FYI again: You are NOT allowed to lock your server for that, pw it or kick people while doing the above. Your actions have nothing to do with hackers themselves. Everyone has to deal with damage dealt by hackers and you're not allowed to use your admin-priviliges to your advantage. If you want to relocate, do it in a live-game like everyone else.

+1 I appreciate every bugfix, but please release the melee-item fix asap. It causes even the best servers to crash after 10-15 mins.

NO I can't really see why it should be this way. After all I think the humanity-factor isn't even necessary, since you can be betrayed by anyone - wether he has ultra-high or ultra-low humanity.

Date/Time: 29. May 2012 11.54 CET+2 What happened: While joining the game a second playermodel being an exact copy of myself spawned. After it died, the player died shortly afterwards too. Where you were: Server Ru50 What you were doing: Ru50 just started the mission and was loading the first players onto the map. My clanmate Nuernberger got in a few seconds earlier in Chernogorsk than I did and told me there is a person right next to me via TS3. As soon as i spawned in I turned around and fired a salvo from my AKM, killing the player in question. I checked his gear just to realize it's a copy of myself I just killed. Before I could do anything we were attacked by zombies and had to run for a position where we could fight them off more easily. But maybe 10 seconds after I killed the player-model is suddenly dropped to the floor and the "You are dead" screen popped up. As we were the only players in cherno at that time this means I've successfully shot myself by killing a copy of my playermodel that spawned together with me. This is more than just frustrating considering the char was more than 450p worth, was filled with ammunition and claimed a gps his own. Of course I'd like to know if there is a way to reset my char of if I have to start all over.

Log-off timer ftw. If you get DC'ed by what ever reason it's your bad luck and you should suffer the consequences. Rocket shouldn't care too much about that. In any Onlinegame DC means you might lose stuff or your life. Wether it was because the cat ate your network-cable or you ragequited.

I've had 2 occassions yesterday where people D/C'ed after I've hit them. Multiple hits but apparently they dc'ed after the first hit so they can save their shiny sniper-rifles and loot from us. First a guy I've hit with a CZ in cherno firestation, then a guy at kozlovka whom I've hit several times with M4 from afar after four of us were hunting him for half a mile through the forrest. I really really hope there will be some game-mechanics that will fix this. Personally I'd actually appreciate if the players body would stay present for a while still, even if the player already DC'ed (And by that I mean killable for a few seconds and of course lootable as usual if he dies). You should always think twice where you leave and if you're really save in your position to leave. Btw rocket: Are server-admins allowed to ban people using this glitch?

YAY! :D

I indeed think more zeds will force people to rethink their gamestyle. Random zeds in the woods would be great too, as would be a little lower spawnrate of rifle-ammo. As for the coastal spawnrage where everyone kills each other for nothing... Maybe there could be a simple solution to this. I'd think of an introduction-text or a letter in your gear explaining some stuff or the situation and that people either have to chose the hard road (loner) or should work with others. Most of the firefights I've observed (was hanging on the coast for a few days) was because someone freaked out over totally harmless situations because they were overwhelmed with the situation. Not many of the fights were happening because people actually tried to run'n'gun through dayz. And those who did mostly died soon afterwards. Only in larger towns you're really endangered to get killed for nothing. Up north you'll get killed because people are greedy or fear losing their good stuff if you betray them. I'm fine with that. A certain degree of paranoia is important is think. It's still the apocalypse. BUT maybe there could be some mechanics that would grant groups some little advantage (Squad-system I'm looking at you).

All of them, but i tend to two.

they need a speednerf, but not like in the vid. a running-animation would be fine, but currently they're sprinting faster than the player it seems. @Time Glitch: The challenge is the numbers.

So apparrently the game-servers have restarted but the character-server is still dead and no-one can play right now due to being stuck on "Waiting for server response". I might add: After you've waited 5-10 minutes, you'll spawn invisble at 004117 not being able to respawn. (Which I assume means it's a connection-timeout to the character-server)

A lot of people have the same issue.
