You actually can script vehicles to be un-enterable. In fact, many vanilla missions already do this. This could work I think.

I always return fire, if someone is going to kill me I want them to at least suffer for it. I've once mortally wounded a bandit who killed me.

I already suggested this but my thread got erased. I definitely would love this though.

If I recall correctly' date=' it's icons for AI squadmates or people who are under your command. I THINK. [/quote'] People really don't play vanilla...yeah, they are. The player in the screenshot is the squad leader of those women.

I'm always friendly. If not, then who will be? Everyone here says that they assume everyone else is a bandit, that makes you one yourself for shooting on sight. I refuse to be a bandit, my RoE is purely defensive.

This game will not fix itself. Every strategy, mentality, and pattern that happens in-game is a result of player experience. If you want to stop the shoot on sight mentality, then don't adopt it yourself. Offer to help others, make friends, try to actively oppose this type of behavior. I see many people who simply go "I'm just going to avoid other players", or worse, "Fuck it, I'm shooting on sight too". You are not helping, you are contributing to the problem. The only thing you can do is fight against it, if a player shoots you anyways, then tough break. Try again. You are taking a risk by adopting this mentality, but if you do not take that risk, then you are simply making the situation worse (for yourself). If you want to PvP, then fine that's what you wanna do. This game is what you make of it. I'm not criticizing bandits, I'm criticizing hypocrites.

Exactly. This game nor it's developer will fix itself. It is up to the community to stop complaining and actually oppose this behavior in-game.

This is one of the dumbest suggestions ever. Do you even think before you type? Do you have any idea how much new players die? I've stalked and watched them' date=' it takes the average idiot gamer a good 5-10 deaths at least before they get a clue, if you put a 48h period between dying sessions it'll never sink in. Also, the bandits will just grief harder because they'll have a bigger effect. [/quote'] I'm guessing you're one of the run and gun, disposable life guys. "Hmm, I'm gonna try Day Z, looks fun!" *Gets killed by zombie* "Well I'm still new at this game, let me try again" YOU CANNOT LOG IN FOR [48] HOURS "....fuck this game" *leaves forever* And that's what'll happen if that idea is implemented.

Actually' date=' Rocket said to suggest "mechanics" not "wishy washy ideas." [/quote'] That's kinda what I mean't but okay...

No, people say they want the game harder. This makes the game harder. I don't see you suggesting any actual mechanics. When I say I want the game to be harder, I mean I actually want the game AS IS to be harder. No new mechanics or punishments or anything. ITS JUST HARDER.

People need to stop suggesting "New Mechanics" and "Balances". Rocket has already said that this is an Anti-game where balancing isn't the priority.

Well, nothing is going to change in the game, so I'll keep doing that until they leave the server and go to another one. No suggestions in here will get any positive effect because there's too much people together and there's no way to filter the shitties from the goodies, so everyone is pissing in a sea of piss. Can I join you?

Make everything harder. Everything. Also, zombies inside forests.

I have a question. Is this game supposed to focus on realism or fun? That's all I'm gonna say, because both sides in this argument are fucking stupid.

I remember a while back while screwing around in the editor that waypoints had a "Join up" and "Join up and lead" setting. When I tried it in the editor, my squad would literally join the other squad. I was wondering if there was a way this could be implemented in Day Z, nameplates could be enable for squads only and it could probably help quite a bit in other situations. What if your squad could pick a squad skin so you could recognize them right off the bat? Things like that. Thoughts?

I agree to this. It's never happened to me yet, but after hearing how upset someone was when they did this I realized that the menu is yet another enemy. BEWARE THE EVIL MENU OF DOOM.

Seems like a good idea overall, although obviously you would want to limit how far you could see him. Pretty sure I CAN'T recognize someone from a mile away, no matter how long I've known 'em XD
