TEST_SUBJECT_83

IMO, the OP is right, and friendly servers are NOT what dayz is about. It's like wanting to be friendly a CoD death match. It just doesn't fit the lore, or game's feel and presence. Because until more is implemented, it is basically a CoD death match.

2 reasons why bodies disappear after 10 min. 1st and most important reason is performance. Cleaning up bodies more frequently helps the servers run smoother. 2nd, it's called permadeath! You are not supposed to get your shit back....period!

my favorites and history still work ;)

Been playing the Standalone for about 2 1/2 weeks now and it's one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had and cant wait for more to be added. Today I just bought the Humble Bundle for 6$ and been playing Epoch and absolutely loving it!! Its so much fun with everything there is to do. Other than the clunky inventory system it's very much the same, just a little less pretty. I highly recommend it to anyone thats enjoying the Standalone and never got into the mod.

Awwwww! Sounds like you need to change you tampon.

I don't know about that? Getting healthy is easy. Just make sure you eat quite a bit before filling up on water. Or fill up on water, then run around for 5min, then eat until healthy. These work for me every time!

"By Arslan Tufail Arslan is a competitive Tekken and Call of Duty player and crushes pretty much everyone at the office in these games." LOL! I don't trust 'em!

Click the middle box. Just look at the picture below your first post.

The Wumpus said it best. It does work if you've been scratched by a zombie and you character is moaning. Just think of the "Sick" status as it working. Like Wumpus said while it's working it will say 2 to 4 times that your wounds look cleaner. Then the last message tells you your wounds are cleaned. That and antibiotics have worked every time when my character is moaning. PS: Just don't drink it by accident! ;)

He didn't say it was an advantage. He said he liked the way it looks. Im sure he understands and even agrees to a certain point. He just has to get over wearing ruined clothes...or deal with the consequences when they get patched.

Because this game offers what no other game has ever done before. Pure absolute freedom!

On one hand I completely agree with you, on the other you still have a choice, and if you choose to run around with holes in your clothes then there will be holes in your clothes. We all know what happens when you have holes in your clothes and you put things in your pocket.

Yes, and whatever else you want to use it for as well, as long as it's lore friendly IMO. I agree a censored text mechanic would work great. I was a little overboard with how upset I am about it. I just really wanted to start leaving treasure maps along the coast for fresh spawn to find.

I agree. I dont even need a compass anymore because the sun is always in the same place. I have seen one sunrise and one sunset, and it rained for me once for like 10 seconds in my whole 150plus hours of playing. But with nighttime basically broken with gamma exploiters, I can't actually enjoy playing at night without knowing someone else can see in the dark while I can't.

Of course we would ALL LOVE gore in DayZ, but that is a later on down the road feature. But since you brought it up, I would like to see things like the axe getting stuck in a zombies skull and having to press LMB again to pull it out. Same thing with a screwdriver to the eye, or a bayonet to the gut with you gun. With a the chainsaw being implemented, actual limbs being sawed off is a must. I would like to see the pliers used to remove bullets from your wound. I would love to see a slit throat animation if you manage to sneak up behind someone (most likely a FPP server thing) Anything to make DayZ more realistic!

I play both because I have to. 1. there is barley any full 3PP:OFF servers 2. everybody else is so I have to too or else I will be at a disadvantage.

This really pisses me off that we can't have nice things because there will ALWAYS be douchbags to fuck it up! This could have been a really fun mechanic. I was planning on hiding fully upgraded weapons or a backpack FULL of gear somewhere then I was going to write treasure maps hinting the location for some lucky survivor to have something fun and unexpected to do. Plus I was going to leave 10 or 20 of the same maps for multiple people to find and possibly fight over. There is shit to do in DayZ right now unless you use your imagination, and the pen and paper could have added some fun to the alpha in it's current state. I'm extremely disappointed that this is gone.

I never have serious problems, but today that same thing happened to me. Today was screwy for me and my crew today for sure.

What if they reworked the camera for 3rd person? So when you reach a wall the game realizes it and doesn't let you look up to see over the wall. Or if it's a corner there is just an invisible wall that the camera can't go through. This is something that just literally popped in to my head so Im sure theres some reason why this wouldn't work, so be nice. :)

Because people forgot how to just have fun.

No shadows? I might as well play with the gamma all the way up at night too? Lol! I think it looks horrible without shadows, but thats just me.

Wearing damaged clothing is dumb when it comes to surviving. Having pristine clothes can be the difference between just making it out of a shootout or dying, or even going unconscious so someone can revive you instead of dying. If you want to run around with clothes with holes in them, you should expect to loose some stuff. This is a survival horror simulator. Don't expect to play it in a "silly" way without paying for it.

If you turn PP to "very low" than it wont touch your framrate and you will still get that slight blur effect when you run. PP is to much for me when it's set to anything high.

That would be amazing to just hold down a key and you look at your compass for as long as you hold it down, even with a weapon in hands!

While I agree that a game can't be 100% realistic, but if your gun is falling off your back, then you obviously would have a ruined piece of gear making that happen, so it would be up to you to fix the problem, or better yet watch yourself and never even let it happen. I would like to see mechanics like that implemented into dayz.
