As the problem is more with reducing the people just jumping onto low pop servers to loot farm could they not just implement a % of players figure and anything under 50% full only shows up as 50%

A game dev only role is to make a game that people will play the more people playing and for longer the better they have done their job do you really think they will ever implement a feature that forces players not to play? NO so stop asking for it. On top of this it’s a bad feature -That will do nothing to promote player interactions. And only seek to increase the rampant KOS why would you rob someone when you can shoot them and have them locked out for any amount of time allowing you to loot in even more safety. -Servers would become empty and never build a core following and a lot would probably close down what’s the point of hanging out on a server if when you die your out of there could you imagine what would happen when you kill an admin and he gets locked from his own server. -What happens when the game is no longer popular and there is not 1000’s of servers to pick from. -hacker would have a field day knowing everyone they kill is gone worst case they could almost hold admins to ransom “do what we say or we empty your server”

Any game that stops players from playing will inevitably fail. Want to reduce people looting their own body - Get rid of the wake up on beach story and Spread the starting spawn throughout the map - Add an item degradation timer on dead bodies eg: after 30 minutes items start to rapidly degrade - Place a timer that locks a player to a spawn location eg: die within X time to NPC/your own fault you spawn back at the same spot. This could possibly have a limit 3-5 deaths before you get cycled if you die because of another player you get cycled.

Would be a good idea personally I think backpacks need to be smaller 25 slots max so allowing a number of different shape backpacks means you can have more variety of the same size pack. It would also be nice to see backpack slots broken up into pockets and not one big pool Eg: the Hunter back pack would have a 4x3 slot main area with a 2x2 pocket on the front and two 1x2 on the sides

I don’t have a problem with a log out and log in timer but having said timer leaving me open for attach with no way of countering is a bit much. As noted above a 30 second timer needs to start when you make your player sit once this timer has ended you can log out and your body disappears. one quick question what happens to your body if you log on to a sever before the 30 second timer has runs out?

Thanks for that just thought I would ask they moved like the wind in the mod but this smug little bugger moved like a meter then just sat there looking at me

How long till i can hunt these little suckers and have the sweet taste of flesh in my mouth once again?

As had been mentioned above way to much food For me the new UI system looks good loving the new inventory layout but I can seem to right click and select drop any more. With the lack of large bags around would be good to keep the 2 primary bug and fix it so it does not eat your hatchet. Not really a fan of the new S-tac jump (using it in the open looks a bit strange) would be nice if you could still combat roll if you have no backpack One thing that got me was I Put on a Ghillie suit yesterday and it broke my legs

As long as zombies no longer walk through closed doors I’ll be happy

Nar that’s easy mode there is something about having to reload after each shot or picking off that lone zombie with the crossbow that just gives it such a badass feel or maybe it’s because everyone really wants to become more like Daryl

So there is a few female skins like Rita Ensler, Damsel, Sportswoman, EuroWoman2 Can’t they just make gender specific packs of clothing? Think about it you run in to a house see a brown paper bag get your hopes up on camouflage clothing go to check it only to realise its women’s clothing and you can’t use it. Since ghillies are not much more than a moving bush why not let both male/female use them. The least they could do random generate the starting female model so you get a little variety.

Why not have a timer (say 15minutes) and if you die of natural causes (zombies, infection, etc) or you suicide in that time you spawn in the same place.

Hahaha reminds me of my first flight. I was walking around up north looking for camps (as you do) when I stumbled across a mini bird having never flown before and being told there is a flight training in AMRM II I was like no worries quick training then I’ll be good to go. So off I log and fire up normal ARMA only to find there is only one chopper available (might have went to the wrong training) some large slow moving civ chopper. Anyway come hell or high water I was going to learn to fly and figured there cant be much difference in choppers (thanks bf3) so I jump in this chopper take off after a successful take off (thanks auto hover) and a few not so successful landings I was able to cruse around in this beast for a good 15 min. Thinking I was some sort of top gun decided it was time how hard could the mini bird be so I logged back in to Dayz approached the mini bird and fired it up. Takeoff was all good (thanks again auto hover) I was in good spirits disabled auto hover and that’s were it all went wrong I nudged the joystick forward just the slightest and watched in horror as the mini bird I was in flipped nozed dive and planted into the ground all in the matter of seconds. Have never seen a chopper since that day and have never been back to training. Fun fact I’m due to fly one IRL come Monday

0-10 is probably a better number with a high chance of the drum being empty something like 0 cans- 25%, 1-15%, 2-15%, 3,-10% 4-8%, 5-8%, 6-7%, 7-5%, 8-3%, 9-2% and 10-2%.

If there are classes I would much rather classes were a random thing sort of a special spawn Some classes might be The Mechanic Starting item - toolbox Skill – full vehicle repair (all others can only reach yellow) Medic Starting item - watch Skill – faster medical application (both self and others) Hunter Starting item – knife Skill – one additional meat from animals Army Private Starting item – compass, map Skill – longer sprint Through actions players learn the skill of other classes Repair – fix X amount of vehicles (10 wheels, 2 engine blocks, 5 scrap, 1 main rotor assembly) Medical application – perform X amount of medical acts ( 20 bandage, 15 blood bags, 5 epi pen 5 morphine). Additional meat – gut x number of animals (2 rabbits, 1 chicken, 3 goats, 3 pigs, 2 cows) Longer sprint – run x distance (run 30km)
