Still waiting for the server IP, that's the first step to figuring out the problem.

If it isn't the work of the devs, then whos work is gonna be ? ours ? nobody ?

So that I can help insure that this does not make it to the final build.

 

 

read the post i linked. it will help explain heart attacks, there is a video from rocket and one that goes into detail about heart attacks. then maybe you can figure out if it was random or if something else played a role in your heart attack.

Lmao. Regardless of the fact that it's on experimental.

You are one of those guys that sprints everywhere no doubt. It's not random. It's from putting stress on your body, such as SPRINTING FOR HOURS!

With no break. (actually sitting the fuck down)

I have been playing on this character for a few days, and was looting in a random small town. I was incredibly geared out, ammo/weapons/food/supplies, and all of a sudden-

 

"My pulse feels irregular"

wtf?

"I feel like I am going to pass out"

......

 

You are dead

 

 

 

 

 

Seriously, this is incredibly stupid. No words can describe my frustration at dying not by a glitch, not by a hacker, but by a god damn heart attack.

 

Anyone else had this happen to them? What am I supposed to do in this situation? Can defibs be used on yourself? Do you really have to carry a defib around at all times to save yourself from this RANDOMLY GENERATED GARBAGE?

What about painkillers?

Seriously, I am mad. 

If it makes you feel any better there is nothing you can do to revive yourself except hope that you were well fed enough to eventually wake up (you will only revive if you are regenerating shock/blood). By the sounds of it you experienced a shock unconsciousness and you certainly will not recover, because you were losing shock when you passed out. Or gaining shock depending on how you look at it. It might not be pleasant to hear but this is your fault for not keeping your character healthy. Unhealthiness manifests itself in many ways. It is not random. You must be well fed and hydrated at all times and address any unhealthy status messages as soon as possible. Everyone eventually learns the hard way not to get too attached to any one character. At least not in alpha. Your initiation is complete. Go with honor. 

 

Edit: It's also possible you suffered from a blood unconsciousness. If you are pushing your character too hard on low blood, he will pass out. Again if you weren't otherwise healthy when you passed out you are not waking up. 

 

edit, edit: It actually said "you are dead?" If so obviously there is no coming back from that. Still your fault though.

You have literally ignored all evidence, and formulated your own reality. What is the matter with you.

 

 

I was looting a town, on a low pop server. Was not running for a long distance at all.

 

The hate in people like you is truly scary

I read somewhere that they were going to make diet more important, so you'll get sick and die if you try to live off of cereal and soda alone; this could be something like that. Your character should have been watching his blood pressure a little better; tell me, would he have any reason to be under stress?

I have been playing this game for some time, I understand this is alpha and not to get attached to my gear. That is irrelevant to this topic.

This seems odd.  How many healthy men and women between the ages of 20 and 40 die of heart attacks?

 

I know the world of DayZ is dangerous and terrifying, but we have soldiers and civilians in war zones living their lives without fear of random heart failure.

Right now even if you downloaded experimental, you can still play the stable. That's why people have been asking you to double check.

This is incorrect; I just tried it.

 

 

For those of us who refuse to do some research/reading.... pretty sure heart attacks aren't added as a random event. Everything we've been told thus far has indicated that it's caused by some sort of trauma and only happens if you also go unconscious. Dead bodies/pulseless hearts cannot be defibbed.

 

Unless it's been confirmed somewhere, please stop assuming heart attacks are caused by soda, running, randomly generated or whateverthefuckelse. :) Is diet planned to have an effect on this? Maybe. But they're not just adding heart attacks (or.....cardiac arrest) for shits and giggles.

My diet consisted of only soda, water, tuna and the random can of baked beans.

 

I may have died from a shitty diet, that is a reasonable answer

 

Anyone else think this is possible in normal branch servers?

Guys, again I have posted the server on which this happened WHICH IS NOT AN EXPERIMENTAL SERVER. I wrote down the server so my friend could join me later. 

 

It was also impossible for it to have been experimental, because it was a low pop server. 

 

I was being a scardy cat and avoiding people, I insured I joined a low pop and even wrote down the name. Here is all the info again-

I think the devs need kick this idea into the long grass. You can't even get tired yet, and they're introducing heart attacks? Insane.

If everything you stated is exactly the way it happened (server, position, behavior, etc.) then it's pretty obvious it's a bug. The way they want to implement heart attacks is like if you run for an extended period of time, get sick do to various reason or even get shot  (you can get in a state of shock) you can have irregular heart rate and get a heartattack. It's pretty complicated program wise so I wouldn't be surprised if at this stage it would be glitched.

 

But this program is only active on the experimental branch, so it's really interesting and fascinating it happened to you on the stable branch.

Well do you know how they even work? ..how they're being incorporated?

It seems like a weird bug to have a change leak into normal build.

 

Also, it seems incredibly unlikely that it AUTOMATICALLY downloaded the experimental without me knowing, and then somehow reverting back without me knowing.

A bug it must be, and a really terrible one. I will take my posts to the bug forum now that I am sure this is not intentional

Hmmm... Sounds like you experienced quite a bug since it was on a stable branch... The only thing I can possibly formulate is that maybe you automatically downloaded the experimental build and when you joined a regular server you still had all the experimental patches on your game, thus giving you the possibility of a heart attack.

 

Either that or like I said a huge bug. I mean maybe somehow the low pop server somehow was able to update his server to have whats in the experimental branch? IDK lots of questions.

 

Sorry for your loss OP, and sorry about the horrid responses from the Douchebags =(

So, you didn't run to the town? You just magically appeared at this small town? No physical activity was involved? You just kind of like, willed yourself into this town and each of it's buildings?

While everyone has been completely ignoring my on-topic reminder (I've cleaned the thread and send someone for a timeout), I've been on the server testing.

 

I ran back and forth on the cost a lot, got three messages.

 

"My heart beats faster than is normal"

"My body feels numb"

"I feel l'm about to soil my pants"

 

No joke.

 

I don't have the time to run around anymore, maybe someone else will continue the testing? It is rather interesting, I must say.

 

I'll be back tomorrow with my little bag of suspensions, play nice.

 

 

EDIT:

I can confirm it was stable branch. There was me, two others, and about five clan guys in there.

That's what I thought too. The server itself having some experimental branch files. Weird, but that would explain how bugged it turned out to die from a heart attack without even being tired.

He just confirmed what people have been telling you..

Your physical activity caused it..

Yet, since you were looting a small town.. you dismiss the idea that you know, you actually had to get there.. which involves physical activity..even when looting you still have to move around...

You're the jerk.
