Hey!, Really well done!. I use alot of After Effects and other editing programs.. I have always wanted to make dayz vids with a bit of a story but have never really got around to it trying it + for the most part you need freinds to help be the characters. How long did this take you to make ? Do you use the editor much ??

Yep, cant wait till my freinds start playing and I can have an actual "crew". They are not real big on the whole alpha thing and are waiting for the game to get better. I've pretty much put 300 hrs into the standalone as the lone wolf. I have an mp5 with a silencer at the moment and only 4 rnds left + magnum pistol :D -

As much as I like this idea I think the bandits are the ones that would be doing most of the leashing players :D -
I just found one in a small town on hell in a hand basket server :\

HAHAA ..............exactly.. I havent died in such a way in such long time that has required me to strive to know what happen.. not since the mod way back when I think.. tho i can sympathize a tad with this idea I dont think it belongs :D
-
I think its safe to say we all want BEARDS as much as we want a rifle with 400 rounds.. I'm all for beards and I would say physical marks of pain like black eyes, cuts and bruises etc more so than anything else.. but the fitness idea is something I have always pondered about since the mod dayz and I think is a super interesting avenue but there is alot of other stuff I think would prioritize over something like that considering how much of a pain in the arse it would be to implement
-
I would say we will be able to do it one day just probably not anytime soon.. It is a pretty logical idea at the end of the day
-
Dont worry i can assure you we will have boots to store stuffs one day.. jus need that patience B)

It would be pretty sadistic but cool where you get to the point where you have to force the idea upon yourself of having to eat your trusty steed as you are almost starved to death but you dont want to kill your best freind and then you kill the trusty steed and you cry in real life cause dayz is off the chain with poken at your feels bro

So much Yep to this comment ^^^ It's pretty much the only way.. its just a shame so many pussies are to scared to talk through their mic.. I always make the first attempt to chat to people and usually they always talk back and everything works out fine.. -

Exactly.. word of mouth among players on the server.. Thats whats so good about private hives.. you can run into the same players and exchange info on anything thats recently happened -

Restricted ? Its not restricted... A karma/information system is more restricting... This topic has been brought up so many damn times and its always received badly. People dont wont this information/karma idea... I have 300 hrs in the standalone(400 hrs in mod) and personally I dont get KOS much due to avoiding everyone and being super careful... More people need to play in a group also... as much as KOS sucks ideas like this idea SUCK EVEN MORE Seriously, I am a firm believer that it just cant be restricted like this.. No offence, but with your 5 posts I'm guessing you may still have alot to learn about this game.. Your player info system is already in place.. I use it... its called "word of mouth" among players. A huge thing that works for me is always saying something through my mic first like when you see someone "HEY, HEY PEACE, IM FRIENDLY" I'm usually always the one to make first vocal contact and people are generally always friendly, I have noticed not many people I encounter make first vocal contact because they are probably shit scared, therefore most idiots shoot first. However, I play on a Private hive you see.. private hives seem to have waaaaay less dickheads on them.. Unless you can see into the future I think we should wait and see..but when the zombies are actually a situation.. the way people play will change somewhat. The thing is stray cat..I dont want to sound pompous but I have been gaming for about 25 years now.. Everything I play is the same everywhere all the time.. except for dayz.. its different, its hard, its rewarding and its a pain in the arse. I totally see where you are coming from with your idea but at the end of the day these 1000's of game restricting ideas like this one posted on the forums here need to be left out of dayz.. Its only 1 game out of 10,000's of others so lets not nerf it and how about you check out H1Z1 ?? :P -
I like what you said at the start of this video.. exactly right.. the game has become so popular beyond the niche market and most players are saying to themselves "WTF M8" cant handle it! .. and its nice to see that the game is farking finally heading in the direction we want it too aswell Also what video recording app do you use ?

LET US know how you go maaan, what was the item ? ..was it a hot pink dress ...LOL

I'm excited too see locked doors expanded upon.. later down the track I would love to see the chance of a surprise behind random locked doors in houses..as in a system to entice someone to try to open locked doors, nothing to great just the chance of something along the lines of a survivor starter kit.. water bottle, bandage and matches.. while other times getting through locked doors can prove to be fruitless.. HOWEVER.. if the devs choose to make it is as easy to get through locked doors like the op suggests in the long run(of game development).. eg having an axe will pretty much guarantee a way in..well then the sound should attract zombies, almost like gun shots.. If I would have to guess.. I would say the introductory level of this(locked doors) will begin with doors having a damage rating and the instruments(axe,sledge,crow) damage rating should be higher than that of the door to make a severe impact on the door etc

I think with some more time stray cat you may learn why alot of people will not like this idea because it goes against the idea of what dayz is about. Indeed we all know its hard and you get f*cked on alot by other players but I can assure you about 80% of the community wouldn't want this idea due to its "restrictive" nature.. There is a strong ethic among the community about not being punished for your play style.. I agree with this also and the less information we are told by the game the more emphasis there is for the enrichment of player experience via environment. When the game becomes alot harder with more zombies, sickness etc hopefully, I think players will be more inclined to work together. We will see. Untill I will still avoid people always Other than that most of this is done by the players word of mouth in respect to what you mention Also at the end of the day dayz isnt like the rest and we would prefer it to stay that way :D -
But why ? its been done with stalker .. creating an entire map from scratch would halt the games development pace even further. Maybe something for a mod but even then we have all been there before :D We have all also been to chernarus before but atleast the map is getting an overhaul
-
I kind of agree with this but then think it would be a pretty drastic move.. but it would stop alot of bullshittery and cause some more at the same time

Lighting Fires in Fireplaces inside homes.
liquidcactus replied to DURRHUNTER's topic in Suggestions
Well who knows, I mean that may well be true and I dont know alot about game design either but i still think it falls into "something to worry about" that can coincide with barricading tho i would still love to see it sooner and a particle emitter on the already chimneys for the smoke effect B) -

liquidcactus replied to DURRHUNTER's topic in Suggestions
Most of these ideas will come about later down the track no doubt.. maybe they are waiting for house barricading before they even think about making working fireplaces.. and if I am guessing right it is a long ways off -
hmmm... seems a bit too convenient
