To remove the M4 from your character you will have to uninstall the *** scripts. :lol: But seriously try removing the bullets from the magazine, I've read that helps.

This is why the military uses uniforms. Everyone looks the same and can be identified more easily, but even then accidents can happen due to miscommunication. There we have the 2 most important factors for FF identification, Uniformity, Clear Communications and then last but not least Leadership. Here's a simple tip for any fireteam that finds itself in a PVP situation, everyone wears the same headgear(or no headgear) and drops their backpack.

Have you ever thought about playing ARMA? There is everything you can dream of for snipers in ARMA and no one will complain you are just another KOS scrub.

I totally agree, a zombie hits you once and your can opener in your trousers is ruined. In all seriousness I have never seen a ruined can opener in my entire life, but here it only takes one lucky hit from a zombie. I would suggest maybe having things degrade at most one level lower from their previous state max. and maybe have things fall out of your pockets if the trousers are ruined, but not this current system, were everything is magically ruined including that mysterious can opener touched by the zombie hand of Uri Geller.

Having the option to switch between a human or a animal character, preferably a wolf. When you login to a server you have the option to switch between playing as a human or a wolf. As a wolf you are automatically spawned near the other wolves in the game to form a wolf pack. Wolves have all the stamina, health, energy as humans and require food and drink to survive. Wolfs should be able to hunt other animals and humans, but will get ill if they eat infected zombies. Small wounds would heal faster without the need of bandages, larger wounds and injuries can be fatal. Wolves should have a higher sense of hearing and smell and should be able to hear or smell animals and humans within a recommended range of approx. 500 meters. (animals and humans could be highlighted to imitate there superior senses). Of course the server would have a max. limit on how many people can play as a wolf. I had this idea when I was thinking about how you could create an intelligent enough AI for one of the most complex and intelligent predators known to man. So why not just have humans play these animals. It gives us something very unique to do in DayZ and something I haven't seen in any other game. Please share you thoughts.

wow thanks

It's ok, I would like to play as a wolf trying to survive in this game, but if no one likes the idea then we can just scrap it. No big deal :)

Nopes I don't do drugs. ;) I am not saying you can transform into a wolf, you just have the option to play as one. There are no other games to my knowledge that simulate survival as a wolf. Wolves would be part of your survival experience as they are an additional threat you have to deal with. While you are stalking some humans in your gillie clothes a wolf might be stalking you. ;)

Great idea and would fit more in the Roleplaying sector of implementing professions, such as medics and hunters. This might not reach the final release, but I can definitely imagine this in a future mod of the game. :thumbsup:

The way I see it there are people that have a server they stick to and people that roam around looking for things. Things don't need to be the best loot, it can be anything really, even friendship and when you find it you might feel inclined to stay for a while. If that didn't happen then some of the more popular servers would have never become so popular... maybe. When tents and base building comes I am sure more people will have places they call home and roam around less.

Thanks :) Now all I need to be afraid of is hopping on Irish's marked territory.

That is how Green Mountain works! It will lure you with great fortunes and then when you least expect it, the curse of the Green Mountain will strike you down like the sword of Damocles, held at the pommel only by a single hair of a horse's tail.

I remember looking for the M4 heading up to Zelenogorsk after searching through Balota and Pavlova military bases. At Zeleno I didn't find one because it had already been looted, so I went into the town and logged off in a residential building. I have 5 servers on my favorite list, so I switched to another server and headed back to the Military Base and finally found the M4. After that I went through the jail building looking for some more interesting loot and while in the top room another guy comes storming in and shoots me in the leg. I emptied the whole 30 rnd mag into the guy. Now you can say I server hopped and maybe the guy I killed server hopped too. I would like to say I never eva server hop, but I would be lying. I've done it on occasion for reasons I can live with, like an empty looted area I spent an hour to get to, or when the server switches to night time and then mostly only on the servers in my favorite list. I also like to look for servers that have appealing names and low ping, like "Grumpy Old Gamers", but I avoid servers that advertises for "High Loot". At the end of the day, I am guilty of server hopping. :(

You know I totally agree and if they do bring in night vision goggles or scopes then I would suggest they use the ones from the 80's to make it a more even playing field. So night time needs to be made playable and please don't use the NVG's we are used to from ARMA 2 or 3, but some older types of night vision goggles and scopes from the earlier generations. This should be the image you get

I don't get the joke! never mind it's probably not even that funny.

I wholeheartedly agree with this. Playing at night time without pushing up gamma and brightness is unplayable and just makes you a victim of your own stubbornness. I used to do night time looting sessions with a friend on the mod and it was fun, but we was mostly played these sessions on low populated to empty servers. In real life you would bolt up for the night and never go outside unless there is a life and death situation and even then it is suicide. As soon as they bring in NVG I wont be playing night time servers anymore, because I just can't be asked to run around in the pitch black and get sniped by some NVG guy that wants to prove his skills and needs his 5-10 kills a day. The same can be said about the gamma exploit if you want to call it an exploit. You do it and you are playing on equal terms, you don't you are just another notch on someones kill score.

I can confirm this and can't wait to see the new fixed zombie pathfinding with the nav-mesh and then increasing their numbers. Currently I feel sorry for that lonely single village zombie and want to make it my fwiend.

I can't believe you are even asking me why. In sniping distance is everything, just like the weight of a fish for competitive fishing, so is the distance in sniping the most important aspect. The world record for longest recorded sniper kill is currently at 2.475 m shot by Cpl. of Horse Craig Harrison, not 2.500 m something, but exactly 2.475 m.

Claiming this for America? Last time I checked America is a Continent, two actually North and South America. :P

How about they just advertise this genius idea of yours! Buy the game, but if you do not have at least 180,- Euros worth of games on your steam account you are only allowed to play on servers with hackers. In other words they are allowing hacked servers so you buy more games on steam <_<

How do you determine server risk levels? I bought this game on Steam and expect to be able to play like everyone else and be treated fair and equal.

You are constantly saying "like" so how can this not be good? http://www.wikihow.com/Stop-Saying-the-Word-%22Like%22

Lucky shot and usually wasting ammo shooting at perpendicular running targets. Can you give us the location so we are able to confirm the distance, preferably a snapshot of the DayZ Map http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus Thanks
