TEST_SUBJECT_83

I really dont find anything wrong with the way it is myself. I would like to see the hands separate, having a right and left hand window, for things like a gun and compass just as an example.

This isn't new news people. Dean has said in the past that he will leave DayZ when he is no longer needed to pursue new projects. He is not just abandoning DayZ, and I cant believe some of the stuff Ive been hearing people say about this. He is still gonna be here for another 10 months or so. Its barely been out for 3, and look at whats come out since then. In another 10 this game will be almost done, core gameplay wise at least. For the people that feel "ripped off"? All I can do is "facepalm" The game isn't even done, not even in Beta and you feel ripped off because the creator is going to leave to start a new project in 10 months or so? He even said he's not going to leave if he is still needed, but he feels and I agree that by then he will have taut Bohemia everything they need to finish off the game and not change it in anyway that goes against his original vision. Why does he need to stick around after that?He doesn't need to hold Bohemia's hand. They agree with him on the way the game should be. So what do you people want? (not directed at you OP) I don't get it? It's a little ridiculous and actually disgusts me to hear how people feel about this so called "news". This is the most amazing thing to come to gaming ever IMO, and you can't appreciate the fact that we are testing a game for someone that respects us enough to actually let us play it in a state that no other developer would just so he can make a game that we all love and helped create, and all most of you do is bitch a moan about how the game isn't the way you want it, and how it's not getting done fast enough. Do you know what it takes to create a game? Let alone go through and consider suggestions and ideas from the forums and Reddit while juggling patches and bug fixes to make the game as enjoyable as he can at the state it is? No! Of course you don't. You haven't got a clue and you just click away that disclaimer every time you play and expect it to be perfect. Then come here and bitch when you get shot from the jail cell without hearing anything. I just can't believe some peoples mentalities about the state of this game and what the expect from Dean. Not directed at OP.

It would be an awesome addition This will be more likely to happen once ragdoll physics come.

New stuff = new bugs. Fix it first!

Anyone notice that you can no longer crawl under the openings in the walls anymore?

agreed!

Read the first line then stopped. The game is not even in Beta yet. How can it be a success or a failure if it's not even finished? It's like reading someones book that there writing thats only half done and saying "man that ending sucked, you've got a shit book here buddy" I just don't understand some peoples way of looking at this game. What the hell do you expect from an unfinished game? The devs are letting us test it to make sure it's good once it's finished. I don't know how much clearer they can word the disclaimer that you just click away every time you start the game.

EDIT: Meant to put this in suggestions. Move if necessary. Thanks So blocking, should it be added to DayZ and how if it were added be implemented? Now that the melee stance has been changed and blocking (not that it did much) is gone it got me thinking, "what if they added blocking to dayZ?" I was thinking that we should have a way to defend ourselves against being punched or attacked with a melee weapon. I don't like the fact that when I'm being punched the only thing I can do it either take it and punch back, or retreat. I think a way to block would not only help defend you from damage, but help melee combat in general from being so lacking and quite boring really. How would it be implemented? I was thinking that you would be able to block at any time with anything in your hands or not. But the effects to you may be different depending on what is in your hands. If you have a rifle in your hands you would just lift it up defensively and your weapon would take the damage. It would of course take a lot of hits to ruin a weapon, but you would have to keep in mind that you are slowly degrading your weapon by blocking with it. If you are empty handed you would just block by raising your fists in front of your head and take only part of the damage instead of the whole amount. You could also use things like books and bags of rice to reduce the damage you would take as well, of course your rice may go from pristine to worn after a fight, but that has no real negative effect other than for realism. Of course if that rice was already badly damaged then it may get ruined therefor not edible any longer. I was thinking that it could be a separate key that you could bind to whatever, but having it by default Ctrl+RMB may be a good fit for immediate use in game allowing you to use it quickly. But, I thought that removing the zoom(RMB) while your fists or weapon is raised and replacing it with block would be the best way to go. I mean do we really need to be able to zoom while having your fist out or weapon raised? Your not going to be scouting ahead when you have an axe raised or when you are ready to punch someone, so once you hit spacebar and your fists or melee weapon is raised RMB would go from zoom to block. What do you all think?

No need to apologize, lol. I like the shove idea as well. I think it would add to the game in a positive way for sure.

It's a bug? To bad, I like it the way it is now. If you have it raised then you are going to hit someone or thing. You cant shoot a gun from the "down" position, why should you be able to swing that way? I dunno, if they change it I wont care to much,but I have to say it kinda makes sense this way.

Thanks, I actually did mention holding up objects to use defensively.

Happens to me too. But started a couple of drivers ago for me, not this last one.

Honestly, there all over...just easy to miss.

Lol! No hacking. Ever since zombies respawn, this just happens sometime now. They chase you and fall off the roof. But dont receive fall damage for some reason. At least the one that chased me off a roof didn't die.

So your suggesting that when the red guy cant see the beans until he walks to where the purple guy is, then the beans will magically appear? I can't be understanding this right? Sorry for the silly drawing...I was bored, lol! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was thinking of something like this, where when you are near any wall or obstacle that the camera will be blocked by an invisible wall/s that prevent you from seeing over or around something when in in 3rd person. Not sure if I even like this idea. Was just trying to come up with an alternative to the OP.

Also would like to have an option to wear hoodies with the hood up over our heads. Something like right clicking the hoodie and getting an option for "hood up" and "hood down" when you already have it up. Same with visors on helmets, and rolling your sleeves up on any shirt with a long sleeve, Been said before but, having sunglasses actually work in FPP.

Bikes should be very common, but ones that ride should be rare. needing to borrow parts from 2 or 3 other bikes to fix up one.

I would like to be able to lower the book with a press of a button. So if you hear something while reading, you can just lower the book real quick, without stopping.

I think it looks great!

Um, the OP was just a sarcastic way of saying that he's leaving for awhile. WTF is wrong with everyone?

I dont get how people just wont get the concept of Alpha. This game is in pre-alpha. The only reason you are playing it at this state is to test it and report bugs. Not to have fun. If you do have fun than great, but not only is there a huge fucking disclaimer on the Steam page before you buy it, but everytime you play DayZ it reminds you that: This is an unfinished game, and you WILL experience lots of bugs and glitches and some game breaking patches. You are lucky to be playing this at all. It would be another year at least before any other developer would let people play a game at this state. The only reason we are is because Dean cares what we think and he wants this to be our game, not just his. How can you be such a selfish child? Grow up and stop whining like a baby that the game isn't the way you want it yet.

It's only fun if you make it fun.

You used to make noises when you got hurt back a month ago or so. Remember? "Uuuhhh!" "Oh fuck that hurts!" and one or two others I think, it's been awhile. When it happened you would make a noise every 5 min. or so and people could hear you if they were near you unless you used alcohol tincture or antibiotics to fix it. Yes it said you were "Sick" while it was fixing you but it still worked. You still got messages telling you that "your wounds are looking cleaner" every few mins until it said "your wounds are now clean" What happened to that mechanic? I think it got removed because people were complaining about it saying you were sick everytime you used tincture or AB. I hope it gets implemented again when sicknesses are properly working and put in game. But yeah, number 1. was in game at one point.
