I don't like this, I have the feeling it is only interesting for camping KoS (Two weapons, slower running, no need to loot because no space to carry)

Err... FAT32 formatted HDD? :)

Well, if everybody was creating bugreports (or add to an existing) instead of making threads, you'd see way faster how many people have this issue.

Maybe try running as admin (DayZ.exe -> properties)? Just to make sure it's not related to user rights. Try deinstalling (I know, again) but before installing it again, check if Steam\SteamApps\common\DayZ ist really gone. Also, before you install, check the download folder (SteamApps\downloading) and remove anything DayZ related.

Try go get into config -> video settings just to make shure it's not because your char is in bad health If you can't read the config ingame, go to your My Documents folder -> DayZ and open the config file (not shure which one, it's not the one with "vars" in name) and check your resolution first. For me, fresh installs always had a res below my native and that caused blur. Also, try lowering PostProcessing quality - it creates blur when you look into the sun, like it is on your screenshot.

Actually, I believe making guns and/or ammo rare will turn anybody into a KoS bandit as soon as they get their hands on one. The more time you spend gathering guns/ammo, the less time people will think about risking them for the word "friendly" ... But maybe, before we talk about spawn rates, lets have respawning loot. As long as servers reboot every X hours, looting is "all or nothing". You loot way more efficient when (as a decent geared player) going like "open door? nothing to loot here! next!" Currently, when you find one can of food, you will find 20 others.

I don't think it's too bright. Yes when you're inside a hagner e.g. and look outside, the outside shines bright as a fuckin laser beam right in your face. But only for a short moment. Go outside on a sunny day and look straight in the sun. No, don't, you can hurt your eyes! You can walk towards the sun and when you're not looking directly into it, you can still see. Less good but you do - but that's just how it is. So, yes, we need (working) sunglasses. But if we get em, they should not just stop the sunbeams. They will lower them and make everything darker (surprise!) ... Oh and btw - even with sunglasses you can't see shit when looking right in the sun!

If I remember correctly, they indicate a rabbit or bird nearby. I read somewhere that those noises occur since the AI and sounds of those animals are not done yet, so those random noises are ... bird singing and rabbit munching :)

Hi everyone, I have the problem that my ingame voip transmits way to silent. (It transmits, but silently!) When I speak loudly into it, a player standing next to me hears a silent whispering... My friends can hear each other (and other players) very good, but I'm just silent as hell to them. Also other players asked me to write instead of speak... The problem only exists in DayZ. Skype, TS, Windows Recorder and Audacity all record/transmit my voice in perfect volume. The mic levels are all up! I tried the mic boost up to +30db but it didn't help. I did the following so far: - checked the mic is in Mic-In and not Line-In - tried a different mic A "Philips SBC ME 570/00" instead of my "Shure KSM141" [Yes, I know the Philips needs batts] [Yes, the Shure is attached to a preamp and phantom power is on] - tried different cables from / to preamp - tried three soundcards (and always removed / deactivated the other ones) Onboard, Audigy SE and a USB card - checked the Steam VOIP settings (-> they're simply connected to the mic levels of windows, so they're up to max) - tried the auto-level function within dayz It set the recording volume slightly below max (so DayZ itself thinks max input is not necessary) - deactived all other listed recording devices - there is no webcam or other microphone connected to the pc So, since recording volume is just not the issue (working everywhere else), I ran out of ideas... Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

But here it seems to be the other way round - they can here other players, but not me. It's only me who's silent. In case I got you right, everyone is silent for you.

So, we basically need (beside the volume system) a weight system, adding up your inventory and combining it with your falling height, to calculate the likeliness of you hurting or breaking your legs. While there is room for an "unlucky step" probability where you hurt your foot on lower heights, you can also remember lately jumps, so the more often you got away with a probability of over 50% e.g. the more likely it is to stumble and hurt yourself. This doesn't even need to be phys correct, just simple weight * meters (if above 1 meter (~3 ft) e.g.), that values applied to a logarithm scale give your a probability of X Then have "lately high risk jump" and "unlucky step" applied to it and there you go. Anyway - I still won't ruin my shoes, pants and everything in it. When you hurt your leg, make the pants go one condition down. That's enough I think...

There is no need for such a system - KoS will get less common as soon as we have more players per server. (Which is still planned afaik)

Make spawns all over the map! You spawned on Balota AF? Lucky you! When people are respawning until they hit an airfield ... okay. They still have to wait 30sec per spawn and no guarantee they will end up somewhere useful. Look at the dayzdb map in starting zoom. You have about what, 150 quadrants with land? Make two spawns in each and you're at 300, spawning from nowhere to right-on-nwaf! And if they're still suiciding until AF-spawn ... fine! Remember they still need a Z or a climable (climbable?) building...

Why not "ingame"? All hosters must report their IP-Ranges to BI Then have a button "report" in the details window of the server browser. You can choose from different preset reasons (Invalid name, forbidden rules in server name, etc.) or set your own one. And a free text of course. Some are easy to check (regarding server names), others must be handled by the hosters the way they do it normally. Maybe (more difficult) make that button interact with steam, so you can attach screenshots you took?

How about make it "offer" when not restrained and "force feed" when restrained? You can decline an offer, but force is force.

No matter it happend due to a glitch, I also think falling damage needs to be reduced or happen from higher heights. I jumped down about 3-4 ft, a light grey "hit" - and my pristine pants and everything in it was ruined.

If you want non-KoS 6-slot top gear - support my dyeing thread :D http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/199546-dyeing-clothes-backpacks/

"stable wipes" are exactly what has been said before: If the server cannot load your char (you are notified about it by a rather long red message while loading, sometimes a split second before you enter the game) it will load a default char. Now, if the gameserver reconnects to the character-server before you log off (maybe +30sec) it will upload your received default char as your new "live" char.

But we could only dye in black / green. While this is tactical so most useful - it's not always the most funny :)

Stable 32.114557 Hi, on some Public/Hardcore servers I spawn with my regular character, without replacing my "real" hc character on the "real" hc servers When joined, hc preset seems to be enabled though. Anybody else experienced this? If you like to test, search for: "NIGHT of the Dead - GMT+1" or "DayZ Jessycraft"
