TheJCBand on Skype, I'm definitely interested in playing with a group.

I'm also looking for people to play with add me on Steam: The Black Smoke, or Skype: TheJCBand.

I only read the OP, but I have to add my 2 cents: before this patch, the game pushed WAY too far towards the PvP side. I'm excited to see if the PvP actually does decrease a bit.

Hey all, I'm looking for people who want to group up for an authentic DayZ experience. I really can't get into any of the other maps besides Chernarus, and private hives always give BS starting gear or are chock full of vehicles or have some pay to win donation thing going on. I'm just looking for the real and legit survival gameplay. Add me on steam: The Black Smoke. My only requirement is that you must not be a bandit.

In game name: The Black Smoke Age: 24 Country/region: US Do you have teamspeak?/Are you able to get teamspeak?: yes Do you play any other games than DayZ actively, and if so, which ones?: Currently Planetside 2. I was also on a big kick of Dota 2 recently Other information?/Questions?: None right now

In-Game Name: The Black Smoke Location: CT, US Kind of player: Was a hero when I logged out last night, now a survivor? Experience: ~7 months Job: Real life job? Grad student Interests: Play guitar, write music, mountain biking

Age: 24 Name: John Location: CT, US Dayz experience: 7 months What role you would like to play: I don't know what you mean by this Steam name : The Black Smoke Skype name: TheJCBand

28 Days Later was the real kick off of the modern zombie phenomenon, and the zombies of DayZ behave much more like the zombies of 28 Days Later than the zombies of The Walking Dead, so if you're going to partially credit any movie/TV show with the success of DayZ it should be 28 Days Later. Even the title DayZ was probably at least subconsciously inspired by 28 Days Later.

I'm a fairly seasoned player, but am happy to play with newbies. Just looking for a group to have some fun with, maybe find some vehicles, set up a camp, kill some bandits. Add me on Steam and message me if interested. Name there is The Black Smoke.

Well since I made this post, I went out to get some food while leaving the game on so that maybe the timer would go down. When I got back, the screen was all black with a message in the middle that said "yo bitch suck my monky". I could not do anything except close the game by ctrl+alt+delete. So I joined the server again and the timer was all the way full again. A few minutes later, Nathan killed the whole server. At least I can play now, but this guy deserves a global ban.

I can't, I'm unconscious....

I'm in Berezino on US 3218. Got trolled hard here. The hacker has since been kicked. If someone could bring me an epi-pen, I'd be forever grateful.

I am currently logged on US 3218, and the time is 1:52 PM EST. These events started about 15 minutes ago. While I was minding my own business looting Berezino, a window similar to the old debug monitor popped up on my screen with the words "Monky Monitor". It displayed everything the old debug monitor had: bandit kills, murders, blood, etc. People started talking about it on side chat, and a guy named Nathan admitted he loaded it, and that it was "only helping us" and that it was some form of anti-hack. About a minute later BattleEye kicked me from the server (presumably because this script was loaded to my character). Well I rejoined and told the guy his script was not helping. A few minutes later a message came up at the bottom of the screen where the location is displayed when you log in saying a player named Nick was kicked by "Monk Anti-Hax" for having a hacked item. About 2 minutes later Nick rejoins and asks what happened, saying that he just opened a tent and got kicked. I replied that Nathan was running a hack that was responsible for him getting kicked. A few seconds later, my character falls to the ground unconscious, and the timer is not going down. I relogged, but I am still unconscious, and the timer is decreasing VERY slowly. It's now been over 10 minutes, and the timer is still at about 90%. At one point while writing this post, I alt+tabbed back into the game and saw that Nathan was kicked for teleporting. So is there any way I could get my character back up without waiting hours to play again?

You can't receive any more messages, man. Anyway, I'd be down to play, but I don't know if my ping will hold up since I'm in the US. Add me on Seam: The Blλck Smoke.
