Common Cold is easily treated by:
- Stay warm (get heat buff with a camp fire, and/or find better clothes)
- Drink clean water or canned beverages
- Eat .. Avoid pet food and unknown food cans if you can, as well as "rotten" fruit and mushrooms

There are mods, but you play on servers - where diseases exist. If you play locally, then you can disable the disease through a mod, but what's the point then? Learn the mechanics of the game. Get treatment. Don't drink dirty water (only from the pump). Eat only what's cooked on a fire. Look for warm clothes. Don't attack the infected - if you don't know how to defend yourself.

@OP .. If this is your own server, just use Admin tools to "heal" yourself.
- Having a mod just for disabling Disease would only be any good, if the server owner would decide to use the mod on their server.

Never mind, I switched to Deadside. Better graphics, better base building, better vehicles, and no one-hour fatal disease. Otherwise, pretty much the same, except the zombies have guns, and there are PvE servers.

Some people are looking for an easy way out. But then why play games with complex mechanics?

Deadside has everything DayZ has, plus more. The only thing is that clothes last longer than toilet paper, rain won't kill you in 60 minutes, and you can't starve to death in an hour.

A bit more realism.

Bro. No one judges. To each his own. I don't like a lot of things in Dayz either. Including the stupidity of the slots in the T-shirt (which is why I started signing up for modding). I ended up fixing the fix that you can't drink or eat with a mask on your face. And I like the Dayz that I make for my mod. Vanilla doesn't suit me at all. Not the servers. Not the randomness. Not the cheaters. Not even the fact that after eating 20 apples, the character dies after a day, according to the logic of the game. But there are game mechanics and game conventions. Some things have to be accepted as is from the developers, and some can be fixed with mods, or find a server where everything suits you. Or... create your own?

I'm not your 'bro'. Grow up.

Or...play a better game, ie, Deadside.

Please forgive me generously for addressing you as a "game man."
I'm a grown-up girl and I never intended to insult you with the word "bro"

Never apologize to weak "men".

Bro refunded the game because it was "too hard", after wrongly posting a "request of the Developers" in the Player created Mods discussion section.

I wasn't insulted, just dismayed yet again by the abysmal level of communication skills that is so common these days.

I suppose using 'bro' makes you feel all urban and less pathetic.

I didn't return the game, but I did find it boring. Endlessly searching the same six floorplans while clothes rot like wet TP, you can starve to death in minutes, and cartridges somehow become 'worn'.

I acquired a box of military issue .45 hardball from a 1946 lot that was green with corrosion from water immersion, and fired them off on their 70th birthyear. Fed perfectly.

There's a difference between a hard game, and a game of constant and largely pointless repetition.

if u think a game is boring - u shouldnt lower/remove its difficulty like a pleb.

The person you are "communicating" with, is not a native English speaker .. perhaps the problem is your feeling entitled to have everyone in the WORLD speak YOUR language ..

1. You did return the game. You used to own the game, you played the game, and you now do not own the game .. your "mouse" icon is gone, but you have "time played" .. this only happens one way.

2. Is calling someone "urban" supposed to be some kind of low-key racist insult? Because your comments and phrasing really make it seem like you're low-key racist.

3. I'm sorry that you can't tell the difference between Real things and a Video Game .. I suspect that if the game were Real, you'd have the same level of inability in surviving though. You seem very in-flexible, and very knowledgeable of actual survival skills that would have made DayZ a very easy game to "survive".

Since you don't own the game any longer, and you didn't like the game while you did own it, it's probably best for your inner peace, if you move on down the rural dirt road, to the Deadside forums.
