    Rain will be the new night?

    I was exaggerating. I just hope they won't overdo the overheating.

    That's what I mean.

    Surprisingly not everyone lives in 'murica, but for 16 years of my life I lived in eastern Europe so I might have a better idea of what autumn looks like there than you do. Early autumn can be chilly but frost is rare, weather is more stable and extreme changes of temperature over short period if time do not happen often. Which is why I said that in early autumn a hoodie will be enough 9/10 time. Later on you will have to get something warmer as it will get cold especially in mornings, and - 20 *C is nothing unusual during winter. So hold your horses we're not in minsota the land of the free and home of the sudden temperature changes.

    Of course not, only 2 hours of running (that is if you don't overheat) to find the raincoat.

    And than there is a sound of a gun shot or a swinged axe and all you see is the you are dead screen.

    The only way to make people play at night without using gamma change is not to make it pitch black, the only reason is that it's no fun to play in total darkness, this is not survival horror. In real life you would find a safe spot and go to sleep, not run around with a flash light like beacon shouting come shoot or eat me. Like Briljin said, rain will be all good and fun if it's implement correctly, not like weapon sway was, or loot in military bases adjustment when for a long time nothing spawned in the tents.

    Loading 60 stanags or the 75 drum mag will be so much pain in the ass.
  8. Yes lets allocate art designers and sound guys to dealing with cheats sure as hell they will know what to do.

    How is the gamma adjusting a cheat seriously, you just compared an in game option to aimbot and wallhack ? Night is so dark when there clouds that you can't see a thing, light from flash lights goes trough walls meaning everyone from miles away will know you are inside.

    Rain will be the new night?

    To clarify. I am all for increasing the struggle for survival but I don't want my character to die from pneumonia after running in rain for 30 minutes, nor do I want my character getting heat stroke because I ran form krasno to svetlo. Not to mention lack of some practical solutions, in real life I take off my hoodie or jacket and wrap it around my wait using sleeves when not needed, in dayZ it will have to go into my backpack, limiting my storage. Than the fact that I can't wear a t-shirt underneath any other clothing, another two slots gone from bag pack. Than we also need some hat and even wellies, in the end everyone runs around with a mountain bag pack full of clothes. Well currently in stable nothing protects you from rain, not even rain coat.

    That's assuming that everything will work the way it should, which is not so common in dayz, and how bad will the adverse effects of rain will be, they added weapon sway and for time being you weren't able to hit broad side of barn after running 100 meters. So considering how things tend to go the worst way possible adding hypothermia and overheating at the same time might produce so nasty combo.

    Rain will be the new night?

    1. Sure eat and cook, done in 2 minutes or less 2. Starting a game to read a book, when the day come when I read books in games not in real like I'll ask someone to shoot me 3. I'd rather hunt than fish 4. Cleaning a gun ? You mean drag a cleaning set to the gun only to see - mosin is pristine and doesn't need to be cleaned ? 5. Mending shirts takes total of 1 second 6. I know map well enough 7. Planning does not take much either So if I take my time we are looking at 5-10 minutes, not much. And while it might not in the future, I am bored right here right now not in 6 months. By no means I'm whining, but in this game there is not much to do to fill the idle time. See if they make cleaning guns, mending clothes take time it will make a huge difference, but now they take seconds.

    Behold : A TRUE SURVIVALIST All the things on stable branch 2nd September 2014 that he needs to survive against - No harsh weather - No diseases - Over abundance of food - Over abundance of warm clothing - Over abundance of weapons and ammunition - Few broken zeds My god you're right, so much to struggle against in this game I don't even know how do you make it,

    Rain will be the new night?

    The question is : What do I have to do on a server where it's raining on a clod evening ? Sit in a shelter and jerk off ? In real life I would have no choice because I have no log off option, I'll just have to suffer some boredom, but I don't play games to do boring things. So here is the question, what is there to with adverse weather effect and limited running due to over heating ?

    Your thoughts on the newest implementations

    First off they need to decide what season it is. It can't be that I need wool coat and a t-shirt same day. If it's early autumn as suggested be leaf colours, a hoodie should be enough to get you areound, and unless you are running around in a winter jacket hyper-thermia shouldn't be a problem. Not to mention that addition of over heating from running in a game where the only mean of travel is running and zeds run like sprinters from Jamaica is just stupid.

    Yea like the 5 men ass kicking squad of kosers I killed after they logged in it the town hall ? http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/156341-lets-post-some-screen-shots-standalone/page-63#entry2098354 Screens of my triumph over 5 armed players.

    You won't meet friendly people in military bases. You won't meet friendly people in Berezino (Berserkerino) And most people that have guns will only be friendly if you catch them without that gun in their hands.
  18. That 10 round clip can put down 3 people if you shoot accurately. SKS all the way. I like precise guns with lower rate of fire, which is why I am using mosin.
  19. Don't underestimate the power of SKS, M4s are mostly used by spray and pray players SKS needs much more precission. Killed a guy with a sporter yetserday, with a mosin, without scope, but it had grass wrap so I couldn't use iron sights either. That's how 1337 I am
  20. General Zod

    So where have all the Mosins gone?

    Piano houses (rare) Red corner houses with white door (less rare) Big red/orange buildings, Long barn And house blocks in towns. (not the grey ones)

    Yes, good idea. IB4 some one comes and says Imma outdoor man I can reload mags faster, make others learn how to do that.

    I die at least twice a day, sniping in berezino is not a safe profession, so long term problems are not concern to me, worst case scenario I'll drop the coat. Which is why I stopped going for cool "fully kitted" look. I make do with what I find.

    Character Independence and Gear

    Here we go, 'muricans with their Imma outdoor man, lets make other spend hours learning to to take guns apart, clean them and put them together. If there are manuals, they have to be common, and everyone has to read them, so that people from countries with gun control are not at disadvantage, or should we make majority of players from 'murica obese to compensate for your gun realism obsession ? We either make everyone learn things or no one.
  24. General Zod

    So you had a nice gear, lots of ammo and all other things you need. Why did you to and airport ? See where that got you ? You died because of your own greed. I never go to airports other than Krasno and that's only on my way to Svetlo. This is why you people die, you have all you need with your taste for your fancy military gear and you still go to the military loot areas. This is me, cargo pants, wool jacket and a vest I got while crossing Krano airport, not even a bag pack because it gives you away when sniping. Poor spec ops players, thinking they need some high end gear to survive.

    Well this kind of argue with rockets idea of not punishing any play style with in game mechanics.
