Khanarac 252 Posted July 3, 2014 He is dead, you cant defib a dead person. Otherwise people wouldn't die...anyway, what the hell is that "use" function for? :D seems pointless. This isn't Casino Royale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted July 3, 2014 Defibrillators are for people who still have a pulse but are unconscious. You can't revive dead people with it. I think the game wanted you to stay on top of the stairs and apply it there, it would then have given you the message that it can't be used on dead people. I have also heard the theory of the red chain appearing when other players are near, but I am not convinced by it. At least I have encountered other players countless times where no red chain ever appeared. On the other hand if you travel the same route numerous times you will notice that the red chain pops up much the same places, which I interpret to mean when the character cross from one partition of the map to another, and that this is much the most frequent way that the red chain appears on screen.

On 99% red chain appear when: a) Some player entered your bubble very fast (witin 300-500m or closer) by sprinting in and overload of bandwidth exchange started. b) Some player entered your bubble very fast by spawning within 300-500m from you and overload of bandwidth exchange started. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you see a red chain, check your player name on the list and see if you have 100000 desync. If so, check the list and see if another player has 100000 desync, if so, 99% chance that this player is in your "vicinity". (Like Frosti said.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonedwards05@gmail.com 29 Posted July 4, 2014 Oh right, yeah I wasn't 100% sure about the reviving of a dead person, but it was worth a try! We both ended up spawning near Berezino again so we got our gear back, no loss of anything. And I'm just going by what Sacriel says, that's how I found out about the red desync. Thanks for watching guys :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
