SyL3X 51 Posted January 14, 2014 I think once a player fells unconsciouss he should *not* be able to see what's going on around him. It's a ghosting exploit for the unconscious players giving intel to their friends about enemy position and it would be nice if it gets disabled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korsbaek 1778 Posted January 14, 2014 Isn't the screen black when unconscious? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TedZ 424 Posted January 14, 2014 Yes, it indeed is black. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SyL3X 51 Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) It's not always black. What happened to me is getting the unconscious msg on black screen and few seconds(10-15) later my cam shows up (little blurry though) and I can see what's going on around my body.

Combine (DayZ) 247 Posted January 14, 2014 Usually, it should be black to prevent such stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheNorCalSniper 63 Posted January 14, 2014 If you hit esc or bring up your menu, the screen lightens up slightly so you can see people around you. Not sure if that's what you're talking about but what I'm speaking off isn't that visible and you can slightly see people around you. Either way, I agree with the OP.One thing I would like to see is the screen fading in and out as you're fainting. If hit in the head and you get knocked out cold then keep it the way it is. However, if you go down from lose of blood, hunger, or dehydration then it shouldn't be so sudden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It give you a chance to shout to you buddy to get off his arse and see to your injuries. Also, I've noticed that if you're bleeding at this point, you can bandage yourself instantly, i.e. no animation delays. I'd guess that's probably a bug, though. Actually it works with any self-administered meds, but not blood or saline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted January 14, 2014 It is black, when it's not it's a glitch, report/upvote it. Every time I've had it, my vision has been dimmed anyway and I seam to have only a first person view of the ground, unable to control the camera. Not truly an exploit "Yeah he's by my body, I can see his shoes." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zer0HD2 (DayZ) 40 Posted January 14, 2014 When you are unconscious, you can hit esc, turn up brightness/gamma, and you can see in front of your body as if you were still awake/alive. Needs to be fixed IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
