I came here thinking it was about the forum. Example: " I'd like to discuss this in the discussion forums." Predefined Responses: " Stop whining." " It's an alpha, stop whining." " How dare you even think about breaking my immersion. " " What makes you think anyone values your input." " This is DayZ uninstall plz" " You're expletive stupid for thinking X you dumb expletive." " I have 1200 posts. 1000 complaining about the Epoch mod. This is a survival game. Except when it's not."

No, I do not want to spawn hop. It serves me no purpose. Getting out of a building right now. Damn right. Getting out of the building the other day. Also right. Couldn't vault out, nothing. Deleted my /documents cfg. Also did nothing. I don't play for 5-6 hours a pop. If I'm stuck for 45 minutes waiting to starve to death. That's a big deal to me. And I'm perfectly willing to let someone else abuse a feature that would help me not waste time. It won't effect me. I don't troll around spawn points/ go to balota/ ect. I'll save the trouble of saying 'it's an alpha.' 'bug' 'deal with it, ect.' When the game is not an alpha, take the respawn button out. Being an Alpha, I'm sure more stupid things will happen. Having an option to restart is nice. It doesn't break the game. Discussing it on the forums, also, doesn't break the game. Look at the majority of your posts. If you're intent on trolling people for legitimate issues. Go find another KOS thread to be a dick in.

How is it a major change? I've gotten stuck twice. Once by falling through a staircase. The other logging back in. Took an hour away from my life and playtime. The button is already there. If someone wants to play spawn roulette. What are the chances of a Novy spawn? And in the current state of the Alpha, how beneficial is it really? Does a button break your precious immersion?

I have a story that's relevant. I was with 4 friends traveling north. We started taking shots. It was night, and we were unsure exactly where they were coming from. Only 1 of us had a gun. We assumed a squad was tracking us. Long story short. It was a single person hiding on top of a low apartment. He was a terrible shot. As an example this isn't banditry. Aside from being completely stupid on the players part. He had no risk so he went for it. We caught him coming down a ladder. 6 shots, then nothing. (except a ching) He ran out of ammo. Baseball bat + handcuffs and a blood bag kit. Mid way through he disconnected. What a single player attempted against 5 is just stupid. But he did it. He had a badly damaged M4 and started with apx 90 ammo. OK Alpha blah blah blah. If i'm shooting a damaged gun... Most of the ammo I've seen is worn or damaged. I'd expect at some point to have a mis-fire or jam. When this is implemented, it will become more dangerous to simply fire first. Plus if Zeds are attracted by sound or a fresh kill. I'm all for KOS. But I'd like to get held up at least once. Personal experience, it's more fun holding people up. Even made some new friends when the subjects were cool/funny about it. It would be equally cool to see someone's gun explode [ruin] in their hands for using crappy ammo. Just saying.

How dare they break the immersion with all these 24hr daylight servers. After all, I expect to be able to spot someone using a flashlight through 3 buildings and a KM away. This is a realistic survival simulator after all. Being an alpha is only an excuse when X person is disappointed some may want to mod a game based on a mod. #modception

I wish I could drum into everyone that uses 'this is an alpha' as an excuse for people to stop discussing the game. Dean forbid they have any questions, independent thought, or mainstream criticism. And how dare they post it in a discussion forum.

I'm confused. Why must I jump through hoops just to heal someone. Yet I can attach any existing scope in the game. Granted they're not snipers. But dead on accurate w/o making any adjustments. My character must be a marksman, but not a healer. realistic > realism

Was he bitching? You don't have handcuffs or disinfectant. Those work great together.

I'm all for it being hard. But if I had to eat a can of spaghettios every 1.5km in a marathon, to stay satisfied/healthy, I'd probably go unconscious from that. Realism < Realistic

I was stuck in a building last night. This worked for me. In documents/dayz you should find a 'yoursteamname.cfg' Delete it. When I came back into the game I was about 150m from my last location. Not sure if that was coincidence or not.

The respawn button greys out after awhile. Which really makes no sense. From the mod, I'd think, you'd want it disabled so you don't try and find a better spawn point. After a certain amount of time it becomes usable. Or if you keep the menu open for 2-3 minutes, you get the option to suicide. - Bug was reported. I think I found a fix. In documents/dayz there is a player config file. I deleted the player file. Should be 'your steam name.cfg'. It didn't remove the character from the game, but did put me back in the game about 150m away from where I was. Not sure if this is coinidental or not. A few minutes later the starving and thirst killed me. Guess I could have waited.

Considering it's an alpha and 'things can happen'... Yah. that makes a lot of sense. But I'm still sitting here meleeing until I pass out.

I spawned under a building. Won't let me respawn via menu. Any ideas? Tried vaulting, crawling ect.

This error popped up for my buddy last patch. Any server/ any mod. Figured it was just the last patch. Currently he is still unable to play. Any ideas?

Excuse if this is not in the right place. I've searched this in depth but have found nothing. But the last few days I've seen scripters kick entire servers with script restriction #21 and remoteexec restriction #9 Afterward players have a hard time returning to the server. Even when the server is restarted. When they do their backpacks are empty, or they respawn on the coast.
