I've found some places are easier to logout than others. I logged out when playing with a few friends. They stayed on and watched a Z run right for me after I logged out and the Z killed me with one hit. They didn't have time to react. Also, if I see Zs in some wooded areas. I wait a minute or two to see if any aggro, kill those then log. What do you do?

I like the idea of the humorous RP approach. Also agreed on the skiddish voice and actions indicating someone with a nervous trigger finger. Roll in smart and confident (and ready for shit but not showing it) and things may go okay... go from there. Thanks for all the replies. :)

I'm all camo'd up in the name of self-preservation. :) Same with my friends. We're not bandits and tread lightly / avoid others at this point. Still learning the game/ropes. I hope when we see others they're friendly or just not dumb enough to try to kill four armed players and just leave us alone. Happy trails...

I did however not long enough to have this happen.

Good info. Thanks!

I've lost a clip and now a protective case when putting it on the ground by a tree. The clip was then up on a branch I could not loot from. The case disappeared. Is this common? What do you do when you have to put stuff on the ground to ensure it is reachable and doesn't disappear or go out of reach? Thanks in advance. Hoogs

I was curious if DayZ SA gives bandits the gray scarf on their head? I haven't seen many folks yet in SA but do recall seeing them and avoiding them in the ARMA2 MOD version. Thanks for any input. Hoogs
