Is your blood type the same with every character or does it change with every new spawn?

It's also happened to me. I'd be playing with a friend, they would aggro the zombies and I could stand still and not be attacked. Also when playing alone I would find that zombies would not spawn around me. I used this to my advantage, if I saw a zombie that meant another player was nearby as they would not spawn for me. This was a few months back, not happened to me on this patch.

More gore..... Yes please!!! I think it needs it, turning up to a city and seeing blood and guts splattered around will get you thinking wtf happened here!!!!

Kids!

I've played on servers before where my presence does not spawn zombies or loot. When zombies have been present due to another olayer being lical i don't AGro them. I've sat in berezino before with not a zombie in sight, when they do spawn I know it's because another player has entered the city. It's only happened a few times. It might be my connection or something.

Yes

exactly, this is part of what makes the game so immersive...... How about we just fast travel everywhere too!!!!!!!! I agree, this

I have a gtx680, i7 3.2, six core and can only achieve 60fps!!! It does suck but it's not like it makes the game unplayable!!!! Before tweaking the settings I used to get 30fps and it still ran fine.

I was using play with six for months, changed to dayz commander earlier this week and it's so user friendly.

I play on balota buddies european server and they have the same issue ( they know about it ) placed a tent, filled it full of stolen loot then logged out. Logged in to find the tent gone and all it's content. Oh well I've powered through and stolen even more, keeping it in vehicles for now.......till they are stolen from me!!!

Yeah, 64bit windows, can't remember the make of hard drive but it's 7200rpm without raid. I am not a pro with tinkering with pc's so I just bought a rig which would last some time but it sounds like I need to change something to improve my performance. I can overclock the gpu and CPU but I thought I wouldn't of needed too. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Well I have a Intel i7 six core 3.3ghz Nvidia gtx 680 2mb 16gig ram I only get 20-30 fps. I have everything on highest but looking at the posts above it sounds like I should turn a few things off which don't seem to be needed.

Hey guys, I had a tent on the public hive for the past 4 weeks stocked full of decent gear. I upgraded to the new update and joined the same server which also has te new update to find my tent gone along with all my hard work!!!! Anyone else had this problem? It's not all bad, at least now I get to enjoy scavenging all over again!

I've been playing the new update today and it's great fun!! Fired off my Ak kobra and had half of berezino after me. After a few panic shots I had to run. But I found losing the zombies no harder than before!!! I don't see any reason for complaints with this update, it's all going in the right direction.

This took me by surprise too. Been rolling into fences all day!!!!!

I Havnt been on for a cpl of weeks, how do u boil water? Have you got to find extra tools or do u just apply your water bottle to a camp fire??

Don't most people turn the in game music off so they can hear their surroundings. Listen out for footsteps of other players and zombies. I know I wouldn't listen to the radio for this reason, im sure many would feel the same way. But then again it might just be me!!!

I reckon you did the right thing, 2 players geared to the teeth like that would not of given u a chance if they had seen you 1st.The risk of them losing their gear just to be friendly would be too great. I am being stereo typical, they could of been the only camo'd friendly snipers on the game and you just blew them away!!!!!

Just no!!!!!

An okay server is uk 168 . Low population but always runs smoothly. I would like to see more people on it.

Up to recently If I bumped into someone close by i.e in a building I make sure I point my weapon away from them, make sure my actions do not look hostile and try to make contact. Most of the time the other player pauses for a bit not knowing what to do then just shoots me!!!! So now I have the mind set if I bump into someone who sees me too I just shoot them before they shoot me regardless of gear! From my experience they are just going to shoot me regardless what I do. If I come across someone who is not aware of my presence I will not engage, instead I will wAit for them to leave the area before continuing. I've tried to trust players.............

Hey guys, For the 1st time in probably weeks I killed 2 players in quick succession. I was playing with friendly intent telling ppl I was friendly, aiming my gun away from them and offering meds but on 3 encounters this ended with a bullet to my head. I decided no more Mr nice guy and ventured on, killing one survivor in a house through the window in berizno and another who pulled up to the furthest north shop in berizno in a truck. ( I tend to live up near there, 2 shops, close to NEAF, and some military tents). After killing the 2nd guy I've turned into a bandit. I've played about 10hrs since my last kill, avoiding player encounters etc but I am still yet to go back to Being a survivor? Apart from offering meds etc to players can I do anything else to increase my humanity? Thanks

Thanks guys, I'll try and hunt for some clothing otherwise I hope it'll reset soon!!

A dayz tale. A buddy and I were traveling from Cherno to elektro via the pylons through the trees, the plan was to hit the fire station at the power plant then head north. We get to the brow of the hill west of the power plant and scope elektro, i have a m16a2 acog (my favorite gun) and my buddy an as50 with little ammo.no zombies to be seen anywhere which was suprising on a 20ppl server. so after a few mins we follow the pylons to the power station. Half way there I spot someone on the roof of the hospital, we stop to watch his action when I get gunned down out of no where. Ak or similar I believe from behind me. My buddy who had taken cover nearer the power station saw a 3 man squad run past and enter the power station, he retreats to the tree line north of the power station to watch over my dead body whilst I respawn and make my way from Cherno once again following the same route as before. From the trees by buddy scopes the area and has a clear view of the firestation tower, all 3 of the guys were looting In there. To avenge my death he drops everyone of them with his as50. I finally make it back to my dead body and collect my gear and turn north to meet back up with my buddy who's keeping watch over me. I make it up the hill to meet him, stop to sort out my gear when we spot a ghillied sniper running through the trees a few metres away with an as50. With my buddy being low on ammo I decide to try and rob the guy so I give chase. I see him lie down under a fern to set up to snipe over elektro. I creep round to the side of him and instead of KOS I warn him that I'm there and tell him to drop his weapon. I have my gun free aimed on him at all times, I warn him not to turn around or he will die. I don't get any response so I begin to count down from 5,4,3,2 he turns at me so I open fire and somehow he does not die but he kills me with one shot of his as50. Now that was either very skillfull or very lucky of him. In response my buddy throws a frag grenade into the tree. No kill comes up so he throws a 2nd, still no kill, the sniper then charges off north through the trees not a scratch on him!!!!!!! Once again I respawn and begin my journey back to my buddy, this time I'm Not that far. My buddy now scoping elektro and the power plant can see quite a few players running around, scoping the firestation tower he sees 2 ppl looting who both get dropped from a sniper nearby. My buddy decides to look for the sniper, after a cpl of mins he comes across a player, pulls out his revolver, the other player turns and looks at my buddy so my buddy empties his revolver into this player who DISCONNECTS!!!! He must of pulled out his Internet connection or something so you still get cheating players!! I decide to loot the firestation tower which is pissing blood from all the dead bodies in there. I find an Ak with ammo and various essentials. I then head to my dead body which was missing my M16a2 AcOg. Not only did the sniper kill me. He managed to avoid 2 grenades whilst looting my body!!!!! That was the only thing that was missing so it could have been a lot worse. right we now finally start heading north, my buddy taking point, we travel so there's a bit of distance between us through the trees. Out of nowhere I hear shots, my buddy is taken fire from our left, I look and cannot see anyone through the trees till its too late, my mate is dead. I see another player running to my mates dead body, the same person who disconnected on my buddy. He is still a distance but I open fire with my AK and he takes cover behind a tree. The player then tells me he is unarmed and not to fire, i also behind a tree leaning out see the player step out from the tree no gun in hand. I'm thinking he has it in his backpack and when I step out he is just going to arm himself and shoot me. Either way he just shot my mate so with the guy standing still with no gun I decide "fuck it" and just opened fire and dropped him!!!!!! Yes he was unarmed but he just gunned down my mate after disconnecting on him so he deserves to die!!!! To give him some credit he did not have any guns in his back pack but I found a PDW with ammo behind the tree he was hiding behind. Whilst this was happening my buddy was making his way to me, I traveled south to meet him and led him back to his body. He runs up to his body and all I hear in the mic is "PLAYER" there was someone looting his body, the player gets up and takes cover behind a tree, I take up position behind another tree 2metres away whilst my mate who is unarmed is running around the 2 of us. Apparently it looked like a scene out of naked gun, both of us so close to each other leaning out taking pot shots at each other!!!!! The player then shouts he is out of ammo and needs a blood transfusion. I wait for my mate to grab his gear and is armed before deciding I might try and help this guy. Putting the fact that we were shooting at each other down to blind panic I step out of cover strafing to the right, my buddy to the left and see the player had armed his hatchet. I tell him to drop the hatchet and we will help, instead of heeding to our instruction he attacks with his hatchet so I run out the way turn and both my buddy and I open fire on the guy dropping him where he stands! After all this I am now a bandit (been a survivor since august) and my buddy has lost his hero skin. But we had a damn good time. Best session in dayz to date. Sorry the post was so long but hope you enjoyed my tale
