Server : EU 40 Timeline : 24:00pm - 01:00am UTC+2 What happened : Me and my two friends were having an campsite at Dark Castle. First priority was to observe the surrounding landscape in order to see some crashed heli sites, but we decided to stay and wait, if we would face up other survivors. After a while of waiting, around 30 minutes or so, i saw three survivors heading towards the castle from the southwestern side of the castle, during this time i were on the top floor of the fort. I decided to open fire, as they seemed to be threat to us (by observing their car on the forest and the weapons they had). One blow, first man down, two others manage to push next to the Castle wall and they are now out of my sight. But, by observing the landscape, they only had two possible ways to get around and inside the castle. My two friends blocked the other end, and i blocked the another end of the wall, by this tactic having them jammed and force them to come on us, instead of trying to get to them. Well, i had in mind there is a high possiblity, these people would log out the server, get to another one and move up in the fort, get back to the one we are in and shoot us in the back. But, i was foolish and trusted in the nature of these men. After a while of waiting, aproximately 10 minutes or so, i hear a footstep x1 and pistol is throwing bullets on my back. The situation was clear, only way for him to get up there, was server hopping, as i blocked the route from getting around the wall with my friend, having the third friend of mine blocking the way up in the fort. He managed to kill me, and i wounded his ass pretty well by hitting once in his leg with m107, and i yelled in Mumble to my friends to go get this fucker down, and that's what they did. We managed to solve out this mans name was : Darkdeger. Another one of his friends died like a man, and the third one aborted off the battle, not allowing us to get a hint of his name. I dont care wether there's anyone out here who can, or are willing to do anything about this player Darkdeger, but atleast other community members might now know a thing or two about his manliness way of surviving.

One of my first days in DayZ. Night started to fall upon, as i wandered off the streets of Cherno. I had no idea, where i was, where i was going to or where the heck i SHOULD go. During that evening, there was alot of survivors roaming Cherno, and aproximately 99% of them was hostile, guns were blazing nonstop and infected ran the streets, fairly often right after some miserable and unarmed survivor's ass. This is, what happened : I scavenged supplies, i had an winchester, revolver, all kind of neat stuff & plenty of survival supplies. Cherno became silent, no more gun shots or infected screaming around, and i got all the time to investigate (thats what i thought..). All of sudden, automatic weapons X unknown starts to blaze out, i didnt know where from, but i didnt even want to find that out, as they was pointed towards me. I ran like a wild bunny inside the first building i was able to, also covered my escape with plenty of random shots towards the unknown enemies, most likely didnt hit a bloody thing.. Few seconds before i hided out inside the building, wich happened to be some sort of office i notice, i attracted around 5 infected because of the shooting. And what makes the story hilarious ? The fact, i wasnt only one running around like a headless chicken, i ran right towards another survivor who ran to me from behind the corner inside the office, and i cracked up my leg by the power of the crash. We both stopped, gazing each other from eye to eye and i hear a voice over mic "lol sorry, imma in a hellish of hurry!", and right after he rushes up to the upper floor. I sit there on my ass, legs broken and watch how infected following HIS ass, starts to roam inside, and the infected i atracted, roams from the other way. Situation was helpless, by the moment i saw the other survivor, he seemed to be unarmed, i yelled over the microphone to get his pity ass back to the downfloor and fight like a man, as he made my damn leg fall apart, but he didn't answer! I decided to give the infected hellish a fight before they'd get to bite my sweet sweet ass. Everything happened so quick, the room was pretty dark. I just aimed, and shot randomly to a direction i saw something standing, after the gun blaze from the previous shot enlightened the room. After a very intense minute i realized, i survived, i'd stay alive! I felt thrilled, as i was under a pile of dead, smellyass pack of zombies. I wanted to check out, what happened to the other survivor and ask him to tag along, as there was some people still outside shooting around with the machine guns. Before i got to say a thing, he rushed down from the upper floor, and the last thing i saw, was a muzzle fire from a makarov.. The walls on the office got a new, bright red&yellow paint... Afterwards, i can only keep on guessing.. I think he found a makarov from the upper floor and decided to let me handle the infected for him or let the infected handle me for him, afterwards cleaning up the mess, whatever is down there. After that day, i have sticked up in the motto "hunt, or be the hunted" Even so, the death wich occured, it was pretty legit. I cant be mad about it as i memorize what that random survivor said to me after breaking my leg off, having infected swarming around us and AK's throwing heat on us. I saved his ass by the moment the infected interested more of the easy pray, laying on the ground, instead the hastemaking marathonrunner and he thanked me with a pretty awesome hole between the eyes.

I would like to have an answer of some sort in this matter also. That's exactly what i did, downloaded from the torrent link as forums assigned me to for the 1.7.2, had the new files, i threw em up in my Arma 2 OA @Dayz/Addons folder, and just overwrited the old ones. That's how i thought it would work out the easiest, but i have no idea is it working. I'm still having the same error as everyone else, jamming for the character creation, and on the bottom right corner of the gamescreen it shows 1.6xxxx on version for some reason.
