Starting last night, the game has become virtually unplayable. My ping is spiking at random times and my desync is hitting 100k solid. I never had any trouble before that. Didn't know if this was an issue with the servers and the game is in need of a serious hotfix or what. My friend a few towns over is having the issue as well but not nearly as bad. All my other games seem to be working just fine so it isn't my internet.

Maybe it's just my luck. I can't tell you how many times I've ransacked entire cities as well as outside villages and found nothing but rotten fruit and motorcycle helmets. Anyway to tell what buildings are supermarkets though? And do all cities have one? Oh, and what cities seem to be the least populated? Yeah, the spawn points seem to be somewhere between Solnichney and Kamyshovo so I'm sure they've already been hit, but it'd be nice to find SOME FOOD there since my character is most likely going to starve by the time I reach a place with food.

I understand the theory of realism in this game, but the lack of food in this game is seriously beginning to frustrate me. All of my deaths have been from starvation. I'll have a backpack full of tools, weapons, ammo, and rotten fruit. However I'll RARELY find food to eat. I was excited when I made it into Kamyshovo and found two bananas and a can of beans. However, my pants glitched off of me along with all of the food I had in my pockets. That was it for the food and I didn't make it into Elektro before I starved to death. How about those pumpkins in the gardens? Why can't I eat those? Or any berries in the forests? If this is a game on survival, we should be able to eat more than just cans of tuna. Oh and if Bear Grylls could drink his own piss, I should be able to eat something other than canned shit and be alright.

I am in the exact same boat. Is there a way to kill myself or anything? I have no loot on me and I'm healthy (JUST spawned minutes before this happened to me in Solnichny). They need to incorporate some sort of suicide command.

Shameful self bump -.-

Hey DayZ Forums, I'm having trouble communicating with ANY server I connect to. When I first purchased the game, it was working just fine. All of the sudden, tonight my internet is having a hard time communicating with the server. When I join the server, I spawn in and can move around just fine but cannot interact with the map at all. I cannot withdraw items from my inventory into my hands other than my flashlight, yet my flashlight cannot turn on (I get the option to, but when I try and click "turn on" nothing happens. Just like my sex life). I cannot open doors, I cannot pick up items, or interact with the map in any other way. Apparently, when my friend and I spawn together I'm standing still or lagging on his screen when I'm moving just fine on mine. Also, 9/10 times this happens I get the red broken chain link icon. My friend and I are playing together and he is able to play just fine (with normal bugs obviously), however when I join the server he claims he starts to lag as soon as I join. He can connect and interact just fine, but I seem to have all of these issues that don't seem to be apparent with anyone else. I've tried resetting both my modem and router, I've also set up a DMZ on my IP address through my router. Are there possibly specific ports I have to forward? I don't think this is a bandwidth issue because I'm getting sufficient speeds through my ISP. I have Comcast (unfortunately), DL speed 28mbps UL 6mbps. I have Avast Free A/V (No Firewall) and it is allowed through Windows Firewall. I'm really all out of troubleshooting ideas, to the point where I'm gonna get on the phone with Comcast on Monday and see if they can find any issues with my internet. Please help as soon as possible and thanks in advance. This is becoming heavily frustrating. I could play through the bugs and glitches, but the fact that I can't even connect to anything in the game is really forcing me to think I wasted my money. And if you don't understand the issue I'm having, I can post a video of what happens.

Still having the issues. I'm almost positive that it is a port issue with my modem and/or my router. If I can just figure out what ports this game uses, I'll be able to repair the issue myself. Any way I could find this information? Google is far from helping.

Protips. Gracias amigo.

Could it be a possibility that other people in the house are hogging all of my internet bandwith and I don't have sufficient speed to interact with the server?
