tropiK (DayZ)

I use to play DayZ on an Asus G75. It will run it pretty damn close to max settings. I don't know about Total War but most games it can run on high/highest settings... for now anyway :/

You sure you wanna ride a train in DayZ?

Done.

I use 3rd person when im outside and theres nothing blocking my view. If im inside a structure or im chill'n somewhere and theres, say, a tree in my face, then I'll be in 1st person.

No. You don't need both to run DayZ. We just like to fuck with people. Now that I got that out of the way. Yes, you also need ArmA 2.

A friend and myself were talking about alternatives to the glorious beans found in DayZ. MREs came up as an alternative or an addition to beans. A real MRE can easily last you a day, at least, so we'll say one MRE in DayZ can last you for 3 meals. Similar to ammo, there would be a green bar next to the MRE in your inventory that would represent the number of meals you have left before the MRE is gone. Of course MREs would be a rarer form of food. Just an idea...

Barracks, HELOs and hunting other players.

Don't need a sniper rifle to shoot through a real flak jacket... Anyway I've always thought this would be a good addition and it seem like one that would eventually be implemented anyway. In my mind you'd have your flak jacket take up a couple inventory slots, like OP said, and on top of that you'll run a bit slower because if thr added weight if sapi plates and such. But it can protect you from pistols all the way intermediate rifle rounds, potentially. So for instance, say you have your flak on and u get shot in the chest by a M4. You have a 50/50 chance to take damage or not. That sort of thing... That's what I would like to see anyway.

All my want.

Good thing rjmcfarlands opinion isn't the end-all deciding factor in what does or does not go into this game. Anyway. I've never thought about it but this is actually a good idea. Though I think eating human flesh should have a more negative effect then just a different skin. Maybe if you consume enough you run slower or something. I think if a skin is going to be used then bandit skins should be brought back too. This would create a Cannibal faction, who kill others for sustenance, then your bandits who kill for loot and of course your survivors who don't go out of their way to do either. All-in-all, the more I think about it, the more I like the idea. And all the people who are disgusted at the idea. What do you think would happen in a situation like what is portrayed in DayZ. Lack of food and resources and you think some people wouldnt resort to cannibalism? Come on now...
