Add proper ballistics and wind. I'd love to see these armchair commandos try to manually adjust for wind that changes midway through their shot. GLHF. You'll never see a single sniper that isn't deadly serious about it.

Pending Changelog: Experimental Branch: 0.42.116002
Sencha replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
Please fix poisoning of food and water. Spraying disinfectant into water bottles or on bananas and apples does nothing. You can't even fill a water bottle with alcohol tincture. I am disappoint. Also add the ability to use syringes on disinfectant, and then inject it into oranges and people. And add antifreeze and let us do the same with that. Ethylene glycol (antifreeze) is colourless, odorless, and slightly sweet. Poisoning leads to intoxication and vomiting, followed by metabolic acidosis, cardiovascular dysfunction, and finally acute kidney failure. It can be treated by intravenous ethanol solutions (syringe+alcohol tincture+IV), or by consuming strong alcohol over a period of time. (add bottle of vodka) -
Update Rev. 0.36.115535 (Experimental branch)
Sencha replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements
Does this update fix the exploding pants bug? Yesterday when I fell off of the ship, my pants broke, as well as everything inside of them, but nothing else got damaged. In addition, not 10 minutes ago I got shot at and my pants exploded, damaging some of my ammo. Not shot, mind you. They didn't hit. I got shot AT, and I got suppressed, and that was apparently too much for my cargo pants to handle. -
A fun thing to do is to stand in a place where you know people server hop, like the second floor room in a police house, and when someone hops in, you shoot/axe him and steal his stuff.

Why Mouse Acceleration in First Person desperately needs Fixing #2 *Long Post*

OP, we're going to have to see that video of you spinning around with a backpack and a barbell. -
M4 in your hands and Mosin on your back, or visa versa?
Sencha replied to medium00rare's topic in General Discussion
Neither, I keep a pistol in my pocket so people can't see that I'm armed. Because running around with a mosin or an m4 is just begging to be shot on sight. The HK417 is basically an HK416 that fires a larger round, and the HK416 is basically just an M4 of overall higher quality manufacturing. It's actually more like a G36 than an M4, but the technicalities of piston systems would probably go right over your head. Sufficed to say, to the layman it looks like an AR15, it functions like an AR15, but it's German made, so it's better than an AR15. When it comes down to German vs American weaponry, you always go with German. -
Of course you did. Because the goal of this game is to become a soldier in camo gear who goes around murdering people. So predictable, so boring.

Whats the Burlap Sack For ? Here is the Answer !
Sencha replied to Ozar's topic in General Discussion
Blame the cunts in this game. You give up, they take your stuff and probably kill you. Even if it was 50-50, which it fucking isn't, you'd still have to go find new gear. Just letting them kill you saves you from having to go along with their homoerotic fantasies for 10 minutes before getting to the finding new gear part. It's sad, yes. But there's no incentive for surviving yet, and there's no reason not to kill everyone you see. So there's no reason to give up, other than if you happen to be curious as to what kind of fucked up shit they're going to do to you. If you really want to keep your gear, the best way to do that is to put your hands up and hope they don't shoot you immediately, and then promptly combat log. -
Rolling Changelog: Stable Branch: 0.32.114557
Sencha replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
Pre-Alpha. Translation: No one gives a shit if you don't hit your targets. The purpose of the game is to fix bugs, not tweak performance and fine tune the shooting mechanics. Leave that shit for the Beta. -
What have you been doing in-game while awaiting patches: Honesty please.
Sencha replied to capt. beefsteak's topic in General Discussion
I found that one a couple of times. The one I was looking forward to reading was The Aeneid. And then I found it and got all excited. Open it up, it's the fucking original in Latin. Why?! Who is this for? Who is this fantasy person that likes to play DayZ, likes reading books IN DayZ, and also speaks Latin?! -
Bunnies are also invisible to other people. If you see one, no one but you can see it. They're clearly demons.

What have you been doing in-game while awaiting patches: Honesty please.
Sencha replied to capt. beefsteak's topic in General Discussion
I went in search of Valhalla with my geared up character. Going out like a warrior. After that I made a new character, a black man, decked out in a bright yellow raincoat and a yellow bandana, and started filling his pockets and backpack with nothing but bananas. Whoever kills/robs me is in for the most racist moment of their lives. -
Suggestion: Clan Insignia for shoulder sleeves and hats/caps; tattoos even
Sencha replied to laughs's topic in Suggestions
You mean a picture of a penis on the shoulder? Because that's what people are going to do with a system like this. That and swastikas. -
Pretty simple suggestion. Stones should be found everywhere where stones are normally found (hint: the ground). Right now they're fairly rare, and you find them inside houses. (wat?) Also, let us take a stone in the hand, and bash someone with it. OHK if you score a headshot. Not like the knife where you have to press space to put your hands up and do the little tippy-tappy walk. You just stand there with the stone in your hand, and then WHACK! It's a good, solid strategy that worked wonders for early hominids.

Sure beats boxing the zombies in terms of overall effectiveness.

All the proof I need that whatever you felt was psychosomatic. That's not how opiates work. It's physically impossible for you to go through withdrawal after only using it once. Unless you're allergic to it either nothing happened, or it was all in your head.

All this talk about emasculation and weakness makes me think OP is a bit insecure in his own sexuality. What's the matter, OP? Did you get a semi from seeing Hasselhoff running towards you during the Baywatch intro and now you don't know how to feel about it?
-
Please don't upload stuff like this to the interwebz again. There is enough inane bullshit and call of duty fragvids on there as is. We don't need any more pointless garbage.

I found Heart of Darkness. Awesome book.
-
No, it would make the game too easy. There's no morality in this game. No one would care that they're eating manflesh. It's just a game. So no one that wasn't roleplaying would ever bother finding something else to eat, they'd just shoot another player and get their grub on, alternatively visit the little cliff outside of Kamyshovo and eat the people who suicided there to get a better spawn. Realism has to take the backseat to gameplay balance in this case.

Any piece of clothing you associate with bandits?
Sencha replied to Mays (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Any and all military gear. -
I have several reasons for this actually. Not just to get a better spawn. You could have gear to distill seawater to get potable water, we already have the portable stove, so just add a tube, and some bottles and you could easily distill seawater to remove the salt. Then you could use the salt when cooking rice! Also, filling a water bottle with seawater, and then laughing from beyond the grave as whoever killed you tries to drink it and gets dehydrated. Imagine it. Some random player is on the verge of dying of thirst, so they kill the first player they see in order to steal their water, and it's saltwater, and they die! Hah! Instant karma, right there.

I did, but all I found was for the mod version. Since this suggestion forum was added recently, I didn't see the harm in making a new thread.

Brighter nights, more colourful nights, and reduce a day to 8 hours with a summertime type cycle. 3/4th daytime, 1/4th nighttime. 6 hours of daytime, 2 hours of nighttime. Make nights more like this:
