@Vitaliy Prulis/ @Billy Kruger could you give us some basic information on the hardware you are using?

If you've already tried to:

Verify your game files via Steam


Re-install the game

You can also try to

delete the DayZ folder in your documents manually


go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps and delete appmanifest_221100.acf - afterwards verify your game files


more advanced: go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata and make a backup of that folder (in case something goes wrong, you never know). Afterwards, you can dive in and delete data with the number 221100 in the name. Afterwards verify your game files and try again

If this still does not work, we recommend you to contact our feedback tracker at feedback.dayz.com with a private ticket. Please include your crash report and your DxDiag report.

Hi, lets try to cover the basics first.

Did you already verify your game files via Steam?


Do you have any launch parameters active in the launcher? If yes, try to remove them first, and try again.


Did you play on any modded servers before?

---

If this does not help you can try to:

Navigate in to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\*SteamID*\

Then there should be multiple folders, the ones relevant to DayZ are

221100 for stable


1024020 for experimental


delete both of them

Let me know how it goes ๐Ÿ™‚

To add some explanation to @TheCreeper (DayZ)'s comment, this is what DayZ is about. Players are supposed to discover things by themselves, and have free choosing on what to do. The world out there is tough, and if someone manages to stay alive and gear themselves up, they gain power to engage other players, making it harder for them.

Now there are multiple ways to approach this situation:

Respawn and try to make it better. That can be achieved in multiple ways. Maybe you were too open positioned, because even if you have found some nice friends, you need to stay aware of your surroundings. As you learned, not everyone is that nice.


Chose who you trust and how you engage other players. Some kill everyone instantly because they fear they get killed instead. Some have a more tactical approach. Some just like to kill, die and respawn.


If you discover that this constant thread of looming insta death is not for yo...

DayZ development is continuing, don't cry, don't panic.

Comment

What @Greensek posted on Adam's behalf (associate Project Lead) remains unchanged, the DayZ development is not closed. Up to late 2019/early 2020, some Bratislava developers were occasionally assisting with a few specific topics. Other developers now provide this support, and the core team hasn't changed, sitting in our Prague studio.

We remain committed to supporting and further develop DayZ in 2020, the next step being the game update 1.08, which we will communicate about in the upcoming weeks.

In the meantime, we are preparing a bigger statement to address all concerns.

If you have been wrongfully banned, please contact the BattlEye support. Trying to come up with methods to circumvent the ban is not going to help you, and might result in further penalization.

Dear Survivors,

yesterday's 1.07 Update regrettably introduced several new issues to the game. To be as transparent as possible with you, we would like to go into some detail on those problems and what we intend to do about them.

The game crash (blue screen on PS4), that most of you are currently experiencing, is a consequence of the recent work that was put into the inventory. However, as our inventory is quite complicated with countless options of switching and swapping on both the PC and console inventory, this error occurred on the consoles, as a result from the fixes. Our programmers are currently going through all interactions that are moving items to adjust them.

We have also seen a server crash appear which is most likely tied to the physics-based dropping of large items. This issue also seems to appear more often on console servers. So we will most likely revert the change temporarily, until a more solid solution is found.

If you experience some inventory-related issues, reconnecting to the server may help by refreshing the inventory content.

Hello Survivors,

2019 has been a busy year for the team, with the release of 6 major updates, the release of the game on Xbox and PS4, and DayZ Livonia on all platforms. We have been thrilled to see our players exploring the game, sharing moments, and expanding the game with mods.

Regarding the last major update, some severe issues have made their way into it. We are very well aware of their impact on the game and are working on them.

About the inventory-related issues, we have identified most of the causes leading to items getting stuck or not picked up, and are addressing them one by one. Still, due to their complexity, it takes time; however, we'll prioritize, focus and make solid attempts to resolve these in the beginning of 2020.

On the server-side front, we have deployed a small update on all platforms that will help with some of the most common crashes.

Although working on small new content, we re...

You will find the option in the web interface, settings page of your server. The option is called "mission" and allows you to switch between Chernarus and Livonia.

This issue has been fixed, however an additional download is necessary (~3GB). If the download doesn't start on its own, restarting the Steam client or verifying the integrity of the game files (Steam Library >> Manage >> Properties >> Local files tab) may help.
