    Too many buildings to loot

    And ill avoid this topic before i get myself in trouble with the moderators but come on man read your post again some of the points actually go conflicting directions ( damn shouldnt have said anything at all now ill need to post for days on what i mean by a simple statement) In this case (looks around trying not to step on toes) I mean you say all loot is trash why because you dont need it, have it already but your not the only one playing, the jacket you leave behind because its trash is the treasure my new spawn will find treasure cause i have already torn up my shirt to make rags to bandage myself.

    Ultra realism Vs Balanced game design

    my point was merely when i said balance 2 posters straight after made the assumption i ment making the game fair (they stated balance shouldnt be involved in a game like Dayz) where infact things can be balanced (as in adjusted) to make the game any way the devs want to, a simple point lost on you or perhaps my inability to express it properly . i admitted i shouldnt have used the term balance but been more concise in what i ment but damn do i have to make every post a book on things when at the end of the day our opinions on the game mean little in regards to if rocket wishes it done a certain way he will do it that way. You have used balance in regards to the backpacks (size versus its ability to be spotted) that was one acceptable use of it and i agree on that point again i had just started this whole convaluted rant session merely pointing out balance does not always equal fair nothing more nothing less. EDIT oh and your backpack idea relates to realisim as you cracked at my use of balance when i used weapon balancing as an example so um adversarial is often an approach used when people are being hypocrites...

    Ultra realism Vs Balanced game design

    No not running away just stepping aside before i actually do throw insults ( i made implications) i never claimed superiority merely there is more than 1 way to use the word balance i cant change the facts and they are sadly the facts i am never going to make you see that its pointless as is our continued and off topic chat . I yield you win you win im a girly i am going to hide from your posts which well never made any concise points on why i was wrong( the wide use of the term of balance and how it relates to game making) how can i argue when there is nothing to argue it redundant and as effective as hitting my head on a wall...

    Ultra realism Vs Balanced game design

    Sorry i am not a teacher i dont have the time to spend 4 years in uni so i can competently explain to someone (who i merely believe to be playing stupid to get a bite out of me lol and i bite to easily a flaw of mine) But the gist of it is there is more than one meaning to balance and the gentlemen i replied to assumed by balance that meant make the game fair... Now if you would like to phone me we can have a long discussion of the term balance (and its many meanings because if you believe it only has one cleary your iq is somewhere below the 90 mark ,then we can discuss how the term relates in the making of a video game..

    Ultra realism Vs Balanced game design

    If you cant understand what i mean by balance by my second statement ( ill give you my first one was a little to vague) then without trying to insult your intelliegence there is little point on me explaining further (balancing of features damages to make them more realistic as in my example with weapons balancing of the amount of loot , loot types. balancing the level of loot players vs zombies when they have optimised the best they can (as they are trying to do now) you know all those things devs do to make the game the experience they intend not what overly chest thumping fanboys say the game is

    Seriously your advocating using exploits guess the lowest level of people still need a voice so by all means carry on but expect to be hated for the scum you are... <_<

    Ultra realism Vs Balanced game design

    so you guys dont want melee weapons balanced to be slightly more realistic (balance doesnt mean to make it fair try being a bit more broad open minded in how a word like balance is used and needed in video game ah the logic of things. Cause the balance on weapons (specially the melee is not quite right or realistic just yet an axe should do far more damage than a baseball bat but it shouldnt take me 20 hits with a bat to knock you out and just 1 lucky one with my fists if we talking realisim here no one is talking about making the game FAIR!!!

    Ultra realism Vs Balanced game design

    Your probably thinking i am a realisim nut but you cant actually make a game all that realistic ( even rocket said he cant make it realistic but he can make authentic) The game should be made as realistic(authentic) as possible without completely forgeting or sacrificing the fact its a game (but i lean more to realistic within the limitations and balance of the game...

    Combat Loggers and Ghost Warriors

    i dont doubt your prowess at Dayz even if you have to say it yourself but i am doubting you forum abilities i mean come on couldnt this post be placed in one of the already large amount of ghosting combat logging threads that we already have???

    What is the Next Big Patch?

    roller skates LOL id love to see that heaven help the poor sod who uses them though he will have to stick to main roads to move well and that will make him fodder quickly (skate board that you can carry on pack now that might be interesting for the odd time you decide to blow caution to the wind and hit the main roads.... But yeah id say alot more bug fixes than new items just yet but i hold hope for a few surprises like maybe a shotgun to go with all that ammo you find laying around..

    Cannot find one player in Standalone

    your probably not finding them in your group of 5 guys because you stand out like nothing else let me guess a group of bambi killers running down main roads looking for the easy kills(or even hunting the harder targets but again not using anything like stealth or over watching these places to see if anyone is there??? you have probably gone past dozens of people in those days who are solo players who have seen you and hidden and waited for you to pass by before resuming there loot hunt. there have been many times i have sat in the woods watching groups run madly here and there killing any and all they find i sit and watch down the long range scope always tempted to fire but if the group has any sense then the risk of me being flanked and killed is high oncee i have given away my position . Oh but when it is just one or 2 of you brave brave men gunning down un or barely armed men i usually pop a shot or 2 then move off back into the woods away from the cities towns till i need food again then ill watch small towns for 15 20 min for any signs then make my way in pistol ready for the fun .. EDIT it should be harder for you hunter killer types now with so many more buildings to enter loot there is little reason to go into miltary areas at all i am happy with my mossin and the 357 i took from a fully armed mil clothed guy having fun killing spawns at komo what ever its called ( the major new spawn area lol ) i doubt he had has much fun blasting away once my bullet struck him through the neck .. still far to many people going the old paths used in the mod when loot wasnt as easy or as far spread in its locations
  12. strange how you have changed how easy it is to try suit your arguement next failed attempt at logic.. none of my pre bought suits are all green or even close to it more evidence you are speaking on a topic you actually have little to NO idea what your talking about EDIT i cant believe i agree with zed ( no offence but we differ on so many things lol)
  13. i have already said one made by someone trained in such things would be better than a bought one LOL but your own example of how to do it would be well rather less effective than a bought one( again i challenge you to actually make one and then compare it to the 4 i own pre made) OH MY GOD of course if you buy one a different colour to the enviroment your going into it would be really bad. Strange thing is they make them to suit the general enviroment your going into ( so it will be good but not as good as one made by a profesional sniper who has had practice guidance in such things OBVIOUSLY ) now i am pretty sure if the russians do make suits ( i dont know most countries in the western world do make these things for hunters) they are smart enough to make a good suit to match there own bloody terrain . But ok you guys win i cant debate with people who have no grounding in simply logic... Edit the topic is should they be craftable only well my initial point was in reality they can be bought so that sums it up but i made the mistake of answering points made by people who wouldnt know there penis from a gun of any sort....
  14. And we are back to everyone being fully versed in making effective camo yes one made by a sniper is better one made by a normal person who has never had to do anything of the sort results in as has been posted green clothes with gras and branches attached these guys take there time and have learnt the the best ways to apply there gear to make it effective. I challenge a city guy who has never hunted to go make there ghillie suit and ill compare it to a bought one in its effectiveness.(as this type of person is most likely what our survivours are well i dont recall rocket giving us a background but if looking at general pop numbers and make up city people make up the lions share its strange how high density cities havee more people than country or fully trained military people simple concept is it not??) LOL you guys need to get a grip on reality honestly its like talking to a pre school child that doesnt have any idea of what your saying just keeps saying no NO NO as children have a tendancy to do ...
  15. Yeah and that makes great camo does it?? it may be good enough and i dont debate that but many people here are saying a self made one would be better camo than a bought one ( your example shows how it wouldnt) I said we should be able to craft our own suits and be able to find pre made ones perhaps actually read my posts lol but your right i am getting frustrated by guys throwing quite honestly rubbish ideas out with no thought given at all.
  16. please elaborate on why its only craftable?? i mean i am no expert on how often pre made ones are used in russia( im not a russian hunter) you may be right they may not be able to buy them in russia honestly i dont know the answer to that one. but id imagine they would have them also (as realisticly as they would have american style weapons like the m4)
  17. Oh and every survivour happens to be a fully trained sniper again the use of these suits is far more common amongst hunters ( even those guys at times make there own ) do a little reasearch on bought ones there actually quite good (ps and many of these supliers actually supply to the miltary also ) I spent 8 years in the military in Australia i certainly wasnt a sniper or even a marksman but enough of the elitist bull lol cause ya just sound ill informed ...
  18. hence why as a loot spawn you make it extremely rare lol as it would be in real life you aint going to find them every where balance the item with real factors not fictional ones..
  19. ok i can definately roll with your second disadvantage as well they are stuffy slightly cumbersome ( perhaps some mobility disadvantage) the first no back pack though sorry she is a loser you can buy them with back packs in the suit (it would be much smaller though so you could make it say a 20 slot back pack or something. But if you craft your own you could easily make it include your current back pack . The making your own would make it better is subjective(depends on your skill with camoflauge ideas its not as easy as chucking a few branches in some netting on ya cloths and way you go. Bought premade suits are actually very VERY well done infact the types of suits you see portrayed in arma 2 /3 are actually to my eyes apear to be the pre made bought type. Do a little research on the topic . I am not trying to be an antagonist they want to portray this game authenticly only way to do it is use realistic ideas not i think it should be this way cause i dont like it otherwise....

    A few things regarding ammo

    the only real ill of armour piercing would be it would be almost impossible to find and you would want to keep it away hidden so you dont accidentally start using it on bambi characters running around in tshirt and jeans.. Oh the misery of having spent 3 days looking for armour piercing and i just wasted it all in a stupid shoot out that only needed standard rounds at best ....
  21. not exactly true these suits can be bought pre made for hunters in general patterns but yes a good sniper will indeed create his own using the materials from the terrian he is going to be hiding in ( can we stop with half truths please). Its isnt only the army that uses them infact id make a leap and say hunters use of suits actually is more common than military use of said items lol

    Types of Guns: Read if you don't know the typesi

    wait what so there are no single fire bolt action rifles?? do they not count as rifles as your rifle section says can be semi auto and automatic.. Damn you learn something new every day all these years i have thought i had a rifle but i dont...
  23. Ok i am not a big ghillie suit wearing sniper type guy ( i dont play bandit) but this thread has some very big hate for this sort of players lol yeah the mod had far to many of them ... Id say they should be able to be find as a full item (extremely rare item) and it be nice if they could be crafted as well ( you know wearing one helps you not get shot to even when your not a sniper dude right lol ) I have to ask the people who said should have penalties for wearing them what these penalties would be?? one mentioned heat um yeah ok in a cold section of russia wearing something warm is a problem ????? sounds like a bonus to me and these other ideas of penalties for wearing please step up make some realistic suggestions ( cause frankly it just sounds like guys wanting to penalize guys for no good reason other than they dont like it)

    Meele system similar to MnB?

    do we have to fight over MB and chivalry really come on guys and to be honest id be uber happy if dayz melee was half as good as either of them but i doub they will go anywhere near as far with the melee as these games (seeing in those games it was the major part of the game Dayz less so ). But 1 thing i am sure we all agree on it be nice if they improved melee in Dayz .... 4 directional attack and 4 way directional block as simple as they can do it would just add so much to this feature( first fix desync hit detection then do more lol )
