I think that blood should regenerate if you are green at water and food, but in this case food shouldn't provide an istant +200/+800 blood.

That's why bandits kills are only the 20% or total kills....

Arma2 tool doesn't matter, because dayz it's a lot slower than the original game. Use Fraps.

Yeah, it would be more immersive... but in the real servers (that doesn't show you names) that's irrilevant, and also when you study a body most time you will find "his name was unknown...", so it isn't a real necessity at now. Once again, it depends on players. Like the deathmatching that is ruining this game. And I don't trust players.

happened to me too. I took the ghillie suit i've found on a dead survivor, i heard sea's waves for 0,5 sec, then i lost all of my gear, exept ALICE backpack, hatchet and torchlight. Lastest beta patch since i used sixlauncer

Ops, i mean "PvP"...

wow. What is your K/D rateo?

"PvE kills" are the 15% of kills, but the system is counting also the suicide "respawn" button, used to respawn where you want by tentatives, or just because you got a fracture and you are too distant from an hospital after spawn. I use to respawn like 4-5 times to find the right place (usually near balota so i can loot the military camp with no pressure of lose gear), as many players do after they spawn. Zeds are too weak. A lot of people disconnects when they are trapped. They won't kill anybody. If you shoot a bandit and he gets killed by zeds, is it a pvp kill or pve? (i think pvp). But, seriusly, stop complainig about bandits. If you are alone, just camp under a tree sniping. If in 4+ players, you can assault towns and kill survivors. That's how it is supposed to play (i think, because bandit's skin were removed and there is no reward for be friendly).

Zeds should be killed only with HS. Now it's easy, one bullet of m1911 in the chest it's too simple. We have large amount of bullets, that will be wasted for useless Pk. Slow zombies are something weak in a real apocalipse (and in dayz too). You could be bitten only by "Lurkers", immobile zombie's that wait for you to come closer, because if you walk fast they will never reach you. If they are too many and you got surrounded because you have finished your ammo, you killed yourself -not the zeds. Zeds are not a threat. Survivors are.

Tents could appear pretty everywhere. Markets and apartments spawns more stuff, so trying there you'll have more chances.

You are saing a lot of bulls*it. If you want to survive: Run like an idiot when spawning, searching for: 1: Hatchet 2: Knife 3: Box of matches 4:water canteen Kill every survivor on sight in the meanwhile. Hide in a bush prone eating and drinking. If you get bored you die. If you found a weapon meanwhile, try to kill as many survivors you can with a easy shot so you'll probably find a sniper rifle to kill survivors for some fun. Because this game isn't made to be fun (as Rocket says).

I agree to you, i started to kill for fun just because all do the same to me and my friend. If any of my friend's in game, I start sniping from bushes, even if i have no need to loot. I'm loggin on servers that shows names, so i can record DCers with fraps, giving an help to the community. I hope that if everyone will do it (now they are the 80%) people will get bored of pvp and the focus on pve will be restablished. At now, everyone kills everything... so, what is the point to be a good player, when the reward for this is nothing or a bullet in the head?

I got an interesting idea on how put factions in game. The good ones, Chernarus Counter Zeds Force (CCZF) and the Bandits United (BU), the evil one. (I know names are terrible) APPARENCE: GOOD: military clotches, with a blue wrist band. EVIL: bandit skin, with a red wrist band. I suggest to lock the skins by joining (so no ghillie in factions). PREFACE: Introducing a new toolbelt item, RADIO. It will have a broadcast channel and a secret faction channel unocked after joining it. JOINING A FACTION WON'T BE SO EASY, the most of the players on the server's would be neutral survivors (not affiliated to a faction) JOINING GOOD: A broadcast message will be sent once or twice per day (as a subtitle) of an extration point, one hour before extration. Securing the extration zone will be a mission for the CCZF members (BU could listen to broadcast channel, somaybe be attracted). Once there, heli/boat/car extration will be performed in few minutes. JOINING EVIL: Killing survivors and CCZF (but no BU). This will generate a message on the secret radio channel to all BU members (a new mission) to meet you. Then wait for some BU member to come, and then use a contextual action to join them. HQs: HQs are places outside the map, unreachable for everyone. Getting back to hq will make all your gear disappear (it would be confiscated), but when you decide to get back to Chernarus you will be able to choose equipment related to your grade (increased by complete mission and kill other faction's members), base equipment should be makarov and ak74su or a similiar good weapon, Assault pack, and all the magazines, medicines and food you want. You still will be able to take better weapons and backpaks once back in Chernarus. GETTING TO THE HQ, GOOD: Analogue to the JOINING paragraph. GETTING TO THE HQ, EVIL: A Comunication on the secret faction's radio channel will be sent. note that i don't want to have frequent extrations, because extrations would be really expensive in a zombie apocalipse (nobody wants to see too air or sea traffic in the game), and it's reasonable to have members out for days to complete missions. GETTING TO CHERNOGORSK GOOD and EVIL: You will be able to spawn in certaint places border map, or, it there is an extration in progress, there. MISSIONS, GOOD AND EVIL: Will be sent on the faction's secret radio channel. Type depends on the number of faction's members in the server: GET FUEL, FOOD, WATER, ECC... BU ONLY: ARRANGE A MEETING -see joining evil CCZF ONLY: SECURE EXTRATION POINT - see jooining good if more than 10 faction's members: SEIZING THE AREA, killing all zeds and capturing. No zeds will no longer spawn in the area while it is capped. ASSAULT A SEIZED AREA, Just uncap a area. SURVIVORS: Not joining a faction will have some consequences: You will be able to recognize good from evils sometime (CCZF lose exp if they kill survivors, BU gains it instead). Paranoia about go into a city and see survivors will remain (since some survivors will became bandits for getting into the evil faction, and note that joining a faction is not so easy). Nobody would confiscate your gear, and you can keep playing as you are already doing now. Cool, isn't it?

MOVE TO BAN APPEALS; PLEASE! I was sniping a guy (and i got him) in FI 1, but i saw he dc (he disappeared), but re entered game in less than a minute... like he could press the abort button on the ESC menu. Is it possible? I got him about 8 times with a hunting sniper, how the f*ck did he survive? EVERY TIME I could see the blood cloud, and his body going down unconsious. But the idiot continued to reconnect and disconnect until i ran out of bullets so he began to shoot me back with his sniper rifle. So, I disconnected too, fed up with this sh*t. I made a screenshot, but I dont know if it is him, because it appeared the only first time. Time was near after to 11:29 [uTC+1], (but it seems your server has a different time). Hope this helped to ban a retarded kiddie. If someone has better ideas to how notify this to FI 1 admins, feel free to tell.

Hey, i want an information. I was sniping a guy (and i got him) in FI 1, but i saw he dc (he disappeared), but re entered game in less than a minute... like he could press the abort button on the ESC menu. Is it possible? I got him about 8 times with a hunting sniper, how the f*ck did he survive? EVERY TIME I could see the blood cloud, and his body going down unconsious. But the idiot continued to reconnect and disconnect until i ran out of bullets so he began to shoot me back with his sniper rifle. So, I disconnected too, fed up with this sh*t. I feel like the only stupid one who keeps get shooted (and killed) on sight, and that can' do the same for unfair players disconnecting.

This happened few days ago north of stary sobor...

Why rob when killing is easier?

Shut up... DayZ is a FFA DM with a large map... like your idea, i wish i could make my suggestions for killstreak reward: 1kill: mak ammo 2: backpack 3: UAV 4: Random Airdrop with rifles 5: Bulletproof jacket 6: Call in an Apache 7: Call in an A10 (with designation laser) 8: Artillery strike 9: AC130 Bombing 10: Space Shuttle 11: Atomic Nuke from space

I wonder why a bandit should use a slot to take tranquilizer bullets... This will prevent survivors killing each others, but bandits (as the 80% of this game) will ignore this feature and continue to kill for fun as they already do. Also, a melee weapon that knocks out is useless, can't get so close to an enemy without be spotted.

AI bot that give you challenges? WTF?! loot is already a reward. People are killing just for fun and increasing k/d rateo, and you want to increment this sh*t?

Why not? :D

We all noticed that this game is full of pkers. They do it just for fun. Just to share a screenshoot of their debug monitor with 100 murders. Tents resolve partially the frustation of getting killed, you can get a decent equipment once you reach the tent (but you have 2 days to find another one). I don't think there is a solution, because many people will always say "ohh STFU this is our playstyle", i would agree, but what playstyle is this? Killing players before they get a menace? also survivors do it (they only wait until spotted). If in a group of bandits, shoot on sight on everything? also survivors do it. So we are all using the same style. Going in the coast screaming for help won't make you a survivor, because in the case you dont get shotted (just because the player you'll find won't have a gun),you will start to loot and once you see somebody with a gun one km inland you will shoot. Guaranteed. The only solution IMHO is to abort this project, and start a new one with not zeds, but ALIENS (Day:A? :D). Several types of aliens. Great resistence to bullets (need cooperation to kill one of those). Human beings will be more close each other against the space menace. I'd like something related to Falling skyes (this mod is relating to The Walking Dead, which i prefere to FA, but it will always be a FFA Deathmatch).

I managed to live 5 days, before i decide to move to NWAF with a friend and get killed by ALT+F4ers (luckly, i hide my best gear in a tent). But: I got Killed in middle of camps 2 kms while killing a cow. I got killed while running near Vyshone (how is it typed? :D). Me and my friend killed 3 guys outside mogilevka as they shoot us with no reason. I killed a guy who was shooting someone else (and probably killed him) north of guglovo as he spotted me. I know some places are full of bandits, and if i meet some one there, he is a bandit/bandit group for sure. I play in a team often, if I am alone i don't play at all or at least to check my tents. But I know this simple rule "A survivor is a bandit that hasn't shoot you yet". And it was always true.

I was typing something, but, in the end, this game is now broken. PKers won't stop. Ever. You have two choises: Become one of them or stop play this game.
