Recommended Posts

This happend to me twice today. When i log into a server i instantly die with a broken bone. Then i respawn without ANY loot. Not even a back pack. But when i respawn i am still wearing my camo?!

Has anyone else encountered this bug?

Has been happening to me a lot as well since 1.7.2.6.

Will try downgrade/upgrade thing. Cryptex, this is really easy to do if you use dayZ commander.

Simply click on "install/update" at the top of your main window, and you can select your dayZ version from a popdown menu. Then click "install".

Guys I have an easy fix for when this happens. It works even for those who can't run DayZ Commander (it never works on my system for installing/uninstalling).

Force quit immediately

Don't hit any buttons, don't respawn. You're not actually dead - but if you 'respawn', it will teleport you to the coast, but won't give you new stats and starter gear because you're did not die.

Just reconnect to another server and you'll almost always be fine. If you still die there, then you're probably in a bad location - try it a few more times, then try force-quitting during the loading process. Eventually you'll either load in where you were (at which point you need to MOVE), or on the beach (no big deal).

Just remember, as long as you don't respawn, you won't actually lose your stuff. I've seen people re-log for 15 minutes to fix this and they were still fine.

In that case I would go to remedial action the first time around - force quit, try to re-log, force-quit during loading, then try again.

There just seems to be certain parts of the map that have varying chances of killing you when you log in.
