Hetstaine

Thats my take on it as well. The only problem you get is vet /hardcore servers , i prefer no 3d, no dots or any other gimmicks , so what happens to hearing impaired with that sort of option ? Nameplate servers dont even get a look in for me and the blood spatter suggestion ? Leave that for the other fps games please :) I am all for minimal hud but also understand the need for something for hearing impaired/deaf and something for people who like all of the icons etc or are just learning to play. As to regards your pc not being able to handle it, unlucky. Upgrade that shit if need be I dont want developers wasting time catering to the lowest common denominator regards equipment. Fuck that. I have a cheaps as chips (crisps ;) ) mobo , Gigabyte $120 5.1 onboard- realtek, and the directional sound with headphones is sweet as. It really is hardly worth shelling out on a soundcard anymore compared to even 5 years ago.

THAT HURT MY BRAAAAAAIIIIINNN !!!!!!! beanz :)

Thats just the tip of the pine tree..the rest i don't talk about ;)

Meanwhile at TEA ( Tree Exploiters Anonymous ) Hi...my name is Hetsaine All: HIIII HETSTAINE ! ..and....and... i exploit trees...

Fraggle is sitting two inches away from his screen, drinking ..and clicking refresh on his PM's.

...faaaaark.

I have found plenty of Bizons at crash sites even though they are classed as 'extremely rare'. Found three at one heli crash and then two at the next one not 500 hundred metres away, retarded, but thats how the drop goes sometimes.

I don't get it, why did you dump your loot and bleed out ? From how i read it you got out of the firefight and were clear and away ?

Eat goats and frolic by the ponds with the rabbits. Sometimes i stand really still near trees and pretend to be a part of the enviroment, if a person wanders by i make owl noises and then fly off into the forest.

Go outside and stare at the sun for 5 minutes, slap yourself twice in the face then go and sit in a dark room for the rest of the day.

Sounds....large.

You answered your own question :) Nuking the map is kiddy gamey. Collectibles i could not give a rats about as long as it only affects the player for his own 'experience'. The way you are putting the idea across is that it will affect everyones experience so in order for that to work everyone is forced into collecting trinkets to out collect someone else before they nuke you. or end up with awesome armour or whatever. Just plain not interested in that type of gaming which is why i am here at dayz and not in other level up/perk/collect this that whatever type of game. As had been said many times before and again above by Chabowski and others..i can see players coming up with better ideas in game once we have the tools that Rocket is attempting to give us. The whole concept of collectibles is sterile to me. The reason why i pointed out and reposted your 'awards' system was because i wanted to point out that none of those ideas were very good. Not to get hug up on them , but you just did not have anything interesting in there at all, which further degraded the concept.

You know who you are..

Sweet, getting the hero skin is a cool thing :)

The musty is back. The people have spoken.

Never found anything decent on military zeds or heli zeds. Killed absolute fucktons of them. Only ever found one legit set of NVG's at the top barracks at nw field.

I had pulled into Balota in a light plane the week before, had a shady operation selling crap dells running xp for top dollar in the eastern bloc. I hooked up with an even shadier dude who i used to go drinking and whoring with in Cherno and that little backwater town Stary ( good action and dirty girls) , anyway we turned it on and had a massive fri-sun session. Last thing i remember is him getting dragged of by the local law because he was hanging of a fan at some pub wearing only a gstring and shooting out the lights with his mak. I woke up on the beach 3 days later with a blistering hangover, no pants on and some crazy fucker running down the beach towards me drooling at the mouth and making intelligible noises.

Yep. Situational Awareness. If you are attacked first and do not know where the firing is coming from , try and pin point it by 'looking' towards the sounds. If you cannot work out where they are don't be static for too long, look for an escape route that offers some cover as you run, take a risk and run to another tree then wait a few seconds and recheck. Sometimes busting cover gives away your position but if you are taking fire thay already know where you are. You can wait them out as most people are not patient and will bust before you, but there is nothing worse than sitting still and having no idea where they are..if you can nail down their position that is half the battle. I have managed to escape several firefight deaths by running through the clumped fir trees then getting behind another decent sized tree and waiting. Even had a guy run past me and popped in the back. Good advice op. Don't panic. Don't prone behind trees. Scout your next position before moving.

Yep. Kos :) Dayz is overghillied.

Place it in the middle of a road in a high traffic area. Watch.

I am not really looking for a quest type game. Every single event you listed comes off as extremely kiddy gamey to me sorry , i know you said they were just ideas..but still , there is not one in there that doesnt make me go..ugh :) Maybe if an offline mode ? but online ..uh uh. It sounds worse than Borderlands..if that is possible. Top tier military gear Perfect condition vehicle inc. aircraft Kill all other players Knock all players unconscious Break all other players legs Kill all zombies Turn all zombies into slow zombies Zombie strength/speed increased Foreign aid supply drop – low-grade/survival loot drops in various locations on map eg parachute supply crate style Military supply drop – low-grade/survival loot drops in various locations on map eg parachute supply crate style All primary weapons stop working for x amount of time (might be too farfetched) Game becomes one shot one kill for x amount of time including zombie hits (might be too farfetched - could be explained by a weakening pathogen released) For x amount of time, if someone is hit by a zombie they become infected, and die after a time if they don't take antibiotics Special items – can’t be looted off corpse Body armour Zombie repellent - invisibility to zombies (for a time) Aegis (after a delay, revives you on death) Marauder’s Map aka radar (shows players on map) Air strike summoner (aim at a location, it gets bombed)

I like big maps so i am not particularly fussed on any of the others on offer yet :) Variety is the spice of life though and Rocket has endorsed modding and talked about the ways we can 'travel' so i expect they or other maps will be incorporated after the alpha standalone.
