i can dig it.

dean mentioned the faction spawns at rezzed if you watch the roadmap part.

i love the crossbow but am having an issue finding bolts i found one in a tavern(got a feeling of the old days of the mod when i did lol).was wondering if they spawn in farm areas and residential trying to not ever go another military base again for gear. thanks for any info in advance.

so i was watching the walking dead(yeah i know a lot of suggestions based on the show)and they got stopped by bandits. rick had a gun to his head and headbutted the assailant then ended up biting the man in the throat killing him. i thought to myself we need that in SA. i would like to see more abilities added to our arsenal for when you get held up.or for the bandit that just wants to be sadistic either way would add some intensity to player interactions. what do you think is it to extreme or a waste of time for the devs or is it right up our alley. i personally think little touches like these will set this game apart from other zed games.

i got one bolt right now and havn't shot it yet not sure.

i don't want it to be easy i was thinkin more for folks that are hangin out then get ambushed by some bandits with the gun put away. i personally would like to see knockouts gone except by bullets or maybe falling. punches headbutts should make sound go away and make vivion blurry for a few maybe white screen or something just a stun giving enough time to rip his throat out with your teeth or get the gun out and bust'em in the face.

nice work man lucky or not that's was a good battle to watch you got good reaction speed i wish you many more hours of life and take these well deserved beans.

and heli's have been confirmed. i hope they don't have guns on them but I'm sure they will. in that case they need to add an unguided rocket launcher such as a RPG or make the improvised explosive able to be duct taped to cars/vehicles. because i will hunt choppers down and plant bombs on them and blow them to shit. i loved running from them but did tired of clans usually being the main force on a server and usually had most of the good vehicles and heli's.so i need a way to attack them with guerilla tactics so i can slowly cause them trouble with out them knowing or thinking its just one man. booby traps to like burying a shot gun shell on top of a nail step on it and no more leg.i got off topic sorry

its not going to be like state of decay or GTA vehicles are gonna be hard to fix and put together I'm sure. and i hope they add some collision mechanics to the models cars should not be a killing machine if you hit a man in a car he's going to destroy your car and probably come through the windshield and kill you or at least ruin ur day. now if your in a semi-truck its a different story. i think they'll do it right i personally can't wait to hear about ambushes on people driving in cars stopping at a cross roads to get denzel'd by 4 AK's. it'll give folks more to do sir as well as base building it just adds another layer of activities. hell i could care less about having a car what i want is a tent and hunting and i'll be happy with the game everything else to me will be extra fun.

sweet thanks fellas. i'll get on the hunt.good luck everyone.

that's what I've been playin on is the 100 hundred man its nice but the damn ambient sounds will drive you crazy, you can hear footsteps of other players see chats and sodas/zeds/reloading. and theres no one around get annoying but still fun. its like my character is crazy well that's my reasoning for it.

eventually i guess we will get faction or clan spawns so i guess theres that. i personally don't like the idea of giving these clans that much power. you know they are all gonna set there spawns to the airfields so that's gonna be some BS so why not let everyone just choose there spawn location. they could do it like origins did i thought that worked well.

i got stuck in some rocks in a pond near the new town west of guba. i had to sprint and keep hitting jump/vault and eventually i got unstuck. not sure with a broken leg. good luck man.

i agree with you OP. i think that's why half the loot spawns were turned off. i love the ones that work again in the houses makes small towns useful again. wish more bolts would spawn i have found only one.

whats funny is your toon has malnutrition at the start and yet has the punch of Tyson in the 80's its stupid and to knock a guiy out wearing a motorcycle helmet is even dumber I mean really you can with stand a crash and not get your head split or knocked out but yet a sickly toon can totally dumb. I know the reason they did it was to give a way for unarmed players to fight back but as in above posts all it leads to is them getting KOS'd so really it did the opposite. I stay away from fresh spawns unless its a friend or I shoot them they move fast and don't care to die. but then again I don't hang around the coast at all once I spawn I don't come back to spawn areas for anything ever.

for one if night was actually decent maybe folks wouldn't do it. I've been in the woods with no flashlight in real life and can see pretty good once eyes get adjusted. just like in a building unless there are no windows or doors open you can see pretty good so until they fix the night time leave it alone. and there are other pressing matters to fix and that list is long. I shouldn't be forced to use a flashlight who in there right mind would turn a damn light on in a town full of killers and zeds its stupid. flash lights are a beacon saying here I am shoot me and are useless for survival.

silence is golden

rather than kill I've chose to avoid/hide i can usually get any gear i want and am usually out gunning them though of course sometimes not. i use stealth to just avoid the whole dance of the KOS/friendly. I've played as a hero I've been the worst kind of bandit as well as a gentleman bandit I've ran in large 10 man groups and it was a nightmare no comm discipline and not to mention every damn survivor wants to have a large kill count like that so they all shoot at you.and if your alone they think your easy pickens. it not i don't like the fight i love it but it always feels forced and cheap once the adrenaline wears off and it does its called boredom.i decided to try and not kill but to just become the environment that's how i play now.i would like to see other playstyles evolve/form except the whole crazy killer bandit or the hero. you can still interact with people and you get one hell of a show sometimes. i once watche a 3 vs 4 battle it was amazing one guy survived i creeped up to him and communicated he stated he would kill me etc blah blah i told him i watched the whole battle go down and wanted to say nice work was an epic battle he offered me some of the loot i passed sensing a trap and went back into the woods.sry for the long post.just wanted to hopefully inspire folks to play different ways and tell there stories.

then you wait for him to go to his truck and bash his head in with a tire iron or if you live where I live you don't pull that shit because we all pack heat.hey dayz is like real life.good point sir

hahahaha I did too.. but its a genocide simulator get a group of friends and roam the lands of a foreign country and murder everyone without motive or provocation.

do what I did and just kill everyone. I'm not happy about it and I feel forced to do it. but if you don't some one else will kill you. and a server that states no KOS is probably gonna have more than any other server. I remember cats posting on here that they go to those server to just ruin folks good time. until private hives come and admins have control just murder every single dayz player you see. I used to play i'll treat others as I would like to be treated or maybe if I'm friendly they'll be friendly to the next guy hahahah bullshit I tell you, I was delusional at best. I've become cold and bitter with the player base and murder is my answer may not be the best but it gets me through my dayz. goodluck OP hopefully you find a good server and can play the way you want without becoming a heartless prick like all the rest.

just wait till rain, wind and the cold affect ballistics OP. not sure how far off it is but its going to make it a lot harder.

uhhh add more survival elements and fix zeds don't care about spawns screw the deathmatchers they'll learn or die

where di you find quiver what kind of building indy.res,or farm?

what if I hit a man in the liver with a crossbow I'm sure he would die. if I hit a man in any important organ he should die regardless if its a 556 or a bolt/arrow. I agree they should make it more realistic then you will never hear death creeping up on you......hence the crossbow/bow
