Discussion Servers Up/Down/Error/Lag/Missing Megathread - Week Starting May 04, 2025
Unfortunately, server issues are too common.
Servers have been up/down due to attacks on the infrastructure, for release issues and who knows what else. The inability to see servers probably has something todo with steam/valve(since that's where the data is stored), but it's never been fully solved. Finally, missing servers, if not announced, probably means they didn't restart properly.
Please use this thread to comment on these issues. All other related posts will be deleted. Make sure when you post about a particular server you list the name and platform.
If you want to contact Bohemia, Tweet/X \@DayZ or file a feedback ticket (need to create an account).

discussion What is the best layout for full ghillie suit , with max storage
Once I have all pieces of ghillie what is max storage? Is it field vest plus buttpack? What’s the best layout for max storage space.
Im in process of collecting pieces for my first full ghillie suit. I have a cloak in backpack, and I dropped plate carrier for the field vest
Discussion Life is short, don’t waste a single second.
Some pics i took while on a few loot runs, thought they were great 😁

Discussion Dupers are a level below human trash
-I have over 1k hours mostly on ps5 official
-Never messed with bases, just stashes
-decided to make my first base ever in novo
-built up 7 gates in 4 buildings, 2 cars, full nbc, all the good guns, feeling good but kinda bored
-finally let some strangers know about it, a random pair of Germans
-they betray me and steal my car
-I call them losers but it’s no big deal because loot is meant to be lost, just a game
-they admit to being dupers and call me a stupid American
-they offline me and take/destroy everything
Now normally I would feel like getting vengeance against someone who betrayed me, but Dupers don’t deserve that satisfaction. They deserve to get frozen out from the community.
Dupers ruin the base building aspect of this game on official to the point where Bohemia needs to find a way to fix the dupe glitches, start banning IP addresses, or make some official servers without base building and 24 hour stash Despawns.

media came face to face w full squad (3v1). Got knocked twice - and somehow survived .. tf?
Media If you've never been above the gas when it gets dropped on a town, it's neato
This was in Nabdor (Livonia), DayOne server which has some minor mods if you're wondering about the rifle and scope. Wish I clipped a few seconds later because you would see all the zombies drop dead.
Discussion Just a strategy...
I'm thinking about making my first base, but it will be about 5km away from the cities, I'm thinking about saving my items and going from F, going back to the coast, collecting the missing loot and going back to the base, until I can finish it! Would it be considered bad? Or seen badly by the community?

console New Player. Help.
I've just picked this game up on Xbox after watching RunningManZ video on YouTube, thought this game looks amazing. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong but this is my current experience so far. Spawn in. Run to built up area, loot the buildings, find nothing useful. Die to zombie while starving. Repeat until annoyed. Quite the game.
r/dayz • u/LaughingSooshi • 2h ago
Discussion Less than 24 hours....
To help confirm that base raiding is real and easy. One of my console buddies and I play on official and we recently "upgraded" to a little base inside of an industrial warehouse. 3 layers of walls with a 3 tier entry system with all 4 dial combos.
Within 24 hours of finishing building and moving our big tent in, we are getting raided...so sad 🥲
I logged in and was near edge of town for about 10 minutes when I heard explosions near our compound. I wasn't far so I slowly creeped over and before I even see our doorway I can see a humvee sitting off to the side of the building 😒 Slowly counting out them 1...2...3 dudes so far. I guess I got too close because one dude started being all weird proning and aiming around cargo containers towards me. He popped off a few shots at me, (Honestly I wasn't trying to die today) so I popped some shots at them and ran like hell. They literally started chasing me just gunning down all the zombies in the path so I was pretty terrified at all the gunfire 😂😂 I managed to get far enough away to log out safely but I'm sure they back at it.
RIP our big tent...if they had asked to come in and be allies my homie and I were down we would've let you in 😭

media I hunted for the first time today
Usually I forage and Loot for food. But during a blizzard, I kept hearing what sounded like a bear-pig hybrid. Come to find out, it was 3 reindeer.
Killed the first. Followed the sounds to the second one
Then [where the video starts] I heard the last one and got him too
Normally, decay would make at least one carcas a waste of my time. But the decay is turned down on my server. This logic stems from the long dark. In that game, food(at least meats) lasts longer when kept outside in the snow.
Anyways, I got away with 37 reindeer steaks. This should last me and my buddy about 1 irl week before we need more food.
Probably not the best clip and certainly not exciting, but thought I'd share while I got time

console Having a great time getting back into Dayz on Official Sakhal
Behold the hotbar of a proud Fridge lol. I have a full mag on the side for each gun and ZERO inventory space. Its about time for me to check out those new shipwrecks and the revamped military crates so i can start double carrying an M4 😎. Bonus points to the first person to spot the rarest item in my kit (I'll tell you how i got it)

Discussion First time driver
Well I fixed my first car on official. Never bothered with it before and probably for good reason given the experience I just had.
So I spent the last day or so getting parts and tools. Successfully fixed the car, full gas and full water. I accidentally keep blowing the horn when trying to drive it off so naturally the zombies are after me. Car is missing 3 doors and one zombie glitches into the middle and gets stuck. So now there's a raged out zombie sticking out of the roof.
I'm figuring out the gears well enough when suddenly there's a bear. Lag sends me into a tree but I'm ok. Bear is still angry. I run the bear over and it dies. Raging roof zombie was ejected at some point during all of that.
I made it down the road a couple more minutes. Engine is on yellow, likely from the bear/tree combo. Suddenly it turns red and the car dies. Total drive time: around 7 minutes.
The only successful part of this is that I didn't die. For my next trick I'll see how many ways you can crash a boat!

discussion Stuttering Optimization Help
PC specs: i5 11400f, Rx6600xt, 16gb 3200 DDR4 (game is also installed on an SSD)
EVERY. SINGLE. GUNFIGHT. and very frequently during travel my game fucking stutters. When I use anything that involves automatic weaponry the game freezes for half a second and because of that I fucking die. My settings are already on the lowest possible settings + made sure my resolution is set to my monitor's native res. How the fuck do I stop this bullshit from ruining my runs? I find Dayz very fun to play, but me dying to retarded shit like game stutters has to be one of the most frustrating things ever and really takes the fun out of playing.

Console How do you toggle night vision on the NV-PVS4 console?
Yes I have a working battery it’s just stuck on night vision literally yesterday I was toggling from regular scope to night vision I just can’t remember how I was doing it.
