I've been killed in similar situations with high tech gear including a DMR, tent, 8 magz, M9SD with 6 magz, gsp, map, watch, compass, ghillie suite, 5 pieces of cooked meat, blood bags etc.. Went afk to alt+tab and check the online map with loot spawn locations while prone in the middle of the woods nearby a tree and under a bush. I thought I was safe and I was proven to be wrong, you're never safe in this game especially while alt+tabbed so your point doesn't really mean much other than he went afk or alt+tabbed in the wrong place or he could have even been lagging out.... I'll also leave this here, maybe something can be done about this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZv-5WNsVfg /requesting sticky for an actual answer to my question. -Thank you /bump

I ask this question not for players that already have knowledge of this game but for those that do not. It should be very clear by now that many players have recently purchased this game solely to play this mod with no prior knowledge of the game at all. Furthermore, I would bet my life that a majority of the players that have purchased the game to play this mod do not read up on the game or do any prior research they just want to purchase, install, and get into the game to have fun. (I was one of these before I started doing a ton of research) This can be confirmed by the thousands upon thousands of posts regarding the same topics of "Needing help with installation" when there are already detailed threads and videos on this. Also can be confirmed why global chat is constantly spammed with new players asking the most basic questions for fundamentals on the game. My point is, having said all of that. I doubt that any new beginner with no gear other than what they started with and no knowledge of the game is going to pass-up the opportunity that you just did (Lopz). Then with no knowledge of their own that they did anything wrong is automatically banned thus feeling completely confused and robbed of their experience for what they paid for...

It's sticky worthy because nobody has a definitive answer and the consequences are extreme. Also, the website you linked me is claimed to be official yet it cleared says UNOFFICIAL. I'd also like to mention that wiki pages can be edited by any user that wishes to do so. So adding in a weapon wouldn't be difficult for anyone to do. Nobody see's a problem with this?

Well... thanks for the information and all but this is the exact thing I mentioned would be a pain in the ass lol. You can't expect a player to be in say, a very risky position standing over a dead body checking the loot and alt+tabbing to cross check the list of approved items to make sure everything is okay before you take it. Nobody does this, nobody will do this. I guess I could print it out, but there has to be a better way.... As for what QbertTK said, if it's true that a hacked/duped item will not have a picture then that would solve it but can anyone actually confirm that?

Top 3 Bugs you want fixed, Top 3 Features you want added
PAiN512 replied to caddrel's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Bugs: 1) Falling off of stairs and ladders due to bugs in the game structure or clipping 2) Players being able to see through walls, stairs, and various objects 3) Changing clothes bug Features: 1) A logout timer or consequence for disconnecting mid battle 2) Some type of safe house structure for being able to store more goods than you can carry. Safe house would also delete after death just as everything else does. 3) Items being able to stack to conserve storage space if option 2 above is not considered. -
Basically done with this game for now. Sadly, it's just a slow paced deathmatch.

Waiting for this post to be removed/deleted/locked etc... Pretty sure I read a sticky somewhere stating that all (other) PvP discussion threads would be deleted. -
We should be able to vote users as trolls so that their future threads go unseen ;p.

Hello everyone, I know there have been several threads regarding the Debug Monitor and before you rage at me that I should have used the search function, I have and did not find my answer. I was wondering if it is at all possible to move the debug monitor? I have been watching several youtube videos online lately and looking at player screenshots and several players have their debug monitor positioned much higher than mine at the top right corner of their screen which looks much cleaner and it also appears to be 3 times smaller than mine. On my screen, when I'm playing, the debug monitor completely covers the eyes and ears icon which is important information I need to know and can be difficult to read. It is also 3 times larger than others than I have seen online and in videos. In summary: My debug monitor is huge and it positioned directly over the eyes and ears icon. Can I move it higher and shrink it some how? The shrinking isn't necessary but I would love the ability to move it. -Thank you

Awesome thank you!! I'll give it a shot once I get home :).

I love this game for the many reasons you marked as negatives. I don't think this game is an all out deathmatch. Perhaps you are spending too much times in major cities and towns? There are so many others things and places you could be doing/exploring in this game. I agree with one thing you hinted on, which was the idea that this game was mostly supposed to be about zombies and it doesn't feel that way. I feel something should be done about the zombies, what exactly? I'm not sure. You can't just add more zombies because in truth there are already plenty of zombies making it really hard to avoid attracting them already. One thing I would really like to see are zombies indoors as well as outdoors. How epicly scary would it be to walk into a building and see a zombie huddled in a corner or something just waiting for someone to arouse it. OR, how cool would it be to be walking up a staircase only to come face to face with a drooling zombie just waiting to attack. Something like this would really bring back the omfg scary factor that I so much enjoy. As for the PvP aspect, it can be quite frustrating but it's also incredibly exhilarating to the point where I have truly never felt anything similar my entire life. I love it, please don't remove it. -
I can't be the only one having issues relating to navigating stairs and ladders. I really hate stairs for several reasons. 1) You fall through the stairs often 2) You also fall off after climbing a ladder sometimes. I try and avoid the deer huts now because I will often find 1 that is permanently bugged no matter how many times I try to climb it I will fall. 3) Stairs make player pathing completely terrible. You can't turn to look around you, ever. Even when at the end of the staircase you still cannot turn around without first hugging the facing wall then turning around which makes defending yourself against any type of fire impossible. 4) I once followed a player into the Cherno Apt Bldgs and set myself up in perfect position to ambush a player coming down the stairs. Only he was coming down the stairs in a smart way but a way that should be considered hacking or exploiting. He was crouching and going prone on the staircase coming down so that he could see through the stairs and below to look for any threats. Well, he positioned himself in a way where the end of his barrell was sticking out of the staircase but I wasn't sure if he could see me or not. Sure enough he fired and killed me by shooting straight through the staircase. After 8 days of living, to die like this almost made me quit the game but honestly I love it so much that I doubt I will ever outright quit. It has changed my mindset though. I now completely avoid stairs, ladders and also towers because of the glitches, bugs, exploits, pathing etc... It shouldn't be this way. Please fix this stuff so that the entire game can be experienced properly instead of outright avoiding such things =\

@Zorilya, Yes, that makes sense and I agree with that although it's frustrating. That's not the reason I hate stairs and ladders though. I hate them because you/I fall through them more often than I do not. =\
-
Your post is confusing. What I wrote and meant to say was that I was at the bottom of the staircase waiting for him to come down and I was not visible at all. He was exploiting the clipping of the game by going prone on the staircase to see right through the ground and directly at me. I knew he was looking at me because when he would do this, the barrell of his rifle would be pointed directly at my position. Meanwhile I couldn't see any part of him to get a clear shot other than seeing his rifle muzzle. He then fired and killed me by firing straight through the staircase ground. This kind of stuff needs to be fixed.

1) Fell through staircase and died 2) Fell from climbing a ladder leading to a deer stand. Broke my legs and had no morphine to heal. I was extremely far from any towns, cities or lootable buildings so I had to suicide.

DayZee Android app ideas
PAiN512 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
What about a comparisson feature in the app. So that one can say compare the pro's and con's of switching between the AKM you are using and an M16? That way a player can better decide if they want to pickup a new found weapon or not. -
Revolver for me. High damage with Low noise/sound. The M1911 has high damage but will attract all zeds in what seems like a 50 yard radius =\

WTF are you even trying to say lol? You honestly think that posting in this fashion is actually going to trigger the developer to give two shits about your suggestion and actually make a change? ......
