In this game you need to pay attention to your surroundings 100% of the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BahamutxD (DayZ) 0 Posted August 10, 2012 Exe the game from STEAM (if you have non-steam version, add shortcut etc..)Make sure you can access STEAM overlay.Press W and when you want to leave it running, press the key to open STEAM overlay (preferably if it's just 1 key, some key boards won't accept so many buttons pressed at once)Magically your character will be still running. To cancel run, hit W again. You can do this with any action. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jex =TE= (DayZ) 218 Posted August 10, 2012 How about finally coding the fucking thing into the game BIS like we've been asking for the LAST 10 YEARS! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swineflew 480 Posted August 10, 2012 How about finally coding the fucking thing into the game BIS like we've been asking for the LAST 10 YEARS!I agree. I've been asking games to play themselves for years and for some reason game companies want us to PLAY them, it's weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
