Sticky (DayZ)

I was in the military and its possible to give yourself an IV, me and some of my buds that was pretty close with the doc use to get them for hangovers during demobilization lol. But I'm not so certain about a blood transfusion. Granted I'm not a doctor, (combat engineer hooah) but I do know when the body loses a certain amount of blood, your veins and arteries will contract from your limbs to maintain bloodflow to vital organs in the body, this is why it's common to see someone who is suffering from severe blood loss to have blue/purple fingers and toes. This will make it impossible to perform a blood transfusions on yourself because when those veins contract from the limbs, you're not going to find a vein and more than likely the field medic is going to stick you in the jugular. Sorry for the long ass explanation, but I seriously doubt a self blood transfusion would even be possible in the real world.

Shouldn't be too difficult to implement, and yeah taking out the respawn completely will frustrate people who spawn in debug forest or if for some reason break a leg and cant respawn due to a bug.

Respawn once every 10-15 mins might just fix the whole ordeal

Why dont you make a post to provide help to the newbies instead of this mad rambling you're doing here.

Couldn't agree with this post more, maybe perhaps instead of nothing at all, have some items that a typical person may carry on their person, will give each respawn a "backstory" so to speak. Think about whats in your pockets right now that may be common in game, I have a lighter/matches in my pockets right now for instance. Some people carry pocket knives and wear watches, hell it wouldnt even be crazy to see a person on the street right now with a small backpack with a bottle of water and a snack.

Pro tips for ya man Attract zombies Run into a building with 2 exits (Barns, Orange brick houses) About halfway inside, turn around Shoot zombies ????? Profit If you do not have a gun, change number 4 to, "Run out of the other exit"

There should be no problem hoarding vehicles as long as it's within map boundaries. In my opinion if you drive outside the map at all the vehicle should explode, killing you and automatically respawning the vehicle. Another note I might add, is that vehicles should require keys, hotwire kits, steering wheel locks, etc. If someone puts hard work into fixing up a vehicle, it shouldnt be easy for you to just walk up and drive away with a brand new car...this is DayZ, not Wheel of Fortune

http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/18157-graphical-issue-near-balota/page__st__20 Did it look like some of the screenshots posted in this thread? Then yeah, thats the same issue I was having last night...

Seems to be a bug related to constantina wire and/or dead soldier bodies when looking at military tents or bunkers. I've seen alot of posts in regards to this, and I was experiencing the same issue last night near Bolota and Stary Sobor

Lol +1

Wouldnt hurt to have a team mate to hold down the vehicle or loot the towns for you, but if solo is the only option, park it in the woods somewhere not visable from town and make the loot run as quick as possible. Bout all I can think of, good luck!

You may rarely find one survivor that wont shoot you, more than likely because they're new, for the most part though its shoot on sight for anyone. I would suggest trying your luck at finding a group on the forums here to run with. In game bonding and uniting is about as common as Bigfoot now days

#14 added to list

Had the same thing happen to me at Balota and also the military tents in Stary

Yeah and yet still keeps it interesting. Instead of bandit skins and survivor skins, you can kinda personalize your character, so if you WANT to look like a bandit, you can. Or if you would rather your identity be a mystery to whomever you come across, that can be done as well.

I dunno about a ton, been on servers with 10 players max and I've walked from the Elektro to NW Airfield hitting every town in between, checking the spawn points and have not seen 1 vehicle...Dunno if people are still hiding them off the map or what? Maybe you could provide some insight on this?

No one got anything else to add?

Updated and bump

Yeah I figured this would come up, which is why I suggested the 2nd bulletin point of #3, make zombies run inside buildings or tack on a stamina meter. As it stands, I just think zombies are little to no threat

Nice, added to list! Oh and I have no idea what kind of plane that is lol

Note: I will also go into more details on each of the above points when I have more time.

We're all sore from hackers man, lost a bus full of guns and medical supplies and an ATV due to hackers the other night :(
