The ONLY Realistic Way to Prevent Deathmatching: Make DayZ a Living Hell
Benito replied to Time Glitch's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Well that was an interesting read, but it would require a lot of work to get any of this usable but DayZ is only in Alpha, so I hope Rocket takes into consideration some of this at least ;) -
Almost always pick up the rifle if you are going to be staying South and in the cities, due to PvP but if you're just wandering town to town and surviving, the Hatchet might be a better choice due to it being completely silenced to zombies. (Also if you're at the top of a ladder as it's technically a gun with really short fall off range if you hit off the ladder/roof and there's a zombie at the bottom it will hit the zombie...) As any rifles you'll pick up will attract a rather large hoard quickly if you start firing in town.

Definitely looking good :D

*phew* well that was quick and painless, good job :D

Bus VS. cherno, electro 50 man server.
Benito replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Just saying shouldn't this be in the gallery :p or DayZ general, not the off topic general ;) Wish you'd have been playing the music through the Direct comms and honking the horn while driving around as that would've been beautiful -
Hah, now that would've sucked xD So did all of you die then :p
-
Stary sobor seems to be turning into the small town to go to for a shoot out as recently there are far more bandits around that area, or just people in general and it is fairly odd. Server hopping... My Jimmies are rustled.
-
Not sure what to say, it's ok I guess but it's just like the million other DayZ survival videos so :shrug:
-
I've heard this story happening to my friends before now. It's not a huge thing and I'm not bothered if they don't add it but it'd be nice. Just not as default on any button you can easily press by accident.
-
haha, well at least he's having the item of his short-short-short... short life... :D
-
Can I just remind everyone that this game is still in Alpha and technically shouldn't even be playing except for a very small minority. So these are the problems we will have to face until someone can find the perfect solution then get it implemented to stop the infuriating DCing and server hopping gear-whores.

A richer hunting system with more animals...crafting
Benito replied to Hendrix (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I would also like "alot" added http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_D_Z-D2tzi14/S8TRIo4br3I/AAAAAAAACv4/Zh7_GcMlRKo/s400/ALOT.png... Hah sorry had to. I really like this idea as crafting and more animals would be awesome stuff to help contribute to endgame :D -
People evacuating an area in disaster zones will barricade their houses before leaving, to better protect the property while taking the majority of their stuff. I assume a lot of the zombies come from people just starting to evacuate but failing to, as there would be more military camps set up if evacuation had gone well. Oh well it is just a video game and this is how the engine acts, whatever makes sense to you headcanon goes then.

How do you know it wasn't multiple people, maybe a clan that had set up an Ambush point? Very quick to jump the gun here but may as well say thanks for the warning
-
I think that you should spawn with 1 food and 1 water (maybe a canteen but doesn't really matter) in addition to what you currently have. As being honest spawning without a weapon is only a problem for the first few times you run into a group of zombies flailing and unsure of what's happening. It focuses the start game more on surviving as a human rather than shoot-em up zombies. Plus spawning with food/water will really help out new players to understanding the components of the game quickly and easily. Plus it means when you spawn it's slightly less of a frantic run to the nearest town for the food, but I understand some players do like that theme.

People...WTF is wrong with you?
Benito replied to lukasforeals's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I don't see why OP is so bothered, as I honestly wouldn't be if I was freshly spawned. Guy was an idiot for shooting you, I wonder how much ammo he wasted on zombies after firing that thing thought :D -
Nope do not like the regeneration. Unless it was INCREDIBLY slow over the course of days to regen said health and only if you're at good food/water/temp as that's what should happen. As otherwise it does become too "gamey" imo

Game just feels lonely without side chat.
Benito replied to kurtino's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Maybe they could fix this by giving global chat to people with radios, but honestly I don't miss it as the people I've encountered have been happy just to chat rather than kill each other until we head on our separate ways. -

bring back the normal zombie agro system now! 0.o
Benito replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Rocket has already stated numerous times that Zombies are far from perfect right now and that it'll take "multiple patches" before he'll be happy with how they act. I agree they are slightly too hard right now but I do not want them to go back to the "minefield" style where you could just crawl through all of them no problem if you actually paid attenton. -
Yup definitely agree with this, but maybe implement a chance of catching an infection/disease when drinking it from the source as if you have a canteen you will most likely have a filtration system built in.
-
Aww man that sucks. I've had similar happening to me a few times while looting the airfields but something I've noticed every time is that I spawn bleeding for no reason and it's fairly annoying as I'm running out of bandages...
-
Yes there are. What ones are enabled in the current server version as I thought all of them have been removed due to the silly lag caused?
-
Regular Vs Veteran Vs Expert Differences?
Benito replied to archangelalien's topic in New Player Discussion
Mainly it's the removal of any tags when you look at someone and the removal of the green crosshairs. The rest like 3rd person is down to the Admin settings, but generally they are disabled in the Veteran servers. No idea what the difference between Veteran and expert servers are, I just assume that they are the same as never noticed a difference myself. -
Help - Stuck at "Loading" screen
Benito replied to peters (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
I experience the exact same problems but only when my ping exceeds around 150, when it's lower I can connect fine to the vast majority of servers. Yet when it hits over that, in come the infinite load screens and bad server versions.
