    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    ...and because he is working with the team/devs that created the engine/game I am pretty confident that the quality will be better than what already exists.

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    Seeing as how this will be using an arma engine i doubt my questions is a good one but... Will there be any compatibility for Mac? I have a windows partition on my mac (mainly for DayZ) so this is mainly a question of convenience but I would really like some mac compatibility (eventually) and it would also add a whole new community to your game. Mac "gamers" JUMP all over decent games that run on Mac and DayZ would be a feeding frenzy. Just food for thought while you are still in development. P.S: Don't rage and troll about Macs, they work just fine except for being unable to run .exe files on their own.

    Give Current Dayz Players Free Game Keys On Release

    I knew a new version was coming and contented myself with TF2 and watching DayZ LP's. No way in hell was I going to spend $30 when I knew that Arma 3 was coming out later this year. lol Edit: Also, he is going "minecraft" on it and purchasing while it is in Alpha means reduced pricing so it'll probably be like $10 or something.

    Party/ Buddy System

    Here you go sir, have all of my beans. That is exactly what I was aiming for with the certain distance thing.

    Party/ Buddy System

    I do not like the idea of no friendly fire. Just that your teammates names would pop up as opposed to other people who weren't teammates (their names would stay hidden)

    Outposts + Trading System?

    ahh, well i searched the first 3 pages for it and was new to the forum and didn't see it. Well, how about just the trading GUI then?

    Outposts + Trading System?

    I had three ideas that were pretty unrelated except that these two can kind of go together. I suggest that there be areas that are essentially "no kill". PvP (giving/ receiving damage) will be off when you are in a certain radius of these areas and the town will be somewhat fortified with npcs that target zombies so they cannot get into the outpost. These will be small areas and pretty rare (mostly along the coast) that allow for players to trade. Upon exiting the town you are given "x" minutes of no pvp (Can't take or do damage to players). This is to prevent bandits from camping towns and waiting for people to leave.Following the first comment, this has been suggested a lot apparently. Sorry for that, I looked in the first 3-4 pages and didn't see it so thought I would put a balanced method out there. Now hear me out. Person "a" has 6 Lee Enfield mags and person "b" has 12 cans of coke (he's not a pepsi fan). Well, person "a" needs something to drink before he dies and person "b" needs more ammo before he can go back out. Solution? Trading. Somehow make a GUI that allows person "a" to give person "b" 2 magazines in exchange for 3 cans of coke. I feel that these don't break the realism/ experience of the game too much and should actually add a unique part to the game. Safer trading that you don't have to drop trade or dig around in each other's packs for. Comments / Suggestions to alter?

    Party/ Buddy System

    I know there is a similar topic but I have different views and wanted to make them known. I feel that the standard on servers should be no names/ranges until you are in a "party" or if you are "buddies". Much like how Hardcore Call Of Duty manages players on the same team, "friendlies" should appear in green text and random guys' names don't show up at all. I mean, in real life you would be able to recognize people who are your teammates. Too many times teammates end up accidentally killing each other because they don't know who is who and some shoot first, ask later. Buddy system should not affect humanity except in the idea of reduced gain for healing them. Party system should affect humanity the same as the buddy system except that lost humanity is split amongst the group members currently online. No teleporting, no extra weapons. Plain and simple in my opinion.
