Yeah! and if the character gets shot in a toe? I may shoot my own toe :D, but how do I know if my character got shot there with no hud????
-
Specially in Day Z. Isn't supposed to feel real? well, how will they gonna make up for the lack of senses ingame if not with a HUD?
-
I always said and still say that HUD is a MUST. Mainly for making up for the lack of senses I have ingame. IRL I have 5 senses, ingame I have only 1 for hearing and half for view (or less). I need a permanent HUD on my screen (toggleable if so) to show me how "I feel". Those text messages are not helpful, cuz they're not permanent (and hope they never will cuz they are already quite annoying) and also are attention-depending. A simple icon like a HUD gives you all the information you need, exactly when you want to know it and only with a 0.1 second peeking. HUD is a MUST.

the hell is the aiming deadzone?

since when is the AS50 TWS in the game?

Im spanish, but I like the game in English. When everyone has the same language all the items are named the same. Everyone knows what a flare is thanks to this game, if it wasnt for it, for most of my friends it would be just "bengala" and communication with the other non-spanish players would be awful ("can you spare some..uhm..that red bright thing / do you have a .. loader.. for my gun?"). I myself learned a lot of new words thanks to this game. Is not that important since trading is not a key part of this game like it is in any MMORPG, but still, is easy to understand each other if items are named the same for everyone.

What stops people taking SA features over to the mod?
p4triot replied to scaramoosh's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Agree on the second part, I don't care if it takes 1 year or 5 years to create SA, but if it's gonna take that much, it should be done on A3 Engine. However, not agree on the first part of your post. CS 1.6 is 14 years older and the original game with the original maps still has thousands of active players, without mods involved. A game like Day Z is gonna last years, no mods needed. -
If you had the opportunity to add one pistol

It is not realistic, true, but it is also not realistic for the bloodbags to be conserved without refrigerators, isnt it? One thing for the other I must say...

Choppers autonomy isnt tell with distance but with time. That said, with 20L you may get 4 minutes of working engine, including takeoff and landing. So you will roughly have 1 minute or so in the air (unless you're a pro landing the heli).
-
What would you like to see instead of heli crash's in SA?
p4triot replied to MitchP's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Infected camps, cars/truck crashes, wrecked houses with the remains of a survivors group (I mean, the houses are always there, just pick any house of the game. But inside theres a chance some dead bodys in a really gore way will spawn with some loot that may indicate they were survivors. Some sort of an infected camp but inside houses not woods). -
Things that will Make or Break Standalone (Opinions)
p4triot replied to OfficerRaymond's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You mean the action bar like Minecraft? which Rocket said is taking a lot of inspiration from? Has nothing to do with WarZ. -
There's a lot of things to do until then, don't be so fretful -.- I don't care if the SA is released today or in 3 years. In fact, if it was in 3 years, it would probably be much more of an awesome game. I could happily wait if I had to.
-
what 5% movement increase? There's no such bonus, it's an urban legend.
-
In fact, I won't wait to be out of the town to shoot you. I will just shoot you in the leg just after pretend Im friendly and run away while zombies eat you. And after that, just come back to you crawling and pickup all your gear. However, in the hipothetical case the zombies we're impossible to beat alone, this game will turn impossible for the lone wolves, and they will end up quitting. There will only be left people like me who play with real friends and we're always a 4-5 guys team. But you're right, KoS will be reduced, because we would never find anyone alone, and if we do, we won't shoot until we know where his friends are (as for sure, he is part of another squad) and after shooting, thats not actually kosing, but more of a regular shootout between squads. P.D: just to note, I don't normally KoS, in fact, never do. But I also don't team up with randoms so if I see you, most probably I will just hide and watch until you're to far away to be a danger for me. You won't ever notice I saw you, and therebefore you won't know I could just have killed you if I wanted to. And now there's the question: how many real KoS is ingame? It could be possible than 4 out of 5 times you just went out alive because someone like me didn't shot, but as you dont know an then die from the 5th guy who did shot you (and the only one you know was there) you end up believing that "everyone KoS in this game"?

"Removed some non SD mags from SD weapons"
p4triot replied to Blippy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
9mm bullets go faster than sound, around 400 m/s and sound velocity is of 340 m/s .22 doesn't But above someone said the Makarov is a 9mm caliber gun, so I was wrong, and you can't use supersonic rounds on a silenced makarov. However... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9%C3%9718mm_Makarov "Velocity= 319 m/s" The 9x18mm makarov isn't the same as the 9x19 Parabellum of a G17 or M9, 9x18 is still subsonic, you should be able to use it with a MakarovSD "In weapons firing supersonic bullets, the supersonic bullet itself produces a loud and very sharp sound as it leaves the muzzle in excess of the speed of sound and gradually reducing speed as it travels downrange. This is a small sonic boom, and is referred to in the firearm field as "ballistic crack" or "sonic signature." Subsonic ammunition eliminates this sound, but at the cost of lower velocity, resulting in decreased range and lessening effectiveness on the target." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suppressor Are you basing your comment on hollywood movies ? -
"Removed some non SD mags from SD weapons"
p4triot replied to Blippy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Makarov is a .22 cal weapon. SD ammo is just subsonic ammo (cuz the silencer doesn't work properly if the bullet goes faster than the speed of sound) but as far as I know, .22 cal doesn't go faster than sound so there shouldn't be difference between regular makarov ammo and sd ammo, thats why you could still use it with a MakarovSD. Until now, seems. Correct me if Im wrong. -
Tried to jump back into DayZ...
p4triot replied to Target Practice (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Nothing, being killed after being robbed will be a common fact. But point is, if you don't surrender to the robbery they will kill you anyway, so you have nothing to lose risking being robbed, and they may kill you afterwards, but they also may not. However, if you have a wait out (IF), then run. There's more chances to survive. -
I just saw "the road", great movie, but I can't see your point. In the movie food is so scarce because the world is dying. Cold everywhere, no animals, no crops, all nature is dissapearing... What has this to do with Day Z? Nature isn't dying in Day Z, whatever you could do before the Zombie outbreak can still be done, only being carefull of not being eaten by a zombie or hunted down by a bandit is what actually changes. I can't see why all the food in the world should be gone.

How the hell do you suppose to know where you are?
p4triot replied to SeaNanners (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If it was for me game wouldn't even tell you where you are when login in. I find much funnier having to find a road, and then follow it until you find a sign. -
Probably Done playing DayZ Forever Until This awful bug is fixed....
p4triot replied to leviski's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The bug has something to do with extreme low fps I think, its like my computer CPU can't manage whats happening around and they affect you really late. And Im saying that because I play on low fps (8-12, even 5 if the server has been online for more than 3 hours) and I am usually the one with god mode xD -
Day Z isn't based on Robinson Crusoe's book, ya' know? I think it's more like a ZOMBIE survival. We're not trapped in a desert island surrounded only by sea and having to drink our own urine because sea water would dehydrate us even more, ya' know? I mean, maybe it was some hallucination, but I seemed to notice a few towns all around chernarus, with, ya' know, houses and sh1t, where there's usually a kitchen, a refrigerator, a pantry. I even noticed some supermarkets, with some stuff left behind. Even saw a few civilization technology like fountains, farms, roads, ya' know? I mean, maybe it is only me, but I have this crazy idea that in a zombie apocalypse, I wouldn't need to make my own wooden house on a tree with bamboos and monkey shit and reinvent the wheel and sh1t like that, ya' know?

Opinions on releasing DayZ on console?
p4triot replied to Statik (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Not all Xbox players are like that you know many of have been waiting for a game like this to be released for a long time.And any way why do you care is they come to the forums just ignor them simple.You are bitching about nothing Those who are not like that rapidly quit the consoles platform and traspas to pc as soon as they acknowledge is faaar better than his shitty big sized paperweight. Who the hell with a minimum of sense would play on a console? the economic excuse is no longer applicable since way long ago. And the PC has always beaten consoles on everything else... I have 2 friends that used to play on xbox 360, CoD players actually, and they tried the computer for the first time to play Day Z, as it seemed really interesting for them and couldn't found anything similar for the xbox (as you stated, many xbox players want something like Day Z). Well, one thing lead to another, they also tried BF3 on computer to play with me (no way im playing on a console) and you know what? after buying it and paying full price for it on his xbox, they purchased it again for pc as, using they're own words "it's another game, really. Has nothing to do with the console version!". That was a few months ago, now, they both play ONLY on pc, and have stated that in no case they're going to buy the new generation consoles. That's what happens to the console gamers that are real gamers and just went mislead to the console platforms. The rest, those who will stick on a console even after trying the unquestionable superiority of the computer, are exactly as stated in the post you're quoting. -
Nothing wrong with that. Problem is when different characters from the same account share also the same server.
