Died while in a vehicle.

[Robin-andre 4]

Hey there! Today I just died randomly while sitting in a car. I alt tabbed for a few minutes. I came back and was dead. There was no people around at all, except for my buddy going around. Only us two on the server. Is this a known bug?

Someone else coulda joined, your mate coulda shot you. Not heard of any bugs like this.

But this have happened to me twice.. This time and one when I was sitting in a car, engine turned off In the middle of nowhere. Got killed when I alt tabbed back into the game.

Did the car blew up as well or did you simply die?

[Robin-andre 4]

I was simply dead.

Don't ALT + TAB while in a vehicle anymore?

Cars can be deathtraps in DayZ. Just a few light taps on a lamppost/tree, and before you know it, you're either up in flames, or thrown out of the vehicle with broken bones. And then killed when the car explodes, if you don't crawl away fast enough.

I can confirm, I got a quick screenshot of OP's friend moments before OP died.

It's dayz, a horribly buggy alpha, of course it's entirely possible. i've died from some of the weirdest things. but ultimately, we'll never know
