Losing side chat was one of the best things to happen to this mod. Hell. No. If you must, increase direct to 100M or add a channel for yelling with double the range of direct. Otherwise, live with it.

You've got better drugs than me.

Yeah...I also hate that every time I log on I have to worry about getting killed by a zombie or another player. How am I supposed to play the game if I could get killed at any moment??? Please fix - it's inhibiting me from playin

It's for added immersion. Now when you see a crawler, there is a good chance that it's actually a player! SCAAARY

Yes, but you have to find the sweet spot on them, like saving a vehicle, etc. I think it's on one of the center poles. Then you get the option (if you have a Toolbox)

While walking, the crosshair deviates within about 2-3 inch square region on a 24 inch monitor. So, for it to move all over the screen would require about 10 times the deviation. Not even comparable to normal movement. It wouldn't have to be made that difficult, but anything easier would feel very video gamey and action-movie-ey but not very real.

Interesting from a game standpoint. But from a realism standpoint, your crosshair would have to be randomly moving over the entire screen to even remotely simulate how hard that shot would be.

I think that morphine should be remodeled as a splint. Same spawn rate, etc. It just makes a little more sense for fixing broken bones. Also and more importantly, we need a self-interaction way to set our own bones even WITHOUT morphine because of all the game bugs that cause broken bones. So, as an alternative to using morphine/splint, if you don't have them, you can set your own broken bone but it takes a minute to do and your character screams the whole time, making it dangerous to do in a gunfight, or an infested area. Also, maybe you need painkillers after. Just a thought.

The main point of this thread is the need for a means of mending broken bones even if you have NO gear. Either that OR fixing the game engine so that stepping into a tree or another survivor can't shatter your legs. The functionality of the morphine/splint is secondary in my opinion. My bad, I addressed them in reverse order in OP.

This is already being discussed 4 threads down. Why do we need a new thread? http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=18509 Also, not a bad suggestion for a DayZ standalone. But I agree that it could be buggy with Arma2.

You can't auto-kill anyone who disconnects while engaged in an online game. That is ridiculous. The only solution is to increase the timer. Also, add messages when a player starts the disconnect timer, and also a message when/if the player cancels disconnect (maybe only 1 cancel allowed per hour to prevent abuse). That would give the other person in the firefight a clue that they may want to risk rushing their opponent. It would also solve people spamming respawn til they get somewhere they want. I hate adding to server spam and wish there was a way to change the size of chat, but games like this need to relay information sometimes. No game can be all immersion and no functionality.

30 second timer with server message that "PlayerX has begun disconnecting". You can interrupt the disconnect during that 30 seconds if you want/need to but only 1 interrupt allowed per hour or something.

We need a self-interaction way to set our own bones even WITHOUT morphine or wood because of all the game bugs that cause broken bones. So, as an alternative to using morphine/splint, if you don't have them, you can set your own broken bone but it takes a minute to do and your character screams the whole time, making it dangerous to do in a gunfight, or an infested area. Also, maybe you need painkillers after. Just a thought.

I'm pretty sure this has been said dozens of times before, but shacktac hud.

I hope you are trolling Riis. Otherwise you must be another Arma2 noob. Welcome to the game. Broken bones have always been buggy in Arma2. Also, Arma2 is NOT an alpha.

Yes please

Zombo aggro seems okay to me but PLEASE do something about the broken bones! They are too common with bugs in ARMA2 and it seems like getting hit by zombies causes them too often as well. Either make people spawn with morphine again or give an option to set your own broken bones without any special item. Make it take a minute and be really loud (screaming) or something so that it is dangerous to do and you need to find a safe spot first.
