not impressed so far... actually quite disappointed

well so far I have been killed and respawned with all my stuff, had massive lags, was killed by someone using the invisible bug and then I heard that my rarest find an L85 was just ninjapatch deleted.... not to mention that there is no way of knowing if any of our tents still exist because of the infite loading screen yes ofc, alpha.......

You wont get banned for taking hacked stuff, but if you want to play legit blow that thing to pieces.... The KSVK ammo and the orange ural dont exist in DayZ... so yeah it's probably all hacked

Ah I see, didnt watch that video at first. I wonder why he isn't banned yet... f*ucking hackers.

wait... who's hacking?

PvP Server: As they are now PvE Server: NPC Bandits, a lot more infected, lowered spawnrates for simple weapons, even lower spawnrates for military grade loot... you "could" still find a .50 cal sniper on this kind of server, it's just very unlikely You want the good weapons and want the thread of real Player opponents? You have to play PvP... but if you want to play with your friends RPG style you can play PvE which will still be a challenge due to more infected and NPC bandits I think this would actually work... or just plain and simple seperate PvP characters from PvE characters...

remember everytime someone respawns it shows as "player was killed" and is probably tracked as PVE death... so these statistical numbers are pretty much moot by my _personal_ estimation its pretty much 50/50 in the beginning and the chance of death by another player rises every day you stay alive

happened to me once... joined a normal server and was asked to chose a gender, knowing that this would create a new character I aborted and switched to another server where I spawned in my old location with all my gear.

I found two m107s in the barracks once ^^ while i was stashing the second one in my backpack a server hopper logged in infront of me... he a DMR and lots of other stuff on him man sometimes I wish I had a shopping cart lol

1. I make my way to stary sobor at night. I observe the tents for a good 2-3 minutes but dont see any movement (I was close enough to spawn zombies so I couldnt use that as an indicator for player activity)... when I sneak in: the first tent I look inside has a player in it and I get shot immediately 2. again I head north, and reach NWA from the north side... found a ghillie suit and a FNFAL ANPV on the way, it's night.... i carefully check the treelines and my surroundings for other players without seeing anything As I crawl-approach the barracks (reminder: at night, with ghilie suit, in grass/using trees and bushes as cover, with night vision) I check the treelines again and any spots that could be used as elevated sniping positions without the slightest sign of other players being here. Then I get shot from behind.... 1 hit = dead, didnt hear a thing... ah well 3. Made my way to NWA, didnt die, great. I'm in the barracks, I try to be fast... ofc I checked the airfield for player acitivity there were no zombies anywhere on the airfield when I approached the barracks. I find a m107 and it takes a few seconds to pack it... then I get shot through the window, didnt hear or see anything. 4. I keep away from cities and NWAirfield, and I get lucky and find a few heli crahes... I'm playing very cautious since I dont want to lose my m107+ DMR+... I travel from novy sobor to berezino without seeing a single player. I observe the city from a distance for around 5 minutes until I'm sure there is nobody around, then I go in to look for a tent to store my stuff... As I enter the appartements I get shot in the back with a lee enfield and die immediately so what do I do? I feel like everybody else is playing with invisibility cheat and I'm the only one running around in a pink bunny suit... the fck is going on? I really dont care about the stuff I lose anymore... I've lost ghillie suits, heli loot, vehicles .... but what really bothers me is that I never see it coming and have no chance of fighting back. which sucks. a lot. TL;DR: every time I die it's due to another player who I didnt see or hear and I get mostly one-shot without the slightest chance of fighting back. wat do?

thanks for the answers, yes I'd like to play in a squad but due to time limitations at the moment it's not an option... I'd love to be the hunter from time to time too, but even when I'm on a server with 50 players I never see anyone inland, only at the coast ... and killing new players for a can of beans really isnt my style. I like a challenge but as it is now it's beyond being a challenge but rather impossible to survive such an encounter. I'll try to observe the area more closely and over a longer period of time, and I'll try to setup a basic camp before I head to the good and risky loot locations and maybe I'll even try camping for stuffed players ^^ thx core
