Now if certain wildlife was (more) aggressive as well (so far that would only be Boars) or would at least try to defend themselves against zombies or even players that got too close that would be awesome. And as cruel as it sounds, leaving the pigs alive was more 'tempting' for the zombies. It still kinda sucks that they made the pigs unable to run/limp away (thereby leading the zombies even further away).

...Perhaps they AREN'T placeholder animations but the final ones for pistols..but a secret shooting technique. .

One thing I didn't understand about Rick in that Scene. Now I can understand using them as a distraction (and fully support the idea), but breaking/cutting their legs? Tie some tin cans to the little bastards, maybe break one leg so they don't go too fast, and let them run around and pull the zombies further away from the fence.

@Vindicator, you may be on to something. Hello, my name is Mike, though you probably don't care BECAUSE YOU SHOT ME AND TOOK MY STUFF YOU ASSHOLE! If you just found my dead body randomly, I apologize for calling you an asshole. Please take what you will (with the exception of my Ax) and douse my body in gasoline and set me on fire in accordance with my spiritual beliefs. Should there not be any gasoline available, please pull the pin on the grenade I keep in my left pocket in case of Bandits or Kidnappers and run.

I think they're going for simplicity right now. Thought it would be nice if later on for the character creator we get to choose a font as our handwriting (I think I know a few people who would chose Comic Sans on this forum) Off-topic/Hypetrain: Been a lot of spammer attacks lately. Not to mention the DDOS the other day. Wondering if they know something we don't, and that this website's about to get a lot more popular, Steam Sale aside...#cautioushypetrain #ohgodthepoundsignsaregainingsentienence! #godhelpme

@Grabarz I would say at this point it would be useless to try and contact anyone working the Dev team right now as a 'random' person, regardless of trying to help. Just thinking of Dean/Matt, Imagine how much PMs Tweets ect ect they get EVERY Second asking 'y u no release stablone' 'can u unban me' and any other bullshit. I saw about 10 seconds of chat on the twitch stream before I turned it off.

Explain heroes and bandits to me.
IkaikaKekai replied to wondermonkeys09's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It was a limited mechanic. The system can't really detect self defense kills. The Hero/Bandit skin was an attempt to help identify thous players who actually want to help form the kill you and wear your face crowd. Sadly it was exploited (bandits would blood bag each other to get the hero skin, and some legit friendly/hero players got bandit skins from defending themselves). If you kill a survivor (standard skin) or hero you lose humanity, if you kill a bandit or perform medical actions on someone (blood bagging, bandaging, giving morphine/painkillers/EPen/antibiotics) gives you humanity. It won't be in the standalone, just be glad about that. -
Would have to agree, not many people would take up the mantle of weather man post Z day, not to mention most of the equipment not being online. Though if the radio network is set up correctly and weather behaves almost like it's real life (as in it moves) then survivors could radio in to the friendly stations that are playing music and what not and say 'Oh, bad storm in Berezino heading south west.' From what I was told, for seasons they would need to basically make a copy of the map for each season (winter, fall, spring, summer, though some argue that spring and summer can use the same map). Retexture the ground and buildings, replace the trees and their leaves with fall and snowy versions, change the zombie textures slightly (don't know about behavior, but make their 'clothes' look more winterized, snow/mud on their shoes and shoulders, frost, ect). I would like seasons in at one point (I would love if they were 'Real Time' (and I don't mean a real time transition, more of a it's winter in game when it's winter in real life) rather than a spring one week, summer one week, ect.

While your waiting for a better answer you might want to verify the files on Steam (assuming your here because of the sale)
-
As far as I know, none of the addons should interfere with playing the mod (BAF and PMC actually should boost some of the textures). I don't really know how to help you but the others who can will probably ask 'what are you using to launch' (steam, play with six, dayzcommander) and some other questions, so you might want to add that info in to save a post.

how did people get SA invites for pre-alpha?
IkaikaKekai replied to DropBearChick's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I tried to rob someone who was given an invite using a crossbow, but it was no good because there was blood all over it. -
A DDOS and now a bunch of trolls showing up (not necessarily in this topic). I have a felling the graveyard's gonna have a lot of freshly turned earth before the night's over.

They've confirmed zombies will run indoors, and they're working on the wall issue with zombies (zombies only detect floor so they 'cut' the floor where the wall is or some such)

take all the time you need to make the SA
IkaikaKekai replied to ManOpeace's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I would honestly say the only thing that's delaying the Alpha release at this point is the reason they gave us, Stability. They've said in the past that they'll fix/add in things after the release. It would not do them well if they lied about why they're not releasing, and honestly wouldn't make sense. -

IkaikaKekai replied to ManOpeace's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I smell the graveyard, but I would agree. Though I believe more likely the Greeks will try to arrest BIS for some bullshit reason. They do update us more or less everyday, its minor information and pictures but still. -
The 'problem' with WarZ was that it was a rushed game trying to cash in on DayZ's success. There was quite a bit of info that was outright lies that was released (how long it was in production, and a few others) and many 'promises' were made about what would be in at it's release (many maps, 100+ person servers, ect ect) that they never delivered (with the exception of the fully working microtransaction store, that worked perfectly from what I heard). For those saying that the game is being deliberately delayed so they can stuff more features in I'd call bullshit. The reason why we keep seeing more features added is because there is a TEAM working on it now, not just Rocket. And that team is split up into many different experts and fields. An artist can't really help out with the network bubble, or with stability, so rather than just sitting on a shelf they keep plugging away at the models of buildings or guns or other items to add in.

More animals that react to players behavior
IkaikaKekai replied to Blaster271's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
If it's free it's not DLC or an Expansion, its a patch. -
Optimization won't 'stop' just because they hit Alpha. Hell, it won't stop even after 'final' release.

If you had the opportunity to add one pistol
IkaikaKekai replied to jebruhal@gmail.com's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Taurus Judge or comparable pistol. Revolver, capable of chambering .410 bore, .45 ACP and .45 Long Colt and some models can take .454 Casull Leaning towards this when I move to the Big Island. -
what questions would you like answered before buying the SA ?
IkaikaKekai replied to dgeesio's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Question: Can you wake me up when you release it? Or even an hour or two after you release it. -
*opens the brake valve cock on the last car, negating the purpose of an old black man running on the tops of cars to apply hand breaks* And hype train stopped. (I'm the fucking Neil Degrasse Tyson of trains sadly, stopped me from fully enjoying Unstoppable and Lone Ranger...as well as getting pissed off at some of the things in GTA 5)

There's no real way to block 3rd party programs (legally anyway), even then people will find/make bypasses
