    Rural exploration (keepin' it rural!)

    They did at one point mention that they would like to add an underground. How cool would it be to stumble upon some doomsdayer's underground bunker hidden in a barn? I would rack out there in a heartbeat, especially once barricading is implemented!

    Binoculars

    I often use my LRS on my Mosin to scout out ahead. I'm guilty of sitting in a bush for twenty minutes staring at the streets of a city to see if they are populated. Sometimes it works. Sometimes, people spawn in after you cleared a zone...

    Bow & Arrow - Quiver - Compound

    Welcome to the forum. Please use the search function. Like Guppy said, they are already being implemented. Crossbows, too!

    Bicycle Suggestions/Discussion [Official]

    They have already stated that they are working on the vehicle system. Physics was JUST added to the game. That was step one. They also stated that the bicycle would be the first vehicle added. Look a little deeper and you would see that what you want is already in motion. Read patch notes. Watch dev blogs. Listen to the Alpha reminder.

    Im not a hero, im not a bandit....

    A guy in my group has a blood-curdling zombie scream that makes the in-game zombie sounds sound like kittens dancing in daisies. He charged at a group of two guys as a bambi doing it one time. He managed to take one of them with his fists and the other guy just stopped and said "I don't even care if I die, that was frickin hillarious!" If I just heard the noise he makes and couldn't see him or a zombie (or a rabbit) I would just hard kill my laptop. Nope nope nope.

    Rural exploration (keepin' it rural!)

    I would make the switch. Right now, cities and airstrips dominate while lots of cities go untouched. There are actually some awesome towns and military bases inland that are rarely touched because 1. They aren't a big city and 2. they aren't an airstrip. Everyone knows how to get to those, but nobody knows the backwoods...

    The Gun of your Choice

    I had a blaze with 7 snap loaders on my hardcore character before he died. I loved that thing. If I put the front sight post on it, it was hit. So accurate! I was hitting zeds at 300m no problem.

    Zombies Ruining Gear in one hit!?!?!?

    Never keep valuable stuff in your pants. All it takes is for one set of stairs to glitch, break your legs, and everything is gone. I have had this happen too many times. I keep a compass, a can opener, my completed map, a New Testament, and a couple of useless items in my pants. Maps, compass, and can openers can be used even in ruined condition. Same goes for books. Everything else is either food or something of lesser value.

    using pistol while on ladder

    Scenario: You are running from a hoard of zombies lured from a haphazard shot you fired mere seconds earlier to incapacitate one of their kind. Up ahead you see a hospital with a roof access ladder on the side. That is your only chance. A glance over your shoulder reveals a dozen zombies at varying distances keeping on your trail. You slam into the ladder with not a second to spare in slowing down. Hand, foot, hand, foot, hand,fo-- Gah! The zed you hit earlier that didn't go down has your ankle in its cold grasp. You shake and kick, but it doesn't yield. You hook one arm around the rung and with the other grab the .45 from your waistband. Your hand is shaking as what used to be alive tries to welcome you to their starved midst. You fire once, twice. The grip loosens and you are able to yank your leg free. Another zombie lunges and you stop him cold with two to the chest. The rest are closing in now, standing on their comrades. You let loose the other two rounds and shove the warm barrel back into your waistband and reach for the heavens. Yeah, I would play that.

    Remove Payday Masks from Game

    Twilight Sparkle masks would be lame. Rainbow Dash masks, however... that's money.

    Bipod alternatives

    This would be cool. Also, when barricading and the likes are implemented, you could place a sandbag or make a pile of sandbags to stabilize on.

    What do a mute person do?

    I'm sure a lot of people have offered, but you're welcome to play with me (PM for steam name). I even am in a group that are fun and like to mix it up a lot. Also, don't gotta worry about flirtation (from me at least, I'm married.)

    Funny first experience.

    I died of hunger trying to get my flashlight to work...
  14. Honestly, I would rather have slow zombies in an IRL situation. Fast zombies are frickin terrifying. Fortunately, zombies are now a real threat and need to be dealt with accordingly. Yes, spawning is broken. You can bet that they are drawing up ways to fix it. Apparently, the zombies are caused by the "Brain Fever" or something along those lines. These are more like Resident Evil Zombies where they were living, became sick, died, and were instantly reanimated. How the virus works, they could still have some functioning internal systems. They don't look terribly rotted, after all. Just bloody and pale. They bleed, too. Maybe some sort of vascular system is still functional. Arteries still working and the lesser veins are shriveled up? Anyways, running zombies are plausible and are most certainly the kind of challenge this game needs to keep the focus away from PvP and more on PvE.

    Remove Payday Masks from Game

    We just need a Guy Fawkes mask. Add that, and I'll be mistaken for a bandit without end. That mask needs to be implemented :/ It is too universal to be left out! Also, I used to wear the Wolf mask because it looks frickin sweet! A group I ran into (and who didn't KoS me) let me join them then said, after we moved to the next town, that I should take it off because "it makes you look like a bandit." I hadn't even thought of that and was still fresh to the bandit concept (only had like 20+ hours on the game). I took it off, but occasionally I throw one on for old times' sake. It looks cool and is a good identifier. But still... Guy Fawkes mask. Let's make this happen!
  16. It is pretty messed up, but like you said things were very different. Just look at Joseph. His brothers sold him into slavery because he was the favorite. I'm sure every child held a special place in his heart, but he ended up with even more children to treasure. Also, I think his children were married, so they weren't infantile and were at the point of looking after themselves in addition to the family.

    Tent Loot

    They need furniture... Throw in some cots, duffel bags, and cases and you got yourself a REAL tent ;)
  18. Wish I could play to experience the fast hordes of zombies everyone is talking about :/ Good thing I swapped out all my bandages for rags...

    AKM

    If they add the M1903 I would drop my fully loaded pristine camo Mosin with LRS and 120+ 7.62 rounds and grab one in a heartbeat. I am familiar with the rifle (we had them in JROTC) and absolutely love it. In one of the wars, I think it was Korea or Vietnam that had tales of a sniper using an M1903. He had the most confirmed sniper kills of any marksman in the war and used only iron sights. True beast mode.
  20. Car battery,jumper cables, and a clothes hanger? Sounds like a plan!

    This game needs a lever-action rifle!

    I believe it was a knock-off enfield or something along those lines. It was a forgery, but it was still there.
  22. Wiping your nose when you are sick. Would be a good idle action.

    hot key to turn on/off headlamp?

    I think there is an option in your key mapping, actually, that you can assign to headlamp. It might have a default key, too.

    This game needs a lever-action rifle!

    Darn tootin'! If you don't like leverguns, yer a commie! I kid, I kid. The thing is, lever-actions are so widespread and are such a popular weapon that you can find them anywhere. I have even found some in Afghanistan!

    Zombies with loot

    It has been talked about already and I believe it is intended to come at some point. People have mentioned military zombies carrying ammo and the such. What I want to see are zombie-only loot items. Maybe some desirable clothing that only zombies have and maybe some really useful utility items (GPS, some sort of medical item [Maybe an extremely rare spawn of a cure to brain fever?], some special knife/rifle/weapon, and some other knick knacks that only somebody who had been living would carry [photgraphs, letters, pendants, bizarre sentimental items]). The possibilities are endless. But yes, dissenfectant would be a necessity as well as a sewing kit...
