Matt Lightfoot should have told you to quit the fucking bumping. Threads that die, die.

Don't even try to rationalize the aircraft situation. The idea of apocalyptic survivors flying hueys around when you can barely scrounge fuel is rediculous. I get the running without rest, I get the fixing automobiles, but I do not get getting chaingunned from the sky by former arma players just because they are familiar with the controls. I understand the game cannot be 100% real, but without infrastructure (drilling for oil, pumping oil, refining oil to make fuel, shipping fuel, etc) how do you justify entire cities with power? Small generators you get from the hardware store that run on little fuel, ok.

Sure. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/95760-my-strange-brain-got-some-ideas/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/92578-microphone-proximity/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/75096-quick-voice-commands/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/54090-failure-to-communicateparanoid-deathmatch/ Clicked on one of your tags. :(

Unless you throw in wind power plants how can you explain this? Fuel-oil power plants require train shipments of fuel each day to keep running. Coal-fire plants require train shipments of coal each day to keep running. Nuclear requires constant supervision to control temperature. Basically wind power plants would last the longest without people to run them. But, the first time the wind picks up past a certain mph with no humans there to put the brakes on they would spin out of control and disintegrate. Prime power generators require 30 litres of fuel per hour. Where does that come from? Without infrastructure there is no power. Only the smallest 10kw to 30kw generators make sense, and they can power individual buildings only.

Yes. Great for performing first aid or (sigh) vehicle repairs quickly as to avoid detection or danger.

Let's add crop circles. Since everyone in DayZ is a certified helicopter pilot they are sure to see it.

Rocket himself has said he will not force players to play a certain way. 'nuff said. We will weather the storm of COD kiddies and not make pvp's wear bright orange jumpsuits. I am wiley enough to avoid them when needed. EDIT: Why is Chabowski a dick? You're one to talk. Myself though? I'm a straight up asshole.

God bless the Scots. If COD scum don't like the gameplay they will leave when Modern Warfare 4 comes out. Then we survivors will still be drinking water from rusty pumps in the woods. I don't want to encourage them to stay around with their own spawn.

Why are you playing the mod if you think it needs to be changed so much? Sure it will have changes, not revamps. It will have additions but not drastic gameplay changes. You are playing the genesis of a game that doesn't need to be reworked from scratch. You're right it's not finished, but it's not 99% incomplete either. Elements need to be improved, updated, patched, play tested, balanced, groomed and patched again, but fuck adding whole new elements to attract more gamers. A simple game that is solid owns a game that is complex and fundamentally flawed. "If we put a gun on them are we just idiots who need to 'GO PLAY TWISTED METAL'?" LOL. Yes, unless you mean firing out of a vehicle. If you mean mounting a M240 or rocket launchers, than yes, tell me the last time you found one laying around?

I'm not contradicting shit. I used the word "makes" not "made". For example Hope Rocket makes this game. . . I know it's not finished, but it doesn't need the drastic revision that people are in a twist over. The point is that not everyone needs accomodation. Fix glithes, cheats and hax and you have already improved the game without changing it's idea.

I'm pretty sure all of you jackasses are hoping Rocket make the end all-be all of games where you can do everything and you never need to play another game again. You're idiots. Hope Rocket makes this game how he wants to make it, play it for it's merits and still play other games (which you will do anyway) for your other needs. There is no perfect game, that is why I have a large game library. I will play the total war games for strategy, cod for pointless action and meeting with friends, solitaire when my work computer is blue coated, and dayz when I need to get away. Why change drastically a game that gained the highest following for an Alpha in history? It obviously got something right! If anything encourage more moding!

Yes.

@ VKX Play another game. Rocket's competing product (as ugly as it is) should have plenty of objectives for you.

This game is not made for everyone, nor should it be. I hope rocket won't add car jacking because some people like GTA just as I hope he won't add furry sex because a certain demographic of japanese males have epic fetishes. Rocket does not need to include something for everyone he simply needs to make his game and let the community form. Fuck deathmatchers, let them stick to consoles.

Already have stealth kills, grab an axe.

http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/90247-different-maps-that-are-connected-to-chernarus/ This one covers Huge maps!! One World! (or at least many very large worlds) and One continuous world. That is not trolling, it's pointing out that you did not search for anything when you made your post.

It's not a bad idea for a map in a more westernized area.

I agree with being able to tame a lot of animals, but not in DayZ. Also a bird can't "scout" for you because a bird can't speak your language and tell you what it saw. . .

Air compressor's tanks leak, they need a motor to force air into the tank. You would need fuel to run the motor and fill the tank. Also rubber gaskets corrode over time and the tank may not hold air. Flamethrowers. . . possibly. :)

Well this could incorporate Rocket's idea of permadeath but only for the day. It would piss you off but highly motivate you at the same time.

Hi, apache!

I like it, but I think you would just be competing with the wiki.

Who would like to see Chernobyl? These guys! http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/97079-chernobyl/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/94612-new-chernobyl-map-idea/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/93554-lethal-area/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/45916-suggestion-for-new-city/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/33588-which-map-would-you-like-to-see-for-dayz/ :facepalm:

Great!

I like it, but it needs a more predatory animal. Currently you can count on one hand the number of verified wolf attacks in the US, they are usually quite shy of humans. Maybe a Cougar of some sort, or rabid predators of some kind. I like it though.
