hey i broke my leg how long does it take for this to heal or would it be better just starting over?

It does not heal. Find morphine in the hospital and fix it.

Then again, if you're far away from anything. The best thing to do is to start over.

Broken legs are the bane of under-equipped players.

Morphone fixes a broken leg.

You can get a broken leg without really losing any blood at all.

If you can find a medical tent or hospital near you, you shouldn't have any issues patching ur leg up.

Check www.dayzmap.info for a map that shows all the medical locations.

thanks and one other question, how do you party up with others?

[Sparks (DayZ) 14]

You walk up to them in game and ask them not to shoot you. Good luck with that though.

Yeah that's why one of the first priorities when starting a new life should always be to visit a hospital and find some of that fixer-up.

Finally decking out your character up north, and then getting your legs destroyed by zeds in some dump out in nowhereland because you were not paying attention for a split-second is a really crappy spot to be in. Because crawling for hours is not very much fun.

I wish broken legs would have a chance of getting an infection the longer the fracture is left untreated which then slowly kills you if you fail to administer morphine.

Btw, if you somehow manage to find a bicycle early on you may skip that whole morphine mumbo-jumbo. Appearently even broken legs are easily capable of accelerating your magic self-repairing bicycle to speeds up to 80 km/h. :D

You party up with other people outside of the game. In forums such as this one for example. Or with people you know personally. Trying to party up with unknowns that you just meet in-game will usually not end well for one of you. mostly you. It can be a refreshing experience from time to time if you're into that sort of thing.

Yeah I needed a blood transfusion, and the first two people I'd run into actually asked if I needed blood. So that really helped me out.

They probably just wanted to check your backpack. Then they saw you had nothing good on you so they decided to do a good deed for all the terrible things they did to other players in the last few days. Some sort of personal redemption so that those terrible nightmares stop. ;)

Honestly, would you still let them help you if you were decked out with high powered rifle, NVG, GPS etc?

Me personally, I'd stick to hunting cows and plucking feathers from chicken for my daily blood ration.
