What you posted then is just as ignorant and stupid as asking why the game isn't free for Alpha testers.

It actually magically converted itself back into a Coyote starter pack thing, so I have no idea what happened there? Not sure if that is meant to happen or I got glitched out of my Alice pack and everything that was in it, since - y 'know it just vanished into thin air n stuff.

Alright, will bare that in mind then. cheers.

What do you mean its still there? It clearly isn't

I take it your not an FPS player by nature? Generally speaking, people don't stand there and let you shoot them so in reality, what you're saying is "I can't aim at a head unless it's not moving, which means no one can"

Personally I think leaving the server to avoid a conflict that wouldn't exist in a real life situation is fine. I mean, you can't quit in real life to be safe, but you also can't magically appear behind someone into an awkward situation where neither party deserves to die. This automatic hate towards anything ALT+F4 is so sad, yes in the middle of a fire fight or in open play it's just cheap but against hackers and situations that shouldn't have happened to due unrealistic circumstances, and where it benefits both parties involved. who cares?

There's a crowbar in dayz?

Says the ignorant sniper

I have no idea how to use grenades, how to equip them... I looked through controls, found nothing, tried to right click the grenade in my inventory and it didn't do anything. I know this is a really stupid question btw, just something I haven't been able to figure out, despite figuring everything else out.

The real question I have for myself is, why the hell have I never pressed the 'F' key :S cheers guys

I broke my collar bone and had surgery on it, I was on a constant stream of morphine into my blood stream. It didn't make it heal!? what gives ....

We had a funny a moment yesterday in Cherno, me and my friend were in the residential building opposite the supermarket. He's in the building and I'm outside scouting the area for any potential threats. I spot 2 guys inside the supermarket, I'm like "2 guys in the super market!" So, my buddy comes out the building to have a look, I'm about to work out what out plan of action was - as relatively fresh spawns we needed some more gear, I have an AK-74 my buddy had a Lee Enfield. As I am thinking whether we take them out, or keep distance I hear a Lee Enfield shot, my buddy had just tried to shoot the guy, through the glass of the shop. He didn't kill him (obviously) and I start screaming "WHY DID YOU DO THAT" So, bullets start raining down on us so we bail back into the building, to avoid getting trapped inside, I decide to go aggressive and fight back I go out the back to try and get a shot from a different angle and some other guy is there, one who wasn't even with the two in the supermarket and he hits me with 1 makarov bullet, making me bleed and put me in pain. Eventually, we see loads of zombies running from the scene, at this point we realised the two guys in the super market had killed the lone Makarov wielder and perhaps thought he was the guy who was in the building. So these two guys start running to the hills and me and my buddy chase after them but they was always too far away to get a shot off so we decided to let them live, of course we tried to take some little pot shots at them when they was 300 meters away. Whether or not I hit them I don't know, they certainly didn't die though.

I've currently got a coyote backpack which is full of med supplies, meat, I've got like 5 water bottles, 7 clips for my AK-74 Kobra and about 5 clips for my M1911. Got toolbox, hatchet, knife, matches, compass, map, watch. things I want to add Sniper Rifle (any will do) GPS RANGE FINDERS NVG ghillie/camo possibly a PDW instead of the M1911.

I have the same problem with a 1gb 460

So, he was freshly spawned in Elektro, we met up and scavenged some stuff (it was strange though, because Elektro was full of dead bodies but with no living players in sight… Anyway, we went into the church and there was a guy in there with just a Makarov, I aimed at him for a moment to see if he shoots. He did, he actually hit me for about 3000 blood, so I popped one AK bullet in his head and that was that, my friend got some decent stuff, tools and an alice pack from him. I had like 10 bits of raw meat in my backpack, and about 5 water bottles, bandages, bloodpacks, morphine, painkillers, even antibiotics. So we’re good to head out of Elektro. So my friend, when we get into some wooded area decides to sort his backpack out and I cook my meat. I get a message on steam friends, and since I launch the game through sixlauncher, the steam overlay doesn’t work. So I alt+tabbed out to see the message, I tab back in and for some reason my AK starts shooting by itself. I was aiming at my friend, he died. L MORAL OF THE STORY! DON’T ALT+TAB OUT AIMING AT YOUR BUDDY! (also, how can I get the steam overlay to work)

LIFE MUST BE SO HARD FOR YOU! *still regrets not picking up the CZ550 he found the other day*

I agree with most of your sentiments to be fair. I think there needs to be something to strive for once you have all these amazing weapons and stuff. I just don't know what.

Last night, I was out in the middle of nowhere. When all of a sudden I start getting shot at, I'm thinking "woah what the hell!" so I spin around to where the shots where coming from, I fire a burst of AK rounds and take the guy out. He didn't even hit me once. However, things then took a turn for the worse, a zombie hit me from behind and broke my leg. 11800 blood, not bleeding but with a broken leg. I think to myself "it's ok I have some morphine in my backpack" so I check.... Oh. No I don't. CRAP. Immediately I start thinking about the long crawl back to Elektro hospital. I crawled to check the dead guy who I just killed for morphine, that's all I wanted at this point. Nothing on his inventory, crap crap crap. Maybe in his backpack? YES. He had a single morphine injector in his backpack. So I fix myself up and head to a hospital and stock up on medical supplies. PHEW. How about you guys, any times where you got a bit of help from lady luck?

I have thought having something like this would make the game that bit more interesting. Give you some more decisions "oh I found this rare attachment for a gun I don't have, but... I don't have much bag space... do I leave it or take it".

The loot maps are practically cheating when you think about it. "oh shit, everyone is dead with zombies running around, let me google loot spawns so I can find myself a weapon!" There should maybe be some kind of ingame system that gives hints and clues where good places for the loot are, so maybe you find a chalk board in an empty house that has a little list on it of potential loot. Then the loot maps need to be DESTROOOOOOOOOOOOYED.

I agree there needs to be more low tech weapons, but not that many. Just a few.

I made a thread which has had plenty of likes and replies based on this idea (and what two people have responded with here) http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/35400-a-little-addition-to-make-things-a-little-more-personal/

I mentioned this yesterday because I got on an ATV and it drove up into the sky then landed on it's side and rendered it useless.

I always feel bad when someone starts shooting at me with a Makarov, because all I have to do is shot 1 burst from my ak-74 kobra and their feable attempt at killing me from 50 meters away is just laughable.
