    Can't combine items?

    You're not alone! Anything you combine (can and can openers, sewing kits and damaged items, cutting up sticks) isn't currently working in-game. I'm guessing the Devs are working on this.

    Server Help!

    Hello, I have a tiny (4 slot) rented server from Nitrado. And I'm trying my very best not to panic and run around screaming. I rented the server mainly for me and couple of friends to explore in peace and have some fun with the mods when they arrive. But...I have no idea what I'm doing. So far, I have changed the name of the server, passworded it and set the server date and time (to the 21st June at 8am, with a six-hourly restart). I must confess I was terrified fiddling with the code...I feared I may wipe the server, or do something accidently naughty and get banned from DayZ for life! Question 1: Can I muck around with spawn locations and character starting gear on a rented server? Or am I heading straight for a ban? Question 2: Is there a DayZ Servers for Dummies that holds my hand, gives me gentle and kind words of reassurance, while I interfer with the all those scary lines of code? Thank you!

    Status Report - 27 March 2018

    Thank you so much for the Status Report. It's getting so close now. The echo inside the warehouse in the video is very, very nice. I do have one quesiton - Are streamers going to get permission to stream the stress tests? Once again, thank you for all you're doing. In Beta We Trust, Support We Must!

    respawned under house

    There are two way to deal with this without the need to F11 and respawn. 1. Position yourself next to a wall and run at it. Ask the nice friendly US3 Colony server admins to kick you from the server while you're during this. When you log back in, you'll be outside the wall. 2. Repeat the first step and then pull your ethernet cable out while running. Apparently, for a few seconds, you're both on the server and aren't. And you'll be able to move through walls like a ghost. Good luck.

    DayZ Trash Talker Compilation

    You are a Master of Stick-Fu, and I salute you.
  6. I'm calm. This wasn't my reaction when I read this post at all. Absolutely not. I'm totally in control...In fact, I'm icy.

    Good question. I always get excited at changes to the map, whether its the Western Expansion, New Cherno, Tisy, new buildings like the radio station at Altar and the redesign of villages like Myskino. But the tourist trails are a little more than 'Cool, new stuff!'. It will mean a whole new way to travel around the map. Rather than taking the routes I've run so many, many times, I'll be able to see 'another' Chernarus, and it will feel to me like the 'Secret Chernarus', the hidden roads that cross woods and fields. So, I get excited and am keen to see the trails that Adam and the team have made for us. Sorry.

    Would steam issue me a refund?

    I don't think Steams refund policy has anything to do with Bohemia Interactive. On the DayZ store page there is a very clear warning...and I quote... "THIS GAME IS EARLY ACCESS ALPHA. PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO ACTIVELY SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF THE GAME AND ARE PREPARED TO HANDLE WITH SERIOUS ISSUES AND POSSIBLE INTERRUPTIONS OF GAME" Additionally, you purchased the game over a year ago and have 64 hours in game and as such you exceed the criteria of published Steam refund policy. Just uninstall and forget you ever bought it.

    I'm sorry, I'm about to do a Veruca Salt. I want to walk the tourist trails! With a backpack, a camping stove, and the grass for my pillow! And I want it NOW! Sorry... Normal adult behaviour will resume shortly... Keep going, you beautiful people, we're almost there. It's so close now, that I can hear 0.63 is whispering. IN BETA WE TRUST!

    Multiple Characters on specific servers..?

    Playing this morning, I joined off an friend on what he told me was a Public Unofficial. We looted up for a little while till the server restarted. We have a little tradition of taking alternative turns selecting a server (I live in the UK, he in the US...for the ping, baby!) when we experience a restart. I chose a UK Official server and arrived as a fresh spawn north of Rify which was definitely not where I was on the previous server. I put the disrepancy down to him accidently selecting a Private server despite him swearing it was a Public. But having read your post, I might owe him an apology. Have the Official and Unofficial servers had a divorce? Are they no longer on speaking terms?

    Exp Update 0.62.139796

    Is the night sky static? And will the night sky change according to the month or season? For example, will we be able to see Orion from November to February? If it's static, could you tell me the date of the night sky you use? Thank you.

    You found an orange?!?!? I'm so jealous. I want an orange, dammit! Apples, bananas, peaches and now oranges - looks like fruit salad is back on the menu, boys!

    Exp Update 0.62.139507

    I finally made it to the new dam, west of Zeleno! Mainly because I found a sedan on the east coast and had a rather terrifying journey along the coast road. Look! The Dam! Sorry it's so dark. Now, the real story. The sedan. Well, it's very nice being gifted a completely lovely sedan so one mustn't grumble too much. However, the frame rate drop was epic. Especially in Electro...dare I say it...I got 4 fps...only briefly mind. But 40 kmh with a frame rate of 4 is rather nerve-wrecking. It didn't help that my companion cheered when we left Electro unscathed. No great praise for my awesome driving skills, just a slightly sarcastic cheer. The swine! I'm loving 0.62 - thank you, you brilliant people.

    The trees! The New Castle! The Sounds! It's simply glorious! Apart from the whole grey face thing which is very aging.

    Basebuilding....why?

    There will always be wanderers, who need nothing but the grass for a pillow. There will always be those who need a little bolt hole, somewhere to call home. And there will always be those who want to build a gleaming city on the hill, for they drive towards civilisation. And of course, there are always those who seek to tear it all down.

    Simple question about tent.

    You've been raided and emerged on the other side relatively intact. It isn't unknown for players to remove everything, casting it to the floor, packing the tent and leaving it to despawn. And as you've still got a tent with items inside, I'd say you were lucky. Nice of them to leave you some apples. A poor trade, but it could have been a lot worse. May I suggest you move? Find a new location to set up home?

    To less tins (food) in game

    A few days ago, I ran at the Dean Hall zombie screaming 'Give me your kiwi, you bastard.' Which, I must confess, is a sentence I never thought I would utter. DayZ, opening whole new worlds of possibilities.

    Dont wanna make new thread?Use this!

    Rainbows Question: Are there rainbows or (as mostly likely, I have the 'I like FPS' setting on) is it me? I've just been wandering around a rather wet, soggy and depressing Novo. I climbed to the top of the town hall and saw the sun through the rain. Ah-ha! I turned around to see the rainbow and was rather disheartened not to see one. I want rainbows... ...and unicorns would be nice too.

    Newbie Questions

    You need to look inside the clothes. There you'll find tins, sometimes ammo, and the odd useful item. The Infected also have tinned food on them occassionally. The Dean Hall Infected always has a kiwi on him (because he's from New Zealand...) The other 'free' food is the apple. Otherwise, you're hunting and fishing (chickens are everywhere and will provide two chicken breasts, feathers, guts and two bones). Bones can be crafted into a spear, bone arrows and fish hooks. Wolves have good eating on them, if you survive of course. Regarding horticulture - pumpkins are your perfect orange friends. If anything, there's still too much 'free' food available. But that's just a personal opinion.
