Hello, This is my first post. Before I list some problems i have been having, I would just like to say that I am a big fan of this game...looking forward to completion. For the past few weeks I have been having some big problems that have made the game 100% unplayable. When I log into the game I search for servers with less than 30 ping. When I find a server and login, the game is completely blurry...can't see anything. To fix this problem, I hit esc - configure - video...as soon as i click on "video" the resolution corrects itself and I can see clearly...then close out of the menu and can start moving around. I cannot open doors, or pick up items, or put a weapon in my hands, or move items in my inventory. I am currently stuck inside a military barracks at the west landing strip. I have been here for more than a week and cant do anything. I have played around with video settings...set everything to "normal", 50%. I believe my comp meets the requirements to play the game: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU, Q8200 @ 2.34GHz, 8 GB. All of my other games work perfectly: TF2, L4D2, The Witcher, WOW, Battlefield. When I first try to login to a server, I have to wait for 300 seconds...watching the timer tick down...8 times out of 10, I get kicked and returned to the server menu. If the game loads up, there are more problems. Usually within 2-5 minutes, i get a red chain, a counter appears on my screen which says something like, "no signal" as it counts from 0 to 160 and then disconnects me from the server, returning me to the server menu, or, all of a sudden my screen will freeze for a couple of seconds and then it goes completely black. While the screen is black I can hear the regular game sounds...I can move around, i can hear all the sounds...I just cant see anything but black. The only thing I can do at this point is ctrl+alt+del, terminate the game and then reload and go through the same process until I get annoyed and turn the game off. fyi - these crashes happen 100% of the time. I haven't been able to get out of the building I am in for over a week. When I first started playing the game it worked great. Now it is unplayable. Before these problems began, 2-3 weeks ago, I had accumulated a good inv supply. I found that when I filled up one bag, 35 slots, I could put the full bag on the ground, pick up an empty bag, and then put the full bag into the empty bag, and I would have 10 slots left over, then I could repeat the process with another empty bag. I was carrying 5 bags, totalling about 225 slots full of stuff. At one point last week, I was able to put the bag I was carrying on the ground, thinking, great! I can finally do something. But the bag disappeared and never came back...so i lost everything I had...guns, ammo, food, carrying cases...everything. Can anyone help? I really want to play the game and it is incredibly frustrating. Everyday I get home from work hoping the game will work this time...nope! Can anyone offer some advice?

New Problem... so now that I have respawned the game seemed to be working fine. That lasted for about 2 or 3 hours. Now, every time I log in to the game I last for about 5-10 seconds before I get a pop up that says "Dayz has stopped working", with the option to click on "close program". Any ideas?

k, so I just logged in again and within 10 seconds I was kicked from the game and had to click "continue" to confirm the server change. logged back in right away to the same server, there was a long pause "please wait...", it was a few minutes. When the game loaded "you are dead". No idea how i died...someone probably read my posts and found me, lol! Anyway, it may have been a blessing because I had to respawn and now I can play again. When I respawned I checked my stats: Ping: 52 57 62 Bandwidth: 2330 2394 2475 DeSync: 0 5 minutes later, Ping: 50 53 56 Bandwidth: 1587 1617 1587 DeSync: 0 5 minutes after that, Ping: 76 82 85 Bandwidth: 958 983 1017 DeSync: 0 Played for 15-20 minutes after respawn and no blurry screen or disconnection issues!

Hello again, k, I thought I would share my most recent login experience, About an hour ago, I logged into the game. Found a <30 ping server and was able to login to the game. When the scene opened I was on the upper floor of the military barracks. My screen was a big blur so I hit esc to open the menu, clicked "configure", clicked "video", then my screen was crystal clear, click on "close", clicked on "close" again, then "close" again to get out of the menu, and back to the game. So now, I can see everything crystal clear, fully energized and hydrated, no indication that I am injured in any way. I decided to wait for a few minutes before I started moving around. Items started to appear on the floor around me, ie handcuffs, can of tuna, can of beans and a bag. When I point my cursor at the items, nothing happens. Normally there would be some sort of text like "take handcuffs" or "take canned tuna". I tried moving around after a few minutes, approached a door leading into a room with sleeping cots, when I tried to open the door nothing happened. I walked back to the items on the floor, still couldnt pick them up. I crouched in the corner of the room and left the game unattended while i went outside for a cigarette. When I came back in, 5-10 minutes later, I had been kicked from the game, and had to click an "ok" button to confirm the server change. So, I logged in to the same server again. The game loaded up right away without having to wait 300 seconds. About 10 seconds after the scene opened up, before I had a chance to correct the video blurry problem, my screen went black. Waited for a minute or two. Still black. I could hear my character moving around, foot steps and other sounds, but screen still was black. Nothing I could do. I hit ctrl+alt+del to go to task manager and terminate the game. I loaded up the game again and logged into a different server with 39 ping. When the game started I checked my ping, bandwidth, desync, here is what showed: Ping: 41 43 45 Bandwidth: 225 231 235 DeSync: 360 Thanks again for the help fellas

Thanks for the responses everyone. I'm not quite sure the blurry screen is blood loss. The health of my character is good. Fully hydrated and energized, no evident body damage. The last time a zombie made me bleed I bandaged myself up right away..in game, does the body reproduce blood over time? or do we have to get blood from an outside source? Is there something on the screen that would indicate I am suffering from blood loss? As for the connection and inventory issues, if the problem is desync, is there anything i can do to correct the problem?...aside from starting a new character? thanks again!
