YES. Since melee weapons are quite common, its easy enough to get a foothold early on.

Don't like this. Using landmarks to pinpoint each others location and then trying to meet up is all people need imo.

I second that. After playing with a buddy for some hours, a zombie which has been hacked on for about 5 times turned around, slapped me in the face and my leg broke. Thanks DayZ. Similar stuff happened to me when I was prowling alone as well. This is something that needs a fix similar to this: - Remove the breaking leg thing entirely until it is fixed. - Realize the very good suggestion to combine wood with bandages to make a splinter and such create an easier to obtain medication for the broken legs. - The cases in which broken legs appear still need to be tweaked. I can see that a zombie trampling on my prone ass might break my legs. But I don't see a chance for a rotting carcass to break my legs when I am standing or crouching in front of it. Let the broken legs chance as it is against prone characters and remove the chance of breaking your legs infight for the other two stances completely imo. ps: just saw that this is my first posting. Hi there, DayZ community!
