But they are - you take one zip and it's empty - ONE USE. They are not consumables ( the word I'm sure you are thinking of ). Lets return to a timeframe aspect - To cook water you need either to be lucky enough to spawn near / make it to one of the towns that has fire barrels (I've only seen them in Cherno/Elektro so far). Or be lucky enough to find both matches and a hatchet on your first "bottle". (Or stick to canned fluids - which could be as old as years old depending on the lore)

No - the engine can handle persistent characters as it is just fine. Punishing people for being logged out outside of their control is just plain retarded.

Here's a thought - did you try turning the sounds up and down in the DayZ options?

Die - then stop using items that change your skin until patchnotes say you can actually use them again.

The simple fact that water bottles are one use (at the moment at least) and that fireplaces are not easy to come by. You'd have more trouble finding water than fighting off the first few zombies when you spawn. But I am repeating myself now... :s

As I recall you were the one to turn this into a personal attack - So if anything I'd advise you to go attempt insulting people somewhere else while we discuss this suggestion like proper adults.

You're clearly both inept at reading and of basic understanding - I did in fact provide an alternative to the paddles if you'd bother to actually read instead of glancing and going into full "pants on head retarted retort" mode. I'm sorry if I insulted your intelligence - I wasn't aware there was any around to offend. (This is me going pants on head retarted retort if you were wondering)

Rocket needs to add this guy as a voice actor for a zombie. Imagine having a zombie run towards you screaming NONONONONONONONO.

Hahaha xD

You DO know that shock paddles don't help in the slightest if your heart has stopped beating - this is a disturbingly wrong misconception common in Hollywood - one that kills people every day because of misinformation. Shock Paddles only serve to stabilize a heart that isn't beating at a regular pace - if you want to kickstart a heart you have to do it the old fashion way by applying pressure with your hands in strokes and breathing air into the person.

Have you tried another server, Cinas? If the server you are playing on hasn't been restarted in a few hours it will actually make your game slower. You should be running DayZ with the same speed as OA since they are as far as I'm aware the exact same game - just with different "rules".

A valid argument - if any precedents had indeed been made. Try again.

Not but you basically implied it - fireplaces aren't exactly easy to come by in the "lifespan" of your first water bottle dose. You'd have people dying from thirst more often than actual zombie/player related issues.

You see - here's the beauty of it. There are rules - written ones. They are the guidelines admins have to adhere by. If it ain't written there, it ain't a rule. All that Rocket said is that he doesn't want it, and it will be implemented at a later time - that does not equal "Ban dem disconnecters" - especially so since you cannot prove combat loggers or disprove them. Corruption everywhere.

Getting a stomach bug and diarrhea is the least of your concerns with the walking dead everywhere - considering how there is litterally no guaranteed clean sources of water anywhere in Chernarus, I don't see how this adds to the game aside from another level of "work" to get something simple. Longterm? (Arma 3 engine, that timeframe) Perhaps.

So you have no proof - I thought as much. :dodgy:

[Citation Needed] I'm not kidding - fetch some proof of that claim. Cause I sure as heck cannot find it anywhere.

I have to agree - the knockdown mechanic seems overly random "fuck you" esque. I got knocked down once in a barn and had to sit for... a whole minute? just staring at the hourglass slowly ticking away while I'm being eaten. That isn't a knockdown, that is going unconscious. I'd rather knockdown happened more often but would only last for a few seconds.

I for one am not entirely thrilled having my side chat on a Danish server consisting of pure cyrillic characters. :dodgy: Or any other language than the host country language and english. That's so hard to just ignore global chat/cyrillic letters' date=' right! [/quote'] Your sarcasm has been noted - and promptly ignored. The issue only grows worse once we get local chat (as humorous as it may be to be the only english speaking person on an english server in a hostile zombie wasteland)
