I would have subscribed to a subscription model. Fire and forget servers always get ruined. Cheaters need a proactive approach. This should have been obvious to a young computer building nerd, in his garage, with his brother, in Czechoslovakia, thirty years ago. Or any time since. Where's the AI anti-cheat?

It is possible that you are not saving the settings properly. The interface does have a history of being sort of convoluted. good luck.

Adorable.

The game was released so long ago, I agree. And it is still this way!!! We are obligated to assume, at this point, that it is intentional. Surely, because it has been so long, that this balancing question has already arisen and has been addressed. There’s no way this could be an oversight. I’m not willing to accept lame excuses like “they haven’t gotten to it yet” or some other similar response. Maybe three years ago, after official launch, but don’t you think we’re way beyond that at this point? And if I were to accept your reasoning anyway, I could easily argue that this player should have known this ‘unfinished’ game operated like this and should have planned ahead and un jammed his gun ahead of time. Like, before you put anything else into your hand, your firearm should be your priority.

Ok then. You don’t understand the difference between authentic and realistic. There’s a good reason you can’t stop the action. It’s because it was decided, one way or another, that it shouldn’t be in the game. It’s obvious that it’s not a priority because here we are, years into release and it’s not there. Probably even a conscious decision during countless waves of balancing that have been happening for quite some time.

Vanilla official servers would likely have many performance issues with these spawning. And how would you justify not making this a common item then? It’s a great convenience to have, but can the servers handle them. To me, it just seems out of place to have them on vanilla. Codelocks could work with 9 volt batteries, considering how powerful they are in dayz.

You were not banned for no reason. You wanted your profile analyzed? Why would you need to analyze your profile? And you need a third party program to do this? Nonsense. No one on this site can address your ban anyway.

I agree. The idea is unreasonable.

It should not automatically be an option. It’s because this game was never intended to be realistic. It’s completely logical in the realm of the authentic. This isn’t reality. It’s a video game. It should be obvious that Dayz doesn’t aim for being realistic. It has zombies. You respawn. People shoot other people without penalty. You can’t shit, piss, or smell. Bohemia Interactive has NEVER claimed that this game was to be realistic. This guy decided to not un-jam his weapon immediately. Or he was already actively engaged in PVP, which moots his point. His death was 100% avoidable, but he chose his actions carelessly. Additionally, some actions are interruptible. It’s up to the survivor to understand and learn about how the game works. There is no doubt that other players know about this “issue” but plan ahead so that they don’t die due to poor firearm management.

So, your weapon was jammed earlier and you didn’t address the issue, even though you had time. So yes, not being careful and not being proactive with preventative maintenance leads to stupid deaths. We don’t really need to change the mechanics. All of the same arguments for inertia apply here.

Wouldn’t other players have to download the image to see it?

Again? Why so many name changes?

If you’re going to go out and shoot at survivors then you better be prepared. You died because you made bad decisions. Maybe you shouldn’t have started attacking people if you were out just to collect building supplies. Maybe you should have farmed antidotes if you knew you were going into a toxic zone area. You knew where toxic zones could potentially hit but you went there unprepared anyway.

Crossbow is good. Building fortifications mod is the best. Fortifying an existing structure is logical and authentic. Building a base in the forest is not logical, practical, or authentic, given the logistics and effort involved in doing so. Being able to break into any base no longer seems like a necessary part of the game. Mostly because of the reality that server wipes happen often enough. This is a great thread to post and should continue with each update!

These detailed questions regarding animal AI do not seem to be in line with the purpose of this thread. It would be unauthentic if all wolves/bears acted the same. kyiara’s post looks to address holistic questions aimed at general knowledge and not detailed scripting information. And this makes sense. I would encourage the team to NOT post this info. We don’t need to know exactly how NPCs behave. If you really want to further understand how animals work, that’s fine. But don’t ruin the mystery for the rest of us. Why not make your own server and figure it out yourself?

Oh. I see. There was translations. In English, adjectives often proceed the noun. Which makes it take on a different meaning when translated from someone who doesn’t speak English. That said, anti venom is notoriously expensive because of its short shelf life. Which you would never find in an apocalypse.

Poisonous vaccine? Really? Deadly frogs? Please, no. Let’s at least stay in the realm of the believable.

There is a disclaimer on the Steam store before a customer is allowed to purchase it. Nothing more is needed. If you insist on micromanaging your child then that is where you make your decision. Do you two really think young people will attempt suicide because they saw it in a video game? Laughable.

Maybe they should make it so that a player has to buy another copy of the game. Like you have to do on PC. Dying in-game used to mean something.

Thank you for posting the wipe announcement. Wipe or not, it is definitely better for the community to know as soon as possible.

You don’t need a hard to raid base. Make them hard or easy, it doesn’t matter. My point was that making a base out of already existing structures is the logical thing to do. Personally, I’d rather see no base building instead of nonsensical base building.

Seems inaccurate. A majority of the people I play with have legit alt PC accounts. Rest also seems like conjecture. Lots of assuming that ‘everyone’ will do what your only guessing about.

What are the chances that he will see your response, seeing that its been nine years since the original post?

Right. Like 50% of the buildings on a server are going to be boarded up. There will never be so many houses boarded up so as that you cannot find loot. No Way. You store your valuable stuff in your base? On purpose? You don't hide your valuable loot on a second account or off in a hidden area? Actually leave it in the base, huh.

Do you think it would be unauthentic for a survivor to not secure an abandoned building? If suddenly, all the buildings in society became empty, you would choose to build something brand new. This makes sense to you? Houses are for looting? Are there not enough spawn point nodes on the map? Are you having a lot of trouble finding items on official? Creating bases out of existing structures should be a priority.
