There are some really good ideas here. Weapons should definitely be more rare. Especially firearms. Let people have melee weapons to defend themselves against zombies or else, looting will be too fucking hard. Having to respawn constantly and to start over again and again kills all the fun in this game. I don't mind dying, but if 90% of the game will be starting over, then there's really no point in playing this game anymore. So let us have axes, crowbars, sticks and a machete :D But not being able to pick up firearms everywhere you go, would force players to work together. You'd have to find a group of survivors and ask them if you can tag along. Someone might have matches, or a pistol. Or some bandages. This would drastically decrease banditry, because shooting on sight would just put you in a position where you'd be helpless in no time. Without explicitly punishing banditry. There'd also be some nice tension within the group. The guy with the pistol would have to constantly watch his back. This would also incentivize "class" play. If you want your group not to abandon you, you'd have to be of some value. Maybe you're the only one being able to hunt animals, because you have a hunting knive. (can't gut animals with a crowbar). Since items would be much more rare, you'd actively have to loot cities and wander around the map, increasing the chance of meeting other groups of survivors. Just thinking about this, excites me :D One could argue about the rareness of items. I don't want to see a constant battle over ressources. If you're in a group, I wouldn't want there to be a constant tension. You should be able to survive in a group and not have to kill your friends, because there is not enough food. But it shouldn't be too easy either. Finding the right balance could be the hardest part in this. Also, I'm not so fond of all the high grade military gear. Pistols are weak and innacurate, but that's what would make firefights so much more fun. Right now, you're dead before you even realize it, most of the time, because of the sniper rifles, that one-shot over half a kilometer. Do we really need all these weapons? I'd rather see a fight (if there really has to be) between two groups, where only a few of the people actually have weapons, and the weapons being makarovs and winchesters ^^ THAT would be fun.

Plus the fact, that rocket has been gone for a while. Everyone, calm the fuck down. It's patch day, and you never play on patch day. It's the same with other games you actually paid money for. So why does it bother you that much with DayZ? e. Gnarhg, someone posted inbetween :/

Just play with the male skin for now. Because you are right, the female skin does give you a disadvantage.

Horrible idea. The animation looks like shit. Seriously, who jumps over fences like that? For me, jumping over fences like some olympic runner would break the immersion immensly. And it's just not needed, in my opinion.

Haha, this is the biggest fail in logic I've witnessed in a long time :D Flabbergasting, really.

ONE place to refill jerry cans? Are you fucking shitting me? That would be the one most camped place on the whole map. People are already complaining about not having enough access to vehicles. Imagine what would happen if you couldn't get your hands on fuel anymore, because there would be more bandits waiting than on the NW airfield. You don't like running, but the only means of faster travel would become utterly useless if there was only one spot to refuel. There's room for improvement, map-wise, but I don't think, adding more pvp zones will help getting rid of pvp... Looking for a place to set up a fortified area? Try green mountain. It has only two entrances. A blue gate and a little hole in the wall. Easily defendable and you got a nice view from top of the tower. Y'all must be doing something wrong. I have never been shot at the coast after spawning. Even Elektro isn't all that dangerous. You spawn with nothing, so you got nothing to lose. Run into a town, find a building with two entrances, run through it, and the zombie train you've pulled will stop right there. It's so easy. It takes about half an hour to get your basic gear together. Broken bones are so much more dangerous than other players during the first hour of playing. I just don't get why everyone seems to have such troubles surviving.

+1 I'm sure, more skins will come, but really, this is not a top priority. Let rocket fix bugs and try new features before expanding on the existing ones. Remember this idea for the beta stage ;)

This idea is being put forward constantly... I don't get it. This idea sucks and rocket already said, he's not going in that direction. I could explain why, but I already did in some other thread. I just don't feel like repeating myself over and over again. I just want to share my disapproval of this idea, so it doesn't look like everyone is for it. -1

Or you might just try to double-click left shift.

Alright, thanks.

I would wait until there is some information on the BIS forums and BE validation confirmed. I can't find anything about this topic in the BIS forum. And Battleeye doesn't seem to even have a forum. Mind pointing me in the right direction? I tried google :rolleyes: No. Stuck at loading indefinitly on many different servers. rolling back to earlier beta patch. Can you just roll back the beta patch? I thought, it explicitly says that you can't do that.

Can you guys play with the newest beta patch? (94444) I'm constantly stuck at loading.

The link to rocket's twitter feed links to Vipeax' thread.

To everyone demanding faster and better communication from the devs: Give them some space. They are not obliged to answer all your question immediately (or at all) And please, compare the communication of the devs in this game with any other game. I just don't get, how people can actually be so demanding of a game, that is free, developed by a single person, maintained by a few and in alpha stage. Seriously guys... get a grip on reality. Noone ows you anything. Especially not, when the communication actually is really good, even though it is not instant. Again, compare with other games you actually paid for. To everyone involved in the development of this game: Please please don't listen to these fools. Just ignore them. People like that are found with any game out there. But they are not the majority of people nor the ones you should listen to.

Those "low industrial" shacks all have the ~4% chance of spawning military loot, don't they?

Are you sure, mousesmoothing=1 is better than mousesmoothing=0? Usually it's better to disable mousesmoothing. Is it the other way around for Arma? Anyone care to elaborate? :D

So, where is it?

Can't connect on any server, right now. Sucks, because I had to log out in a somewhat populated area :/ Actually, I don't know, where I have been logged out, because I had the yellow chain of death for 10 minutes. I could spawn anywhere :/

I'm all for armor loot. But there should be some disadvantage, like slower running speed.

I saw camo clothing floating in the air, but couldn't pick it up :/

All for this one. Easy to implement, as backpacks already have this feature. It is needed.

Quit putting your nickname in the thread title. Useless attention whoring this is... One can already see, who started the thread :rolleyes:
