Irish. 4886 Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) The combat log. Ive heard from the devs that a player who logs out, does not take shock or damage... but? Ive also heard that people are killing c-loggers, and people are "randomly" spawning on the coast after a brief encounter with a bandit shooting at them.. :P So? Which is it? 1. Do you take damage if you combat log, or simply log out, while your player is there for the 30 seconds?2. Or are you invincible, but your loot is "stealable" while you're logging out? Or are you and your loot untouchable? (I ask because after an encounter yesterday that could have ended in the other guy combat logging, as I had him pinned down pretty bad inside devils castle.. made me think what would have happened if he did as I have not experienced a c-logger yet) Edited March 16, 2014 by lrish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036 Posted March 16, 2014 You are there for 30 seconds. You can be shot and killed, looted, handcuffed, force fed rotten food/disinfectant etc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Irish. 4886 Posted March 16, 2014 Nah, just killed someone recently while loggin - where exactly did u "heard" that? Pretty sure I read it on a devblog, or patch note.. I have no clue though. It was an official post, I do remember that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouisK 85 Posted March 16, 2014 Pretty sure I read it on a devblog, or patch note.. I have no clue though. It was an official post, I do remember that.. You are partially correct, the devs stated that a bug where player remains did not receive shock or blood damage was fixed. I believe shock damage is given by melee and blood damage is well, bleeding out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Accolyte 1727 Posted March 16, 2014 Every time you log out, your character remains sitting down on the server for 30 seconds. During that time it is possible to do anything to your character. It can be killed, it can be handcuffed (which is essentially killing it), force fed, it can have its legs broken and so on. All of these statuses are saved and will affect your character the next time you respawn. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MetapoliC 263 Posted March 16, 2014 Would be great if that mysterious combat-logging would exist. 8/10 times I see how people log out instantly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
