Chenarus has airports already. Balota was suppose to be a civil airfield (at least in the mod), honestly I don't think there'ed be much more than a civil airfield in the sector of Chenarus we are currently in, this is a rather poor/rural country overall.

Enforcer kinda made my point for me, if slightly ruder. The part of Chenarus we play in is a bit too small to have more than a few weather zones. Now if the north had some high mountains I could see them being the 'snow zones' but that would still be a tiny sliver of the map. This is technically not Russia, kinda like how Ukraine technically isn't Russia either (for now at least, this statement may be invalid in a few hours), it would be along the southern boarder of Russia, and of course Russia isn't always snowing (depending on where you are that is). I expect the only way we'll see snow (other than them importing the mechanics from that VB3000 or whatever it's called) would be if they made a copy of the map for each season, which is unlikely.

Rags for stuffing/muffling, thous single strip ductape gags you see on TV are bullshit and are easy to get out of. Rag for stuffing the mouth, a rag/tape/rope to keep the stuffing in.

From what I understand underground is not easily done with the engine. Someone made a 'mine' with the mod but really all they did was put some fake terrain above an area and lower the terrain and plop in some buildings. For the prison, they had plans for one and it was suppose to be put on Utes Island. Now I've heard conflicting things, some say they scrapped Utes altogether, others say they just scraped the idea of putting the prison on Utes since it didn't feel right, like they just shoehorned it in and that they'll put it somewhere on the mainland assuming they don't make another island just for it. As for snow, unless they expand up north further I doubt they'll have a snow area (still possible) I don't know much about snowy climates, but I would assume just adding an Everest sized Mt. Zala just for snow might be a bit...I lack the words. Seasons are another thing that's not that easy to do in the engine currently.

Blindfold...you are one sadistic bastard. Also I see me and Irish visit the same websites. My uncle worked in what was basically a junkyard (he was a boat builder and the landowner was a family friend), one of the dogs there got ripped up by a stray dog. Pretty graphic, it's belly got ripped open, he took all the guts that had spilled out and put them back in, and used duct tape to seal em back up, worked and as far as I know the dog's still alive. (3 Guesses as to what his new name is)

Peak cap would be pretty nifty. Don't know why I like those large Commie Caps but I do. As for an Indian headdress? Seriously?

You were either caught cheating (with scripts more than likely, not 100% sure if dupers get banned as well), or illigit scripts were found on your computer. No one here can help you, go contact Battle Eye if you truly think this was a mistake, if you are a filthy scripkiddy don't even bother.

That's beer, Kvass is...not quite beer from my understanding. It's considered a soft drink in Russia/post Soviet countries.

First of all, rocket does not want NPCs or any other non animal or non zombie AI. Neither does he want artificial safe zones. He wants things to be player driven. Even if he did want both this would not reduce KOS, as mentioned above one or two snipers can effectively shut down the 'trading post'. Arma AI are 'dumb' and at the same time godlike. They walk in wide zigzag patterns or just stand around, they can see through walls yet at the same time won't move for cover, and they shoot dead on. The '-to reduce KOS' suggestions are a bit played out at this point. The only way KOS is gonna get reduced by any good amount is when the next big FPS game comes along or they get bored of DayZ. The other way is when they add in things to do other than gear up and kill/kidnap/torture people. Some kind of trade system other than 'you drop your thing and I'll drop mine and we switch spots and hopefully the shit won't be bugged' would be nice. A mousewheel option 'Give/trade to' on items. Hold a can of beans/whatever and hover over a person, the option would be 'hand to' or 'trade with' player, and you'd get a message saying 'X is trying to give you Can of Beans' or 'X wants to trade you Can of Beans' the other player equipts the item they want to trade and do the same thing, in teh case of trade it would be 'Y wants to trade Can Opener for your Can of Beans." and you would have to accept/deny the trade.

No, no one knows, I don't think even the Devs know really when vehicles will be ready. They have said that bicycles will be the first to be implemented as they are fairly easy to do. Keep in mind they pretty much (thankfully) started from scratch for the vehicles, so that hopefully when you're giving a nice person a ride in your Land Rover and you hit a small stone wall that's hidden by the tall grass you don't get stuck and go from full health to killing the now AFK hero and nearly killing yourself. But we'll just have to WAIT and see.

From what I was told, the way the engine currently is, if we were to have different 'seasons' they would have to make 3-4 copies of the map and change the textures to match the season and some minor terrain modifications (snowbanks, making lakes freeze over, ect), meaning you couldn't just have it snow and it would cover the ground in snow, kinda like how it doesn't flood when it rains. This MAY change (I've heard some rumors a little while ago)

Thanks, forgot the name of it, and I meant that was the only one with decent speed. Sounds sweet, they might be able to implement it into the DayZ engine (it's called that now since it's different enough from TOH) if they get it working. They're going to add Utes island in sooner or later, they don't have it in now because it would just use up resources and there'd be no real good way to get to it till they add in the revamped vehicles (IE boats). Not to mention the map team are probably still working on it.

They had boats in the Mod, with the exception of the zodiac (or whatever it's Russian designation was) they were fairly useless as they were very slow (I swear that one 'pleasure craft' used a power drill as an outboard, I can SWIM faster than that in real life). With the addition of Utes they shouldn't be as useless, even as slow as they were in the mod, they'ed be less so if there was a river(s) that could be used to travel inland, but I digress. The only bad thing about the boats in the mod was that you could not simply get up and walk about them, you either drove, sat in a passenger seat, or were thrown overboard. I doubt that would change easily (but there's always hope that they alter the physics/mechanics enough so that our 'dreams' of walking around an RV/Bus that's going 60MPH down the coast road and shooting back at bandits may come true)

Another one? Horses are unlikely to happen before bikes. For one, they'ed need to model a horse, then they'ed have to have it animated correctly. Not to mention program it to behave right (IE not explode if it hit's a rock going too fast, this is not a Michael Bay film) I've seen video of a horse someone modded into Arma2, it looked HORRIBLE. A horse shaped bike that flips worse than ATVs on bridges. And this isn't even dealing with all the 'realism' this would spit in the face of. I highly doubt there'd be wild horses in Chenarus, there'd probably be a few horses around in barns assuming they didn't get killed by their infected owners. IDK about you but the last time I rode a horse it was well trained horse used to strangers riding it and I had it's handlers right there to hold the reins and tell me what to do. Can't just slap on a stetson hat and toss a saddle on random horses and play out your Rick Grimes fantasies. Not against horses at all, just don't think we should say 'make horses the first 'vehicle' we add in rather than bicycles first that are almost done and fairly simple.

Currently no, and I don't think it will happen like that. Right now it only 'resets' on server reset. As it stands now if you put something on the ground it will stay till server restart. Maybe when they make it so you can barricade houses and they add in 'containers' such as fridges items placed on the ground will be persistent. But I think loot will stay when they get item respawns. I tried to make a 'camp' once in Berezino by putting all the books I found, some canned food ect in the 2nd story of a building. Dropped a lantern and stove and turned both on. Server restarted and all of it was gone.

It's lag more than likely. Just do something else for 5 mins and join a server that's currently daytime, or another night server and hope that you get your light. I've had this happen more than once on stable where when I first opened my inventory to put my battery in my light I had neither. Was bright enough with the moon so I just started scavenging, opened my inventory again to check something on the ground's condition and I had my flashlight and battery.

Most of this has already been suggested or confirmed, but at least it's better than 90% of the 'Walking Dead Suggestions' we get like 'whn u die u bcomb zombie nd hav prison to tak ovr'.

I shall have to convert a few to the Church of the Infinity Turtles. Our Commandments are as follows. I. Do what you will. II. Seek adventure. III. Eat cake. IV. Kick butt. V. Breed insanity. And of course the Sins... I. Thou shalt not be boring. II. Thou shalt not overdose on chocolate. III. Thou shalt not eat poison cake. IV. Thou shalt not become a zombie locked up in some shitty morgue. V. Thou shalt not be boring.

This...they actually turned off fall damage at one point, people complained about not being able to commit suicide because of it so they added it back in. Can't please everyone.

*dusts off a picture* Wish I could remember who originally made/posted this.

Honestly, I'd rather just be able to spray flat colors on weapons, or in very limited cases combine colors for simple camo (like on the mosin). Then again I've always been a fan of woodgrain as opposed to plastic. Aside from using ducktape to apply certain mods/items (IE craft double clips or tape a flashlight to a gun) I'd like to see VERY rare rail kits that can be applied to civilian guns (IE install a rail kit on a 10/22's receiver to be able to put on a RDS or ACOG, or another on the barrel to be able to mount weapon flashlights or lasers when added). I've recently been looking at 'prepper' style vids where mag pouches for stocks are becoming popular, these and side saddles would be nice for weapons as a means of storing some ammo on the gun itself (lets say 1 mag up to 30 rounds for the pouch, 8 shells for side saddles (B95, Shotgun, ect), using the saddles would allow for using R to reload without a snap loader.

Won't happen as long as rocket's in charge (and hopefully it won't happen after that as well).

Not this week, I believe they'll try and get it out next week.

I believe this is one of the times we're justified to do so. *throws up glitter in the air* IT'S AN ALPHA!! Everything is a placeholder, considering until just recently an ax or fist hitting anything but a body sounded like a gunshot we should not be surprised. Give it time and it will get better. *sweeps glitter up off of the floor*

Start out by verifying your cache via steam. Others with more helpful advice will probably post soon. Only other thing I can think of is to uninstall and reinstall DayZ.
