Description

Was watching a short series of YouTube videos of a brand new player to DayZ SA, a player who was mentioned and linked in the most recent Community Spotlight as "never played DayZ and going in blind".

His latest video in the series (linked below) was recorded, like his entire short series, on an EU Official server. He was backed into a corner by zeds a few times, the 2 to 3 first times, the zeds stopped attacking while pressing him up against the corner, confused he didn't know what to do, and eventually struck and killed them as they stood still, literally embedded inside his body (I'm sure against his will and without written authorization 🤔).

The video ended by him getting again, pressed up into a wall, and this time, got stuck in an animated state, unable to drop his empty pistol, unable to hit a hotkey to pull a melee weapon, unable to jump or unstuck himself.... the 2 zeds continued to strike him, giving him multiple lacerations, and clearly surpassing the point of himself "should've" being knocked unconscious, and instead, killed standing up, stuck.

Normally I'd laugh it off, DayZ being DayZ and all, still wondering why we can't add burlap to our rifles or chopping down a tree with our still missing chainsaw or boating over to our promised Utes Island on our promised boat, helicopter, or airplane.....but he was brand new to DayZ, me being made aware of him through the Community Spotlight, and him also being killed by a hacker/scripter on EU Official in his 2nd ever DayZ SA video...so I felt obligated to turn in a bug report for him (not like anything missing or promised has made it back or been added in any significant manner, but hey, he's new and doesn't know this yet).

Anyway, if you guys get around to reading this, here's the link to the video, it's literally in the last minute he dies by the strange zeds/bug.

Official, back into corner with zeds attacking, wait and see what happens I suppose?

Additional Information

Link to his upload ↓ last minute of footage for the zed kill, otherwise, 2nd video in his series I believe showed the obvious hacking death (I tried warning him not to touch Official servers as nobody at DayZ or BI cares about keeping them clean, but he's new, so obviously didn't understand)
