Statik (DayZ)

But lots of people don't want to play like that. They want to set their own objectives. I want to be able to spawn, see where I spawn, and go from there, make it my story. I don't want to spawn and see "Bob123 is located somewhere on the map! You must find and assist him!" (not to mention the problems that would go along with something of that nature.). The idea of DayZ is to spawn completely fucked more or less. You should be equal to other players, and your main boost is your mind, not your "doctor boost" or your "soldier boost."

If I had a dollar for everytime I saw a post like this. The SA will be out when it's out. If rocket just released it so you guys would "get your damn game already" we would all be playing DayZ SA right now! Wouldn't that be awesome? Except for the fact that you would be playing a polished version of the mod, instead of a whole new game.

The thing is, a "class" or "leveling" system would completely change DayZ, for the worse. There should be nothing that you can use to "aid" you such as a leveling system. And yes, my name would be "Sassy Statik." I can see it already. "Sassy Statik, working firepoles all across Chenarus Entrance Fee - 1 Beans Lap Dance - 5 beans and Coke Champaign Room - DMR or 150 beans. Get a piece of him before the zombies do"

It would honestly like this. But it would have to be regulated. I would be 100% down for the Offroad Pickup with a PKM on it.

You're not running any mods, such as JSRS are you? I had JSRS in my launch perameters and it would kick me, but it would kick me before I got the chance see see the SFX error at the bottom. If you have a friend, ask them to go on that server, then you try to log in, and ask them to watch and see if an error pops up along the bottom.

The point of DayZ is to survive. Not do quests. Nor should DayZ have "specalties" like you suggested. I see where you're coming from, but that would be unrealistic within itself. If you're going to make character spawn randomly as soldiers, or doctors, or mechanics. You would have to add in accountants, strippers (I'll take this thanks), teachers, priests, *insert thousands of jobs here* or else DayZ will just turn into a "class" game. The point of DayZ is for the player to choose their path, not the game. Plus people would just suicide untill they get the class they want.

Would that result in your feet getting covered in calluses, which in turn transforms you into Cody Lundin?

You don't need to be at a GAS station. Just anywhere with a fuel tank (lots of barns and industrials have them). But don't listen to the "Alt-F4" guys, that's a joke. Pressing "Right Shift + P" beside a fuel tank will auto-refill your heli/car/jerrys.

I was originally going to take the little guy from the SA and have him peeking at you but sensoring out a massive pair of man boobs. But after 10 minutes, I came to the sad realization I can't make something to resemble that in MS Paint.

If that's the case, my player on the public hive has been sleeping for over 100 days..

If it's on steam, no. Because you both can't be logged into steam, and as far as I'm concerned, the majority of CD keys, are stolen, unless they're sold by Bohemia, and I don't think they sell them.

It looks amazing. Not to fond of the "quick inventory bar" and the gear menu colors and text make me feel a little too cartoony (it randomly reminds me of torchlight).

So you want to trade debatably the best gun in the game for an M4 varient? I wish you well on your journey to nowhere.

Imagine the ability to drop a flashlight, while it's on, and point it in any direction. It's pitch black out, you see a player by the Cherno church, you and your friend take shots and flush him into the church. You now both place your "on" flashlights pointing the front of the church. Effectively pouring light into the church, illuminating the player and his surrounding area, along with a slight blinding effect on the player. To implement this, you could have the option to "Drop Flashlight On" from your tool belt, and the flashlight will be facing the direction your character is facing. The ability to do this with a Military flashlight could also have certain perks, such as marking an LZ, or illuminating an area while looting, etc. Let me know what you think. I just think it would be a neat little addition, even if it's too late in the Alpha to add anything. Thanks, EDIT: It might be nice for the light to go out after a certain amount of time, thus removing the possibility of illuminating the whole of chenarus before reset.

We know.

Yes, take the i7. ArmA is very CPU dependent. Moreso than other games. P.S. This would go in the Troubleshooting section. But no worries.

Hmm.. Am I the only one thinking taking every zombie in Cherno, loading it up, finding a fresh spawn, and watching as my sick friends smother this freshspawn with...affection?

Update it manually: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php Just download the latest .zip file at the top, extract it, and run it. Good luck, PM me with any questions. Thanks,

Next time, wait 30 extra seconds before hitting "post." kthxbyebbg

He is correct. Your player is tied to your CD key. As long as you use the same copy of the game, you could play in Canada one day, and Australia the next, and your character will be the same. But good luck getting from Canada to Australia in 1 day and still having time to play DayZ

The screen on your picture is the lobby with no errors whatso ever. Click okay and you will be loaded into the server... O_O

That my friend, is a shit load of bumps. Please keep them to 1 a day, not 5.. Will you all be patrolling around in a boogie van, selling trinkets for beans?

I believe I hear rocket talking about something similar to this. If I recall correctly he said, you will have the choice of wearing something like camo in the rain, with the chance of getting sick, or you can stay dry with a bright yellow rain coat kind of deal. It would be nice to see something such as warm clothes (kind of useless on Chenarus), and LIGHT armour. A tactical vest shouldn't make you invincible, but have minor bullet reduction with low calibre rounds.

This is ArmA physics, and is not intentional. And for the leg breaking part, it would be quite possible for a solid, kick, knee, karate chop to the front of the knee break your leg. And from what I've heard, the medical system in the SA will be much more indepth than the mod. And I personally would love to see a medical system that's related to the ACE medical system. It's not so realistic that it's stupid and boring, but it's quite indepth and makes playing medic the most enjoyable role (in my opinion.).

Also, flares light up like a motherfucker, and flicker, drawing zeds and player attention. While an unmoving/unflickering light, will attract less attention from zeds and players. (i.e. when you toss a flare in Cherno, you can see the sky being illuminated from across town, but not so much with a flashlight. )
