I would love to have access or the ability to access every bit of a building I came across. Who knows what could behind that door. A zed, A bandit, A sniper, Food, Water? With the option to look, it adds more to gameplay. And to come across a shed with a sledge hammer, shovel, axe, ammo, rifle, or even a trap door to a cellar? Oh my god, just imagine..

I don't want to kill anyone on sight, but if I see you..

Moose are huge meaty, lethal animals. And Chernarus doesn't even really exist. We should be able to bend (not break) the rules a bit.

This is exactly the chemistry I was picturing in my mind when I was writing down key components of a Military Relief Drop. There could be a group of 3 specifically hunting for these drops, Or a couple bandits watching the same drop, without realizing it, waiting for prey to think they've found salvation in a world of terror. To have different quality drops would make them even more special, like mentioned earlier in the topic. Pristine to Destroyed drops, old or new. Just because the military has no where to place survivors, doesn't mean that won't try to send relief.

Let's keep the discussion of Lethal Creature immersion alive, since more topic posts about it are rising.

We can't... What?

Having 1 or 2 Amur Tigers would be unique to the game, seeing as they do exist around the geological area - and Mankind has significantly decreased and become food for predators. How awesome would it be to see a big Russian cat walking through the woods, to hunt or be hunted. It would be beautiful, and even though you conformists want this game to be only about surviving and dull grey crap, It would be exciting for alot of players to see this kind of immersion.

This is awesome, I can picture 8 zombies charging me, with nothing but a shotgun and 6 shells, I blast at one of the zombies, hitting it in the knees, it topples, and the others trample it as it crawls at me. I fire off a shell into the head of a zombie, like a chicken without a head it takes a couple more steps before hitting the ground. Limbs fly off the zombies till I have only a small axe to use. Then it gets real.

This is exactly the feedback I was waiting for.

Why would intentionally blow this out of proportion. For food, water, and self defense against Zeds, It makes sense to me, I did not say rifles. I said SMALL FIREARMS.

That's brilliant.

That's a good idea. That they are only available once in a server life. It's a believable concept isn't it?

We must remember that Developers have lives and wives of their own. We all know how women can be when it comes to spending time on other things.... Not like from personal experience or anything. But I don't know if they are even looking at the forum, I rarely see a developer comment on a suggestion when that's really who we try to appeal to. They look at Reddit all the time it seems. I don't mean to sound like I know what they are watching. I am just saying, It's like they don't pay attention to suggestions. Just complaints. This is still Alpha, don't give up. They'll get the engine straightened out, and will start coding and designing further.

When I finally play, I will most likely only get to play in the evening. I want to experience DayZ through Day and Night, 6 hours of Day, 5 hours of Night sounds great to me. Allow the moon against the clouds to bring the twilight haziness to the land. Where you thought you saw something, but it's your mind playing tricks. But this brings up another post I saw, about moon phases. How bright and dark it'll be at night depending on the phase of the moon.

Here is a cross-post from my forum post: Heavy Metal Deathtraps of Tomorrow - Armored Buses (Group transport, town to town - heavy on gas, but convenient for protection, and more.)Off Road bikes (Quick on dirt and asphalt, vulnerability is high sitting on a bike, but point A to point B is quick, and light on gas. Lone Wolf Machine.)Dune Buggies (3 seated vehicle, possibility of machine gun attachment. Mediate on gas, but steady on dirt, great for woodland crossing and steep climbs.)Sedans (Armored or bare, great for transport of 4. Mediate on gas, nice trunk space. Great on asphalt, little traction on dirt at medium+ speeds.)Trucks (Armored or bare, little or big, good for transport of 2-4, heavy on gas, but convenient for heavy items - Engines, Full bags, Offroad Bikes, etc.)Choppers - Hogs - Street bikes (Armored or bare, great for transport of 2, light on gas, great on asphalt, no traction on dirt at medium+ speeds.)Helicopters (Large or small, armored or bare, great for transport of 1-6, mediate on gas, fast from point A to point B, possibility of machine gun attachment. Convenient for heavy items.)

-Vehicles of Chernarus: Car lots across Chernarus stand deserted, loaded with metal, scrap, vehicles waiting for potential. Buses of Elektro, Trucks from the hills, Motorbikes from the coast, and small cars for everything between the lines. The people of Chernarus are faced with the challenge of endless hiking, to dehydrate before coming close to a well, pump, or canteen. Only a lucky few have found the materials to continue on their journey with a set of wheels, and little gasoline they have found. Engines, Tires, Steering Wheels, Corroborators, Fuel Tanks, and more to find to recover a sitting vehicle - That has been raped of materials. Where would you find Gasoline? It's dangerous to try to extract from a fuel station, without the correct skills. What about siphon through a hose, of old vehicles on the road? The possibilities are there, but the vehicles, parts, and liquids aren't. Let me list an example of vehicles one would come across in the World of Survival. Armored Buses (Group transport, town to town - heavy on gas, but convenient for protection, and more.)Off Road bikes (Quick on dirt and asphalt, vulnerability is high sitting on a bike, but point A to point B is quick, and light on gas. Lone Wolf Machine.)Dune Buggies (3 seated vehicle, possibility of machine gun attachment. Mediate on gas, but steady on dirt, great for woodland crossing and steep climbs.)Sedans (Armored or bare, great for transport of 4. Mediate on gas, nice trunk space. Great on asphalt, little traction on dirt at medium+ speeds.)Trucks (Armored or bare, little or big, good for transport of 2-4, heavy on gas, but convenient for heavy items - Engines, Full bags, Offroad Bikes, etc.)Choppers - Hogs - Street bikes (Armored or bare, great for transport of 2, light on gas, great on asphalt, no traction on dirt at medium+ speeds.)Helicopters (Large or small, armored or bare, great for transport of 1-6, mediate on gas, fast from point A to point B, possibility of machine gun attachment. Convenient for heavy items.)In order I have listed images below for a clear perception of what I am proposing: These are just an idea I though I would share with you, DayZ. This is your game, and this is survival. Please discuss your thoughts, please be constructive with your response, and twist the idea into yours, bend it to fit DayZ. I do not want to propose a solid image, just an imagining of what we could encounter in our harsh travels.

Has anyone have more ideas about vehicle implementation?

This would make the night much more horrifying.

That.. Was was beautifully explained. I really hope a Developer does see this post, or a point similar, to get the hunger balanced.

I am constantly pushing the idea of farming. To have the ability to grow food and have to protect it? How intense could that get? Possibilities are endless, and Alpha is the perfect time to stretch it.

Great Idea Karma, adding alot of items to the loot table may make optimization a little more difficult. Just some variety in food may make the game more conceivable.

A shuttle? I have no words for this post. I thought and thought for something respectful to say... And I have nothing..

I wasn't proposing we add every item on the list, this is just a variety to decide on. God why would someone eat SPAM un-cooked?
