Neinsager 30 Posted March 19, 2013 Really strange: I got infected by drinking unboiled water on the weekend.Allright, could be worse, so I walked coughing and with 6k blood through the world.But then I logged in yesterday again - and right from the start my blood was in the red, so maybe only one quarter left...and it kept dropping to the point where my vision got blurry and I heard my heart beat and started shaking.And no, I was not bleeding.So I wolfed down two cooked steaks, three cans of beans, a box of painkillers and bandaged me, useless or not.Well, allright, the vision got clear again, and the blood went halfway up again....but then it started dropping again to about 1/4 of the full gauge....so I logged out before dropping dead in the wilderness for unknown reasons.Anyone an idea why this happened? Bug? Or did I miss something that can kill you without you even noticing? Or did they increase the symptoms of infection over night from "pain in the ass" to "Ha-ha, I kill you"?

Possibly a glitch or a modded private hive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neinsager 30 Posted March 19, 2013 Yes, I know it SHOULD stop at 6k....but apparently it doesn't....anyone else notice this?And about antibiotics...I spent half the weekend going through all residentials and hospitals - apparently it is easier to find aliens...BTW: Public servers (changing servers does NOT heal you), not private ones.

Sula 1205 Posted March 19, 2013 The mod gets changed far too much in my view. It's possible the level has been changed from 6k to dead. Check the latest change log, that might provide an answer. If not, maybe add it to a glitches/feedback thread on the latest mod update. :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An infected player loses blood continuously until they reach 3,000 blood, at which point the blood loss stops, but coughing continues. Coughing sounds will attract the attention of nearby zombies."Source: http://www.dayzwiki..../Status_Effects Edited March 19, 2013 by aHzdaNny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herrjon 478 Posted March 19, 2013 Not sure if it's a glitch or intended, but I know I've had some issues with infection in the past. Not dying of it, but anti-biotics not taking or my meters getting messed up. Anyways, if you need help, I suggest going to the teamspeak ts.dayzmedics.com and finding a medic to help you. Almost all of us carry at least antibiotics and several bloodbags, so we'll get you sorted out.Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
