Sick and tired of the main hive with hackers, overpowered loot, script kiddies, duplication bugs...? We are too. This is DayZ the way it was meant to be.
I found a car!
With more than twice the amount of vehicle spawns than normal servers, more vehicles near spawn points and abandoned vehicles despawning after some time, you will never have to run for hours.
Farewell, hackers
With the latest anti-hacks scripts available, a whitelist in place as well as our custom scripts, hackers are a part of the past.
I can't get on the damn server
The AWA Private Hive is one of the largest DayZ servers available. We hit 200 concurrent players online every day.
Who's shooting in Cherno?
We bring the ever loved side channel back into the game so you can keep in touch with new friends.
Time until next server restart:
Chernarus servers
Origins
Namalsk
ArmA 3 Wasteland
Teamspeak 3 server: ts.awkack.org:9990
All servers restart automatically every 3 hours.

AWA DayZ Origins
We are pleased to introduce to you our new DayZ Origins Server. This we stand with our whitelist in conjunction to you to present the best gaming experience.
The server has 60 slots and four hours a restart cycle.
Unfortunately, many of our administrative actions are not possible because the developer of the origins mod prohibits direct access to the server (money corrupts Character).
However, you can assume that we will give our most to offer you the best possible experience on our servers as usual. You can find the server in DayZ Commander:
AWKACK.ORG (Do not forget to select "Any mod" or "DayZ Origins only" or search directly for the IP)
As you already know we previously had a base called AWA base on olsha hill, due to balancing and exploiting issues we decided to rework NEAF and the base.
Many of you have already seen the new AWA base that lies north of Novy sobor
With the removal of AWA base on olsha hill we felt it would be ashame to leave it empty so you can now find a castle ruin overlooking the NEAF. The new Airfield features new industrial buildings, a fire station, one barracks and some tents so hopefully this will call for some good action up in NEAF aswell.

We hope that this will call for some more action and bring new life to the north-eastern part of the map! So bring out your guns and prepare for battle!

Spring is finally here, it's Easter, Game of Thrones is back... It's a time of change. These changes also apply to the AWA network.
Due to the decreasing quality in the DayZ mod, both in terms of players and gameplay, we have made the decision to close our DayZ servers. This decision was actually pretty easy to make after a long discussion between the admins.
Our new focus will be a similar zombie game known as The WarZ. It's a fantastic and unique game, and it's much less buggy than DayZ. Instead of being just Pvp-deathmatch, the WarZ is an amazing mmo focused on survival and interactions between the players.
Let's all ditch this shitty game and move to WarZ!
The changes will take place by the end of this week.
Great let's play of The WarZ in case you don't know what it's about:

Dayz Standalone - not released before June 2013
So guys,
the standalone is probably not going to be released in the near future. It seems that "Rocket" and the other developers are going to "review the situation" in june. That means the standalone is probably not going to be released before that, but they are hopeful to start after that review!
Supposedly the standalone is already in a condition where they could release an open-alpha version, but the developers want to optimize the client-server-architecture first. At the moment the alpha is tested internal with 25 players. They want to test the game with several hundreds players before the release.
At the game traid fair PAX "Rocket" showed a presentation, which contains a rough draft of the inventory system of the standalone. The simplified Drag-and-Drop-System is clearly evident, other innovations are that clothings and bags can be used as additional containers for gear.
I found a video of rocket showing the new map...it looks awesome, check it out! Cherno got extended, new military base at NWA to just say a few things he presents!

FAQ
(click to show/hide)
Q: How do I know where to look for the tents? A: At the beginning of the hunt each player gets a list of approximate information. The exact locations have to be found yourself.
Q: Are waypoints enabled during the event? A: Simply, no. It shouldn’t be too easy!
Q: What sort of equipment do i have at the beginning? A: All participants will get: 1axe, 1flashlight, 1military flashlight, 1hunting knife, 1toolbox, 1map, 1compass, 1box of matches, 1watch, 1steak (cooked), 1steak (raw), 1 water bottle (full), 1water bottle (empty), 1 road flare, 1 painkiller, like 8 bandages, 1 morphine
Q: What time of day will be during the hunt? A: To make the whole event not too easy it will be night!
Q: How am i able to find the tents at night? A: Each participant has two flashlights and also the lighting of your motorcycle. In addition to that, there will be chemlights lying around on the ground near the tents. That will make it a little bit easier if you are near the tents.
Q: I found a tent, how do I get the item? A: Look in the tent?
Q: Am I allowed to attack other player/game masters? A: You are allowed to hurt/kill other players but not the game masters! In addition: You are not allowed to take specific items from the killed players gear, you have to find the tents AND the items yourself! You are NOT allowed to camp somehwere and kill other players, you will get excluded from the event and receive a ban on all servers!!
Q: How do you know if someone attacked another player? A: Because the server has its own database everything is going to show in the logs!
Q: Am I allowed to collect loot? A: General loot such as food, drinks or other garbage, yes. You are allowed to pick up guns, too even NVG’s if you are lucky, but think about the time. If other players finish the hunt before you, you/ your squad lose!
Q: I’m hungry / thirsty, what now? A: At the beginning everyone has some basic equipment, later in the game you have to search through loot or kill animals.
Q: What if a zombie attacks me? A: Because the whole treasure hunt is played in DayZ a zombie attack could happen quickly. As long as you sit on your bike nothing is going to happen. If you dismount you should prefer to run fast!
Q: I crashed my motorcycle and can’t drive anymore, what now? A: Every motorcycle has one jerry can and two wheels. You have to refuel it yourself, even if you blow up a wheel it should be replaced easily.
Q: My motorcycle exploded, what can I do? A: Should it really be the case that a motorcycle is completely destroyed, you have run or try to get picked up by another participant!
Q: What do I do if I have collected all of the items and got over the finish line? A: Once you finished the hunt, contact a GM as quickly as possible. Once you put all of the found items in a tent near the finish line you are allowed to grab a helicopter and fly it around a little.
Q: Are we allowed to sign in as a squad? A: You may run around in teams, but each player must pick up their own items! It is not allowed to take additional items for other players and give these to them later on. This ensures that even solo-players have a fair chance.
Q: I found a SUV, what does that mean? A: There are five SUV’s somewhere the map, these are the game masters vehicles who take care of the tents. You should stay away from these vehicles. If you try to steal one of the cars the game masters are allowed to kill you!
Q: What keeps me away from the airfield to steal a helicopter? A: Game Masters with heavy weapons and a grin on their face! Apart from this, the helicopters need to get repaired first and they will not be repaired until someone finishes the hunt!
Q: How can I recognize a game master? A: Game masters will have a different skin, like the Red Beret Skin.
Q: What do normal players look like? A: Normal players will have the hero skin.
Q: How long time is this event going to take? A: Currently the estimated time is 3-4h. More accurate information will follow in the coming days after we made a test run.
Q: What if someone needs more time? A: 3-4h should be enough for everyone. If you didn’t get to the finish line in time you will probably never get there
Q: How many players are going to participate? A: For this event its planned that not more than 40-50 players are going to participate! If the event goes down well with the participants there will be more events like this…maybe!
Q: I finished the treasure hunt first! What do I get? A: You/your squad are going to get fully geared for the Chernarus Hive! That includes: • Two legit weapons of your choice • A camo- or ghillie-suit • Coyote-Backpack • All legit off-gear ingame • A vehicle of your choice (Only one vehicle for squads)
Q: Someone finished the treasure hunt before me, what now? A: Rest assured, you will get a consolation price if you finish the hunt in time and are under the first ten participants!
