Your character is in shock. Whenever you log off while in shock, you will immediately go unconscious upon logging in. If you disconnect while unconscious but still in shock, you will still be unconscious logging back in. Shock is caused by being shot, being hit by zombies, or even having bullets pass CLOSE to you, and it takes awhile to go away. I believe it was one of the methods attempted to combat alt-f4ers, since most people who would disconnect in combat, would be in shock, and would immediately go unconscious upon logging in.

You can also destroy buildings by throwing a couple of smoke grenades at them. Regular grenades also work, and of course, exploding cars, helicopters, rocket launchers...

Thank you. Especially to the barbed wire part. Too many assholes set them up JUST for the graphical glitches

Balance maybe? But then again, we have an L85 that can see through walls and grass, so I dunno. Maybe a gun with NV is too overpowered? <_<

I don't get it. I don't have any problems climbing Green Mountain.

No, you just started on a MOD. You bought a game y'know. Arma II. Arma II actually has gameplay and can be played WITHOUT DayZ. Scary thought, I know. I mean fuck, if people would just spend 30 minutes and go through all the fucking TUTORIALS in Arma II, they would learn EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO KNOW FOR DAYZ.

I got shuttled around by a helicopter earlier this morning. By the same guy I had shot and killed earlier. I had respawned in Cherno, and immediately started looting the town, when I hear a chopper. It lands outside the Cherno supermarket, and I hop in just before about 30 zombies descend on us. I couldn't believe my ears when this guy said he was the one I had killed earlier. He landed outside Elektro, gave me my M249, NVG, Rangefinder and tools, then offered to fly me somewhere. I couldn't have been more apologetic about my shooting him. I had JUST gotten an M249 and NVG for the first time ever, spawned in, and saw 3 dudes decked out with a Mk48, L85 and a Sniper Rifle, and had gotten too spooked about losing my stuff...

Doesn't seem like this was a situation where he could've helped the group out. Quitting here I think was ok. He was probably hidden behind a hill or bushes and wasn't bleeding out. I support disconnecting in a situation like this. What I don't support is one of his group members joining a different server to get a better sniping spot. That shits messed up

I just got my first top tier loot today. Someone started shooting at me with an M249, telling me to drop all my loot. I said no. With my M4. Got an M249 with one belt, Coyote Backpack, GPS, Silenced M9, Rangefinder and NVG. Now, I'm moving into the woods and never seeing the light of day. The last time I got NVG's and a GPS, I had killed a hacker and stole his truck full of hacked loot. I then got a bullet instantly planted in my head every time I respawned on that server.

Yup, had that happen... Basically, swim to shore. I grabbed a pair of nail clippers, wedged them to my "W" key and just watched some TV for 10 minutes or so... now that suiciding is disabled, hackers have been teleporting people a lot more often now instead of just killing them.

Quite a few, myself still included The picture is just too dark to 100% identify it as being real life instead of a game. Shit... that makes me realize just how far video games have come since I started playing them on the Commodore 64...

I would like this game to remain the way it is, in it's open endedness. But I would like to see some form of... extra content that encourages survivors or bandits to team up. Maybe where survivors could work to restoring the power grid for major cities/towns so you'd get some form of light at nights, and bandits would work against that. Or, where you have to band with other survivors to fight off massive invasions of zombies Or, maybe even the military steps in to try and eradicate all players/zombies in the country, and you have to fight them off, with the reward being military loot (maybe common military loot like M16's, AKM's, etc) There has to be some form of incentive to keep you playing past a certain time. The game is still fun to me, and a lot of people here. But what about in another 6 months? A year? 2 years? (Assuming of course everyone doesn't move to DayZ on Arma 3 by then)

Welp, after trying to change some options tonight, and accidentally clicking respawn (which is right below options), it suddenly occurred to me how the Respawn option might need a confirmation box that pops up, asking you if you really want to suicide before it happens I highly doubt that this happens often... but after losing half a days worth of work due to a mis-click, something like this seems worthwhile to look into

Well, after 3 months of solo play, I think I've finally gotten bored playing by myself. So, I figure it's finally time to group up with some people! But, with all the clans/groups/squads out there, I'm not really sure who to join, even after reading through some of the threads here. I'm a fairly decent player with a mic and the ability to communicate. I'm mainly just looking for a group that goes around having fun. Not killing random people or anything like that, but just people that are fun to be around and kill zombies with! If anyone is recruiting, please post here and be sure to mention what you guys do and stuff!

Haha thanks I feel like such a friggin' idiot though for clicking respawn I had a DMR, Ghillie suit, and a G17 with fuckloads of ammo, medical supplies, and cooked meat. I just went to change settings, clicked respawn, and was like "Oh. Fucknuggets"

Or gasoline and matches :cool: Well, we already do have Jerry cans and matches! But sounds a bit too morbid, even for a post-apocalyptic zombie game. Hiding player bodies should take a LONG time. And it should only be possible to hide bodies outside of a building. So, if you want to hide a body you just killed indoors, you'd have to drag him out A shovel should be a requirement, and I think it should be a separate tool from the Entrenchment tool. Maybe make it rarer to find or something Hiding zombie bodies though should stay exactly how it is.

No, I'm not talking Call of Duty here... But since we have crashed helicopters around the map, what about adding in another (albeit very rare) way to find loot in the wild? Let's say during the outbreak, and following military intervention, cargo planes began dropping in supplies to the troops throughout Chernarus. Once the troops were overran, not all of these cargo drops were obtained, and remain unused, ready to be looted These could spawn ANYWHERE, especially in forests. It could simply be a small cargo container with a deployed parachute, containing medical supplies, ammo, weapons or gear. To make it slightly easier to find, perhaps it could have dead soldiers deployed around the area which could indicate that the container is nearby?

But then you're face is aimed right at the ground, which basically gives the other guy the ability to shoot you right away. And also, double tapping control only lowers your rifle. I'd like to have the ability to sling my rifle, and holster my pistol, and be able to sneak around that way.

Well gee, I'll be sure to get right on that. I'm totally confidant I'll be able to find the server you're on out of the hundreds of servers already running. Also, wrong place to ask. Survivor HQ up at the top is the place to post if you need help

The problem is there aren't many places to actually land the plane, not to mention the map is kinda small for a plane, at least in my opinion Landing at either airfields or Balota is extremely risk and dangerous as they are both very popular areas I wouldn't mind like a small, 2 seater plane that has a lot of cargo capacity. It would be a good vehicle for transporting goods between areas. Actually, I thought up of a cool (albeit impossible) idea. Give those planes the ability to drop packages around the map. Like... say some people are gathered in an area and are low on supplies/hurt, the plane could airdrop medical supplies with food and water to the group.

Kobra Much better sights and easier to find people while aiming M16A2's sights take up a good chunk of your screen and I'm just not a big fan of the gun unless it's the holo or ACOG version.

Than did something get affected by the cleanup or something? I've been finding the exact same loot everywhere that isn't full of tin cans It usually consists of: Flares, Chemlights, Bolts, Watches and Drinks I loot piled the Cherno supermarket twice, only to have this huge, giant pile of empty cans.

2 antibiotics in one medical tent (Was in Cherno) I also found a Mt. Dew in the Cherno church not 10 minutes afterwards! :P
