  1. If players are going to be setting up trade posts, or attempting to establish some form of civilization, it's up to them what's valuable or not. How do you think money got invented in the first place? More than being representative of the value of gold (which came about a bit later), it's a medium of exchange. People need to be able to trade things with a perceived value. *EDIT: googled this : History of Money* It makes perfect sense to have notes and coins lying around homes and shops, or in the pockets of an unfortunate native. Some people don't seem to understand that "no economy" doesn't mean all the actual money in the world ceases to exist.
  2. In PlaywithSix, you have to select DayZ Namalsk from the MOD list instead of DayZ (like normal) It will install itself. Then you can chop and change as you please.
  3. I was going to just post a negative reply, but I think I would like the ability to play cards with other survivors. Even if it's totally pointless. It would be better if you could deal cards freely and play ANY game instead of just pre-set ones. But that might be a little far-fetched. EDIT: If money is an item, wouldn't it be in rubles? It should be a junk item, if anything. Players can place their own value on things if they want to trade. There's no economy. It's an apocalypse! Should there be a shop? Absolutely not! All civilization has to be built by the players, that's the point of DayZ. EDIT (since you changed the OP) No NPCs. Definitely not. No.
  4. I don't think that thermal / night vision combo scope is a real thing anyway. Maybe I'm wrong about that though.
  5. Do you and your friend have a different skin on? Hero/Survivor/Bandit/Camo/Ghillie Different people are getting different script restrictions, but all in similar circumstances. Thread Thread It's only on certain servers. But there's a LOT of them.
  6. You reckon it would be possible to take the players gear and turn it into a loot-pile if they log out after death? I don't know how any of it works, but it's definitely brain-food.
  7. stabby, stabby, stab, stab. Something has polluted my little brain.
  8. Take away the thermal sight and give it a bayonet instead :thumbsup:

    Bayonet

    They should build a new peripheral for it.USB bayonet. You just hold on to it, and stab it into your monitor. :thumbsup:
  10. A point about what Jamz said. BE VERY CAREFUL when you put a weapon into your backpack. If there is not enough space (10 slots for a primary, 5 for secondary) the weapon will get deleted. Some things you have to find out for yourself, but I'd like to save you that particular bit of torture.
  11. Welcome to the family ;) You can use the mousewheel to "open" the bigger bag, then move everything from your pack into the one on the floor. Then select "take backpack". Viola! Hatchet is a bugger, there's no quick or efficient way to go about it. Your character doesn't get hungry or thirsty unless you're playing. Best to have supplies on you all the time anyway. Server settings are totally up to the admins, the name of the difficulty level doesn't necessarily mean anything. Some servers let you see yourself (and others within range) on the map. Some don't. Hope that helps you some.
  12. There's always a STANAG ammo box when the barracks is full of shotguns.
  13. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/99046-petition-to-remove-krutory-cap-spawn/page__hl__krutory Give an impartial, non-selfish reason why. Or no dice.
  14. If players will be locked to certain styles of server then there will obviously have to be clearly defined settings to prevent things getting over-complicated. Best bet is to wait and see what difficulty options there are when SA is released, I imagine the setup will be perfectly reasonable.
  15. mr_chabowski@live.co.uk

    Bayonet

    I imagine bayonets could make a vital part of a "high-end" set up. Seeing as how a lot of focus for SA is supposedly being directed at melee combat, it would make perfect sense. A DIY bayonet isn't too far fetched either, provided weapon customisation definitely becomes a feature.
  16. Sounds like you might have a fairly promising skill-set, It's a shame you use your powers for evil. :P Tactical organisation is good for overcoming a challenge, but hunting bambies isn't exactly hardcore. Proper "specialists" should be taking on the role of counter-bandit.
  17. Maybe their mum sewed their name on a label in their shirt? The label doesn't have a cause of death though.
  18. No, they will be entirely separate. Wait a month and get SA if you haven't already got ArmA.
  19. Happened to me not long ago, Hero skin on the public hive. Seems to be any skin except the default survivor earning players the boot. I'm guessing it's just due to scripts not being up to date on certain servers, because it doesn't happen on all of them. I tried to search the forum for info, best I found was a couple of threads saying use the search bar.... .... awesome. Just try different servers. They aren't all broken, just most of them. EDIT: For reference, I got "Script Restriction #45" So I guess #41 is a bandit boot and #45 is a hero? I've lost the thread now, but someone else said they got #38 if I remember correctly. That could be for either ghillie or camo. Just thinking out loud. ^_^
  20. Read the latest Dev report on the tumblr page, HERE It's going to take as long as it takes. Patience.
  21. The respawn button is activated when you've got a broken leg. Hit "escape", Hit "respawn".
  22. ^ Most private hives seem to customise the game to take the challenge out, to varying degrees. Many cases are less "diluting" more "cheating" Are we still going to have private hives running their own version of the game in standalone? I was under the impression there was going to be a complete "lockdown" on custom scripts.
  23. If you need food, cap a few mythbusters. You said yourself you had a Swiss-army hatchet. That's all you need.
  24. There are already some other topics in this area. I like the idea, it would help to identify silhouettes of your buddies so you can pick them out of a crowd. You have to realise, people will find a "min/max" way to exploit any customisation you give them if there's any benefit to doing so. We might end up with heavy-set wrestler / midgets running all over the place.
