Hi peeps, I just started playing this game and instantly got attacked leaving me injured but not dead with no way to die and therefore no way to respawn. Thinking out the box I thought I know, just restart the game so deleted my game save file and tried playing again. The game generated a new save file but then won't let me join any servers as it says I have modded my save file (which I haven't, I just wanted to start again from new. I tried reinstalling the game, I have even opened a new Steam account and purchaced a second copy of the game but it just won't let me play anymore. Does anyone know how to fix this please? Thanks.

ta peeps. The new Steam account and game download has worked for now, not ideal but at least I can now play again :-)

think what you like, I'm not a computer person, play consoles normally. Getting the second copy was out of pure frustration, all I did was delete the 2 files labelled DAYZPROFILE file in the DAYZ folder in the hope it would wipe the profile so I could start again. When I did open DayZ again those files were then auto repopulated by the game but now it thinks I have cheated. I don't see the point in cheating on computer games, especially not games like this, the whole point is the fun in finding out how to play, I just was unable to die so was unable to respawn which was all I wanted to do. If ya don't know the answer then not a problem, will hopefully find someone who can help.
