Problem is, and go ask around the community, that half the players playing ZA1 and 2 have horrible lag. This is either server performance itself, or ISP related, I would'nt know. ZA3 and 4 are smooth as silk. Heck, it's even discussed on the Dayz South Africa Reddit page.
Then again, it's been a while since my group has played on Za1 or 2 so this could have been rectified by now, we pretty much only play Lingor now.
All the people who join pls remember to make sure you know the lyrics to Rebecca Black, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber etc songs! Ask Lyt for help, I think he knows it now :)Quote:

Just curious, because one or two people I've spoken with actually sound like they have a grudge against the server for some reason.
I don't know what is going on there now, but I used to play on ZA5 Normal DayZ until maybe 2 months or so ago.Quote:

Lingor is fun to go on and play and hunt the regulars when I want a change of scenery. Still its not easy for new ppl when 3/4 of the server plays as 1 group (regulars) and basically controls the map. +10 to Matt thou
I sang only Justin Bieber and Britney Spears :P. The other guy sang rebecca black. And you guys robbed us!!!!!Quote:

I want to see if I can't set up a regular server restart schedule again as well as have a look at the spawns on the server. I don't know how everyone feels about it, but I think the current three helicopter spawns are way too much for a map that is only 80 square kilos, as it grants way too much power to whoever is holding it, especially seeing as having a helicopter makes it really easy to go find the others. It becomes an issue of whoever has the helicopters controls the map and the rest of the people just have to hope they don't get spotted.
If anyone has some more feedback, or has a bit more sensitive feedback that you don't really want to express in public, feel free to PM me. I really do appreciate your input. Without a PC to play the game on, I'm pretty much helping to run the server for you guys, so I don't draw any benefit from it other than knowing you guys are having a fun time. ;)
Rofl, It was not me who robbed u, but someone else might have needed food and like grenades :pQuote:

What we actually need I think is ISP's to drop servers and have @ most 1 server each and no Regular crap ones either.
Or one proper private hive server for all the legit players to gather and play on. Something like the Byrgesen Gaming Community.
Standalone is still months away :(
