    Survival Based Ideas in DayZ

    DayZ is more like Deathmatch more than anything right now. All you do is gather gear, go to a airfield get shot up, and repeat. What's the point and fun out of that? Yes, you do meet some cool people along the way but at the end it isn't worth it. DayZ is a post apocalypse game based on zombies fluttering the world around with infested people. As many players know the zombies are extremely buggy right now, and it gets quite annoying. I'm not saying get rid of the zombies but just fix the bugs and players will be a tad bit happier. Besides those points I want to list some suggestions I have for DayZ. 1. Craftable Shelters By this you can gather material and resources to build the houses. Cut down trees and collect items like wood, and craft a mini house with you and your friends. By doing this you can make a fire and literally live off the land, and instead of going to big cities and looting. 2. More Spawned Animals Animals only spawn near the east coast more than the west/mid west. I'd love it if animals were a bit more spawnable mid/west. My friends and I were going to live off the land one day, but we couldn't find any animals near the NE airfield. People may say "Of course they wouldn't spawn near the airfields." You guys can add a farm in most cities East/Mid/West to fulfil the supplements of animals for hunting. 3. Transportation Everyone thinks that vehicles should be added to the game. It'd make it A LOT better. Even though its a post apocalypse based game, that doesn't mean there shouldn't be any vehicles. Zombies don't go destroying cars on purpose. Adding a simple bicycle would make the game a lot better. DayZ right now is pretty much what I like to call it a "Running Simulator." This is true because there's no type of transportation, nothing like a bike or a motorcycle is even implemented. I know it's hard to add vehicles and get the right models, etc.. but that doesn't mean you shouldn't add them. Most people are waiting for vehicles and I think it'd be a great implement in the game. Helicopters are far in the development of the game but should be added also. 4. Friend Indicator Everyone has that one friend that says "Hey is that you?" and it gets annoying sometimes. Adding a system that includes friendly players that YOU added, should be indicated as a friend from a distance, maybe like a green circle hovering over the players head, but it may be annoying so you can toggle or toggle off the friend indicator. 5. Ghillie Suits Ghillie suits would be an amazing add to the game, it'll feel like the mod sometimes. Certain customization of the ghillie suit will change the appearance of it, smearing mudding or adding more grass/leaves to the outfit will make it more dark or even more camouflaged. But can only find this item in the Military Bases or the Helicopter crashes. 6. Friendly Trading System If a system is adding where you can not kill the person you're trading which both of you have to confirm. You will NOT be able to kill the person for atleast 5 minutes. This reduces the amount of harm done to players once they're done trading. Also in DayZ you have to drop things on the ground, but I do realize this is more realistic but it's not safe. A fresh spawn can come behind the both of you and take the things you drop. Then you shoot him and the item is ruined. So implementing this into the game would make it better (trading wise). 7. Growing Age People always talk about this subject, the more days you survive in DayZ you get to grow a beard for men. If players see some man with a beard they'd know that they lived for a long time, indicating that he might be a hero or a good shot. Also it will grow head hair and beard hair and you can have the option to trim or cut your hair using a razer blade, etc.. 8. Gaining Skills This may sound odd because of the title, but if you went out hunting and killed your pray, than you would gain skills from that. For example, if you do that in real life than you most likely will increase your skill on hunting, and using a firearm. Also for swimming, if you swam for a long distance you become faster and more agile. Adding these perks in the game would make it worth while. 9. Mythical Creature Adding a mythical creature that will hunt players down in the forest at night would be very exciting. Adding this will not be easy but it damn will make the game a lot of fun. It could be a creature that was a failed experiment in World War's and survives off the land killing cows, hogs, goats, etc.. In order to kill it, you need more than 3 people. Atleast 30 shots before you can kill it. If you do kill it you than skin the animal and get a lot of meat. Thats all I have right now, this post will be updated to add more things that will be necessary in the future. Thank you for reading my post.

    Survival Based Ideas in DayZ

    Yes, because that's a common spawn area, I mean like ghost town areas where farms or atleast some animals can be found. Even if rabbits or hogs roam the forests that'd be better.
  3. Hey guys, I don't want this to turn into a spam or a urge to gain viewers. All I want is to bring awareness that there is hope for DayZ performance wise. So today I present you the Ultimate Guide to Fix Lag in DayZ Standalone. Hopefully no one takes this post in the wrong way, I'm just trying to help out everyone that are having these lag issues. Thank you for reading my post. Here is the video. This post will be updated frequently based upon adjustments of the game and configuration settings. Ingame Method Settings: Objects - High or Normal (Players seem to be invisible from a distance with low) *thank you flygamer1* Configuration Method Codes: sceneComplexity=200000; shadowZDistance=100; viewDistance=1000; preferredObjectViewDistance=800;These can be found in your DayZ Profile in your configuration files (Documents>DayZ) My Computer Specifications GPU - AMD HD Radeon 7770 OC GHz Edition CPU - AMD Athlon II X4 630 Processor 2.8 GHz RAM - 6 GB (stock) System Type - x64 Case - Dell Inspirion Operating System - Windows 7 Ultimate HDD - 1TB As you can tell you don't need to run the game on the highest settings to make it look good. DayZ looks decent even with the lowest graphics. Also you don't have to have the best computer in the world to run the game decent, with these steps I showed you in the video you can hopefully play DayZ decently and more enjoyable!
