Thanks Ensign.. Ill stop by soon :)

I'd like to see a mod that gives me a reason to play once I have all the tools I need to survive. I know most people hated them.. but the NPC outposts were always fun to attack and raid in the various older dayz mods. Im not asking for that per say.. but some idea, where I have an "entertaining" thing to do, on a regular basis other than survive and pvp. On that note, I love some of the ideas that have been brought up so far in this section. Great post OP.

My honest opinion (from yesterday, first time playing in almost a year): Game was smoother, frame rates are better. It looks just as good as it did (if you played when they added in fog) 8-9 months ago, with some improvements in places visually. There were some weird dots everywhere on the ground at times.. this was the only visual/performance issue I had. Besides a crash.. had one of those (6 hours play time). Infected are more prevalent. They arent a real threat if your armed in any way, but they are more fun now. They still have minor issues, from what I noticed.. but its close. Loot seemed fairly well placed. Food was damned near non existent, so be prepared to hunt every chicken you hear clucking. Ammo is scarce too, but not too badly. Just about right, if you ask me.. then again, I strayed away from almost all military areas. Found 1 heli crash.. it contained a "fair" amount of gear/loot. There are new areas, and changed areas all over it seemed. Some small changes.. some of the coast ones were big. All in all I had a blast. It took me over 5 hours to get what I call "geared up"*. I killed many infected along the path, but saw not one player. *"Gear up" denotes player possessing a large back pack, large pocketed clothing, a hunting rifle with a scope and small amount of ammo for it. A pistol for protection, with some ammo. And the bare essential tools needed to survive. Im gonna play again today..

I haven't played dayz in quite a while. I remember I always seemed to have problems with the bino's and hand held scops not working at all. I cant recall what I did to fix it, but now I am in the same boat only this time I cant get to a first person style of view on any firearm. This means I cant use scopes and I cant even use iron sights. For some reason "right click" does nothing. I checked my settings and it seems right, but nothing works. Any help with this?

That way all of those tasty crafting items are available.. also meat. And when we kill hoards of zeds inside a house, we can chop them up to get those pesky dead bodies out of our way. We could poison fellow cannibals on April fools day with tainted zed meat. Apply guts to face and hands to allow you to "walk among the infected" without being detected.. and other fun things.

Wait a minute..... Brother? Is that you? o.O

This is why I love Gews.

Exactly.. :)

Hey Elle, how you been? :) Ive been trying to catch a damned lightning bolt for weeks now.. lol. And yes, at night.. they are a bit scary. Wish this was a night clip, would look much better.

When you gotta kill every last mother*$#@!& alive... UMP-45

How long....? ...think John Holmes.

We have a stamina system of sorts with them currently.. they slow down after a certain distance/time. They do already have that little stamina esque system in place where they slow down after a bit of chasing you... but I agree with you on the weight issue.. they should really blow past you if your laden down with gear once that weight system is put in place they talked about. Also.. just remembered the fact that at some point here soon they will slow the player movement down on sprinting like they said.. so maybe then we will by default get "faster" infected?

Eventually we are going to need a class of infected that are actually faster than players.. a rare class of them, perhaps used to populate military areas? Something needs to be done about just running away from every infected you see.. there should at least be one every now and then that out runs YOU.

Someone please mod this into something.. anything.

I'm thinking if it happens, someone out there should be able to mod me one of these, right? Ill take mine with the rainbow-flatulence feature as well.. thanks !

Yeah, but we wont get more new stuff before a new iteration.

NO.

Reminds me of the version of the bible (King James Version - Book 18: Job) that made your backpack disappear. That shit was hilarious

I dont know what happened here.. I blame the school system.

While true.. since some silly Russians got a hold of the files, I presume they are putting it on the forefront of what needs to happen soon. Funny thing is, literally days after those files got into the wrong hands several people at BIS suddenly talked about server files going into the hands of modders soon. I wish I had the time to throw you a link or two.. but Im too busy right now
