If we are going to assume the cold/warmth system is fully realistic it is VERY easy to start freezing the way we run around in the game. Low temperature and a sweaty body= freezing But then again who knows how the system works. And really they should make a guide on how it works so that we know whats bugged and whats intended....

...and play dayz and go to his house ingame while being there for real.....mindblow

If they did that u would have a shitstorm from players that cant deal with nighttime being pitch black in a game.

I get from the posts in the thread that some ppl feel cannibalism would be to extreme. In that way, if it was implemented, u would also have natural aversion against using it in the game. And thats a good thing...it would work as intended. It would be the last resort, u really dont wanna do it...but its either die or eat ur "friend". Maybe some will choose to die instead. I think some need to put things in perspective too. If u feel cannibalism would be to extreme, to brutal and violent...there is already equally brutal and violent gameplay in the game. There are also other games, like Mortal Online, that have cannibalism. And its not used for making trollvideos on you tube or anything like that. Human carcasses are used in recipes etc. Cannibalism in Dayz would be even more fitting with its emphasis on survival.

I have no need to tell ppl that im the sickest most vile survivor in the game...fine I am. Whats ur point? The thread isnt about me...its about adding a new survival feature to the game. Its based on what u can do in the real world. If u have any logically objectivly base argument that say we should...then say so. I have made several good arguments for cannibalism in the game now. Whether im the sickest dayz player isnt relevant at all. Djez...its like some of u would be scared if cannibalism was added to the game.

Again it dosent matter if u could kill a zombie with a axe or not...I mean who in the real world actually has the factual information about how hard it is to kill a zombie with a axe? No one! Ur argument that cannibalism is not realistic because there is enough of other resources just fails big time. U can still eat ppl no matter how much resorces there are...its realistic. And it is a objectiv argument because u can actually do it in real life. Infact it is just unrealistic to not have it! Im not gonna spend more time with ur silly arguments

Ur argument that we dont need cannibalism because u can survive in other ways is still not valid in any way. And again...u could make the same argument for guns. We dont need guns in Dayz cos u could defend urself with other weapons like axes...silly rhetoric if u ask me. Cannibalism adds a new layer of survival to Dayz, just as fishing, hunting and scavaging does. Acording to ur arguments I could say we need to remove fishing in Dayz because we could just hunt animals instead. Do u not see sillyness in that argument? Ofc we want fishing in the game, along with other cool features that collectively adds to the survival aspect of Dayz. At best ur argument is just a personal preference...not a objectively based argument that clearly says that cannibalism should not be in Dayz. Objectively cannibalism is totally realistic. It adds another layer of survival to the game...and adds uniqueness too. If u dont like it...dont eat ppl then ...but I would eat u.. And lol, u dont need a ranged weapon to survive in dayz...u need ranged weapons because other players have it too. I only use the axe/blunt weapon to deal with zombies.

Well sure, u could survive in dayz that way if u know what u know. But most dayz players dont know that stuff. Most ppl I know would panic if they had been left alone in the wild and struggle to survive. Thats a fact. And the argument "we dont need it because u could survive on other ways" is not really relevant. We dont need guns either....and alot of stuff thats in the game already. But we still have those things cos it adds to the layers to the game. Like I said to u earlier.

That said...u could still eat ppl. And living of the land is not as easy as u portray it. Ive see numerous documentaries where ordinary ppl try to live of the land for a certain amount of time...they all struggle. If u wanna be nomadic its even harder. I myself spend quite some time in the wilderness...its not like grabbing a rabbit when ur hungry, or live of berries or whatever.

This is it....this would differensiate Dayz from all the other zombie games out there. Its extreme...but entirely realistic

I already said why....Because it adds to the atmosphere they are trying to create in the first place. Its a horror game! It makes the game brutal and extreme. If food is scarce it would add alot of tension to the game when players have the option to kill and eat another player. Maybe u really dont want to eat another player, but have to cos ull die of starvation if not.

I wish we could wound a player...and eat them while they where still alive. Like in the mod when u saw the zombie eating u just before u died

There will always be enough food to go around in dayz...im saying out of the 100% we have, eating humans should count for some of the food u can find. That means less beans in the game for instance. We dont need to talk about whats logically available food ingame....there is a certain amount of food available, humans should be a part of that. Why?? Because it adds to the atmosphere they are trying to create in the first place. Its a horror game! Its not relevant if cannibalism has historically occured during the winter in the real world. A zombie apocalypse hasnt happend in the real world....so I dont see the relevance here.

I use none of the above options...I simply know the map after playing dayz since the mod edit oh yea I see u have a navigate by memory thing...yes i navigate by memory...sorry om drunk, so yea know th map

Couldnt care less about what gun, gunpart or bullet type they add next....

I believe u can search for sticks on the ground and use those...not 100% sure! That said...its not about starting a fire, its about starting a fire that gives off enough heat. And that is kinda hard to achieve with small sticks. So in fairness it is realistic that if u want a fire that dries ur clothes and warms u up, u need logs burning. Burning sticks isnt gonna do much good when ur cold and wet.

But what if the sniper is listening to loud music on his soviet era mp3 player so he wont hear the chopping...

I would like to climb up trees to get vantage points and snipe ppl from them.

probaly some found out that u can make a bazooka if u combine all the items u can find in the game.

Probaly cos they spent time solving other problems...dont need alot of brainpower to figure that out

Not reading that...try again person that isnt a mug

Just wondering what the community feel about this as it is a gameplay element that is pretty much up to the community to decide. Im wondering about the general trend we have had in the stable build up until now...generally there has been very little issue with finding food/water if u ask me. Do u want the game to be like this when its done? Played experimental 2 days ago and it was one of those builds where food/water was very scarce for some reason...bugged probaly. And I must say the game changes alot when that happends...suddenly its not "hey im hungry, where is the nearest house so I can grab a couple cans of beans...I might even go sweet peaches exclusively cos there is food getting stuffed in my face everywhere I go"... Suddenly I actually have to go to town, check every house, even the tall buildings...every room...to survive. And I like that. For me it has been a consistent annoying issue that food/drink is to easy to find. I dont need to go hunting, dont need a fishing pole...dont need to kill u for food, or team up with u to find food. U get my point.

Just got killed by a hacker who clipped through the walls like it was good ol doom

New running animation does indeed look like a granny is running...but is easly solved by manning up and playing 1st person only... ...or enjoy being a granny in 3rd person bwhaha!
