Death By Crowbar

This is brilliant. Matches - you should be able to set yourself on fire (and others, especially people who have burlap sacks on their heads).Camp Fires - if you run over them (or if zeds do) they should catch on fire.Portable Stoves - same thing, you should catch on fire.Gas Stations blowing up - should leave some fire and possibly catch people/zeds/animals too close on fire.Corpses - hide seems to game like. You should have to burn them to make them go away permanently.... but maybe that's going too far? What's the target ESRB rating on this game again anyway?

What if it just belong to some homeless guy, and you just came in and ransacked and destroyed the place? LOL. I still think it's hilarious you're throwing crap off a mountain ledge yet you're barefoot (with boots in your bag!?!?!). There's something hilarious and silly about the whole thing, especially with the irony of the other guy who made a post about how his camp went missing. HAHAHA, the more I think about this story the more I love it.

Find the gas station and shoot it until it blows up. People will come. You may think you're alone, but trust me, you are not. There's probably at least 2 people within a few hundred meters of you being quiet and trying not to be noticed while looking for loot. On a 39/40 server there's always someone in Berezino, but they may not be KOS and might be minding their business hiding/looting.

I find this interesting. jubeidok posts here about finding a nice camp full of problems.Exodor posts here his nice camp is missing.Probably unrelated but ironic!

Was this post about your tents? http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/208318-too-much-work-for-one-man/

Even Jubei Kibagami didn't go barefoot. There's a lot of broken glass, needles, nails, and sticks in Chernarus bro, don't become a statistic!

That's a good point. There's worse stuff than duping. However, even though I know how to dupe - I've seen the Youtube videos and I (as many others have) accidentally had it happen and been surprised to find my double - I don't dupe, because I know it's an exploit and a form of cheating. I'm not comfortable with cheating, any type of cheating. Even though duping is about as common and well known as out to 3PP look in ways that are questionable and not legit, I don't use the 3PP look exploits either (even though I don't play on Hardcore). It all boils down to what type of person you are - yes this is a game but have some pride in your play.

At the 17 second mark I notice you're barefoot. See if they have some shoes for you! :lol:

Corpse piles and corpse art will become a thing, pile them up in the middle of Berezino. Bring out your dead!

I make a run up that way maybe once per week for grins... but the last 2 times I went into the control tower and ended up with broken legs and/or dying due to the stair bug or whatever it is. Sorta deflating after making that long of a run from where I started. I know there's plenty more than the control tower to loot but it broke my spirit about heading in that direction. There's that one spawn point that's close and an easy run - if I ever get that one I'll head to NWAF in a heartbeat. It's high risk, high reward and although remote I've found there's nearly always someone there. Are you camping it on high pop servers or?

hothtimeblues you need to fix your nomenclature. Again, as accolyte has said, scripting isn't possible at this point in DayZ. The hacks or exploits that allow teleporting are something other than scripts. Don't confuse people by talking about something inaccurately. Also - yeah, the wipe is going to cleanse the world of all of the hacked and duped items, everyone is paying for the sins of the few, but we'll start off in a better place. I don't have to approach Novo only to hear a dude fire off 200+ M4 rounds (which was nice to hear only in that I knew to immediately turn around because I wasn't going to waste time risking dealing with a cheater with infinite ammo).

It's a known issue. As Robert Neville said, go there, put in your details, and vote it up! http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=12755

Yeah. Learn the map: http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus Learn to read signs on the road (they tell you what town it is and have arrows and distances to towns coming up) Learn how to find North, East, South, and West. In most cases the sun over your shoulder means you're facing roughly south. Finding a compass can help. Berezino, Novo, and NWAF are PVP hotspots.

I'm not sure such a list exists. There's a list of what's coming up (either planned or actively being worked on). Here's a swag at some of the stuff over the past few months: Fishing & Hunting More crafting (make backpacks from pelts) Camp fires Chem lights and flares Zed movements / pathing more reliable now via navmesh, far less likely to go through fences and walls (but doors still need work). Hopper zeds now in game (the ones that crouch and jump like a frog at you) More animals (and you can kill them). If you find chickens let everyone know because there's a lot of people who seem to be interested in that. If you find a pig leave it alone or Shrub Rocketeer ™ will come at you like a spider monkey. More weapon variety, new meelee and rifles. Crossbows and crafted bows. New towns on the map in the north. NEAF has been redone. Grenades! (although I'm yet to find one) Persistence (if I write a note and leave it in the street and the server reboots, it will still be there for someone to find when the server comes back up). Tents have been added.I dunno, that's a list of stuff that sticks out in my mind.

Oh yeah, today is patch day isn't it. Is this on Stable?

Some of those videos are by people who're very popular on Twitch or Youtube. Mr Moon, Frankie, Sacriel, etc. People will gravitate to where they are sometimes. I will say that ever since the spawns were moved North, and then since the spawns were made more disperse in the North I don't see as many people. I always find someone in Novo or Berezino, especially if I run down the street yelling or set a building a light with chem lights and flares and stuff. NWAF is a good place to find friends (and to die). When the spawns were in the south and everyone hung out in Elektro and Balota I always saw people, lots of people, and had a lot of good interactions... but for the past 2 months at least I do see less people, things are a lot more sparse. GIven how big the map is now and the spawn locations time is drawing near to raise the max server population up from 40.

According to accolyte scripting is impossible.

You missed the most important parts: Thank god they're going to blow it all away. All of that crap, nuke it! YES!!! *happy dance* Last night I was approaching Novo and I kept hearing M4 shots, very rythmic, as if they were doing it to a drum beat. After hearing about the 200th shot in a row I turned around and headed the other direction. I just cannot stand people with infinite ammo, and it's always the douches with M4's. Maybe because M4 mags are vulnerable to it where others aren't? I dunno, I just know I'm going to be VERY happy when this hits, and I imagine most others will be as well. Good night hackers, dupers, and identical twin clans who so obviously dupe gear each other up! Your time draws near, let's see how you fair living like the rest of us who try to keep it legit. Your aggressive corpse cannon ways are going to need some re-evaluating.

Flacid? Based on how well I did last night in my adventures through Chernarus I think I should change my in game name to that...

What are you filters set at? If your internet connection is spotty it may detect most/all servers as being beyond the max ping being filtered. It may not be your issue but it's worth looking at especially if you have to hit refresh a lot in order for anything to show up.

Or maybe you're related to Kobayashi...

Gotta wait for 3 second rule to no longer apply though!

Yeah, it's a gamble. Best things you can do are: Log your issue. If it's a duplicate, chime in on the original stating what happened to you, and vote it up. Be careful in buildings, only go up steep stairs when you're sure there's loot, and be careful going prone.They'll fix it all eventually...

This is more prone to happen in buildings with steep stairs, such as fire stations and the aircraft control tower on the air bases, but apparently it can happen elsewhere, especially when laying down. Here's one issue that sounds a lot like yours where it's being investigated, and laying down is one of the keys to how this particular one happens. Although anywhere with steep stairs I avoid entirely because it's taking a gamble until they fix it. You likely did nothing wrong. Hang in there...

And even if badly damaged they still work like pristine! Score...
