Other games without Zombies... Most similar games to DayZ first. Arma II Arma III Red Orchestra 2 Battlefield 2 Battlefield 1942 Call of Duty 2 Heroes and Generals (Free to play) Day of Defeat source Battlefield 4 Battlefield Bad Company 2 GTA online Counter Strike Quake 3 Star Wars Battlefront 2 The Sims (First one) Wtf? Seriously why are you playing DayZ standalone if you don't like zombies?

I know they've already made the animation for taking suicide. But would this be added to the game or not? My point of view this would add more depth to the game. In an apocalypse you might wanna end your miserable life yourself. This will also make new stories about people trying to flee from other players but afraid to be taken as hostage, but instead they choose to take their life and hopefully others won't find your body and gear. What do you guys think about this option? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG1QI1FJxzE Suicide in the trailer (50 sec).

heradon89 replied to TheWizard14's topic in General Discussion
It will be possible we call it private servers. -
It hurts even more when u finally find a golden AK and someone kill u 5 min later.

Has anyone ever succsessfully searched for berries?
heradon89 replied to battlerhd's topic in General Discussion
Sorry, thought u were looking for berries. -
Can't say so. Very little DLC's from BIS and they've been patching Arma 2 forever now. They are some of the very few that don't take advantage of us.

erh... It was about 25 vehicles in the mod. Military weapon was just as rare. When I started, only my group had vehicles and military weapons. Until ppl figured out how the game mechanic worked. And intentional and unintentional duping become a major problem. Military loot today aint really the issue, but how easy it's to obtain those items. I mean why would I choose the bow over an AKM. At the moment there is no point to even think about the bow. To make a bow, I need to find recipes for it. To find the recipes can be challenging and time consuming. Even making the arrows is a difficult task. Coz I haven't even seen a chicken yet. So I rather take walk to NWAF. After one trip, I'm fully geared with vests, camo pants/jacket, ballistic helmet, AK,ammo, food, drinks and so on. Basically I get fully geared in no time. Just by visiting the airfield once. Looking for that chicken could take me the whole day.I'm glad this is just alpha. Because currently this game lacks of character progression. We are supposed to start with nothing. Then slowly develop our character. Maybe crafting some clothes and basic weapons. And meele weapons should be your first weapon. Then you find new stuff and you slowly improve what you have. You may have baseball bat. How do you make it more lethal? Maybe you can find some nails in a shed and attach it to your baseball bat? Hopefully we will see character progressions that goes step by step. Instead of just running into a military base and ur done. Hopefully they make places with high value loot dangerous. Military areas should be like hell and risky. A place with radiation, toxic air, mutants or similar. So hopefully u have made or found gear that can handle those environments. At minimum it should require basic hand weapons like shotguns, pistols, hunting rifles, a gas mask, boots. To enter certain places that contains high value loot. I wish those area had similar environment as the game Stalker. Dayum I really hate replying with the phone...

Sorry, I was on my phone when I read this thread.

They run faster than you, but still they won't hit ya. After a few secs they slow down a lot. It seems like they've some sort of stamina. I haven't experienced any rubberbanding yet.

Before wipe 0.49 will proably stay on experimental for a few days first.

Are grenades really a good item to have in game at this point?
heradon89 replied to huf757's topic in General Discussion
Hopefully admins will ban dupers. -
Whats the optimal playercount in your opinion?
heradon89 replied to c00lface's topic in General Discussion
Haha all three airfields will be full of players. With the old Chernarus things got pretty hectic when we were 50 players on the server. All the hot spots were occupied by players. There was only a very few places where it was a bit quiet, like the small town Gvozdno which was in very north of the map. With 100 players all the military areas will be very crowded. Which makes it harder to get geared on high pop servers. Might be fun, but i'm afraid that you will stumble on ppl everywhere since everyone gonna look around for heli crash and make camps near border of the map. I bet the camps won't stay hidden for very long either. But if you wanna play deathmatch 100-150 players should be enough. -

Thank you. -
Whats the optimal playercount in your opinion?
heradon89 replied to c00lface's topic in General Discussion
Why isn't 50-60 an option? Considering we are gonna make camps around the world. Everything around 40-60 should be just fine. More than that camps won't be useful and the game will turn into Battlefield w/zombies. -
And why is that a problem? Anyway I've figured out how to clean those buildings if you a have friend with ya. It only requires an automatic rifle or SMG ofc. For suppressive fire. EZ. If you think it's too risky, why bother? Do you have this urge to kill people that fortify inside those buildings?

Hey, me and my gang are disappointed. We need leather jackets in different versions. I also like to add logo and name. I know we have a helmet and a leather jacket in game. Still missing the spiky gloves, pants, kewl helmets tho. But the most important the choppers and other bikes. I know it requires a lot of time and dedication to make the precious. But atleast give us a bicycle, looks so silly when we are running around with motorcycle helmets on but don't even have a bike. It's like walking around with seatbelts. Btw thanks for the face bananas. Ohh forgot mention why do we have babyfaces? Men have AN real man beard. Regards from the Cherno Raiders!

Will devs manage to bring new patch to stable by the end of August? [POLL]
heradon89 replied to kakysas666's topic in General Discussion
Honestly it's no rush for me. I think they've done a great job lately. They will pull it out when it's ready. Personally I don't think they will release it in the next week. -
I bet they will balance the equipment dmg later. If they gonna add more zombies this will not work at all. Everything will be trashed in seconds.
-
Let me guess. It's Alpha... They havent made AI behaviour and they are probably not done with their animations. The only purpose they have now is to give us food and stuff?
-
Sorry to say this, but as everyone stated before me. Chickens and zombies can not co-excist. Devs are currently working on this task. They will open a KFC-restaurant very soon. Hopefully it will solve this issue.

perhaps it has to do with the loot spawns? I have been in several civ buildings and industries and much less military ones. So farI have found a shit ton of SKS, mosins, a few pistols, a few shotguns, a couple sporters, a few CR, 3 AK, One MP5 in the fire station and 3 crossbows. How many hooks have I found? Maybe 4... Food is pretty much available everywhere. So instead of looking around every single corners just to find the stuff for a fishing pole. I pick up the first weapon I can find, so I can defend myself. Food is everywhere I eat til I get energized. Then I have 2 cans of peaches in the inventory. This might take me a few min to achieve. Finding an axe, ash tree, a rope and a hook can probably take hours.

I've heard rumours about critical hit/insta kill too. Not sure if its the purpose or a bug.
