I like the companion Dog's idea. Let's say they follow you within a certain distance and if a real player enters that zone the dog barks to inform you. Then if he get's killed you can eat him. lol.

Damage output should differ in regards to real players and zombies. The 22. sucks right now in both aspects. Zombies should take one shot to the head to die in any situation. You are playing the game to survive from them and eradicate them. Players are your other means of survival, they have the ability to think and equip themselves like yourself; so they should have varying degrees of damage absorption, in my opinion.

I think for overall fun and taking into account the rarity of what ammo *should* become - two to the body and one to the head would be ideal. I think it's enough to hear a player if he has a loud weapon & it's enough to annoy the silent weapon type's who value ammo; bandit's as well. This thinking is also taking into account that there will be more zombie's per-player per-screen in the future.

We are a young nation, our ancestors succumbed to greed. It wont be like this forever. Just like any nation, we have our good and bad history. And just like any nation, we are not perfect.

This is why we should use ArmA III's Engine.
strongtent replied to Lordocalot's topic in General Discussion
When half the community has yet to see a sunrise or sunset in the game and understand the improvements done with the current engine. I really think the day and night cycles need to be set appropriately for fun gameplay, and not immersive gameplay; realistic gameplay comes from a result of the cycle coming about, the features of the game and fun happening. Not from the passing of real hours matching in-game hours. -
I think it's cool the street lights are on. I think that if they want to make it even cooler: they should make the power stations be destructible like the gas station, and that would turn off the lights in a certain region correlating to that power station. Then when base building is implemented, people could try to restore the power station with resources; in order to take control of sectors and/or entire cities. There is some endgame content that can be expanded upon.

If they roll out the new audio in one big patch, say with vehicles as well. - We got a whole new ballgame. -

You don't there is no effect other than an indicator as of current. I'm pretty sure you will dry off near camp fires and such. -

All I know is: the night before last, I decided to download the experimental branch patch. So I jump into regular experimental server 07 - after getting killed by a group of retards who were trying to tell me where to leave and what direction inland was, after they so kindly decided to rob me. I told them " I know where I'm going, did you all loot the entire town?, so I don't waste my time here?" I hear one of the friends say "awkward", then he decides to repeat what he said previously about which ways west because he could not comprehend meeting a normal person, I presume. I did not want to hear his ramblings any longer, they already robbed me after all - so I say again: "I know where I'm going, did you guys loot the entire town so I don't waste my time here any further?" *pause* "No, okay I'll be on my way. I guess" I ran out the back door they came in (mind you I was on the floor and stood up barren) and was shot in the back and wounded with a broken leg. I then proceeded to tell the dude who shot me who sounded like a sad old man that "they'd hit me and just come and finish the fucking job." I hear his younger more childish friend laugh like a girl or boy with his balls undeveloped - he then proceeds to say "well if you weren't acting like a pr- ...and I talk over him and say, "who's the prick who robbed me and is killing me." Then he executed me. About an hour later I am geared up with an empty M4, a Mosin with a full-clip and and one of those new leather jackets. Now I've been running for a good half hour non stop only to eat in cover; mostly by trees. I hear over what I thought was global chat, some guy screaming how he's going to rape me and fucking murder me, as well as yelling "what the fuck are you looking at!" "Stop Running!!" and the like. So I come to a little town inland I think is Dubvroka. I drop my purple backpack because I find a rope to finish what I needed for a craft-able backpack (I like the camouflage aspect), I then make my way to a barn and see a man with an M4 and another behind him with what I presume is my old purple backpack and an Ax. Anyways, they were coming my way with gun and Ax in hand(s) and I posted up. I pop out with my gun drawn and they keep pushing my way, I shoot the one with the Ax and make him bleed, then I lower my weapon and zig-zag like a motherfucker out of there line of fire and make my way to a log pile up the road that overlooks the town and area where they were fighting me. I wait a good 5 minutes, hydrating on soda and eating. I then move out into the wood's towards NWAF. On my way there after another 15 minutes of running, I notice every time I stop to bait just in case (and to rest my fingers) - I hear a mic turn on, then off real quick. So I then proceed to say over my mic "Why, why". I then stop in my tracks near a hill and a dude with an M4 pop's in front of my face a good 10 feet away like one of those 1920's stop motion movies, - and kills me. He then says "stop talking". What the fuck was that if not a hacker (script) on experimental servers. -
I set something up for my brother who cant get comfortable with a keyboard; using XPadder: LS: Move / Click and hold to Look / Double Click to go from First/Third Perspectives. RS: Aim / Crouch & Stand Up Back: Inventory Start: Prone D-Pad Up & Down: Mouse Wheel D-Pad Left & Right: 1 & 2 on the Hot-bar LB & RB: Lean Left and Right LT: Aim RT: Shoot A: Sprint X: Action Key / Reload (with mag) Y: Toggle Raise Weapon B: Vault Everything else he needed he just used by hitting the specific key on the wireless keyboard next to him.

I plan on playing the game for the most part in Hardcore Servers when the game is more feature rich; to be more specific, vehicles. As of now I play on Regular Servers because they are more populated and have a higher chance of player interactivity. - that and I don't mind having the best of both worlds, some people that are well in both perspectives of the game have a less difficult transition between types. I see them (the camera perspectives) as both having their negatives and positives, but I do think that if a game has more of a universal theme then that is where you will find the better community; joined together for the most part in their understanding of what they like. I ultimately enjoy a more tactical challenge, a game of wits without a clear advantage; and first person will supply that for me.

Can the team try and get that 3D map into a build, that we will be able to hold and view only in our hands? - that was spoken about some time back. I have run into new players and it would be a nice interaction to give them a map and watch them using it, (for immersion & trust reasons) because so many either play dumb or actually do not understand the size of the game. I always just tell them to go on the internet because it is too hard trying to be a tour guide to all peoples; I'd rather just say "Here take this map and we are going to X, now give it back (or keep it)." -

You see motherfucker, - if you form words eloquently to the fucking point of pure fucking pleasure for reading, then I suppose its acceptable. A title giving no context with cursing is just childish. That's my fucking opinion.

(All other Console discussion)DayZ Standalone Might See an Xbox One Version in Future
strongtent replied to Plimax (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I would go the PS4 route and make the touch-pad on the controller emulate the mouse for the extended features needed... that and I'm buying a PS4 eventually. :D
