Re-posting this from a similar thread: Besides animals we need a Realistic Hunting System!

You just said losing arms and shit, Just made me think of Fo3. X D

Yes, There needs to be some sort of ecosystem and hunting mechanics. Lets face it if the Zed Apocalypse happens, we are going to hunt animals to survive. Current animals will not move or react to human movement or even gunshots. It would add a lot to the survival aspect of the game to have to hunt efficiently to survive. With a scent, mechanic being implemented for tracking already. This can be applied to hunting as well. There can be different ways to hunt as well. Bait - laying some bait for animals to draw them in to an area. Shoot maybe we can use those deer stands as deer stands X D. Stalking - Stalking would be a challenge, you get too close you startle your prey, hope you are a quick good shot! Trapping - We have bear traps lets, use them for bears! This is very basic and plan on elaborating on this. But I feel it should be a standard feature as current survival hunting involves running at animals that don't move with a hatchet or a crowbar.

There is a reason for them seeming protective. THEY ARE BEING PROTECTIVE! They are at a point in dev, where they don't want to show a feature that is not ready and put off customers . That is why they said in the blog update the inventory system might be ready for next update. You will have people streaming the game when the game is ready to be streamed. Geez some people need the world and the moon to be satisfied.

Buy IT! Its 20 bux for the best gaming experience I've had in a long time. The DayZ standalone, is coming out this year I bet. But I don't think I't will be here till fall, winter. ( I don't want it any sooner, rocket better not rush this puppy and it dose not look like he is.) So if you are low cash you can Download Arma 2 Free edition and buy operation arrowhead for 19.99 on steam, mabey cheaper if you search for a CD Key Site, and you can play with that. You could also get Arma 2: Combined Operations, for 24.99 on steam I think, and have better textures. (Arma 2 Free has low quality textures) OR, You could buy Arma 2: Complete Collection for 39.99 this comes with all the expansions, for DayZ this will increase the texture quality on the player models. ARMA 2 it self is a fantastic game, and there are other great mods available as well. Wasteland is one of them, if you just got the DayZ standalone, you would miss out on these mods as well.

I would rather have to poop. Then would need TP to wipe or you run weird like you have something up your ass.

Don't GIVE UP!!!!!!!! Consoles are Inferior. Fact.

Auto HOOVER ?? What are we flying vacuums now. X D LoL nice one though

I really do not like the new consumable item names, they shatter the immersion of the game. This game is one that relies on the immersion created for the game to be fun. This patch is really good don't get me wrong and I love the addition of a variety of consumables but can we please rename these items. It just kinda stupid, If I wanted to see this I'd go buy WarZ.

Some Updates to OP. Things are coming together, we will have this running by the end of the week. Please shoot me a PM if you are interested in participating. We need some clan groups, individuals who are going with a faction or lone wolf. Clans will be forced to join a faction and cooperate with other faction members work together to take out the other faction. WE NEED SOME GOOD DEDICATED BANDITS. I mean the old school bandits that would hold you up a gun point and rob you, not just a KoS CoD bandit.

I agree Ill have to look at Rmod more closely, I thought i was more for vehicles, I don't think we will have standalone till Late Summer, Early Fall. and I really don't care, DayZMod is still good and with all the community mods it never gets old. I really want rocket to take his time. Every time the Nerd community bitches about something taking to long, we allways get it early and its a piece of shit. We don't want another Vista experience.

Applied! Check my sig for a thread on my private Role Play server that is getting set up. LMK if you guys want to join.

There will still be just plain bandits, Infact I really want a few to be a part of this. As for my self and my small group we plan on playing in the lone wolf faction and role play random things. ( traders, random raiders, ect.). The current DayZ environmental feel should not change, just add clans working together against other clans for objectives, rather than pvp in electro, cherno, or NW strip. I hope the pvp will increase to be honest, but in a structured way that creates a unique experience with out removing the sandbox game play of dayz. There will be very few rules, and they will be common sense, all other rules can be made in game by the factions if they choose. I feel that Rocket provided us a sandbox environment so that as a community we can make it what ever we want and really do something amazing as far as a video game experience. Ill update first post tomorrow at some point with some more details.

I like the sound of this you run the eu side and my guys will run the US. I'm on the east coast so eu servers are not bad for me. I'm going to be discussing the mechanics and such of adding missions this friday with some friends from school we like to meet and nerd out on game design. Before I switched degrees to Networking, I used to go for level and game design. This is kinda my way back in to a creative venture. I am terrible with websites and html phpbb and such so any help there would be awesome.

That was actually the hosting company I was going to use, and I have experimented with a local hosted server I set up and used the Control center as well. : D. What location is your server located?

I've played a lot of wasteland with this clan, they are a good group of guys.
