Yeah it already got me, I logged in, walked out the door, BOOM... ...you are dead... Its tricky, and will be a difficult task to solve if they decide to do it, for now just watch the hell out on persistent servers!

As soon as they add bicycles, maybe, or cars etc become a bit more common. It is quite rare to find any vehicle right now. But yeah, it needs to be changed sooner or later, but with it, hopefully the zed speeds as well haha.

I disagree, they have normal and hardcore mode. Instead of just changing the camera from first person to 1st and 3rd person, they should make all hardcore servers persistent and give lesser loot etc, like the .55 update almost but polished. I think the devs need to start focusing on the hardcore aspect of the game, since there is quite a few people that thought .55 was the best thing ever, they can add that then into the hardcore mode for all I care. Personally I thought it was more boring then challenging with the amount of time invested in berry and apple harvesting etc. And yeah it is very reckless, your going to kill random people, friendly or not, of course I know that traps are traps but hey, your going to be injuring anyone that stumbles across them, friend or foe alike. I for one tend to lean along the friendly line, I walked out and got blasted. This is bandit like behavior.

Bicycles!

Lol, is it really hard to see? I thought he was just trolling. You can always just highlight it with the mouse.

+1 Happened to me as well, my silenced engraved m1911 with flashlight and batteries and 1 chambered bullet, gone... : / I also noticed that if you have 2 m1911s and they are both chambered, (I dont know if this makes a difference but one was a engraved one with a flashlight the other one a standard m1911 with nothing but 1 bullet in the chamber) that you can fire the chambered m1911 that you have in your hand and then reload by pressing r! I tested this and you get a reload of 1 bullet this way, but the engraved m1911 then got bugged, since it somehow fired that bullet and it showed that the gun was pulled back (like when its empty) but it still had the chambered bullet in it. When I tried to eject the bullet it just read that "retrieving or receiving". When I tired to shot the chambered engraved m1911 it would not fire. I was able to get rid of the phantom bullet or call it whatever you will by detaching the flashlight off the engraved m1911. Very strange bug.

Pretty scary things these land mines, I spawned into the military jail since I logged out there the last time, I walk out the main door and boom. I take it that land mines and bear traps are persistent on persistent servers? If so then someone was pretty reckless, I usually am a friendly player, now I am scared for life, ever since that incident I been looking at every door step. It is creepy. Evil bandits! I mean all my gear is useless when they kill me like that! I must have been a random casualty...

Look, I'm not saying that the last update was an absolute failure. It had great ideas, and I did like the lesser loot, to a certain extent. But not so few that I needed to resort to hours of apple harvesting and that certain locations like the military bases and coast lines were practically obsolete. Problem would have been fixed by adding 4 things really: 1. Start player with max hydration and energy. 2. Add bicycles to the game. 3. Double or Triple the spawn rate for canned foods, since they were way to rare, like almost non-existent. But not increasing it to the point of making farming, fishing and hunting obsolete, more of a emergency food or secondary food. 4. Fix Military base loot. I liked the farming aspect of the last update, but since I had to focus all my time finding food or farming and never really finding all the pieces for hunting, such as cocking pot, frying pan, axe, cocking stove, matches, gas canister, a weapon with ammo, I never really was able to do anything besides farming and apple harvesting. When a friend of mine died, trying to be a good teammate we would try to meet up with him at the nearest spawn and supply him with food due to the early starvation on the coast lines as a fresh spawn, draining our rare food supplies and consuming to much time. If those 4 things I listed would be in the game, it would still be very difficult but at least one can travel with bike, being able to quickly regroup or head inland where the devs wanted us to go for more loot. And every now and then you would be able to find some canned food which one can then use in an emergency. The idea was great, only needs to be refined. I rather have the 54. until the .55 gets fixed, which will hopefully be the .56

So I take it that you never had any fun before the last patch on DayZ SA. And before the last patch, most of the community was thinking to themselves: "Why am I even playing this game, this game is no fun, it is remotely beyond me." According to you logic, those people with 500+ play hours did not play the game because they were having fun. I guess now that now that the old loot system is back, that you are not having fun anymore? Maybe you should take your own advise and start playing Left for Dead.

I agree with you, great idea, poor execution. It became apple harvester simulator 2015 for a fresh spawn. I spent 2 hours the last session eating apples because I kept harvesting just few at a time, then I would check houses etc, I really did not think food to be so rare, and hunting, yeah great idea when your on the brink of death from starvation and you need a gun ammo wood matches a frying pan or a pot and axe or a cooking stove with gas and cooking pot or a frying pan. Farming kinda helped me, but well, its a time consuming process and tomatos and green peppers did not really energize one, pumpkins are awesome but they take allot of storage place. Military bases having only seeds books and cloths, was a huge joke, making the the military bases pointless and obsolete, as well as the entire coast line, it should have had a moderate amount of loot, and the more one would have gone inland the more lucrative the loot.

Guys, chill down, look the sad reality is that, there are more casuals out there that do not have the luxury of time. I for one loved and hated it, but once I died a few times, I gave up, to much time invested in gearing up and farming to stay alive, I had no time for anything else. So the game died for me because it was just to time consuming to struggle, and sure playing alone made it more easy but as a team, whenever a teammate died it was just a disaster, we had to try to meet up with him and try to keep him alive. And military loot was broker and zombies 1 hitting. Dont get me wrong it had great ideas but, it became to time consuming, its already time consuming enough, with that I mean the % of walking in this game, which would be fixed for me with bikes lol.

I know, I am much like you, I just thought it be funny to ask, since the topic was that everyone wearing a mask is a psycho more or less, apparently the ones wearing a clown or gas mask. Which kinda holds some truth, most people I ran into wearing those masks seemed like crazy people or bandits. I too am more of a opportunist more then anything really, but I try to be friendly and avoid KOS.

I was unable to vote on the poll for whatever reason, might be already closed. I picked all types of aerial vehicles. Make allot of them damaged with missing parts, such as no weapons or rockets etc, and make them rare. Maybe even have only improvised weapons on them, or weapons from land vehicles etc.

I wear a Balaclava, would you trust me?
