Sonic-NKT

i cant believe that there is still a discussion about this :D we have hardcore servers with 1pp only, so you cant look over fences or arround corners, in the future maybe even more harsh rules and affects who knows. then we have regular servers where you can choose what view you want to have... why would you force 3pp only? i like it running arround with a friends, gives it a kind of movie feel, but when im looting house or have to fight 1pp is so much better. why not just let anyone play as they want on regular servers? after they have introduced hardcore mode i really cant understand that this whole thing is still a problem...

i agree that maps are too rare atm... because of this i also use a online map on my second screen. i would like to get rid of this but then they have to also fix the map, i would love to have a map (atleast) parts on screen when i activate it and not fullscreen all the time.. it even has loading time to get and remove the map atm. maybe they should add a option to view a small part of a map on screen if you have the map in your hands. PS: no i dont mean a minimap on the screen all the time.

well i dont know if radiation is the right thing but i like the idea of contaminated zone and its only possible to enter those with special gear (gasmask, gloves, special jacket), well you could try it without but with a high risk of becoming ill/infected and so on...

lol, yeah this board is the perfect place to bitch for being killed in dayz ....

i really like the idea, the cooking pots could be used aswell.... but to make this a reasonable source for clean water they really have to change the other sources... ponds should always need the water purification tablets or at least a high risk of infection, pumps in larger towns should have more risk than in smaller ones. fountains should have a high risk as well because those dont use drinking water in general. well count me in for this great idea!

Blood transports oxygen through the body for the organs. saline wont do that ;) its only working as a replacement to keep the blood pressure up so the transport system works as it should. i have to admit i have no idea what would happen if you have a huge blood loss like 2L or more and replaces those with saline... anyone with a bit more medical knowledge arround here? but anyway, my guess is . the current implemented system isnt final, i mean you could loose all your blood and still wont die even if you replace it with saline completly. i hope they add a more realistic system in the future like: loose up to 1 - 1.5l -> no real affects (filling a blood bag) more than 1,5l -> thurst, dizzy, panic -> health will slowly go down more than 2l -> dizzy (vomiting, which would dehydrate you even more), unable to run -> health will go down rapidly more than 2,5l -> unconscious, needs treatment (saline, blood) really bad -> health will go down rapidly more than 3l ---> DEAD

didnt the devs allready say that driving a vehicle at top speeds like that wont be easy at all? i think cars should be in the game, but i hope they keep those civilian, no army vehicles with guns.. just make fuel and working parts a rarity, limit the speed of those patchwork cars to 100 on roads or something like that. modern cars would be a pain in the ass to keep them running, i want old simple ones where it is possible to fix them yoursell. in a post apocaliptic world its way easier to get and old tractor working than any modern car that is full of electronics. and yes please add bicycles ;)

i really hope they add options to servers to force those settings... if you dont want pp play on a servers that allows turning it off and dont ruin the game for the others who like the more realistic influences of being badly hurt. same goes for gamma hacks... i dont have a expensive gaming pc and pp low vs off is almost no difference ins fps..

well i only play on nighttime in low populated servers... because of the gamma/cloud exploit... I really like the night because it just gives a really different feeling to the game and it gets much creepier... and you are afraid to turn on your flashlight because maybe you are not alone. but i was killed a few times on night servers allready and im 90% sure those used the exploit.... Well its a alpha but all players should play with the same influences from night, bloodlos or health loss.... its one of the big things imo that should be fixed...

i like the idea, but it should be visible if other players stumble in the woods over it. But i guess this kind of stuff is best on a server with its own hive, so people can dug things up even if the player isnt in the game. If a character died the things should disappear after a short time so the server wont get to crowded.

well a friend of mine accidentially split my head with an axe one time... that was a bit stupid... another time a friend fought with a zombie, he only had a baseball bat and was allready bleeding like hell, i rushed in to save him and he knocked me out for 30 sec or something like that. After i had vision again i was hovering of the ground lying down... couldnt stand up or move. Logged out and back in and it was fine again. But we both survived this incident...

there are trains in the game... saw one in the north.. but well they dont work :)

i play the same way and have to admit, you can find almost anything in those small villages but guns are super rare... i found 1 mosin in a barn after the last patch, thats it till now...

i really like the idea of bloodtrails, allows you to search for wounded players ...

orlok mentioned removing volume clouds, because not needed (not aircrafts)

if there is a chance of knochout its ok, but only if you are not wearing any protective head gear... dont let people you dont know and cant trust get near you.... i always keep my distance. And if someone sneaks up to you its your fault in the end. PS: but i would like to see an option do defend yourself (raise your arms/hands to your face) ...

i thought helicopters or even small civilian airplanes are planned for the future? i would love to see ultralight aviation stuff in the future, just two seats... :)

does the burlap sack work correctly with post processign deactived?

currently announced minimum specs are also only for the alpha, i guess those could be changed for the final release. lets face it, those are settings that have a huge impact on gameplay and i think its a good thing in a survival game. someone who is badly hurt with huge bloodloss isnt as capable as someone who is completly healthy. to turn something like this off even if its in the official settings is just ruining the game and gives people an enormous advantage over others that keep the setting activated. Well its an early alpha but i hope they have some settings forced in the future, or atleast make it a server decision. so every player on a server suffers the same influences...

I think some settings should be forced, at least on hardcore servers.... or the have to get rid of things like blurry if hurt completly. Its just a huge advantage over people who play as its meant to be, and this is annoying! This sounds maybe a bit arrogant but if your system doesnt handle it you may just cant play the game, its normal that new games with new affects dont work well on system without the power, you cant blame anyone for that... you cant blame sony because the ps3 game doesnt work on the ps2.

well completly random spawns would be really annoying... just imagine playing with a friend and you always have to walk 15-20 minutes until you meet again even tho you logged out at the same location. but i think no logout zones are a good idea... logging out is resting! you wouldnt do this in a dangerous area... if forcequit or server crash -> random spawn near the no logout zone. this would fix the really annoying backstabbing after you leave are just looted area.

not being able to put on the torch when wearing other head gear doesnt make sense at all... this needs to be fixed soon. Right now they are useless imo, its allready dangerous to use a flashlight with a helmet ;)

i think its ok but not if you are wearing any protective head gear... i doubt this would be possible with a bike helmet on but if there is someone without just make it a 1/3 chance thing of nocking someone out.

i like more variety... but imo those foods should spawn less when they introduced the hunting part of the game...

same goes for post processing and blurry vision if hurt... i hope they add restrictions in the future so you cant join hardcore servers for example if you have played with your settings to get an advantage.
