Where is everybody?

So I just bought and installed Dayz... The game opens. Servers load, I connect to a server and the gameplay is going fine. No error of any sort. Heres the problem... There's no one else in the game! Not a Soul. Even though the server says to have 39 people in it. Whats the deal?

Well, it's a pretty big map? Maybe they are somewhere else, over the next hill, in a forest, in some other town?

Really Max? Don't be ridiculous....I would venture to bet they are all hiding in the tree line watching your every move, waiting for the perfect opportunity to pounce!

Seriously though, you'll run into someone soon enough if you keep playing on high pop servers, and when you do, they will either shoot you on sight, or offer you some food and water....

 

One bit of advice for ya though, if they are offering you a whole zucchini, run for your life and do NOT look back...better to die on yer feet than to....uhh...live on yer knees...

believe me when I say, I don't make this stuff up...........................

No.. really. There's no one here. I type in the chat... no response. Nothing. Its like I'm in an empty game.

You can't text chat with people unless they are close to you. Think of it as speaking, for those who don't have a mic.
