Would like the "Play" option to work at the main menu.

Anything to make DayZ more realistic and authentic, I'm all for it! ...and gore would be realistic, if done right and can not be over the top at all.

Locked Cabinets, Gun Safes, And Drawers...hidden Key To Open...lock-Picking?
TEST_SUBJECT_83 posted a topic in Suggestions
Title says it all!...almost. Every so often, you may come across a locked safe, cabinet, or drawer that needs a key to open. If you have a crowbar, then the drawer, or wooden cabinet would be easily forced open, but to open the safe a key or combo is mandatory. Unless you find an extremely rare safe cracking kit. The keys would be quite hard to find, needing to spend time in one place is more likely gonna get you spotted. They might be under a bed or in a bowl on a table that's hard to notice right away. It could also be on a nearby zombie that's roaming the same town. Maybe even certain houses are locked that have extra goodies in them and lock-picking could be implemented. I could see a bad ass lock picking system in DayZ. Maybe you can pick locks with bobby pins, but they are harder and take longer and very hard to spot. Or you could find a lock-picking kit to pick any lock, but these kits will be extremely rare. What do you think? -

Awesome! Thank You! Was hoping the silencer sound for the FNX would be fixed. But I can wait. It's gonna be pretty sweet to silently take out zombies! -
How Many Experiments Are There At The Moment?
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
atm...none. -
Server hopping is fucking dumb! This game is about patience. Just stay in a server and when it reset's go to places you know have good loot. Some servers reset every hour for christ sake. Finding loot is easy atm. You people are gonna have such a hard time once improvised weapons and bows and arrows come. Military loot will be "extremely rare" I just laugh at all of you that are dependent on SH to get geared. Lol!

Remove Ability To Zoom When Running(Sprinting)
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to Domod's topic in Suggestions
^This! A million times this! -
I wish they could somehow ban any outside communication now that the walkies work so well. You have a horrible outlook on things. They work better than TP or Skype IMO. You have 6 friends all talking and you want to plan something with one of them, you two just switch channels for a min while you hash it out. When done switch back! I fully support this as the only way to talk to someone else long range. This game is all about realism and authenticity, and there is nothing real or authentic about TS or Skype. I know the majority will disagree with this idea, but id could give a shit, bring on the hate!

non-night vision alternative (light up the town)
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to commanderbash's topic in Suggestions
It would be cool if you somehow needed 4 to 6 people to get the plant running again, forcing players to work together. I support this! -
Remove Ability To Zoom When Running(Sprinting)
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to Domod's topic in Suggestions
Don't think it should be removed, just the headbob should be increased during the zoom when running. IRL it is quite hard to focus on something while sprinting. -
Pending Changelog: Experimental Branch: 0.33.114782
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
Lol! Maybe you should cry some more? Eventually military loot will be "extremely rare" You think it's hard now to find an M4. -
Don't remove it? Just make the jump default to "V" and the slow step over to "Ctrl+V" Make them separate and you get the best of both sides!

The douche baggery that you see in DayZ is alive and well here.

Good idea...not for this game.

This is the problem or part of it that delayed the last patch I think. I have had this happen often myself since then. Seems like the items on a dead body are sometimes permanently tied to the body for some reason. If I take an item off a body it stays visible on the body and on me as well, then if someone else tries to take the same item it will disappear off me and then be both on the body and that person as well. For some reason when someone dies, items are in a limbo state between the looter and the body. You can take items as long as someone else doesn't take the same item that you took, otherwise it will disappear off of you. Just make sure you hide the body after you take what you want.

Ctrl+Z to go prone and takeoff your backpack at once.
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in Suggestions
Flawed?..ok? The animation would be fast of course. It would be the same speed as getting out of prone is now. It would just be an altered version that shows the player grabbing the pack and throwing it over your shoulder as he's standing up. By the time you are standing up strait, the backpack will be already on your back. So I'm sorry if you disliked my suggestion, as for traveling without a backpack being "simply easier" that's one, your opinion and though it may be a valid play style, it's also one that less than 5% of all players partake in. and two, it's not easier to play like vet that doesn't even make sense? Playing without a backpack is like hard mode, only having your pockets is a pain in the ass, unless your RP'ing IMO. Or just looking for more of a challenge. Or if you just wanna look bad ass with that chest holster and a mosin hangin from it! :) -

TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in Suggestions
It wouldn't be still on you, it just would still be tied to you so if there is a server reset, you don't loose you shit. You would still have to pick it back up and put it on and you would not beable to access it either. Having one strap attached to you would only be to stop you from losing it upon a server reset, which you have no way of knowing if it will happen. Server resetting is kinda unfair in a way to snipers that like to lay down for extended periods of time with there backpack off. Thats why I want this idea. -

Let me sneak up behind you and punch you in the head, and when I robbing all your shit while your unconscious for 20 secs you can tell me fresh spawns are not a threat. Until they nerf your fists from knocking someone out from one or two punches to the head, then I will feel safe around an unarmed player.

Hardcore mode suggestions. let it live upto its name. :)
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to -MadTommy's topic in Suggestions
I think alot of those ideas will make it to DayZ eventually...I hope! -
It's all about how you wanna play. I only carry one when Im with my clan. Mainly so we can all sprint. But when I'm lone wolfin' it, I always carry a mosin and a M4. There are plenty of reasons to have both IMO. But like I said, it's up to you.

HOW TO USE THE WEAPON CLEANING KIT- DayZ Standalone
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to TheModernGamer94's topic in New Player Discussion
It would be nice if guns didn't automatically get ruined every time someone is shot with one. -
Two questions from a new player
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to crazykorv's topic in New Player Discussion
No, the colors and words are all we get, but after awhile you'll be used to it. If your new, I would give hardcore mode a try and see how you like it. Hardcore only means First Person Perspective Only, which means no one can look around walls. So don't be intimated by the word "hardcore". Anyways, Im not telling you how to play or telling you something is better for you than the other. Im just saying before you start relying on 3rd person give 1st a try, IMO it makes DayZ 10 times more immersive and realistic...trust me. -
I recommend being able to kill zombies this way
TEST_SUBJECT_83 replied to foreygn's topic in Suggestions
Where did you find that awesome strap? lol! I honestly hate how you can just stick a rifle to your back without a strap or holster of some kind. We should have to find one before being able to carry another weapon or sprint. Or use rope to make a temporary one until you do find a proper one.
