I want to a see a 180 shot of my character being killed in slow motion. This way I should be able to see who it was that shot me in the back. Really though I don't much care, I do like the idea of a counter though.

If you disconnect immediately and try again until you find your guy you should be good. Whenever you see that message, disconnect, don't move, don't look around don't check your inventory, if you do the character will be gone for good since the new one is the one that will save to the data base.

Compass are pretty common in fire stations

I like the FNX (when I have mags) otherwise the magnum, then the 1911, then the CR75. The P1 has failed me too many times to talk about and is a slough of that which come from the behind of a diarettic dog.

In DayZ zeds are not zombies in the classic sense, they are infected, we go round and round on this but it is true, think 29 Days Later or The Crazies rather than Night of the Living Dead or Walking Dead. One or two hits to the cranium of a zed with a machete or splitting axe or even garden hoe will take a zed down, anything else, except a fire axe is pretty much useless melee wise. Were you all ON THE SAME SERVER when looking for your friends? Just asking, not trying to flame or piss you off but it seems no one has asked the obvious. Once you run around a bit you'll all be more familiar with the land marks and can set up some meet sites that are easy for everyone to find that are in low population relatively safe areas. Stay away from cities and the Black Forest (it crawls with Zeds for some reason) as much as possible.

I don't mind the new night so much. Should it be darker? Yes, at least until moonrise. Should it be as dark as it was? Only if there is some bad weather.

What I would like to see are burned out airplanes and old busted down Migs at the airfields. Maybe a few small, abandoned consulates from other nations in Cherno, but that would be it. No FoB's or anything like that and the heli crashes should be V22's and/or CH53's. I am also wondering why there are no visible efforts to quarantine the cities from each other during the outbreak. There isn't even one police or military or medical check point on any of the major roads leading into or out of Chernarus. Where're the mass graves not to mention huge traffic jams and back ups? If there weren't time for that there sure as hell wouldn't be time for FoBs. I am pretty sure that DayZ isn't beholding to the Arma time line.

On just one server I found 8 30 rnd AKM mags and one 15rnd MP5 mag. No MP5 yet but I have my AKM and my FNX45 all tricked out.

No I am not, it's an alpha, you wanna be disappointed head over to Rust, no updates for a long ass while and now they are doing a complete change of EVERYTHING.

Yes, confirmed, still trying to bring them back to experimental, still haven't found one there, but I haven't been looking real hard either...

Before you enter a danger area dump your gear in an easily remembered spot and only take with you what you need to have. This is especially effective just after a server reset. This way if you get schwacked while in the danger area there is a good chance you can make your way back to it and it will still be there if you were not under survaillence before hand. I have saved rucksacks full of ammo boxes, first aid kits, and other handy stuff along with a mosin and a pistol. I tend to grab a ruck in the danger area to fill up.

Never had that issue, I have run back to NWAF from down Berizino way and made it back. Even stopped to eat and check a few police stations along the way. Everything was there when I got back.

Yeah, I kind of do the same. I had my best dog, my boon companion, die in early October last year so I play to escape from remembering that. It was devastating for me personally, worse than when my own father passed. I miss that dog something awful.

I believe it is/was a numbers station that was cover for a biological weapons lab. The lab for Captain Tripps was disguised as a USDA Agricultural Station. I stay away from there as much as possible, I don't even like looking at the tower...

OMG, I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.

I can see your point. This is why I pretty much only play on the official experimental servers. Besides, I'd rather risk losing it completely than having some shithead ruin it all in a firefight that I might survive while he does not. When I do play on my server I have stopped doing random resets, even if I get killed.

Use an axe on a bush to get your sticks, it will say kindling. Leg pain is like the low gas light in your car, you can go pretty far on it. I've never had a leg break from leg pain in SA.

Yes, Mystic is correct, a splint will fix you right up, don't waste a morphine for that.

All I can say is that it works for me, what happens is it will turn brown when it is cooked. If I don't pay attention to it or if I walk out of the range of the fire for some reason, it burns. I have cooked in the woods and in sheds, never tried in a house, never used stones.

I dunno, but, I had a tactical vest with 2 pistols (an FNX and a .357) in it, I was engaged by a fellow with an SKS, he unloaded on me with his whole capacity. The vest and the pistols were ruined and I wasn't knocked unconscience or even bleeding. He then pulled a fire axe and hit my hunters ruck, ruined it and everything in it and again, I wasn't even bleeding (it had 4 protective cases in it). I finally shot him with my SKS.

Right now, in experimental, the walls for these buildings are solid and the entry door is unopenable. On the north side of the new village East of Novo they have one military jail, it's next to an industrial building and set back a little from the road, be careful, the second floor is bugged and will break your legs if you are not careful.

It was spawning in wooden floored tents before they broke, I imagine it will again.

Yeah, but you can't live with them or shoot them either. Back on topic though, how could a zombie moan or scream if it isn't breathing? Breathing in and out is required to make speech, without that no speech. Yes the zeds should bleed since they are zombies in the 28 Days Later kind of way, not the Sean of the Dead sort of zeds. I think we should be able to break thier legs too..

I think the most likely way to kill server hopping is not by timers or any such like that but by not allowing toons to persist from server to server. 1 server =1 toon

650+ hours and it is the first time I ever found one out side a tented area, it was ealier in the past week.
