Post your imaginary patch notes that you'd love to see

[NEW] Fart or barf on your friends to find out if they are real and not ghosts -
I have traded before. Once with sniper cover from someone, once on my own while the other guy brought his buddy and watched me approach. Both times we agreed on when/where, on a low pop server so both parties could see if there were a sudden influx of connects for an ambush. I emptied my entire kit minus backpack into my tents and took nothing but the trade material and both times it was switched backpack to backpack when I met the other person. We did the trade, everybody checked their gear to make sure nothing was missing, then everyone made cheesy 80s car salesman grins at the cameras while we blasted away into the nearest treeline to the sound of extravagant hair metal and logged back into our usual servers. Bob's your diddly. An important point is to get them on voice comms and have a chat while you're doing it. I wouldn't do it without someone who isn't willing to come into mumble with me and chill for the ~15 minutes it takes. People aren't all bad, and it's a lot harder to shoot someone you're having a laugh with and talking to in real time. The most difficult part is actually hoofing it to wherever you've agreed to trade but it can - and has - gone smoothly, I'm sure it's easy enough to gauge beforehand who's going to be legit and who isn't. Some people tell me I'm too trusting.

Tips on finding crashed helis?
ijswezel replied to survivor_40's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I found one yesterday chilling out in a field north of Grishino. It was the first one I'd seen since 1.5.8 dropped, so it's been a fair while. After killing all the zombies around it (man, I love the look of those pilot zombies) I spent a good ten minutes or so trying to get into the chopper but there was absolutely no way to interact with it or open a gear menu, so I moved on, assuming they're still broken. Still, I a bit every time I find one -
Of the three tent spawns I have found while playing, twice I have found tents in outdoor lavatories. I know you've got to get used to it being full of other people's farts eventually, but come on.

So what are the "unofficial" signs for being friendly?
ijswezel replied to Oddball_E8's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The few times I have seen another person and he hasn't immediately turned me into a human sized watering can, we both spent a couple seconds with pistols out looking at the sky and then looking back down at the ground. The characters do this weird raise the roof style thing and it seems to work for me. But then again 90% of people I either let pass and they don't see me to begin with or they straight up get a DMR round to the back of the head BEFORE they see me if it turns out they are going to interfere with my relentless quest to get my M107 back. -
What's your preferable server settings?
ijswezel replied to silent (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm a masochistic bastard so I really enjoy crawling around in the dark on veteran servers bumping into zombies, trying not to grenade myself to death and pooping my tactical pants. -
"It's at that point I realised that the mescaline I had taken when I laid on the floor in the living room in pitch black had been rather potent. I was in the middle of the street with my shoes on my hands, shouting and screaming at an overturned wheelie bin because I was terrified that all the trash inside were ghosts trying to come out and eat me."

stop posting about castles goddamn it it's a lumber yard and apart from that there's trees
-
It's a couple buildings and a small lumber yard you can't get in and further up is a barn that likes to spawn firewood. There is a cow near the barn that won't let you close until you answer three riddles about why there is a cow in eastern europe pitching you riddles.
