DELTA2ALPHA

Guys there is fix for this. You just need someone to come over and pop a shot into your body and then you will bleed out. In the mean time, there is no other way of fixing it other then having you character data reset (I asked for this 4 days ago and nothing, but lucky I had a friend shoot me).

Motocross, PM me or post your steam id here and I will add you. We are a team thats just starting to get right into DayZ. www.teamipx.net. We also play League of Legends, BF3 and soon starting into Diablo 3 plus Guildwars 2 when it launches.

If you did that... could you think what would happen with ~35 servers, could you imagine what would happen if they spawned on all the servers. Plus the whole spawning next to your tent? What, when you die or when you log in? If it when you die, I think thats a little silly. If its when you log in, just walk back to your tent before you log out.

So I read that Rocket was already fishing for player info on what we like if this game actually went into real production. I only looked at the links quickly provided with this clip, but once you do go live with this project I thought I would throw you this video in for you. Im not sure how expensive this setup might be but it could be quicker and cheaper for mapping out and getting base line maps quicker then having devs make it. Just an idea, specially if you went with an MMO model and wanted massive maps.

So a friend and I love going for raids on the apartments in Cherno where the hospital is. We have been told that you can shoot out the windows of the hospital to get it... so we off loaded a clip and nothing. In the end we just used a grenade to get it, which yes is total over kill. Can anyone give me any tips or hints for easy access?

Well I suppose it could be beefed up with more option. But I figure if they where to make a MMO large scale map, lets say five times bigger then what we already have, this would be a quick way of getting some rough ideas. All the devs could stand around and just play with it for a while and see what they can get. With the water system too, it means that introducing a river system through the map to make boats more effective... well this would help create a quick map rough outlay. Im not up on coding or how systems make maps now. I have been out of the mod making and map creation area since Doom/Duke Nukem/C&C1/SC1/AoE1/WC1. I do remember how long it would take to just make layers in these games. If I could map out a quick base line with some thing like that, it could save hours. But I guess the tech has moved a long some what in that time, allowing quicker creation. But like I said, it was just a quick vid to throw into the idea pool. Never know, it might be of use :).

Well how about in the final version of the game, they just have a hot key or two for actual shouts. Like "Friendly" or "Back away slowly" etc. Then it would cut out DC but still allow you to communicate with people very close to you. Could also be given a noise range allowing people not to far away on the map to hear people talking to each other... and maybe trigger off near by zombies too :P. Oh and maybe a whisper function too like: "Did you hear that?" "Yes" "No" "Zombie" "Hold position" "Enemy" "Eating" "Drinking" Or hell, instead of it being direct chat or predefined hotkey chat, how about it sends just what you are saying to the actual map audio. So you press hotkeys to make it whisper or yell the levels of what you are saying over mic. Be awesome to creep up on some people and hear them whispering to each other around a camp fire while they make food and plan there next attack. Could stalk the crap out of a group, find out there moves, where their camp is, hidden supplies etc. Or if they are yelling at each other in the NW air field while under attack, you could hear people shouting at each other from different direction giving you sound definition of peoples locations. "Get the fuck down, Zeds coming from north", "Roger, I got the south point covered". Just add that real world kind of feel. And while on that point, if they introduced radio systems, if you are talking on the radio you need to pick a CD channel and hope no one else was on it. You could listen into peoples talks. Makes you want to leave a channel open for a while to listen in to make sure no one is using it. ALSO (lol I just running with this now), if you have your radio on it also sends this to the map audio as well as when you are talking into to it. So if you talk into the radio it forces the whisper audio to the map... but also, if the radio incoming volume goes to the map it will mean people have to remember to turn it off and use whisper chat. I mean, if you forgot your radio was on and someone just starts using your CD channel while your in town. All of a send it barks up and triggers zombies around you. Anyone, thats my little novel of some game ideas.

Its a bug, some times it works and some times it doesnt. Please see here http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1213.

Ok thanks heaps guys. Now I feel a little better unloading my gun.

It seems to be a growing problem with the hour glass bug. People die and respawn with the hour glass and unable to do any thing. It seems the character needs to be wiped. Can we introduce a remote wipe option. Enter in our character name and introduce a password system (maybe tie it to your forums accout?). I think with this growing problem, it could ended up being some time before people have their accounts reset as well as bogging down Dev time with having to handle this.

Yeah I can see massive abuse of this. If you are in a pvp fight, just quick crash the game and join back in again. If you managed to log in fast enough you could take out that person before this 'invincibility' finishes.

I had the same thing. Happened at 3pm GMT. I was in the apartments behind Chernogorsk. I got mobbed by a large pack of zombies. After I died and logged back in, I was stuck on the ground with massive damage and unconscious (hour glass). I had a friend next to me who noticed I spawned a double of my body, tried to heal me as I was bleeding out still and gave me all the medical help that should have brought me back. I was full health and ready to come back up but still the hour glass was full and wouldnt change. I tried removing the whole game and reinstalling every thing. Still stuck on the ground no matter what server I join. If I had to guess what went wrong, I would say that I died before I was actually dead. The server is stuck between thinking Im dead and fully registering that I am actually dead. So its in a loop, wont let me die but wont let me restart as alive. Maybe due to large amounts of damage from the zombies all at once. Registering all the damage but maybe not keeping up with it at the same time. Date/Time: May 6, 2012 at 3pm GMT Where you where: Apartments at the back of Chernogorsk (near hospital) What you were doing: Being killed by large(10-15) mob of zombies inside the apartments Current installed version: 1.5.4 (update to 1.5.5 with same problem) Server you were on: USA1 (Im in Australia with a ping of 280~, which might make keeping up with the large amount of registered damage a problem?) Your system specs: Intel 930, 6 gig ram, GTX 560 TI 2gig, Win7 and running through steam Timeline of events before/after error: Mobbed by zombies and "died". Load again to be almost dead on the ground, someone tried to and did fully restore me but still stuck with hour glass on the ground. Could I please have my character reset to a save 12pm GMT or full reset so I can at least start again.
