You are dead

[Human Hunter 6]

Sign of a great dev team right here

 

no kidding

 

 

not to mention this "alpha" got pushed back an extra 7+ months or so

 

and it ends up being worse than the mod. I still can't really wrap my head around it. given the popularity of dayz you would think they would put in a professional effort.

 

ive lost two fully geared out characters so far to random bugs. and all i was doing at the time was getting them into a decent spot for when they patch in some of the stuff thats missing from the mod. right now there isnt really a reason to play at all.

Yep i cant even play at all because of this im on the verge of asking for a refund if it not fixed soon soon dont think i want to wait a month for another patch i been stuck like this all damn day done all the fixes people have posted none work ive logged onto every single server damn near still nadda.I mean i understand its alpha i understand there are bugs and glitches but i didnt waste 30 bucks to be stuck in respawn mode lol.Its just frusterating.

Alpha: game breaking bugs and interruption of game play. YOU AGREE TO THIS EVERY FUCKING TIME YOU PLAY.

 

Go away.

Bug: i joineda server it said you are dead when i join, i rejoin, you are dead, i rejoin you are dead, major bug? Yes, unpplayable? Literally, i cant play. Looks like ill be playing hardcore till its fixed.

This happened to me, too. What worked for me was exiting the server, making a new character, click "Set Default", log into a different server than the one you died in and you should spawn at the coast.

Spartan, generally your posts are pretty good Im assuming your just frustrated. If you want your problem fixed you need to post more information.

Computer specs

Type of server (did you try experimental, hardcore/regular)

Where you died, was anything happening to the server you died in?

Have you varied your game cashe?

Have you re-installed?

 

I expect a little more than bellyaching from you :P I know you know this is an alpha.

And boom a ninja workaround. Any relevant information would still be helpful though.

The "ninja workaround" doesn´t work for me.

(except the "different server" is on a different hive)

Are you f-ing Kidding me HE NEEDS TO GO LOG IT IN THE FEEDBACK TRACKER, then post the link so that everyone here who is experiencing this issue can upvote it, so the development team knows how widespread this problem is and can address it in proper order.

 

Posting spec's etc on the forum DOES NOTHING to resolve these issues

Has already been reported on the bug tracker numerous times, acknowledged by Dean on reddit, http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1x2vzq/cant_respawn_you_are_dead_on_joining_any_server/ 

and will be addressed in a hot fix http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/171660-pending-changelog-experimental-branch-034xxxxx/

I would say both would be the best solution. That way we can add to the knowledge base for people that have the same issue. A perfect example is how Grimey had a possible workaround. 

 

Being as you know about the bug report section, you also know how much junk is in it. If this turns out to be a common bug mentioning it here allows more of the general community to find solutions to the issue.

calling something an alpha is a great marketing tool

 

lets you get away with a half assed product

If you died on a regular server, join a hardcore and you can once again play, vise versa

Don't forget how you were forced to buy and test this product.  :thumbsup:

 

 

Yep, just happened to me today. I was meeting up with a friend of mine, he got scared shitless and fired one bullet and accidentally killed me. Lost all of my gear that i've obtained over the past couple of days (alpha, no hard feelings). Now all it says is "You Are Dead" and the respawn is completely greyed out ;__;

 

Guess i'll call it quits until this is fixed :/  I hate that I finally had to die by a friendly and not in an epic fight with others.

Sounds like you need less trigger happy friends.  Also, dying to your friend has nothing to do with the game being in alpha.  Finally, it seems you did get the epic death you were looking for when you hopped out of a building/tree and scared your friend.   ;)
