I like the hardcore feel of that but it's kind of one of those things we need cuz we can't move and search as fluently as we could in real life , I mean when I'm on the ground prone I can't even crawl under stuff , in real life obviously you could . And for me I mostly use both (ill look around first and if I can't find anything or can't seem to reach something simply by pointing ill go vicinity ) or for when you're runnin through a hotspot real quick , it's nice to be able to scoop a weapon up that you see , as you could in real life , instead of just getting rocked by the dude chasing ya haha .. So in my opinion I say keep vicinity , I see where this could break realism for some but I think for the people who first try and look around , this is a great thing to have to pick up anything left behind .

Yes it would so when vehicles do arrive I'm sure they will spread spawn points across the map , cuz like in real life you can find cars anywhere . so I hope that they put cars everywhere including the coast , but make them ridiculously hard to get running again . That way people can spawn all over the map and the ones that spawn far north won't have a better chance of getting vehicles (like in the mod , cars were always up north) and in my opinion I believe most of the vehicles should be very close to rust buckets and they should (mostly) be situated around the shore (as if the whole continent were trying to evacuate to boats and such). But when barricading, hunting , an vehicles come in people will surely be going inland and not just for the airfields , but to maybe find a house they like deep north and barricade it , also the majority of animals would mostly be in the north (considering its all woods anyways) .

doors will be breakable , maybe not for a while but it was talked about some time ago If I remember correctly.. And as for comparing this to other zombie games .. Lawl just lawl , lets stop there , there's a reason why THOSE games didnt sell 2 million copies in their alpha stage ... just give this game time and stop comparing . But on another note, I don't experience ANY problems on experimental right now except that when Im attacking a zombie sometimes they run away and eventually end up running into a wall til they disappear . so no dropbear I like the zombies because they are actually starting to get challenging , so lets not confuse the progress on the zombies with the glitches lawl( progress = aggroing more and being faster , being tougher could be a glitch but IMO we need harder zombies so I hope it's not , and don't say that the invisible zombies is a part of their plan to make them harder that's obviously a glitch and when someone says " I like the zombies right now " they obviously don't mean those glitches lawl.) And like someone said balance is necessary , which is why for a while now the zombies will most likely keep being tweaked until a really good personality is developed for these supposed "cause of the apocalypse " (zombies). -

I'm finally happy with the zombies now , please don't nerf them , this game is finally getting challenging :( ... Maybe zombies difficulty could be determined by the server? But of course there would be a minimum of how easy they can be ? Hear me out mr. green ... -

Anyone wanna help an old dirty bastard on how to throw items ? Lawl I've been trying to throw rotten bell peppers , long story short I just end up eating them ... =P also it seems zombie bodies are staying longer after being killed ? Can someone confirm this is happening on experimental (what I saw it on ) or am I just crack baby ? Edit : thanks To raebuluz' video I learned throwing lawl but still anyone know if zombie bodies are remaining longer than before ? I've only found and killed one thus far too try it.. -

Dude , relax , before I come to your house and wrestle you ... And I will win ... But on a better note I can't wait to play and experience the beginning of greatness :0 -
Yes and if it's a single door you can tie it to another doorknob (if applicable lawl) or heavy object or whatevs. I'm definitely down for more ways to barricade when that arrives..

Imagine if chenarus had a living personality: let me explain
blackberrygoo replied to powderdtoastman's topic in Suggestions
Ya no npc transmissions please , but there has already been a lot of talk about player controllable radio stations (like ones you would be broadcasting this message from ) which would defly add a new "hot spot " to the map , but im sure thats far down the road ,.. but don't forget mang that the game isn't even 1/4 done, all the lore and "scary stuff" should come around beta IMO cuz the way I see it id rather have the whole dev team working on server issues , lag/Desync glitches and the optimizations for more zombies and people per server before any of the finishing touches, so to speak , are added . -
A very busy couple of weeks for the whole team has just ended....
blackberrygoo replied to SmashT's topic in News & Announcements
Woot woot !! Can't wait for this update and if worst comes to worst well only be waiting another 2 weeks max I'm guessing (hopefully less obviously :0) -
Lawl it's so funny seeing what people were complaining about when the alpha started, cuz now the decision to use chernarus isn't a topic of debate at all . People just need somethin to complain about in their lives I guess ... Someone from tha past gimme a holla' !

DayZ Standalone- Steam: Preparing to launch
blackberrygoo replied to proto00000's topic in Troubleshooting
My cuz had the same problem , he closed his antivirus and took down his firewall til restart , but if you've already done both and have been troubleshooting correctly then I'm not sure either sorry mate .. but like I said my cuz disabled kaspersky anti virus and took down his firewall and it worked for him , he has windows 8 also which I thought was the problem ... Edit : also my cousin first stopped his antivirus via the task bar in the bottom right but he noticed deep within his task manager that his antivirus was still running protection from incoming connections, so check the task manager processes as well, for your antivirus , I know that's common sense but somehow i feel this is the same as my cousins issue .. -

This. Just this . For all you out there complaining just read this . And if that doesn't satisfy you then kindly Gtfo and go find another game cuz you can't always get what you want when you want it.Besides great things take time , regardless of how long it took to get to this point were at now , there should be no complaining considering you were told not to buy the game in its current state. also there are plenty of other games or things to do on this earth so go do that instead of givin yourself tumors from stressing over this game, if you're "such upset" with it or if you think you could make a better game or manage one better then maybe you should make a career in gaming instead of playing and complaining about them . =^O.. Edit : dayz dev tumblr is probly the best place to see what's coming next. (Not necessarily to see what's on the next patch ) . and the "news and announcements" on the forums is best to find patch notes . That might sound obvious But people seem to think whenever a "new experimental" version number shows that the devs have to write a patch notes for it , this is absurd because many updates contain nothing but small fixes , barely even able to be called hot fixes. So when you see new experimental version number out , but no patch notes, know that there is NOTHING NEW on it, don't just assume that this must be a new patch and the devs just don't wanna make new patch notes , c'mon guys ... -
Pending Changelog: Experimental Branch: 0.42.116002
blackberrygoo replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
Just checked out the dayz dev tumblr... For all those complaining about updates this next one (or couple ) will feature some amazing stuff .. Just check the link that bone boys dropped . -
Yes please , while I get the whole "one shirt" thing , layering is essential for homeless living ... Let us have layers!!! Shirts under sweatshirts (in Russia, shirt wear you !) shirts under tracksuits , hell we should even be able to wear multiple t-shirts (so long as they don't have spots to put items in them cuz that would present some kind of loot stacking problem ) . ShirtZ .

NPC family to care for and to defend from the zombies...
blackberrygoo replied to headache38's topic in Suggestions
An interesting idea but you can pretend your buds are your family ;) ... Besides once hunting, temperature system, barricading, building, restoring power via generators and constant storage + vehicles are in there will be no "getting bored" :) -
Yes this is a good idea one suggested before but that doesn't take from it's merit ... Maybe if we get a bunch of people to like and support this new thread the devs will think of addin the sounds early ;)
-
It's a simple suggestion , one that I feel has already been suggested but I can't seem to find it ... Anyways the idea is to be able to press your ear up against a wall or door to hear voices easier . It might just be my speakers but it seems to me that I can never fully make out a conversation being had when its behind closed doors . And don't get me wrong i love the thrill of wondering what people are talking about but sometimes I like to totally take people by surprise like some crazy ass assassin , so being able to press your ear up against a door would allow you to eavesdrop on whatever they are planning ... A small suggestion and could be ruled out if it is just my speakers that don't project it well but it would for me be another one of those small additions that make a world of difference.

I'm down for more candies being added but please no toothaches I already have to get a real root canal let alone a virtual one haha .
-
In my opinion as Long as its not impossibly rare we really shouldn't be talkin about if the gun is native or not . Yes if people constantly are requesting the most impossible to find guns then we should eagerly deny it but c'mon guys I don't wanna see everything native to the area ... That being said I'm a double edged sword and would rather see something else in terms of unique pistols haha ... But please unless it's a freaking missle launcher lets try and sum up other reasons other than "ls it native" as to why the gun in question shouldn't be added .

Yea we definitely need this , If you guys haven't noticed , the small brown log cabin house with no loot in it has a back room (with a bear skin rug) that has a large opened window you can crawl through . I think this was the first and only window you can crawl through so far , and my idea is that when physics are intergrated a lot more windows will be opened up to jump through seeing as we will be able to properly assess how far a drop can be before legs start to break (as opposed to now where we can't even drop five feet without Breakin a leg ).

blackberrygoo replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements
No loot is "fixed" on stable , just like others said only certain civilian buildings spawn loot that previously didnt , most houses with fireplaces (log cabins, yellow sided cabin) still don't spawn loot , I'm guessing those houses will be configured with loot for the update with fire but that's just a guess ... But the experimental loot fix you're talking about is for stress testing or something as one of the devs stated a day or two ago in the dev tracker , but yea this will be a much different game with hunting cooking and storage but it's already fun now if you find a decent server with no teleports or rubberbands ...
