Just one is enough? How long do fireplace burn?
-
Ash wood stick + rope For the hook I would suggest to bend and take off needle from syringe ...any idea for the bait?
-
Locked soon ? Don't worry, each or new will resume roles in the incoming thread "Hey! we need Maxim Gun!!"
-
Talking about Zombie "realism", maybe DayZ will reward stealthness (avoid zombies confrontation) because it was never intended to get great fun by killing them(?) Annoying or not, when hordes will appear (and diseases), I bet it would be at least "challenging" to stay alive.

Get high, get drunk,... what for? An eye-candy effect you would try to see for fun & curiosity, and only once (just like many other games)... that does not worth resources and time wasted to work on it (don't even mention extra animations work some would expect). Minigames, that's a different story. Rock,paper,scisor & cards (poker or else) sound good way to interact -and play- with other players. But as we already know KoS would derail this feature. :(
-
"Military type" zombies are supposed to be thouger (but currently I don't really see any difference).
-
You guys rely on old DayZ mod's helicopters. But, for example : Aerokopter AK1-3 Sanka (Ukraine) I don't think that kind of light (mostly civilian use) helicopter would "master" the game.
-
No prudery censorship. Taking offence is limitless.
-
As long as "passive skills" require severals hours play to get each, and die when player die. I agree. Because of "supply & demand" model, current players would rather die to save their gear (rare) than their life (infinite). Which is absurd.
-
I support idea to have crows flying around dead bodies, but not circling above. Crows are not vultures (they cannot "glide" that way).

Rolling Update Rev - 0.43.116251

In my opinion just4me rely on masking frame from old hollywood movie used to represent goggle view. But I prefere the current one. -
Indeed. Disappointment does not excuse deception, OP should change thread title now.
-
I'm already wasting my time to reply to your non-constructive suggestion, that's already explained 100 times. At best use "search" forum function.

@tatchell About the picture, you are focusing on these 2 persons. Why not on the 50 else, wearing common clothes? Keeping this camouflage/riot/military Vs civilian clothes loot ratio, and it should be fine.

wind direction/speed feedback to the player
JiJi (DayZ) replied to akafugitive's topic in Suggestions
Please no kestrel windmeter, never. This would not be suitable. - Take a handkerchief size cloth (a T-shirt rag). - Put some white ash (could be collected from incoming fireplace). - Fold rag border and make a knot, ash should be compacted (about a tablespoon volume occupied). - Tap the ball with just a finger : At each tap some ash particle will go throught cloth layer and since it is very light, wind will take it away showing you direction and strenght. This is a "trick" learnt by african tracker/hunter, they use it to check if they walk into the wind. -
I dislike this kind of idea. It's like wishing a running on the spot animation to make believe you desync or server reset and tricks others players.

Remove Zombies until they're fixed.
JiJi (DayZ) replied to Sir Schmoopy's topic in General Discussion
Why remove zombies now? If zombies had to been removed from the first days (because they were also broken), we would not have had : ...and all this would have been more work to do more time to spend after major zombie bugs fixed. -
Usefull hand signs : - "Come here" (invite to approach, and get in voice chat perimeter range). - "Go away" (like a warning shot, but don't waste ammo and won't aggro Z).

Rat implemented, but not (yet) used in early access current game. http://youtu.be/CsTctdjp5uE#t=19m19s You could talk with sewer workers all around the world, rats are the same : Rats always flee humans (or big animals), whether starving or in group. They only attack when cornered - that is unlikely to happen on open space map. So I would rather see rats as food than threat.

JiJi (DayZ) replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements
I'm afraid you may be right, such a shame I hate deathmatch anywhere on a survival game. -
It is real : source [timeline 00:00:10]

Quite important for a survival (but zombie aswell) game, I wonder if DayZ will inherit from that ArmA 3 feature. Just imagine dusk/dawn or night -since more favourable time to happen whenever if rainy or not- where fog would cover Chernarus from costal (blue) up to further inland (green). Seeing only furtive silhouettes or just hearing zombies around, I bet it would be spooky and stressful. :)

Yes, don't worry there are plenty heights fog couldn't reach (if the one from ArmA3), and on the other hand I think fog would hold few hours per day - not 24h/24. Actually it would even help FPS, because of the "occlusion culling" improvment.
