MR DELICIOUS

You're correct, I made the correction in the main list. I have a feeling it worked at time of writing and might have been taken out. Whereas smoke was a visual power on zombies, flares were meant to be aural power, but I don't think it works anymore.

I feel that randomised spawns for the lesser vehicles (non-mil) is a really nice idea, but being able to reliably find certain military vehicles in military compounds or areas is a good idea to preoccupy people who would otherwise be on the coast with a DMR. I don't see why Rocket can't add a few random mil camps around - especially near Blackforest and south east of Devil's Castle (where nothing spawns for about 2kms) with a chance for a UH or Jeep to spawn. I found my Apache gunship next to a cottage near Olsha which was a pleasant surprise.

Edited main post.

The woods..................... :angel: There's also a few maps available with all the deer stands marked on them.

I love that you're filled with this brimming, angry, virile rage. It makes you look so powerful.

For the last couple of days they haven't really been spawning. A UH heli spawns at NW airfield (prepare to die if you want to fix it without thirty friends) and numerous cars and jeeps spawn at petrol stations around the map and at Green Mountain. Motor bikes spawn most frequently besides hospitals, particularly in Berezino. I fixed up an M1 Abrams in Olsha, but I couldn't find any shells for the main gun. Rocket just fixed the vehicle spawn, so you should see them around more frequently now.

It's actually very easy to find friends to play with. Start off and ask other noobs around you (they all look like Ash Ketchum) if they want to team up. Then invite them to TS or Ventrilo, befriend them on Steam, and the first thing you should do is run north and don't stop until you reach a barn or somewhere else you can get better weapons than the starting pistol. The people complaining about PvP are either very unlucky, or are playing in a way that is begging for everyone around to kill them. Also, don't go into Chern or Electro, or SW Airfield if you want to live more than an hour. Once you're tooled up in the middle of the map, then you can start to diversify. Similarly, there are survivors groups in the survivors groups thread, there are groups on reddit (if you can get past the inundation of shit derivative culture of memes and "politeness") and you can always make groups in game. Also, don't ask if there are friendlies in Chern or Electro unless you want to die.

Rocket was actually watching as you performed your actions and punished you specifically. I have never had a problem with humanity, but that's because I spend the majority of my time with a SAW on the shoreline.

The other day I asked Legion member MuffPounder98 when the pimping would stop, and he simply replied "it just won't." When I asked him to clarify this, he simply stated that the pimping would most likely continue for an indefinite period of time. Dallas servers are roleplaying servers where God is a 16 year old.

IVE SET UP A SAFE HOUSE AT NORTHWEST AIRFIELD BANDITS KEEP OUT OR ELSE

If you get to the quadrant north west of NWAF there's actually a miniature village populated by zombie dwarfs. It's even based off the topographical map of the same village in China. Weird little easter egg for the devs to include, but worth a visit nonetheless.

I found an M1 Abrams in Olsha but Mr Delightful has been listening to a lot of Pink lately, so he's been very angry and won't listen to reason, and proceeded to chase me around in it.

Here's a suggestion, stop asking shiteating, leading questions in global chat like "is -49,000 a very bad humanity score?" and go off up north to some secluded place and start to farm zombies. Every day my chat is eaten up by people with really low humanity scores telling the server over and over how "bad" they are. If you're feeling particularly generous, kill the bandits around elektro. In three days you'll be back in the positive. Where are you that you're constantly defending yourself? Serving communion in Chern church? For all that is good, these grandstanding, retarded questions are getting really old. Half the time I have a hard time maintaining my bandit rating, so I've got to go on long trips to the coast to sacrifice a noob survivor so I don't lose all the crap that I'm holding.

I'd also be down for cannibalism as it extends role playing and can just use the "hide body" function while restoring your hunger, however, every time you do it, it lowers your humanity by the same as a kill. This is good for the bandits who want to stay bandits (at the moment many bandits are killing survivors simply because they dont want the transition bug) and it's also a good moral decision for the survivors as to whether or not they want to descend. Also, the antibiotics that are currently useless in game could very well be good for curing water poisoning. It makes much more sense than morphine.

I think the point he's making is that being randomly teleported to the debug zone and forced to fight your way out alongside several other players is irritating after you've spent the majority of your game playing it incredibly (brutally and sociopathically) safe. So yeah, strange bug and something Rocket might want to look at.

Now all I need is to be able to shoot my PDW from the windows and I can drive by people in Chern church. #YOLO

A traffic map would be really handy for balancing gameplay flow from a design POV. It would be really helpful to know the most traveled areas and the least for the purpose of increasing map exploration incentives.

Yeah I believe that the "revive" function should require nearly duplicates of every medicine available in the game, making any revival incredibly precarious both supplies and time wise. It would put stress on a group to coordinate a revival if they decide to undertake one.

EDIT: My bad, mistook you for SwayzeGhost!

The way to deal with this problem isn't to remove PvP, or punish people for using it, but to give players more options in how to play the game. I've written a huge thread of suggestions, and most of - if not all of them - will lessen wreckless PvP. http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=729 These suggestions will draw more experienced bandits away from the coast, as right now I can see that the majority of PvP occurs due to boredom and the fact that the CZ/enfield/winchester are the only weapons you can get any realistic amount of ammo for. Similarly, the same thing applies. If you're in the coastal area - expect to die. Everybody is fair game on the coast.

This is a great idea. It should drop once every two hours (considering the amount of time people have to play) and with red smoke grenades and a few flares in case it's nighttime. It would really liven play up. It should also contain four or five good NATO, survival equipment and medical spawns in it (maybe four for each to represent a rearming fire team). Haha can you imagine someone's face in finding one and only getting broken cans out of it?

The solution here isn't to nerf the Winchester, but to give NATO weapons the same spawn viability of the hunting rifles. At present it is much smarter to spend twenty minutes clearing a few barns for a cz, enfield or Winchester and actually get one with two or three clips of ammo than trek all the way to the highly dangerous airfields to get seven different types of single unique ammo magazines, find one NATO weapon without ammo and one AKM with one magazine. Players should be rewarded for entering into dangerous militarized zones with better rewards. The only thing that should be changed about the Winchester is that it should be the same loudness as the enfield and cz. Also, the M1 auto shotgun is 12 gauge and isn't able to use Winchester ammo (12 gauge). Equalizing the shotgun ammo across all the shotguns would then place much greater emphasis on the actual gun you're firing from, and you'll find players wanting to upgrade to the Remington or M1 instead of just always running the Winnie.

That sounds like a good idea Morbo. I think for the sake of Rocket's work load, it would be good to recreate the diuretic effect by making sodas replenish you 25% as opposed to waters full 100%. I'm not sure how the game handles the value, but this would quickly let a player know that they really need to fill water up when they see it if they're to survive. Similarly, for the time being I would give sea water the same properties as soda's (so you need to have it often if you're to survive). Then in the future, it would be good to have a stacking effect of increasing thirst. I don't know though, a stacking "dehydration rate" might be just as doable as the first solution. Of course, the stack cycle would by made null and void as soon as a player drank a good bottle of clean water. Also, I think a bottle of one time use branded water is a great idea. As such, I would perhaps make it that soda spawns one third less than the amount it does now - so that they're in game and present, but also not the best thing available.
