Dreossk, if you are trying to break the glass at the hospital, you need to at least crouch. I've found that swinging an axe while laying down somehow manages to hit you instead of the glass.

As Vaquxine said, that is the Hospital. There are 3 of them in the game, and are the best source of medical supplies, as they will always have something to grab. He/she/they are also correct in that to get INTO the hospital, you approach from ground level and break the glass (which in your case, was probably already broken). A suggestion to stop you from diving off of roofs, don't try to prone while moving, as it makes you dive forward. I'm not sure if this is exactly what you were doing, but most roofs can't be hopped off of without vaulting or diving prone (both of which I've done).

How do you know it is 100% exploiting versus people getting incredibly lucky? Had 1 day where I found 3 choppers, all of which had 5.56 ammo (30x STANAG SD) and some other assorted weapons. Now, if they have 15x NVG, ya, that's fishy, but large stockpiles of ammo doesn't automatically mean duping. That, and why bother locking the server? Just take down the base legitimately since you obviously know where it is.

Eulogy by Tool. He had a lot to say, he had a lot of nothing to say. :D

njp, I don't see why you couldn't, since CO is just ARMA 2 + OA in a bundle.

Mike, Zombies coming through doors is a bug, not an intentional thing (though I bet this is more of an ARMA bug than a Day Z bug). I bet Rocket would love to be able to have zombies break the door down rather than ignore it, lol.

For me it's been bugs (falling through floors, spawning in debug forest and being unable to escape it, zombies swatting me through walls and 1-shotting me from 12k to -5k [this has happened twice to me in the cherno grocery store], etc...), followed by players (our group tends to aggressively assault bandits rather than avoiding them, tending to lead to some long run backs to our gear), followed by non-bugged zombie deaths (which I'd say hover around 3 since I started about 1.5 weeks ago). Most frustrating deaths tend to be when I'm vaulting over a fence on flat terrain or walking past a tree, and the terrain decides to reach out and give me a hug after I've finally gotten myself decently kitted out. Losing an Alice Pack stocked up on blood, morphine and other supplies, not due to carelessness or a player who shoots faster than I do, but due to Mother Nature, sucks the worst, lol.

What cptbradley said... but think about what they found to dump a loaded FN FAL, lol.

They're not buying a second copy of the game, they're just changing the registry key that controls your profile to use a different account and thus a different character. Wish there were a way to have a diff char for a diff ARMA profile though, I mostly play with a few friends and run in a group, however there are times when one isn't available and we don't want to leave them in a random tree in BFE, so we either can't stray far or we can't play.

It's a blatant abuse of an exploit that allows people to ruin the enjoyment of the game for others, which also sometimes allows people to avoid death entirely and respawn with all of their gear right where they "died". Had this same !(%# happen yesterday twice within 45 minutes near the Balota Airstrip when we went to pick up two group members after one was killed by a bug and another joined the server fresh. Was on the edge of throwing my keyboard through my window on the first one, because half our group got killed by the bandit squad we caught in the open, due to two of them alt-f4ing as they died and then respawning and nailing us because we figured that they were actually dead.

1. Rindragon, you can sprint into a city, however it really kind of breaks the feel of the game when you do that. Your best bet to find a weapon is actually to hit up deer blinds (find a map that you like and once you've determined your location on spawn [hint, the location displays briefly when you first login to your character], make your way to deer blinds). Had a 14 hour life ended by a bug yesterday that started with hitting up a deer blind and finding a rifle+ammo. This also tends to be infinitely more safe, as you only have to dodge 2-3 zombies per blind, rather than potentially 40 in a city. 2. You're pretty much spot on between your description and Freon's. A tent can be setup as a base of sorts, but if you don't hide it well, people will find it and loot it (and even if you hide it well, they may stumble onto it). It does allow you to store supplies in case you get caught and killed by a player or zombie, and is supposed to give you 48 hours to get back to it before it despawns, however there are currently bugs with it apparently despawning too quickly or it eating your items. 3. I personally like the spawns near the cities now that I'm becoming more familiar with dodging zombies (and their quirks) as well as where to go for loot. If I die (and can't get to where my team is guarding my corpse quick enough) and spawn near a town, I will go hit the grocery store and a few apartments in order to hopefully get some loot to make the trip safer. If I die, I lose nothing; if I find a pistol, a bag, some food/water, and medical supplies, well, it's that much easier to make it halfway across the map without starving or becoming carrion. 4. This one I can be guilty of myself, just because of what Freon said. I've been caught basically with my pants down because I didn't shoot someone in a room with me that dragged in some zombies (which appeared to be an accident at the time). We killed all of the zombies, I said good job and proceeded to eat a bullet. If I can tell you are unarmed, I'll more than likely let you pass (in fact this happened yesterday to a guy with an alice pack, but no weapons [side note: poor bastard got shot 5 minutes later]). It's a Pavlovian response at this point, shoot first, ask questions later, because if you ask first, you'll probably not like the taste of the answer.

Default differences are here, however there's no guarantee that it matches up with the defaults. http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=18203

It's because the m1014 (as far as I can tell) is bugged. Got hit by that the other day on one of my first successful lives and ended up dying with 5 mags of various m1014 ammo that I couldn't load.
