That would be super epic and I, like 900,000 other people, would definitely pay 30$ to experience such masterful game design! Someone hire this man! (I am being sarcastic, much like I was in the post you quoted, I am in fact laughing at people who go 'DURF DURF THIS GAME SHOULD BE HARD! GO BACK TO COD' over the most asinine bugs and unimplemented features)

Hahahaha. Well, for once, we can read and parse information posted by the development team that gives us a serious advantage in these sort of discussions, additionally we have a grasp on proper game design and understand that despite the delusions of certain segments of the player base the game is not intentionally designed to be boring and frustrating and the development team does not expect players to just 'deal with it' if they picked a server that restarted 3 hours ago.

I want a realistic post-apocalyptic simulator where you spawn already infected with the zombie virus and it's just a matter of time before you die and become a zombie, I will walk around looking for people and yell at them "Don't you get it? We ARE the walking dead!"

Hey, I'm just posting to say that you're a delusional know-it-all and that it has been stated explicitly by Rocket that this is only a placeholder until proper loot respawning mechanics are coded directly into the server engine as he did not want to use external scripts for loot respawns as they were inefficient and created a lot of server lag. So HEY! You are wrong and posting misinformation. How does that feel?

Almost convinced this is all nonsense but with how intentionally obtuse and unintuitive this game is you can't really know. I can tell you this, Healthy just means that your character is at full blood/health or whatever, it has nothing to do with healing or regenerating and I can prove it to you. Eat/Drink until you get the healing status message, wait until it turns to 'Healthy'. Alright, now run/sprint/wait, after a while you'll become thirsty or hungry but your character remains -Healthy-, as we all know, you can't regenerate while hungry or thirsty therefore Healthy does not signify regeneration. Now if you get hit by someone, 'healthy' will disappear and you won't get the 'healing' status as you are hungry/thirsty. I honestly have no idea where this whole 'HEALTHY MEANS YOU'RE REGENERATING FASTER' myth came from, it doesn't even make sense.

Your post might be sarcastic but it is not that far off the mark, Rocket sees gameplay value in manipulating the user's mouse acceleration. This isn't getting fixed.

People seem really pre-occupied with Chernarus and whatever weapons would should supposedly exist in Chernarus when Rocket has spoken already about adding more maps in the future. Just an interesting thought.

That's also how it works in ARMA2 and in the DayZ mod, it's a bit annoying sometimes as you actually have to aim 20cm above a submerged enemy to hit them, it's not ideal solution and Rocket was discussing this issue in one of the pre-release streams, apparently they're considering using this option but are still trying to come up with better solutions.

I wouldn't mind giving servers the ability to enforce certain graphic configurations to level the playing ground for everyone playing on the server. An 'ulta settings' server will have grass draw over extreme distances etc, people who don't have the hardware to play on such servers won't.

Did I ever say that? "Lel" (what a retarded meme). You said something false about Chivalry ('Parry is strictly timing based' "Lel") which indicates that you've never actually played the game or that if you did you misunderstood how that mechanic works "Lel". Now you claim that I said something about how parrying works in M&B which I never did, to which I say "LeL" (cause I'm a 4chan baby).

No you clearly haven't as you insist that parrying is merely timing based in chivalry when it 100% isn't, try parrying an attack while looking the other way, the parry-box is a rectangle shape that appears in the center of your FOV for a short duration of time.

Clearly you've never played chivalry, the blocking box is both placement based as well as timing based if not using a shield, the stamina system also discourages excessive blocking. in MnB you just have to look in a specific direction and hold block until your shield breaks.

Everyone knows Chivalary: Medieval Warfare has the superior melee system. Of course expecting the clunky and lag prone DayZ to provide anything resembling the experience of the Chiv is really fruitless.

If Rocket's vision was PvE he has failed significantly in the DayZ mod, I fail to see the applications of a UH-1H with two mounted M240 machine guns for PvE reasons. There are civilian models of the huey in ARMA2, why did he insist on having one with two mounted machine guns? If Rocket and the dev team are so interested in creating a game in which survival is at the heart of the game they should perhaps consider making survival difficult, challenging and rewarding rather than making the PvP aspects random and tedious.

It is used to increase the blood pressure of patients in a critical condition, its current application in DayZ implies that the 'blood meter' only refers to the characters blood pressure, which is quite nonsensical really.

Not really, Saline has many uses most common when administered through IV is provide hydration and some nutrients to people who can't ingest them orally for whatever reason. It is true that Saline is sometimes used to increase the blood pressure of a person who has suffered significant blood loss but it does not under any circumstance function the same way as blood does, Saline cannot be used by the circulatory system to provide oxygen and nutrients to the organs and cells. The current application of Saline in DayZ is not realistic at all and renders the blood transfusion system pointless.

I think that the current functionality of the saline bags is a place holder or sorts, there's no way that the dev team introduced this complex blood type system for blood transfusions just to have it rendered completely irrelevant by introducing an item that is basically identical to the dayz mod blood bags in functionality. Seems like a waste of effort to make blood bags require so much effort for significantly less reward. I guess saline bags will serve a different purpose once the medical system becomes more in-depth in the future.

DayZ mod already had a 'panic' mechanic that kicked in when you had low blood and zombies were near, a similar thing can be used in the standalone if you're taking fire, it would also allow for realistic suppressing fire tactics. Does not require weapons to be inherently inaccurate.

Oh so you don't have outside knowledge of the geography of Chernarus? You never looked at the map outside the game? Interesting.

I was honestly waiting for you to go prone and roll next to the wall the entire video, you crouching looking at the ground right next to the open window was very anti-climatic as far as the hackusations are concerned.

I never did, it's possible that some dude dropped it there as he found an M4.

This discussion ended a few pages back but I'd just like to point out that with the fact that ammo in the standalone isn't infinite like it was in the mod even some absurdly powerful rifles won't be the same nuisance they were in the mod. (Almost) Every single player in the mod used the 'put magazine in backpack, full magazine after restart' trick and that's why AS50s would get used so often, if players had to actually search for more ultra rare .50CAL nato rounds after running out of their stock they wouldn't have been so trigger happy with those things around new spawns. That is not to weigh on the question of 'does it make sense for an AS50 to even be available in rural Chernarus or not' but rather only to the game balance aspects of those types of weapons.

I'd rather have detailed intricate systems that users have to learn but if that's too much an alternative that might be acceptable (though honestly I'm not sure I like it myself) would be to have randomly assigned professions that grant certain abilities. I.e, sometimes you might spawn as a surgeon, a car mechanic, a law enforcement officer or maybe even a fast food worker. The downside is that people will just suicide until they get the profession they want, the useless professions will be discarded immediately.

Yeah sorry I apparently misread your post and thought that you aren't one of those guys who thinks that guns in a game based on a milsim engine should be completely random. Quite an oversight. It's like, all you people didn't even enjoy playing Day Z mod yet you are the most vocal about the features of the standalone. Super weird.

Cause the most vocal voices in the DayZ community, both on these forums and on reddit, loathe the PvP aspects of the game and can't deal with the fact that a sniper perched in a good position has a good chance to ruin their loot gathering efforts, so they celebrate the nerfed gunplay as it supports their own style of play.
