I am not allowed on Twitch through work ( Don,t Ask ) and would never stream in a million years. I had mega loads of hassle with the game when I started with invisible Zombies and massive Lag and disappearing Loot amongst others but since the end of November I have had no issues until the other day. had five hours this morning and it was thirty pop out of sixty when I joined and thirty six when I left. Did not see one player or hear a shot found two Heli Crashes and some good stuff and killed loads of Z's all on Official server 4466 and logged out at Tisy Camp with no issues at all. I seriously have had no issues for about two months and I asked my two brothers who play a lot as well as my mate Jake and they all say the same and have had no issues. Not being up to speed yet with the way the whole experience works and what interacts with what i will continue to try to understand the whole online gaming process as I am intruiged as why some get major issues and others none.

I have been quiet for a while as I have just been enjoying my game. I use the same servers you guys do but my game has been flawless for weeks But. I was logging in the other day when I got a message from a player I do not know for some PVP as the POP was low. It turned out we were opposite ends of the Map but I said yeah we can both head towards the NWAF kinda half way between us. To cut a long story short I got there before him and killed him as he arrived. Messaged me again was that me that killed him and it was. He was annoyed and told me my game would become unplayable and right on cue I started lagging all over the shop and after about two minutes I just logged out and stayed off line for half an hour and logged back in and played fine again. He obviously did something to ruin the game play because he had died. At least that was my opinion. Is it possible, can people get into the game to mess around with it. I ask because to me the situation sure seem like he could.

Yep like night if it starts raining heavy I just log off. Thats why I am posting this now. My two main characters on two different servers its just hammering down so I find shelter and go. Not worth the hassle.

I know when servers update it can be a bit chaotic.

There are wells at Nizhnoye, Berezino lower town (two), Svetloyarsk, Solnechy, Elektro, Prigo and Balota just from memory along the coast depending on where you spawn which you can fill your stomach with and will last a long time. Kill Zombies for cans of food and drink, greenhouses in gardens have Peppers Tomatoes Potatoes as well as tins of food and drink and the gardens have loads of Apples, Pears and Plums which along with Animal/Human Kills should keep you going for as long as your character lives. I struggled early days but now its never an issue. Even Livonia I am learning quickly and it is never an issue but I admit it is harder.

Am I missing something here. I had about 30 secs of Lag right after the latest update but otherwise I have had no issues for ages and by ages I mean a couple of months. I know Dupers are pretty active and causing a lot of issues but if some body can totally explain why some have major issues and others have none. I have asked before and had some good feedback but I still don't totally understand why this happens

What servers you using as I find burlap Sacks in every other shed just about and thats on Community and Official. I have just had three hours on official 9994 original map and just under two hours on a official Livonia Server and must have seen easily twenty to thirty Burlaps.

Join and use a few different servers and play each one different. Use diffent tatics use different routes explore and use the maps to your advantage.Take risks and see where it gets you play safe there is always another day. I saw a car coming yesterday from a fair way off but the total joy I was experiencing at the time I just hid and let them pass. There is nothing like watching Z's and goats having a right set too. This was the joy I was witnessing. I cried with laughter.

The Livonia maps are terrible for fruit. Hundreds and Hundreds of Fruit Trees and never any Fruit. Also Livoia today Official servers I was agroing Zombies from half a mile away where I was in a house with bino's and I have never seen so much rain. I log out rather than get soaked for hours on end. Far easier than building a fire every 4th house to dry out.

Yep not one last night or today and I have been out in the Wilds again.

If I can not get on an official server I have a few community servers to play on chosen because they have quite often a good Pop so a good chance of some PVP. One in particular I use because some people I know use it and can quite often have thirty to fourty players. I've won a few lost a few and generally enjoyed my battles when using this server. Over Christmas though it got kinda Wolf Crazy I tend to travel from Pass Sosnovy to Myshkino via the hunting elevated stand and the power lines and enter Mysh from the South before looting and heading East to Pustoshka via known heli crash sites that should take less than an hour of game play. On 23rd December I left a heli crash site at Pass Sosnovy before arriving at Myshkino Christmas Eve still alive ( just ) and having killed 15 Wolves and eight Zombies. having bandaged eaten drank and meant my clothes I rejoined Christmas Day to find Wolves and Zombies surrounding me again and after spending hours over the next three days under siege from Wolves that kept on coming and Zombies harder than a coach load of Millwall supporters I thought the Siege of Myshkino was over when I logged in yesterday to a sunny day with no Wolves or Z's in ear shot or eyeline. My need to restock food and a plan to just leg it along the road to Pustoshka and risk nothing. Got half way before that familiar howling and within thirty seconds again eight wolves. I killed four and was still not bleeding before I was one tapped from behind. It was a totally different DayZ experience that I have to say was bloody brilliant and I have no complaints and was a totally unusal PVE experience. Any body else get these unusal adventures.

When I first came to consul i had quite a few issues with food and drink. A different approach to my game and some advice from others on here and I now quickly top up with food and drink. Study the I Zurvive Maps and you will see lots of fruit trees on the side of roads and tracks and are a great way to keep your food topped up around the map. It was only a few weeks ago I was struggling but it is now never an issue.

What time Zone are you as I am in Britain. Always happy to meet new players

Had loads of issues today on a server I had never been on before for over an hour and packed it and went back to a server I use quite often and it played spot on for the next five hours. Both community servers as no official were available but it does make me wonder as I am not the most computer savy here by a long way if online platform gaming issues are affected by internet strength, power supply and ability of equipment as well as game development. I ask because although my second server today was faultless my lad came home from school and had nothing but trouble on a game he has had six months and has also played faultless in that time. Any experts know who could enlighten me on this. is it possible.

its a game. I can do lots in a game IRL would be a big no no and vice versa.

I have had no recent issues with the game on PC or PS4 and since I have been ill i have put a lot of hours in. I know Dupers are giving major headaches in game. I have had issues lately with power supply from weather but thats affected my Sky Box PS TV and household electrics. My mic has broke on my new phones. Funny how some have issues and others do not.

Done still not showing that I have VOIP Enabled. Cheers anyway.

I've had four hours again today and had no issues of any kind. My PS 4 did go dark screen though and I could not get my controller to work but I later found we have had issues all night with the TV's PC Laptop phone and the fridge and cooker. I think its weather related as the lights keep dimming in the high winds and heavy rain we are having.

Well seven hours yesterday and I had absolutely no issues in anything I did. I again fell of a roof way up and obviously died but I was testing the limits of what is possible. On respawn I found the Z's are now more of a initial challenge until you get gear There seems to be an element of now having to push your luck more but early days and I have had no issues in my 12 hours total since update. My only current moan is armed idiots killing fresh spawns at the coast on DayZ original and crazy Russians on Livonia.

Yeah Day Z tweeted yesterday that what ever you may read it has not been released and no pricing has been issued though some say it is available. they said they will announce details prior to release. As I type my PS is updating 1 07 so something is incoming for sure.

I never even fired a shot. Stopped today to sort out my inventory when I spotted two players. I decided to follow to get a better interaction as they were flitting in and out of sight. Well two hours later their highly comical interaction with Z's had tears of laughter rolling down my face. Eventually they came to grief at the hands of a group of four but who ever these people were I thank you for countless comedy moments and a different slant on the game which I also must say has now for two weeks been flawless. No issues no lag, no invisible Z's. no blue screens. no disappearimg reappearing inventory, no nore food and drink issues. I still do not like the to dark nights but I can always change servers. Who ever you were today though on NL server 2250 Official thankyou. 👍👍👍

Totally different today. A six hour run on a different server. Killed by taking liberties with Z's twice. Fell off a roof angling a sniper shot, once from infected water and no tabs at any medical and two as New spawns from idiots while AFK with no loot. I just caught the second one but was to late to fight back but caught his name on the Mic function. Totally different experience from yesterday and thats what I love. You never know how your day will pan out.

Yeah I was up a tree yesterday to avoid a load of Z's. To top it off two guys appeared across the field and got the Z's attention and were last seen legging it over the horizon with me jumping onto the roof of a shed and off across the field in a different direction. Use trees quite often for sniping as well.

Nope I have no missing servers and I have had no issues with anything for about a week now. Not one thing in about 35 - 40 hours. 😲

Agreed
