In fairness that guy on the corner should have got you, that was lucky. how did you get nvg's and a bizon with just 20 odd zombie kills? Well it was pretty badass, I'm not going to try to take that away from you.

I agree, zombies are far too jerky, I have had the same one see me, run away from me for 25ft run back to me run past me for another 10ft run around me in circles finally coming to a stop behind me all the the space of 3 seconds. Firstly why are the entire population of Chernarus Ninjas? and secondly how did an entire population of Ninjas get wiped out by zombies? Cmon the RP guys need to know

It is an issue, tbh I resorted to the max brightness+gamma simply because playing legit at night with flashlights/flairs is next to impossible. and who cant hold a pistol and a flashlight? and why do I have to throw my means of defence on the floor to see what's going on. let us, hold a pistol and flshlight, while being able to aim the flashlight while at a jog or make nvgs a whole lot more common and bring them in line with other equipment that everybody has to have to survive. maybe we could have to find batteries for them, more reason for geared up players to venture into towns and another consumable for us to horde. actually that's a great idea lets do that.

I agree, That 5 min shock wait thing has gotten me killed due to bugs more than anything, being bugged and unable to bandage etc. tbh I have no idea why we don't have a log out timer, that hurts people who want to abuse it than a log in timer that just hurts everybody. also I don't think Alt+F4 works anymore but I may be wrong, try it.

yeah that's what I guessed, hopefully in time it will sort its self out

is this fixed yet? I'm more scared of a new pair of pants than any amount of zombies and bandits.

that was pretty dam cool, only thing that was missing was an action hero quip "your going to need some morphine after this" BOOOM! as he crashes into a hospital etc in a schwarzenegger voice of course

Wow long post, my two cents I really do not like having to shoot some poor chump in the back but I do so knowing that he could turn around and would likely shoot me or could even follow me out of town and shoot me in the back while I'm making a fire to cook some meat so killing him and removing him as a threat is the safest thing to do. killed two guys in polana earlier tonight simply because trying to get out of town unnoticed was more dangerous than killing them. however one thing that I will say is removing the kill counts on the debug monitor would cut down pk's simply because people would no longer be seeing their total kills on a screen, that guy would no longer be bragging rights to your mates ("hell yeah 21 kills lol") he would simply be a guy, taking away the "reward" somewhat if the kill isn't counted anywhere. also we need something to do once we are geared up other than killing people till someone gets us and then starting again. douche bag snipers at electro capping newbs with .50 cals, well not much you can do about that, suppose it would be funny sometimes.

Praise jesus, I rubbed my face on the thing for 45mins trying with pistol/rifle/prone/crouched/standing and finally found a spot I can access it from and ate half a cow, and took some morphine. I'm not down yet, YOU HAVEN'T KILLED ME YET YOU BUGGY PIECE OF SHIT GAME, ROOOOOOOOAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!! lol as I was typing that I moved and got ko'd by the tree again and bled out before I could bandage, holy shit how could my perfect game turn out to be such a piece of badly made amateurish junk. Yep think I'm done, so long friends. hopefully someone will make the game well at some point and I'll see you then.

man, now every time I pass out when I come to I wander off in a random direction and have to relog. At least we have beartraps.

thanks you all for your mature replies, was expecting to come back to "lol l2p newb" guess we're all in the same boat, all in the same buggy boat that spawns upside down, breaks the legs of anyone within 7 miles of it whenever a wave hits hit and makes you impotent if it loads within your view distance.

from the wiki (the text I linked has to be highlighted to show up for some reason its right under here) Tent placement: As of now the tent placement seems to be very bugged. Though, the following steps seem to fix most of these problems: Crouch and enter first person view, look at the ground ahead of you, press G to open your gear and try to place the tent. It wont work the first time, so move back a little step using your S key and try again while your gear window is still open. Try this like 5-10 times, works! It is possible to place tents very close to trees, even under them, also, the area doesn't have to be perfectly flat. http://dayzwiki.com/....php?title=Tent

Having finally got a good spot that is a pain to access the tent if you don't know the right spot I find myself agreeing with this guy, wiggle about until you find a spot and just accept that the trees will eat your tent from time to time when you try to set one up. Yeah I know its kinda a exploit but for the love of god this game has burned me with enough bugs that having one that is helpful sometimes is kinda nice.

Same here, found a tent ("Oh Hell Yeah") ran 5km till I found a perfect spot, tried to pitch it 15 times untill it finally worked ("sick") and then spent 20 mins rubbing myself against it trying to open the thing only to find a leaf in the way. even crawled inside it at one point and got a broken leg for my trouble. seems out only option is to put it in the open and have people help themselves or hide it and then we may as well set it on fire for all the good it does us. for the love of god I tried rubbing my face against the thing only the have to game shrug and say "sorry what tent?, I don't see one, on your way chump" owell off to the supermarket again to fight my way through 15 zombies that see me from 100m away. Sigh Edit: turns out I didn't need the tent in the end anyway, got my head blown off by some guy with a .50 cal. that'll learn me to dick about in the woods shooting zombies for no reason. actually tbh no it won't, I'm still going to dick about in the woods shooting zombies for no reason, your move Mr .50cal.

i'd keep it in your pack/tent untill its fixed to be on the safe side.

Thank you

I'll add myself to this, found a ghillie suit ("Oh hell Yeah!!!!") put it on swam around in the floor for a few seconds, stood up to find I have lost a FN FAL with 2 mags, one of those UZI things, I forget the name with about 6 clips of various ammo, 2 akm mags and various morphine/food etc, Left with a AKM with no ammo :( maybe just remove them from them game untill you can get them working Sigh
