I wanted to know when did the zombies took over Chernarus, because...there's no power in the country. Technically (at least according to a documental on history channel) it would take around 2 months for the power to completely run out without the intervention of men. And since there are no burning cars in the street, highways are not clogged with little camps and rusted vehicles, the buildings are not barricaded, there are no corpses laying around the place and it looks pretty clean overall for a zombie apocalypse I thought there should be power (at least in most areas, not all) like inside houses, on the street, the gas station, and so on. Besides other many many thing that should be around a zombie apocalypse (like burning cars and buildings, police barricades in the middle of the road, rotting corpses in the streets. etc). Here are some examples This is not a suggestion, is just some curiosity about the power system, lore and envoirement about the game :)

Let's take in consideration, that the map is pretty much the exact same one used in ArmA II, apart from some new cities and buildings. And ArmA II was a military simulator, so I guess we'll have to wait until beta or beyond

IKR, that's what "bothers" me right now...but well, I hope when it hits beta we get to see a proper country decayed by war against the undead :) I could swear I saw another in Novodmitrovsk, and I recall finding another one, can't remember right now where. Yes, those are the things that would give DayZ a proper apocaliptic feeling, but we'll have to wait until the devs start working on the envoirement :) PS: Considering optimization is done first so there are no too many FPS issues when upgrading Chernarus. I know you can refill cans in the mod, but...is it possible in the game? I've only found the Jerry Cans, but never take 'em. Anyways...it is a game, being unable to actually leave the country when resources are out or build a new society to create things (buildings, armies, gas, electricity...) making them work with unlimited fuel would be apropiate PS: Maybe they could make them full at server restart and when they run out of fuel, you should go to another city looking for one that has

I like to be able to find a decent amount of weapons, I just think there should be a better distribution considering its real use and damage (IE: Ruger 10/20 is used for sport/hunting) And also, I hope that when the game hits the Beta, we get to see a more decayed Chernarus, with burning cars and corpses as static props, maybe with power centrals working in some areas to give that "dark" feeling to a place. Kinda like the map in "No Mercy" campaing from Left 4 Dead.

I was shaking so I made a Fireplace and since I wasn't really caring about my character today and it takes longer now to warm up, I left him there prone right by the fire and went to cook something to eat. 30 minutes later I come back to this picture How can I still be cold? those were full 30 minutes!

I've found a lot on Fire Station, on FNX Magazines though. I pretty much take 'em out and use it on the M1911

Public Hives 3rd person = 1 Survivor Public Hives 1st person = 1 Survivor Private Hives 3rd = 1 Survivor (each server)

Looks like you have an invisible tent

Maybe that's what I have right now, because I'm still freezing

I understand the point. I belive that particular loot is fine (altough a bit excessive I'd think). What we need is a better distributed loot table, so AKs mags and ammo also spawn in other places (Police Stations, Supermarkets and such) Obviously with a really low chance to spawn outside the military bases, but you get the point.

I'm still freezing, but not burning. And yes, you're pretty defenseless with all that shaking...Specially if, like me, your weapon of choice is the Mosin-Nagat 91/30

Possible Solutions: - Plug in Speakers - Turn on Speakers - Turn up the volume Possible Real Solutions: - Check the general sound isn't muted - Turn off "Stereo Mix" - See if DayZ volume is up - Check the "mezclador" (that's how it's called here...might be "mixer") on your PC and see that the application (DayZ) isn't muted - Check your Steam's keybinds to see if somehow you're pressing something That's all I can think about right now. Hopefully, someone will help you out :)

carry an Izh-43 on your backpack for CQC and go to loot the base and stuff... There are two kinds of build we use. Scavenger and Tank -Scavenger: Black clothing, no armor, silenced pistol, long range rifle, big backpack -Tank: Full armor, no color requiered, magnum, machine gun, backpack does not matter PS: We still carry the Izh for close range

you sound like a bandit (balaclava), but also like a scavenger (by the colors)

When it hits the beta, although you can go into the woods and survive alone actually. But eventually gets boring (I've tried...tent, farm, game, traps). My hope is that they add so many improved zombies (like, dumb slow ones, but though as hell) in huge ammounts, where you actually need to be stealthy or tanky...that'd make them a real threat and then encourages the wild survival aspect

I think it might be a glitch. I was freezing and burning at the SAME TIME the other day. I spent 30 minutes there in the fire and still freezing to death (shaking of course)

No, not that high really, didn't knew temperature was affected by height Is it actually "in-game"? I mean, can you really get that disease? if so...should I need antibiotics? Didn't hurt me...and I was there for 30 minutes

Today I woke up to an amazing day, full of joy with the family. Had a wonderful breakfast and did a lot of things, then when I decided to play some DayZ I encountered many people, everyone were happy, saying "merry christmas" to everyone, sharing some food, ammo, gear and stuff. After a while I went on my own...trying to find some morphine and ammo. And guess what happened when I went to the second floor in the fire station? Exaclty, I got my leg broken, I had some sticks and rags, but couldn't craft a splint After I left the Fire Station in my amazing quest for a splint. I met this guy who after realizing I wasn't going to put some pellets in his face tried to help me, he couldn't craft a splint either, so he relogged (it surprised me that he didn't even hide from me to do this) SebastianCG13 was the first 12 year old kid that I've met who isn't a complete m***** ******. I gave him some ammo, netting and my vest for his help. After he succesfully managed to craft a splint after several (and I mean SEVERAL minutes) he proceeded to apply it. But guess what? :D it didn't work...so we were there for a couple more minutes until, sadly the minute after I took this picture I recieved a bullet in my head (which didn't even sound) and died. Hope the kid make it out alive. So much for a happy christmas...at least not everyone is a bandit

Yeah, but I didn't find any

Would be nice to make a fireplace like this (not so detailed obviously, but with a small stone and a hacksaw)

Do humans need food?

found one, on a dead bandit. was ruined though. I don't where he got that from...maybe he was an ex-con, that's why he handcuffed and robbed me :O

When my game crashes and then, when logging back in the same server...I'm a fresh spawn

Today, I was playing and had a pretty good run, finally I was able to enjoy fishing and tents and heli crashes and all the new things I've never been able to test in the game. Then suddenly while in my tent. The game crashed and when I came back in there was a 30 second timer and I respawned as a fresh spawn. Why? I understand and deal with it when I get killed by a player or a ladder. But why would I die for a simple crash? not even 60 seconds between the crash and the relog and I died...How can I identify when something like this is happening? (the bug + wipe) and how can I avoid this?

IDK, but I tried a regular tent and the game crashed
