Hi! I'm curious about players who started out playing friendly, but changed their style. I've been playing for 20+ hours. Still haven't killed anyone. Got killed several times, but I'm still tring not to kos. Had some friendly encounters as well. So how much time did it take you to start to kos?(in gameplay time) How was your first kill? Please share!

Yep, like the title says. It would be awesome to have randomized maps. The ingame map would be actually helpful, and knowing the map by heart wouldn't be the key skill in the game. Everyone's using some kind of outside map, i use the izurvive app on a tablet. Without that the game would be actually pretty hard.

You meant salting. Old people who lived during ww2 always buy loads of salt when there is a talk of war. It's the best way of preserving meat fast and efficient. Every househould has it. Smoking is too time consuming.

Come on! The best part of the apocalipse is taking rich people's stuff.

Why would they be non eatable/skinnable? Is there a magical force guarding them? Players should also be edible and skinnable.

Dying should have consequences. People are just "Kill me whatever" or they commit suicide until they are where they want to be. Getting your stuff back after dying is just nonsense.

Why? I think it could be done by one man within a couple of hours. The game would be much harder and much less of a routine chore. Sticking to roads would actually make sense, and the ingame map would be useful, Right now you can identify your location within minutes, thus allowing you to head to the nearest airport and gear up ridiculously fast.

Nope. The map could be chopped off into equal sized slices and shuffled, and a new ingame map could be generated. Or somenoe could just manually redesign the map on a weekly basis. I was thinking about a new one generated weekly. That's the point. I think being disoriented is a key aspect of the game. I don't think it would be easy, but definately possible. Maybe a new one generated weekly or monthly and updated via Steam. Of course respawning on a different map would be problematic.

I'd like to have salt in the game and be able to preserve meat by rubbing it with salt. And of course salted meat would make you thirsty.

One life per day would be funny. You died tonight after five minutes of gameplay, come back tomorrow. It's absolutely an issue that needs to be addressed. Maybe an hour long ban after dying.

Facepalm.

Nah. If there were less high loot military areas, it would make camping and sniping even more rewarding. Gear spawn is already too centralized imho.

Love the idea. The current distribution of loot massively favours camping on popular locations and makes it way too easy to gear up really fast.

On rails? That's pretty unrealistic. I mean those are really rare and can only be found in museums. But i'd love to see a shopping cart. Like in the movie "The road". I'd love to be able to carry around a huge amount of stuff by sacrificing speed.

"*A train or metro that goes from east to west and players have the ability to sit and drop in every station (with zeds spawns)" That's just stupid. Otherwise good ideas.

Helping people is awesome. Once i walked into a city and saw two guys fighting two zombies. I shot both zeds and gave bandages to the guys. I felt like a king. But the most satisfiing thing is being shot while having nothing and being called a "nigger" repeatedly. That's some sweet sweet gameplay that makes me wanna play, and start over collecting garbage again and again.

The G13 is a different story. The topic is about the xbox360 controller. I was just trying to give friendly advice based on my experience, because i tried to play the game with the xbox360 controller and realized it was a waste of time. I'm not hating. I usually play with a controller if it fits the game, but this is not one of those games in my humble opinion. Maybe one day i'll try the controller+keyboard+mouse combination, but it seems to be really inconvenient, and i can't imagine playing the game in its current state without a mouse or a keyboard. I really need the mouse when using the inventory, and i really need the keyboard because the controller just doesn't have enough buttons on it.

Just install a win7 alongside osx.

I'd like to see priests' vestments that can hide weapons. Also swords on walls. A sword should be the ultimate melee weapon.

If you're thinking about playing dayz with a controller. Stop it! You just don't. I have an xbox360 controller, and i love it. But dayz is waaaay too complicated to be played with a controller. You'll need to push way too many buttons, drag items and you are always in a hurry doing these things. Also one can aim much faster and more accurate with a mouse.

Nooooooooo! That would make camping in popular loot locations even more sensible. Just sitting around waiting for someone to come by.

Well the game is supposed to be like The Road. Right now it's even worse. At least food shortage would make it sensible to kill each other.

Just yesterday I met an adult british gentleman doing the same. He was being nice and polite. After i turned my back he pulled out his axe called me a "fucking russian" and butchered me. (I'm not russian btw) It's not just the kids. And i also met kids who were genuinely nice and gave me food. BTW I don't think kids should play this game.

Every 19 years old who has an iq lower than 100 has a katana on their wall. It doesn't have to be a katana, it can be an old collectible sword. People like to put swords on their wall.
