>mfwnorespawn 4 Posted July 30, 2012 So about maybe an hour ago i was walking around Chenro in BRA1. Suddenly the server turned to nighttime and it started raining. I then proceeded to get teleported to the middle of nowhere outside the map along with everyone else in the server. Then everyone got their legs broken and inventorys wiped. A few people started shooting everyone with winchesters, I'm not sure if these were hackers or people who didnt have their inventories wiped. I snuck up behind one of them, removed the hachet from my toolbelt (Which remained intact) and hacheted him. In hindsight I should've let him kill me but I will get to that in a sec. When I tried to open his inventory there was nothing there and my hachet disappeared. Then i noticed some headlights up ahead driving towards everyone. The man in the GAZ started running over everyone as they were trying to crawl away. In hindsight i should've let him run me over so I could respawn, but more on that later. I managed to hide behind a tree and the guy stopped as he hit the tree, i managed to jump into the back of the GAZ. He started driving around and then tried to hide the car in a pine tree, It appears he didnt see me get into his car, so i proceeded to get into the drivers seat and run him over. I started driving around looking for civilization and ran out of gas. I then rememebered that the respawn button was disabled so here i was, in the middle of nowhere with broken legs and nothing in my inventory with no way to get back to civilization. My only option was to wait and die from starvation. I changed servers and I was lucky enough to see that my inventory was restored. I luckily had a stick of morphine and a map so I was able to join a recruit server and use it t find the nearest town and heal my legs. But what about all those people who werent so lucky and are probably still crawling around outside of the map with no way to respawn.The game is an alpha there needs to be a way to reset your character in the event somthing like this happens. This hacking tactic will be abused until the respawn button comes back. Hackers will teleport people outside the map and essentially prevent them from playing the game because they cant respawn. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bambo (DayZ) 42 Posted July 30, 2012 thread about respawn button #34 (maybe)...let the zombies kill you, why does everyone find that difficult?Because when you're in the middle of fucking nowhere, there aren't any. Have you played this game before?Also, props to the OP. Sounds like you had quite the will to live. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which isn't part of the game. I'm finally glad they took the button out. To many fully geared accidentally hitting it. . people spamming it till they loaded where they wanted to be. .I'm sorry you got hit by a hacker. . . and people should know that killing in debug forest is a no-no. . . but because hackers are in the game is no reason to put a game breaking mechanic back into the game. . . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momiji 46 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) If you get hacker ported, ALT-F4 or Abort right away. No shame in doing it when a hacker is about,Debug spawns/log ins are automatically placed to the coast now by the way . I know because i logged out at Elektro and loaded back in at the coast next session.And complimentary."Name" was Killed."Name" was Killed."Name" was Killed."Name" was Killed.

dontblamecows 5 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) It affects server performance, that is why it was taken out. If you were teleported to debug wasteland, just exit out of the game and re-enter, you will be teleported to the coastline.Also please consider using paragraphs.

tagg 13 Posted July 30, 2012 I'm finally glad they took the button out. To many fully geared accidentally hitting it. . people spamming it till they loaded where they wanted to be. .... they could have simply added a 'are you sure you want to respawn? Yes, No' option to prevent fully geared accidents.as for spamming it till they got where they wanted to be... why is that bad? lol... if your trying to group up with a buddy in OATmeal... and you just spawned in kamenka.... you have either a good 30+ minute run... just to group up (and odds are you will be killed long before you make it there) or you can hit respawn and possibly see 'Elektro' or Cherno.. WOOT! you just saved yourself 30m or more... by using 1-3 minutes hitting respawn and reloading in.it does not provide a player with an 'unfair advantage' to keep respawning till they get near where they are hoping to be.... as everybody else can do the same thing lol... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
>mfwnorespawn 4 Posted July 30, 2012 It wasnt neccessarily the Debug forest because we got Teleported to the north by Grozovoy Pass. So I'm assuming everyone got teleported to 000000. The only way I know this is because I joined a recruit server that allows you to use your map as a GPS. So the teleport to coastline thing wont work in this instance.

WOOT! you just saved yourself 30m or more... by using 1-3 minutes hitting respawn and reloading in.And you make the load times longer for everyone else and cause the server to desync and delay wasting everyone elses time because your time is more important.Removal was necessary since it was in the game to assist with game breaking bugs like the rocks and trees breaking your legs or getting stuck, not for you to get the best spawn.

Sloi 6 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Paragraphs, dude.Seriously, I would have gladly read your opening post, but that wall of text is abhorrent.Believe it or not, some of the things you're "forced" to learn in high school (like sentence structure and composition) are actually useful in a real-world environment.

omgwtfbbq (DayZ) 1069 Posted July 30, 2012 Yes, let the zombies kill you when you've been teleported outside the map and there are no zombies.if you have a can, there is a glitch where you can kill yourself with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For that matter... how do you know the person even speaks english as their primary language?! (which would make the post quite acceptable lol) they could be trying their best to provide their feedback/opinion in a language not of their own, and simply forgot to hit the enter button due to their natural language being read backwards or forwards or up or down! how many languages have you tried to learn well enough to post on a forum?!*cough*...in closing... how do you know that the OP is old enough to have actually attended High School english lessons? =P... ^_^ :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cooperal 16 Posted August 1, 2012 Then everyone got their legs broken and inventorys wiped.The respawn button is enabled if you fracture your bones. It's in the patch notes. And at least one other post in this thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Udak 104 Posted August 1, 2012 The respawn button is enabled if you fracture your bones. It's in the patch notes. And at least one other post in this thread.As someone who died recently, I can loudly exclaim that two days ago, that was not true. I think I remember reading that it has since been re-enabled for broken bones, but when .4 launched, there was no bone-break exception. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
