Dingus (DayZ)

I have the same problem and am eagerly anticipating a patch to fix it.

Why I love this game, despite it's flaws.

Need to place tent. Look for good place to hide it. See a big bushy pine next to a boulder. Figure I could place it between them and block off the view from at least two sides. Spam tents wiggling around trying to find a spot the ground is EXACTLY flat enough to allow me to place it. Tent pitches up half inside the tree facing the rock making a bit of a pinch to get to the ONLY place I get the option to access it. In order to access it I have to prone, be in first person, and aim at a weird point under the tent. Struggle to get this right for 5-10 minutes when suddenly my camera starts to vibrate and I think "well this can't be good." I hear bones cracking. I'm unconscious and bleed out. YOU ARE DEAD.

Closing the thread. There was a line and this one stumbled over it a long time ago.

You ever been killed by a tent? I have.

But how will I make my mazes?

You do not need multiple trade threads going in tandem, especially regarding the same proposition. Keep it in this one please.

No, just stop them from respawning at server restarts.

Fix duping/scripting. Get a new engine. Whatever. No point wiping otherwise.

Prone/crawl up some stairs.

Beginning to feel left out myself.

I just want the thermal for spotting.

Lingor threads to Off-Topic please. It is not supported.

If you follow any of the interviews, this is supposedly exactly what rocket has planned. Ok, I see. Forgive me for taking the thread as another empty complaint. You make a good point and there have been many suggestions to make the world even more dangerous. Personally, I liked the ones about hostile wildlife or NPC factions.

Obligatory

Death is endgame. There is no progression or gearscore in Day Z. There is no k/d ratio or promotion system. There are no levels. There is no bad guy. There is no plot to foil. You can establish a little secluded home somewhere in Chernarus and live forever, but you won't have much fun. Fun is risky, but if you accept death as inevitable, the risk is dampened. You play until you die, and then you play again, hopefully longer than last time. There is only death. What you do before or after it is up to you.

Quickest and simplest answer, but I am out of beans today.

I think a lot of people find these player structure items and instead of just leaving them, take them and put them up right there, just to do it. I see tank traps inside buildings constantly.

Getting the jump on a guy who trapped the entrance to a control tower with wire by entering from the ladder. He was loaded with everything except a .50 cal. My friend backed the jeep up to the front door and loaded it all in.

They don't call it Crawl Z for nothing.

Generally I see it used most as a trap. A common set up is to place some in front of the door to a control tower, and then wait in the stairwell for someone to start trying to remove it. They then pick the player off from inside, and climb out from the ladder to loot. It's just annoying because the wire keeps coming back, being attached to the server and all.
