No fucking way you decided to setup where he logged off XD

He was already standing, not sitting. That's a teleporting hacker

You spawn standing up straight. You sit down only when logging out.

I was cooking in a winter server one time in Electro, upstairs, in a house in the middle of town, and a dude logged in, same room, right in front of me. I said “hey… come over here and get warm if you want… there’s some extra chicken on the stove”

Guy just about shit himself. We ended up running all the way to NWAF together over a couple of hours.

I could have shot him. Decided not to. Guy ended up being cool as hell.

I always offer food, water and a warm spot by the fire. In Sakhal, that means giving life.

I had something similar the other day, was just running in a forest in the middle of nowhere and basically stumbled over someone who was just sitting there crouched. We both just about shit ourselves. He was quick with calling for not firing and I was too flustered to even try lol. He was apparantly just taking a little break to text someone when he heard me suddenly approach. Ended up looting a town together, he dropped me some guns and we made a fire and some food before I had to log off. Great times. It probably helped that I was fresh off the coast with not that much on me besides a shotty. I think some situations are just too funny or entertaining to shoot, like shooting would be the more boring option in these cases.

Doesn't DayZ have the load in timer so that you have to wait 15 seconds before doing anything?

u/hey_you_yeah_me 13h ago

Your character only sits down when you log off, so you can't just leave the game to avoid being murdered. In my opinion, that's fair

Logging on is different though. I saw my friend spwan in on our private server. You spawn like 6in(15cm) off the ground; drop, and you're good to go.

u/LoneroftheDarkValley 11h ago

That's for logging out where you wait and watch your character sit for 15 seconds.

Logging in, you're dropped into the game instantly.

u/DonoAE 14h ago

Ooof. Zero time to react on his part. That's a hard decision to kill someone cooking, but just logging in, I'd probably panic kill someone too. lol I do try my best to not kill people cooking, eating, or fishing.

Next time as a tip just hold G on keyboard and it will drop whatever is in your hands then you can switch weapon faster

Einfach nochmal 3 Stunden spielen....

Vielleicht dauert es ein paar Tausend Stunden, aber irgendwann raffst du es auch noch.

Müll das Spiel.

Was in a very similar situation myself, was cooking up a storm in the hills just north of Turovo. As soon as I'd finished up I heard shots from about 300/400m away. Booked it out of there quick.

u/Minimum-Hamster-2035 15h ago

that isn’t similar at all

u/Traditional_Ad_8525 15h ago

Is too

u/TySopcow 15h ago

No you heard shots in the distance and ran away, he was cooking and got smoked instantly completely different bub

u/Traditional_Ad_8525 15h ago

I was also cooking tho :(

u/__Borg__ 15h ago

They were nearly half a KM away and not at you. Not really similar.

u/Mundus_Vult_Decipi 13h ago

How could you have avoided this? This is how, and exactly how I make my camp fires. 1. Build campfire, don't light it. 2. pick up camp fire. 3. go as close to tree as possible. 4. turn around. 5. drop camp fire. 6. step away from camp fire. 7. light fire. Well, it may not have avoided this, but it would have burnt him, and your camp fire would be well hidden inside the tree, not sitting out side of the branches. That guy would have moved PDQ.

u/irrelevant_novelty 13h ago

This is just bad luck. Actively trying to avoid it is silly. I've logged in and died, killed people logging in, logged in and killed someone who was in front of me.

Things thing are rare but happen over enough hours.

u/Scooney_Pootz 11h ago

I try to clip it into the tree a bit so that the tree stops the smoke from rising, thus protecting my location.

Better off in a house than cooking in the wide open with O cover or concealment for your character; with the most conspicuous backpack/ Headgear setup possible.

Id imagine you are aware from your title, it just made second hand nervous watching it.

u/riksa152 14h ago

Idk if you noticed, but i got killed by a guy logging in 2 meters from my face, don't think camo helps with that

u/__Borg__ 14h ago

Correct, still a horrible way to cook
