Id agree with something like this like that "Metallic something" Could be a Stationary Fuel tank you can fill up inside your base and it could remain post Restarts if not used it despawns like a vehicle

For the problems with loot spawns you'll hate SA then after a restart ALL the loot is spawned for that part of the game meaning the Rifles will quite quickly get picked clean from their spawn locations and Higher powered rifles will actually be a Commodity because they'll be harder to find (Only on Crash sites that happen DURING the time between the restart)

They would be good hell they'd be more than good Depth Perception that really works hell it'd be cool to be running around looking around away from my weapons at times just to see some bandit trying to get me and with things like Scopes you could actually have the feel of Scope Tunnel vision

Yeah Jeff the red one that Paycer spends hours in trolling everyone with Soundboards and his own voice and it takes people forever to think to check it...

Hey that looks like the PDW only with a stock and actually larger than pistol I think it IS the PDW in fact thats where the Uzi comes in

Its not a bad idea but all survivors are immune to this unnamed virus (But of course if they were bitten by the original Zed *cough*Patient Zero*cough* they might get a mutated version that they arent immune to and could succumb to the point of eating Human flesh to remain "Human") so its not possible of course the are many loopholes such as Mutations but we havent spent more than maybe a week since the start (This was one quick to infect virus)

In fairness what no-one realises is say a 5.56 headshot It should leave you on low blood (Like so low you cant wake yourself up and you need a blood bag and a bandage within 2 minutes otherwise you die (No bandage) or cant wake up (Blood bag) and for a while you should randomly collapse and suffer terrible aim (It'd fix with time to balance and you could work on doing stuff Like capturing zombies to create an item that cures it completely but gives them an infection)

So I'll get to live out my fantasy being Adam Jensen in a Zombie apocalypse proceeding to roll around stealthily taking out anything that moves and crawling through vents to sneak up behind people? Hurray! (On a Serious note) It'd get annoying fast some guy sits in a vent and just waits for guys to come around then massacres them or you hear a chopper and see a bunch of people die only for some guy who HALO jumped in to massacre your heavily defended building this isnt some 1990's spy film like mission impossible in reality an air vent has barely enough space for your average three year old at largest and even then they are crawling "Commando" Style I think making them a viable Hiding spot sure but anything else would be pointless (dead drops and stuff would be their only use) and if we use them for hiding stuff why not hollowed out logs? Random Dead Drops of guns and ammo incase your in a pinch scattered around the world

Guys while they arent in the armed forces the people in DayZ have been surviving long enough to have the same level of experience as your every day Front line soldier loading quickly wouldnt be a problem but dropping the mag would REALLY increase the speed of the reload still

Its an admin that isnt happy with you lad you probably found a heli they spawned in and were going to "Find" and repaired it they saw this and decided "Lets ban him so he cant steal our precious Heli that we could probably get more of" nothing you can do unless it was a public hive if you were running a Suspicous script Battleye would have busted you the odds of them actually catching a hacker who avoided Battleye are Astronomical at best its just an unhappy admin

In a Cove or on an Island or something If its turned on its side even better it shouldnt be near a spawn and should be Like NWAF Only its harder to lockdown to the fact you have a massive Cliff face or a full set of dunes covering the area

It would be cool but it should be one of those places you can go to and upon doing certain things it will classify it as a Non-Zombie spawn but you get random Zed Assualts where people have to defend it or the place goes back to Super Zed land (Electric Fences and stuff people?

I have that power I find it hilarious that I have the ability to traverse NWAF panicking about Aggro only to realise any Zombies I aggro cant locate me anyway due to my Positioning not being there to them

If you launch OA it runs as CO and starts the normal Arma 2 files up aswell

Say Im going to nip this quickly but Bullpups Might be slightly more accurate when it comes to full auto fire and smaller (The barrel starts before the trigger so you need a smaller external) but most bullpups are American or British the L85 for example is in use by British Cadet Organisations and the amount of work to get it to work are ridiculous its also alot easier to break and did I mention that it's not a gun that likes being dealt with quickly also Just because they are sexy doesnt mean they need to be added you dont see me Demanding animations for bolt action weapons so they look cool or demanding an RPG because my rifle cant take out the engine on the vehicle I want to randomly attack. Also in my opinion we need the AS50 removing and more Civilian grade weapons with Military "Full Auto" Ak's for example being really rare outside of the Camped Army bases and so people get more Semi-Auto Variations or Bolt action/Pump Action weapons around

Just a note DayZ renders the map based on what it can SEE and if a shot message is bounced to it from the server then maybe an extra metre from you

So what about Chickenpox in theory your immune to that after one bout yet it comes back for more

Survivors are Immune but whats to say the isnt another Virus like Rabies that causes most of these effects or the are Mutated Virus Zombies that can both infect AND Cure you with a Virus that slowly transforms you but instead of suffering Major effects you might groan every now and again or your character might at random intervals if the isnt a player in view or directly near them "Shit shit shit! Im completely Fucked" As if panicking about the bite Anti-biotics would also Cure it and be available at Hospitals but have a chance to fail or lower the disease type by a small amount and it only takes you back a stage if it succeeds until you reach stage one at which curey time.Only problem is people might infect themselves just to bite the squad they are in but when you die from infection the corpse has all its stuff checked then automatically hides the body and puts the stuff on that body on the zombie who cant equip any of it and slowly drops stuff starting with the Primary until you find that zombie with a sidearm a Huge backpack and no stuff in either aside from that guys last bullet he didnt use on himself

The should be the ability to use CCTV and Trail Cameras but you have to Power a generator Using fuel and to store you'd need CD's or VCR Video Tapes that have to be continually Replaced but having a Few Hubs that would be good bases and being able to make your own Camera or Alarm system would be good fun and worth the effort when some guy steals your shit and the camera tells you all of what he had in the open when he did it

If they had this and a bow and arrow Implementation then made THESE weapons Common Id use them so much Id never go hunting down that One Assualt Rifle I desperatly need or that Backpack I want because Id be a Wild Hunter with only a CZ550 and a Revolver for guns (Crossbow could start with Iron sights and be able to use any Scope/Sight that fits on a Standard Rail and also have its own Specialized scopes that improve its accuracy also it could have Better and worse parts -a High power Firing system thats really long lasting could have detrimental weight issues (Not much but still enough to effect aiming) where as a Lightweight long laster could also fire pretty damn far but lacks immediate Power the other one has at close range) For the Bow suggestion why not have different types Such as Homemade(Doesnt last long but is fairly easy to get parts together for) Compound, Composite, long, Short, Medium, High Draw Weight and Low Draw weight all that customizable goodness people would realise the way forwards also in a Zombie Apocalypse Crossbows and Bow's would be the most common as even after the fall of the military you are gonna run out of Ammo Guns and the materials to make the Ammo for the guns. Id trust a bow over a Gun any day (And Im not any good with a bow)

This is why Im going to love DayZ Stand alone Most stuff will be on the newly Optimized Server side of the New edited Engine meaning no more uber cluster fucks of Hacker teleports or spawning ins more the occasional Derpy zombie running away from said hacker

Like a Crysis Nanosuit?The should be this and stuff like climbing which is easier without a weapon (You could press Vault and lift yourself over cover if your about to clip with it or begin really slowly climbing a wall with very little grip and alot of pain so the Broken leg sound effect could play and you could risk falling to your death (higher with a Pistol until so fucking high you are a 1% success chance with the AS50/M107)) It kinda makes sense if your chasing some poor Little Newspawn for him to scramble over a K barrier and sprint down the street jumping as fast as his little legs will carry him over low down stuff (Vaultable and Not that hard to climb cover only if it requires effort you climb). It could also mean (and dont take offense in movie terms its this) "The Black guy" with the Makarov could not only out run the Bandits chasing him but be able to climb behind them and *Bang*

I disagree the should be a Ability to place waypoints and remove them but only with a pencil you should also require the map out to get the *Here and here* Markers and GPS would be the same yet not need the pencil give your position and it gives you either Audio or Visual Instructions on which roads to go on to get somewhere the fastest (The rest of the world is fine Satellites havent decayed YET)

A Competition to create the best "Short film" or Short story in DayZ about DayZ with a Subject of someone's choosing it could be done for a potential Origin story for players to decide which one they follow or a Tale of how Bambi Mcderpson survived his first bandit raid and how he lost his Best friend Sgt. Major Tim Cuddles (His beloved Teddy bear meant to mean a tragedy story for those without a Bambi locked up somewhere in their mind)

Things such as Fires Leaving smoke plumes are already in but the should be a wind mechanic at the very least for Fires so the's actually a chance of you not alerting that Bandit in Cherno but instead alerting that Entire squad of men just outside of regular Smoke Distance near Balota or quite possibly that town on the edge of the map
