By law (at least in the United States) canned (and possibly bagged kibble) dog and cat food is required to be safe for human consumption to be sold in the US. Sure you're getting the cheep ass cuts of meat (probably just one step bellow what you're getting at Taco Bell) but it's safe to eat. You think that's bad, my brother bought some dried dog treats that was NOT fit for human consumption (and was printed right on the package in not so tiny letters) and was being sold as beef jerky, the clerk selling it didn't even know till he pointed out the label (packaging was extremely similar to Jerky normally sold ((think it was the same company)) ) And that was the 2nd to last bag on the shelf as well...*hands Lancer a Bucket*

aye, although for me the animation seams glitched, soon as i raise my hands i lower them and pick up my gun again.

I've heard Rocket touch on something like this for SA, still a good idea and sounds a bit more in depth than what Rocket said (at the time anyway). Would be awesome if he makes it the way you're saying.

It is true, to be 'replaced' by radios. which you will have to find, loot, and tune to the right frequency. They will be both VOIP and text chat.

Well, to be honest I'm sure it has, just more along the lines of 'dey shud add in flarguns on baots sew we kan set de zombies on fire!'

Most flares of that type are parachute flares, so they would stay in the air longer. Would be good if you could use this 12 gauge flare in compatible shotguns (thinking the double barrel) and use the flaregun like a shot pistol.

I would agree, to really lower KOS they would have to make you feel guilty about killing people, but that's pretty difficult to be honest. A pile of dead bodies in real life would only make me feel a bit nauseous (because of the smell, pile of dead dogs and someone's going to die by my hand), a pile of pixels representing dead bodies won't really impact everyone. The only time I've felt guilty about killing someone in any game (is usually with NPCs) is if they're 'good guys' or 'innocent', or some other tug at your heartstrings moment, (kill someone, turn around and a little kid asks "Have you seen my daddy?"). Ammo scarcity will probably only make a few more people wounder if its worth shooting someone (or get VERY good at shooting), but it's still worth a try. But really the only thing that will stop KOS is the players themselves. Once a while ago, I was looting the airtower at Balota and just about to leave. Guy ran past me and upstairs yelling friendly and had 10 or so zombies following. Waited for him to clear the line of fire and started shooting zombies. Zombies dead I walk up the stairs to check on the guy (pretty sure I had my gun lowered) and get shot in the head. Bitched in side and he claimed I shot him first. So we'll probably never get rid of KOS completely.

Aim for the head (Edit Or heart) PERIOD. Just as a god damn courtesy for the person your shooting. Quick, fast death. Not a stomach shot that'll take an hour for me to die.

I consider myself a solo player (but will team up with anyone friendly, thus Stray Dog) and I don't KOS already. But I would think ammo scarcity (not nessicarily scarcity of other equipment/goods) would limit at least a little bit of KOS after a while. I'm guessing the 'average' KOSer (one who kills on sight because they've been killed so many times) as well as 'real' bandits (ones that just want your gear, not really caring if your alive or not at the end of the day) Will at least not kill on sight (possibly later if they determine a true threat) when they run into someone, bandits will probably rob the person they run into. Even the ones who KOS 'fer teh lulz' will eventually go away or wise up when they have to do a lot more work for their 'jollies'. Say you've got an AK74 and run into someone with a M16 and you get into a firefight. You win but you're down to 14 rounds of ammo, just used up your last morphine and bandage and only have a can of food and soda each. You go and loot the body, guy ran out of Ammo for his M16 during the fight and were attacking you with a makarov with 2 clips left when killed. He had two cans of food and NVG on him, but because of the firefight a couple rounds hit his equipment so both cans are FUBAR and the NVG are broken. Was that firefight worth it now that there's a group of zombies approaching to investigate the gunshots?

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for thee, and it looks like that fucker right there.

I thought they took away the storage capacity of campfires in the last patch?

I would also have the chat bubble show up when someone's using VOIP in direct. But this might be a bit difficult with what Rocket wants for Radios. (IE you put a radio down on your frequency, start talking to yourself on another radio, wait for idiot to show up when he hears your voice and blow up the bomb the 2nd radio is sitting on)

Maybe instead of a chatbubble with text above the head, just have a small chat bubble (if your within hearing range and only for direct) and keep the text box at the bottom. Or possibly keep both with an option to turn the chat bubbles off.

All praise the Amazing Horse and His Rider! *leaves some raisins as an offering before drinking of the sacramental lemonade*

Spammer, reported him and hoping my sacrifice to the Great and Powerful OrLok satisfies them.

There's no prison (Yet, maybe in Chenarus+) 2nd, they RUN not walk. Safe until bandits show up in large unorganized numbers with 3 badasses (I mean seriously wasting about 80 rounds of .50 BMG on a group of 20 or so slow moving zombies?)

Someone summon up the ghost of Johny Cash in a dark ritual so we can start recording 'I hung my Head(DayZ Remix)"

Just out of curiosity what does that mean? He can't post at all or admins need to give approval to all his posts?

I think we're saying No New York or LA or any of the 'major cities' that give tax credits to movies to shoot there. I would say maybe Michigan as a nod to Lord Romero. Preferably someplace with a Mall...okay scratch that, it's been overdone.

EDIT wait, reread the OP. Goodluck with your Global ban, might want to kick your friend square in the balls.

It got merged with the general DayZ discussion thread. I believe you SHOULD have gotten an automated message from one of the admins/mods letting you know and the reason why, but they mentioned something earlier about the website being hacked screwing with that.

"Early one morning, with time to kill, I borrowed Jeb's rifle, and sat on the hill. I saw a lone rider crossing the plain, I drew a bead on him to practice my aim. My clanmate's rifle went off in my hand, a shot rang out across the land. The horse he kept running, the rider was dead. He bitched in Side, He bitched in Side."

Am I the only one that wants whats his name to try and sue? If anything just to be browsing the news one day and see 'Judge Dismisses Slander case over video game video, Plaintiff's lawyer still expects to get paid.'

They could maybe do that one Dubai resort where they shaped the islands into a map of the world. Realisticly NOONE has the technology to perform that. We'd have to Hijack the NSA's shiny new supercomputer for just one server, and then it'd be loaded with dickpics, facebook posts, text messages, and the occasional terrorist banter. Japan would be lovely, it'd be pretty much city or mountain with farmland bordering the two. Not to mention the train network. OH GOD THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES WITH THE TRAIN NETWORK!

I barely heard 'get in' over the heli and gunshots...BARELY.
