This has happened on several occasions where after opening DayZ through Steam. Sometimes, the game will automatically log me into the last server I was in. It just happened and I didn't notice. One of my friends told me that a zombie was beating up a person in my base. It was me since I changed to the game application and the screen said I was dead.

Event Timeline
Hello jvazquezjr and thank you for the report.
Are you playing in windowed mode by any chance? As we currently are aware of an issue due to which the game takes the inputs from the keyboard when player launches it and clicks onto the desktop (and does not click into the game window since the launch). Due to that it is possible that when player presses enter (for example to send a message through messaging program to someone), the enter is also registered in the game and will select the "PLAY" option, which places the player into the previous server.
I'm so sorry about the delay! I didn't realize the email being sent was a noreply. Yes! Every time I launch the game in 0.61, it starts off in a windowed mode that is offset from the center of the screen. I believe that is what happened. A couple days again, the same thing happened. I know how to avoid it though. Thank you so much and again I'm sorry for the delay!
