Same no Gillie - Sucks because when the load screen starts for me I see the little white balls which indicates Zeds or Players and takes 10-15 mins to load and when I spawn I am being attacked - I get a way thanks to the new ditch Zeds update but I always end up in Chernos beach or Eltros beach which is death cities - God Help Us All - Also What is up with the dogs already in Servers? Been stalked 3 times and had to abort because they wouldn't leave me alone
Name is Chuck, Dont laugh but Dayz is the first ever PC game I have played and love it - I am on EST, I am 39 and mature sometimes and would like to hook up with Loners as myself for some treasure hunting - I do have a mic and know how to use it - I dont like to Murder but if I dont have a choose and the player doesn't respond by mic or global I will elude or defend (LoL - I love the adrenalin rush) I play 6-8pm EST M-F and Weekends anytime - Skype is elysium.73 Happy Hunting
As of July 18th 230 am after the new patch I am also stuck at Wait For Host, I have been playing Dayz successfully for over a Month and Kaboom - Granted it is a Beta and may have bugs which I have not experienced yet I would love to be able to load successfully - I have tried over 20 Servers with the same result - I should have not updated yet ( As I cry)
I also am thinking on renting a Server from Defcon and I was looking at 25 slots until I read this - When you say 30 to 40 Minimum, why is there a lot from 10 - 25 and why over a 100 are private and locked? And they have been up for quite a while? And also to the guy who said "Why Host A Server" There are a lot of people who play this game and get very frustrated when Clans or groups hang on hills of every town and snipe anything that moves over and over again. Anyone with a sniper is 90% out for a Noob kill since you really dont need a sniper for Zeds, I truly love the game and I have never played any PC games until I saw Dayz on YouTube and I ditched my Xbox for a Alienware and plan on never going back - Thanks for one of the best games i have ever seen and played :) With a big smile
