1) running for your life, not really once you get used to the game there is not a lot that will happen - running through forests yes 90% of the time if your actually trying the survival thingy. 2) use the forum, ingame is possible voicechat/direct but its not really a save method (neither are the forums but its better at finding actual friendlies). And to find each other you have to start learning the game so you know where you are (shows up on the bottom right 2nd line when you load in) and how to get from there to another. I'd suggest using an external map in the overlay/2nd monitor like http://dayzdb.com/map. 3) right click flashlight to add it to pistol slot (has to be empty, if you have a pistol put that in your backpack (make sure you have 5 free slots, or it will spit it out and you probably wont get it back)) Knife is for gutting animals only (cooking): You need to kill an animal Then gut it using the KNIFE grab the meat of the body You need an HATCHET to get wood from a forrest (stand next to a tree right click it in your inventory and select harvest wood) for a fire (This can be used as melee weapon) And you need MATCHES to light the fire (right click on them in inventory -> create fireplace) then you can lit it and cook using the scroll menu. Killing yourself no - look around for a building (run in straight lines (so you dont run in circles), follow roads (since they will almost always end up in civilisation or the end of the map, but then just go the other way)), almost all of them will spawn zombies that will gladly eat you.

Poll: Should Barbed wire be removed?
decapitator replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No barbed wire and all is fine, they just need to sort out that once its removed with a toolbox it doesn't load back in on server restart - because that shit is just stacking like a motherfucker on all the servers. -
http://dayzdb.com/map to see spawn locations, but I think most of the time you have more chance of finding something just running a straight line north through the west forests and then at the end run east. And straight line is not really what I mean just jiggle a bit left and right through the forest bits.

Apparently someone setting up bait and using a satchel - or atleast thats what it kinda looks like. Grenades go bang, satchels go boom.

Poll: Would you like a full database wipe
decapitator replied to shnoogy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Id fancy to have a setup like Diablo II (and probably many other RPG's but thats the only one I realy played) with a ladder, one that resets everything every few months and moves the items/ players to non ladder if they like to move there with their items. -
WHATS A CD KEY AND DO U NEED THAT TO GROUP UP ??
decapitator replied to HADESWRATH's topic in New Player Discussion
Not PC savvy. that's an understatement you don't even know where the caps-lock button is. -
Or the other way around, going prone and taking a dive.

Hacker teleported entire server into the water
decapitator replied to andrestander (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
That's hackers for ya nothing you can do besides trying to relog and hope it puts you on the coast. Otherwise you'll probably be swimming till you are dieing of thirst(how ironic) and hunger. -
Play. The. Game.

A way to fix glitched backpacks on the ground.
decapitator replied to Muncywolverine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Its.. well common for anyone that had to solve it before, its not realy hard to figure out tbh. Same with medical boxes in the hospital btw it often spawns with just a few items below it, pick it up and then access the box with all the items in it. -
Some do, some don't or atleast did (afaik) you'll notice soon enough when battle eye boots you trying to connect.
-
It is hacked yes, will you get in trouble - doubt it. Its not really possible to see who's in the car just who ran the script to spawn it but still its not a legit thingy.
-
Logout and back in you will spawn on the coast, but will save your gear - its the wilderness spawn/ debug area. Its where people load in once they join the game before they get put at their right location on the map.

For you helicopter hunters, managed to get 3 crash sites into one screenshot - figured I'd edit it as a wallpaper for me. edit: how the f* do I get the image to load here instead of the link

Add in a safe zone where weapons are holstered
decapitator replied to funnyjunk255's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
This would be the best place to camp, with guns, just outside. Good plan! -
Inspiring people to server hop, awesome have more beans, no really!
-
No dogs or fighting just a few bullets flying his way, this is boring.
-
Mhh fun, your maps seem to stay quite neat after all that adventuring tho ;-)

Dead, military zombie, corpses, and they are avoidable - sort of. -
Game sounds much louder than in game chat, struggle to hear anyone!
decapitator replied to Mxgaza33's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Check audio options bottom two are for voice (I think bottom one your miq, the one above all the others) just put the rest lower and up that. . -
Is it just me or... ?(cow's weakness)
decapitator replied to Batwingvagflaps's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You try taking a bullet up the ass, personaly id drop dead tbh.. -
To far to know, nothing was said about it to much - it might be Rocket's ultimate goal, but its not his goal for now and at least a good few months to come since hes still trying to sort this out.

no save option on ural?
decapitator replied to arthur1265 (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
And its there somewhere - just walk away for a bit and walk back if nothing comes up and repeat till it does. -
Drop pack - wear clothing - grab pack (drop your duped one if it happens to do it).

Doubtful we will get since Rocket was planning going under the ground. Would still be handy for vehicles. Also mentioned a ton of times before.
