Me and my friend dying at the same time with no apparent cause
Me and my friend were in guglovo, and out of nowhere we both die at the same time, we were doing nothing and just died, i saw a what looked like a blood spray to the left before collapsing, while my friend just collapsed, does anyone know what happened?

Sounds like you walked into am well prepped ambush.
Had that happen many times, done it a few myself as well.

I love that they always put.."no apparent cause".

The conversation went something like this.." You take the one on the left..3..2..1..."

You are Dead.

When you say “doing nothing” do you mean standing perfectly still? Because if so then being shot is very likely. Especially if you weren’t hidden or anywhere that would block lines of sight.

Speculative replies. DayZ has always had a problem with hackers. Now take a look at what PUBG has done to deal with the hacker issue, they use BattleEye just like DayZ, and compare that to DayZ. PUBG is much more proactive on the issue. You will never know the reason why you died, it could be a hacker, and also there's a reason for the existence of white-listed servers with this game. Finally, don't expect any resolution on this problem either. Enjoy ?

around 85% of ALL claims of hack/cheat in ANY online MMO style game\
are just bad players looking for a convenient excuse as to they they die all
the time but don't really suck at the game...
Problem is, all this "wolf crying" is helping the few actual hackers
cuz you can't tell the forrest from the trees.

idk me and my friend who were an entire town over died within 1 minute of each other. No gun shot just the sound of my skull cracking and the death screen. both of us had motorcycle helmets on. funny thing is we were both in seperate warehouse buildings with no windows ect jsut dead on official. decided to buy us both the DLC then we gear up on non populated dlc servers first now

If the server has a decent population then that is in no way unusual.
Unlucky maybe... Warehouse buildings have MANY windows. it is possible to
peek/shoot into every barn as well.
The second golden rule of DayZ is... You are NEVER "safe".
If you line a barn lined with vanilla walls you greatly improve your chances
but there is nearly always a gap or 3 you missed.

NOTE: ALL windows can be shot through. If you can see through a crack
or gap, you can shoot through it as well.

Yea bro, if you weren't in cover and standing still then it can go both ways, but leans more toward you just getting team shot by a competent group. in my situation, I was inside a closed shed, my team-mate was in the house next to me fighting a Z and running around. No sound, we both just died instantaneously. Checked how many people were online and it was 3. Us and one other person lol. Somehow killed both of us at the exact same time. Whoever is saying its skill issue and people complaining is helping the "few" hackers, couldnt be more wrong. Hacks are way too easy and accessible these days. A lot more than you think.

If you checked after you got dead, there were FIVE players online at the time you and your friend got dead .. the 3 you saw in the Launcher, and the 2 of you. Once you are dead, you are not ON the server anymore, until you respawn.

And if you are Alt+Tabbing out to check the launcher, you have to refresh it to get the current count, otherwise, it shows the number from before you joined.

Edit: FFS, this thread was TWO YEARS OLD before you brought it back from the dead .. Do you really think the OP has waited for TWO YEARS to hear what you had to say?
