- No base coordinates/locations, player coordinates/locations and any kind of (meta) information may be shared in the ingame chat or on discord. A “GG” after a fight is not meta.
- In globalchat and discord, only English is permitted.
- If you log out in a building, that gets locked up as a base while you were offline: Sorry, use F11. Same goes for opened and reclosed bases.
- The max. groupsize is 6 players. If your group is bigger, split up and make two groups. Switching groups is possible but will result in a cooldown timer!
- You’re allowed to build alliances, even if those alliances are resulting in more than 6 players.
- There can be a maximum of 4 secured, but still raidable, vehicles per group.
- No combat logging.
Base Building
- To get support after a raid, screenshots of the base that show all sides and the inventory of the tents, weapon racks, and other items are required in order to receive support.
- Without a territory flagpole, there is no support for base raids.
- It is prohibited to build on buildings with military loot as well as the fire brigade, the police, the hospital and the prison.
- It is forbidden to build a base that is more than 5 walls high.
- The doorlimit is set to 15 Doors/Gates/Hatches in total per base.
- On the roof of static buildings, it is only allowed to build one wall high. (these may also be built over with a roof).
- SkyBases are not permitted and will be deleted. There should be a foundation or 1 pillar per floorcorner, that touches the ground beneath at least every third floor.
Walls, tents and other objects must touch the ground. - Tents may not look out of the base or out of a building. You’re not allowed to place tents into a wall, so nobody can pack them up.
- Asphalt and concrete roads may not be blocked. Exception: the road is a dead end.
- You are not allowed, to shoot into “no building zones” out of your base! As soon as a player is killed from such a base, this base will be deleted! If you get shot at while in your base out of a no build zone, you are allowed to defend.
- It is forbidden to build over concrete mixers.
- Building over wells is prohibited.
- Every base must be fully raidable.
Base Raiding
- Each raider must have video proof of how he entered the base. (The required 14-day video storage period. ).
- Raiding is only allowed with homemade breachingcharge, heavy breachingcharge and Raidsaws and is only possible with doors or gates.
- With a maximum of 2 players or 1 item, boosting over a wall is permitted. In that situation, a car is an item. (1x booster + 1x boosted)
- It is not allowed to log out of a base during a raid. Not from your own base, but also not from another base. If you are logged out due to a server restart, please log back in immediately afterwards and continue the raid or leave the base.
- Glitching into bases is not permitted in any way.
- Nothing, including vehicles, tents, or other storage items, may be grief destroyed or despawned. You are not permitted to delete the baseowner’s items using a trashcan/firebarrel etc.
- Excessive dropping of items on the ground, rather than storing unwanted items in other storage containers, is considered griefing. Take what you need, leave the rest. Instead of dropping items on the ground, use the storage containers available to store unwanted items. Especially on offlineraiding, players are expected to be mindful of item disposal. Griefing will be addressed on a case-by-case basis. Admins make decisions based on the severity and impact. The decision is in the responsibility of the processing admin.
- No itemstacking, floating objects, dismantling through walls or objects, gardenplot climbing. Keep it real! Accessing the inventory of storage close to windows and/or dismantling through windows is possible. Its nothing we can influence.
- Raiding is possible between Friday, 6:00 PM CET and Sunday 11:59 PM CET. Last chance to place a Breachingcharge is 11:49 PM. This applies ONLY to breachingcharges. If your base is built in such a way that you can climb in/boost in within the rules, this is also possible during the week! Construction errors or similar that allow others to enter your base and steal items are your problem. We also do not recommend anyone to simply leave their base open. Entering open bases is not forbidden during the week.
Stream
- We encourage players to share their epic DayZ moments with the community. Feel free to showcase your base-building skills or epic firefights
- Streamsniping is a big no-no. We want everyone to enjoy the game without unfair advantages or disruptions. Feel free to watch the Streamers on our server, but if we notice any suspicious activities, like players actively hunting down or avoiding a streamer, wait for streamers to log off and raid their base afterwards, we’ll step in and punish your behaviour.
- We’re not the fun police, but we do want to maintain a fair and enjoyable environment.
Our goal is to keep the playing field level and ensure that everyone has a great time.
Streaming is a Two-Way Street.
We trust our community to be awesome. Enjoy the streams, but let’s keep it fair and square. - If you are a streamer or content creator, it is also your responsibility to make streamsniping more difficult. For example, please use map overlays that automatically overlay your image when you open the map. Be creative.
- Remember, the point is to have fun and share the love for DayZ. So, stream on and let’s make the server a place where everyone can enjoy the apocalypse together!
