What has been your biggest "I'm done" moment?

[nebuuuu 11]

I`ve never had that breaking point.
Even in the mod and when heavy bugs like random-broken legs etc. wheren`t nice to play with. But on the standalone-version, i`m happy to loot, meet other players (but i must admit, it`s not very often because of KoS from them) and see the new things after patches.

Of course, deeper content like basebuilding (tents, fireplace = 100% persistence would be a first step), also cars (or old bicycles would be nice) is more important to me as to hang on stuff and be mad if i lose them to hackers, glitches/bugs, better/luckier players etc.pp.

So no "i`m done for me"-moment in my case, but i bet this will come when the loot and stuff will be getting more important (persistance) and a bug, hacker, whatever hits me. :)
I really hope (for this game, the fans and the hard work of the dev-team), that the game development moves faster forward next year, to hold the interests of the players and in view of the competition of the genre.

yeah, but that`s not the topic here.

have great day guys, cu

Everytime I lose my axe.

When my game crashes and then, when logging back in the same server...I'm a fresh spawn

[Dagwood 680]

When I have an easy kill on a highly geared player and fuck it up. I get really excited and take my only shot out of my chambered pistol and he turns around and blaps me in the dome. Definitely led to some angry chain smoking in the past.

Also, had a friend whose 3pp character never died until wipe (6months?). We were meeting up. I was running with a rando between NEAF and krasnostav. My friend told me he was at "the airfield" and I assumed it was NWAF.

I saw a guy kneeling in some bushes and shot him in the back of the head with my SKS. My friend immediately says "I just got shot. I'm unconscious".

Panic mode engaged, I turn and unload the rest of my clip into the rando I was with. I run over to my friend an administer medical treatment. He barely survived. I quit for about a week after that one.

[AmazingAussie 38]

Was fully geared with a gas mask and gorka helmet. Was on top of a building, switched to my pistol... kept walking and then fell off to my death.

a few days ago when i was trying to meet up with a friend and realized there had been a magnetic pole reversal only after he reached the coast (i was in Novy Sobor)

[Qiwik 7]

Froze to death while running fully dry clothed in bright weather and trying to find a matchbox. Back in the mod we would catch an illness first.

Just lost a first flashbang, otherwise it would be a usual "ladder" death.

[Barbosa1955 15]

Nothing really made me rage quit...yet. Got pretty pissed off on so many occasions, though...to many to list here. But what's going to be a deal breaker with this game is taking way to long to get 100% persistence. Having tents is great. But having to pick them up every Tuesday night and losing all the stash I've picked up for the week is getting real old. Planting gardens 4 times per month is getting old.

Having the Devs give us a multitude of ways to kill each other is fine and dandy.

Eventually, I'll rage over what I perceive is the Devs priorities are different than mine...which is a survival oriented game...that won't let me keep the things I've striven for to survive on a long term basis.

With 930 hours into this game and nothing to show for it is enough reason to rage...let alone quit.

[TheWizard14 372]

I was running around in the Novo tower with decent gear and a AKM, then some lagging gaylord comes and hatchets me. I kill him but I bleed out and die.

I've almost done that 3 times now, my heart races everytime

[CJFlint 357]

Pretty much now days I check the logs every patch and look at the changes plus known bugs. One thing I will say is much of the time, the game killer bugs are known issues and will be listed. So if your aware of them ahead of times they will not harm you. Also some servers are pretty bad with high ping, if you log onto them it will have desync, or its just glitching as all hell....don't stay on it. Dont just keep playing on it. Find another one, save your self the head ache early.. Theres a host of problems that happen on laggy servers. Shit like not being able to switch weapons, use items or pick them up, or a zombie hitting you from 20 feet away ruining your crap. It happen on crappy servers.

 he points the gun at me and i kill him.

"you got kicked from the game"

 

 

I could see this happening on the mod, with the verbose logs and in-game kill messages. But how can a SA server renter admin, identify you as the killer?

[E.T. (DayZ) 1]

I am so sick of being killed by the game engine. Seriously, its been long enough that these basic bugs should NOT exist in the game. Example. Tonight, I was on a balcony of an apartment building, I was crouched. I selected my mosin and the animation of selecting the weapon appears to have flung me out off the balcony. I'm so over this kind of BS. How many people are working on this game that has racked in SOoooo much money? FIX IT FFS

When a game of my squad is ruined by another cheater for a third time in a row.

[saamohod 45]

Two days ago. I was pretty much fully decked out in gear -- all the essentials plus some good stuff: full TTSKO, gorka w/ visor, green balcavara, AKM w/ 2 drum mags + suppressor and scope, range finder, high cap vest... the list goes on. Anyways I run up the stairs in one of the military style prison buildings and decide to check the loot pile behind the stairwell. I'm standing there for about 5 seconds when suddenly my screen shakes and I read "My leg is extremely painful". I check my desync, it's zero. About two seconds later, my screen goes black and I read "You are dead". Nobody was on the server at the time, I wasn't lagging (at least noticeably) in any way, and as I said my desync was zero. I have no explanation for what happened other than an entirely random death, but man that was rough. 

An old and a well-known bug when your legs take damage when you are located in certain locations above ground level.

[Karmaterror 982]

Havent had one in the SA yet because not really as much of a timesink as the mod was. But back in the mod I had a camp up formonths....heli couple cars 4 or 5 fully stocked tents, even started adding barbed wire and sandbags for asthetics. We truly believed no one would ever find it.....

 

We log in one day and all gone, tents cars even the heli. They must have takenages moving itall and that feeling of all those months worthof errort just vanishing was painfull.

 

At first I wanted to quit, then I thought no!....that stuff is still out there somewhere, I just gotta find it. About a week later I found all my stuff in a forrest on the opposite side of the map. I called in my 2 buddies and we lay in wait at a time we usually didn't play. Low and behold in they log 4 of them. We check the player list to ID them and then end them from about 600m out and relocate all the gear again.

 

Cant wait till these little clan war./ vendetta things start  happening in SA :D

[aasand 92]

Every time i get killed by hackers or the engine just decides to kill me. Quick mod-team! I mentioned that there are hackers in the game! Hide hide!

[PongoZ 127]

Not in stand alone, development has seemed slow in the past but quite impressive of late, I never get attached to characters anyway.

Some of the hacking in the mod days was severe, but I just stuck to white list servers for the most part.

[john5220 15]

My biggest I am done moment was when I realized how time consuming DayZ is and how important other things and like goals in real life was.

 

That moment was yesterday when I deleted DayZ. I have no regrets, it was a beautiful experience that I will surely miss. I stick to arcade shooters like Black Ops 2 and CS GO now a get in and out quickly experience. I even built a new PC for DayZ but in the end I had to accept my loss, I cannot let it consume me so I deleted it for the greater good.

[JT111 23]

I have so many it's rediculous.

#1 Recently I was in a room with some loot on the floor, I moved to a clear spot and put my gun on the floor to change my weapon and some gear around and the gun dissapeared, I searched the whole building inside and out for it, logged off the server and came back into it and searched again, the gun was gone, it was an AKM with PSO1 and 75rnd drum mag...took me a long time to find and gear up that gun...so maddening.

#2 I shot at a guy 20 yrds from me with an AKM and emptied my 30 round mag and didnt hit him once...really..then he runs up to me and hits me with his axe...im dead.

#3 The Mosin point of aim is so far off if you dont have the range set right....it's like these idiot devs have never shot a Russian Mosin Nagant before...and they are Russian....I own 4 of em.

I should be able to set my sights for 200 yards and shoot at someone 400yards away and easily hit them just by setting my aim point a few inches high on my target....instead the bullet magically flies 4 feet over my target somehow defying the laws of physics.

#4 I could go on and on

[Mookie (original) 799]

Aside from the glitches we all experience (put M4 down on floor, M4 vanishes, the falling through the floor bug, etc), my "I'm done [until Beta]" moment will probably be when my current char dies. I've had him since the start of the 0.49 wipe - three and a half months ago. He's pretty much as geared up as any player has ever been, and it's been damn hard work, scavenging, fighting, trading, and running. Jesus H Corbett, the running. We're talking thousands of miles here.

 

It doesn't really matter how he dies, though I'd rather not lose him to a wipe. I think at that point it would just be psychologically good for me to give the game a rest tbh.

[Gank Moody 12]

Just got killed on top of the factory in Cherno.

 

Had a character for a while and thought i would head back towards to coast to do a little PVP. First server i am in I manage to make it up to the top without any shots fire. 2 mins later appears a fresh spawn punching me. I kill him a log since he would probably be back any minute. Next server i get in clean get prone and find my bearings. i see a few guys semi geared guys I can hear them talking about how "I am on top of the factory". Some how they car see me laying a top and I get shot by a shotgun. I am watching the ladder no one can come up. Then boom i'm dead and Hear hear in direct chat. "Don't worry I jumped up and got him" then all his gay little friends going "good job" and he starts looting me and says "when I jumped up here I broke my legs good thing he has morphine" 

 

Sigh..... all i wanted was a good ol'fashion firefight and all i get is a hacking kiddie and his buddies killing me like i was nothing. How can the devs let this happen? how are we suppose to test this game when we don't stand a chance against these guys. Seems like this game promotes hackers since they don't do a damn thing to fix them.

[xImFriendly 10]

On my first character I managed to end up in Zelenogorsk fully geared, Camo + mosin and long range scope, the server had 8 people on, I saw a unarmed player, I approached him doing the friendly dance and he ran, so I backed off and saw another man, I realized he was trying to shoot the other guy but couldn't tell if he had good for sure because of the sun, I ran Towards him with my loaded mosin, he pointed his gun at me so I clicked my mouse, click click, my pristine gun didnt shoot, so I ran past him and turned around to hear a shot, then you are dead. Really sad death as it was my first character and only my second day playing and I put close to 10 hours in that character

[JohnMcClane 19]

The rampant hackers are killing it for me. Fully geared character I'd been playing for over a month. AK101 w/ six mags and a sup. with a full kit.

 

My group was inside a building with no windows and closed doors when I heard three suppressed shots, then all three of us were dead.
