For me chat works fine even after changing the button for it. I did however find one thing that might be something to look at. If you change the graphic settings, a part of the screen can sort of fall off. Everything looks normal but parts of the top, bottom and edges of the screen are missing. I think its related to aspect ratio but not sure. I just reverted everything to standard end went from there when it happened to me.

Seems like you did quite well anyways. You learned how to fix your legs and found a few items before getting KoS:ed. A normal day in dayz. I witnessed something also typical yesterday. I came to the NE airfield and see a guy fighting a crawler. He is having problems killing it so I ask him if I should help him, I kill the zombie with my AKM, give him a bandage and go on my way since he isn't speaking. Almost immediately I meet another guy at the ACT but he is friendly so we speak a bit and I go on my way. After a minute or so I hear shooting so I hide and look towards the ATC with my Binos. I then see the friendly guy looting the guy I helped with the zombie, obviously having killed him while a newspawn stands by the side waiting for his turn to loot. After looting they stand and are probably talking and all of a sudden the newspawn attacks the friendly guy with his fists. The friendly guy wins and runs away. And all this for basically nothing as none of them had anything of value. Two guys dead and one guy probably pretty happy about surviving the situation. I could've shot them all but didn't. Later I meet another friendly guy at the top of the tower in novo. We talk for a bit and proceed down the tower. When I'm about to step outside I get shot at and run inside. I heal myself while the other guy gets attacked and killed. I spot the assailant and are just going to pop his head open like a watermelon but nothing happens. I get up my axe and chop him. They are both dead. Turns out my ammo got ruined from the first shots I got but the gun is fine. I loot and go on my way. Later I hear more shooting and sneak closer. Two guys with m4's have murdered another, also carrying an M4. They spot me so I run, hide and eventually log out. And this is all just from a couple of hours of gameplay. The day before was waaaay more eventful with my character dying four times and lots of fighting for survival.

I've always wondered who the coward was that lurked in the mountains shooting newspawns was. Now I know.

I want this too. As it is now all weapons you find are either Pristine or ruined so theres little use for the wck. Only once have I found a magnum thats was badly damaged and ofcourse I couldnt find a kit then. But being able to repair scopes and other rifle parts would make it really meaningful to carry around.

I felt really sorry once. I ran towars Elektro from the north beach, and when I got to the first houses I suddenly see a zombie in front of me just standing there. I had my sks up so I shot him. Just then I realized that it was another player that was probably just afk. I said sorry a few times and tried to bandage him put he was dead as a doornail. A few minutes later I was sniped while sitting in the firestation tower munching on some beans. I guess its karma.

The fun part of the game is building the character. using the items you find and trying to survive for a bit. Having all the good gear is boring since you often get attached to it and do not dare do anything rash or funny,. Its better to count on getting killed once or twice every time you play and have fun doing it. This is not so much a gear-based game as many others as its easy to loot up and sometimes you can find a corpse or kill someone within minutes of spawning and then you get loads of things for free.

Before the patch I liked the knives. Fast and effective. Now they are useless. The machete works though. You have to hit a zombie two or three times though which becomes a bit of a problem if there are three of them. Or if they are invisible, then it gets a wee bit harder.

Four times this has happened to me, the first time I complied, was handcuffed, forcefed rotten fruit and had my legs broken. Needless to say I died shortly after. The second time I also complied but was shot almost instantly. The third time I told them to fuck off, was beaten, told them to fuck off again, was shot. The fourth time I tried being overly friendly, was handcuffed and left the server. So with 99% certainty, if someone yells at you, "put your weapon" down, you wil die. Better to go out fighting and maybe take one or two of the bastards with you.

People screaming "put your weapon down!" or similar should just stfu. Nobody will do that. Its better to go out bravely and get shot. That way you can start over, find the bastards, kill them, kill their siblings, kill their wives, kill their dogs, burn their houses down, burn everybodys house down that owes them money, burn every house that seems to be almost the same size as their houses.....and then rest.

I joined a night server. Seeing nothing I blindly looked around for stuff running away from zombies. While fiddling with my fleshlight I was knocked out by a zombie and never woke up again.

Lol! "I've been here for four hours, is it safe to come out?"

I found an ammo box in a hangar at airfield. Other than that I agree that its ridicolous that zombies can hit you after they die but I've noticed that running away from them immediately after you kill them cures this. Still stupid though. Got three pants ruined in one game the day before yesterday just because of this crap. People laughed at me as I ran at them with only boxers on, swinging my axe. As for persistance it needs some serious tweaking. Theres absolutely no loot anywhere so even if the idea of "living off the land" is quite nice you can't do it since you need an axe, a knife, cooking equipment and a pickaxe just to get you started. Unless you wanna live off berries that is. I'm also curious as to when some of the items you can find will have a use. Why is there a wrench that you can't use, pliers that you can't use, ducttape that you can't use, why can't defibs be used to revive people? and why can't you tear any kind of cloth into rags? I bled to death a while ago when my rags gots ruined and I couldn't find anything to bandage with. I was wearing perfectly fine bandage-like clothes on my body but wasn't allowed to use them. Good things though: I like the zombie onslaught. I wouldn't mind there being even more and angrier zombies, as long as they die when I hit them.

It sucks. When you have nothing it doesn't matter but when you have worked hard for your crap it really does suck.

Regular character for me too. But it was soooo boring playing on these servers. There basically no loot at all.

Since the weapon spawn is completely random the only thing you can do is check all common places over and over again: Police stations, fire stations, schools, piano houses, airfields and military bases. The mosin, shotgun and some other guns also spawn randomly in normal houses and apartments. Its usually no point in checking all houses though as its very time consuming but go for the ones above and move on to another town.

I found one at Sw airfield. right smack in the middle of the runway. Lots of stuff was scattered around it but no m4s. Only thing useful was a high capacity vest.

Found one in a hangar yesterday. didn't need it though as I already had one from earlier.

Teh funniest moment I remember was quite a while ago. I was newly spawned outside berezino and had onyl a Fire axe for protection. I snuck into town and hear lots of shooting. I went into a house and went upstairs and come upon two guys looting a bleeding corpse. They don't see me but I'm afraid to attack them as I only have the axe so I go downstairs and move a few houses over. I go into a room there and hear someone moving below me so I close the door and ready my Axe. I'm pretty sure one of those camoed bastards will burst in with his M4 and RATATATATAT! when the door opens. I strike with my trusty axe brainbiter, hard and true......and hit a bambi square in the head. He drops like a log and I'm like Sorry dude sorry and I bandage him with my t-shirt. I have nothing else so i sit there and wait. After a while he wakes up so we talk for a bit. Then we charge the guys in the house next door with our axes and are promptly shot down. The end.

Here's what happened and its not untrue: I logged into a server just outside of Berezino. There were nasty people there so i ran away and logged out. Logged into another server and immediately heard Zombie noises, even before I could even see anything. When I got in there were no zombies but lots of noises. it sounded like there were at least three or four zombies around me. I didn't get hit though so I ignored it and alked for a bit and then crouched to spy into town. All of a sudden I take a hit from an invisible zombie so I run away and stop to patch myself up. While I'm bandaging I take a hit again. I'm in the middle of nowhere so nobodys hitting me through walls, theres nobody shooting or anything, its clearly the invisible zeds hitting me. I don't care for it so log out and enter the server I was previously on. I spawn and bandage myself and almost immediately invisible zombies start screaming. I run away and after a while I meet another player. He's resently spawned and swdish(like me) so I tell him to watch out for invisible zombies chasing me. he clearly thinks I'm a loon but then gets hit and starts bleeding. I try to help him but he runs away and the invisible zombies chase after him. I run to the hospital at upper Berezino and when i get there I hear zombie sounds again but see nothing. I go to the roof and wait for a while. An invisible zombie screams and hits me so I log out. After an hour or so i log in again on the same server and no more invisible zombies.

They're invisible now.

Found a smersh backpack in a prison building at SE airfield.

This happened to me to and it sure was annoying. Relogging fixed it for me though. For the moment.

So, invisible zombies now? At first I thought it was just the sounds as before but then they started hitting me and I could only run. Then I ran into a newly spawned player and warned him about the inviible zombies. he must've thought i was mad . Then they ate his brains. Now I*m on a rooftop.

Walk Like a mother fucker

Every person wearing full miltary camo and ballistic helmets I've ever met with only one exception has always started shooting right away. So fuck those guys.
