  1. I think PvP is the biggest part of this game, and those that PvE should probably expect players to be a part of the environment, or play on a special PvE server on a Seperate Hive, but with that being said, i like a bandit system, it just shouldn't punish PvP, it should punish Continuous killing of unarmed fresh spawns. that with less frequent ammo, would be a good start. bandit system: when i say punish, players should be able to identify a bandit, that's it With less frequent ammo, if you shoot anything that moves, you quickly run out of ammo, there would be a lot more running away, hiding, Sneaking, stalking, you would shoot in self-preservation, or kill for better gear.

    [SA] Make the World less Static

    Yeah had that thought myself, but i have heard Rocket talking about redoing the Action/Interaction system, so hopefully its coming.
  4. If you can make it in dayz, you can find it on google, that's what would happen, not much ingenuity about that, but as long as i can keep my Mosin, i'm fine with i't i just don't see the point then, for guns that is.

    Bandit Culture

    I like to think Dayz is in the early days or at least Chernarus plus is, that way it makes sense to find loot in houses military Bases.....

    Safehouses +other ideas

    I don't like your safehouses, but i would like something that is a lot more secure then tents, that doesn't despawn, or gets wiped, shouldn't be 100% secure, some thing like the underground stuff, rocket has been talking about. nothing should be 100% secure in dayz,me and my friend one night LOL=> https://zombies.nu/community/threads/9139/

    Spawning: Less-frequent Ammo

    Yes, i agree, this is the early days of alfa, loot/Ammo Balancing is coming.
  8. thomas28

    Signaling / Reflection

    Yes, good idea, perhaps the scope flare Should depend on you, being in the shade or not, just for simplicity.

    Spawning: Less-frequent Ammo

    Yes, hopefully we will have all the types of ammo, for example 762, 762X39 / 762X51 / 762X54R and maybe 300 win mag.... i got a bit worried the first time i saw, the ammo just saying 7.62 and not 7.62X54R for the mosin

    Spawning: Less-frequent Ammo

    Yes, that will get better Incrementally, as more and more loot/gun's gets added to the alfa.

    Armor plates

    like it, but what is traditionally called a "bulletproof vest" is a Kevlar vest, and a combat vests is just for your gear, the Correct terminology would be plate carrier, and most plate carriers, are MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) i hope we see this modular pouch system in the final version of dayz. for plate's, ceramic rifle plate's are the most common rifle plate's, used in nato and the us army, they can stop a few AK / M4 rounds up to about 7, and one round of 762X51 and 762X54R M14/M24/Mosin/SVD.... and they only cover a small part of your torso, not much bigger then a A4 piece of paper on your Chest, and the Weight of two rifle plate's is about the same as three M4 carbine's. a side note: I hope we see a Weight system in SA, and if so you have to make multiple Decisions that you don't worry about now. like do i want rifle plate's..... do i want a backpack.... do i go single plate in the front and hope my friends don't accidentally shoot me in the back.......

    Duel melee (not what you think)

    not sure, but have you tried using space to change your Swing, does that work ? ?
  13. thomas28

    Well at least I've got my health.

    30 - 45 Minutes respawn time maybe, but even then i still see your point.
  14. thomas28

    Hot keys for flashlights, bipod...

    Yes, should have that option, pc master race.
  15. I like the military Stuff and i think and hope it isn't going away, it should just be Rare. I don't like the idea of crafting my gun, i find it less plausible then finding hunting Rifles or a Mosin in eastern europe (100USD for a Mosin in the us) some countries have less restrictive gun laws. side note: I don't think 45ACP is very realistic in eastern europe, i don't think its adopted by nato and the us army uses the M9 and the p226, i might be wrong though.

    (SA) Chopper crash/random event idea

    Like it, more thing's that make the world seem alive, is a good thing. I would like to see more random spawn's, for example: deer stand's, old crash sites..... and the Occasional heli or jet flying overhead would add to the atmosphere of dayz i think, crash or not.

    [SA] Caffeine Mechanic

    i like it,but heroin is used as a painkiller. heroin = "diacetylmorphine" or "morphine diacetate" perhaps heroin can be used as morphine.
  18. Good ideas, i don't see the KOS as a big problem, just a part of the game, but i like the idea of respawn cool down maybe 1 or 2 hours , it would stop the massive traffic on the coast, and in the big fights you won't have all the fresh spawn's running around trying to get their gear back.
  19. Sticks + rope = shooting Sticks -Added stability in the kneeling position, when shooting Sticks is deployed.-Limits movement when deployed.-Shooting Sticks + gun = Shooting Sticks deployed. a side note:Right now i think you are to stable when running, stopping, shooting, my crosshair is barely moving, if you were less stable even when kneeling or prone andt their were more shaking after running, it would make sniping be a much more stationary deal, and making shooting Sticks and bipods needed for longer ranges. Just an idea, but shooting Sticks could be fairly useful as you rarely have much vision when prone.

    Identification markers / "party system"

    Yes, i think i'ts confirmed.
  21. There is a suppressor attachment for the M4 the exact effects i'm not sure of. here is how i would like suppressors to be in dayz sa. - Make them rare, rare for 556, very rare for 762 and extremely rare for 338.- Suppressors gets worn fairly Quick compared to a Rifle.- A worn-out suppressor doesn't suppress the sound as well, could course point of impact shift,and maybe it could blow-up in your face do to baffle strike. Suppressor effects on weapon system - Removes or reduces muzzle flash.- Reduces dust Kick-op. - Reduces recoil. - Camouflaging and Reducing the sound signature.- Thus not add more drop or time of flight, either Thus it Reduce the accuracy or velocity / damage.- Maybe it changes your point of impact a bit, maybe you could also zero that out. - It adds weight to the weapon system at the muzzle, if that will have a effect on Shouldering your Rifle for extended periods of time.- It gets hot, perhaps you can't remove it until the Suppressor has Cooled down. and would be cool to see smoke come off the can. My thoughts on suppressors in dayz, what's yours ?
  22. thomas28

    suppressors in standalone what do we want?

    Yes, the russian version, do keep in mind that is special subsonic ammunition, think handgun powder amounts of powder / velocity / damage. with full power ammunition / normal power ammunition, that bottle will be blown away or blown in pieces, and if not it will start burning just from the Amounts of heat its trapping. i't should work with .22 and we will soon have a Ruger 10/22.

    Welcome to the Psikhuskas (Mental institution)

    nope, good idea though, i look forward to seeing those Nurses outfit's in action.
  24. The SBR (Short Barrel Rifle) is not a great weapon system the reason they exist is for fighting from Vehicle's. so i'm Suggesting that you should be able too shoot out of cars with handguns subguns and Short Barrel Rifle's. that will give sub machine guns and SBR's a place Besides just being a place holder until you find something better, and when you're car is under fire it gives the Passengers something to do, besides panicking or praying. when i say "SBR" this is it 7.5" Barrelled m4/ar15's, AK74U 8.3in, G36C 9in.... for comparison a M4 is a 16" Barrel and M16 is 18" Barrel, M24 is 24" I don't think this will be overpowered as the SBR is underpowered.
  25. yes, way down the pipeline i know. SUV snipers nest OP lol. time of flight and drop should do the trick.
