Longs

The long bridge on Namalsk springs to mind here. Been killed a few times trying to cross it in vehicles or on foot.

I'd like to see players limited to a slow jog or walk after running flat out for a few minutes. That way you wouldn't be able to out run zombies in open ground, you could get a head of them but as you tire and slow down they'll catch you up.

What I do is I go back to playing stable although that's boring at the moment because there's nothing to do in stable, I've exhausted all the available content. Giving Dayz a break for a few months and playing something else works wonders.

Okay I did a search and all that came up was people posting up that this is a bug or complaining about it. At the moment on rare occasions I've encountered invisible zombies, I know this is a bug because I can't see them just hear them hitting me yet my friends are able to see them. I know it's not very realistic but it adds a twist to the regular predictable boring zombies, Namalsk used to have those invisible Bloodsucker things and they were pretty cool. I dunno I really like the realism aspect of DayZ and invisible zombies probably aren't every ones cup of tea. Just thought I'd suggest something that's already in the game as a bug could be added to the final release.

I agree it leaves a lot to chance I was just throwing it out there as an idea because essentially it's in the game at the moment as a bug and with the regular zombies being so easy to take on this adds a little bit of a challenge.

I like this server especially as it's hardcore. Would be nice to meet up with a group in game because running solo gets boring after a while :( Server seems to be very bandit orientated as well. I've met about 15-20 people so far and all have been hostile either straight away or after pretending to be friendly :(

I like this idea but I think it needs to wait until the game is finished. At the moment I feel making it too hard to find food will scare people away to other games

I can't get on for any length of time and connection issues when we are on make it unplayable. Me and some friends tried for about an hour yesterday afternoon before we gave up and decided to play something else :(

lol @ porn audio at the start

Dude this game on Xbox live..... I can already hear the screaming prepubescent teens. I've got three Xbox 360s in my house two of them in the kids rooms, both of them in their teens and all I can hear when they're playing CoD or FIFA is raging and screaming. it's like they turn into something else when playing on the damn things. Nice as pie they are and well behaved until they get on their Xboxes. My Xbox on the other hand only really gets used to stream stuff off the home server for the TV in the lounge using Windows Media Player. Probably the best feature of the XBox 360 imo.

Why so mad bro? None is insecure about a console port. People just don't want time, effort and resources taken away from the pc game to develop a cut down poor rendition of a quality idea just to try and make some easy $$$ off of the console kiddies. That mentality is what has ruined the Battlefield series.

I died yesterday and now I'm constantly stuck with either "you are unconscious", "please wait" and "you are dead". I did managed to respawn very briefly after I was killed but only for about 10 seconds then the server restarted, thing is normally I get rolled back a couple of minutes on a server restart so I guess I've been rolled back to when I was shot and now I'm stuck in that state. I've tried clicking respawn again and leaving the game on "you are unconscious" for about 1 hour and nothing happened. I guess I need a character reset or something, doesn't anyone know how to go about this?

bump anyone have any suggestions?

I'd be happy if I could spawn at all, I'm stuck with "you are dead" respawn "you are dead" respawn "please wait....you are dead"

People will always kill on sight tho. It's just too much fun for some people to know that they've ruined someone's day by killing their character that they've spent the last 6 hours perfecting. Handcuffs and force feeding have just added a new dynamic to their amusement.

Turn your Gamma and brightness up to max and put your HDR quality as high as it will go and you'll brighten the game up a lot. It'll be black and white but it will help you out a lot.

well done

Just wondering what I'm doing wrong or if I've found a bug. I was able to load five rounds into the Mosin so that after each shot my character would automatically load the next round, today though I can only chamber one round at a time and every time I fire I need to press Tab and drag another round over to the gun. All that's changed is that I've spray painted the rifle and put a better condition scope on it.

Thanks for the quick replies at least I know what's caused it now :)

Has anyone had any significant experience spray painting the Mosin since the recent patch? I've managed to find 2 variations so far and was wondering if anyone else has tried any different combinations. So far I've tried: 25% Green = Green Mosin 25% Green + 25% Black = Cammo pattern Mosin When I die next I plan to try some different variations to see what I can find, so far tho I really like the concept. I have encountered a minor bug though that has only happened to me and not my friends, when spray painting the Mosin it would leave my inventory and reappear about 20 metres to my left in the air. Also if I log out with a full or part full spray paint can in my inventory it's empty when I log back in.

Awesome thanks for the reply, I never knew you could spray paint crash helmets!

Oh I understand the purpose behind your post, I just think it's pointless and serves nothing hence my original reply.

If you're camping Balota then your nothing but a douchbag that gets cheap lulz from shooting fresh spawns so running in or out of a tree makes no difference lol. Shooting fresh spawns is a crime in the eyes of most people never mind "The Bane of Balota". People shooting fresh spawns probably drive just as many people away from the game as the bugs, glitches, cheaters etc etc Seriously none server hops Balota, it must be THE most visited place in the game atm meaning low chance of good loot unless there's just been a restart. Anyone that spawns on the south coast west of Cherno will go there for a look because even though it's so dangerous a fresh spawn has nothing to lose. However you stand a reasonable chance to get some clothes and a bag at least when going there.

This has happened to me a couple of times since the game launched. Annoying but starting fresh lets me try new things out.

This is why I camp the airfield in a bush sometimes and blow peoples heads off with my Mosin when I see them log in. There's no reason for someone to log out in as dangerous a place the barracks on the airfield or next to the ATC tower. Normal people log out in the trees, server hoppers log out on top of where they want to loot because they're lazy.
