Some glitcher killed me at the NW airfield. He was inside the walls of the ATC. I talked to him for a bit before running out as I thought I had just shot his friend but apparently that was another guy. He then followed me and shot me as I exited the prison building. I just wish the character wouldn't stop reacting to input when your legs are broken. I wouldve survived if that hadn't been the case. I then respawned in Cherno and got shot immediately. I then got a Svet spawn and as I was climbing a crane somebody shot me with a Winchester, lol. I then spawned there again and tried to find the culprit but it seems he logged out. I then went to Berezino, survived the dicks there, killed a murderous bambi in Solnichy and made it all the way to the curve between Kambyshowo and solnichy when someone shot me. I got a Berezino spawn again and ran around with the douches there for a bit before I tired and went to bed.

I got a pleasant surprise today on the gents of novo server when this little fella appeared just outside Novo: I got him, took me a while to realize it was actually a zombie and he was actually eating me:

I had no idea this happened. Lost nothing. Did have an incident where I shot a person point blank and he didnt die though but I figured its just regular Dayzing.

Seriously? You go up and punch him and he goes five metres away and does nothing?

They should make it so you can wear layers of clothing. That way you wear a jacket over a shirt and when it rains the jacket becomes wet but not the shirt. For instance you can wear a raincoat over ANY clothing in real life and should be able to do so here. It shouldnt have to be the only thing you wear. The protection from damage that clothes give should also be removed as its quite unrealistic. Only special clothing should give protection like leather, kevlar and vests of different kinds. Definetiely not a holster.

How is this a new thing? Server hopping has existed since the game came out so its a bit late to whine about it. The only thing you can do about it is NOT do it. If everybody makes this constant choice the problem goes away. Unfortunately thats not going ot happen so instead we have PRIVATE servers which solve this problem but creates a host of other problems mainly loot missing from areas. I went to Elektro yesterday on Wobo, grumpy and Novo servers and couldn't find one single spawned item in any locations. Sure, there were tons of bambimeat lying around but only one person had a gun and everyone wanted to have it. By going inland for a bit loot was easy to find. The problems with things working and then suddenly not working is something I cant understand either. We used to have working animals, now - not working, we used to be able to paint guns and use attachments proberly, now - not working, we used to be able to grow things and farm them, now - not working. I know its a work in progress but I don't see the progress in going backwards.

Game? Theres no game. Only bugged deer standing still in the forest and cows running around in panic.

Not a lot interesting happened today, I shot a guy with full ghillie with my scoped cr257 from about 50 metres but nothing happened. Ive noticed you almost always miss your target with that rifle if you have a magzine and scope. Magazine and no scope works fine and scope and chambered also. Somethings surely amiss there. Anywwho, i ran away to hide in another house as the ghillie guy killed people all over cherno so I thought I'd try to get another shot at him but as I enter a twostory red house a guy sits in one of the rooms. he shoots and I quickly go for the next room when the door to that room closes right in front of me! I have to open it but is hit again and go unconscious after entering the room. Very strange and it happens again right after on the same server. I respawned and after gearing for a bit a guy attacks me. I run towards a tin shack and just as I am to enter the building the door closes right in front of me. I go to another server but is immediately killed by a hacker in Elektro whos killing all the newspawns with infinite ammo and some kind of weird thing where hes gliding along the ground under the floors of the houses. I leave the server and go back to the other one. I am accosted by some annoying french guy calling me names and tormenting me. I grow tired of him and shoots him with a IZH rifle but ofcourse he doest die but continues to annoy me. I lead him on a merry chase then jump from the docks in Kamenka. I then log out. I log in five minutes later after getting a cuppa tea and as I make my way to the military base the annoying bastard appears again. Luckily I can shake him off in the forest.

I got tricked :( I got to cherno with a relatively new character and someone shot at me with a handgun so I ran. Having only a bow theres not a lot I could do but I checked for the culprit. As I'm sneaking around a guy appears holding a shotgun. As he seemed quite newly spawned i didnt expect much trouble but stayed away anyway til he whispered to me, telling em to come over, theres a guy etc.I move closer and he talks really faint so I have to move closer and BLAM! dead. Then the taunting. I got so mad I made a new character and ran all the way from Svet but when I got to Cherno it was empty.

You're not using teamspeak?

The best patch ever zombiewise was 0.55. The so called famine patch. The zombies were really challenging. As a newspawn with no weapon you would run for your life if a zombie attacked you. And if you were geared you would shoot them. Not because you liked to but because you HAD to, Sure, there were lots of issues with them but this was the best thing they had done with zeds so far. Memories light the corners of my mind. Misty water-colored memories of the way we were. Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind..........

I logged into a full WOBO server and found myself at the NWAF(no idea how I got there). I went into the new barracks at the domed hut and shortly after a guy runs in. I sit by the doors so he doesnt see me so I train my gun on him. As he turns around I say " dont shoot" expecting him to shoot. To my great surprise he doesnt. We talk and traverse the airfield together. Unfortunately we meet no other players so we go to kabaninho and log out. Surprisinlgy I am still alive when I log in later. So there ARE good people out there. Huh.

Its a server for a cracked version of the game. Why someone wold want to crack an early acces game is beyond me but hey, each to his own. Contact Bohemia directly. Theres most likelt no reward.

Kinda interesting reading: http://russianoptics.net/aksu.html

Its not like it matters if you get wet. Nothing is ruined, your gear still works as it should and you can get dry in five minutes if you need to.

They mustve missed the fact that the IZH rifle actually have a scope rail. It even says so in the information about it if you inspect it ingame. Weird stuff.

Apparently if you spawn inside a building you can shoot out if you stick your gun barrel through the wall. There are people glitching into the walls in certain buildings and sittign inside waiting. Strangely, this glitch has been around for ages, it has been fixed adn the glitching little kiddies have found new ways to do it. I guess they just don't like the idea of fair play. Ive acccidentally spawned inside of buildings on several occasions. Usually it happens when you log out on an upper floor and you kind fall through the floor to the room below. Once I spawned below Triple yellow in cherno, down on the ground and could see the people crawling around up top and inside the walkway.

This game does not really promote such slow gameplay as its easy to gear up and a life is not worth anything. If there was an element where you only got so and so many deaths a day people would most likely change their playstyle and be more careful. The game would also become extremely boring as ten people sit in a bush around the NWAF and nobody wants to do anything.

I make a new character every day and have no problems gearing up. In about half an hour I usually have decent clothing, a backpack and a shootable gun. And theres really no trick to it. Go to a mid sized town, check EVERY house, barn and outhouse and you will find loot. I usually always make a stone knife, cut up rags til I can make a rope, cut a stick and either make a bow or keep the stick on my back depending on what I can find. I make an improvised backpack as soon as I find a burlap sack and then youre set. I have to say though that I don't like the idea that you absolutely have to go to the NWAF or Myshkino to find automatic weapons. Mainly because I dont like those places. If Helis spawned a bit more random and not mainly around the NWAF it would help. Also the prison buildings should spawn military loot as well as the humvees, jeeps and trucks. It just doesnt need to be as massive as in 0.57.

I died today while standing on a walkway in a metal barn with a loaded 1911 waiting for a guy with an axe to eaither leave or come upstairs. Instead he just hits into thin air with his axe and I die. I got so angry I did what i normally never do, suicide to get a cherno spawn and ask him how the hell he did it. I gave up after two Svets and three Berezino spawns and went with the svet one.

Do others have this on startup as well? I found out why theres no loot in the schools. Its all in the air:

This ones quite simple, How about when you search for an item that you can see exists right in front of you, you find it right away? I mean, if I stand on a a rocky beach I WILL find a rock in a second. If I stand in a forest I WILL find a stick. If I pick apples from a tree where there are apples I WILL find an apple. etc etc The only thing that happens with the current system is a big waste of time and a lot of frustration while you're looking at: "I searched and didn't find anything" ten times before you find that damn rock you've been staring at.

MURDERER!

Yes. Yes I am. Yesterday i had an interesting encounter. I went to the NW airfield armed with nothing. I had guns and ammo but nothing that fit together. Luckily I found some ammo for my cr rifle and a magnum so i would be able to defend myself. i didnt have a magazine for the cr but a scope so when i found an AK I dropped it but kept the scope. As I had just made my way past the hangars I see a guy checking them out. I call to him and hail, Like a normal person do, when I notice he has a friend, they scream "Get down" like some crazy american cops so I bolt. I hide in a tree and wait and soon one walks past. Im thinking about shooting him with my magnum but decide not to and he scurries away without noticing me. I go back and get my cr rifle and load it and go to scope out the airfield. its raining so vision i slow so i make it towards the other side when someone shoots with an AK. I run and hide and as im moving through the trees I meet another player so im forced to drop my rifle to get the magnum out. he shoots but misses. i hide in a tree again. I see him moving away. I wait for a bit and try to get to my rifle but I'm shot dead by a Blaze. I had another little incident at the airfield with another character the other day. I come to the tents from the north and find a lot of ruined gear in the sandbag compund. As Im in it I hear shooting so i make my way towards it. I see a guy running from a corpse and he goes up to the Observation tower. Someone is sniping from the other side but as this guy doesnt get shot I guess they are in cahoots. When he climbs down I pop him easily. I wait for a bit for a reaction then try to get to his corpse but Im shot at and hit. I run away and make into the western forest. As Im passing by the deer stand there I notice a guy inside it, no two guys, no three guys! I tell them not to shoot me and raise my hands. They emerge and two mroe emerge, one in full ghillie. The others all have the same gear, blackskull balaclavas and silenced Augs. I only have an SKS so cant do a lot against these. I tell them about my adventures and that im leaving the airfield. They are very slow to reply but in the end say that they cant trust me and kills me. Rotten bastards. This encounter is the reason why I didnt give up when i met the two guys in the encounter above adn I propbably wont for a while. So unnessecary to kill someone that clearly isnt hostile when you are in superior numbers and firepower.

Ok thx, I'll try making a sack.
