Insightful. Thanks for the input.

Once I have a weapon, obviously.

It's not really though. It's just turned into that.

My first "murder" was in Cherno firestation tower. I was up top prone, looking out of the window in 3rd person to see what was around. I noticed a guy running towards the building with zombies chasing him. He stayed at the foot of the tower shooting the zombies. I had some nice stuff on me and didn't want to tell him where I was in-case he lied saying he was friendly and killed me anyway. Once the shots had stopped I slowly went down the tower and could see him looting the zombies at the bottom. Instinct took over me and I dispatched him with my AK. He just said "why?" and that single word made me feel terrible inside. :( His loot helped me feel a little better though. :) The first time I was murdered was quite funny but infuriating at the same time. I had been collecting loot for a while. Me and a friend wanted to meet and we were trying to find stuff to live in the wild with. I had pretty much everything except matches, water bottle and a gun. My friend had a gun and water bottle for me though so all I needed was matches and we would be set. My friend then told me that he had died so I decided to go back to a barn for an empty water bottle I had stupidly left behind. I carefully crawled back to the barn with a hatchet as my only weapon. I was liking the hatchet though because I could silently murder the zombies. Got into the barn and seen a shotgun in the corner that must of only just spawned. I thought "I'll leave that shotgun until last incase I have to kill more zombies" as I start crawling to where the bottle was some guy pops into the barn, comes straight over and put's his hatchet into my skull. It was horrible because if I would of picked up that shotgun he would of had no chance, if I wouldn't of went back for that bottle I would of been away. Decision's are what save you or kill you in this game and as horrible as that death was it was my decision that got me killed. The story's your decision's make is why I love this game. :) I have a funny story of murder and revenge that I might aswell squeeze in here. So I had ran to Electro and looted the power station. Got my self an AK and 2 clips. A friend messaged me and said he was joining me so I told him where I was and decided to go up the hill by the power station and log out. When my friend told me he was near I logged back in and decided to have a rummage in the power station again for more ammo or some tasty bean's. When I got to the power station i made my way up the tower, looting as I went. Got to the top and BAM! Shot in the face by someone waiting for me. :( Little did he know that my friend was nearby with a load of zombie's chasing him. I told him where the bandit was and he made his way there. He had nothing to lose. When he got near the power station the guy started shooting at him. Big mistake. :) The zombie's turned attention to him and my friend said he heard a few shot's then the guy's name came up saying he was dead. :D Then my friend said someone else was in the tower too, and guess what? That guy made the same mistake too ha. Once they were both dead my friend looted them and we met up so I got all my stuff back and more. RESULT! :) Since global chat has been disabled, how would I even say friendly now? Wrong place to ask probably but I just kill anyone I see because I have no idea. Unless they kill me first of course :)

Zombies glitching through walls needs to be fixed. Zombies walking through doors needs to be fixed. Zombies detecting you through a wall needs to be fixed. (may of been fixed in new update but haven't had a chance to really test that out yet.) I like that the visibility has increased with the new patch. I don't like the way zombies have to walk inside buildings. Run into a building, crouch out the other side and most of the time you can get away without a scratch. I know that having them running at 100 miles an hour in a building would be stupid but running 100 miles an hour then moving like a snail inside a building is stupid too. Need's to be a balance or a reason they slow down in buildings. Oh and GoodNewsEveryone if you don't like sneaking around then this probably isn't the game for you.

Is there going to be a data wipe for everyone? I don't mind if there is, I just want to know if it's worth playing right now if the stuff I collect will disappear.

Aaaah I see. I presumed the vid's WITHOUT the counter where the old ones. Thanks for the info mate and thanks to anyone else who replied to my question. :) So launching through the 6 Launcher are official and the host can't just put thing's they want in? I want to play pure DAYZ not some bulls**t servers that people have messed about with

Bought ARMA 2 yesterday to play DAYZ after watching gameplay video's and playing in a friends house. Downloaded it for 5 hour's and then installed it through STEAM. Could not connect to any server once it was downloaded. My friend was having the same issue so I knew it was not just me. Managed to get into server's today through the Six Launcher but I've noticed that not once did I have a humanity counter. My friend has been playing a few days now and he said he didn't even know their should be a humanity counter as he'd never seen it before. I know there should be a humanity counter because I have watched many gameplay video's of DAYZ. Are me and my friend connecting to the game properly? Has the humanity counter been removed? Have me and my friend got the wrong version of DAYZ or ARMA patch?
