The loot only spawns in enterable buildings

I've seen numerous posts regarding people who has "finished" everything they ever wanted to do in DayZ and being so confident about it, they said that this mod is boring now since you just jog, kill, eat, drink. The point is people who haven't played ArmA 2 before obviously haven't experienced combat situations (not players vs. zombies) wherein you have to wait so long that the people who bought DayZ would just be moaning in the mic to do something while we wait to strike after creating a strategy. It's just absurd for the fact that ArmA 2, a fantastic open-world game is being suggested by some people to have OBJECTIVES, TRADERS, NPCs which is really stupid, I don't even need to explain myself why. It's just that some people can't understand the principle of a open-world game such as ArmA 2, It's not about finishing objectives, collecting achievements, leveling up, and so on and so forth. It's about making your own path, making your own story, your own decisions affect your progress in the future. It's all about paving your adventure. TL;DR 1. People who bought DayZ probably expects Call Of Duty zombies-style if not, BF3 sized maps 2. They realize ArmA 2 is a slow-paced simulator 3. They get bored, grief for the fun of it 4. Whine on the forums, suggests stupid entities(Traders, Quests, Achievements) 5. Leave

Septus, I've seen some people suggesting traders as in NPCs. @Tsukasasun I believe the vanilla AI is also horrible, but zeus_AI is one hell of a beast.. anyway objectives, quests, jobs.. whatever you call them I disagree with them since it doesn't seem to fit this type of sandbox game. Why? I expect that every objective on the map would have at least not one but two snipers aiming at it while players are looting/checking it out.. It's just a matter of principle that those things doesn't fit ArmA 2. Trying to find a helicopter is already liek a personal objective, and finding good weapons/skins/food/medical supplies is already like a objective reward for it

Welcome to a decent game made by a great company, SLASH-7

Good to see that someone actually likes ArmA 2 because of it's utter realism.. *brofist*

Did the same thing, except it took 30 minutes before we even stepped off the base. FNG's can't even get a proper loadout. this is on ACE btw

I like the "Bandits become drug addicts part" the last thing we need than desperate survivors who are labeled bandits are ones that are high on drugs lol. Anyway, why not if a player was killed by a gun but was not touched by a zombie, a disease is highly unlikely unless if the player is already diseased by something before getting killed by a player. Looting a dead person must give you shaky hands, fast breathing(similar to running but in a more panicky way), and also why not add crying sounds? I'm not trying to make all you looters sound like a bitch. But let's face it psychologically you would think in your mind in real life that "Am I doing the right thing?" "What killed him? "Is the killer aiming at me right now?" basically those things come up while you are looting the dead body which should drastically affect your character's mental status.

Even JSRS doesn't have this.. sounds like a plan! (To the people who bought ArmA 2 for the mod) JSRS is a great sound mod mostly coupled with ACE for more immersion.. that is all you need to know

Suicide Bomber Zombies! We're doomed!!!!

Since I'm a forest explorer or someone who moves through the trees and vegetation, I never get into cities unless when I need to link up with my clan mates.. now my question is do these new clothing spawn in barns or at buildings NOT from Chernogorsk or Elektro? I've been on the search for these yesterday but still no avail. Can anyone at least give me a clue to the spawn rate of these things and on what buildings? Thanks in advance :)

Has anyone found a skin that has a helmet provided?? or a vietnam-era skin?

That's kinda supportive FishSticks.. but what I was really hoping for was a ghillie suit so that I may now be one with nature.. sniping people :D

***********FIX*********** I made a request to reset my character in order to regain my visibility as a last resort, it worked within one hour and I'm back to the default gear and survival skin and I just respawned.. It worked for me ***********FIX************

Player name:WolfSixNiner Player ID:2361217 Reason of request: Player is invisible to other players for 3 days now, I can't play DayZ while invisible since that would be rather unfair.. By the way, I'm not sure where to post this request, so if I post it in the wrong area can someone point that out? thank you :) NO MORE INVISIBILITY BUG, THANK YOU DAYZ TEAM!!!!!!

First off what ticks me off is for the fact that everyone, yes literally everyone on the server talks about random shenanigans or most of the times DayZ related entities, but what's annoying in that? Well I'll tell you, its for the fact that everyone can talk to everyone without an item in their inventory. Yes I do know for a fact that the ArmA 2 chat is inevitable but to cope up with the post-apocalyptic feel we must remove the Side Channel, Global, Commander, (the yellow chat, whatever its called), and all other chats except for Direct Comms. That would bring us one step closer to the realism we wish for. And let's be honest.. what kind of radio can broadcast to everyone through out the country, hmm? Secondly we require different skins, I mean seriously if there would be a pandemic of zombies, do you think we would all grab a cap, a long sleeve shirt, jeans? I'm not whining its just that it's kind of unfitting when every survivor looks the same, it kinda messes with the realism.. UNLESS there was a story behind DayZ wherein we are all PMC units, which is rather unlikely. That is all for now folks! :D

I miss playing DayZ now, but I can't because this darn bug ruins the thrill of hunting players myself and linking up with clanmates

First, sorry if I posted it in the wrong section for I do not know where to request a reset.. since my character is invisible I would like a reset.. please help? And if my Player ID is required just let me know

Date/Time: 5/25/2012 11:00 AM Asia/Manila time What happened: When in 1st person, I can clearly and obviously see my body and my weapon on my hand, but I notice I am in a Force Recon Marine skin it kinda looks like a grenadier suggesting from the rolled sleeves and shoes, anyway when I go to 3rd person I see NO body weapon or anything at all, its not because its dark, I'm walking around invisible in broad daylight even my buddy can't see me.. and so do other players when I ask them.. Where you were: Spawned in the coast even though I disconnected near Bor, I'm now in North-West of Elektrosavodsk What you were doing: Just trying to link up with my friend and walking around, before I disconnected I hugged a bush to prevent getting spawn killed *Current installed version: v1.5.8.4 *Server(s) you were on: EU7 *Your system specs: AMD Athlon X4 640 3.0GHz 4096MB NVIDIA GeForce GT220 2258MB 1600x900 128bit *Timeline of events before/after error: Just exploring and raiding small villages and barns with my two friends

I tried all the suggestions in that thread.. no avail it still didnt work :(
