I you're playing on experimental you'd be better off writing in that thread. if you're not, theres no problem with the loot.

God damn hipsters.

Today I killed a guy without speaking to him for the third time in a 1000 hours of Dayz. It was on the prison island though and he/she(it was a blond girl) had an Ak so I didn't want to chance it. I even managed to swim ashore after on a 30 man server. Just after karma got me and another decently geared character got popped in Zeleno. I didn't hear a thing and then when I stepped out of the prison building carefully, BRRRRT! I respawned in Elektro and almost died right away by some zeds but managed to pull through it. Later with a different character I grew some zucchinis in Kamyshovo. There were lots of ruined gear laying around there but no people. Later some brazilian guy wanted food but he didn't speak english so I sent him to Berezino, hehe. Strange to play on a EU server when you're in South america. his ping must've been really bad. Also someone kept killing everybody in Elektro with an M4. When i finally spotted him the server froze so I got a look at him. He had parked a truck in teh square and picked people off as they came up to it. The guy only had a fully equipped M4, a motorcycle helmet and a backpack. Nothing else. And everyone he killed was in short bursts of two or three shots max. Pretty weird. Strangely, on the same server I came across this yesterday:

i would like to start a discussion about the current looting mechanics...
Killawife replied to joe_mcentire's topic in General Discussion
You can usually pick it up if you make room for it in your inventory. Then just point cursor at it and it should highlight. -
The most perfect summary of DayZ in less than 2 minutes!

DONT TRUST PEOPLE NAMED DIMITRI!!!!!! -
Killed a guy who attacked me for no reason. He was stupid as I had a shotgun ready and he just an axe. Later I got killed by two bandits at NW airfield. They were very bad shots but got me in the end after my legs got broken and I couldn't get my gun out. I told them not to kill me but they didn't listen. Also found a lootgasm at Elektro. I was so happy that I fell off the hospital roof and broke my damn neck. It was a weird one though as I found m4 mags, ammo boxes, lots of intestines and this: There was no reason for all the fireplaces as there were not a lot of people on the server at the time and it had recently restarted.

Log out and log in again works for me.

question regarding persistance and dead bodies...
Killawife replied to HarryPotter (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
If someone find your body and hides it it doesn't dissapear, its just unaccessable for everyone. Its a silly thing to do. As for landmines, sometimes they blow, sometimes they don't, it doesn't seem to matter that they are pristine. Its a Dayz thing -
No thats no justification, its more like cheating. I played on private servers which were the brokest and it was a pain in the ass but serverhopping would've have done nothing to cure it. You don't HAVE to play with the same character all the time, you can just make a new one. Its actually quite fun(not in broke 0.55 though). I probaly have ten or fifteen different characters running right now and only four are decently geared and I dont play those much as the most fun is gearing up a new one.

Killing someone for his boots, its very "Mad max"y at least. If you didn't already know this theres a bug with the heli spawns so they always spawn in the same three locations, one west of vybor military base in teh fields, one a litle bit from there on the northwest of Kabanino and one northwest of Lopatino. They are empty most of the time, mainly due to the loot spawning a bit away from the heli but also because two seconds after a server restarts theres twenty guys there. Lots of people camp these places now. I did what I always do with the same result. I saw a guy in the corridors on prison island. He had his back to me looking at something on the ground so I raised my pistol and said "hello we don't have to kill eachother." Ofcourse he didn't want to be friends so I ended up hiding in a bathroom and logging out :/. When I logged in a bit later he was gone but someone sniped at me as I was running across the bridge from the prison to the other area. I let them shoot maybe ten shots or so standing there with my hands up but they couldnt hit me. Its pretty far so not so strange. But it meant I couldnt swim so I had to log out again :/ Later I logged in again and made the swim only to realize I had left my matches in the prison to make room for a rak, so now its pretty cold:/

Those mines are tricky bastards. I took a swim for Prison island. After swimming maybe a third of the way someone started shooting at me from the beach, Sounded like an ak. They mustve shot fifty rounds not hitting once. As I got to the island I wiated for a quite a while for someone to come swimming but they never came. Good thing as I had no bullets for my rifle :) I joined a new server and spawned at Berez. I looted there for a while and didn't see a sinlge player on a 30 man server so I ran west along the coast. At factory i met a newspawn who wanted me to kill him. I said no so he followed me for a bit yelling obscenities in french adn trying to kill me. At factory he left, probably to take a leap off the tower. As i got to Solnichy another newspawn follows me and tries to hit me. I continue running and after quite a while he stops and loots some houses instead, I continue on and get to Kamyshowo where I encounter some spade-armed fellows chasing an unarmed screaming person. They set off after me instead but i just run away and they scream racial slurs and stuff after me as I leave them in a cloud of dust. When i get to Elektro theres a bunch of people shooting, which would explain the number of newspawns I've encountered. I don't have a gun so i climb a rooftop and try to spot someone. As I lay there I hear a mosin shot just nearby. I look around and notice a guy on the firestation roof. He hasn't seen me so I sneak off and hide in a corner, crying for mommy.

Tag & Release ep#15 – Not every hold up ends with success – Holding up geared players (6:51)
Killawife replied to sobieski12's topic in Gallery
What had he done to you to deserve being axed down and captured? I just don't understand why people always seem to go for this option. You must understand that everytime you do this to a player, this player will most likely gun down the very next player they see without even giving them a chance, like you did. And the player that gets gunned own will most likely be me :( If I had been that player and you had asked me for ammo, i would have given it to you, providing you're not a complete douche(many are). Today i ran along the coast from Berezino to elektro. I met five players along the coast, all of them newspawns that had probably just gotten shot. Four of them attacked me, calling slurs and obscenities as I ran away and they wasn't able to kill me. Only one player ran in the opposite direction and avoided conflict. Sure, lots of people will say this is what causes tension in the game and such and theres probably something to it but I just see it as tedious boring behaviour ruining the gameplay. You did do a good thing though in not just shooting him in the head right away as he lay onconscious, so kudos for that. Last time I did that i was attacked right away as my opponent woke up. -

See player - attack player, then say sorry. Pretty weak -
I tried this earlier but couldn't stand playing with such short view settings. Also my game runs better with longer view range. Lower fps but not as much chopping. Its quite a disadvantage to not see as far as with the standard settings.

Umm, there is no problem with the food right now but there was before the hotfix, which is what this post is all about. You didn't "suck" because you starved back then, it was broken and no food or items that could be used to make food was spawning.
-
One of my characters got one-hitted by a zed again. But on the upside I found 9 AK's and a east suppressor in Pavlovo mil base. No mags though but I had one from earlier. The lootgasm was insane, I found six magnum snaploaders in the same room. Too bad that when theres so much of the loot, much of it is garbage.
-
HAHA! That was awesome.
-
If the mine is lying on top of the ground it is not activated. if it is sunk into the ground it is active. Unfortunately items tend to not do what they're supposed to in this game so there no sure way to know but to send a bambi in first.
-
Whats really the point of hoarding so much ammo and guns? I mean, enough is enough right? Its not like you're going to get to use all of it, or even a fraction.
-
I've set three mines total. Blew myself up twice so i can't recommend it. And I was really careful too. Bear traps are better.

Pointless KoS:ing and wrong forum part too.

Today was the day of the logouts. I started in elektro in a house where I had ended the day before. Almost right away i hear m4 fire nearby but having no weapon but a chainsaw I decided to run for the harbour block instead. I heard a mosin start shooting as I scurried away but apparently not at me. I got to the TEC building and felt safe but when i step in I see a dead body in the stairwell. I check him and hes quite recently killed. I proceed upstairs and as im at the third floor walkway i hear clickings from above. I run in teh corridor and close the door. I wait inside with my saw raised and hear someone reloading. I curse myself for not running up instead but its too late. I wait for at least five minutes but nobody comes. I log out to avoid getting shot. I play with another character whos at severograd. Its mostly looted and theres no trucks so i head towards the military base. I notice theres a skislope with a tower up top where I havent been so I go towards it. As i sit in a bush drinking for a bit, a zed comes up and says hello. I die. I play with another character spawning in stary sobor. This one had been beaten to a pulp earlier by invisible zombies. Most of the equipment was ruined adn the crossbow has some bug so you cant aim it. I had to run from house to house closign doors behind me as zeds attacked ferosiously. I managed to eat and drink, get some new clothes and continue to novy sobor. I find some more food and a blaze so i can ditch the crossbow. I go to Vybor mil base and find a high capacity vest and an ak74su and silencer but no clip. As I loot the last barrack two trucks pull up. I decide its time to leave and logs out. I play with another character in novo. I spawn on top of the highest tower so I'm a bit scared climbing down as you can easy lag to your death or get shot by some coward. I make it down and go to the firestation. Outside I see another guy come running from the other direction. He has a rifle and spots me. he ducks for cover. I log...decide to not log out and instead get a better position behind one of the walls outside. I only have a cr75 but its should be enough if I'm close enough. I expect him to go inside the firestation but strangely he doesnt but sneaks away. I take a long tour around the town to flank him but before I manage to get into position the server restarts. Perhaps it was for the best.

Server hopping? Is there a solution? If not, what else....
Killawife replied to rickyriot's topic in General Discussion
This is not the case for me. I play on four different private servers frequently and maybe six or seven more on occasion. I basically never join a server unless theres 20 players or more on it. I don't have a "home" server mostly because I'm playing solo and don't have to care what other people want. My best geared character right now is actually on Public 3pp since my second best geared one got shot the other day. I understand that people hop to get the best loot and that is precisely why this should be removed. Theres simply to little effort required to gear up to fully geared, I think it should be easy to gear up to survival level then very hard to attain fully geared status. But when you can sit and hop twenty different vybor bases or prison islands in an hour its just not fair or even fun. I remember the first time I found an m4 in this game. I was super-exstatic about it and Carried it for a good two hours before I was shot :/ Still it was a very special feeling to actually find one. Then My friend learned how to server hop so we did that for a while and gearing up was super-easy. I quickly grew bored of it though so when he quit Dayz I stopped hopping. It wasn't hard, anyone can do it if they want to. Just say no to dru.....hopping. -
Just a nice day at the beach:

This happens, lol:
