From my experiences of being stuck as I've stated in another thread, I've only managed to get unstuck by using the stepping/jumping feature repeatedly and by grabbing onto ladders of buildings from the inside. If this doesn't work you'll have to die unfortunately, you can try drinking any cleaning alcohol or rotten foods you might have. You could also take all the medicine you have too if you have any.

Do you dare to give a random a loaded gun?
Maia (DayZ) replied to skoms's topic in General Discussion
Pretty cool story. I tend to run up and around the coast looking for bandits to assassinate. In my travels if I come across a new spawn I typically give them something (almost always the axe or weapon off my back). I tend to only ever keep a pistol on me and I need that to kill bandits so I haven't tried that one yet. I have had to turn around and kill people I give stuff to though. I gave an axe to a guy once who was friendly, but when we jogged to the nearest town (was showing him the way) he immediately tried to (and succeeded at) killing a fresh spawn. I had to take him down, I had created a monster. -
CaseCeption - now whats going on here? o.O
Maia (DayZ) replied to robophant's topic in General Discussion
In regards to case-ception. I have tested this and personally after a while running around with a case in a case (or case in case in case in case in case etc) it causes me massive and I mean Massive desync to where I can't even play anymore. I've tested this several times on several servers and every time when i drop the cases, I resync and am lagless. I also tested this with pant-ception (pants in pants in pants etc) and had the same desync issue. Even just picking up a pair of pants in my pants would ALWAYS raise my desync by at least 10, immediately it would drop to 0 upon dropping and this wouldn't happen with "regular" items I would pick up (such as sodas, weapons, food). On another note, and this May be convenience because I haven't tested this, I have had my character reset on me probably a dozen times since I've started playing. About a 30-40% of those resets have been right after getting a few cases in my inventory. Might vary from person to person I'm sure, just thought I'd share. -
Between the gate and a wall? Changing servers could fix that. If its literally between two (or in one) stationary object(s) then you could try "stepping over" (pressing v) a bunch in different directions to see if that will wiggle you free (sometimes you have to move the mouse around when trying this). I've gotten unstuck from inside buildings and rocks doing this.

What if there are two doors in a small space? Do you open both, neither, or do you have to fiddle with it a bunch to get the door open you want to open? I have no problem with the current point and click interface, I look forward to doors making noise when you open them though (if this is ever done)

The stab vest prevents melee damage until ruined like anything. Each zombie hit for example will lower its condition by 1 level (pristine->worn). It becomes useless fast if you aren't careful. I haven't tested the press vest yet but I'm sure it works similarly as stated above (taking less hits, in most cases 1)

Bringing Bandits to Justice while they kill new-spawns on the coast.

Well done, let us be rid of these types of people. -
Random clothing, no camo, no backpack. Engage expert mode.

Combat Logger / Ghoster Exposed - DUCK YOU IF YOU DO THIS
Maia (DayZ) replied to rippertm's topic in Gallery
Yeah combat loggers/ghosters and people who camp the coast/newspawns are annoying. Granted by looking at the video, I'd give you the benefit of the doubt and guess you were just picking up your friend who was clearly unequipped. -
I think it's supposed to be funny because he logs in next to someone else who is just server hopping to camp on a tower (then again he spawns in on the tower himself so his intentions are also questionable) The camper with the m4 doesn't notice him and he just handcuffs him and loots him. He doesn't get far though before he dies lol Unless I somehow missed something
-
Seems like an abuse of game mechanics to trick someone into typing then shoot them. But on topic, yeah vests and backpacks are good ways to conceal weapons as otherwise stated. Too bad you can't stuff an m4 in your packpack lol
-
Oh you're right. Watched again and it was a hat not a motorcycle helm. That is odd, noted. I have missed zombies messing around at close range with it too now that I think about it.
-
I wouldn't have expected the first shot to miss the way it did, or perhaps the helmet protected him.

Despite the bad audio, it was an entertaining video lol Not how I expected it to end to be honest.
