  1. So how does one know when there might be a situation that they get cold other than seeing the thermometer drop? If there's no avoidance of that situation, a dropping thermometer is just arbitrary and dumb.
  2. I wonder how much money I would make selling gimp masks with "DAYZ" printed on them to all of the 40 masochists who still enjoy playing this mod when all of this stuff is implemented.

    Timing of Patch 1.5.8

    It makes me want to keep playing 1.5.7 so he never releases it. 1.5.8 sounds like it's getting worse and worse. I agree. Getting too spergy survivalist for me. I remember when Day Z was fun and wasn't a game for masochists who actively hated doing anything in the game that could be considered fun.
  4. There needs to be more potato salad to go with all of these baked beans.

    Admitted Duping and Hacking 20+ LLKJ members

    A group of the aforementioned clan who may or may not use the clan tag "LLJK" has outright and willfully conspired and carried out a savage attempt at drowning an innocent survivor the other day. I have it on good authority that there was much laughing going on at the time, followed by a collective moment of extreme awkwardness when they found out that they couldn't actually drown the guy. This group of bandits, "LLJK", then willfully and without regard of the pubbie's hardcore survival, then had the audacity to bandage and heal the survivor for being a good sport and not disconnecting. They even went so far as to give the hardcore survivalist pubbie a makarov and a clip! Then the clan "LLJK" almost ran him over not 10 minutes later. I submit to you that these are heinous acts of something or other and that the scales of justice will someday tilt somewhere!

    Holster pistol

    K. I thought i saw some guy with a pistol do it once. I haven't tried it myself.

    Holster pistol

    You can bind a key in your options to 'surrender' which puts both of your hands in the air. It should also be known that \ is the default for salute and ' is the default for sitting down. IIRC, most 'holster pistol' scripts out there work like this: 1. mouse wheel choose 'holster' 2. script saves what pistol you had, how many mags you had 3. script deletes your pistol and mags 4. tada! no pistol and just 'hands' 5. mouse wheel to select 'draw pistol' 6. server gets data about what you had 7. puts pistol and mags in your inventory

    Admitted Duping and Hacking 20+ LLKJ members

    I am willing to testify that certain members of the "LLJK" clan have conspired and carried out multi-server searches to see if helicopters have spawned anywhere just so they could fix them and maybe fly them for a few minutes before crashing them or being dumb and getting shot down, or getting kicked from battleeye for flying one- sending all of its passengers to a horrific death on the outskirts of Pusta. I repeat, I have proof that certain members of "LLJK" have conspired to do something else other than sneak around zombies and eat beans in your hardcore survival alpha mod.

    Rocket launcher is underpowered

    Why would you shoot a rocket at people in a mod based off a military sim?

    Bandit/Survivor Morphing to be removed

    While you try to figure out what or if humanity will be used for anything, change the wording in the debug monitor from "Humanity" to "Bean Rank". Either that or add a counter that keeps track of how many cans of beans I've eaten.
  11. All AI entities may teleport inside a building every now and then if their AI pathing/scripting tells them they should be in that building. It's an imperfect workaround to the imperfect pathing of AI.

    The New Zombie Count is AWESOME

    Stop comparing this video game mod to non-existent real life zombie apocalypse. Once you do that, it might help some of you understand why the rest of us are getting bored by having to sneak around for an hour in a town to get a can of beans.
  13. I think a lot of people are guilty of telling others how to play. The only thing we can all be honest about is why we do or do not think it is fun, or what prevents them from having fun.
  14. Because there's nothing to show that you're working together other than the fact that there's someone else near you who hasn't managed to shoot you yet. Maybe if the game made it possible to join squads or groups, things would get a bit better. Maybe if there were other goals it took a lot of people to accomplish.

    The New Zombie Count is AWESOME

    The more I think about it, this might be the case. This game is for masochists. Honestly, what has anyone accomplished in this game? You ran around in the wilderness for 20 minutes, spent an hour walking through a town for a can of beans. Maybe you killed a few zombies. Maybe you spent 3 hours with 8 other guys building a car or a chopper. Then what did you do? Well you drove/flew to a city to sneak around town for more beans. I guess you could search around for the best loot in the game. After that, then what? I'm really bored with the game in that I spend most of the time walking or sneaking around. I've got good guns, but there's no reason to use them. Killing zombies just begets more zombies, and makes me even more aware that I've accomplished absolutely nothing. So, with that, it would be nice if: 1. It was possible to clear a city of zombies, if even for a short while 2. the respawn timer was less ridiculous 3. Had other goals or objectives Sure, this is a survival sandbox game. I've survived. I did the sandbox thing. Now I fail to see the point in why I keep playing. Having insane amounts of zombies and quick respawn is probably the wake-up call for me to realize how much fun I haven't been having.

    Suggestion: fine tune new zed behaviors

    All of that stuff would be pretty sweet.
  17. Please stop comparing this game to a non-existent real world zombie apocalypse scenario. It is a video game. It isn't as much the number of zombies that upsets me, its the consequences: 1. They cannot be evaded 2. They will never stop chasing you unless you kill them 3. They run fast and zig zag 4. They respawn before you can clear them all 5. They teleport into buildings With lower zombie population, the above problems were bearable. Now they are not. Maybe if some or all of those points are fixed, it will make the increase in zombies tolerable.

    The New Zombie Count is AWESOME

    I don't want it to turn into COD either. I just want to be able to feel like I accomplish something other than "Snuck around in a city for an hour avoiding zombies, got a can of beans. Boy, I can't wait to log into the game tomorrow and do some more awesome survival stuff where maybe I can refill my canteen! Because that's realistic survival!" Constant sneak and survival is pretty tedious. I've been playing this game for a while and most of it has been around quick in and outs in cities for quick stuff, another 20 minutes running around in the woods. Now its even more harrowing to move around a town because there are a ton more zombies to avoid. I've got a gun, I want to be able to shoot it once in a while without having to worry if I have enough ammo, or if I feel like running in and out of a house, up and down a hill to take advantage of game exploits to help me deal with super fast zombies who you can't hide from once they are alerted, who can teleport into buildings, will never, ever stop chasing you, and respawn 3 minutes after you kill them anyway. Some people might consider that fun. I don't. I'm sure I'm not alone. Even those who wanted a break from COD gameplay who were lured to this game from other sites will drop it and think of this as that boring zombie game where all you do is crawl and look for beans.

    This is a video game. Stop comparing it to hypothetically real apocalypse scenarios.

    1.5.7 update

    Movies last 1.5 hours. You are supposed to live for long periods of time in the game. This requires doing the things people in the movies do in those periods of time between scenes. That's not particularly fun. When I play video games' date=' i play them to do things. Not to avoid doing anything at all. [/quote'] Did you ever play arma 2? Yes. I played OFP, Arma, Arma II. Played a bunch of mods in all three games, including ACE, FDF, etc. Made a bunch of multiplayer missions, some I think I even submitted for others than my group to play. Played with Shaktac. Suffered through Rob Sanders missions. I even helped a dude write a guide for people to use his group spawn script. That resume good enough for you, bro?
