Right The reasoning behind this is that there is now way anyone could carry a typical car engine. The have to be extracted by an engine crane and worked on from there. even with all the extra parts stripped the block itself would be damn hard to lift by hand. That being said we do have to be able to carry these parts to the vehicle we want to repair. I would do this. Make the engine a craftable item requiring a few parts to build b4 placing it in the car. Maybe something like this- Block - 12 slots Header - 3 slots Pistons - 1 slot each Sump - 4 slots Maybe more to make it harder, but obviously it carnt be broken down into a ridiculous amount of parts, just enough to make it more realistic. Each part could be fitted sepratly and cars could be found in various states of repair. Also could inspire more "trade" between players for vital parts.

All that is cured with 1st only server.....you all want 1st only....then get on those 1st servers and show up that they will be populated. But they NEVER do, as other people have said the ones that have been out fr what....a week...less?? are already de-populating. You want to play dayz first only.....you can......i want to play 3rd....i can.....tell me again why i should loose 3rd because a VERY SMALL amount of people prefer 1st. AND after the devs hav kindly provided for this minority.

Theres only 2 reasons the servers would be unpopulated....1) The friends issue....had it myself on vanilla arma2, but more for game-modes.....some friends refuse to play domination....some refuse to play CTI. But that dosent stop me enjoying them alone or with other friends. 2) and i think the most likely......a small minority are making a mountain out of a molehill....the demand simply isnt there for 1st only. Even knowing this from the mods the devs have added the option. But some poeple still arent happy....hey it didnt work on a small scale....let do it to the whole game....dont get it lol

Nametags....disabled.....built in arma 2 option on expert servers Squads......spawn as an un grouped individual.......anyone can do that on the editor What markes?? the ones you place....in arma vanilla What teams?? dont get that one HUD....Yes very intuative and an awsome creation.......never made it into arma 2 and didnt appear in arma 3 Inventory......very nicely reskinned......but only late in the mods life......never made it into arma 3....in fact dayz SA uses closer to A3's inventyory system. What missions? Mutiplayer architecture in the mod was completly vanilla arma.....hence the reason to make the SA Il give you the last one ;) Dayz didnt change Arma2, if i fire up combined opps there isnt a hint of dayz in there atall. Who is going to exploit 3rd person on your 1st person server? answer NOBODY

Hmmm dunno i kinda liked it lol, Instead of seeing a map instantly dreaming of a DMR on NWA sniper hill is now a bit different. You could only get the south bit (btw you can do it in 2 bits north and south ;)). I got lost up north yesterday because i only have the south bit and a new road conned me good style lol. Thats something i miss from my first days in the mod. Being completely lost and no idea where im heading :) Iv got a Road Map of england....dosent have all the roads on it though, I would have to get a map of Chester to get proper road layouts for there. I know thats on a much bigger scale but i think thats what they were going for. Might look better if the maps looked torn, so your finding a ripped off part of it. Not a complete map that only shows such a small area.

Its not its presence....its the fact it had continued to be present for those 10 years. Its a popular feature. And im sorry but weather your play style is catered for or not is completely relevent. As it stands you can have you experience of hardcore, I can have my 3rd.....give me 1 good reason to strip 3rd person away now that we have the server options.....just 1... If your experience is catered for why this need to try and interfere with other peoples. If you want to play the first person the 3rd servers will not effect you 1 bit. Theres no gain in taking away a popular feature, not for players and not for the game. Now your going off topic.....what exactly did dayz change about arma2? Appart from using it as a platform for some genius scripting. And now its about how dayz helped arma sales....this is 3rd person debate....like i say... give me one good reason to strip it out now?

Nope....we arent trying to take something away form 1st person players......you however are trying to take what has been an integral part of the game for many years away.....and simply for your preference....which as stated is already catered for. You dont see people that play 3rd saying we should completly remove 1st.....because that would be a better comparison.

I heard that the water level was constent, and to make a river all the terrain would have to be lowwered to that sea level. That bieng said, iv seen all those little streams everywhere, that makes me think it is possible. It would be great to have aswell. A nice new use for boats, well, make boats usable lol. And all the things in OP. Give us a river!

BURN THE HERETIC!!! Only combat log vs zeds man.....even though those 2 sounded like A holes. As a whole i dont think we need to worry about combat logging too much. The devs know about it and its an easy fix. But to me it comes under the header of balance, like, its not critical to the game functioning at this stage. Im probably wrong but i think that could come a lot further down the line. Dont forget your going to log in to all your loot gone often as the alpha progresses :)

From what iv read servers are the main priority for the near future. Also some info about other things they want to sort out here.... http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/156129-confirmed-upcoming-features-for-dayz/#entry1564197

Im not getting sucked into the old circle debate. Some people wanted 1st only.....some wanted it to stay the same.....now theres both options, and 1st has the level playing field they wanted.....we all got what we wanted....why isnt everyone happy! lol

56 things...il just do 5 ;) 1, Respawning Zeds 2. Respawning Loot 3, A river, somehow lol 4. Predetor Animals 5. Carnt wait to see how the north part of the map comes along :) 6, 3rd person!!! JK ;)

Thats a great idea. Maybe a new item "canoe bag" Its like a rubber inner for your backpack that keeps everything dry. Used one when i was in Malaysia. Im thinking drag to backpack then a "combine for waterproof pack" option,very imersive, especialy if Utes makes an apperance again and we have to do some swimming. You could pack all your cloths in it then swim with it on your back. When i used mine the trapped air even made it act a a buoyancy device if the river got deep quick :D

Well the player trend says you will loose many many players if you completly remove it. It would mess up the game for me completly. Yes theres issues with deviding players but thats probbably the best option to keep everyone happy. If you still want it completly removed then you are just bieng stubborn. Like i said...everybody won. Also, that vid removes the "they can see past walls" argument, wich is the fundimental problem people have with 3rd. Add that and there isnt even any need for 1st only servers. Let alone trying to make the whole game 1st person.

Get in there quick and try it then lol ;)

You are right its too early for adding this stuff. I wouldnt expect to see anything like this till late 2014. But that dosent mean we carnt fill the devs heads with ideas :)

Id like this....nothing to do when your fully geared, built your camp, and have 6 of every gun.....no problem. Leave all your gear at camp and go play songs to fresh spawns...or challenge them to a game of chess :)

Guess you already tried the new 1st person servers to reset it? EDIT - Meh seprate hive ....forgot about that sry.

I like it, adds more realism and immersion. I was leaning towards zombies agroing from a cough as i read, but as you say if they just wander towards the noise it would be good. Its like how they had it in the mod where zeds slowly gravitated towards the player. Made setting ambushes close to towns hard. Maybe if your too close to a zombie it will agro from a loud cough. Then you could litteraly say to a buddy...."im too ill to go.....can you go fetch me my pills" haha

This is a pointless argument thread now....everybody won. We got both dedicated 1st person and normal servers. I vote yard it lol :P

Oh dont worry about that, they will be respawning like in the mod eventually :) loot respawn is planned aswell....check this one out... http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/156129-confirmed-upcoming-features-for-dayz/#entry1564197

So i installed swat 4 again the other day and im loving it. I remember Dean mentioning something about wanting to do less lethal, and i think he should look to Swat 4 as inspiration. Strait From swat some things i would like to see - Stinger grenades Flashbangs CS Gas (another use for gas mask aswell) Tazer Rubber bullets (rifles) Bean bag rounds (shotguns) What im thinking is that these new military buildings in towns that iv dubbed police stations for now, would spawn this sort of gear. The only lethal thing they could spawn would be a pistol. Some things alreaady exsist as arma 2 mods.... Tazer Gas grenade Flashbang Im not sure how to implement rubber/beanbag rounds. Maybe a reskinned existing ammo with a stupidly low damage rating but still the chance to bleed. Also dont know how they would do stinger grenades. Maybe like flashbangs, but instead of triggering the white screen could trigger unconcious for x seconds. Or Just restricted movement and blurry screen. Also i thought it would be cool to introduce paintball guns. They could do no damage (though irl they can hurt like a bi**h). Say 5 hits and you start to limp for 10-20 secs. Also using the current blood effect on cloaths we could paint each other lol. Tag a bandit with red paint or shoot all your team members in the face so you look like something off Braveheart :D. But a hit to the face should blind you for a few seconds at least (maybe more). Paintball guns could be used against zombies, hitting them in the face could make em start running round randomly for 30 seconds giving you time to escape. Add the CS gas paintball rounds from swat and you have a great ranged way of incapacitating people :)

Riggs all the way! and tnx Groover :)

You may be right.....tbh im not exactly sure on that one. Maybe its something to do with the shares hive system for private hives.

Not bieng mean....but try a search first next time ;) Technicaly the zombies are infected humans....not classic undead zombies. Its a virus thats infected them all, and us survivors are immune to it ;)
