    Backpacks sugestion for the game.

    Last thing we need is for the dayz team (they dont even have a name how sad is that) to use their precious time creating more cosmetic items

    Realism Vs. Balance

    In real life gun makers don't create firearms with the mindset that they are "balanced" against other weapons.. bigger rounds simply have a tendency to fuck more shit up.. leave balance to arcade games like cod and battlefield

    Honestly i don't understand people like you.. You make it seem like someone is attacking your girlfriend or something. It';s just a game..can't you just accept the fact that some aspects of dayz need tuning? Isn't that why we are alpha testers? We are doing our jobs by pointing out things that need tuning. If we were all like you pretending everything about the game was flawless than the devs might as well just stop working on it and go on to the next project. We are all on the same side here...we all want dayz to be the best game possible. We aren't trying to hurt your feelings by pointing out minor game-play issues lol And no they are not aware of every issue..They are not psychic People can write 1000 things wrong with dayz and you will quickly jump up and try and convince us its somehow OUR fault not the games.. You should be a defense lawyer lol "It was an accident the gun accidentally went off causing a bullet to richochet off the chandelier, the bedpost, the windowsill, the doorknob, than right into the victims head.. And the semen found inside the victim must have accidentally gotten in there by a mistakenly reused wet-nap"

    Suggestion List to make the game more playable

    I think they should put very small airplanes (size of a small car) just laying around in certain places not too rare, just like the tourist-owned ones in real life. Simple and easy to control and land in small places and the center of city streets (just please dont use the arma aircraft controls)

    Its not a matter or being realistic or not.. It's just the way these things occur in-game that induce mild annoyance overtime.. These annoyances are fine in small doses, But in dayz they are everywhere and and far too common.. I am just worried because continuous exposure to these small annoyances can increase the users risk of throwing his/her monitor off of a five story building rooftop endangering all bystanders below.. So yes i think these issues should be looked into

    Yeah you are right, next time i am being chased by a zombie in real life i will come to a complete stop before throwing my rifle over my shoulder and when i am bleeding about to die i will look into the sky and say "at least i died realistically"

    Couldn't agree more, it seems like most alpha/beta's i participate in seem this way. People act like everything will get fixed but when the time comes we are still stuck with all these same issues. ESPECIALLY coming from a long time player of the dayz free mod and everyone always saying "ohh you jsut wait till standalone comes out" acting as if it would be a completely different base structure altogether. Sadly.. the best we can do as alpha testers is complain and hope someone in a higher-up position agrees lol

    I thought about it but these are not bugs however, they seem to be intended game elements .. and when i tried the bug section it is not even a forum its just an index listing And does it really matter? topic in the wrong place is that your biggest bit of action for the day?

    Yeah in real life if someone was chasing me i could BOOK it up a case of stairs
  12. As much as i would like to go on 4 hour dayz gaming marathons, there are many very TINY aspects of the game that slowly nick away at my patience and cause me to call it quits sooner than i had initially planned. Here are some that i noticed EDIT: I know things like putting away weapons take time, but its the length of time and the way the game forces you to stop and wait for all these things that induces mild frustration after prolonged exposure -Slowing down while walking up staircases -Slowing down while walking up slight inclines -Waiting for character to begin moving again after falling from small heights (even 12 inches) -Having to put down fists in order to crouch or prone -Waiting for character to completely slide down a set of stairs (in stiff upright position) before being able to move again. -Steep slow down of characters body motion while turning mouse left or right -Waiting for character to completely stop and complete an action while running from zombies -Waiting for character to come to a complete stop before being able to crouch or prone -Waiting for continuous repeat user commands to finish entire can of food or water (takes forever) -Waiting for character to slowly put away items before being able to grab ladder (should throw weapon over shoulder while grabbing ladder in one fluid motion) -Waiting for character to revert to crouch again before fully standing up -Waiting for character to continue moving again after switching weapons -Waiting for character to fully complete an animation after accidentally pressing the wrong key (step over animation, prone, weapon switch etc) -Waiting for dropped loot to appear on floor -Scrolling up and down to select different options -Having to manually empty hands before carrying out other actions (should do that automatically, or should we need to instruct character when to breath as well?) -All non-interruptible animations (as stated by duenen) -Scroll to open door.. nope.. door opens me (hetstaine) i know some of you are going to freakout and write "ITS ALPHA" as if all the devs are Magically psychic and aware of every single existing problem beforehand. But the fact of the matter is that they do not. So its our job to help address issues and its just stupid if you attack people who do.

    Rocket standing down from Dayz by end of year

    yeah i know right haha.. this guy is so delusional and narcissistic that he actually believes we will support him in future game developments when he cant even stick through the alpha of one of the most important IP's of all time

    Why is everything dean hall talks about say have to do with.. "when i need to go home" "they will do fine without me blah blah blah" "a good leader is someone who teaches there team to do good although im not here" JESUS CHRIST DUDE.. Is that all you talk about?? leaving?? Mount everest is the only place that could get you far away enough from dayz? It seems like all dean hall has ever cared about since first starting dayz is getting as far away from it as possible.. This dayz IP could be the next biggest thing since VALVE and 99% of all REAL game developers who are not afraid of their own shadow would give an arm and a leg to be project lead of such a title. And all he cares about is getting as far away as possible?? If you stopped doing so much thinking about "what i want in my heart wahhh" and just sat down and started working instead of whining it would be freaking done by now..Its just a freaking video game not a prison sentence. Are you that much of a pussy that you want to go home to your mommy? your like 40 or some shit grow up.. Put on your big boy pants, purchase a game studio, have all your developers come together under one roof, buy a redbull machine for the office, buy a toaster oven and pizza bagels, and just have a blast while being part of one of the biggest momumental moments of video game history you pussy! Is he seriously thinking about his next game when he is smack dab in the center of the birth of one of the biggest IP's to ever hit gaming?? Dude needs to be put in a mental institution if you ask me If your heart is not into it than step down and let one of the other thousands of game developers who would give an arm and a leg to have such an awesome job You have been in charge of dayz for the last two years.. YOU HAVENT DONE JACK SHIT to the game.. and you make it seem like you are a slave working in a sweatshop crying about every little thing.. "i want to be free and climb mountainssss" "i want to quit the military and do what my heart tells meee" "I want to go homeee" wahhh im a little baby who nicknames myself rocket.. do you also have racecar bordered wallpaper and a teddybear?

    Or to shorten the list.. what isn't Plus dean hall leaving might be the best thing thats ever happened to this game..Do you we really want someone who's heart isn't 100% into it leading our favorite game??The last thing we need is some guy with a glass is half empty attitude .To say that he can't make the changes to the game that everyone is hoping for is like a skinny girl crying saying that she is fat
