I think that was reverted in 1.7.1.5?

Surely this isn't allowed?

Doz has got my vote as well!

I've had this happen before, and it IS a glitch. The zombie's run INTO you, and the impact causes the damage like being hit by a truck.. it's not the attacking animation at all, and usually happens when I have a high ping. No qualms about it being my fault, yes of course it is I made them aggro.. but when something occurs that isn't intended and has such an effect then it is indeed a bug. Once again, no problems with zombies being able to legit kill you in one hit from 9k blood... but the actual RUNNING INTO YOU IMPACT >9K DAMAGE is a problem.

I raided the NW airfield with my friend today. All we took each were Binoculars, M1911, a hatchet, basic supplies (food, drink, morphine, meat etc). Our toolbelts were decently equipped, with toolbox, map, compass and hunting tools. So off we went, heading from our camp in ******. We decided to approach from behind the first hanger, sticking to the dense pine forest as much as possible. Hangers were mainly empty, had to deal with a few zeds inside.. hatchet ensured any other zombies weren't alarmed. Picked up an AK-74 with 2 magazines, and my buddy found an M5SD with just one mag in the fire station. I put my new rifle in my pack and carried on with the hatchet as my primary. Went through the industrial bit and found an empty fuel tank - nice, we'd stick that in our "parts" tent. Carried on through to the barracks which had a wire trap and a tank trap inside. Both of us had found toolboxes so the issue wasn't taking them down.. it was the closed door at the end of the hallway... was there someone inside? If there was, they would definitely have heard us, despite not firing a shot. I decided that I would go look since there wasn't any point both of us immediately dying.. so I crept up to the door and opened it. No one there..what a relief. But two weapons. M1014 Shotgun and AKM with 3 mags. Decided to leave the shotgun, but my buddy picked up the AKM and put it in his Coyote Backpack. Wasn't the most fruitful run, but we made it out with our lives.

It's the L key :)

Top tip I was given when I first started playing was to pick up a couple of tin cans. Before you have a weapon you may need to get into a building where there's a zombie just idling like a mofo. You can throw them and the sound acts as a distraction which will draw them out of their position, so you can sneak in and grab the loot!

"Oh no I made a mistake in my gameplay and am paying the consequences! OP!!!!!"

#2 out of those 3, but I want the one Rocket's wearing in the PC Gamer interview! Saying "Anyone in Cherno?" :D This one: http://imgur.com/F2ieK

I've found that if you get the "alt-tab-hold-down-key glitch" that alt tabbing out and then back in again also seems to fix it.

The one placed normally is seen by everyone, but there's another one you can place by shift-clicking... only you can see this. I think that's how it works anyway.

One time I had a zombie chasing me for a good 20 minutes, through forest, field and factory... eventually I just thought "screw it, gonna count down from 10, and then just dive on the floor prone and hope for the best". 3...2...1....hngg and then I got mauled to death and died. Don't try that.

Shout outs to Yoko, Glowing, Wonderland, Dan, wo0kie and Yeahimh for a lot of fun last night. Synchronized vault dancing and prone snake charming on Cherno docks was the best experience of my DayZ career yet! To many more awesome adventures -Daniel/pyrodayz

Would love this option in game.. so much so, that I made another thread about it accidently!

apologies

Just a box that pops up to say "are you sure you want to respawn? Y/N" I've only done this once, but I've been playing with friends on multiple occasions where they have also done it. Pressing escape with intentions of looking at the controls or the options.. and accidently hitting respawn. Cheers!

Added 3 or 4 of you lot, and I'm sitting in the empty mumble Critek set up for us! :D

Maps and watches everywhere

You guys must be really unlucky, because since the hotfix I've only aggrod zombies by accidently running or going across a road too early trying to save time. Still getting the attacking through walls sometimes but it to be more just corners and stairwells where the height between player and zombie is weird. I don't think starting without a weapon is such a bad thing, makes for a different kind of starting gameplay instead of "hi ho Makarov avenger"

Found people!

Loving the new patch, just having some trouble finding any sort of food/drink. Everything else is spot on. The new zombies are very fun indeed, definitely an improvement on the initial 1.7.1 release.

Probably been said thousands of times before, but an ingame, findable/lootable Journal which you can write whatever you want in. Somehow link it to an online database where you can type in someone's username and see their journal from the last time they logged off (so you can't "journal snipe" them)
