some ignorant bitch shit.

I had a pretty similar experience, literally hours and hours without managing to successfully play. Just stick with it, pretty sure this prime time is pretty devilish on the master server so that might take awhile to retrieve all your character data especially considering the amount of other people joining a server, leaving and then joining a different one.

The receiving data, I don't know if it's an actual %. Sometimes it seems like a longer bar, sometimes it doesn't. You should stick to a server because you will be able to play within 10 minutes.


On my last character life, I sprinted through the dark a fucking mile, ran up a hill, ran a few more miles in some random direction (thanks to a bottle on W) and managed to end up where I fucking began where I decided to take the hill.

GG respawn, I'll just go find Elektro again.

So I put a little over a week (roughly 50 hours) into my last run before the invevitable. I tried so hard to stay alive, as I had just about every utility item, tons of ammo and some decent weapons. What got me was the bug where you log on and you're pretty much starving. I ran out of my last steak and I was nowhere near a town, so I spent a while running around looking for one. By the time I found a small settlement I was at around 4k blood and it was already hard to see with all the blur and heartbeat vibrations.

I found one can of soda and one can of beans, but I was so low on blood that it didn't help much at all. I ran through the small town and agro'd about 30 zombies, but it didn't matter with all the ammo that I had. With all the blur I couldn't scout around for cows/sheep effectively, and both of my water cantine's were empty without a lake/well in site. I'd honestly say that I just...gave up. I hadn't logged for a few days because I've been waiting for Rocket to fix the issue with tents, but it's been well over a week and who knows how much longer before they release a patch. With even more zombies swarming me I decided to make my final stand in the kitchen of a run-down home. I climbed the stairs and watched as they flooded in one by one until there were so many in the hallway that they overran me as I was reloading my Winchester. I killed well over 90 zombies before they finally reached the last step of the staircase and knocked me unconcious.

The odd part is I was actually relieved once I died. I had been alive for so long that it was almost a burden to have decent items as I was too afraid to venture to the more dangrous parts for fear of losing my gear. Some of the best items that I've found were from dead survivors or bandits that I had bested. It's almost a necessity, if you will, that I die and someone else recover my Alice pack. I died with a G17, a CZ550, a Winchester, and a ton of ammo for each weapon. I had NVG's, a Map, Survival Knife, Matches, Blood Pack(s), a Camping Tent - you name it. Man..whoever finds my body is sure as hell going to be happy.

But now I'm relieved to be back on the shoreline. I've already killed two bandits and one of them had been kind enough to deliver me a Winchester =]. I figure I'll begin my new life preying on the survivors/bandits around Chernogorsk/Elektro. Once I have my fill of Makarov Mags, Slugs and Beans, I'll probably slowly make my way North. This time I'll succeed in finally making it to the airfield, no matter what.

^ That's not a bug, but intended that your thirst and hunger increase over time even when logged off. I'm not sure why it was implemented, since it makes it terrible for those who play sporadically.

I have a post-apocalyptic first-world problem - With an AK74 Kobra as my primary and an AKM in my backpack, there's not much space for all my ammo and food and drink.

Need to get a coyote backpack soooon.

I found a couple of tents in the middle of nowhere, one of them was full of stuff: sniper rifle, makarov, tons of ammo for both guns, tons of cans, binoculars, flashlight, 1 bloodpack, painkillers, morphine, you name it. What were these tents doing there? Anyway I managed to get some useful items, so it's all good.
Although it seems that you can't have a handgun + a flashlight, you have to choose one of the two, am I correct or did I do something wrong?

This game has it's technical flaws that can be quite frustrating however it also has been the most fun I've had playing a game in a long time.

I can't explain how much excitement you feel sneaking past zombies.. avoiding players.. teaming up with players.. killing bandits.. it is quite a thrill. The deaths are painful and really make you fight with all you have to survive.

Yea, the flashlight takes up the same slot as the sidearm, so you can't have both.

The tents you found were placed by other players to store their stuff in.

You can always stash the Flashlight in your pack and swap it with your handgun if need be.

Well the thing is I logged on one server, found myself starving, and I ate my last steak. I switched to another server and when I loaded in I was starving again. If they really intend for you to log in starving and dying of dehydration then that's pretty stupid imo. It hasn't happened every time I've logged on/off though is the thing, only sometimes.

Great videos haha, I`m on the fence, waiting until things improve a bit, like 1/2 year or so before trying it. Is there a way to support the developers? Do not feel like giving my money just to the Arma guys.

With the new patch, do murderers turn into bandit skins anymore?

Honestly man I am not going to trust anyone anymore...I was taken out to a barn and shot in the head like a dog. I guess my Lee Enfield was quite a prize...

Bandit skins have been removed, you can pick up specific skins now. I found a ghilie suit and civilian clothing. Well to make you feel better, the Enfield is the most powerful rifle at the cost of being the noisiest of them all. You would probably alert a whole town of zombies if you fire that thing. =) There is also an issue after the patch where I would get severe frame rate issues after playing on the server for awhile, starts out perfectly fine but dips suddenly to unplayable standards.

On the other hand, had a good run before. We had a group of 3 heading towards from Elektro to Stary Sober's medical tents, unfortunately we lost one along the way due to server issue, resulting in a death. We continued and decided to swing north to the inclined forest area of the military medical tents above the chainlinked fence to perform some recon, as we approached there were shots. Slowly moving through the forest to get a better view of the area, we stumbled upon a fresh unlooted corpse(Murderer skins are removed); this pretty much where the paranoia and apprehension sets in as we were talking over teamspeak. Anyway, my teammate keeps watch while I check his inventory and found nothing of use. As we stopped at a dominating position overlooking the tents, more shots fired and I spot a lone player at the tents.

My teammate has a M4 CCO and I only had my Makarov, so we stalked the player briefly while hes looting. After the lone survivor/bandit killed the zombies he had aggro, my teammate took the shot... One round straight to the temple and he fell in front of the tents. I decided to go forward to confirm and loot while he keeps watch concealed in the tree lines. Checking his pack, this guy was pretty much set for an expendition, he basically had everything except for a set of NVG. I grabbed all the essentials; blood pack, some meat, ammo for his M4, AKM with a ridiculous amount of ammo and got the hell out of there. We went north to the nearby deer stands, looted and decided to kill Dolly for more delicious red meat and set up a camp fire to feed ourselves. My framerate was abysmal for awhile, at the tents too so we decided to end it here.

My teammate actually saw more players run into the town center but luckily either they did not see us or just waited for us to leave.

Apparently the guy that developed this mod works for Bohemia now.

Based on some non-scientific experimentation with the Makarov PM (was running rambo on a fresh respawn, just for the fun of it), it seems to have a tendency to pull upwards and to the left at ranges longer than 40-50m. For slightly more reliable headshots any ranges longer than that (edit - beyond, say, 70m it's just not reliable at all) try aiming for the target's left shoulder (assuming that the target is facing you).

I actually don't know how bullet spread works in arma 2, but I doubt it's completely randomized. If it is then I just got 'lucky' with my Makarov that has slightly more predictable behavior.

I just went to the Military camp near Starry Sobor and there were weapons all over the floor, result! Sadly, I took too long picking which gun I wanted and apparently 20 guns isn't enough for 2 people so clearly the other fella had to shoot me in the back.

I think what would help with the SHOOT EVERYBODY!!!!11!! trend that has been occuring lately is Direct Comms working and servers that were voice only. It just takes too long to type "Friendly?" and even then they may not even notice. Also typing things like "Hey, have you got any spare food? Because I'm dying here" is a lot more effort than just shooting the other guy to find out the answer.

It also adds a much more human element to the players in the world as hearing someone talk is much more personal than reading them type. I'm not sure what other people think about this but it's definitely something I'd want to see.
