This is exactly what I've been thinking about. Brings also up the point when base building gets implemented, a small group would be able to hold off a small location, whilst a bigger group can hold off a small village. (Setting up walls, and defending them when a lot of zombies starts to claw at the wall and a lot of zombies will eventually break it down if left unguarded). Inspiration: Woodbury.

DayZ is meant to be a game for people who seek the hardcore experience, fast travel got implemented in games to make it easier for lazy people, I'd be fine if Skyrim didn't have fast travel. If you honestly think this is a good idea than this game is not for you.

Wait, what? --->

Both the police station and the medical centre has been in game ever since Svetlojarsk got added.

What crypts?

Don't think they need new items to accommodate the ones who want to throw their weapons, just throw the kitchen knife or the bayonet knife.

I agree that the crossbow should not be a one shot kill. I think it should have a major impact on the poor sod who gets hit though, the bolt would leave a pretty nasty wound, even worse if you pull it out without getting medical help, then there's the whole deal with infections if the shaft is rusted. I'd say that the crossbow should have a lot of consequences later down the line to the victim.

I'd definitely like to see an expanded amount of traps, I think the classic bear trap will be in the game undoubtedly, but the spike trap would be really REALLY cool to have. The underground tunnels look really cool as well, I know the devs talked about underground bases, but now they're talking about barricading and making actual bases (Which I would assume to be similar to Epoch?). Hell, I'd like to see both!

That really depends on your playstyle, if you hang around civilization, perhaps you don't have to. But me and my pals (especially at night) wander off into the uknown quite frequently, for example, we've recently made it our mission to go to the very north-west where, on the map, says there's nothing. We want to see if we can actually find something of interest, but if there's going to be a big wasteland with no houses, then bringing food and drink with you for the hike would be an exceptionally good thing to do in order to ensure your survival. We also made a venture to the very north part of the map to scout out the cliffs, we also tried to find a certain location up there which we never did. We had quite the struggle finding our way back and we both nearly died of dehydration.

Alright. Don't quote me on this as I am no military/gun expert, but I think reloading a magazine is much easier than chambering a round.

I think this would work, but private hive would also solve it. Whichever comes first I guess.

Haha! Nice :D

I have mixed feelings about this, as it is now I like the fact that you have to open your inventory, take the round from there and put it into your gun, the fumbling of it all makes a resemblance to real life and how you would pull the bullet out of your pants yourself and putting it in the gun. You see what I mean?

I just remember the epic feeling I got when I heard its rotors in the distance and then it flew above me as I was doing my thing. Felt pretty cool.

The majority of the listed vehicles sounds to be already in the mod. I also think that 70% of them do not belong, I support on a lot of civilian vehicles but no exotic ones. I can also support on a military helicopter, the huey from the mod wasn't that bad in my opinion, in terms of it being 'OP' (Never got to see/fly one though, lol)

I enjoy the nights, it really brings out the creepiness of the game, sadly, gamma exploits and people leaving makes it less fun. Private Hive, anyone?

You definitely don't need to go where everyone else goes, if anything you should head the other direction. Seems to me that you bought the game after a friend said it was pretty cool and you have otherwise no experience. I'm not trying to be rude, but play it more and think outside of the box, try your best to survive. It almost feels like this was your first 20 minutes of playing and now you make a post saying 'Now what?' as if you've experienced the whole game.

To the people I randomly met in Svetlojarsk like 5 minutes ago. Was a really cool enocunter, we reached a number of like 7 people and then we went along the railway in the middle of the night with our torches out. My frist big group friendly encounter. Sadly, my game crashed and I didn't get to know your names!

It was a 100 player server on experimental. ;)

I agree that adding an airport would be interesting, like in the north west there's a lot of nothing and a lot of room to add stuff. It should not be a big airport though, as the country is fairly small and (It's pretty shit).

I really don't like 24/7 daytime servers, so I never join them. It is then I realize... All servers (The majority) ARE 24/7 daytime even if it doesn't say it in the server browser. It will start at 12:00, go to about 16:00, then restart and go back to 12:00. Experiencing dawn or dusk is one of the coolest things in this game and I definitely want to play night time, I just hope it'll be like in the mod with time zones and so on.

Here it displays how much it restores: http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Banana

Looks good, although I think that it would be very rare to find, maybe in a museum or something similar.
