ah the days of weapon profficiencies, oh you sword skill is only at 15? miss miss miss miss miss miss miss miss miss oh im dead, damn those Scribs....

I think I have to agree with this the most.... I love sandbox games, it all started with morrowind, where you could do anything you chose to do, yeah there was a storyline, but after that first room where you can steal everything down to the very last spoon? That is what people want, to do whatever they want in a game, not those games where you are stuck following one path and cannot explore anything else in the game.. for example one of the old LOTR games, you see a tower in the backround and think oh thats cool looking, in Dayz/Skyrim/Minecraft you see the tower and think, I am going to go over there and look at it/destroy it/claim it as my own.... So I think it is the "having the options to do what I want" that makes dayz and others like it so addicting and enticing.

Reminds me of when I wake up every morning, pitch black not sure where I am, little disoriented, good thing I don't sleep on top of a fire station I suppose.

Thanks for all the help and quick interaction fellas.... I gave up on the one server, to much was going wrong I landed on a veteran server :S but I am doing well luckily for me its a very low pop vet server and most of the people that play on it are busy up around the NWAF so I dont have to worry about to much right now. BTW I saw my first Heli crash yesterday.... walking around lost in the woods and see a pillar of smoke and on approach see 5 or 6 ish soldier zombies coming out of the crash.... this game I tell you what keeps things interesting

Well the problem came to a head when I got sniped by someone and it kept glitching me out and respawning on my body with no loot, and the sniper kept killing me over and over..... I ended up getting banned from the server for "Hacking"..... The thing is I have no idea how to hack :P the game screwed up and I am now banned from that server, but I am holding my head high. I have found a new server that allows me to refuel do transfusions and die in the correct manner. Unfortunatley now I don't know anyone on the new server. So its back to square one, wish me luck...

Well everyone here was the solution for me it was actually a version problem. I downloaded Arma II and Arma II OA through steam but for some reason I had an outdated version. So what I ended up doing was going through Dayz Commander and finding the update screen and sure enough my versions were out of date. Since I updated them the game runs a lot smoother and I can do the Transfusions/Refueling now. Thank you for all the help.

I will give this a shot also

Fair Enough...

Hmm I will try this thank you for the quick response. I did try it last night but Dayz is very buggy on my comp for some reason which is weird b/c it says on canirunit.com that my comp should be laughing at this game as far as loading goes but i get in and its rather sluggish/glitchy so i turned it down to norm setting and change antianalysing to low and shadows off but it still runs sluggish and slow.

I like this idea its funny. I used to play on a minecraft server and there was a town that we were at war with I would raid their town and replace their valuables with sand. The admins started looking for "the Sand Bandit" lol it was so funny

So I was playing Dayz last night on a pretty good server, and another survivor and myself decided to team up. Well after a while and withstanding various attacks my buddy needed a blood transfusion, so I was like well let me give it a go i have a blood bag. I used my mouse well to attempt this action while I had Blood in my main inventory and was looking at him but the only option I get is to open his backpack. Any ideas? Then later on him and I found a vehicle or two and decided to fix them up and refuel them, same problem had a full jerry can and could not refuel the vehicle, had all the other options but couldnt refuel, although he was able to put fuel in it himself. So what I am wondering if this is a common issue or if its just me. Any hints would be helpful
