How about removing the ability to break bones till they fix it,

I could see these ideas being implemented towards the end, small things like this add to realism. Torches and poncho are a must in final release

I haven't tried machete since last update, but every melee weapon I came across was useless mate.I picked up a hacksaw, and killed a zombie in one hit, I thought ok maybe hacksaw isn't broken, but then I couldn't repeat this. No matter how many times I hit a zombie and made him bleed just couldn't kill it. I got so upset to the point I said f**k it I will stand still and test this hacksaw. While zombie was hitting me I lined up my crosshair to his head, nothing, above his head nothing, blood spurting every time I hit it. Surely not long I get "you are unconscious" screen. You can call this alpha but it is game breaking along glitching through walls. I also think this has nothing to do with alpha stage but rather a broken engine. I was eager to criticise devs for being too lazy and slow, however I think poor buggers are busy fixing the engine.

I would prefer the slower but larger number of zombies as seen in walking dead. Best portrayed in 7d2d, and even though they are slow, they are still a big threat. One on one they are easy to get rid off, but towns are very hard to loot if you don't have a large amount of ammo. I don't like anything about current dayz infected. They run fast, glide even faster, completely ruined in last update. Impossible to kill if you don't have any ammo. Can kill you in one hit, and killing them is a lottery, sometimes can kill them with one hit, sometimes you just can't kill them at all. They have no hearing capabilities, unless it's a gunshot. Yes I know alpha.

I love spawning in unknown area. Its challenging. Op is just pissed off he didnt spawn inside police station with m4 with scope in front of him. To the side full ammo clip and outside another fresh spawn with a big target sign on his back.

I have an original name "Infected- Survivor Tales".

Something similar was suggested, however rather than having messages, how about devs work on improving sound and vision. Example, as you suggested "I smell fire" rather than a msg, how about a white cloud of smoke rising. Also sounds, birds taking flight when a player enters a scene.

Wow you must be so cool, oh wait you play video games, coolness out a window. You probably live in your moms basement as well

Ha ah sorry my original quote, the op only wanted a more accurate gun aim, nothing about reduced food, funny how posts turn out

How dare you tell him to leave the coast, how is he supposed to bully those weaker than him. I mean he is only complaining because someone else has an upper hand. These a**holes need to be dealt with immediately, so op and his friends can go back to killing fresh spawn. Shame on you MaxRain. ;)

Fair enough, but at the moment shooting someone has nothing to do with food or starving. It just makes you either lazy or koser, especially shooting someone who is nowhere near you.

Helicopters are on the way, not sure if they will be armed. Unfortunately we have large groups consisting of mainly friends outside a game, and usually do not let anyone join in, so we have some single players like myself who are picked on by these groups. These groups will obtain parts for helicopters, cars etc. faster then us single players, making them even bigger bullies.

We had a couple of major helicopter threads, the last one I agree with you was in favour of less modern weaponry, however the previous one, I was overrun by cod kiddies wanting to attach machine guns to helicopters and cars. Well yes melee weapons are crap compared to guns, and only an idiot would pick a bat and not a gun in a fight, but melee weapons are more of strategic weapons. Would you waste a bullet on a single z when you can easily remove it with a bat (sorry these rules do not apply in dayz), and risk giving your position away or draw more z's to you. Perfect example is 7d2d, especially when looting a town, you do not use a gun unless u need to.

So are most handguns, but still doesnt stop people requesting more

Well the helicopter threads are pages long and fiream weapons threads heavily outnumber melle weapons threads.

It seems me and you want a similar game, however 99% others want pvp death match with lasers and superguns, unfortunately devs will take their side as thats where the money is.

Trying to play this game stealthily, using trees to camouflage myself. That went down the drain quickly as this little line in far distance as far as eye could see, just happened to have its raycast line pointing in my direction, and it took that little line 5 min to sprint like hussain bolt (yes thats how far it was away) to get to me, it was one of those super infected that have vision to put superman to shame. After many blood releasing blows to its head and once getting hit by this jumping athletic creature, which just happened to make me bleed and also ruin half of my gear, it reminded me why i havent played this game in a long time, so i put it away again

Tents, and stashable loot should have been implemented before the release of alpha , its amazing how few have only asked for this, most want cars and helicopters

I have no problems reading cyrillic, and it does add authenticity to the game however most places have both cyrillic and latin on welcome boards, most bigger towns nowadays display "welcome to... " in english as well.

And you would shoot a person from 300+ yards, why? Was he a threat, did he have that one can of beans which you really needed because you were going to starve to death? You would risk loosing that bullet which could save your life later on, why?Oh sorry my apologies i thought we were playing apocalyptic survival game not a pvp war game. Please go on.

How hard? I would like to at least once die from starvation or thirst not from a full clip out of an m4. I would like to at least once die from a zombie horde that cornered me due to my bad judgment, and not by a single athletic zombie.

Ha ha im like chuck norris when i blink my eyelids stay still its the rest of the body that lifts.Clearly there are issues with development of dayz, and i fear this will destroy the game completely. By the time its finished, graphics will be outdated, newer better games will be released.

I'd turn zombie for her

Well different games have different meanings of an alpha. Dayz takes about 5 months to add berries and apples , 7d2d takes a week to completely redo their terrain, then another week to completely redo their crafting gui. Couple of days ago i was in steam and saw one of my games is updating, and i thought oh dear god is it dayz, am i finally going to be able to hunt, i was dissapointed when i saw it was 7d2d that was updating, that game doesnt need to be updated, it is beta stage already in my opinion. Also i was told games need to release place holders before working on glitches, looks like someone forgot to tell that to 7d2d devs

This thread op is what many of dayz players are like. They want an easy game, might as well remove hunger and thirst its only a nuisance to them and prevents them from that much faster getting ammo and guns. Bring all the police and army barracks together in one place so they dont have to waste any time walking. This game just isnt being played the way it was imagined it would.
