    Lingerie zombies

    I'm in the closed beta. You can pay for conveniance, to get mechs/weapons/XP quicker, or for aesthetics, but you cannot purchase a tactical advantage like World of Tanks or Combat Arms. All objects can be purchaseable through ingame money, if you are patient and determined. It makes sense since the fanbase is mostly 30+ with wives/kids/jobs.
  2. I agree that it is a little silly to put graphic violence in a less mature light then sex... but rape? I don't know man. A game with rape would go over just as well as a game in which you crash airliners into the World Trade Center. Not to mention, who besides extreme sociopaths would even bother with it? Moral issues aside, it would be a wasted mechanic if nobody used it. Go play Rapelay.

    Lingerie zombies

    WORD. Mechwarrior 3 is the best MW3! Mechwarrior Online is coming out very soon if you didn't know. No Bushwacker though, since it is later on in the timeline.

    What is the point of the M24?

    Style points. Infinite ammo through mag conversion is nice too... But mainly Style points.

    Or, y'know, good looking chicks that AREN'T zombies. But no, that would be boring. It has to be a wierd fetish.

    What about adding AH-6X.

    Mi-17 would fit the mod better. Also, An-2 Colt needs to be added as well.

    Make Hunting Knife a Sidearm Melee

    I figured this had been suggested at least 5 times. I just wouldn't want Rocket to put it in the rifle slot.
  9. For me: 1st - Glitches 2nd - Hackers 3rd - Zombies 4th - Players I don't think death by man-eating rocks, crushing trees and bushes, falling through the map, and nuking hackers qualifies as a proper death. I think about 25% of my deaths have been due to ways you are supposed to die.
  10. M107 is a balanced weapon considering the rarity, the AS50 on the other hand... It was originally supposed to be "extremely rare", but now you see it everywhere.
  11. Sorry to put this in the general section but this is kind of urgent, you can move to troubleshooting after. The front right wheel popped, so we've been trying to repair it while in a zombie dense town with little shelter. Finding wheels is extremely difficult so we only have 1 more shot at this. When you have a wheel in your inventory, walk up the van, I get 12 options for wheel repairing despite the van only having 4 wheels. I figured that red options meant broken/gone. First I tried the option "repair RF2" (right front 2?) which was red. I do the animation, no tire is on the right front wheel. My friend tries the other red option "repair right middle" and the animation plays. It doesn't work either. So we've used 2 possible options that were red to repair the front right wheel. Neither of them worked. There is a "repair right front" option but it is green. Is that the right option, or is our game glitching out? My group is fairly new and our first build (red GAZ) also hit an invisible wall and had its tires pop in the same town. That place is cursed.

    Repairing S1203 Van Wheels

    Thanks it worked. Hopefully we can get our car too.

    100'000 humanity, i want my Jesus skin!

    I think playing as Master Chief is a little unfair.
  14. It was a man. It was infected. It became a zombie. It was irradiated. It mutated. It evolved. It came from the Green Mountain. Aside from possibly adding to the backstory of DayZ (assuming we get one in the standalone), another enemy type that fits the atmosphere of DayZ would be nice. If anybody has read the book called "Cell", they know what I am talking about when zombies evolve into something smarter. They retain a lust for blood, but they are capable of thought and have methods of hunting down flesh. Something I've seen around the DayZ community is an encounter with a Slenderman-esque character known as Ghillieman, an unarmed man in a ghillie suit who stalks the player and progressively gets closer, and is capable of walking at sprinting speeds. Having "Slenderman" appear in the game wouldn't fit the atmosphere at all, but something that puts "horror" back in "survival horror" would be nice. Evolved zombies are found out in the wilderness, far away from any civilization, and appear more often the further you are to the North. They will wear the attire of their last victim, and will keep a ghillie suit on. They do not shamble and sway, shriek or growl, they move with purpose and stealth because the motor control part of their brain has actually improved. Like Romero zombies, they can only be killed with a shot to the brain. They have almost catlike night vision, batlike hearing, and much much much stronger senses then normal zombies. Being struck by one does quadruple the damage of a regular zombie, causes you to bleed twice as fast, and has a higher chance of causing infection. They can move as fast as pre-1.7.2 zombies, so slightly faster then you. If one sees or hears you (you might not even know), it will run away from you until out of sight (it will turn invisible even if the game doesn't imply they can actually do that). If you continue to move in the general direction you were heading, it will appear behind you eventually (or in front of you if you check your back) and run at you very fast and shriek loudly. In your panic, you must shoot it in the head. It will likely be a surviveable encounter, but damaging. It would be something that sets it apart from other zombie games. I would especially want this in the standalone game if there is more reason to explore outside of cities and airfields and farms (adding things like poacher camps). Who wants it?
  15. Well to be fair, zombies are a threat because they charge you in groups. They also zigzag and glitch around alot which makes them hard to hit, but I imagine that will be fixed in the standalone. Quadruple damage isn't as bad it sounds because zeds really only do maybe take off 50-100 blood when they hit you. At most an Evolved Zombie will take off 400 blood faster, and since you have 1 to deal with, you can just bandage right away after you kill it. As for health, getting a single headshot on a target running right at you isn't that hard. Of course, you will probably freak out a little bit when you see it appears. I don't want these guys all over the woods. If you were running from Cherno to Starry, you will come across maybe 1 of them. If you were running from NE Airfield to NW Airfield, you will find 2 or maybe 3 of them. Just a little scare factor that will keep some players on the roads. They should probably spawn 800m away or so from the player, and the amount that spawn depends on how many are in a group.

    Fix artifacting, FFS.

    (Left Shift) + (Numpad -) No interface will appear, but it is active. Type the word "FLUSH" on your keyboard and the screen will temporarily be black. The artifacts should be gone. This also works if your video drivers crash and don't recover.

    Rarest thing in DayZ.

    Isn't the rarest thing in the game a radio? Do they still have a chance of spawning anywhere? (like 0.00001%)

    Green Mountain

    There is something wrong with that mountain...

    A Dying Cinematic/Execution

    Why would you want to execute somebody? DayZ isn't a war. There is no glory or honor. Nobody is "the enemy". People kill to survive, that doesn't necessarily mean they would take joy in killing other people. Put a bullet in the back of their skull when they aren't looking at take what you need, and then leave. OP needs mental help.
  21. The .50cal should be too "shaky" outside of 500m to use accurately or 300m when standing. As well, the .50 cal snipers should: A) require dissembly to put both the receiver and barrel in your backpack seperately B) take up the space of your backpack, unless you are using a Czech Vest pack (4 slots)
  22. While were at it, let's add the .80 cal NTW-20 into the mix. :D 6.7 feet long with a 14.5x114m barrel on it. Can also take 20x81mm explosive rounds, or if your REALLY crazy, 20x110m anti-aircraft shells!

    Should Green Mountain be Haunted?

    Have a sanity meter, like in Amnesia? :P
  24. That's not the point of this thread at all. This isn't a matter of "I'm unarmed with nothing on me, he shouldn't shoot me!". It's a matter of "I'm unarmed with nothing on me, why the fuck would he shoot me?". It isn't even killing for beans, it's not even for fun. It's just... killing because you can. That is what annoys alot of people.
