Am I the only one who had a saline treatment that was temporary? I got a saline IV from a friendly stranger yesterday, instant good vision. I logged in today to find my vision is blurry again. Not as white and bright but definitely blurry. Random bug/oddity or is the saline actually temporary??

Is there still no experimental servers online?

I've lost 2 characters now from server hopping! Let this be a lesson to all would be server hoppers. Like was said, it's bad mmmkay? If you server hop a lot....You're gonna have a bad time.

I think this is one of the reasons why KoS is slightly down in the SA right now. The loneliness, people get bored and dont want to kill the next person they see they want to talk about the game and shit.

Braids for woman, I like this idea but only if you have the option to shave it.

Unbelievable this dude gets 3 pages worth of discussion and people telling him its an Alpha and not to be a baby and real threads discussing ideas for mechanics and such are lost 5 pages in the thread listing because these stay on top. The problem with this community is you all spend too much time feeding the trolls.

No

Bohemia does not have shareholders. They are a private company.

LMAO that is cleverest thing I have seen on this site, R-Amen, get it? AHAAAA

Yah it looks pretty good so far. Better then ARMA III rain too which is surprising to me.

Any news on this?

A longest time lived stat....pleeeeeease!

You guys should have been covering each other while handcuffing not handcuffing at the same time or one handcuff and go clear the building. But I guess that's the military police in me.

Well in all seriousness with 5 different skin types and 5 diff starting close, we are all already clones. lol Id LOOVE to see a bigger variety of skins for players.

Wow dude, calm down. They are going to implement it soon. You know its alpha as you just said and yet you are all in a tiff.

Im all for it if it can be done.

It all comes down to realistic character building. Like others have suggested, reading books to further medical expertise, survival books, doing things. That is all 100% realistic. No one is "born" knowing how to effectively stop arterial bleeding! Trust me. I didn't know squat about Combat Application Tourniquets or pressure points before joining the military. Classes and such are way OUT. That is NOT Dayz and is overly gamey. There is no magic limiter on the knoledge I can posess and the only things limiting my physical skills are genetics and such but that can be overcome to a degree.

I'd like to see this implemented as well. Along with leaderboards and a place that your stats are stored, not just after death.

Some people.... There I am sitting (litterally in the sitting animation) at the cabin by the swamp in one of the US West servers enjoying the beach and drinking a beer waiting for some new spawns to roll up so I could hook them up with bandages. (In my opinion the most nessecary items for survival) I hear somebody to my right and coming up the creaky dock is a standard new spawn with a helmet on. I get up and announce im friendly. Now, I have an M4 with shit ton of ammo, Axe, vest, beanie, camo pants, the works. You'd think when I say "Friendly here, whatsup man?" a dude with nothing but his bare fist would stop. But nooooooo dude wants some! Serious KoSer bandit I assume who just got it handed to him and is a new spawn. He pulls out a WRENCH! LMAO Yes, A wrench and comes at me like a banshee! I still dont want to shoot him and try to manuever but end up dropping off the dock and getting stuck between the cabin and dock. I couldent believe I was going to get pummeled to death by a wrench. He tries to take advantage of my situation and comes at me. At this point I have no choice but to shoot. All my rounds hit the dock in front of me but at this point he knew I meant buisness. He runs off around the cabin. I finnaly end up going prone and under the dock and go around the corner to find him cowering in the reeds. Right before I pump 10 rounds into his chest, I say "Really dude? Really? Piece of shit! I was trying to be friendly!" Hopefully it taught him a lesson. On the other hand, most likely not. Just let this be a warning to assholes and wrench rushers, justice will be served. If this was you. Chime in. Id love to hear your side of this encounter. No matter how dick it was.

Love it, it has been a long talked about feature. It would help to create "end games" so to speak. Objecitves that arent story driven but give people advantages and help set up civilization again.

Wow, I like that. Its preatty heavy, but deffinately would work. It would fix KoS too for sure. People wouldent want to risk it. But good luck selling that to the devs. I personally like the idea.

We desperatly need a STAT system though. It will add major replay value to beat your best time survived.

One word.......STATS! Longest time survived VS Time survived with this character. Introduce leaderboards. It only registers TIME IN GAME! Not time youve had the character. People love leaderboards and being on top. I know some people think its gamey but I would think twice about KoS and possibly dieing if I might lose my beard and my best surival time. KoS will never go away but its the things that make people think twice that will help simulate real world empathy. People wouldent kill like this is real life. It is because it is a game and consequences are not like in real life that people kill like they do. No justice, no fear of prison or real death. So we have to simulate it some how. This is where I am ok with the game getting "gamey".

Not really, if there had been a combat logging timeout he would have sat there while you chopped him to bits and the next time he logged in he would be on the coast with a new spawn. I have faith in this game.....I have hope that the community and culture will change when certain mechanics are introduced. This game is ever molding, ever changing, and so the culture and community will change with it.

Welcome to the Real Virtuality Engine boys. It fucking BLOWS Major in 2 areas. Sound and Animation. I hate it. I cant wait till BIS uses that 15 mil to create a new engine from scratch. This thing is like 15 years old
