Axon0p62

It is quiet a DM rigth now, would love to see it more as it meant to be, a zombie apocalypse where players should be interacting with each other to overcome the real threat the Zombies. Hell they destroyed the entire zivilisation in the story, no problem when you can outran them, but you should get tired, while they dont. I think the zombieengien itself is quiet amaing, if you get unlucky a single Z can cost your life. Wait for them to spwan everywhere, not only in citys and champing snipers on mountainhills are history. Dont get me wrong, i really like the idea of roaming Bandits, cause they are one of the things that are making that game so tense. Look what stands on the Mainpage: Step one: gear up, step two: kill Zombies and Bandits, Step three: survive. So final goal for the game is not killing but survival, what means that players must be entertaint otherwise and make beliefe that meating up with other will help him further than only killing them on sigth. An old saying speeks: Share when you have and you will get when you need. (Teile in der Zeit dann hast du in der Not.) I think there was the suggestion that there is an other mod, that is more based on killing each other and less on surviving. Or got to WarZ with there DM friedly engine. I dont care how hard DayZ will going to be at the end, what really matters is the authencity, makes you slide further and further into the Horror of the Zombie Apocalypse. Cant agree with you cause your argumentation points into the direction, more DM less survival, i love the fact that you got to eat, you wont die that fast but when it would not be that way that it is, banditsnipers could stay forever on there post and it would degenerate more and more to an new Arma with better Healthsystem. DayZ carrys the hope within it to get the game for player who whant to generate more than flat funbased gameeperience. But thanks for keeping the topic alive. :) P.S.: I love steam. Lost a lot of games while my harddrive was killed. Just downloaded steam, and was ready to download all games agian, eaven those where the CD/DvD are long time dead.

"No Words"

Thanks for your POV, but i did not agree with you. Blood is not a healthbar? Then tell me please what it is? As far as i know represents the Bloodicon your general constitution, cause it would not be realistic to nearly bleed out, and still keep on running. When the bloodicon really displays Blood, than only like 2 to 3 liters in the 7 to 9 entire liters. Second thing on that point is that when your nurishment run out you loose blood to, so i hold on to that cause i felt like it would only take gamemechanics that are allready implanted. I dont agree with your opinion about skills, sure there are some things you can learn by loot and trial but curing a shoot, or getting an engine to running needs knowlege you cant learn on the field. Imagine you are in the apocalypse going to someone and telling him. "Hey buddy, what to be my medical subject? But be aware i never did something with medicin bevor!" I think not! Lets think your opinion trougth, what would that mean ingame? People who wanna be doctors running around in citys, letting them hit from zombies to get better in bandaging. One thing more i bet i can give the audience a bloodbag, and about 95% will not be able to help someone with that, imagine onlone pining the needle into the rigth vein the rigth point. have a nice day.

Congratz. great job! One question: Do you have a camp and an homeserver or did you serverjump? I allways try to setup a camp what i think would be the frist thing to do, when you have fullfilled all your other needs. My camps are uasually huge and therefor got to be on the wide side of the mapeges. like far west or far north. Do you work the same way?

One time i glitched out of the firestationtower, landing on the rooftop unconscious with broken legs and bleeding. Was near to death when i managed to to bandage myself. Died while crawling on the ground eaten by a zombie, who aggroed while i was passed out an on the way to the hospital. Geen Mountain, opend the maingate(the rigth one wen you look from outside), got slamed into the fence, broke my legs and leves me unconscious with Zombies eating me to death. Wanted to throw a Flare from a building, NEVER try to throw one while moving! ran off the roof throwing the flare while in the air and died instanly cause of the higth. Where two people, with really good gear, whanted to get some med supplies from cherno hospital (that one next to the 4 red houses on the north) finding an guy there. After he conformed that hes is friendly and me, giving him a bloodbag, my friend moved in from his position to get me fixed. The bastard shoot us both while my friend gave me a bloodtransfusion. Still shocks me how easy people are lying you in the face(like moral dont counts for some people in the faceless web), take your help and than try to kill you for no reason. Was finished looting in elektro runnig towards the hills one zombie behind me. As i stepped over a small fence, the Z hitting me and i passed out, thougth "ok you are on full blood you will survive this". Wrong, passed outquiet long, as i gain Consciousness again my leg where boke and i was about to bleeding out. Got nothing left to do than kill this zombie and all that migth follow. But only get after that one, two more befor dying, rushed by a horde of 7 or so.

Nice idea! Mine is following: You should have a stamminabar that only regenerates when you are sitting, Stamina regenaration should be filled up again in 2 to 4 minutes of resting. Stamina should run out after 2000 to 3000 meters, so that you have to plan your trails, where you got to go, where to take a break(Slow upright walking should not use any stamina at all). You should be able to keep on running eaven when you had run out of stamina for the cost of blood, means you can kill yourself by keeping running. P.S.: Combine this with a klass/skillsystem (something like the one I mentions earlyer in the Thread) an more vehicles in big citys(just a few lowtier vehicles so that you can get around the map without taking 20 breaks on the way to the northern Airfield.).

I would love to see some skillpoints implanted, but not like in any other MMO where you got to train them. It should be like when you spawn a new char you choose some specific skills, like medicin(you can take and give medical supplies), weapon maintance(gives you the ability to clean weapons and keep them working, while others weapons will break after some time and they dont have the skill to fix it again), mechanics(you can repair vehicles) everybody should be able to play there style so all klasses can use all things that are out there, but you need specific roles to finish spezific goals, like fixing weapons, vehicles or injuries. That is just little what should be possible and would make the gameplay more teambased. So lonewolfs are able to survive alone but if someone got a specific need that he does not have the skill for he needs to get social, what should be much much harder when you are in a banditskin. WTF, Dude!?!

Aws also thermalview got to big influence on gameplay. I dont got to adapt my playstyle that much to any other weapon out there, not eaven the AS50 got that much of an impact on how to play this game. I dont like the gun, its absolut useless except for the Aws(maby useful with an other sigth). Thx for asking team rocket :D, anyhow i will stick to the game and rockets decision. He proofed that he knows what he does. P.S. Would not be suprised if some kind of thermal will be in the SA.

Axon0p62= Axon, 0, p, 62 Was sitting in front of my PC after some hours of onslugthing or deathmatching, thinking about a name i will keep for a long periode of time, planed for Scifi-shooter in the first place. But have used it since then for allmost every game with MP feature. I was use to play the Charakter Axon in UT2004, 0 comes from my old name, that was Warrior0, p stands for Patrick my RL name, 62=26.2 the birthday of my wife. got this name now about 8 or 9 jears or so. I got some personal problems with the Name rigth now, cause its holding the phrase OP in it, but i thing thats what names are about, somethimes they annoy you. This name is now a longtime companion and i thing i will stick to it.

Wuhu Hats!!! Thanks for the great Mod, looking forwards to the standalone. Does that mean that there will be something like a Jump featured? Thx for your great work
