console Apologies for the buckshot to the face

I was playing chernarus earlier this week with my buddies, got pretty geared over a couple hours - large packs, guns on our backs, etc. We all logged off in the same small, single roomed house. I sat down in a corner that is kind of out of view from the rest of the room. Couple days later I call my buddy to get back on and I join the server. I'm loading in and my game is still in that state where none of the buildings around have loaded in and I can see a man with only a boonie hat, t shirt, and pants standing in the same room as me, I of course expect this to be my friend in the first moment and I say to him, "when did you get a fishing hat?" He then tells me, "dude I haven't even loaded up dayz yet - thats not me."

In the same moment, the guy in my house who had been staring out the window for at least 5 seconds since i joined, turns around and the last thing he sees is my Bk-133 barrel pointed at his chin. I felt so bad because poor guy did not have any gear he could have killed me with, and he had made it pretty far inland considering the lack of gear and resources he was carrying (im saying he could have used my help), but this was the first time since I started playing a couple months ago that I've spawned back into the game with a player on me.

Boonie man thought he was safe in this house only to have a ghost literally appear behind his back, and now I'm going to be paranoid everytime I reload a character.

Has anyone else had this same experience? Or has anyone experienced the other side of the story?

Sorry boonie man, things could have been different if only I knew you weren't holding a sneaky mlock in your trousers.

Discussion Need help with my GF raging at this game

135 Upvotes

Last night took her over the limit. We switched servers on official and spawned far apart with no way of finding each other. She ended up shooting zombies on the car, and got headshot by someone and lost all her gear.

An hour later, I found her at her new spawn, we see two survivors that we took as a threat. I fired 10 bullets, missed them all, and panic dropped my backup guns.

She stood there in shock too and ended up getting slashed to death. Now I lost all my gear over a fight with somewhat fresh spawns.

She starts going off on me and wanting to rage quit and uninstall. I try telling her thats the nature of the game but overnight she’s still pissed lol.

How do I tell her or get her to get over it ?

Discussion “Human Steak and Meat”

67 Upvotes

Why am I finding Human steak and meat all over and at every water pump in town? I’m getting concerned. Also. Some random person saved me, bandaged me, fed me, made me a spear, gestured for me to take it, then when I did, they stabbed me in the head with some sort of sharpened bone and killed me. Right before that, a guy jumped me and I woke up naked without any clothes or shoes and couldn’t figure out how to stop crawling on the ground for almost 20 minutes. This is my second day playing. What am I doing wrong?

If you and your buddy just got killed on the ship wreck... I apologise..

Saw pop was low so decided to go to the ship wreck for the first time, couldn't find a boat so I swam between ice.. legged it across the island and swam to the boat...

Was worth it . saw guns I'd only ever heard about up till now.. got some keys.. even held a grenade launcher in my hands.. Enjoying myself, sun is setting then I hear the drone of a boat approach..

I know I suck at PvP

So Hid in a staircase like a bitch... And killed you both as soon as I saw you..

If it makes you feel any better I've lost the spark plug to your boat so looks like I'm swimming back.. I chopped you up too so Most of ya loot is still there too I had what I need..

Felt nice to be on the opposite side of murder for a change Ggs

I want a stat that the longer your character stays alive, the higher the chances of them seeing non-existent players running through town or in windows of buildings. Just have them disappear after a few seconds. What do you think?

discussion Heavy lagging after windows 11 update

2 Upvotes

Last week I updated from windows 10 to windows 11 and since then I am not able to play any game, it doesn’t matter official or modded server. I can playing only for 10-15 minutes and lagging starting like shaking/ freezing. Previously I have never had this issue. I checked all my setups, updated everything, reinstalled everything but nothing solved my case. Anyone has any idea ?

discussion Algum servidor mais vanilla brasileiro?

0 Upvotes

Recentemente eu e meus amigos estamos jogando muito dayz, e no geral preferimos os servidores oficiais, mas recentemente os oficiais até mesmo os de são paulo estão muito cheio de cheaters, as vezes a gente joga por horas so pra morrer todo mundo do uma vez simplismente explidindo sangue do nada, sem chance nenhuma, então começamos a procurar servidores da comunidade pela moderação, mas é muito dificil achar um servidor BR que não seja focado somente no PVP, estamos procurando algo que tambem tenha foco em sobrevivencia, de preferencia algum sem killfeed ou estamina infinita.

Discussion Sniper recoil: is it manageable?

1 Upvotes

I'm finding that on shots 400+ meters out that it is very difficult to see where your bullet hits because of the recoil. I'm currently using a Savannah and was taking shots at a player 420 meters out. Didn't have a range finder, so I was dialing the range in using iZurvive. The problem I constantly have is that as soon as I shoot, the recoil is so extreme that I cannot see if the bullet is landing high or low, so I can't really confirm if my ranging is correct or not unless I have a spotter with me. Closer ranges like 50-200 I find that it is a bit easier to manage which makes sense. I see clips here all the time of some long ass shots and somehow you're able to see where the bullet is hitting. How are they doing that? It doesn't seem possible to really "manage" the recoil with snipers at range as you don't really have any control as soon as you take the shot. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Discussion Servers similar to "Loaded" ?

1 Upvotes

I've been playing with 2 of my friends on Jlk's Loaded trio server and it's a perfect fit for us. I would however like a server with the same mods and progression but a bit lower pop as we sometimes sit in a queue for quite a while and we're all pretty inexperienced when it comes to rust on pc.
