Are you playing on a laptop? You might be hitting your mouse-pad with the palms of your hands. Try disabling your mousepad while playing (there's normally a button above/near it that has a picture of a mousepad/a picture of a mousepad crossed out) and renable it later. Otherwise, no idea? Are you moving your mouse with your fingertips or palm?

You're outrageous. DayZ isn't for playing in big groups. :(

Not my particular taste in hair, but hey, it might suit you. :) (Sorry that's really mean....)

Put it in your hands.

Right-click "read" ?

Kick and scream all you want. Not enough men to play real DayZ. (awesome women are accepted as well)

You're lame :(

I found no loot. Good job on finding loot!

You call it suffering. I call it fucking hilarious.

...because there's not a point? UNLESS having the hood "Up" = more warmth, less susceptibility to disease in the wind/rain AND interfered with vision while in 1st person (making Hardcore servers oh-so much better than normal ones), it seems like a completely irrelevant thing to waste time on.

The agreement between the DayZ staff and those to host servers on the public hive is that public servers must to open to the public. It's really fucking annoying to see a fully geared up player who obviously doesn't know how to play because he got everything on his password-protected 1 slot server before going to real public servers to be a bandit. I don't care if you KoS. Just don't be a cheating fucktard when you do it.

I knew this day would come... You watch your character through the eyes of another character that's in a different video game. IE, you're playing DayZ, you find a Mario Donkey Kong arcade machine, and you have to control Mario using DK's camera. ...or would that be like 5 dimensions?

1: He's a lot more brown 2: Hey, I'm just correcting someone for being wrong.

I wasn't serious! :) But if you ever deny me a victory again I will find you, and I will kill you, like Liam Neeson in that one movie...

You cheated. :( And no... I edited my post about 50 thousand times, yes, but it was after I realized I was probably wrong and went to Google, not after reading other replies. I demand recognition for my work! :)

2D is NOT 2P

I beat him to it :(

Whoever said 2PP = 2D isn't a very bright chap. Most likely the 2PP you heard of is "Over the shoulder" view, where you are looking right over your shoulder; your shoulder, head, and weapon are visible, but you can't see much more of yourself, as opposed to 3PP when you can see most of your body from behind. It could also mean you see your character through the eyes of something else. For example, in Pyschonaughts (one of the greatest games EVER of all time ever) you have to use the night vision view of a security camera to navigate through a dark room. There is also a boss fight in which (if I remember correctly) you're chasing a monster (thus running "towards" the camera) and using the monster's view to see what you have to dodge. (I got this from Googling. Made enough sense to include it)

Thank you. And may the Boondocks be ever saintly.

This has always bothered the hell out of me... I have no problem getting hungry or thirsty, but if I eat an entire hiking backpack of fresh fruit and sit at a water pump for half an hour, I never achieve either of the good statuses I should be getting.

...don't you have to be a black character as well?

Did it start happening since a certain update? Are you on the stable or experimental branch? Have any other programs had this problem? (Games or otherwise)

A game in alpha is going to get much, much worse during the Alpha, but it will recover... as long as the devs don't pull a Battlefield 4. (Sorry, too soon?) Seriously, though: 1. You can't complain about character wipes; it is something that should happen every 1-2 months (at least!) to keep the alpha balanced whenever new items are added or spawn rates are changed, or other changes are made to those fundamentals. It's the same thing when zombie difficulty is finally a thing; everyone should restart and have to face these new, tougher zombies the same way, rather than some players completely gearing up, not playing until the game is ultra difficult, and then going on a rampage when no one can find anything better than a stick to defend them self with. 2. It's in development. The dev team needs to make mistakes and realize that there are broken features in order to make the game as good as possible in the future. I know it seems silly, and that demanding absolute excellence in every implementation is the best way to guarantee the game is absolutely amazing, as it will be, but broken features being complained about in the fifty thousand threads just like this one lets the devs know, "Hey, cut it out .You fucked up, fix it." Or better yet, "Hey, asshole, this idea is stupid. Take it out." Hopefully cowboy hats and boots will be taken out...

I don't use the DB; I try to refrain from metagaming as much as I can (although I do lookup which foods/drinks are the best, how to fight disease, and firearm stats, not going to lie). Because I don't use a map to navigate, I don't really have names for anywhere... ...but there's a spawn that is seemingly in the middle of nowhere. If you run up the road in the direction you are facing at-spawn you'll come across an empty house with usually 1 zombie and a well. If you don't mind crawling for a few minutes, it's a great way to get rid of thirst immediately. If you keep running in that direction, there's another house, without zombies. I don't know what the building type is; it's the kind with the screened-in entrance. The kitchen has a shelf and a table with pretty good odds of spawning fresh fruit and soda, if not a canteen (in which case you can run all the way back to the first house and fill up!). Still going in that direction, there's a road that runs east-west (I think? Never used a compass to find out). There's a few industrial buildings (I usually get a fire hydrant as my first weapon :( ) or you can run east and find 5-6 houses with another water pump + a few zombies. I usually avoid this if my previous looting was satisfactory. Still running in the same direction, now into the woods, you'll eventually come across a medium-sized town (I've never seen another player in it, and zombie spawns have been broken since release; it's the perfect safe-haven, unfortunately) with a hospital. That should take care of a few more needs. Three apartment buildings = almost guaranteed backpack. Still running in the same direction, albeit a little more easternly, there's an under-construction building with 2 farm buildings around it. Great place to get a hiking backpack and either a fireaxe or firearm. Now if you run straight north, you hit one of the airfields (I don't know which one) and can loot at the military-level if you are feeling confident enough. Otherwise you can run right and find the crashed ship. Loot that, and head along the coast to Skalitzky (is that the town by the wreck?). There will be another hospital and firehouses to loot to your heart's content. Keep running along the coast and you'll arrive in Elektro or Cherno all geared up. I know all of those instructions are extremely terrible and too vague, but that's what I do. I seem to get that spawn 99% of the time, and mostly avoid players even on full, daytime servers. I usually go avoid Elektro and go to Cherno, where a couple of sheds behind one of the apartment buildings tend to be full of helmets, spray cans, tools (most importantly can openers! ---if I haven't found one yet), and scopes/etc for my weapons.
