Hi. This is getting pretty silly. You will never convince the people that enjoy exploiting 3PP that its bad. They obviously know it's wrong, but they won't admit it, it's akin to trying to convince a cheater not to cheat, just isn't going to happen, they will tell you some stupid crap like 'your tears sustain me' lol. They typically won't even admit that seeing over that 7 foot high wall is wrong. :huh: Also I seriously doubt the devteam will do anything to fix the issue. But here's some :beans: for all you guys that are trying. Regards.

Hi. To be honest, I never even tried it on. I figured it would be inferior to my uk assault vest, so tossed it in my backpack to keep in case my assault vest got damaged, or if I found someone to give it too. Eventually I ended up tossing it to make space for something else. Going by what I read on DayZDB or whatever its called, I wouldnt expect it to be all that good anyhow. Though I don't know how much info there is accurate, or just personal opinion. Going by their description of the rifles I tend to think its more opinionated though. Regards.

I found one in the shipwreck, but it was too badly damaged to bother using. I also found a pristine stab proof vest in the shipwreck a different day. Regards.

HaHa. Now the cheats will have a party train instead of the party bus. Regards.

+1 It would also be great to be able to move around in buildings, and through doorways like in ArmA 3. Though I guess ArmA 3's animations are very military-like, which is something Rocket said he tried to get away from in SA. Regards.

Hi. If you really want singleplayer you could set up a locked private hive server, once the option is available. No idea if it's worth the server rental fees to you or not though. Regards.

Hi. lol. I don't combat log, but at the same time I could care less about it. In fact I get a good laugh every time I see somebody crying about it. Especially when it's one of the super leet pro PVP types that say there isn't and shouldn't be any kind of rules in DayZ(until somebody does something they don't like, that is). Regards.

LoL ! You really are uninformed. Zoom? The so called 'zoomed-in' setting is actually the proper 1:1 view setting. The game, like the whole ArmA series, defaults to a false zoomed out setting to try and compensate for the lack of FOV on your average sized pc monitor. Regards.

Hi. Not really trying to contradict you or anything, but I had zombies come up the stairs to the second floor of the school building the first day I played SA. Regards.

Hi. I'd love to see some changes to the Zeds that would actually add more difficulty to the pve aspect. Say, like in the movies, only head shots could kill them. A bullet in the leg would reduce them to walking speed only, bullet in both legs make them crawl. Bullet in the torso make them pause/step back for about a second, before continuing after the player. Sure head shots on zeds are easy, but when/if the zed count is increased enough, head shots become more difficult. Picture having to head shot a swarm of 20-40 zeds in a few seconds, things would change drastically. Suddenly the zeds are a threat instead of a mere nuisance, especially in 1PP. Of course then all the pure DM PVP guys would probably complain, but I personally think the game would be much better. Regards.

Hi. Maybe it's due to your location/time of day that you play, but for my playtimes I USUALLY see no more than 0-8 people in servers, unless its a 24/7 daylight server, regardless of 3PP on or off, which I want no part of. That 24/7 daylight is IMHO the worst setting to have unlocked on the official hive. Regards.

HaHa How many times I had less than 30 minutes to run up north searching for my corpse, because some Zed 1 shot punched me off my ATV. Or maybe the best for me was at NWAF took me till the last 2 minutes to find my ghille suited corpse in tall grass, even though I could hear the damned flies buzzing around it :lol: , as well as the firefight still raging on the other side of the buildings. Beans to you good sir, for bringing back those memories! Regards.

Hi. LoL! I personally have nothing against 3PP on its own, just the use of its exploits. If they added something like the 4th wall fix, then it would be perfectly fine mixing the 2 views on same server. Regards.

Hi. I agree wholeheartedly, but I get the impression they are scared to mess with it at all(if any devs read this I don't mean that in a derogatory way, I would fear losing income too). At least they ARE going in a more hardcore fashion for most other things, rather than trying to make another mainstream FOTM clone. Regards.

Hi. In all honesty I was just throwing reality in there as an excuse, because I don't really think helo's should be in DayZ anymore than battletanks. :lol: Either way, I'm pretty sure they will be in sooner or later. At least I haven't seen anything saying they won't be. Regards.

Hi. 3PP exploitation is for the meek, but since the vast majority are only using the 3PP servers the devs aren't going to remove it. Really would you throw your money away if you were in that situation? Regards.

Hi. I liked that map and forests as well, but I think too many people are struggling performance-wise with SA the way it is(and thats with a serious lack of features implemented). Hopefully after the game goes gold it will become moddable, and people can port maps in(with the map creators permission of course). As much as I like Chernarus, the added variety of some well made mod maps can only improve things. Regards.

There is another new gun coming in, so chances are there will be more weapons overall on server restart than there was before. Regards.

LoL, I hear you. Probably wouldn't be too much fun from a standstill on your way up Mount Panorama without one. :P

Hi. Of course cheating will ruin your experience. I guess I've been lucky so far in SA. In the mod I saw plenty of it, teleporting, mass killing, city&airfield nuking, etc, etc. Even on whitelisted servers lol. Since SA doesn't work on the cd-key system, at least they should get perma-banned. Well, at least the ones who aren't willing to buy the game again, and again. Regards.

Hi. My guess is those would mostly be the same people that will only play on 24/7 daylight servers, and just want the game dumbed down more and more, so no sweat off my back, good riddance I say. Besides, it looks like private hives are going to arrive a lot faster than I expected, I'm sure there will be plenty of DM oriented servers where you spawn fully kitted to keep the easy mode playerbase happy. Regards.

Hi. I read somewhere in the forum that the so called 'lore' of DayZ involves some type of civil war, with NATO forces in to aid in some way. If this is true it would totally explain the western weapons. That said, gimme an AK-74 with kobra optics please :lol: , I'm not really the snipe from 1200 meters away type, though I'm definitely not complaining about those pesky snipers. Regards.

Hi. Why do so many people assume anyone with gear is server hopping? The last time I died was the night before they moved the player spawns to east coast. I was lucky and got the baloota spawn, 15 minutes later I had an axe, M4 with Magpul parts, pristine optics, 2 60 round clips, about 60 extra rounds, and at least 1/2 military clothing. Next day I went back in same server and got another 60 round clip, more ammo, a 357 with lots of ammo, and the rest of the military clothing, all pristine...Then I wandered across the map, by the time I got to the east side I had full map, pristine can opener, 2 or 3 canteens and the list goes on... Just don't understand why people think its so hard to gear without hopping... Of course I don't play on the 24/7 daytime servers, thats probably where the difference is, though it will change as the spawn system is improved. Regards.

Hi. I wouldn't expect the timer to be raised, since the whole point of it is to stop you from recovering your gear. It also adds a higher level of risk for bandits looting their prey, which I really like. Maybe it should be reduced more. Regards.

Hi. your right there are many things to be addressed, damn alphers... On a sidenote those servers you mention can be reported and then they get taken down, without refund. Regards.
