I have always wanted to see more havoc on stairs , I notice at least on my end, bodies in dayz lay pretty well on stairs so a dead body looks natural laying on stairs haha. My suggestion is if running up stairs we could hold the sprint button to run 75% as fast as we normally do up them but have a 20% chance of "falling up " the stairs . If you're clumsy on stairs IRL you'll know what I mean , it's like you fall and lose balance on one foot and pathetically put out your hand (or your gun in your hands or what have you ) . This way when being shot at, the person doesn't have an easy shot when you're character is slowly and unrealistically ascending the stairs haha . The other part is going down . Is there a way to , when you aoproach the threshold of the stairs , to have a feature where you can press the jump button to" jump " steps instead of walking daintily down them ? I don't mean scale the whole 12 set staircase but like make a different "running down stairs " motion , like when people with Long legs skip two steps while walking down stairs . The downfall doing this would be obvious , a nice broken leg . Lemme know what you guys think . I'm gonna go to bed nowlol

I think it's to incorporate dead grass ....

No single player . LAN yes , it brings me back to the old dayz mod where regular people took time to configure their own sever files and essentially had LAN servers like origins . Tons of fun just trying to find the flying bitch (fortress) with noone on your server ,so before we criticize lets remember there is a purpose for LAN ( I know a LOT of kids who aren't exactly the hardcore survival type who play this game and aren't very good because they simply won't or can't put their 100% focus into it which we all know is essential if you even wanna live in dayz . But they love the concept of this game so anything to make them actually get their 30 bucks worth is good in my opinion ). In other words theres a huge quota of casual gamers that would play this game over simpler games if there was a lan feature. I don't know coding but it shouldn't be hard to enable a LAN option , characters wouldn't carry over either obviously . If its truly too hard to code LAN feature into the game then so be it people will just have to deal going to low pop servers like everyone else but if it were possible/ not money or time consuming it would be a much better idea than leaving it out . EDIT: I just realized there IS a LAN feature in the server browser already ? It obviously doesn't work But shows they are at least trying it or something ? Somebody fill me in if I'm missing something haha .

They defly should cuz otherwise what the hell are they for lawl ? If not now then they defly will put value to them eventually cuz dayz is all about realism .

I just wanted to know if you guys use your dayz screen shots in your picture next to your name for the forums ? And if so how do you do it it seems as if there's a 50 kb limit to the pics but I can't get any of my pictures from standalone cuz steam and fraps save them over 100kbs higher than the allowed amount .. Any ideas or should I just give up on that ?

I would much rather have been shot on sight haha ? Why would you even say that , they wasted the fresh spawns time , they weren funny they weren't entertaining and worst of all they were liars , the main guy said "we won't hurt you " haha then his friend fucking hits him in the back of the head ... Sorry for posting again I'm at work and need to not kill myself for the time being ;)

Very good topic , but I feel like we only have that one gem "it wasn't me " haha the rest were pretty regular. we need everyone to post the most ridiculous things people have said before death and by beta we will have one ridiculous thread hahaha .

Well although I don't agree with your giddy attitude about you shooting someone who didnt even know you were there , I have to say that everyone likes to blow off steam , just don't make a video of it please especially if it was as boring as that haha . Nice hair though . ( you had hair right ?)

I liked the video , you guys although keeping yourselves exposed a lot , did real well and I thought those fucker bandits were gonna get ya at least twice haha . Good vid mang

Ya just let this dude play the way he wants but I do wanna say I've never seen a more boring "pvp" video and I must say that your friend , well he's got the beginning signs of a fucking sociopath . Best of luck to both of you guys when I shotgun your asses haha , but honestly everything's fair game , lets just go find more worthy PVP videos cuz that was not player versus player that was "helpless player being slaughtered versus player " Note : whoever said " happy family shit" is obviously another one of those kids that don't get the meaning of a sophisticated bandit. Sure they kill for no reason but NOT ALL THE TIME , get real people its way more fun to at least converse with the person and if you're going to kill them at least be a man and give them a chance ... Unless they are a badass adversary in that case kill them on sight :0.

This all the way sucka please crackers an cheese have my beans ... ALL we need is barricades , harder zombies / better pathing through doors instead of zombies going through walls , and environmental disasters. Or if that's too hard just lots more zombies grouped in nomad herds , when the servers allow it tht is ...

This is my first ever edited video, although im not into the flashy stuff i try to keep your attention haha. Any "lag spikes" is me alt + tabbing. Any bad graphics is due to my free video converter =(. Smart Ass comments: 1. " You guys gonna rape me?" 00:28 2. " This is injustice!" 1:00 3 "Is this cuz im Asian ? You guys dont have asian friends?" 1:09 4. " Ooh a black guy you don't see that all the time." 1:47 5.."There's nothing but bandits in the damn faaarest!" 2:58 6. " I think they just want my baby blue briefcase." 3:16 7. "I've got a machete i could never kill you. " 3:38 8. "I'm going to fucking HAUNT you." 9:48 WARNING: this is not constant pvp, although it IS a great high adventure. 6:20 - 8:20 is event-less but suspenseful. Song rights for "Friends" belongs to Led Zeppelin (good song check it out).

Whatchu talking 'bout Willis ?

I wouldn't mind tribal masks , some animal masks , and like creepy marionette masks . Also stone sniper masks with or without the added effect of being able to sometimes survive being shot in the face .

Ya I see where you guys are going with this .. But what about the people in t-shirts still restricted for some reason going up stairs ? It's all in the engine and they should eventually address it , unfortunately it's pbviously on the back burner haha , I guess ill wait til beta and post again . Ps: think of soldiers in war and firefighters. They carry 50+ lbs of gear and weapons up stairs and they don't always walk politely up them in battle / fires .

Well I know this is very similar to what we all already want , but I think it would be great to add the breaking of doors by players first BEFORE Zeds so we can have the mechanic in the game so they can work the bugs out early (sounds like it makes sense haha maybe I'm just ancy ). Players would have the ability to destroy any door that can be opened , and they would reset on server restart. They would break in pieces ( or like corner quadrants) depending on where the player hit . I think guns would have to have a different impact both aesthetically and physically , so if you hit a door with a fire axe it would make a large slice , totaling 6-8 slices until the door broke into wood rubble or whatever dayz would make it look like . But guns would put a certain amount of holes in it depending on the gun and the door. if this mechanic was put in we could shoot through the doors , not to just get through them but to kill the person on the other side and that would be awesome .

I would say a big ass NO for this being mandatory but if private hives wanna get into this when they come out I say go for it . I'd play it here and there when I'm really in the hardcore feel . Some people could get into it like role playing , especially if they know they are only away for hours at most at a time (of course people would be choking on their food trying to get back to dayz to see if they're handcuffed naked beaten to death). It'd be like real sleeping and in theory can be a more immersive game for a small majority of gamers so if its easy enough I don't see why we shouldn't allow private hives to activate this feature if they want.

Yes we're missing caves , high mountains , Rivers , cliffs , sewers (where's da poop going ?), attics, graveyards , and my personal favorite that I think we need very soon after beta(or sooner) is a gigantic mansion with underground passageways and multiple floors like in resident evil 1 and the remake on GameCube. We need more Geography and stuff as soon as possible after all the big issues please !

Let all the ignorant people talk guys , fact of the matter is you took the BEST route of dealing with that guy , at least the most fun and productive way. People that say " oh kill him he would have died any way" I just don't get at all , this is a SURVIVAL game they intend to do just that , so id give all my loot for a chance to be spared in a situation like this , and he even let the guy keep his Gun , which is IMO harder to find than ammo . And the people that aren't grateful for being spared are the exact same ones running around KOSing with no reason or style whatso ever , they believe it's impossible to do what you guys just did, but it's all about communication , sleight of Hand , and controlling the situation . I suggest for those that dont ever spare people (or for those who don't communicate to strangers before shooting ) to go into a largely populated server with an empty gun and instead of shooting on sight , convincing the person to do what you want at gun point . Further more you have no bullets so this really practices not just killing every one you see like in the video . Ask the person you are holding up for the shit you need , keep it on a human level and you can both walk away alive. If they come back for revenge that's just another instance to have fun so I don't ever see that as a good excuse to kill someone after you already have the upper hand (if you are always prepared you can 90% of the time handle what comes at you ) (the other 10%=suck it up ). In my opinion (and I'm sure plenty others ) creating a working environment for the game is the biggest issue , and to seperate this game from the mod it needs more than just graphics and force feeding , it needs promise of rebuilding as if it would be like in real life . You gotta trust a lot of people to rebuild civilization after a zombie apocalypse so lets lessen unrealistic extermination of each other and increase interesting encounters that ultimately play into a more plausible apocalypse , yes we know the apocalypse would be chaotic but even bandits know dead people can't make babies :/.

I dunno maybe the armor values of stuff is too high , I find myself dying in 3 shots of an m4 when I'm a fresh spawn , but when I'm geared I just get knocked unconcious . I would like the chance to actually stay alive (very rarely ) when I'm shot with no armor , and a little less chance of always living when shot with full gear on , or at least let us break a rib if we have a lot of armor on and are shot . And you're right it seems people survive gun shots when they are geared as if they had Kevlar vests on ( although I do know that some of the "vests" have types of bullet proof stuff in it like the press vest and the other one I can't remember, dunno if they register as being tougher though) I'm sure this and the over excessive gun spawns will be worked out soon though throughout the next few patches .

I like the idea but in a different way . I agree with Gews that bullets are never usually removed unless absolutely necessary , and when it's necessary it's usually because : it's in your eye , it's on a joint , if it causes actual discomfort or pain, OR if you have high amounts of led in your bloodstream . I'm sure it's rare in the world today where we take a bullet in the pinky and have to go to the hospital, but if we are apocalypse survivors who can survive numerous gun fights after getting shot wouldnt it be cool if we had to remove a bullet in the case that you get led poisoning from being shot too many times in one life ? Its a Long shot but the message of led poisoning could say " I don't feel so well(good?)" following with vomiting once, after this your character can then extract a bullet from his body with pliers and some alcohol or whatever by either combining them or just a scroll wheel action . But if neither of these ideas sell to the devs I guess we just gotta pack up the ol' remove bullet idea haha .

Ya we definitely need better melee , they have been Buffing it up with better sounds but we still need a total revamp eventually . You can't even swing inside a building with a semi- low ceilin without hitting the walls or ceiling . And I think an advanced stamina system would make melee much more realistic , like everyone's saying it will make your character lose balance on hard swings and fatigue to the point of not being able to attack .

It would be cool for one of the three or so static tanks (not the monument ) to be repaired and driven around I would say that the ammo should be non existent though . So if anything this tank would just be the only "house on wheels" (before they add rvs if they do) and a death trap if you run out of fuel in a zombie crowd. So hell I say lets do it I would love to see( and hear) a guy ballsy enough to take two real days to repair a tank come rolling through Cherno/ electro , it would make a great conversation piece for the time being :). And like I said a great place to hide/ protect yourself maybe with a little escape hatch at the bottom of the tank (I think it's usually for making repairs but could be used at an escape route if someone's waiting for you to open the top hatch ). So we shouldn't consider it for any of the first vehicles and IMO it should never be able to be shoot , maybe just the machine gun but I can see it being op with a team of bandits being buttholes in a tank even with just a machine gun working .

Ya honestly I don't think we should be putting guns into the game solely based on effectiveness , but although this rife would be a very UNIQUE choice I do have to agree that this should be a weapon reserved for a dayz standalone MOD . Simply because we all know that only a certain amount of items / guns can fit into the database , so I love the creative idea and believe me I was all for it before GEWS schooled all of us on rifle knowledge again , but when I do think of how troublesome it would be I just say to myself : "we'd probly be better off with and even older 'firearm' , the bow and arrow" =).

Take my Texas ranchero beans you beast of a man . Great idea mang I'd just etch the amount of people I've killed with X's on one side of the barrel , and tallys on the other side showing the amount of people I've handcuffed and raped .
