O-Ren

Chernarus is nice but I'd like to see a new map, specifically designed for DayZ standalone: A map with a large capital city, complete with a subway system, enterable skyscrapers, malls, stores and all that stuff. Airports, military bases, countryside, mountains, lakes and islands. A map that makes me feel as if the apocalypse is happening to my city and I've got to get out there and survive.

Get it straight. It is an Alpha of a MOD for Arma 2. Bugs are meant to happen. You did not pay for DayZ; you paid for Arma2. Get more informed before spending your money, it might save you some whining. Posts like yours appear everyday at the forums. People getting killed by bugs/glitches and writing about how the game and the devs dissapointed them. Well guess what - no one gives a fuck. Shit like in the OP has happened to most of the community, if not all. Just quit without writing about it on the forums, no one really cares... :|

* [NEW] Set Bear Traps that break player and infected legs, kills animals, when activated Meaning that it breaks player's legs and infected (zombie) legs. :)

I think we need to wait for the bear traps to be implemented before we make any assumptions.

:)

I like all of these ideas! Would love to see them implemented when DayZ really kicks off! I'd also like it if the structures you build need some sort of maintenace so that you constantly need to have some kind of an objective: "Hey guys, today we need to go into the town to find some scrap metal/wooden planks for the outter wall!"

I'm not stating that I'm teaching someone how to play, nor am I justifying my actions. It's a game, if I had to justify what I do in a game then fuck me. I'm just saying, in a sarcastic manner, that PKers force you to be more careful. Hence the quotation marks. It's not my fault if you are unable to understand sarcasm. :D

"Dicks like the OP" only make people adapt and become more cautious. No need to shoot on sight, unless you're in need of something or in danger.

I'm studying network and computing systems at University IRL and I'm also designing band logos, web banners and the like as a "job" for some income. I'm a pretty relaxed and happy person. Who I am though does no affect how I play this mod. I prefer to play with a group, it's more fun this way. I kill on sight if I've been spoted or if me or my group mates are in danger. I like to help people sometimes with meds and weapons. I also kill people sometimes because I want their meds and weapons. I NEVER kill just for fun, everytime I kill it's because I need to loot the body for stuff I/we need. But I have no problem killing other players. The Internet anonymity gives you total freedom to do what you want. If everyone's playstyle reflected who they are in real life, the world would be 60% uneducated serial killers! :P

Ahh I remember my first nade... I was alone outside of the Elektro power plant with only a Makarov and a grenade I found inside the power station. As I went outside to search the 2 small buildings around the plant, I saw 2 guys with M16s entering the firestation garage. I'm thinking "Yay, free weapanz!" so I stand near on of the doors and start throwing the frag. I missed for an inch, the nade hits the door frame and hops right back in my face. BOOM! Good times :)

It is true that since I got the AS50 I've been playing in constant fear of someone jumping behing a bush and shooting me in the head! I'm turning paranoid. I play with a group though, so "sitting in ambush alone" is not an issue. We move together and cover each other. The other guys have cool guns too, so we need to be constantly alert and ruthless if we want to keep them! :P Cheers!
