Weather is coming...and it will make you sick ;)
LaughingJack (DayZ) posted a topic in General Discussion
I'm really excited for this... But I'm not sure if it won't affect the hiking simulator 2014 too much. Rain=no hiking? Hm. Better start a fire...wait...that will come too? Hm....and cook something on it? Until some wet bandits come because they saw the flame in the night... I'm not sure what I should think about that - on the one hand...I love every bit of authenticity in this game on the other hand, If it make sme sick to go out in the rain and i start sneezing again (ah the Mod memories...) and all players and Zeds get alerted by that...hm.... What do you guys think about that? :) Well to cheer you up (if you did not like that announcment) here is what rocket did on valentines day: -

Survival is not just about looting canned food and ak47s
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to Lady Kyrah's topic in General Discussion
Are you 2 drunk?^^ 1) I just stated that the crafting of modern firearms should not be possible, the best you could to without modern technology would be something like flintlock pistols, nothing about throwing out modern (or any) weapons 2) "revolutionary war simulator"...you must be american -.- 3) Yes, the survival aspect (in that case = main threat) is other players. That's fine, that's the way it should be. 4) "For all you people not wanting to play an actual game and instead sitting in a forest surviving"...Said the guy playing DayZ SA. wWhich is, in fact, wandering through the woods. Or sitting in the woods and waiting for somebody else wandering by. Or, here it comes, a survival sandbox game, that has no "right" or "wrong" way how it can be played. Wtf is an "actual game"? Counter Strike? SimCity? Skyrim? Minecraft? Oh no, wait, there you can also sit in the woods. Hm...Tetris? That ignorance is disturbing. edit: 5) I didn't even suggest a change, just discuss the potential of crafting things, nor did I "try to make this game" anythign else. Which, considering that this is general discussion, wouldn't do anything at all, even if I would have done that. No Dev reads this. And I'm glad, because nobody could bear all that BS that's written in this forum, especially not, if it is about somethign you've worked on. -
There was a guy- a fully geared guy-
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to alldaypk's topic in General Discussion
Said the MOFT. (Member of forum team...what do you guys THINK?^^) I wait & pray for a weight+endurance+running speed system...especially when I see how a guy wears 2 rifles, an axe in his backpack and all other slots are filled with ammoboxes that should be 300 round but hold 600... Edit: ANd i still find "Ogg" nice ;) -

LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to Lady Kyrah's topic in General Discussion
Hm...sounds fantastic ;) But wait for the health-system overhaul. Drinking from a pond or a well will have a good chance to make you sick. You start making noises that other players ond zombies can hear. You start to vomit that precious food out. And no water purification tablets anywhere. But wait, there's a pot, matchboxes and fire wood... And i prefer Spite. ;) Yeah, well...actually manufacturiong a modern firearm (as you can do it in Rust, which, tbh, was one of the things that annoyed the hell out of me) should just not be possible, you mentioned some good reasons. But selfmade blackpwder-flintlock gun...sure :) But why should you when you can get a Bow that is silent, fires faster and is as deadly... ;) But well, crafting is crafting...hm... Sorry for that what comes now, but it had to be done: Again, good ideas - as far as crafting goes, but again: It would be nice to have the possibilities but find the resources, find the recipes( maybe you need something like that...or a book...because I couldn't craft a flintlock pistol right now...) and craft it - but after you finished it and are proud like Dean about it, somebody comes and snipes you with a Mosin... :( Farming? Hm....collect berries. Get seeds out of them. Plant, water and guard them, wait ages for them to grow, collect berries, rinse, repeat. Well, that isn't flawless I see.... -

LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to alldaypk's topic in General Discussion
Arrrrrrrrr! Yarrr approved! Veterans sounds better imho and its the only fitting thing....but as opposite to bambi...hm...twelve pointer ;) -
Hm. Maybe because 90% of the people got this "#YOLO" thing going...or this "Die before surrender" stupidtiy, so as soon as they see you they start swinging their wrench, fists or whatever they have or shoot...Not that I'm a Bandit myself, but I could think that this kind of behaviour could lead to "Bandits becoming KoS"...
-
Hm...ah, I know, just go with "Douchebag" :) Nice, fitting term and not as accusing as "murderer" or "psychopath", which would be the only terms I could think of for people who kill people for no reason :) (srsly: I have nothing against KoS, it's part of the game. But you asked^^)

Deth...don't feed the johnny ;) And is the screenshot in my previous post invisible or did you really jump all posts on the FIRST page of a thread? -

Do these types of buildings spawn any loot?
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to Johnny Depth's topic in General Discussion
Ah didn't saw it was you Johnny, wouldn't have answered serious if I had realised that it was you. *edits first post* -

LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to Johnny Depth's topic in General Discussion
Edit: What dchil ninja'd ^^ That's the factory. Yes it spawns loot. In the house with the stairs. And why the heck did you throw away all your clothes? o.O And why the heck 3pp and exploiting it like a boss? -.- And why did you try to attack that guy...ah forget that question. Freshspawn PoS is a sign of true stupidity in this game. It's like watching a video trying to explain what Yolo means. Bah. -
Fixed that for you. A bandit robs, a murderer kills. Aber....endlich mal ein Landsmann im Forum...na da müss ma doch gleich mal feiern, ausnahmsweise mit der Nationalhymne: "Land der Berge, Land am Strome, Land der Äcker, Land der Dome, Land der Hämmer zukunftsreich!" *summ* Wennst ein Steirer bist, stimm ich auch "Fürstenfeld" für dich an ;) But yeah, some new spans are crazier than the average KoS-Sniper...they have nothing to lose, so they try everything with the fists of Fury...the only people I shoot without remorse. ...and btw.: Now you are attached to your gear again...if you die, the shotty is gone.... ;)

Play the matchbox game: If you find one box, you have to keep it until you find another one with more matches. If you do, you have a unlikely spot to find where you drop the old box (favourite place: toilets ;)) So. Damn. Now I want to make a fire, start cooking and start to sell medicine at my store in Pusta (the orange brick house). Great village, never have been robbed there. But never saw a customer either. But well, if I can go hunting, you'll never see me leaving it again probably. ;) -
CZ550, Horses, Tasers, Persistent Containers, and more Confirmed by Dean in Stream - video
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in General Discussion
Shopping carts/trolleys/wheelbarrows have been mentioned in the suggestion subforum...I don't know. Numerous times. But I can't recall one of the devs saying anything about it...hm maybe I'll twitter ctorchia, he sometimes actually responds XD -
CZ550, Horses, Tasers, Persistent Containers, and more Confirmed by Dean in Stream - video
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in General Discussion
Cool down, so much excitement is bad for your blood pressure. One more time (I swear, there must be forumsetting that forbids people to read all posts except for the first one) : It was an Q&A (Question and answer) so nothing mentioned here or in the vid is like "This is the plan for the next 3 patches). What rocket said was: Horses will be very difficult to implement, but they want to have them in at some point. Tameable stray dogs (you must be referring to the PC Game rinterview, I think) was something where rocket said it would be cool to have. Also nothing that is planned. If I remember correctly he stated some weeks ago that hazardous wildlife (Bears, wulfpacks, feral hounds and wild wombats ;)) may be implemented, but it is in only evaluation at the moment..so IF they will make them it will take quite some time... Where the horses are...Mustangs now. Running wild and free. Get a lasso, a cowboy hat and yeee-haw! And why are these BEANS everywhere? And all that fish in cans? I live in Europe (well, central not east) but 90% of cans you would find here is...Dog food. So where is all that the freaking Dog food? -
Beans for you. Just because. You are a strange dude...but hey, the beast is a little bit like the X-Men beast...just not that blue. Pf. Nobody did complain about Malcolms Dad becoming a Meth cooking maniac. Or Danny Trejo playing that mexican guy instead of that mexican guy or that other mexican guy. This forum makes my soul cry. If DayZ is a social experiment, this forum is a sociaopathic experiment... OP: If you open a thread about a topic that has been discussed 500 times or more, a topic, that is one of the number one in the suggestion forums, a topic, where the Devs spoke about AND start with insulting the walking Dead you clearly are a)trolling b) can't use the search function or c) wanted a flame war.... For all other things, refer to WindowLicker, he seems to be the good soul of this topic.

LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in General Discussion
Don't mix things up here^^ Private servers (as intended by the Devs) will also run on a private hive - no items, no character etc. can be swapped into the main hive. These "private servers" (no matter if locked, marked as private, reduced to 3 slots or Join=Kick) that exist at the moment are against the rules - report them as soon if you see one, that's the only possibility to get rid of this cancer. -

LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, if I missed something, just add it please^^ I was watching it and typing, when I saw something (btw. awesome streams ;)) that rocket stated...(and I did mention: "Saddles with inventory spaces ==Easy" ;)) And be sure to wear your wellies when you browse the General discussion - the sea of tears (no matter about what) is salty and wet...and with the upcoming sickness condition to cold/wet it may be dangerous.... ;) -
Survival is not just about looting canned food and ak47s
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to Lady Kyrah's topic in General Discussion
Loot on server restart=whining Dynamical loot spawn=whining Guns everywhere=whining Guns get super-rare and don't respawn fast=whining We don't know how the persistent containers work. Maybe they are like protector cases and you can have only one per character? Maybe you can have one per server? maybe you can have as many as you want...but well, other players may find them as well ;) So in the future: Dont loot houses - search containers ;) ....heavens, all that tears. ALL THAT TEARS! -

If you look at that: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/174626-weather-is-comingand-it-will-make-you-sick/ I think that covers the "heating"... This one: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/174639-interview-with-dean-hall-in-the-latest-pc-gamer-summerized/ regarding hunting, bow&arrows&improvised weapons and the rarity of guns...and also the loot respawn thing: ANd this about some other stuff which might go in the same direction: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/174485-cz550-horses-tasers-persistent-containers-and-more-confirmed-by-dean-in-stream-video/?p=1783453 Edit: I also mainly surf the General discussion and the suggestions forum...but I can't do that for a long time because some threads... well, they make we want to punch somebody in the face. And every day, there is a new one of these kind of threads. or 2. Or 3. Or a dozen... -
Interview with Dean Hall in the latest PC Gamer (summerized)
LaughingJack (DayZ) replied to TEST_SUBJECT_83's topic in General Discussion
Thanks for the post Sir, have my beans ;) ....why is the first thing I thought about: Well, that gives us the possibility to infect Players with the Zombie-virus or a new one.....instead of, i don't know, "Maybe they can heal the Zombies?" -.- DayZ in my mind...
