Hitback

yeah sooo, interesting problem I am stuck on a stone overlooking a cliff, can't move at all apart from crouching and standing, anyone else had this problem and if so could they fix it? I am reasonably well geared and don't really want to lose my gear.

Okay the game is completely up to date but it will sometimes take 10+ minutes to get into a near empty server, quite frustrating, have a decent machine to i5 2500k etc etc. Any ideas? Oh another thing, sometimes I will get endless loading screen.

As title states I am unable to play Dayz due to artifacts. Everything becomes obscured depending on view angle meaning that I am either zombie bait or an easy PK. Any fix coming on this? Have only noticed this happening with the last couple of patches. Can't determine whether its Arma or Dayz related but its annoying as hell.

Hi I found a bike recently but its really slow, (max speed 23) is somethign wrong with it?

perhaps, they dont look broken, what do I need to fix it?

I have come across bikes in Dayz previuously that were much faster, and much quicker to accelerate also.

As title states cannot update battle eye, (like it even works anyway). It won't update automatically once in game and cannot update it manually either, what gives?

Nope, just says it cannot update, as though it times out or something.

thanks for the help people :D

Thanks Ander, I ran this it got to 75% and then said Wrong CD key.... then it said successfully installed?

yes they do, I see them roam around all over the place.

As title asks, I havent found a helo crash site in day(z). Are they still in game?

hi atm I am stuck on a stone overlooking a cliff, is there some way I can get out of this predicament? I am reasonably well geared and dont want to have to respawn.

I can't prone for some reason, can only crouch and stand

The best post in this thread so far.

hrmm about this latest patch, have noticed that there are a large amount of stationary zombies who are COMPLETELY unaware of survivors, managed to crouchwalk right behind a couple and hatchet them to death, although one was facing away from me, didnt appear to move or strike me yet still got me bleeding?

Not a moan, merely pointing out some issues i have found thus far. I have to revise my earlier thoughts about this patch, zombies are now just too aware, while crawling indoors previously unaware zombies are picking up on my presence. 1.7.5 zombies were too easy to avoid but now they seem to be amped up too much in terms of ability to sense out new players. I am not suggesting a complete rollback, just a minor reduction in zombie awareness. Zombie awareness does seem to be a little buggy atm. I have crept past and even run past some zombies and they haven't even registered my presence, (and i wasnt desynched or w/e) Weird right? Also being hit once by a zombie and getting a broken leg straight away while at full hp is ludicrous. Otherwise the game is all good in my opinion, Oh and one more thing, the pathing abilities of zombies are also messed up atm, (maybe they always were) For instance while in the supermarket zombies will walk right through the counter instead of going around.

I am curious if the following could be somehow implemented: If friends/ other players who have been killed by zombies could be turned into zombies which could then attack you/other players. It would add to the atmosphere but I have no idea how it could be implemented, what do you other fine people think of this idea?

So.. I spawned at airstrip and promptly found a m14, and came across a guy who after talking to me in comms axed me to death, but thats not the interesting part.. I respawned at Otmel and immediately became aware of a glowing flame lie graphic on my screen and right in front of me was a Huey crashed on to the ground with a dead and highly geared player on the ground, you name it he had it, NVG's AS50, map compass, gps, rangefinder etc. Soooo I grabbed everything and went inland but when I turned around the whole horizon was filled with the flame graphic that was on the helo crash. Only way I could get rid of it was to switch servers, (no it wasn't an alt f4 escape, no-one was around, I checked). So i respawned on another server, no more graphical glitch but now I have early onset of stress becauseof my gear and also, I have an empty feeling because I have nothing more gear-wise to strive for.....

A little positivity people.. I have to say that in light of the present DDOS attack I am reminded of how great a game DayZ actually is. Like many of you I am a longtime PC gamer and have played many many games online etc. Aside from Planetside 1 which has been my favourite game I would have to say that DayZ is an easy second on my all time favourite games list. Sure it is still in Alpha and has a few issues but try to keep it in perspective. It is the intense feelings that I get while playing this game that keeps me coming back, even despite those issues. And this game isn't really about the loot, although it is nice sneaking around with a Ghillie suit and an AK. It is about searching for loot and surviving while you do so. This is a fantastic game, a heady mix of suspense and survivalism, with a significant dose of zombiecide and pvp mixed in. Fantastic, loving it so far. Kudos to the Dev team for this one.

Hi there I know posts on this topic have been posted before but its a persistent problem even in spite of following the suggestions. Everything is updated to the latest version but 90% of the DayZ servers that I join I am immediately kicked back to server screen I run Dayz through Steam if that helps. This on top of all the other issues I am experiencing is starting to takethe shine off of what is a great game, even though it is in Alpha.

yes did it via six updater
