    It's always on the coast, not the whole map. (Unless of course it's server specific) Also remember that if you disconnect, while alive and not being eaten by zombies, you will spawn in the location you disconnected from, on any server you go to.

    They were all mostly full, UK1 was broken yesterday and so was DE1 but the patch may have fixed them. I can play on any, probably better to pick a US one, and Chicago/Dallas seem to be the lowest pingers.

    What's you guyses mumble server so i can join

    I've heard of people doing that and apparently it works fine.

    I couldn't join. 5 hours later still trying to fix it woo.

    EDIT: Fixed it finally after quite a few patch/game reinstalls and some suggested fixes, oh well. I don't like night time, although I did find a map, compass and sniper then got killed by a load of zombies :<

    I'll probably try and make it to Zelenogorsk and log off and we can use that to meet up later.

    Edit; I was there once before and there is a good sized shop on the south side, there were good items in there.

    Here's the Online Map, members have highlighted areas etc for DayZ.

    http://www.maplib.net/map.php?id=14183

    Helps if you want a quick load, or a simple check on locations.

    With different locations from spawning if you haven't played before is quite annoying, and even harder if you are getting guided.

    I think I'm a bit too trusting in this mod, I keep getting shot in the face by people I intend to help out. :X

    Killed a couple of bandits so far, I didn't know what they looked like so they started shooting me first, but they sucked and died after I shot them lots in the head.

    I still don't really like night time :( Guess I'll need to find a torch in day light.

    Don't get torches, they are a waste of space. Change Gamma, Visibility, and Brightness levels for night time. I suggest using a glowstick, then picking it up to walk around with it if you are searching buildings, a red one is currently best due to seeing Green ones in the distance, keep with Red.

    Also, you should all hop on at the same time, I am currently teamed up with 8+ people, allowing us to do almost anything.

    I think that Balota Hangars should be our hideout / Meet up point. I'll be logging off there.

    John, Killermon, Pot Ducky and I are all at Starry Sober. We logged out there as the server was bugging out with spawns.

    Yeah Items are not spawning and zombies seem to disappear at random. Shame really as we were on quite a roll. Hopefully when we log back in there will be food at the supermarket. Otherwise i may die:(

    Why not just kill Teddi and cannibalize him?

    You can eat for years!
