I really like this idea I seen on reddit about cannibalism in dayz. Basically his idea is that your toon must be starving before skinning and consuming human meat becomes available, but once you do you can be cannibalistic any time. Here't the link worth a look. http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/2ikqr3/lets_talk_cannibalism/ Cannibalism... Not even once...

Yes there are hacks but if you look at the images I think these guys were clearly duping, I stumbled across this glitch myself by chance and it's an easy to exploit at the moment. I wouldn't worry about this sort of stuff to much right now though, it's still a really early build and people will be finding exploits constantly until the game is more complete. I take the opinion that the people exploiting the game right now actually indirectly help the development process as the exploits are brought to light early. The best thing to do if you come across exploits like this is to just use the bug tracker and be done with it, trust that it will be fixed in time and be patient.

I'm not certain but am fairly sure they have already been able to fix it, I dont believe you can dupe on the .51 experimental. This is just going from what someone else posted haven't tested it myself.

I can't wait for the final version of the game and there will be zeds everywher like the mod, I remember the zeds at nwaf were crazy the only way I could loot the area by myself was using my truck to run over the horde over and over, not the most stealthy approach but much fun was had. Done this once while a group were looting all stealthy and I scared the shit out of em driving my truck around like a madman

Yes I agree it's not totally realistic, but hey neither is starving or becoming dehydrated in a matter of hours.. Could be tweaked so that it is relative to other hunger/thirst time mechanics in the game.

My suggestion is as follows; If you can manage to keep yourself in the "healthy" state for a long period of time without becoming sick or injured in any way you eventually get a new status "Fit", with the notification "I'm feeling fitter" or "I'm feeling strong". Becoming a "Fit" and "healthy" survivor leads to some small but valuable buffs to your character which would include: greater stamina while running and possibly a small increase in sprint speed, an increase in total health, and also greater resistance to disease. Soon after you loose your healthy status you loose your "Fit" status and your buffs, and will need to start the process over again. The general idea being rewarding players who strive to actually role play and stay alive in game, and its also justifiably realistic. Thoughts?

Oh ok cool, I was under the impression that drinking/filling up from ponds was disabled too

Hunting pack looks bigger to me...

I think the hunting backpack does look bigger... Maybe put a side by side comparison screenshot up

yes, I believe so

I'm just wondering, hows everyone going with the limited water at the moment? I always play on the same server and things are tough at the moment, all beverages have been taken and it hasn't rained for days and I've been keeping hydrated off my supply of caned peaches haha..

What about loot respawning? I usually play on the same server and apart from the rare buildings with loot everywhere, loot doesn't seem to be replenishing even after server restarts. Is this the case for others or maybe it's thr server?

Pretty sure ballistic vests arn't far away, heres a link showing the vest..

May have been windows 95's stash? But yeah persistance is still really rough so you see this sort of stuff ocasionally.Although I notice an sks with a bayonet attached.. I dont think they spawn attached so may well have been placed there...

Ah good times..
