Once any bugs are ironed out I'd rather see the HUD icon removed for that very reason, people will abuse it and then say its a feature.

Man I dunno how you do it tbh, playing dayz alone under the influence is just too intense..after a fire fight or any confrontation for that matter I'm a nervous wreck.

infected make no difference to murders, its been proven before. It just lets people troll others with zombie trains. Besides wasn't the movement speed change actually a change in a recent beta and not intentional.

It's already been proven that infected difficulty doesn't make a huge difference to people shooting other people. The infected difficulty has intentionally and unintentionally been ramped up previously. It didn't save jimmy from being shot as he crawled away with broken legs crying for help from the guy standing there laughing at him.

I've had a few where I spend 15 minutes carefully checking areas and creeping past zombies only to have someone spawn in behind me.

This was tried a couple of patches ago but ran into issues, will probably make a return soon.

If someone told me I could play dayz but the guns would shoot like call of duty I wouldn't be as keen. The arma engine does alot of things we take for granted.

If it had a time limit say 5 minutes for the people that get disconnected in a legit fashion. It would also need to advise you of this prior to actually joining another server so you don't get walls of complaints in the forum.

It was pretty funny when they accidently shot their guardian angel

dayz is closer to stalker than what stalker online looks.

I like how this game punishes the no effort attitude in modern gamers.

Great vid, that gunshot sound had some real punch to it.

Often don't have to crawl through towns, if you hug the buildings the vision bar drops. Just saying.

The thing is swiftspear, and this is mainly about your second point. Alot of what makes dayz initially fun is the lack of accessibility. You don't have a tutorial that teaches you every single element of the game. Its up to you to discover (or not). Your looking at the pov of what game companies do now, and alot of people are..well sick of it. Theres a youtube video 'if doom was made today' which represents the point. Many of us liked to walk away after the first 5 hours not with 10 achievements and 5 unlocks. But with the knowledge that we understand the game better and have attained something that only came with hard work. Spending so much time watching videos and guides BEFORE you first play the game sorta defeats that.
