ive found about 3 or 4 ammo boxes. no protective cases, and no med kits. anyone else having this problem?

got kicked from a server 3 times over 2 days. got the 'you have been kicked from server message' i didnt kill anyone and wasnt trolling or hacking server name: 'massive loot day night 24h time pvp qu/fr PUBLIC' im not really mad, but its just annoying to sit through the please wait screen or be in the middle of doing something and an admin just kicks you without warning. the first 2 times, i was one of 2 or 3 people in the server. this last time i watched 3 others get kicked before i was kicked. so just a heads up, dont go to that server

island loot is a reward for getting to the coast and swimming there and then not freezing to death. its hard enough to find a flare or matches to start a fire anyway, and then not die when you get to the island. island spawn is a dumb idea.

I have got to be the unluckiest player in DayZ
Hairy_eyeball replied to WilliamTheConqueror's topic in General Discussion
as many of the suggestions here say: go to low pop servers to get geared up. plus its fun to wander around alone and see all the great easter eggs hidden all over the map. you dont have to worry about other people while you look for stuff. i wont say im a pro, but ive been playing over 200 hours. so yea, ive seen some things 0_o I wouldnt mind helping you out at all. steam and in game name is same as here, hit me up if you want to run around -
are you kidding me? the level of zombies is fine at the moment. if you accidently set one off, another is not far off; and if you dont kill that one quickly, anotherwill spawn! I had 10 swarm me at one point because i got trapped in a building, with a broken leg(so i was stuck on the floor) and i kept hitting the walls with my axe. Finally i shot off my mp5 and it only made it worse, with about 3 or 4 more showing up. finally after they beat me till my screen was grey, almost out of blood, a broken arm and leg i was out of bullets and still stuck in the building with bodies all around that i couldnt get over. so i think the amount of zombies is fine how it is.
-
to all of you: unless you just arent finding stuff, ive found batteries, the mp5 buttstock, and fruit(apples). it is very few and far between when i find this stuff, but you have to check EVERYWHERE. it gets annoying and old really quick but you will find stuff.

Questions I should probably know the answers to

i have yet to experience a loot explosion in an outhouse :(
-
the further north/inland i moved, the more often i found things. not necessarily useful things, but a higher rate of loot. also try different servers. as stated above some servers are broken/programmed to have very little loot. and hey, if it doesnt matter or there is no point, then go ahead and try to run north and die. maybe you will get lucky and spawn inland and find something. surviving literally means having to change what you are doing to keep going. dont take the easy route out and just log out when your character gets hungry best of luck, [0pZ3D] Hairy_eyeball

yea, i had 2 drums in my inventory as well as one in the gun. so i believe they have either reduced the number that spawn or removed them for the time being although i know some people didnt get stripped of them or they have found them. its still unclear to me.

.55 loot, I'll just leave it at this.
Hairy_eyeball replied to billyangstadt's topic in General Discussion
seriously, they pulled a fast one on us. im so used to skipping the deer stands and useless sheds and outhouses but now they have everything from food to ammo and back -
"Only guns are configured now" - This can't be true
Hairy_eyeball replied to Iqfish's topic in General Discussion
i understand your pain, i have looked for about 8 hours for all types of loot to relay to my clan and log it away in my brain for future use. only near the end of my search did i find an SKS next to one of those armored troop transports. and got lucky with the correct ammo 10 minutes later. other than that, i found nothing but magnum ammo and .22s everywhere i go. i also cant seem to find any food other than rice or tactical bacon (but im not complaining too loudly on that one lol) it just seems the update needs some good tweeking. sometimes the coast has absolutly no loot whatsoever, and sometimes it has nothing but junk that you dont need or use. the north is where its at but im stumped on the gun issue as well. keep looking in the bases, ive found a bunch of AK mags and attchments but no guns yet. if you see me in the servers, stop and trade some loot! -
i enjoy the fact you cant sit in one town and loot it and/or kill bambis non stop, but the lack of food, strike that, non existence of food on the coast makes it almost not playable for someone new coming into the game. they wouldnt know to immediately run to the middle of the map to find food before they starve instead of exploring the immediate area they spawn in. This will help people to try to group together and survive as a team, but then again, the more people, the more food it takes to feed them. on top of that if someone gets injured from zombies you have to eat and drink MORE to get healthy again. I give this update a 5/10 stars due to the food issue.

I did have the bug where i had 2 in my inventory in .54 and they disappeared in .55 so hopefully they will spawn again or they will make a comeback

Opinions on teamspeak and DayZ SA?
Hairy_eyeball replied to Death By Crowbar's topic in General Discussion
I'd rather become a cannibal than weigh in on this topic. -
i actually wish there was an option to have a separate gamemode in game where you can ask for waves of zombies. and while zombies can be more of an annoyance that the real threat of other players stalking you, they can keep you on your toes so you dont let them creep up on you and ruin your gear or break your arms and legs.

Does a single player lagging cause server wide desync issues?
Hairy_eyeball replied to non-orthodox's topic in General Discussion
i would think it only affects other players if you are within sight of them. so unless your internet is sucking the life out of the server, it seems odd that it would affect everyone else and not just auto drop/disconnect you from the game. -
Can a moderator...or anyone give me some advice?

you dont have to pick up the mask and wear it while wandering. other than that i wait before i shoot due to some people have no choice in what they have to wear to stay warm. but the mask for me is an instant tell. its basically a big sign saying 'im a bandit'
