Hey just out of curiosity, what is your mouse issue? Now that I think of it, mine has been disconnecting and reconnecting intermittently, seemingly after switching over to 10.

If you lose all your firefights, it is more than just desync that is your problem. Desync IS a problem, but it is equal in screwing us over. You should be winning firefights with or without that issue. You may very well be horrible at first person shooters.

I came across a server the other night that had so much loot my client would crash after being near a large pile of it for too long.

AKM with PSO-1.

In my opinion the entirety of the map has been made with nerfing sniping in mind.

The flashes are too long in the third pic, but seem fine in the second pick with the chick firing.

I stole mine.

Sounds like the server crashed, and you unfortunately lost your character by joining the server as it was restarting (known bug). This might have happened again in the second server. The way I figure out if the server has crashed is by right-clicking an item in my inventory. If it gets stuck saying it is receiving for more than a few seconds the server has crashed. It can be annoying... As for losing your character, learn to avoid joining a server right as it is restarting. I think it will say 08:00hrs during this time.

I'd like that in my medieval zombie apocalypse, but not so much in my modern zombie apocalypse. Would be great though to only have access to 15th century weaponry, but that isn't this game.

You have so much insight I think you must be a dev or talking out of another hole.

Actually I think it was a bug I was seeing. Also noticed zombies were only in one experimental server last night. Didn't see any animals to hunt. Tried going fishing but couldn't get all the necessary items.

You have disparaged me in the past because I love the PvP in this game. You didn't take the time to do anything other than jump on your high horse and tell me to go play a different game. If anyone needs to lurk more I think its you.

This happened to me. I got sick from drinking bad water. Took antibiotics. Sickness cleared. The thirst from the sickness remained, draining my hydration extremely fast. I eventually had to suicide and scramble back to my corpse to continue on my journey. Definitely a bug in my case.

It is more about them catching you slipping now. Before it was either outrun them, or kill them on the spot. Now you can go around looting with them still coming at you, you just have to be careful not to get yourself in a corner, or you will be tore up. Really, I like slow shambling groups of zombies more. They just need to add a few quicker ones to the mix, so that the quicker ones can buy time for the slow ones to overwhelm you.

What is an ego-shooter? Antibiotics work, take them when you get sick. Engine not made for PvP? Isn't this the Arma 2 engine? What do you do in Arma? I don't know about anyone else, but when I get fully-geared, I go looking for other fully-geared players to interact with. All I can tell you is I have a hell of a lot of fun playing this game, even when features are broken. People try to tell me that if I want to PvP I am playing the wrong game. They tell me to go play CoD, BF, or Arma. Well, I played all those games, and it isn't the same. I like the PvP in DayZ more than any of those other FPS games. I have more to lose in this game, and it makes death, and kills, far more satisfying than anything else I have ever played. As far as zombies go, the recent 666 exp was BY FAR the best implementation of zombies so far in this game, in my opinion. I really enjoyed it. It felt like Night of the Living Dead. I also run around crafting, hunting, cooking meats, making leather clothes, I enjoy ALL of that. All that though, that is just filler for the real meat and potatoes in this game; PvP. At least to me. You are going to have to deal with that. I'm not going anywhere, and theres no way that the PvP is going to get worse, it'll only get better. I'm not going anywhere, and neither are the people who think like I do.
