CanOfTacticalBacon 0 Posted November 29, 2014 (edited) So, i have a story to tell. It was my first time getting looted finally making it to the military base from my long journey. Not sure why but i was being hit by a zombie which was not in the same building, sound wierd yet? It got worse. Once it was able to kill me it was still hitting me once i respawned some one tell me how to prevent this mess.

harteman 155 Posted November 29, 2014 I fix this by getting the hell out of the building it is happening in. Sometimes zombies get confused on where they are and where you are, and they start swinging and hitting you regardless. Best advice if this happens again, get out of the building immediately, and put at least 5 meters distance between you and that building. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish. 4886 Posted November 29, 2014 (edited) Make a report. A forum post in general discussion is a good place for advice, but not the best for getting issues fixed. Besides that, the best way to avoid this is kill every zed that aggros on you if you intend to stay anywhere near that area. If not, run.. far, far away..

therandomredstone 432 Posted November 29, 2014 You see i did that and ran around the whole entire building it was not in sightI love your name btw, stay active on these forums, don't let a name like that go to waste. ANYWAYS when my friend and I loot Berizino, Electro, Cherno, all the places, in the buildings with stairs, ALL THE TIME my friend is at the very top floor, getting hit by a zombie, and I'm at the bottom and he goes "WHERE THE HELL IS IT" and I say "where is what?' and he said "there's an invisible zombie hitting me" and on the staircase between the bottom floor and the 2nd floor, sure enough, there was a zed, hitting nothing, and hearing my friend cry as the zombie hits him with extreme telekinesis. Anyways I kill the zombie, problem solved, he's not getting hit anymore. So if that happens, HAUL ASS AND FIND THAT F**KER!!! Once the zed is dead. You can sleep better, and if you run more than 100 meters away from whatever place it all started, and you are STILL getting hit, then leave the game, and join back. Combat logging doesn't count for zombies, your body will still be there, still "despawning" but the zed wont attack it. So in worse casinaro, just leave the server and join back.. (that specific zed wont be aggroed towards you anymore, he will just sit there and look pretty, no matter HOW close you get)This game is in alpha, you have to learn how to troubleshoot right then and there. It's a skill you gotta learn, ESPECIALLY with this game.~Cheers! Stay Warm and Don't Lose Your Beans! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SwitchSL (DayZ) 17 Posted November 29, 2014 Zombies hold aggro for a very long time. It's not like the mod where you jumped in a bush and were safe. Out of sight does not equal out of mind in standalone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
