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*dusts off a picture* Wish I could remember who originally made/posted this.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

Exactly above, people will just kill themselves till they get a military loadout.

The .44 Mag isn't the only cartridge that is shared by pistols/revolvers and rifles. Most of the examples I can think are western, but everything from the humble .22LR (which is confirmed with the 10/22) to even the 5.56 NATO is used in some 'pistols' (I use the word loosely in this case) and Rifles. There are 9mm (Luger) Carbines, not to mention SMGs, and even the .357 and .45LC is used interchangeably in some 'cowboy' guns (revolvers and lever actions)

Was going to say, didn't he say a while ago that his plan was to eventually step down from DayZ and start another game (not sure if it was a joke or serious about a mountain climbing simulator)?

I would suggest this kid's next kickstarter be to go to community college, take remedial English and business classes, as well as an economics class. I haven't even seen what his game is suppose to look like but that SHOULD help him right there.

I need to see this for myself, I need a good laugh. Mind PMing the link? I assume you didn't link it in the post for a reason. Never mind, I forgot Google existed for some reason. Will post my response momentarily. Oh god...my sides...okay so your first goal is to make the game available to all the consoles at 300k? BUT I only get a FREE copy of the game if I pay $100 or more? OMFG they're only going to have patches if they reach $1,000,000? Okay...are these guys really in college? This seams more like a highschool level project. I couldn't even finish watching the video, so much clipart and stock photo.

If they did add a meltdown nuke plant, there would probably be no zombies as they would/should die from radiation poisoning if it happened AFTER Z Day, or there would be no humans to infect if it happened BEFORE Z Day. I also don't see why it should have 'better' or more loot, as Chernobyl was pretty much just a civilian town, not a military base, they dropped what they were doing and GTFO. Plus, most of the loot there would be irradiated, so screw eating any food or wearing any clothes you found there. Now that said, lets say they do add a nuke plant, but that before everything went tits up they managed to do a proper shut down so it wouldn't melt down. I could still see there still being a few irradiated areas (namely waste storage, perhaps an easier way to get to the loot but with high risk of radiation) as well as a bit of zombies (guarding the non radioactive spots). The loot would probably be somewhere between Police and Military type loot for the plant itself, as well as industrial stuff for crafting/repairs when that gets implemented.

First, these are not undead zombies, they are living infected, meaning a shot to the heart will kill them same as a shot to the head. Zombies are currently being redone so we don't know how they'll behave till their patch gets pushed to at least experimental, and we don't have a solid timeframe for that (it'll be ready when it's ready). That being said there are different zombies that wear different clothes, things will be hashed out as things go on. The incurable infection would be a no go, but it will be likely when different sicknesses are implemented we can catch different diseases from them. Currently it seams zombies do attract other nearby zombies when they attack, or it could just be the noise you make from fighting the one zombie.

I believe it was said by rocket (I do NOT have a source but believe it was on this forums somewhere) that the street lights and such being on are 'bugged', meaning they shouldn't be on. In the Mod for a while all the street lights were on till they were 'fixed' in the next patch so it has happened before. AFAIK the only powerplant in Chenarus is in Electro, which would have shut down by now with no one working it. There's several possible ways that could explain the occasional streetlight being on aside from simply saying 'its bugged'. One of which is the possibility they have small solar cells and battery backups (unlikely but possible), or just battery backups and timers/sensors to turn on and off (more likely but still they would probably have run down by now). To get back on the original track, yes, there should be a lot of distraction sounds to use against zombies/players. That 'phantom chain fence' noise should not be phantom, when a player/zombie goes up against a chain fence or walks over a downed one it should make the noise. I don't know if car alarms are prevalent in post Soviet countries but they could still be viable. I think throwing items should definitely make noise, IE throwing a rock/brick at a fence or window, or a bottle or can to attract the zombies to it.

Aye, shoot him in the leg when he acts up.

Could be said about 99.999% of FPS games we enjoy (D-Day, Stalingrad, Pearl Harbor). It's probably considered more taboo because its actively going on and 'we' can see it in our livingrooms, or more accurately in this day, on our phones.

Only on private hives, and even then they won't be fully PVE, assholes will still join them despite white listing and kill as many people as they can before they get banned, probably even lie and say 'they shot me first I only defended myself'. Unless there's a feature where player damage can be turned off completely, as in you can headshot someone all day and you'll just be wasting ammo, there will never be full PVE.

These are otherwise known as speeders (at least in the US). They can run from very complex to as simple as a you have linked to. One we use at HRS is basically a Picnic table with flagged wheals and an old car engine hooked up to em. We also have a 1 cylinder engine speeder that can get pretty up there with speed. Most of these are fairly light, as they're meant for Maintenance of Way workers to use and get out of the way of regular rail traffic. I've seen one of these where two met on the tracks and stopped, one group took the bamboo platform off, picked up the motor, and picked the wheels off the track to allow the other to pass. Our speeders could be easily derailed by hand and pushed out of the way without disassembly. EDIT Usually not a good idea to bitch at mods when your post is questionable to say the least. As he said they can't screen every post for objectionable content, many rape posts have been buried/deleted, but for some reason a vocal minority would like this to be a rape simulator instead of a hiking simulator and derail several posts. I would give the advice the Amazing Horse has given in the past, if you have an issue with a Mod, take it up with another Mod or a Green Text mod such as Boneboys.
