We will begin stocking uniform parts in the base so that we have extras for missions.  The uniform will only be required during mission meetups, but you are welcome to sport it any time!

REQUIRED PARTS:

  • OREL Police Uniform Pants
  • YELLOW Armband
  • NO FACE COVERINGS

OPTIONAL PARTS:

  • OREL Police Uniform Jacket
  • PRESS Vest
  • Cowboy Hat
  • Sunglasses

The optional parts allow members the flexibility to have their own protective headgear, larger slotted jacket or raincoat, different vest for more slots, etc.

HERO Community Meeting

Mumble, 05 September 2015 @ 18:00 Mountain, 20:00 Eastern.

If you log into the website or Mumble and notice any changes that affect you, DON’T PANIC!

GOOD changes are in the works for our community! And with the recent 0.58 patch as well as the announcement from Brian Hicks about how patches will be rolled out from now on, we should have a much more stable game and can begin restructuring our foundations for a more stable community.

The Hostile Environment Relief Organization is getting revamped and if you have visited the website recently, you may have noticed a few changes. These changes are going to help us build upon our existing foundation for us to grow this community to our previous goal of 25 HEROs.

The changes will be discussed in detail at a community meeting hosted on Mumble. Questions will be answered after each topic for anyone that has questions.

April 2015 MVP

The Most Valuable Player status in the Hostile Environment Relief Organization is selected by the entire community by vote and is awarded to the community member who shines as a “White Knight” to HERO and the entire DayZ community as a whole.

Please take a few minutes to refer to The HEROs Oath and the latest HERO Legends posts when determining your votes.  This list of players was taken directly from HERO Legends for the past month.

HEROs for hire is in business!

Exciting stuff going forward for HERO!  The vote has passed this week so I will change our advertising from “looking for members” to “need help surviving?” type posts.  Other survivors that are looking to join our cause and provide a HERO type service should naturally find us through this advertising.

Please see the HERO Chat page for details on how this will work.  Also please hang out in the HERO Chat while you are playing if you are interested in providing HERO services to the public!

If you are a HERO responding to help requests, you are running the mission and call the shots, not the person requesting help.  I would recommend following the safety recommendations in this Field Manual update.

Rewarding Heroic Deeds

This community is founded on good people doing great things and we would like to encourage this behavior to continue even when there are not official meetups happening!

For the month of April, we would like to see some heroic deeds being done.  These can be missions run with multiple people or solo acts of heroism.

Post the story of your experiences and screenshots in HERO Legends with the proper format and we will take a vote at the end of the month for the most heroic acts!  Quality or quantity will be determined by the voters.  Going forward we will continue to have monthly votes for an MVP based off of HERO Legends votes.

To kick it off this month, Missbehaving and I have come up with a small pool of $50 for the winners that will be broken up as follows:

1st place – $20 + MVP status

2nd place – $15

3rd place – $10

4th place – $5

I’m looking forward to the great stories that come out of our DayZ experiences!

Field Manual Update

A new section has been added to the Field Manual called “Squad Missions“.

The main purpose of this section is to have some template missions that can be run at any given time by members of our organization. It should also familiarize new members of the community and veterans with the goals of a given mission.
