Fucking hell, that's one flippin massive update, nice one[emoji5] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

So, DayZ. The game that made me buy a PC. I played the mod back in the summer of 2012. It was a mod of Arma 2 and it was free and it was awesome. The first time I spawned on the beach of Chernarus is my favourite and most memorable ever experience in a video game. It’s one of those experiences I have been looking for ever since. The mod was so good, and it spawned a number of offshoots, some on different maps, such as Navalsk, the snowy mountainous region and Taviana a map that was utilised into the DayZ Origins mod. I loved all the mods, though initially I only had a laptop which would overheat in less than 2 hours. The mod had a lot of glitches, it was famous for it, and though it was being worked on all the time, we all demanded a standalone version. And we got a standalone, early access. The standalone has since taken on a life of itself, it’s been slow progress. But I think it has finally turned a corner. I logged in last night to try out the latest patch. New patch = character wipe = spawning for the first time with a new character I logged in, spawned my new guy in at dusk in a mist covered field and - unusually for me - was unable to get my bearings straight off. I wandered to the edge of the field and found myself by a graveyard next to a church I have never seen before. I started to get that old DayZ feeling back. Atmospheric and strange noises all around me, a few zeds wandering around in the distance, twigs snapping and shit like that. I felt like I was really there. The graphics are awesome, as are the sound effects. I love how the trees and grass sway with the wind. It was really really spooky. I think I’ve fallen back in love with the game. And more is to come this year

Today fear will once again trump decency. Front pages are even more mental than yesterday. Quite shameful. Morning all[emoji111] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

So patch 0.62 is now released, the final one I think before the game moves into Beta. Progress has been slow to say the least.

That'll be it then. In the top right corner of the launch options tab, select "Advance settings" and you'll get the option

Millwall are a professional football team from South London, this chap is a fan and their fans are fairly notorious in the old days (80s mostly) for liking a fight with other football fans.

I had the same first time I did it. I reinstalled but in a different drive. Also, I think I may have not pasted the JVM arguments text properly.

The Minecraft threads are getting mental but if you trawl through you'll find the following: Post from Bart with a couple of zipped folders to grab. Post from Bart with nifty step by step guide. Also, get Discord. Get the files and the guide and you'll be good to go. There'll be folk on Discord later if you have any issues. Me included. Bart will need to add your name to the whitelist so you can access the server too. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

How about just jumping on with pals Lee and giving it ago. A few of us were on yesterday and I'll be back on this evening. Fuck tutorials, we won't steer you wrong. Well, Greboth might. And Crispy, just don't your back on him is my advice[emoji2] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I've been watching this on Netflix. Very weird so far but enjoyable, despite that plank from Hollyoakes as the main character. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Yeah I'm all good other than witchcraft shenanigans*. Rich is brand new to MC but I think the rest of us have some experience to varying degrees. *and chopping wood lol Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Happy windy bollocks to one and all. Cycling to work was a bastard today. Happy b-d@y Martinho.[emoji9] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I met Cedric the Librarian. We hung out for a while, discussed the place of John Dos Passos in 20th century American literature, ate some pork chops and then parted ways. Nice to explore[emoji5] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

This is true, we've still a few more to join and there's a healthy ratio of noobs, semi noobs and pros to go around. The work Bart has put in already is awesome by the way. Really appreciated man [emoji106] [emoji123] [emoji109] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I believe if you cut down Crispy 's tree you will no longer get any seeds or saplings, he's been nerfed. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Should I ask Dylan if he wants to join in? He's been back online recently. Actually maybe make 'Inviting Dylan' an instant ban offence would be a better idea[emoji23] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Maybe he can get a server roll back? Is this an option? Losing progress now is only mildy annoying but further down the line when we're doing epic builds, losing everything would be a disaster. I know nothing of server maintenance but the ability to roll back would be useful. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

We should establish some basic do and don't do instructions to help with stuff like this. Do we mine in this world? I know there was mention of going elsewhere for mining....but in my limited time so far I've established a mine in the side of a hill and been digging down a bit. Plus I checked the images Bart and i'm on board with that 100% Let's get medieval[emoji5] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

The food chests were appreciated by the way Right now I just dug a little mine into the side of a hill and made a little area there with a forge, crafting table and a couple of chests, anything in the chests is available for all.

Trial and error (with the emphasis on error) is the only way I ever learn anything lol

Ignore me, I wasn't holding it down long enough

No I moved away from the original spawn. It only seemed to occur after I /sethome an area I was digging in so maybe it's that?

Though some wood is still not harvestable for me
