Theres a lot of geat suggestions to look at here.

I would love to see this in game along with the PPSH

No one is screaming at the top of their lungs ADD THESE GUNS! Rather people are just posting cool litle guns that would be fun to use in the game.

THIS IS NOT A RANT POST Before you look at my post and go “DAYUM another rage post” I want to point out there is a solutions section to this post at the bottom under the TL;DR. I bring up the issue of people abusing in game mechanics so severely to the point of turning people off the game. Please leave your suggestion as to how to prevent the problematic part of DayZ from destroying the enjoyment of other and turning people off the game. I am not talking about silly stuff like duplication, but rather mass exploitation to gain an ingame advantage to fight an attacker or become unkillable turning the game into a shooting galery. YES THIS GAME IS IN ALPHA, BUT IT'S IMPORTANT TO BRING UP ISSUES SO THEY CAN BE DEALT WITH BY THE COMMUNITY AND DEVELOPMENT TEAM BACKGROUND: DayZ is damn fine game, addicting, thrilling and very psychologically scary. With so many people seeing videos about DayZ and buying the game on Steam it is expected that a few bad apples will come here and there. The problem is not those bad apples, but rather the worms that fall out of those bad apples the cancer of the apple tree that is DayZ. I am a well experienced DayZ player I am calm headed and it takes a lot to set me over the edge, but the kind of experiences that I faced today that many people are challenged with really hit me hard. The patheticness of some players is pretty amazing on how badly they ruin the game for themselves and others. Combat logging, Ghosting, Server Hopping and my favourite duplication are some of the many exploits in this game but that's child's play. The stuff I witnessed go down today really made me think “How low is the bar on morality and sportsmanship in this game?” STORY: While traversing through Electro I see a couple of fully armed guys and I decided lets go make friends with them so I can loot in peace. I walk over there and introduce myself in the northern fire station lobby when 3 fully armed players come out guns pointed at me with a man in an orange raincoat yelling “GET ON THE FLOOR!!!!” I calmly responded “Why would I get on the ground, so you can shoot me easier? Yea, no you have to catch me first.” I turn and run as some 60 shots fly over my head. I sprint away as my friend Tez is logging into the fire station next to the church and I ask my Tez to put some bullets into their brain parts he obliges. I decided what the hell might as well run back and so I head on back but this time they moved. My Tez radios me and says they repositioned in the log cabin to the west. I move over there and there they are, all 4 of them at the front of the cabin I walk up to them as they begin yelling at me to drop on the ground. I told them to bugger off and soon enough some 100+ bullets from 2 M4’s and an SKS fly near me. I tell my Tez tez their god awful shots it's an easy kill for you, but he didn't have an angle on them. I decided to run back to the log cabin to taunt them a little and sure enough there they are on the front porch steps and quickly enough they begin firing. I begin running around the cabin telling them to kill me, shoot me come on do it. They fail at shooting me so they try to yell at me to get on the floor so I responded with “Yeah, hell no” as they scrambled back into the cabin in fear of my mighty fist of fury. I see them huddled up in the cabin so I decided to huddle behind it, I grabbed my laptop and 3.5mm male-to-male audio jack I plug my laptops audio out to my Microphone in. I pull up youtube and find the Benny Hill Theme then crank up my volume and turned on my VOIP. As Benny Hill’s Theme is being blasted over VOIP I decided to pull a stupid and sit at the doorway of the cabin crouched just below the windows. I then start opening and closing the door with each and every time the man inside shooting at nothing through the door. I asked if they had given up yet and received the cold shoulder. I run around the cabin some more then took a small peek through the window. Three of them gone, logged off and disappeared in the sunset with the 4th one guarding their combat logging bodies. I turned off the music and switched back to my main mic walk into the house no fist up, look the man straight in the eye with his gun pointing at me and asked him this. “This is not fun for anyone, you are cheating yourself, your buddies, myself and any other dayz player of this game. Why do you play like this, what satisfaction do you get out of ruining the game for everyone? Is it really worth it never dying just leaving if you are scared by even a fresh spawn like myself. DayZ is a fun game but with the cancer that is people like you it ruins the game, please explain to me what satisfaction do you get out of this, how is this fun for anyone?” He stared at me not uttering a word and then shot me dead. “You must be proud, go along and play this game like COD go ahead and cheat yourself of $30.” Was my final response. “Tez lets jump off this server, they probably looted it to all hell.” I said as I explained to him what just happened. Se we jump ship onto another server I make a run back to Elector while Tez repositions on top of sniper hill awaiting my return to the city. I make it up sniper hill to meet with him when he tells me these 4 people down there at the firestation. I drop my FOV to the minimum and take a look towards the fire station muttering “Holy Shit... That's them!” The same orange raincoat, the same 2 green M$’s the same TTSKO pants and ruined checkered shirt, same clown mask and everything. Tez lines up a shot on one of the guys and strikes him in the chest taking him down instantly with his Mosin. There buddies quickly huttle in the fire station like scared rabbits. I run down the mountain while Tez takes some more shots at their heads, I find the body of the guy but he's not dead so I grabbed all his crap and put one .357 magnum shot straight into his brain parts. Confirmed kill, now with an M4 and plenty of ammo I began making my way towards the fire station and opened the first door only to be greeted by a good 010 bullets, but not one hit me. I duck and go to third person to look around the corner and there I see 2 guys leaving the server. I decided to leave the other guy in the fire station because he had the advantage and I already had one of their buddies entire collection of gear. I make my way up to Tez when bullets start falling near me from the fire station, the same guy I let live. I huddle about 25 meters form Tez as we begin fighting back against the man in the fire station shooting at us. We were in a stalemate for a good 3 minutes, i'm out of ammo when I hear Tez yelling at me that heres reloading next to him, I look over just to see the Clown Mask guy I saw in the fire station leaving the server, now popping into existence. “I'm dead” Tez yells as the clown masked man shoots him a good 20 times throughout his entire body. I look around and see at the green house about 50 meters away and see a black man walking out of the wall wearing that same orange raincoat. I striped all my cloths and walked over to the clown masked man while he stared at me. I pressed F2 and he just looked at me and said “You fagots killed our friend, you shot my buddy down there. You need to pay you little shits.” He puts a bullet in my leg and forced me to sit there with my hands on my head. Curious about what will happen I stayed and I see this naked fresh spawn walk up the hill, the guy Tez shot earlier. He grabbed his gear and walked over to me and in his ever so pre-pupic voice said “This is the little shit hacker that was following us at the cabin, stuff is fat face full of rotten fruit.” Soon enough I am starving, thirsty sick and have broken legs. They laugh telling me to get good that I am below them that they are better than me. I decided to leave the server, but before I did I gave them one last bit of dialogue “I feel sorry for you” and poof I left the server. TL;DR The exploits in this game are not a problem, but rather the people who use them. I came across a group of 4 children who felt so threatened by a group of fresh spawns that they decided to combat log away from my fist of fury. I changed to another server at around 14 players and saw the same group of guys running to the fire station. My friend, Tez shot one and I grabbed his loot while proceeded to the fire station. He almost killed me, but not before I saw his two buddies leaving the server. I decided to help aid Tez up the hill in shooting this guy. I exhausted all my ammunition while shooting at the one guy left in the fire station. We then are killed by the two buddies who left the server and rejoined behind us, they had been exploiting the numerous bugs in DayZ, so how do you deal with them. THE PROBLEM: Many players in this game mas exploit the systems in DayZ ruining the balance and hurting the community of this game. Many people have been turned off from playing the game because of the people who mass exploit the system, the toxic part of Dayz. What solution would you offer to minimize the toxic part of the DayZ community? SOLUTIONS: Bandits, KOS, Torture, these are the things that make this game amazing to play. Giving myself and many other players an amazing experience, but some people use these tactics along with mass exploitation of current build to feel powerful. In doing so these player alienate many people who enjoy the DayZ experience not only potentially hurting the sale value of this game but also tearing apart the veteran community of people who came from the mod. Many people have stopped playing DayZ altogether because of the current exploits, so as a community lets develop solutions to stop the alienating and hurting of this game from these certain players. A) Report Button, Yes have a report button to report players using these tactics, and if a player has a certain negative reputation disallow them from the regular servers and throw them in cheater servers. That way you segregate the problematic part of the community from the fair ones of DayZ. This brings along some problems, say a streamer has a large following if enough people come together and report him it would cheat the system, same thing with people on YouTube like FrankieonPCin1080p. This would not a viable option because of the amount of abuse that can spur from this. B ) Blocking Players, The ability to block a player(s) so as you don't play on the same server would be something I want. Say you decide to join a server and someone you have on your block list is in it, have a little message pop up that says xxx is in here or when said blocked player joins your server you get a message that say xxx has joined your server. I would love this for many streamers who are stream sniped would sure enjoy this aswell, it would be a benefit to the community. The problem is you would have to know the name of the person you're blocking, if you are killed by aman in a glitch who didn't show his name who do you know to block? You would have to introduce the system of showing who killed you which I doubt the devs want to put in. Ultimately there is a problem in dayz and that is come of the people who play are a cancer to the game, turning off players and hurting the games reputation. My solutions have flaws in them which stop them from being being only a benefit, but also a negative too. My question to you is what solution do you have to solve the problem of mass in game exploiting? I will add your solutions to the list of solutions I currently have. Thank You For Reading Kyle

I belive there should be suttle improvements to your character but nothing that makes your physical better than the other like extra runing etc...

I was bored overwatching NEAF just interested in watching the fresh spawn migration when I started toying with the resolution options. I found that increasing the Rendering Resolution will make the game look prettier and make seeing other easier. Just wanted to share this little bit of information with you felow forumers. 100% Rendering Resolution: 200% Rendering Resolution:

The trees in the distance are clearer in the 200% picture rather tahn in the 100% picture where its pretty blocky.

That would be a nive addition to the game

Waldo is not in here, but look at the trees in the distance.

This is my favourite suggestio, great idea of implementing the M1 Garand into the game.

We have all heard that base building will be in the game eventually, and rocket even got the persistent containers finally working. My question to you is what kind of base would you want and or build? I would love to see underground structures like the ones in the vietnam war: EDIT: I didn't expect this thread to turn into this, but hell it's made my day, great Posts.

Please put this in!

For me it depends on the situation, sometimes trying to talk to someone is as good as getting killed, for example I was looking for red dot for my M4 up at NWAF when I see a guy up in the firestation. I take cover and quickly make my way to the fire station he is climbing the step so I hide by the lockers in the lobby of the station. As he walks out I see an M4 and Mosin on his body so I take aim and put 4 bullets in his back, out but not dead. I make my way to his body handcuff him and then gave him a bandage, epinephrine and a saline bag. Once I did that I told the guy I wasn't here to kill him but if he pulled a stupid I wouldn't hesitate to kill him. He obliged and I searched his gear and found a red dot scope. While on other times if I hold the advantage I try to talk to people and be friendly. It all depends on the situation. I don't think people who shot on sight are terrible, but people who shot on sight others that are no threat like fresh spawns are the ones that annoy me. I had a portable gas stove and gas container sitting in the middle of electro with a fire going, I hooked up my laptop audio out to my mic in and was playing the campfire song song. I had a small cult of 8 people sitting around the fire ll sitting when a terrible player came up into the pub about 50m away and grabbed his M4 the shot 200+ rounds killing us all, those people are bad. TL;DR Most people who Shot on Sight are not bad, it depends on the situation but people in advantageous spots or who face unarmed (Not including ones trying to punch you) and kill hrm are terrible at the game, plain and simple.

I was at the shipwreck at berezino and took this fellow by surprise inside the sleeping quarters, I forced him back down the ship where I told him to strip. My buddy 1 watched him while my buddy #2 grabbed all his gear (He was a fresh spawn) including his backpack, M4 and can opener. I like holding people up, I don't like killing them.

I would love to fight in the city, but I am fortunate for I have a powerful rig that can handle it while others don't, so please do not use the city for you will segregate many many people.

Thank you, this same thing happened with my other post, the topic of rape came up and ruined the entire thread I had to ask the mods to shut it down, thanks for help.

That happaned with my other post too, the topic of rape came up and I had to ask the mods to shut down the post.

I was browsing reddit an came across this lovely gentlemans idea of applying pressure to wounds, whatdo you think? "Once you're bleeding, there will be an option to apply pressure to your wounds. This will put away anything you're holding, and both your hands will be pressing against your body. During this period of time, you can jog but can't sprint. If action is cancelled before bleeding stops, there will be an increase in blood lost for a short period of time because of build-up (not sure if it's accurate, please correct). Bleeding will stop after a few minutes. If the item you're holding before you start applying pressure is anything less than Pristine, there will be a chance of an infection, varying accordingly to item quality. What's your opinion of this?" u_TouchmyTralala Link to original post: http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1z9du0/suggestion_applying_pressure_to_wounds/ What do you think of this idea, I think it would be a fantastic idea and I would love to see it make it into the game.

Yes, I can get 30 in electro and churno but the apartment sometimes drop me to 25

I was in Berenzino having a gay ol' time in the piano building when I hear a man come from behind me. I panicked for he had an SKS and was shooting it not just 5 minutes ago drawing his gun. I panicked and bolted for the door with my empty Mosin on my back an a half eaten can of beans. As I am running around the house trying to lose this man I hear in voice coms "FREEZE!" This only scared me more for I thought he wanted me to stop so as he may shoot me more easily (That is something fresh spawn killers often do). As I managed to lose him I made my way westward further into the heart of Berenzino to begin looting again in peace. As I came to the soccer field I noticed the door to the red building was closed meaning maybe it wasn't looted. I decided to loot the yellow house first so I would get all the loot. As I am leaving the yellow house I notice the red house buildings door is now open. I am confused, maybe I saw it wrong so I continue going westward when my heart sinks, I see the SKS man. I decided I will try to intimidate him with my mosin, so as I see him looting the supermarket I decide to wait a little more west near the second red house he was bound to head there. My plan was perfect, here he was coming with a zombie right on his butt trying every so hard to hit him and then I turned around to notice a zombie following me. I decided to try and punch the zombie to stay quiet but I done fucked and punched the tin wall. I make the sound of a bullet hitting the wall and my stealthy approach was falling apart literally in my bare hands. I see the man coming around the corner investigating the gunshot noise when he notices me. I quickly loop around the tin fence so he can't get a shot on me. I am in third person and so is he so I call over voice coms "Lets agree not to pull the trigger" and I hear him agree with me. I avoided a violent confrontation with another players and we began talking a little bit. My question is what do you say to someone who's fully geared to subdue them or make peace?

Beans for you sir.
