Sent several emails and it received several back but to no success. Still locked in database. What in the heck is going on? Why am I not getting a solid answer or my character unlocked? I paid just like the rest of us.
Not being able to get your character out if you have to leave your house right away forcing your character to stay in place until the other players around you are gone or have killed you? Yeah no thanks. I don't server hop I actually join close to empty servers because I like the more realistic feel of less players. Still not down for having to leave and then somebody watching you walk into the brush to exit and then being able to walk right up on me and kill me because my character is still there.

Funny because I've never even thought of this and I logged out about 5 days ago and haven't been able to log back in since. I've been kicked from servers refreshing back to back but never server hopping. 5 days later still locked in database. So I don't think you have to server hop for this issue to happen lol

You guys have already unlocked me once. I don't see why you can't do it again. Honestly I've been emailing and trying to communicate with the dev team with little to no communication back. If I need to post my gamertag in here let me know. I would really love to play that game today
I'm an avid shooter in the real world and I can tell you right now standing while holding your breath with a rifle in your hand doesn't do a whole hell of a lot. Very minor stability enhancements from holding your breath. Best positions you can get in for long-range accuracy shots in real life is down on the ground with your bipod. Same goes with DayZ get your ass on the ground and get steady

Don't do it unless you really want to be pissed off. I did this and my character was still locked in the database. Later that day got an email saying my character was unlocked. What luck
My player isn't locked but I'm getting an error saying character will be locked in database in a certain amount of remaining attempts. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the game I've even tried letting it go down to zero but it just says database error. Haven't been able to join a game all day. How do I fix this?
Very new to DayZ and new to these forms. Nice to see a lot of friendly thank yous to the devs. Unlike the pubg forums that are completely filled with hate. Can anybody answer a question for me? How often do the updates come out for this game? I've only had it for a few days. Very frustrated with the guns not working I've died several times while shooting at somebody and my bullets doing nothing and then my reloading makes my gun fire and gets away my position. Unable to hear the gun firing from my perspective but teammates around me can hear it every time I hit the reload button also swarms of zombies will come if you hit reload multiple times. Hope this gets fixed. Awesome game so far I hope to see you soon great progression. Thanks Dev team
