I dont understand why there is no AUTO RUN KEY!!!
phoboss replied to Bohannan (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
Why do you care?! If the op finds it useful, let him use it! No one is forcing you to do the same. -

phoboss replied to Bohannan (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
No I compare people who are against gay marriage with people who are against auto run or 3rd person, because they are both stupid. Because they are against something they don't have to do or use, but don't want other people doing or using it either. Because of... ReasonsI haven't read a single reason why auto run shouldn't be implemented aside from, "lulz nub, use coin or macro!" or "laawl nub will get shot". People do it through other methods, so why not implement a function for it. Just like respawning through "normal" methods. If people want to respawn, they're going to do it anyway, why not let them do so through the respawn button?! -

phoboss replied to Bohannan (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
What I don't get is, why do people care if I get killed while auto running? Here's the thing, I use a similar solution to the one with the coin, I use it to run while I get myself something to drink or take a piss. I've been doing this since the beginning of the mod, and NEVER got killed while doing so. The reason why I still would want an auto run function is this, you can alt+tab. If you auto run in wow you can alt tab and check forums or maps or what ever, but whit a coin in your keyboard or a macro you can't. I really don't see the problem. Don't want to use it? Then don't, no one's forcing you, but why be against it so others can use it if they want to. It's not like if gay marriage is legal you suddenly have to marry someone from the same sex as you. But letting other people do it, would be nice. -
DayZ Sound Design Test - Part 3 Final Added
phoboss replied to fortran's topic in General Discussion
Love those side! -
Cloths already get damp or wet, pretty sure that's already in the pipeline for items as well.
-
No they don't. Just extra storage

having more than one character. thoughts?
phoboss replied to chewythefirst's topic in General Discussion
Biggest problem would be exploiting the system. Let's say your main character is close to dieing for what ever reason. You log of, create a be one and run to the position of your main. There you log back in your main, die, and log back to the alt to collect all your gear. So no, no more than one character per hive. -
Not a bug but a feature, and a great one at that. Spawning on the east rather than the south west is the best thing that happened to the spawn system since the release of the mod. Now you spawn far far away from the military loot and actually have to work to get there. I give all my beans for this change!

The only solution for DayZ: Simulation.
phoboss replied to SalamanderAnder (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Like a lot of your ideas, although I believe some are taking it a little to far. You just usually die way to quickly and then the 3 hours you put into fixing a car where all for nothing. Complexity, yes please, but don't take it to far, this is still a game after all. And not everyone will think it's fun that they have to study a manual for 10 hours in order to learn how to fly a helo. If you want that, play take on helicopter. But in general you have my beans good sir. One thing I see as problematic is the base building and the possible destruction of said bases. If the complexity is going to be anything like you propose, building a base, even a small one, will be gigantic undertaking. And I don't mind that at all, but if I put 20, maybe 30 hours into building a little house or an underground structure of some sort, I don't want it destroyed by a horde of zombies or some ass hole griefer (which this game has thousands of), while I'm at work or maybe on vacation (this was a huge annoyance in origins, having to login every 7 days to safe your house). In real life I (or someone else) would be there or in the vicinity to defend it. But I can't defend my base 24/7 in a game. -
Big difference is, they haven't had a Weekend of In months.

The role of the zombies in our game.
phoboss replied to darksoul (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I think what you're proposing is a little much. You will die 19 out of 20 respawns within the first 2 minutes. I would not consider that fun. Is it to easy atm? Yes definitely. But dieing every time a zombie sees you is to hard. And that is what would happen with the changes your suggesting. -
The RV engine is the worst engine ever made.
phoboss replied to EchelonEffect's topic in General Discussion
While I agree that the GPU utilization needs to be better (why have a GTX 6** or 7** when its at 40% capacity most of the time), and the overall performance isn't that great, I have just one question for the "haters". Name one engine better suited for DayZ! And don't say, write a new one, because that just shows you have no idea what a gigantic undertaking that is. -
Like I said, look at the link in my sig. I believe that would fix most problems.

Is anybody able to join the experimental servers? Or should I say, able to find any?
-
Is anybody else having trouble finding experimental servers? I switched to the appropriate build, but cant find any servers.
-
If you have something constructive to say, make a thread, if you're just whining and ranting, please just delete your internet.
-
Most simple solution to ghosting is, you can leave and reenter your server as often as you want, but if you switch server inbetween, your banned from your last server for a given time (15 minutes). This way you can go take a pipi/poo/food/sexytime break when ever you want, and come back to play with your buddies. But if you switch the server, you cant go back. More detail about my solution can be found under the link in my sig.
-
Because there are a million reasons why you would want to switch server. Please read my solution (link in my sig), which I think would work pretty good.

Blood types, Blood bags and Transfusions
phoboss replied to DevilDog (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Or you have it tattooed onto your body :) What we do ingame is, as soon as you find a blood bag after spawn, you let someone else take your blood and then you keep the bag. Over time you'll regenerate the blood if you're well fed and hydrated. When in critical need of blood, like after a firefight, you can give the bag to a friend and let them transfuse your own blood to you. -
Where is everyone? NW Airfield not a hotspot anymore?
phoboss replied to Denzje's topic in General Discussion
I would've liked talking to the guys we had PvP with today. Would've congratulated them on the nice kills and thanked them for not being pussies. They died like men! :D I wouldn't mind global chat IF you could hide it. -
Blood types, Blood bags and Transfusions
phoboss replied to DevilDog (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Yeah perfectly fine O- Blood bags laying around for weeks ... -
I hope they implement a solution fast. had such a great pvp experience today. the first one in over 50 hours played without anyone combatlogging or ghosting. wish their would be more of those :)
