Is there going to be some Battle Royale in the Standalone like in the mod? I have seen some videos of Silo playing Battle Royale on youtube and it looks epic. Anyone know if this is going to be a cool extra way to play this awesome game?

For a game that is striving to be a realistic survival horror simulator wouldn't it be appropriate to have gore in game? I mean right now we don't even have blood. I'm talking about realistic amounts of blood, realistic decapitations from 7.62 round hits, grenades and IED's that tear people in half . I want to see Zombies that can be chopped up and that don't de-spawn as fast so people would see the devastation that went before them. I genuinely feel these things would definitely add to the overall immersion of the game. I would love this game to add more horror to this game and i believe that more gore could add so much more to this game. Would you like to see more horror and gore in this game?

I enjoyed this game when it was at build 0.29 for a short period of time and then the seriously buggy zombies quickly stopped being funny and became tedious and frustrating. We are now at build 0.48 and the game feels like it hasn't taken any steps forward. All the severe problems from when i first bought this game are still very much here and even though the patch notes states that the simple things have been fixed like zombies going through walls i am still very much seeing the same things i was seeing 9 months ago. Im wondering if there is something seriously wrong with development now and that this game will most likely never be finished. I wonder how long it will take before all the people screaming alpha finally accept that this whole project has been a disaster.

Wehrmacht never wore swastika's on there uniforms it was the Waffen SS that wore swastika's. The Wehrmacht had the iron cross and the eagle that i dont know what it was called on their uniform. I would imagine that it would be perfectly fine for them to add in some Wehrmacht gear without worry of people screaming some neo-nazi bullshit.
-
People do only spawn in the NE but i believe the biggest problem with people not being in the SW is that there are not enough slots on the server. I believe we need at the very least 70 players on Chernarus to get a decent amount of action on the whole of the map.
-
It would be real nice if we could have a little hand spade that takes up maybe 2 slots in our inventory for those that like to dig for worms rather than having to waste all that precious inventory space by carrying a full size shovel around. Just a thought!

Is it worth buying Dayz standalone yet? [With Developer responses]
jameslennoxhood replied to Blade4777980's topic in General Discussion
To answer your questions The game has barely progressed at all in the 6 months that it has been out The next update is about 2 weeks overdue and there is chronic rubberbanding in experimental where they are testing the said update (im starting to think that they have truly broken the game now) Hackers are rife to the point where there are at least multiple per server, you go to a high traffic area like Berenzino and you will have all of your hard earned gear lost due to cheaters. This game is a complete waste of money. Do not waste your money on this cash grab give it another 6 months and when the game has progressed next to nothing again realise that you just saved yourself $30. -

DayZ Bait and Switch The intention of the bait-and-switch is to encourage purchases of substituted goods, making consumers satisfied with the available stock offered, as an alternative to a disappointment or inconvenience of acquiring no goods (or bait) at all, and reckoning on a seemingly partial recovery of sunk costs expended trying to obtain the bait. It suggests that the seller will not show the original product or service advertised but instead will demonstrate a more expensive product or a similar product with a higher margin. -

Shooting and you ... or me as example
jameslennoxhood replied to TyrDaishi's topic in General Discussion
You have to use the zeroing, it is page up and page down by default. if you know the distance and dial it in its easy as pie, ive killed people at Balota from the rooftops at Chapaesk, which is 800 metres. :) -
Plan for release of 0.45 to Stable
jameslennoxhood replied to SmashT's topic in News & Announcements
Wow, still no patch? It seems that they have properly fucked it up this time. :( -
I realised from playing about 5 minutes that the game is just an open world deathmatch. And i have played it this way ever since.
-
Dude, you have to learn the places where those things happen and avoid them, they aren't going to fix them. I'm assuming its because they cant. Hell, in Arma 3 you can get sucked through the floors and die and BI cant or wont fix them either, and there is no Alpha excuse for that game it has been out for like 9 months lol. Sad but unfortunately true.
-
Should be able to use it to have an asphyxiwank on door frames and trees and such, obviously with the risk of death and being seen. Would increase immersion i feel. Just like how they plan to add pooping in game i can see this being implemented.

So is desync finally a thing of the past? Due to the new netcode system?

Shotgun most worthless weapon the game?
jameslennoxhood replied to Wexoch's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, my experience of the shotgun is a 2 shot kill to the body, even on fresh spawns and always at close range. No way is it realistic at all, one shot at close range will destroy anyone!! -
So how much of a thrill do you cheaters get when playing DayZ?
jameslennoxhood replied to Grimey Rick's topic in General Discussion
That is a crazy amount of hours in an Alpha game lol. I managed to get 250 hours in Standalone but then i found Breaking Point and at that moment I chose not too play the Standalone again until they fix the fucking Zombies. I think it is kinda embarrassing for the Standalone devs that a mod for Arma 3 is currently better than the Standalone with better working zombies, gun play, less cheaters and updating more frequently (daily mostly). Ive got probably 50 hours outta Breaking Point so far. Arma 3 has been the best money i have spent in a while especially with a 2017 mod and an Epoch mod due to come out for it very soon, im going to spend a lot of hours in it that's for sure. -

Remove night-time for now, until it's fixed?
jameslennoxhood replied to TheGreatPerson's topic in General Discussion
90% of people who play at night can see absolutely fine and don't even need a flashlight! All they do is turn the gamma up and whoo hoo, night time is irrelevant!! -
Well DayZ Standalone has sold well over 2 million copies and id imagine that quite of few of those copies will have been bought by vegetarians. With hunting coming out at the end of the month, i was wondering how these vegetarians would survive in this harsh environment. Will you do what it takes to survive by hunting and eating everything possible? Or will you still get by quite happily on beans and peaches everyday but risking starvation at every turn? Wouldn't killing animals for food not go against everything you have stood for your entire life? Perhaps you will only eat meat if you absolutely must to ensure your survival? Thoughts my vegetarian friends? James
