I voted BattleEye improvements, but what has me very excited is the new zombie template system.

DayZ Virtual Paper Doll - Community Clothing Suggestions (v1.30)
gemellus replied to Evil Minion's topic in Suggestions
You forgot to add the PASGT, which is what the CDF uses. This should be the most common helmet available at military spawns and the ballistic helmet should be moved to NATO crash sites. -
Who still uses Mosin (+LRS) for range kills?!
gemellus replied to MarchmelloMan's topic in General Discussion
Ever since they released the repeater I've picked that over the Mosin everytime. -
I would really love to see a WW2 museum as a cool centerpiece for a city where you can loot surplus military weapons and uniforms. Not to mention Chernarus is not too far from Stalingrad.
-
Make the gun lists shape the lore. Chernarus has a revolution against the communist dictatorship during the 1950s or 1960s like Hungary or Czechoslovakia. The US arms the rebels with WW2 surplus like the Garand like the Bay of Pigs invasion. Old guerllia fighters from the revolution keep their Garands in sheds as keepsakes and personal defense. There, Garands now make sense in Chernarus.

What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?
gemellus replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
I'm watching GoldGlove's stream on Twitch. It just happened to him and he's absolutely speechless. Its real. -
It's a bit too easy, but its better than the mod. A lot of it is server hopping military spawns. Also, in my opinion gun rarity and industrial loot is fine its the ammo and food that's waaaaaaay too common. Make stuff rarer? Sure, but hopefully not to 2017 levels of loot rarity. That was just annoying and it just further encourages server hopping.

What Was Your Favorite Part About The New Dev Blog?
gemellus replied to Deathlove's topic in General Discussion
The civilian airport and how excited they were for the new melee implementation. -
My new favorite is: Camo baseball cap Brown wool coat Brown hunter pants brown or black boots black working gloves leather sack Mosin with LRS

End game shouldn't be something defined. Is end game PvP in Novo for you? Go ahead. Is end game sustainable homesteading in an abandoned house in the woods for you? Go ahead. Is end game fixing up a helicopter/plane and flying out of Chernarus for you? Go ahead.
-
As long as this is something available for mods (as in its possible to implement), I'm happy.

If you've been following the devs on Twitter, you might know that the devs are currently incorporating wild plants that can be used by us, such as golden rod: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldenrod So, I decided to take a look at a bunch of plants that fit into DayZ: Gooseberries http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gooseberry Tasty berries that can be dried, canned, or turned into a syrup. Found throughout Eurasia, and according to wikipedia, its very common in villages in the Czech Republic. Foxtail Grass http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxtail_(diaspore) Common throughout eastern Europe; produces wheat-like seeds that are edible Beech Nuts http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beech Not only does beechwood make excellent firewood and leaves a tasty smoky flavor to meats, the fatty nuts coming from this centeral and northern european tree can be eaten Chaga Mushroom http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inonotus_obliquus This ugly black fungus has been used in eastern European traditional medicine for hundreds of years. Found on birch trees, it is used as an anti-inflammatory, cancer treatment, and immunotherapy. Chamomile http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Chamomile Common alongside Eurasian roads and landfills, Chamomile has many uses, such as anti-bacterial, upset stomachs, and anti-inflammation Sunflowers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower Although originating in North America, sunflowers became very popular in Russia in the 18 century due to being Lent-friendly. Not only are the seeds tasty and the oil can be used for human consumption, but it can also be turned into a biofuel. Sunflowers are already in the game, but the model is from ARMA II and is kinda outdated,

What new Rifles would you guys like to see?
gemellus replied to Forrelist's topic in General Discussion
G3 FN FAL AK-74M KAR 98k VEPR OTs-14 Groza (rare tomahawk throwin' Spetz Natz spawns) G-36 L85 and Famas would be nice, but all the above are priorities. -
I lurve you. :beans: Will you be adding the PASGT too? Its the helmet the CDF actually uses, looks nicer than the ballistic helmet, and it would make me happy as a chernarussian clam. :D Edit: Wait a minute But wait. The military zombies use the same uniform they had in ARMA 2. If they are updating their look since ARMA 2 happened, they would have to redo the zombies.

Any of you guys wonder what time period dayz is in.

Have any of you guys found a helicopter crash in stable?
gemellus replied to trimpampano's topic in General Discussion
I found two last night. One at NWAF and one just south of NWAF -

This game is and always will be way too military focused by players
gemellus replied to billyangstadt's topic in General Discussion
Because only people in the army have access to AKs :rolleyes: -
More edible things in the wild to forage is certainly something I want to see. Mushrooms, dedicated berry bushes, nuts. I remember going to a state park when I was little and gorging on a wild blackberry bush near our cabin. Having this sort of stuff would bring back fond memories.

This game is and always will be way too military focused by players
gemellus replied to billyangstadt's topic in General Discussion
It's the knee jerk reaction to anything being "military = Cawd bros go back 2 xbawks" that pervades this forum. It's really tiresome and almost as bad as the people who freak out whenever something west of Poland is added into the game, as if there's this magical wall that keeps all guns out that aren't Slavshit (and I use this term endearingly) Look at the civilian protestors in Ukraine earlier this year and the current civil war. They look like they just came from NWAF: http://ts2.mm.bing.net/th?id=HN.607987259909801089&pid=15.1&P=0 http://i.imgur.com/A9wIWjQ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/EZA1BnE.jpg http://www.trbimg.com/img-5300e18f/turbine/la-fg-wn-ukraine-protesters-accept-amnesty-201-001/600 http://media.komonews.com/images/140301_a_Ukraine_Protest___2.jpg http://media.bakersfieldnow.com/images/140219_Ukraine_Protest_x_2.jpg http://media.bakersfieldnow.com/images/140219_Ukraine_Protest_x_4.jpg http://america.aljazeera.com/content/ajam/multimedia/photo-gallery/2013/12/photos-ukrainianpoliceclashwithprotesters/_jcr_content/slideShowImages/slide6/image.adapt.960.high.jpg http://i.imgur.com/mtTGZRz.jpg http://i.imgur.com/EaeGHnb.jpg You know why all these guys are decked out in so much military gear? Its because its better than civilian almost always. It can take more hits, it can survive the elements and environments far deadlier than DayZ. When SHTF, people don't dress like Mad Max extras. They don't wear awkward clumsy clothing. The smart ones pick gear thats going to help them survive: hunting and military gear. That's the realistic option for all you "but muh immershun iz ruined by so many cawd kiddies!" types. -
Create two seperate military loot tables
gemellus replied to stielhandgranate's topic in Suggestions
Yeah I'd also like to see at least 3 loot tables for military loot: civilian/Police (WW2 to 1980s surplus), CDF (see ARMA 2), and NATO (again, see ARMA 2). Maybe a 4th for modern Russian gear found in the far north for some smexy digital flora camoflage. -
I am going to have to say no. Makeshift armor reminds me of silly Mad Max stuff, not serious post-apocalyptic survival.
-
A small USMC base would make a lot more sense than Army. Doesn't even need to spawn unique gear; just have a few new tent models (for use in future maps), increase spawn of those tactical shirts, and plant an American flag as a nod to A2.
-
First off, it isn't Russia. It's Chernarus. Secondly: There was a USMC forward base of operations along the southern coast.

I would like it to be like Red Orchestra 2. Watch this video at 5:38: Ragdoll camera. A few seconds later, fade to black with white text "You are Dead"
