    Desert Eagle

    I'd like there to be an official story. I mean we do have M4s already, but that doesn't necessarily mean US intervention for the sake of Chernarus. What gameplay benefits would it bring? OP pistol with excessively rare ammo?

    Force mic chat: skype etc.. thru dayz?

    So you're saying it won't happen because everyone who plays DayZ has a high quality microphone headset?

    Desert Eagle

    They were obviously joking but the similarity is that none of them belong in Chernarus if we're aiming for an authentic feel.

    keep standalone CLEAN!!!

    I despise the way you type and believe your English, at least written, is not near as bad as you make it out to be, but I agree fully.

    We're not talking on radios ingame though. I do hope when we can that we're audible to others near us, but as of now we're not using radios. Imagine everything the OP says is easy to work does work. Then you're chasing some guy and over direct you hear, "When are you coming to sleep?" from some guy's girlfriend? Wouldn't that just be ridiculous? There's a reason no game forces this. No game I'm aware of anyway that has any amount of popularity.

    shotguns

    I'm sure they will be unpopular among the community as they are with the mod. They lack range, and range is how you win fights if the gunplay is going to be anything like ArmA.
  7. Diggydug (DayZ)

    Consider prioritizing this in upcoming fixes.

    I don't care what ArmA 3 Breaking Point does...they also can't punch with their fists can they? Obviously you care who starts with a shovel or our fists. Why do you keep mentioning realism? I'm just going to ignore that. You can't argue for realism here and not there.

    42 Sacriel just got hacked

    Well that ain't right. Ah well I was just trying to throw a possible answer out there, I don't know what went on truly so I'll stop with my ideas. He got some infamy and that's all he really wanted. BIS can keep you from playing their games. Steam could get rid of your whole library if they wanted. Living in the US has nothing to do with. You agreed to it.

    Arm distance and weapon distance are not what I was referencing. It's the one I'm actually okay with them changing, I even said this already. You said, That's when you pulled the "realism card". The game is obviously going to have some realism going on, that's what we all fell in love with in the mod, but it's not aiming for the most realistic experience ever so there's no need to use it in any argument to support your ideas. I'm just tired of so many suggestions having "realism" to back them up only because it's convenient for that specific suggestion. Ignoring all the unrealistic aspects that make the game playable.

    If only that vernacular would fade away.

    42 Sacriel just got hacked

    First, I think the OP meant Rocket (or BIS) could ban the guy from the standalone. Not issue a VAC ban. Second, isn't it possible that someone was watching his stream, spawned where he was, and killed him? I'm not sure how that works but apparently it's a thing people do. Just a thought, I don't watch Sacriel or any streams.

    "Private" gear farming servers are now a thing

    DayZ Alpher and people are willing to rent a server for the lootz? Well that's a new low. Laughable even. I hope these guys are banned from the standalone. Spare the rod, spoil the child in a sense.

    Map

    You have to find a map. Store-ish buildings I know have them and cars can have them in the front seat and likely the back. Maps work different here than they do in ArmA as well. You have to put them on a hotkey spot and use the corresponding hotkey. A full map might exist, I'm not sure, but typically they come as sections of Chernarus. So you might be in Zelengorsk and find a map of Southeast Chernarus, so don't be confused if that's the case. I hear you can only use markers if you have a GPS as well but I'm not even 100% sure GPSs are in the game currently. ______________ Familiarize yourself with the map and use DayZDB if you're truly lost.

    The maps not finished.

    Yes. Por favor. Use spoiler tags if you have a lot. I enjoy pics from explorers.

    long range zoom in bug / exploit

    Well you learned something. No harm done.

    Advice for New Babies!

    Charcoal is if you're sick to your stomach because of something you ate, I believe. I've yet to have fruit make me sick. Are you 500% sure it wasn't a bit ripe? Then again I'll probably learn from experience if it is true. In DayZ when unboiled water could infect you and I didn't know, I never became infected. Someone mentioned it on the forums and my next swig was infectious. DayZ gods are cruel.

    Then don't say we should be striving for realism. This also isn't ArmA 2 and is not a military sim. STALKER games have bullet physics but it's far from a simulator.
  18. I don't know what to make of it. This is my first time hearing about it. I'm not aware of what the admins are capable of for the SA just yet but that's interesting.

    1. No. Melee weapons are plentiful. 2. Slightly, sure, but it's not that big of a bother to me. 3. No. 4. No. This isn't Mount and Blade and we're not aiming for every aspect to be super realistic. Stop pulling the realism card. You want realism only when it's convenient, you're not complaining that we can run nonstop and down gallons of water in one sitting are you; stop complaining that waking up on the beach without a weapon isn't realistic. People already punch each other as it is anyway when they see another fresh spawn. Weapons have never improved those relations.

    I am a cold-blooded murderer

    My only real issue with your playstyle, assuming you don't do it to be a dick, is that you're not playing to survive, you're playing to kill others. Out the door with "survival" because you, and others like you, don't care if you die. Gives you a chance to respawn and spam hack with an axe until you come upon a gun. Death needs to be more punishing, if you ask me, then you can tell me how awesome it is. ;) Some of us like to survive a long time, believe it or not.

    Lost in the mountains

    You keep on runnin' until you dehydrate. Sounds like you've gone beyond the map where it's just desolate hills and miles of death ahead. Your only salvation is finding our way back. If you were heading west when you discovered this place, turn east. Heading north? Go south. That's if you are in debug basically, I've wondered if it was in the Standalone or not.

    I just want to wave.

    The true reason behind KoS

    At least he's honest. One redeeming quality.
  24. Diggydug (DayZ)

    Can't run DayZ!

    I'm no expert, but Steam may be unhappy with that. I've heard tales of people forcing a refund and Steam reacting quite harshly.
  25. Diggydug (DayZ)

    The true reason behind KoS

    Call it what you want, but survival isn't difficult in the mod or the standalone, I hope that changes. The KoS bunch of players are doing it because they're not lacking in supplies. A day's worth of supplies is plenty. Two days is bountiful. Ammo? Check Food? Check Drink? Check Scary outfit? Check Find a perch and have fun. When I want to kill players I play on servers/gamemodes for it and have fun doing it, I don't play DayZ to murder because I find joy in other things. I'm aware people do, and I expect it, but when they try to justify it and bring themselves up for it, that's when I facepalm. By killing everyone not him or his pals he's more likely to live? Maybe if the guns had proper audio that would change but sadly that stands true in the standalone. _______ Did you play the mod? These guys aren't in it for loot in the standalone. I've had a guy go completely out of his way to try and sneak up on me and gun me down, and I still don't know why, considering the loot he had and how inconvenient it was. I said it months and months ago and I'll say it again, they do it to make people mad and enjoy it. Otherwise they'd play Wasteland or (at the time) DayZ mods made for PvP.
