Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion
Judopunch replied to gibonez's topic in General Discussion
Its like people forget its a game LOL! I dont think you should die, because you scratched yourself on a fence. That may be realistic, but its not very fun. Authenticity would be better. Id like to meet you half way. Injury persists over time. For example if you got shot in the leg, dont expect to be springing for the next two hours of the characters life, and if you try be prepared to re-fracture it and have to crawl. -
Anyone ever discovered a building with a ridiculous amount of loot?

Overuse of satire/sarcasm dulls its effect. -
Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion
Judopunch replied to gibonez's topic in General Discussion
Thats true. The weight and size of the gun dispurse the load from the explosion. Half of the force pushes the bullet out the barrel and the other half pushes the weapon back. The major difference is, would you rather get hit by a baseball moving at 50mph or a needle? Because the smaller surface area of the bullet it distributes its kinetic energy less at the moment of impact, penetrating, and sending the kinetic shock-wave out through the body in a more focused manor. -
DayZ isnt finished yet. Every time they change something they open 10 new loopholes to be closed. When its finished they will close the majority of loopholes and there wont be as many of them because DayZ is pretty heavy server authoritative from what I can see.

There has been some variation, but in general there is to much loot in the game in almost every patch. There was a .5 exp patch... that was actually hard. -
Exactly this.

Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion

I believe they are adding more 'states' to the damage system. Hopefully this will round it out in the way you hope it will. IE Shot in the lower leg, walk with a limp, shot in the upper leg, unable to walk. Shot in the arm drop what your holding, ect. I dont really think they have done any work on it yet though. -

In almost every server where there is no loot, there is an entire town that looks like the examples here. Probably not entirely intended, but the loot did go somewhere. -
Ya, but I had more fun during that .5 exp build where you would starve to death in minutes, and couldnt run between towns without dehydrating then I have had in this game in a long time. Hopefully its not to easy for to long. People are already to used to how much loot there is, and yet there are still people who complain that there isnt enough!

You would be surprised how few people know about it, and surprised still how lazy the general population can be. I die a bit inside each time i see a thread that complains about the lack of loot or how hard the game is. Im also sure this is an artifact of loot respawn that will get cleaned up a bit and is not intended. But I also think the amount of loot we have in general is way to high and will be eventually toned down when they get closer to beta. -
Most comments still reflect the notion that this loot stashed in tents is not accessable. It is. There is not really anything wrong with it. The sub message here seems to be 'i want to go to the airfield to get my guns, who wants to look around in the woods for camps and staches'. I dont think having guaranteed loot areas for guns actually helps, and that having caches adds to the game. I also think people are getting comfortable with how easy it is to gear up in this game. Im wondering when/if rocket is going to turn the knob to reduce the spawn-rate of, specifically, food and weapons and make the game actually hard.

Sounds like he doesnt understand how elevation and range and bullet drop all work together. If your are higher / lower, and if you are shooting a faster/heavier round, and at medium or long range, all effect where the shot will actually hit. Not just the range.

People loot the area around completely dry. They get lazy or say 'there is no loot', log out. Repeat for 30 people. Loot respawn builds up in areas that everyone is to lazy to check. Happens all the time. Thats why whenever someone posts one of those 'THERE IS NO LOOT' threads I laugh. First question I ask is 'where were you trying to get loot', answer is usually Electro/cherno. -
So. You would rather have the story of 'i saw this guy and I shot him', instead of the interesting and entertaining bit you just posted? ... k.

They are very easy. They move towards you, stop, attack, aim, stop, attack. What this means is if you are constantly strafing to the left (or right but left because of how weapons swing) they will almost never hit you. If you need to get close, keep moving tell they swing, then make your attack, if your attack fails wait tell they swing again.

As far as I know they are activity working on this.

I disagree with this. 3pp was a training mode to teach people who had never played games before, what their controls were doing to their avatar. It was for tutorial purposes.

I was looking for you here....

Third Person View should be Over-the-Shoulder, NOT a bird's eye view.
Judopunch replied to Rags!'s topic in General Discussion
This argument is what I really dont like. The op said "I think the system is fair" in the first 3 lines of the post. I disagree with him. I put this question to the OP and now I ask it to you... Are you OK with an unequivocal advantage for someone laying on the roof, who can kill you at will, when death is a major setback in this game? -

Are you a logition or a statistician? -

Judopunch replied to Rags!'s topic in General Discussion
I disagree with this the most. I think this is WHY it needs to be changed. As someone brought up if you are on the hospital roof you have a massively unfair advantage to anyone not on a higher elevation then you. Thats just one really clear example of why it needs to be changed. In this game death is a HUGE setback and to give that kind of unequivocal power to someone who just lays down on a roof with god-cam activated is just not fun. -

I like you. -
I didnt do any hard testing, but being hydrated may help cool off. If anyone can confirm a relationship that would be great!

Its a symptom of the larger problem. Everyone goes to the same 4 spots to find loot. They loot all the loot. People complain there is no longer loot. Guy moves to a 5th spot the other players were to lazy to check. Guy has PILES OF LOOT.
