Ok, thankyou AsOiX I logged on with a WTF moment. Ahwell, finding the stuff is half the fun.

Hello all, FYI i did a quick search before asking, but didnt get an answer to my question. I realise this is alpha and shit happens, But my character seemed to be 'rolled back' with this patch (I started inland with a rain mack, a bunch of gear in a bag etc, not a total wipe). Is this normal? I don't want to play incase i screw something up if they are trying to return it. I just want to know if i should just accept its been wiped and move onto the next time i get equipped so they can wipe my char before i get to use it with it's shiny new M4 :rolleyes:

As an Eve-O player i am familiar with the system you talk about, but i feel this would be completely immersion breaking. you can only truely decern if someone is friendly if they dont kill you, and i think the paranoia from not knowing is part of the charm of this game.

I bought DayZ standalone on Sunday, I spent probably 3 days trying to find out where i was. In the end i had to cheat a little by using signposts and an online map with translations to get my bearings. However I support this Idea and think that getting your bearings is part of the experience. Also I'm sure there is a reason for it but it would be nice to spawn inland too. Just my thoughts on that.

I picked up the game yesterday after I had been eyeing it up for a while on steam. First day I died several times to zombies, which i expected to be honest. I have yet to spawn somewhere other than in a tiny village by the coast, and I have yet to find any sort of Map. The only Human contact i have had, was where we both entered a building from opposite ends. We both skirted the room while looking at each other and made for the exits. So far, despite the bugs i love this game. Lets see what happens in today's Log on.
