Then find another server and move on, if its been a year any gear you might have had might have been deleted. I've never heard of CBL before and if you're not banned by Battle Eye you should be golden for any other server. And if you look at the most recent posts in your old appeal, Smash has given you an answer, no need to get rude in an IM.

Nope, no one here is in charge of Global bans. You have to talk to Battle Eye, as well as remove your hacks and scripts.

There was this one anime movie (forget the name of it, had something to do with wolves) Where this resistance group was passing around wine bottles filled with napalm and with a piece of phosphorus (or some other such substance that reacts violently with air) inside, no rag to light, can actually use the neck as a throwing handle for more distance. This wasn't just a Budweiser bottle with some turpentine and a rag in it.

I do think that rooms should be darker than they are now, but unless its a windowless room at the end of a long windowless hallway there will be some kind of light so it won't be pitch black. All the barns except one (at least that I'm aware of) have windows of some type (the long horse/cow barns have windows throughout them, the tall barns have two circular windows near the top of them, the only one that doesn't has huge doors that are almost as high as the building that are usually open on at least one side. Yes I do think they need to work on the light (don't know if its possible or not with the engine, I know shit about computer engines), and while I don't think it should be pitch black it should be dark enough at times/places that you should need a flashlight/chemlight to see well. But I also think that if your night vision has developed (natural night vision, not the goggles) you would be able to see all but the absolute pitch black rooms. To use that 'infamous' picture of the Ferrari, I'd rather Rocket get the wheels and engine mounted on that sucker rather than focus on the rear left passenger window tinting.

More antiquated yet effective weapons.

I thought Mosin Nagants were pretty much already confirmed for standalone? From my understanding you'll find just a regular Mosin, find a scope and mount for it, and combine the two to get a mosin with a scope. Or you could combine the same scope and mount to a Lee, or the same scope to an AK, ect. Much as I would like to strut down the Streets of Chenro with a Thompson (M1921 or M1A2) or a Grande and a Fedora, I'd settle for an PPSh or SKS. (while I doubt they'ed add things like MP40s and K98s, They did kinda get sold everywhere on blackmarkets after the war) Off topic, I find it somewhat strange that Book Burning (something the nazis did, though they weren't the first and definitely wont be the last to partake in the activity), a guy with a Nazi for his Avatar and a Grammar Nazi were the first three posts. -
Pitch black? No. Darker? Yes. There's these things called windows (my ancestors called them puka) that let light in. And it's not like they can just say 'be pitch black durring the middle of the day' to the buildings. Now a windowless room should probably be pretty close to pitch black, at least what's not hit by light from the open door. Most buildings like this just appear to be pitch black because our vision is adjusted to full light while we're outside.

Do they charge money to make an account on their forums? If so I'm sure you can google the information.

Thous are the Dark Places Simba...we do not go there.

I think I suffered from some intelligence loss from reading some of thous reddit posts...no wonder I've never tried it before.

For standalone, I don't want to see these vehicles just 'spawn in'. I would like to see it if we can 'craft' the cars that spawn in. As someone said above, make your own technical out of a hatchback or something, you would of course need a gun and some other parts to make it work, as well as have to stock it with ammo (could be a simple as an AKM mounted to the top of a hatchback with a hole cut in the roof. Think that it should be made so that you cant just mount a m240 on a car, then jump from the driver seat to the gunner's seat via a menu, you should have to jump out of the car, then get back in through the gunner's door. To even mounting an actual heavy machine gun on a UAZ or something). I also think we should be able to 'armor' up vehicles a little bit, mount a steel plate/sheet of plywood over the windows for extra protection. Its been said that when they do add vehicles one of the things they want to do is let us 'mad max' em up a bit (wrap the car in razor wire, mount tank traps on the front as a battering ram, tie a naked femboy to the rear bumper...wait what? DAMNIT STEAK get out of my head!)

SA OREGON TRAIL STYLE IDEA!!!
IkaikaKekai replied to TheOldManoftheNorth's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Did you just hone in on the word 'classes'? Because I listened to what Holy One said, "I say this word and its going to Haunt me (seams to have come true)...it wont be classes that we (the developers) make, it'll be classes that the players generate through their play style..." Most 'Hero' players play as medics as is, we have people who all they do is snipe, then there's guys like me who avoids other players whenever he can and just hangs out in the woods hunting wildlife and surviving. He's not going to add a Doctor class, or a Mechanic class, or a Solider class to the game. Players will do that on their own is what he's saying. -

Well that's kinda the thing, you can't really just boil seawater in a pot and it will be desalinized. Salt doesn't just 'cook off', if anything the water in the pot would just get more salty as it steams, at the very least you would need a still, and I'm not even sure if that would work to remove enough salt. -

Don't like the idea about spawning based on 'class'. It's months after the initial infection. Dunno about you but if I was a doctor/nurse I would not hang around a hospital all that time just because I'm a doctor/nurse. I'd be either cowering in my house or out in the forest avoiding zombies. I'd much prefer everyone spawn on the coast as a 'noob' (assuming skills don't transfer over after death), or even at 'random' points at the edge of the map (near a road or path or something) -

IkaikaKekai replied to joe_mcentire's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
That would take a lot of work but would be pretty cool. Would definately lead to some trolling (what doesnt?). Don't put your box of ammo in a fire...(unless you're being robbed by a bandit at your camp) Don't put your grenade in a fire...(unless you're being robbed by a bandit at your camp) Don't put your jerry can in a fire...(unless you're being robbed by a bandit at your camp) Don't put your only set of clothes in a fire during the middle of winter...(unless the clothes were infected anyway) Don't walk barefoot over broken glass...(unless...okay I can't think of a situation to do that) Don't put water in your gas tank, don't drink water out of a gastank. -
This is the internet, people would complain about a solid gold statue. But yeah I could see complaints coming no matter what they do with a hind (or anything else for that matter) even if they add it in with no working weapons, 'OMG FUCKING OP! NERF NERF!' 'WTF WHY U NO PUT GUNS ON HIND?! BUFF!' 'A small country like Chenarus realistically wouldn't be able to afford Hinds with it's limited defense budget.' 'dey shud add moar Merican choopers! no tdis commie bullshid!!!1111oneoneuno'
-
Most of em probably got bored/banned. Either one is good in my opinion.
-
A Hind would make sense. Didn't they have some heavy transport only models or am I thinking of the Hip?
-
Make a meal. Can of beans and a porkchop is much more filling than either. I honestly think we should be able to cook/warm canned food as well for a 'moral' boost or what have you.
-
I want a Bell 47 so I can fly neardeads to medics.

Zombies usually spawn in or near buildings, as well as randomly in fields. It's strange that there's so many but it might be the server you're playing on. Some private hives raise/lower the spawn timer of zombies or even the amount to adjust the difficulty.
-
Zombies usually spawn before loot, you're either experiencing a bug or some server lag.
-
This is probably the wrong topic to ask this, but it could be related. Was it ever said that we could turn on a flashlight, drop it on the ground, and it'll stay on? Could see this as either a distraction at night or a means of having hands free light. With a laser pointer I could see it being used as either a beacon or something for someone with NVG. 'I put my laser pointer on the ground near my camp facing the city, you can follow the beam to my camp.' or as a trap.

Don't think its gonna happen, I remember Rocket mention it in the past, some kind of limitation with the engine.
