    What none of us want to admit

    Actually you are right. I am playing (mostly) deathmatch in a survival game and the if loot persistence will ever be forced and coastal cities will be stripped of loot, that could be my last day of playing DayZ (which will really, but really suck). However, a significant percentage of DayZ players play like this, since I always have a lot of people to pvp with in the coastal cities. I`m pretty sure that the devs are aware of it and probably wouldn't want people to stop playing the game (and stop recommending it to their gamer friends). I think the best way to keep everyone happy would just be to make a hardcore mode, or the opposite - hardcore by default and make "easy mode" for anyone interested. Just don't be surprised if there will be more people playing the "easy mode". Also one more thing I`d like to point out, DayZ (at least for me) pretty much has the ultimate pvp concept. And here's why (a copy from my post on the KOS topic): *Gritty and realistic setting (future setting\fantasy games are generally a huge turn off for me) *Everyone versus everyone unless you decide to team up with someone *You can communicate with\rob other players without having to kill them *Massive and open map (ok, I don't really care about massive, but the openness of the map just beats any other game) *You spawn unarmed *You have to find guns,ammo and magazines If you know another game that has all (or at least most) of these points - please introduce me to it. I`m kind of mindblown that all the DayZ clones out there stick to the survival side, and not the ridiculously simple but great pvp concept.

    What none of us want to admit

    I`m with OP on this one. And honestly? I`m not hiding that I don't want to search for loot off coast. I want to get a gun with some ammo and jump in the hell people sometimes call "Berezino". People want to explore the map and live in peace and harmony with the environment? Enjoy yourselves, but please don't spoil my fun.

    Lone wolf or team player?

    Team player all the way, robbing people as a team is awesome fun.

    All you PVPers out there.

    I usually pvp in Cherno\Elektro\Berezino, the biggest reason is that if you log into a populated server in one of those cities you will find other players 99 out of 100 times. And personally I`m just not a huge fan of playing DayZ as a running simulator.

    More "natural" movements.

    This so much. One of the reason ARMA games (even the new one) don't feel quite right is the animations.

    Loot question

    Don't want to start a new thread over this, but how does loot respawn works in persistent servers? Lets say I find a repeater in Berezino and survive with it for a month, will the repeater\weapon in a similar category not respawn until I die?
  7. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    I Feel Fufilled.. Do You?

    I hang around coastal cities (Cherno\Elektro\Berezino), get myself a weapon with a reasonable amount of bullets (10+) and then go into a full server for adventure time. Never gets old.

    Death in Dayz, how do you meet it?

    Got killed by AK wielding guys after a pretty awesome run with a friend and a friendly guy I met in Cherno.
  9. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    Those times when you died and you don't know why

    Ah, the good ol' heart attack feature

    Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion

    This kind of stuff need proper visual presentation too. I want to see it actually happen to a character (blood,gore,animations) instead of seeing an "I was shot in the neck" "I`m rapidly losing blood" if it happens to me.
  11. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion

    I`m not, its an awesome idea with literally no downsides. What I am surprised is that almost no developer gives depth to the injury system. The graphics become nicer with the years but the gunplay itself progresses in baby steps even in games that are supposed to be realistic (ARMA, I`m looking at you).

    Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion

    Man, this video is from over an year ago.. How is this still not in the game?

    Drag Dead Bodys

    First time I see everyone agreeing on something on the forum
  14. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    Where'd the hopper go?

    A friend says he saw him once (don't remember where), would be cool to see that guy more frequently

    Cannibalism - Lets make it USEFUL

    I strongly disagree with having food and loot become more rare. Personally I don't care about hunting and I didn't buy DayZ to grow tomatoes (or anything else in that matter). What I do think could make everyone happy, is having a hardcore mode with all the things constantly repeated on the forum, and let anyone interested keep having their deathmatch in Berezino without starving to death in normal\easy mode.

    Sking going pale from bloodloss and sickness

    So pretty much the title. Make the skin go pale from losing blood, and maybe from sickness too (when its a bad condition). Everyone just looks so.. Lively. Sure its ok when your character is healthy, but when DayZ looks like a black&white movie (not sure what's the correct way to say it), you should see it from the outside on the character too. I know they are working on limping animations, and maybe bullet holes will appear someday, but pale skin is an aspect I haven't seen anywhere yet.

    Sking going pale from bloodloss and sickness

    Yep, would love to hear the devs start talking about enhancing combat experience. Would take that over vehicles any day

    Signs of damage (Bruises, Cuts, Bullet wounds)

    I just hope this stuff will be done actually around the wound location. Not like in ARMA when the damage texture is always the same every time(kind of like the ruined clothes in DayZ, only there its ruined humans).

    Tired of spawning at the coast

    What exactly did you expect? 230 hours is A-LOT of time.
  20. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    We need a Hardcore (aka Survival) Mode

    You got my beans for the hardcore mode idea. Think of all those stuff people constantly ask to enforce on everyone(make weapons and ammo VERY rare, force day & night cycle, character going insane because of KoS & so much more). You can have that in hardcore mode and everyone is happy. You grow your tomatoes, I`ll shoot people in Elektro.

    DayZ Developer AMA: Chris Torchia

    Correct me if I`m wrong, but it wasn't. It happened on a private subreddit (/r/DayZUnderground), which means I (and most people who aren't given access) can't see what's going on there, let alone post a question. I'd be happy to post a few question to the devs, given the opportunity.
  22. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    are duping and hack issues fixed ?

    A hacker just dropped mine and my friend's gear, killed my friend with MY mosin and killed me with some shotgun he probably took off someone else. Fuck hackers right in the pussy.
  23. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    Removing the 'Hide body' option

    The hide body option just makes no sense. Why should a body stop being loot-able after some dude (or a girl) just passed over it and pressed a button?
  24. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    Christmas Ceasefire

    I`m all for that, you cease, I fire. Now on a serious note, this idea is doomed to begin with.
  25. ValentinBk (DayZ)

    Why all the judgement?

    Most of the complaining I see here is about KoS and hostile players in general. Hackers are a serious pain in the ass though, got killed at least 4 times by hackers, and today my colt (with a mag!) just disappeared from my inventory..
