    Trek trolley

    I can dig it. I would like to add shopping carts,wheelbarrows, and dollys.
  2. So I guess this server went down. What a shame I only got to play one night and not one other first person only server ugh.

    Plans to keep DayZ pure?

    All you can really say is different strokes different folks. I'm sure the fears will come true I'm sure there will be 500+cars and spawn with M4 servers I personally can't wait for one reason those folks that do not want survival or the experience of vanilla can go play that garbage and leave the folks that play for survival alone to ourselves. right now you have a mixture of folks that came from epoch,origins,overpoch etc that want fast battles fast loot fixed cars when found and to be able to spawn near NWAF and you have them with the folks that want survival more so than a constant war game of rinse repeat. So the quicker we get mods the quicker we can be rid of I guess the proper words would be folks that do not have the time nor the patience to put in the time for vanilla. Not that vanilla is better than the others it's not I just want to be rid of folks that whine that the game is hard or takes to long etc give them easy mode and let's say goodbye.
  4. me and a friend spent a few hours last night love the server. My first time really giving first person a go and I have to say i like it alot. name in game is Ryang

    Double Carry Primary weapons

    I've heard this before wanting to carry 2 primaries. I'm all for someone loading themselves with guns, but there needs to be stamina involved and weight needs to be related to that mechanic much like the long dark. In the long dark it makes you use more calories slows you a little as well so you're drinking more and eating more as a result of carrying everything. I think it could be balanced you carry everything but the kitchen sink you're gonna use more fuel and be a little slower be it guns,food,tools etc.

    Restore trust in DayZ

    I've only gotten PVE style of play on RP servers or PVE whitelisted servers. If you're on public it's PVP that is if you want to live for any real length of time. Other than PVP there really isn't much to do, you can loot and get all the fancy gear then what. Or you could make a camp full of goodies then what? Get a car drive around talk to folks but most do not care because they have all the same shit as you do so no need to trade or work together PVE wise because zeds aren't in high numbers nor a threat at all. There isn't any predator like animals such as bears or wolves yet. and the world itself isn't harsh enough to kill with cold/heat or disease. things IMO might change one day at least I hope so I would like to see the games survival be like the long dark but even then to most PVP will come first that's just the way it is that's where you get the adrenaline pumping the most and that adrenaline is what makes dayz the best to me atleast. We just have to wait and that's all there is to it.
  7. you can't just shoot folks but if you or the other survivor would want to initiate you would first hold them up. raise weapon and give commands like put hands up or put weapons on the ground. Now if they do not listen let's say your telling them to put there hands up and you say i'm gonna count to ten and you get to ten and they haven't you can blast them. With that thought is the admins ask that you are reasonable with time limits and orders. Like you can count to ten so fast that they can't do the animations or orders asked in the time given. If you take a weapon out by mistake or raise the weapon you just explain to them the situation like oh my bad or something of that nature. when I play I always have a weapon ready as do most put if the raise the weapon then you're getting into initiation. Now the active battle scenario is tricky, common sense would say You could just attack whomever you see as a threat or what group you want to help. If you were in either of these groups you would gain kill rights on the other group members as you see the attack and you group is actively engaged. Now as an outsider They shouldn't and you shouldn't just attack you would have to go into the fray and either initiate on them through words or actions they cannot KOS you and you can't them. There have been folks discussing this rule and I could be wrong in my explanation. IF your interested go to there website they can answer all of your questions better than me and give many scenarios. I usually lone wolf myself and haven't done a lot of banditing or fighting I would advise asking some of the cats on there that do it all the time. there isn't KOS on that server but it can be action packed or peaceful just depends on how you treat folks or how they treat you and how your toon would react to certain situations. I would say it's about as close to walking dead type of atmosphere as you can get with encounters, you got folks like terminus, you got folks like negan, and you got folks like rick and his crew and anything in between. I hope this helped
  8. dayzrp is good if you want what you stated. KOS on there is almost non existent though you can gain kill rights under certain circumstances. Only gripe I have about their community is some of the members can be rather pretentious but that's with any gaming community. It's mainly group oriented with large groups running the show and I imagine that to as well be an authentic scenario as well. Most of the action/player interaction happens in what they call the triangle which is zen,NWAF vybor region. I haven't been robbed myself as I do not wear mil-spec stuff or carry mil weapons and if you do you should be prepared to get robbed a lot. Some groups like to do torture I don't care for that I can't see myself RP'n in that scenario so I avoid it if i can. there are folks on there that just want to PVP and regardless of what some of them might say there is a lot of rule play as most folks you run into will try and bait you into conflicts it's easy to get out of those situations though if that's not your thing. there application process can be rather long it took me a few days to get in which is not problem as I can see they are trying to get folks that want to RP. One thing I like about the server is there is no protection of camps and no safe zones. check it out it might be what you are looking for there are a lot of different kinds of folks from action oriented to peaceful wanderers.

    Excellent article by Eurogamer - Must read

    They need to get the zeds working, when I say working I mean spawning in large numbers all over the map like in the mod days. They need to make sure the dynamic spawning of infected works with the next update. Myself and most of my friends are waiting for that before we really come back. I like the game but it gets boring there isn't any danger, humans can be avoided and if you hunt them it becomes a routine to go to the same 3-4 places and even then a battle lasts a few min to a few seconds it's not time efficient to do that IMO. We need some form of constant danger, humans will always be the main threat of course but we also need a good threat in between human encounters be that animals or zeds. I'm being patient I know they doing there best but I feel zeds should have always been a priority since it is the main lore of the game and the reason for us to be doing what we do in game. sry if it's off topic but I think if they can get those zeds to function like they should the game would be better for it a lot sooner than later.

    When this game is finished, I dare modders to do...

    I just want zeds everywhere even in the woods. I want them attacking any place where there is a lot of noise as well. I also would like to see a lack of food and ammo and guns in general. more or less a more survival based game mode with more stealth in mind. As I see it dayz will go the way of the mod I know it's been stated all the time but there will be easy mode servers where there's 500+ cars with trade zones and you'll start kitted with an m4 as well as easy base building and easy vehicle maintenance/repair. The game to me is going to be nothing but a free for all deathmatch for those without patience or love of survival. I just hope there is if anything a community and a game mode for those that want something more hardcore if that's the proper term for it. As it is now the game isn't hard it's easy to survive and the only threat is humans which to me is boring as hell. i know the game is nowhere near finished but the amount of loot being food guns ammo clothing makes it to easy and very predictable.
  11. Me too I just want zeds period I do not play much right now for that very reason I want to sneak through towns infested with them I want everywhere I go to be hell.
  12. The road,28 days/week later but those I imagine are a given and like a cat said above groundhog day now if we could only get a clock radio to play when we respawn.

    "Bumblebee" PLANE: Specs & Discussion

    Man the dev team never cease to amaze me with the items etc they add to the game. I love the look of the plane and the detail of the cockpit. I already want to mess with the switches and buttons lol. the curiosity will probably be my death in that plane that is if i ever get one running I imagine them requiring a lot of work to keep in working condition.

    Basebuilding Watchtowers preview added to Trello

    I wonder if it will be like the game wurm maybe not as hardcore but it would be nice if it isn't as easy as the epoch mod. And as an above poster stated I imagine one would get shot all to hell. I imagine the winchester will make short work of the poor bastard that's the lookout. Hopefully we can upgrade it with steel plates or something more bullet resistant. And as for molotovs I imagine when the RPG gets added the scene from walking dead comes to mind where martinez hits the watchtower with the grenade launcher except a rocket in our case who knows maybe the nade launcher will come as well.
  15. same i haven't dies to stairs or ladders since back in the first months's, doesn't mean it doesn't happen i usually play on servers with below 100 ping. Not sure if that means shit probably not. I to wonder why it persists for some folks I'm sure like others say its dsync of some sort but why for some and not for others.

    Infected Suggestions

    There aren't enough beans in my pack to give.

    Infected Suggestions

    I could see maybe a knife or melee weapon as it is i guess a rage virus, but guns I don't see a adrenaline fueled person with part of there brain fried being able to understand the concept of a gun I think just them throwing it in anger is to much critical thinking for these zeds. I always thought of them more as rabid humans only thing left of the brain are primal urges and thought they would have heightened senses Always hunting looking to destroy something alive. i think it was land of the dead that a zombie/zombies that were smarter and used guns I thought that was cheesy as hell. All the other suggestions would be nice.

    Barefoot = Quite

    But humans can be sneaky or quite without taking off there shoes Is everyone commenting walk around like bulls in china shops stomping feet like a hoof of a horse lol there's no need for them to go to these extreme levels to add stealth yes shoes i guess could contribute a little but one can be sneaky in combat boots if not hell why would they teach it in the military, They would just say well because of those boots fellas don't bother creeping through the bush just run stomp shit you know boots= enough noise to be noticed all the time. That's just ridiculous.
  19. gannon46

    Barefoot = Quite

    You can still wear shoes put the socks over your shoes makes you very very quite, also you can be quite or sneaky wearing boots if you know how to move not saying i'm a ninja but I can be a sneaky son of bitch in RL as can most humans hell we are hunter/gatherers by nature so we shouldn't need to wear different shoes it should have to do with stance and speed of movement mixed with the surface your on like gravel ,hard to sneak on gravel and metal that should come into play as well, you ever ran barefoot through gravel hehehehe its not fun.

    Enough with the guns already....

    Actually those items are to combat the heli i assume and vehicles and hell getting into bases/camps when thats added. And if they add that fucking heli from the mod the UH1Y i think it was you'll be glad you have a 240 and a law rocket, I know i will.

    Make the infected afraid of fire

    I am legend the monster were vampires or at least in the book which was the good one the movie was complete utter shit. And i agree with you 28 series points this game would benefit greatly from following a lot of there zed lore, though i don't imagine folks would like that very much as the game would actually get difficult.
  22. gannon46

    Make the infected afraid of fire

    If the virus that makes them infected was based on rabies they would be scared of water, though they should foam at the mouth some more but maybe the virus has been tampered with to do away with that symptom though thats how the virus spreads hence why rabid dogs bite to spread the virus.

    Metal box/safe for civil guns and ammo

    At some point they are supposed to add stamina. I think that is going to affect the game a lot especially double carrying heavy guns with a pack with 100 pounds of ammo plus food, pistol, mags, etc. And i also ASSUME that when the soft skills get added that you can improve your carrying weight or at least the amount of stamina you have I know for a fact it will affect sprint as hicks has said it in a talk. And as for safes and such i'm all for that as long as it has a way in like cutting torch or explosives or even a safe cracking kit maybe it could involve reading a book to get the required skill to use the safe cracker set. If not wait for modding I'm sure something of that nature will be added. And nothing will lower KOS except maybe more things to do and even then some folks just find killing fun and who are we to hate on there fun.
