Guys, How do you revive from unconscious? Is it even possible. I got shot earlier and went unconscious from a fully healthy status. I had someone give me two blood bags (That I took from myself earlier on) and it did not revive me. They also tried a defibrilator; Which didnt work. Is the only way an epi-pen? can you even revive?

ok, interesting. The only thing I can think of was that I was bleeding out and we didnt notice, nobody bandaged me. But I certainly took two blood bags and two defibs and I just saw unconscious all the time. I was unconscious for about 10 minutes though, does that matter? Also, saline bags do the same as blood bags, right?

I took two blood bags and a defib; twice. It said to the guy who was doing it that he had revived me, but nothing changed on my screen, still unconscious...

Did characters get wiped in the update? Mine seems to of... Anyone else had this same problem? Bye bye pristine scoped m4 and everything :( I was playing last night just fine, then I got kicked from a server and every server I logged in after that said that they couldnt contact the central hive and spawned me as a new spawn ( i tried 3). I noticed the dayz forums were just showing an SQL error so I figured they must of been working on something, or something was broken. so i logged out. Today I seem to be a fresh spawn again...

The point of alpha is to find problems. I've found one. I'm not moaning, I am bringing it to peoples attention. /thread

Tell you what mate, go find me food, FNX45 with scope, silencer and torch, M4 with torch, silencer and scope, ammo, ammo box, food, morphine pens, full military hear, helmet, hunting backpack etc all pristine and I'll meet you on a server of your choice in 15 mins and you can hand it over, yea? :) I'm not on private hive or hardcore servers... It's np. I just think it highlights an issue with instability in the network. They need to implement some kind of logic. I think what happened is i played on servers that had no connection to the hive last. When they regained connection to the hive, they overwrote my last character. There should be some kind of logic around this, it should compare the age of the character or something trying to be saved, with the one in the DB. If the one in the DB is older, it shouldn't save the character. I've lost a week long character to be over written with one with literally less than 10 seconds of play time; because the hive was having problems. I'm not raging, I'm just saying - it highlights something that needs to be changed. How would you feel if you logged into a server that had lost connectivity to the hive, and it instantly wiped all of your gear?

I did, it even said when I joined that the server could not connect to the hive; so I left again. It warned that this character may overwrite my own if the connection to the hive is re-established, I couldn't read it all though as it only appeared for 3-4 seconds. I instantly disconnected and figured I'd wait till hive connectivity is back up. come back today, no character.

damnit! And I suppose there's no course of action is there on this... Its just start over :( My last five characters have died to a bug. One fell through the floor in a supermarket, another fell through the floor in an airfield prison, another glitched inside a building, this one was just randomly reset and another one fell two feet and broke his legs. Strangely the game waits until I'm fully kitted after about four days and then kills me with a glitch of some kind :(

double tap alt. always eat and drink everything you see and find until stuffed, and repeat when your not stuffed until you get healing/healthy status. If you are not healthy, you are not at full health, and die quicker.

p.s this was all night last night, about 1900-0000 GMT (I didnt check past then) I couldn't get on forums and there was nothing on twitter to suggest a problem, is there another place to check?

Would it be possible to introduce kick detection? IVe just spent 15 minutes getting into a game because my usual server is night, and I was then kicked from 3 other sertvers as soon as I joined. If you are kicked you should not have to wait...

what about passworded servers?

I didnt know it was against the rules. So some servers have kick in the title, and they do just that as soon as you join. I should report these? All of these servers kicked me within 10 seconds of joining. Ill bear this in mind.

But if your inexperienced then you just turn post processing off because it gets rid of that horrible blurry effect. You drink when your thirsty, eat when your hungry, and never reach the healthy status; Thus run around half dead all the time. If your experienced, you dont need to read any of this; As you already know :)

Just to confirm he says about turning off post processing. post processing is responsible for the visual effect that shows you when you are low on health, if you turn it off, you will have no idea when you are not fully healthy. So I suggest to leave it on.

Trains and beards massively have my +1 Having a beard although completely pointless would make for some in-game hilarity, as well as being pretty frickin cool. Could you imagine running into gandalf with an M4?! :)

I had something similar the other day. I dont know what the fuck happened. I had a mosin with a pristine long range scope. An FNX45 piston, and I was holding a fully pristine M4. I ran to some bushes and went prone while i spoke to a friend on TS. A zombie ran through the bushes that I hadnt noticed, and started hitting me. I didnt want to shoot him with my M4 for noise reasons as i was in elektro, so I pulled out my axe. Couldnt swing it. Pulled out my FNX45...click click click. (what the fuck moment here because I am RELIGOUS about making sure my guns always have ammo. I'd just logged in and it had emptied itself) I put it away and tried to get up, but the zombie kept knocking me down. You are unconscious.... Wakes up, try to get up and run... You are unconscious again. End of a character with full med supplies, lots of food, a full ammo box, a pristine scoped Mosin, a pristine M4 and pretty much everything else you could ever want in Dayz (Tac vest, full military gear, ballistics helmet, everything) Man I was pissed. p.s i also find it a bit silly that falling a few feet ruins everything in your pack.

I saw a guy earlier in Berezino. He hadnt clocked me. I ran up behind him with an axe, I saw he had a mosin on his back and I Got excited, because I had no gun. Just as I was about to swing; I saw he had 3 friends. I've never run so fast, far, and erratically in my life haha. I don't know if they saw me and I Don't care, I was still alive. Then I fell through the floor at NEAF and died.

IS it just me, or does getting hit by a zombie now sound like you are getting shot? It makes like a riccochet sound? BANISH THE RICCOCHET FIST IN FAVOR OF THE RICCOCHET ZED LUNGE!!!

I am also of the Eve fraternity. Dayz is very similar to eve in that way. Except it has no local; which is great. Local is the dumbest idea ever. Nothing wrong with being a spy. As someone else said, I'd hate you for it; But its perfectly legit.

I hate to say it, and I get annoyed with the "ZOMG Alpha" people; But that is kind of the point of Alpha. We are not playing a game. We are testing software, thats what we signed up for. As annoying as it is, the game is quite clear about that being what we are doing. I think we just need to make them aware we think something has changed and they can look into it. I personally think there is a LOT of work needed on walls / surfaces. Somehow making it impossible to glitch through walls/floors, stopping axes and packs glitching through walls, stopping torches shining through walls, stopping zombies walking in buildings like they are sinking in quick sand and all of these bugs should be priority over any features IMO. Im not a developer though and I don't know the cause, Im sure they are worknig onit. LOL@The jacket comment though :)

Something has certainly happened with this patch, I agree. I ran off a 3 foot ledge earlier (You know the ones outside the factorys that have a little board you can run up to get up them?) It broke my legs. Frosti, although your solution will work, its not really viable. I know its alpha and all, but in my thread about my recent glitch your advice was to stay away from stairs and ladders. Although this advice re:stairs and ladders may work, its a bit silly. And it was nowhere near as bad before. I have 45 hours in this game now, 6 of those post patch. I never broke my legs pre-patch, and only glitched into a building once. I have been round most areas of elektro, cherno, balota air strip, the military base, north west airfield, north east airfield and most of the places in between multiple times. Since the patch has been released, I have glitched into a building four times, through stairs twice, apparently fallen through the floor to my death (Wiping out a blooming good character) and broken my legs 3 times. In 6 hours. Something doesn't feel right.

Guys, Is there some kind of "lag bomb" exploit going around at the moment does anyone know? I have been playing on a server all day, the same server i usually play on (im not sure of the name, but its part of the standard hive, not a hard core server or anything) when I got disconnected near the NEAF. I reconnect to another server, it all connects fine. I run towards the NEAF first building, doors all shut etc, place is full of loot, looks good. I then start to get serious FPS drop, and I notice a whole host of people being kicked from the server for battleye clients not responding (Ive always presumed this happens when peoples games crash) I'd say the server had maybe 9 people on it, and I saw at least 5 kicked, all while I was getting serious FPS drop. Then my game just froze, while I Was inside one of the buildings at NEAF. I was not near any windows or anything, if anyone wanted to kill me, they would of had to of come inside the building. Now, any of the servers I log into, Im back on the coast with nothing. IVe been through 3 that I usually play on, but its tricky with the anti combat logging mechanic. Is there any way to see what happened to my character? I'm wondering if people are exploiting the new logout system by camping the airfields, and "lag bombing" the server close to them (OR maybe even their own server?) so everyone is disconnected and they can run in and kill the guy in 30 seconds. Am I just being paranoid? Rather annoying, I just spent all day building this character....but ZOMG ALPHA! I just wanted to float the idea that this all seems a bit strange to me. The way in which everyone seems to have disconnected, and I seem to have mysteriously died...

Ok, this has never happened to me before though. Ive been to PLENTY of military spawns too. (Unless this memory leak is new for this version) Im not saying that wasnt the cause, but everyone disconnecting at the same time has me a little suspcious.

this just happened to me too, and I did the same to get out of it. Go prone, lay paralell with a step (Across the stairs rather than in line with them) and then just keep rolling (e by default to roll right, q for left) Itll feel like its not working, but after a few tries youll just pop out. Took me about 45 seconds of constant mashing of E and eventually i came out of it.
