In agreement with the previous posts, you CAN pick up cans, you CAN throw them, and from what I've heard, they DO attract the zombies. I heard you have to have it land like 30m near the zed, and the throw mechanic in the game is not that great so it's kind hard to land it right, hence why it's never worked for me.

And I meant to reply to you Strategos: Your idea, no offense intended, just would seem to bring in an annoyance factor. Versus being shut-off from ALL server for X amount of time, being shut from just one/a-few would be just plain annoying. It would be just a nuisance. Also, please don't get stuck on my "8 hour" comment: It was, after all, a comment. I went on to say it could be any amount of time. Heck, even 10 minutes seems good (though kind of short in my opinion). And don't get stuck on it being implemented in Alpha: I myself would say it would not be good for alhpa, for all the a fore mentioned reason: Need more testing.

Please expand on what you mean. Like you were expecting them to be slowed down or something? I think the runner's motions are still the same, while you will notice the running motion of the monkey zed's has been updated. If you read the updates in changelogs, you will see that some were left out.

I personally like the PvP aspect' date=' but if you want to strive for realism, there should be consequences for the murders, at least for those seen by others. The heartbeat system has been a nice touch, and the bandit skin was attempted then dropped (thank goodness). [hr']
-
Love the discussion, better then the flame wars we tend to have, ;) I agree that the minimal-izing of starting gear has helped to decrease the banditry. I get shot at less when I shout "just started!", especially since they know they won't even get beans or makarov ammo off of me. I don't know about the karma thing: What if I had 290 kills like that guys on the leader board? Can't play for 10+ days now? That would suck, XD
-
SDCowboy85, please feel free to expand upon WHY you think it is the worst idea. Frankly, your comment is just useless to the discussion. I agree on the bit that it's alpha and testing is needed as much as possible, so I'd say this would be a feature in a later release. What if that rock or teleporting zombie couldn't kill you that way? Think post-alpha, if maybe even post-beta.

Its not that its bad, its annoying.
guidez replied to LeoTheRipper's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's alpha, not beta, and there were some quirks with zombie's ability to see you that are being resolved in 1.7.1.5. This is post #234234 on why hotfix #43523452 sux. -
I thought that Global Chat as supposed to be disabled? I am still finding servers with global chat on, and it's really really annoying to have to read all the Q.Q'ers.
-
Weren't they supposed to force it? I mean, yeah, I can just hit up another server WITHOUT global chat, I just thought Beta was the requirement now. And it's not about muting players or not: It's about the realism factor. It far more interesting and realistic to have to be close to someone to talk to them then to be X Km away and making chat.

The new "Hotfix" just ruined my game.
guidez replied to Higgypig's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
From now on, I will reply to these types of topics with one word. Alpha. -
There is one guy on YouTube making good vids on "How To Do's" in DayZ. YouTube search.

Read: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=15274 How do you expect this to be FIXED if they don't IMPLEMENT it first? Alpha alpha alpha... Everyone freaking sing the alpha song 'cause this is freaking ALPHA -
1.7.1.2 is...LESS GOOD THAN BEFORE !
guidez replied to kumiiyo's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I have a full time job, trying to start a business, have hobbies OUTSIDE of gaming, wife, and kid, and yet I somehow managed to find time to run around the night servers hacking and slashing with my hatchet. Good allocation of time? You are playing a video game. 'Nuff said. -
Probably when you mouse over the Hatchet and it says "Replace X weapon", then that should be a good indicator of which slot it takes. Also, if you saw no "Replace" dialogue, then either you are looking at the bugged hatchets or have no primary.

Primary. Use search.

I am the hatchet master! Bow before my hatchet! HACK SLASH I've noticed that if you hit a player with a hatchet, the player goes FWOOSH and flies a good 50m+. I think rocket noted the melee is underpowered slightly? More like hugely OVERPOWERED: I am dropping zeds like flies, and it seems to be about 12k+ blood per hit. Good thing that 1.7.1.2 was released when most US servers are night time: Else we'd have hatchet murders up the wazoo.

Quick, someone make a YouTube video with you running around, knocking around zeds and players along to this music:
-
Well, I WAS hoping for a night diary of Day 1, but hatchet update has done some... screwy things, least to say.

Zombies are zero threat now
guidez replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Once the kinks are worked out, they will spawn in buildings as well, basically making you have to run into the forest to lose them. Note: Alpha -
Maybe it's just because I watched it so many times that it seems like crap to me... Wife and kid just left the house, onto episode 2 then!
