How is this even a suggestion? What's stopping you from already walking like a zombie? Just hit shift and walk across the street...

What about the people who look for populated servers?

Lets start with this song being played first... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vodd6C5ryUU After spending countless hours of server hopping and running across a TEC building in Chernogorsk in attempts to find a decent weapon, i had finally found a server dedicated to finding loot... I had finally found a mosin rifle, with a long range scope and 40 rounds for it...all of it was pristine. I couldn't help but let out a few tears from under my dallas mask, I was just so happy... The first thing i did was ran to the very top of the TEC building I was in, I was now at a high-point and could clearly see the entire city. I attached my long ranged scope to the rifle and slid in a bullet into the chamber...I was ready... I scanned the area for any signs of survivors, it didn't take long before I had found a male with nothing but the undergarments he was wearing. I laid down on my stomach and took aim, my crosshair was lined up perfectly in between his eyes, as I slowly began pulling the trigger... I was forced to exit aim-mode and entered third-person, I was falling from the very top of the TEC building I was on...Before I could think to exit I was struck by a black screen with white text reading 'You are dead.'. I quickly hit my esc key and clicked on 'RESPAWN', seconds later I was hit with more white text 'Please wait', i followed the text's instructions. I waited for minutes...nothing was happening... I then exited the server, hoping i could rejoin the server...it was nowhere to be found... I spent hours trying to get the valuable gear...I had the perfect spot for sniping n00bz...Now, it's all gone...never to be found again...

Would hat crafting be something likely to be implemented? And before you make a post about it, no, it has nothing to do with tf2... It would be more to categorize certain groups. Something like a black beanie with a red stripe or something, if it were worn by enough people in one group, pretty much anyone who saw someone with that beanie would know that they're apart of a certain group.

Hopefully every russian weapon gets added.

I like the idea of playing dead, but not walking like a zombie to avoid threat. I'm pretty sure zombies just 'sense' the living, so go right ahead and walk like a zombie before being ripped apart and shot. Also, playing dead wouldn't save you from a zombie and as of right now, laying down and staying still is equivalent to playing dead.

I hope it'll be added, just not in alpha.

Isn't chernarus affected by radiation or something? Good luck getting a signal.

Here's my suggestion: In certain areas, one (or more) dead people would be found with a few dead zombies around them and the remaining alive ones feeding on the corpses. The dead people would have some weapons or something in their hands, it would basically be to 'paint a story' if you will, it would show what happened in that specific area. An example: Two survivors armed with some valuable gear are in an open field, dead and surrounded by a few dead zombies and some that are still alive and feeding. It's pretty

I love how all the replies against this ideas are only "No this other game already did that" why aren't you looking at for what it could be for this game instead of what it already did for another game?

As far as realism goes, 'special' infected would almost definitely be seen in an actual zombie outbreak. There would be some zombies that are huge and muscular, some that would pounce you as if they were animals, maybe even some that attract other zombies with noise. But, i highly doubt we'll be officially seeing those due to the fact that dayz players really dont want that simply for the fact that another game already did that. Stupid, but true. However, keep in mind that once steam workshop is established, we will almost definitely be seeing tanks, sputters, boomers etc.

Yes, yes, and yes. But i highly doubt they will add the zombie children. I think i saw an interview with rocket and he was asked about it and i believe he said something about avoiding zombie children, i dont remember why. But yeah, not counting on that one.

I think people are forgetting what steam workshop can do

For some reason this posted and i cant edit it. CONTINUED: It's pretty obvious these survivors were overran by zombies and if you want there gear, youd have to get past this large group of zombies occupied by the corpses

Person 1: *Unloads a full M4 clip into you* Person 2: Lol fuck off noob im wearing a hat, welcome to dayz *Walks away*

Are the developers doing anything as far as things like bear traps, tripwires, spikes, or anything as far as that goes? If not, what is everyone's opinion on them?
