i actually had thought that we would get the chernarus world from the ACR(army of the czech republic) add on, as that would have given us more ground to (dis)cover, but i think utes is nice as an extra piece of real estate. (still hoping though....) love what has been done to the loot spawn and wrecks

best to you and work in your own pace, key to survival is not to get stuck in the crowd and not to dwell alone when you need company when you think it is ready for release, we will be here to receive in the meanwhile have some cooked meat, i got my belly full of beans....

happy new year and may it bring back the guys from greece ! how can every one desire a stand alone when we should stand together ?

try to disable post processing and hdr on normal, AA disabled and ani disabled then look at performance, then slightly move up the settings untill you find a look and performance that you like all is done in the video option (advanced)

food ! rocket or other devs, please look at the food stuff, when i walk in a forest i see food every where, not just animals nor cans of food, i see pine trees birch trees ferns mushrooms and a lot more you can eat and can't eat in real life, but there is a hell of a lot that you can eat and i think you should add bush food in the mix for the real survival experience rather than canned beans or pasta, damn you can even eat clovers and grass if need be. besides the food stuff (read some survival guides and or survival food books) we need a water filter of sorts DIY or factory made. who knows what is in those stale ponds. on a weapon related note, make magazines rare but ammo, the bullets less rare, never throw away empty magazines when there is no need, or give us a dump bag, useful for wasted mags and or foraging make it harder and yet less stupid, i probably would never go for canned food in real life in such a situation, simply because it is more a problem due to waste, and on that please let us drop wasted cans of food and drinks after we used those or keep them empty in our inventory. (ever heard of clean camping ?)

roaming hordes that travel the country side from city to city on and off road. make them spawn like crash sites and let them move to the most populated area once the horde is killed then spawn another and repeat the process from an other random point on the map (the usual stuff like fixes but that is obvious) on internal DAYZ gear check on spawn so to stop hackers with fancy non dayz weapons name the original chopper and have the game check if there is a hacked chopper etc. (like make a zone above the country/map that only allows one flying chopper by name and detonates the other hacked flying vehicles, maybe place anti air defense ?)

some rocket exploded on chernarus and people got infected, then those lucky to have been swimming with their clothes on, while it happened turned out to be immune, not totally because the ability to behave civilized was somehow destroyed among many survivors and now it is a rat race between guns and bigger guns cars and buses, and maybe if you get lucky your big gun will take down that heli flying overhead. meanwhile the infected who are not dead yet find sudden lead poisoning to be lethal and some people are unable to get that rag of their head for what ever reason.

grudge ? i killed one guy who lied to a friend who was talking to him and saying he was on the server for the first time, i over heard the conversation and had a firefight just the night before with the same guy, so i shot him (again) because he was lying to my friends (teamspeak helps besides the direct coms) the guy later apologized and now is running with us

if you know it is not in game originally then don't have it. when you are unaware of its legality in game then search, and do the right thing when the answer is found. if you find a gun on the street and you take it home, is that a good thing to do ? and don't tell me about it is just a game, because if it was just a game, hell then i guess god mode is just fine ? spawners get a ban, see server logs first ! users who pick it up and use it while knowing (you can reasonably know and search) get kicked ?

you want to be a hero ? then play medic

17.15h CET heli hacks so server restarted

i run with a few guys that pvp and they love to pvp but i don't, so what i do is i go my own way yet share resources and often place tents at locations where i stash loot, (for all to use not just my group) when one of the guys is in trouble, blood loss or injured i go and try to find the guy and help him out, and when they are under fire like when there is a team vs team situation i will join in if i am in the area. we also go on looting trips together and when we get in trouble i sure as hell will help and fire at other players, but only when fired upon as a group, when they see some one and think easy target, i do not join in with the fight, they know i don't like the thrill kill grief and noob bashing, and accept that, and we are like one team but they do pvp and i don't, and there is no problem in that, i am like a scout, nurse and back up, they are a fire team. there are some guys who join me from time to time in scouting and random walks, and when it is only two of us the other will not go in pvp mode but keeps silent like me, which is nice age seems to be a factor in whether guys pvp or not, the older guys get the less likely they are purely pvp not saying the older guys don't pvp but they have more discipline i guess not to kill on sight.

short sighted , i wear a ghillie so not to be seen by trigger happy survivors who think like you, the many i have seen and not shot at are 100 % more than those i killed. (zero murders, may be name tags should be on and we friendly ghillies should all shoot you for being racist ? can we report this because in essence you are racist in your words and if so actions. ?)

will chernarus be ported to the arma 3 engine ? and updated with more enter-able buildings ? will they also make more islands in the dayZ game ? i mean stratis and the other arma 3 island are nice for dayz but that would make DAYZ game a mod on those maps i guess. would be nice if it was 4 season map(s).

the guys i play with complain when they have not killed any one in the past hour or so on team speak, blood lust is already there. what really needs to be in there should be some kind of shell shock or ptsd reaction, rather than encourage killing, maybe feel remorse by sobbing or being unable to move for a minute when your alone in the woods (with flashing images of previous kills survivor and zombie/infected) only to react when you see danger (strangers animals hear shots or engine) call it a moment of self reflection or remorse

it could be done with the arrowhead part of arma 2, there you have a desert map (empty) and you can put down town modules. if they would make a grassy desert and implement the town module as a random spawn and also create a new forest module then it can be done.. but roads would be lacking i think with a little scripting and modding it could be done on that desert land in arma 2 OA, but then you would miss the forest etc.

guys i think the graphics bug is more on their minds now than helicopters

if you want choppers go play take on helicopters they will come back, at least in the final release

if been thinking about things that would help the game with over all gameplay and immersion rather than posting them in other threads separately i think this post will be more of a summary i would like people to comment and add things other than "bigger guns" "more vehicles" and that sort of things. these are like small things for game play sake and immersion. 1) since bandit skins have been eliminated i think we can all agree that for survivors ghillies are the new bandit skins, atleast from my experience i think it is sad, and would like a return of the bandit skin, if some what modified to a less obvious yet noticeable change. i suggested arm bands, which you can chose to equip from start in certain colors once you have killed it changes to black and when killing is a habit or your game and you have chosen to wear the armband it will be on both arms ? (or some thing like that) maybe make a notice since it is in game whether it is bandit kill or survivor kill, this would also help with clans and identification as they could use the clan tag option in arma to display a logo on the arm band (this would probably be some work on the devs part to realize but i think it is worth exploring) 2) gutting an animal for meat is a nice feature but it would be nice if the skin or feathers could be used for warmer clothes for example. (then you can have a third option to regain warmth) (personally i think it is a waste to kill an animal just for the meat in a survival situation) 3) cars and trucks have such a load carrying capacity that they are rarely used for what they are meant to be used, transportation, now they sit idle in far of fields as glorified tents which i think is a game spoiler, they should be driven, the roads should be alive with these vehicles, and limiting the load capacity would help with that a lot. 4) no backpack under a ghillie suit, irl you can not wear an alice under a ghillie and not even a patrol pack, a vest yes that can be worn under a ghillie so that should definitely be changed in my opinion because now there are too many pack mules in ghillie that carry multiple guns and loot which i think is unrealistic and does not help the game nor team play. ghillie = no backpack 5) working electricity there is a perfect thread around here explaining all that. http://dayzmod.com/f...l__+power +grid thanks for reading and i hope there are some constructive replies (edit for a bug) i received beans but there is 0 views thanks for the beans i needed that :D

i would really like to drop the backpack and save its location, then use that as storage. and please do something about the vehicle storage, because i think that most are now glorified tents because they rarely are driven

i think it would be far more useful to make ghillie suit players be restricted to the czech vest pouch or no back pack (as in real life) and maybe they should use the napa skins rather than the army skins.

i place tents on remote but open locations, fill them with the loot i don't need atm, and who ever gets there has some thing to drink and eat, maybe some ammo, i intend to do this more and more and keep this social tent structure working for the lost and lonely. while i mostly run with a group who are more kill on sight and snipe types they do or at least some support my idea, in hopes to make a friendly server where the airfields and stary etc are kill or be killed and these tents are social pick nicks. not camper spots. if i see strangers i fraps them and that is all the shooting i do until they fire upon me.

drank it while having a mp5sd and it is cursed (both are), got killed 30 min later when the dew lifted
