Hello everyone. I've been playing Dayz casually for the last 6 months or so. Just an average skill player (haven't flown a heli yet or anything that complex) that sometimes plays as a bandit and occasionally helps others....depending on the mood. I like to roam lone wolf style and slowly gear up and have fun encounters and think it would be fun to have one friend to team up with on a regular basis a couple times a week and roam together while on skype. Please let me know of any interest. Thanks!

Hey guys! Title says it all. I am really interested in 2017 and after googling for 15 min and searching all over the forums I can't find a list of all the changes and patch notes. Please link so I can see what they did and understand more than just "Dude, less guns and more scavenging" Whereas that is really cool sounding I'd like to know more!?!??! Thanks!

Dayz people! I have taken a hiatus from Dayz for the last couple months because it seemed like hacking was all over and I was busy with work IRL. So ...Please take a minute to answer a fellow Dayz player's questions about potentially coming back. 1 - Please tell me that the hacking has gone down? 2 - Are there any solutions to server hopping yet!??! This was a MAJOR problem with dayz and EVEN worse with Warz and really jeapordizes the integrity of the game. So?? 3 - Can hacking and server hopping be solved with any sort of temporary mickey mouse solutions!??! Do private servers or any known servers do a good job in shutting down these game breaking issues? 4 - I heard on IGN there are new maps besides cherno? Is this true? How many? How cool! 5 - Please summarize any major new patch changes that may seem relevant to a player gone for the last few months! Thanks for your feedback, patience and....well, and Cheers!

I love this server but right now when I went into my favorites on DayZ commander this server has 0 people on it and is in RED?!?! what's up with that?

I'm pretty much brand new. How can you tell how long you've survived in game and/or how many days? Not all servers have that top right information tab right?

Matt...that makes sense..! yes I was in namalsk. New issue that really bothers me. I just returned to Dayz after 2-3 months away...and played for a nice solid 3 hours today. Just five minutes ago the OOOOOLD issue where I have graphical "tearing" or black triangles showing up as I approacha military base just occurred. Can't believe this crap STILL happens. I'm playing no a whitelist map of Namalsk by the way. These graphical issues are STILL in the game?!?! yeesh.

Thank you so much! Such a great server and love the rules, start items as low...etc etc. This is perfect and legit!!

Hello all! Tired of hackers and I also am excited to join a serious community. Name in Game - ThoMas Location in Real Life - New York and London (travel to both for work each month) Guid number - 7f63da204389037b77805331ed139b7f **edit - Please allow me in as soon as possible since I'm free all day and would love to play right now! Thanks!

actually...what's happening is that in 3rd person point of view the screen is stable. When I switch to first person point of view it shakes....in prone, crouch, or standing....and it does the same thing when aiming. WTF?

ok. So thanks everyone. Been playing and enjoying the game a TON! Another question....I'm playing the game and for some reason when I aim my screen will "shake" alot. Like...it will bounce around a bit weird when I aim and then even when I don't aim after the screen will lightly bounce around. Anyone know what this is? Thanks!

haha ok will do! So, check this out. I'm playing on the map Taviana. Spawn in the city called "BOYE" which is on the right island bottom left side about. I walk to the very next two towns. The signs in GAME say "Noctonha" and "Cagnha". But the city names on the online maps are completely different. Any idea why? Thanks guys!

Dude, I know I'll rarely use them...but I don't care...I just need to know how for peace of mind. Please, someone...explain - how in the flying mother $%ck do I equip and throw a smoke grenade????! lol....can't do it at all.

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! Thank you so m,uch for all of this great information. I'm thrilled! OK, SO, stupid question. I've used dayz commander before (and that other launcher as well...forget the name) and all went well mostly. Sometimes it wouldn't load up correctly....but the last few weeks I played it did. For me to play on one of these private hives....what do I do with all this IP info etc on these links?? I'm used to just picking a game from the list on dayz commander or whatever but to join a private do I need to do something "else"? If so, would someone please tell me what I need to do to join one of these!???! Many tahnks and I'll be on and around TONIGHT!

Hello everyone! Thanks for reading. some newbie questions I tried searching and couldn't find with the search... 1 - I'm in Berezino city. At the hospital. Shot out the front few windows 6-8 times. Windows didnt break and I can't get inside. The only time I entered a hospital was one time when I had a hatchet and hit the front windows. What should I do? 2 - Once I notice that my guy is "unconscious" from zombie hits...what do I do when the hourglass runs out and I'm still alive? Run? 3 - I found a gun with a scope. Sometimes i somehow looked through the scope and other times I couldn't. Tips? 4 - reload at cardboard box? eh? please elaborate. Thanks guys! fun game but really confused here with some things. I did survive for a few hours for my first time today though! .... by mostly running...away....and further away...again and again....arghhhh. fun game tho! cheers

....and lastly!! please!! I've tried reading the newb guide but I CANNOT equip the hatchet I just found. I have one gun with a scope and JUST found the hatchet. I try to unequip it from my toolbelt and it keeps telling me some message in white about not having enough room in inventory to unequip. Please someone patiently detail how to equip this darn thing! thanks fellerz!

same here. ETERNAL loading screens...sometimes...after 20 minutes or so I get in. Heaven forbid I die...then I have to wait all over again ! this is crazy! Anyone have any REAL solutions yet? please?

So right now I'm alt tabbed since its been stuck on "waiting for character to create" for 10 minutes. Then I'll see "Loading" for 10 minutes. Then I get in and it plays fine. Then, when I die, I have the fun of waiting for all that all over again. My game used to work fine but then after the recent steam patch in the last couple days I've had this problem since. Can you people please be kind and detailed enough to help me out!??! Please! Great game and I want to enjoy! Cheers

actually guys.. I keep sitting at the loading screen for like 5-8 minutes per game. Pretty exhausting. Any thoughts?

Ahhhhhhhhhh ok at least that makes sense. So everyone now has to wait a bit longer to join eh?

DOES ANYONE have a fix for this?
