  1. Urrrmm what are you guys doing in here? You had me thinking something new happened!

    Don't be afraid

    "Balancing, structure, rules, protection. These are what the game industry has shoved in your face for the last twenty years. Even the game industry itself can't escape it. EVE-Online tried briefly but caved in. Why? Money. They needed subscribers." - R Games should not be easy IMHO. I like a challenge in any game I play, and any game that doesnt give that to me I am not interested in. Thats my opinion, mabe its a bit pampered by a year of DayZ, but thats why it was/is so immensely popular, because its different, difficult, unforgiving and hard to master. Now about sniper rifles: For realism's sake they need to be harder to shoot, keep stable, maintain, and ultimately hit something with them. Example: I first got my hands on a scoped hunting rifle a few months back. At 300 meters I could hardly hit a thing. Getting good with it takes time. Its not just point and press the trigger. Ergo they should be more realistic IMHO.

    Poll: Vanilla?

    Yes I would play on a vanilla server! I've actually been looking for one for my clan and me but have been having trouble finding one. I do have a few in mind but am looking for more options. Vanilla FTW! Also a few tiny changes to the Chernarus map I think would be in order to balance it out a bit. Rgds

    No more 50 cals!

    Its great that they removed the .50s, but I think, as Gews said, there should be some alternative: the Lapua, with the few changes Gews suggested in his thread. Agreed also about helis. Remove Huey, keep Mi8 and maybe add some other Russian ones? If any?
  5. Wait! Whaaa..? This cannot be right... It would be impossible to not have the scrolling system with so many actions that are being implemented...

    Best DayZ YouTubers

    Shameless Advertising eh Anarchy? :P I like it! I usually watch Oshi7, PsiSyndicate, sacriel and the squad, and some other small 'uns... But why revive the thread? :P Edit: DAAAAAMN you God! Or does it not work like that? ninja'd

    Earning Persistent Gear in SA

    Agreed. Life of character should be important tot "death". Rocket is thinking about something adding skills that will make your character feel important and not just his gear. But no HUD and gamey stuff like that. You wont get any *ding* "You have leveled up! You can now do X/Y!" It will be more subtle. Say after fixing many many different car parts you will be able to do it better/faster or fine tune car parts. So next time you go to fix an engine or something, more options will appear that where no previously there. Of course there will be a chance that you break what you are trying to fix/add depending on your skill. This is later in development though, and also second hand info. But R is very into making the character you have feel important to you and your mates, than just his gear.

    RP Server?

    Try this out. You have to get whitelisted in order to play on their servers. http://www.dayzrp.com/ Kill on Sight is not allowed on these RP servers. Otherwise if you mind bandits robbing/killing you just join an empty server. Regards! PM if you need any other help! :P
  9. This is a good idea. With the minor changes to Damage and Mil Dots of course. It also looks pretty darn cool.
  10. Make Sniper Rifles harder to shoot, hit and maintain. No nerf. Nerfing is stupid.

    Did I choose a good Area for a camp?

    Best place IMO is Klen. Had a few tents and chopper there for 2 months.

    VANILLA DayZ - Brains of Britain

    Hello there Bud! Just letting you know that the clan and I will most probably be joining your servers to play on from june and after. If I have enough people we will probably populate your second server or maybe even both. We shall see. On UK#1 what kind of PvP do you get ? I mean is it mostly one timers on the coast with enfields or do most go up north and live to play on your server for many another day? Thanks See you in game. I'll probs pop round your TS too to say hi just to let you know the onslaught of Greeks is about to commence.
  13. Look, June (or anyway suspected release) is fast approaching. Remember though the DayZ Standalone will be very much an alpha when it first releases. So my advice is to get it now (or wait for a juicy steam sale) to get a feel for the concept and general game stuffs. Anyway ArmA2 offers way more content than just DayZ (loooads of awesome community mods and maps etc.) so if you like a challenge you should get it anyway. Daamn ninja'd. Edit: But as said above the SA could well be july or even august. Things are very fluid atm.

    Crafting Suggestions (no discussion)

    Input Rags/clothes, rope and/or duct tape Output Primitive Shoes/ Boot Mufflers Tools - FailChance 0 Enchantments Shoes for a short while or muffle boots to not make sounds while walking. ActionType recipe I hope Matt is looking at this and taking notes for SA ideas! All Most of these should be in SA.

    The 1.7.7 update favorites

    This patch seems to be awesome!! Bring it on R4Z0R!! Nice to hear you're making it more difficult! I just don't like that you are completely taking out all the military weapons with attachments. It would make sense to keep them in but just make them rarer. Also I am having some doubts on the whole crafting thing for the mod. The whole inventory system will not help with crafting. Surely it would be easier to introduce the "addons" for the guns to the loot table and not loads of tiny bits?
  17. Zarniwoop

    New patch coming soon to dayz

    So does this mean that if we want to have an attachment on our gun we have to craft it? If so I dont agree and I think you should be able to find at least some weapons with attachments already on them. For veriety's sake! They should be alot more rare.

    Smasht is probably at it as we speak... :P

    http://i1227.photobu...zps2d609315.jpg Some of those rock formation pictures look like the Paths of the Dead from LotR! Hope we can find these in the game and get lost in them while the spirits of the long dead roam about... :P Edit: Judging from the pictures you can see how enthusiastic Ivan is about the landscape and the map etc. I hope he will make it even more amazing than it already is! Also add shrubbery Ivan!! Shrubbery is good!

    Awesome Matt and co! Keep up this briliance! Loved the interview! Dont post too much on this page guys others need to get a place in the annals of history also! :P
  21. Standalone will be amazing without the exploits!! Can't wait to hear people winge! :P
  22. Agreed Fraggle! But I am having second thoughts about modding altogether... Hopefully there will be some good way of sorting servers so that finding one that suits the player's preferances will be easy. A clear annotation deviding the vanilla servers from the modded ones.
  23. Just looking at the AWESOME pics from Peter Silie (found here: http://dayzmod.com/f...hernarus-today/) Although it looks amazing in game and all that I just want to shout: BI, ROCKET AND CO GIVE US MOAR SHRUBBERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  24. Some very good ideas here 1,4,5,7,10 some not so good (been ruled out) 6,8,12 (12 not needed IMO) and some that have already been confirmed for SA 2,9,11. Also I'm not quite sure about #3 (Drugs) since it feels like its just silly buffs like in mainstream MMOs. Also drugs like that would be virtualy impossible to find in a RURAL post soviet state. Edit: About point #9: You will be able to find scraps of info on how the apocalipse came about and all that, but I dont think R is thinking of putting quests in the game, in the sence that it would kinda ruin the "Do what you like" thing. Nice post though :P
