Be creative with player interactions or come back at next patch.

got global banned for trying to increase FPS
dethsupport replied to joaomalhao's topic in Troubleshooting
No grass gives you an unfair advantage I think when going prone with a rifle, normally your vision is pretty obscured by the grass. Hence why it may have resulted in a ban. -
Full military gear - oh no my mortal enemy! A 10 degree incline!
-
Try going prone and rolling left and right into smaller areas and then stand up and jump/step against the walls. Keep trying, maybe if you're lucky the server will hiccup and you'll desync through the wall.
-
The same can be said about bushes, you will see the items but be able to pick them up into your hands and they wont appear in the vicinity window.
-
Honestly vehicles sound like they will be a bit game breaking, I say at best you either get a horse like you suggested or a bicycle. I would love to be in full kit riding through kamishovo on a pink bike, maybe even with training wheels and streamers.

Both staying healthy along with consuming charcoal tabs, and drinking so much water that you vomit are effective solutions. If you simply don't have enough food on you or nearby and too much time has passed head to the water pump and chug till you puke. Just like in real life, if you have to ingest a poisonous substance the immediate response is to induce vomiting.

We are dealing with the infected, not ghouls and mutants.

When and how do you make contact with strangers?
dethsupport replied to iBane's topic in New Player Discussion
I never make contact if the situation it would put me in puts me at a disadvantage. Ambushes and surprise are key elements. When I successfully hold someone up I make them drop their pants and wiggle for me. Then I send them on their way with a can of my beans and water bottle if they need it. -
Maybe they were in fact doing exactly as you suggested - learning to shoot the mosin. When I first had one I would take potshots at zombies to get a feel of distances, I never had a player cross my scope in my early days but it would have been great practice.
-
The only time I've kept a character but lost gear was when I had stuff in my hands and went to go pick berries. My stuff dropped inside the bush and I could see it but not grab it. Worst part? Not a single berry was found that day. Losses happen, gives you a reason to head back into towns and loot.

Why the dayz formula will ultimately fail
dethsupport replied to randalmcdaniels's topic in General Discussion
The second time today I've laughed to tears. Beans for you. -
In the dayz main menu click character and adjust to your preference, then click set as default. Your NEXT character will be your default one, if you still have an existing character it will be the same as the previous model until you end up respawning. As for your name, you can adjust it by clicking on the name on the right side of the screen on the main menu. It may be hard to see the cursor but you can adjust your name from there. Hope this helps, good luck.

dethsupport replied to randalmcdaniels's topic in General Discussion
I hate to give this response but it really applies here - this is alpha. Loot tables and spawns will definitely be addressed as the game evolves so I am confident that the whole "suicide for a better spawn" will decrease. Its just players exploiting the feature and nothing will ever fully stop them from doing that, at best we can hope it will be mitigated to an extent. -
I Gotta Say, The Olive Tactical Shirt Looks Great When Ruined
dethsupport replied to leefriendfield's topic in Gallery
There are several forms of camouflage beyond simply ttsko that can be implemented effectively by those who are creative. I stumbled upon someone wearing white/grey/black while lying prone on the rocks and would have never seen him if it wasn't for the muzzle flashes. -
Best way to allow the ability to carry multiple primary weapons.
dethsupport replied to Slyguy65's topic in General Discussion
I play with a group but we carry different primaries so we can cover different ranges. Fixed for you. -
I dont understand why there is no AUTO RUN KEY!!!
dethsupport replied to Bohannan (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
I never said it WAS teleporting/botting, I said it was LIKE a slow form for teleporting/botting. You're character is moving, and you're doing stuff in the real world, like a script would enable you to do. Theoretically you could auto-run AFK for days on end into a wall, the only difference is that you would die to other factors before the day ended. You could teleport/autorun into lava/off a cliff etc. in another game because you weren't paying attention and it would also kill you, and that hasn't stopped people from doing worldly tasks either. And once again I'll state I don't care if its implemented, if you want to auto run that is absolutely fine with me, it won't affect my play style. -
Who is being a snob? Someone wanted an irradiated zone with a loot temple. Others disagreed. The zone is irradiated, any loot would be useless anyway. That makes him/her/them/us (a) snob(s)? Yes, this is what dayz is about right now as you said. This in no way reflects the future of the game...... I hope. In turn it should mean that the focus will shift much more to survival aspects. In a real life crisis scenario no worldly possession should be worth more to you than your own life, and the future of dayz will hopefully instill that notion in game.

You could make every single water source infected but as soon as fires are out it won't matter that much. It wont really have that big an impact on the game unless the number of water sources was drastically reduced, but that would kind of break immersion. You wouldn't really see a bunch of towns spring up in areas that don't have access to water.

I am speechless at my stupidity.

dethsupport replied to Bohannan (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
Being able to get up and do worldly tasks while your character is still progressing is certainly an advantage. Like I said though I don't care enough about it to really argue. It being implemented wouldn't affect my play style. -
Survival is not just about looting canned food and ak47s
dethsupport replied to Lady Kyrah's topic in General Discussion
They ever popular m4 pretty much already spawns in pieces, and if anything it encourages more server hopping to get the pieces people desire. -
Best way to allow the ability to carry multiple primary weapons.
dethsupport replied to Slyguy65's topic in General Discussion
I am in tears, beans for you. In real life it isn't practical to carry more than two firearms usually a primary and a sidearm such as an m4 and an m9, people don't tend to realize the shit gets heavy especially when you start adding in shit tons of ammunition. It is better to remain light and lethal than slow and armed to the teeth (unless you're a SAW gunner) That being said I wouldn't mind you being able to carry whatever weapons you wanted if they actually took a bunch of slots in your pack and a characters speed/fatigue was affected by the weight they are carrying. By all means carry all the weapons but you shouldn't be able to sprint more than a hundred meters before being completely wiped and hurting. -
I actually like that their are these young kids in the game as well as the older population. It makes me feel that there is actually some diversity in the game and honestly since it is a humanity simulator they act exactly how I picture they would act in a real disaster scenario where they couldn't take out their phones and play angry birds or candy crush all day. With that in mind I have no complaints, I don't let the kiddies bother me. People and their characters are a reflection of each other and as such generally behave the same way in and out of game.

I do the opposite, I take and carry my buddies blood, and he does the same for mine. We play together so there is no point in carrying our own blood, just to have the other person need to take it back and then IV it into you. Since you can't give it to yourself I see no reason to hang onto your own unless 1. you're playing with an odd number of people so someone needs to carry their own or 2. you're hoping some random stranger who comes along and finds you weak and needing blood will IV for you instead of punching you in the head and stealing all your shit.
