Not sure, got it from Google. I'd have to agree about the pilot, what is that? 100 feet? And his chute isn't even fully deployed yet alone open.

Snares/traps have been suggested, while I haven't seen EVERY suggestion I don't think I've seen one talking about water catchment. I don't think the amount of soda is too high (considering it's a mass produced/consumed product) and I thought that non well water sources had to be purified already (with tablets). Water purification will be a thing that's needed in the future so I don't think it's 'knit picky'.

There are no vehicles so no.

If I remember right if you hit something going at speed you would take a small amount of damage, but usually you would hit something you think you'd just drive over, glitch on it, wonder why you're not moving anymore then-HOLY SHIT WHY DID I BLOW UP!

If you mean 'undead' or 'headshot only' I'd say no, because even in the video they die from body shots. If you mean numerous and swarming, we just need to give the devs time to improve the engine and improve performance so that Servers/your own computer don't catch on fire or melt when you're in Cherno, fire off a diner bell, and have more than 50 zombies on screen with only 1-2 FPS.

I think it's been said in the 'lore' that the virus has progressed so far that only 1% of the population remains uninfected/immune. Other than that it's your own story.

There's no such thing as a friendly server. There are only public servers right now and they cannot make rules about PVP. That aside I don't know what to tell you, you could have died from any number of reasons, including bugs or hacks. If you actually heard the shots then I'd be a bit suspicious.

EJECT EJECT! Since you're new here, Frankie is not 'well respected' around here but rather flame bait, some people just simply hate him, others belive he's a hacker and should not be as famous as he is, so on so fourth, and others WILL come to his defense and...yeah I'm just gonna 23 skeedo here.

No, there is no date. 4-6 months is the current estimate. We probably won't have a fixed date either just a *WARNING NOT AN ACTUAL DATE!!!* 'Vehicles will be in next week's experimental build.' *WARNING: NOT AN ACTUAL DATE!!!* And we'll move on. The Lazies will cream themselves, then promptly come to forums and bitch about not finding a spark plug or some such no mater how much they server hop.

Did anyone else's inner voice read the OP in Early Cuyler's voice? Move off the coast and you'll find plenty of loot to survive (By the way you don't NEED a gun to survive).

It is not your game either, so don't act high and mighty. Most of us actually listen/read what the Devs do post. Rocket wants there to be risk, if you make 'bandits' clearly visible as well as your friends easily distinguished from everyone else there's almost no risk, shoot anyone who's not green or on your friend's list soon as their health bar shows up. Confusion and friendly fire happens in Real Life. If I can't hit the side of a barn with a shotgun a pair of gloves isn't going to automatically help, hell a pair of mittens will make it HARDER to use the gun. There won't be stats on items, there will be attributes, shoes/boots will protect your feet from injury (when it's implemented) not give +5 Speed, raincoats will keep off the rain (for the most part) not give +5 Water Resistance, gloves will protect your hands, not automatically give +5 accuracy just because you're wearing them. Most Kevlar vests are compromised after the first bullet, helmets don't magically block 5 shots (again, lucky if you can stop one)

No. It would allow people with too much money and time to gear up on their private 'public' server, jump onto a normal public server destroy everything they see.

Normally I would say 'because tits'. However that's not really the case in DayZ where we don't have C cup or greater High Elves with dental floss 'plate' armor. There's many reasons, I'd say the top one is they don't know how to change their character (why am I playing as a black girl?) or some other such 'glitch'. The next one Id say is they THINK being a girl will give them a slight advantage where for some reason they won't get shot on sight, or to lure people into traps (Honey Pot). I'd say probably the last reason on the list is that they're underage and just that immature/desperate for 'pornographic' material.

Well, you CAN lock them now, but it's against the rules and you'll more than likely lose your server without a refund. I would imagine when they add in private hives you'll be able to lock a private hive server.

They probably won't have a 'black press vest' (kinda like the UN helmet can't be green or black but it's still the same model) but there will probably be 'police' vests or some such coming.

I don't like the idea of instakill backstabs or even some RPG 2x damage mechanic for 'sneaking'. There should be a difference between a stab and a slash with melee weapons. IE if you stab someone in the front you have a good chance of killing them (maybe not instantly unless you get them in the brain or heart) as opposed to slashing them from behind. BF/COD style 'press R3 to win' knifeplay, or throat slashing from behind or whatever...no thank you.

You'd likely find hives in hollow trunks of trees or in fallen logs, and you would get stung in the process (depending on the breed of bee) even with smoke and a suit. As for zombie animals...not quite sure, I've still not gotten my hands on the paper Rocket's brother did on the zombies/infected, but the virus might not be transmitted to other species, or it may. There are going to be food borne illnesses and such, so I don't see why you wouldn't occasionally get some meat that's infected or diseased, though cooking things thoroughly should kill most of them.

Yes, like 28 days later. Also players are the only ones immune to the virus, so there won't be any player zombies or NPCs.

The mosin uses 7.62 x 54r (I believe it's 51 in game for some reason) right now there's 7.62x51 and 7.62x39 which is what the AKM/47 and SKS uses.

Another one of these...*sigh* Zombies are not undead, they are rabid living humans. That means that a shot to the heart, or even bloodloss would result in death. Zombies are being redone to make them a bit more of a threat, but Humans (players) will always be the greater threat.

There's different teams working on different things. There's a bug team and a features team. The Feature's team only job is to add features, and the Bug Team's job is to fix bugs. Features are easier to add in than it is to find bugs and squash them. Honestly they could spend a month just trying to fix one bug, add in a feature then have that bug come back along with a whole host of new bugs. Hell they can fix a bug and have 20 new bugs pop up in it's place. I'm sure others have and will say it, It's Alpher, this is going to be the game at it's glitchist moment and that's without all/most of the core features.

Well there's also the worry about censorship. I think TF2 has to have slightly different versions in other countries (Germany in particular) where instead of bloodsplater and limbs rending it's nuts and bolts and other various machine parts. Most people want body parts flying for some reason, I think the majority want them because they want to see undead zombies running around without arms ala walking dead. Honestly other than a point blank shotgun blast I doubt there's any weapons we have that would send body parts flying (and even the shotgun blast is unlikely)

Because Alpher. I'm sure it'll come it's just not a high priority.

Some berries are poisonous. Don't know exactly which ones but I think it's the sambuca or whatever it's called.
