These guys arent even playing the same game i am.

Maybe... Seriously, i've been stuck on the debug plain before. I googled and the solution was to log onto canada 2 and it worked for me. The debug plain on canada 2 is on the map. I also collected a fair amount of loot there as players would spawn in, and repawn to get out. But i don't know how to get back :(

Log onto canada 2.

I get so excited when i find a working motorcycle or atv that nothing else matters but zooming accross the map until i run out of gas. Life is too short, especially in dayz...

Are you on the featuless debug plain? Next release is supposed to fix this. Supposedly if you log into the canada 2 server you'll spawn on the map, just a couple km west of civilization.

Killing on sight is not realistic. Logically it would be the safest way for an individual to survive, but if humans as a group were predisposed to this we would have never crawled down from the trees and started walking upright. We would have killed each other off 50,000 years ago. Evolution gave us a social instict that would help us group up after the zombie appocolypse, so that we could prey on the weaker groups as bandit packs. So to make dayz more realistic we will need a team deathmatch mode. (those without a sense of humor note that sarcasm was used here)

Let me see if I get this, some where out there someone is having fun, and Ghandi is pissed that he can't ruin their day by sending them back to spawn? I get the point that it would be easier to collect loot on a server like this, but by the same logic a server with a 25 player limit is easier to collect loot on. We should all bitch on the internet to get 25 player servers banned. Most of the excitement of the game involves PvP and the risk of shhoting or not shooting first, but if a handful of noobs want to play on a friendly server I don't see an issue.

So assuming you don't want to crawl to town, whats the easiest way to get your loot back in the next life? Can you crawl behind a tree, respawn, and loot your own body in the next life, or will your body despawn over time? If you leave you stuff on the ground will it despawn?

PKing would be much easier to address with game mechanics. Stats are almost meaningless. For example, each PK makes you 10% more visable to other players. 10 kills and you actually glow :)

Zombies are a little easier to avoid, but I still have to go too slow and the game gets tedious. Shame I was enjoying it last week. The only option now is to run everywhere, find an axe and kill zombies until I break a bone and have to suicide. But thats not the game I want to play for long.
