Bandit/Survivor Skins- WE NEED THEM BACK
dallas replied to The Headshrinker's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
We'll probably see something more subtle, the question is will something more subtle change anything? -
Now it's 4% funnier:

Thread would be alot funier, if it was alot funnier.

GET OUT OF MY LIFE... GET INTO MY GAME... Wow uh wow!!!

Back when the connect/disconnect messages were visible in chat, I always hated seeing PlayerX was killed, only to be followed by PlayerX disconnected a minute or two later. You knew someone just got destroyed and decided to stop playing. Sometimes death brings great relief, you can play more freely, when you've lost all your gucci gear, other times I just want to go do something else.

I don't believe in buffs or nerfs to motivate players to change their playstyle. But it would be nice to be able to tell the psychotic massmurderers from the remaining civilized and humane players. This would really change anything for bandits, since they kill everyone, but for people trying to communicate with others, it makes all the difference in the world. With the speed humanity generates, any backstabbing bandit, only needs a couple of hours of abstinence to lose his bandit flag, wash off the blood and hide the skull markings on his clothes, if you need an RP reason and then he'll be able to hide amongst the friendlies again. With alot of friendlies simply avoiding other players, instead of interacting with them, it takes effort and dedication to be come a bandit. Wast majority(or everyone I meet) has adopted a KOS policy, but humanity regens pretty quickly, you just have to avoid killing anyone for a couple of hours and then you're conscience is automatically wiped clean. Might explain the low number of bandits. Denial is a powerful thing in DayZ. I kill everyone who takes a shoot at me and misses. You wont believe how many KOS players are struggeling with hitting a moving target and because of their lousy aim, I chalk up alot of murders. Another group killed two of our guys and durring the firefight, I killed four of them, guess how many bandits killed? Correct none. Friendly players are being punnished already, by getting killed. Friendlies are also being punnished because their choice of playstyle has evaporated from the mod. You can't be friendly, when there's noone to be friendly to. The only consequence to killing another player at the moment is you get his gear and he dies and you live. That's why the majority KOS, not squeezing the trigger isn't a viable option. Let's see if the bandit scowling faces, makes strangers hessitate for long enough to shape the words friendly? before shooting. I'm not sure it's enough to counter the current culture, where your only option is to flee or fight.

Good read, thanks.

I think the name of your original profile is tied to the name of your pc. Just use the new profile as your active profile, your DayZ character is tied to your game ID, not your profile.

Everyone's confirming this. Noone's posting screenshots. All we got is a grainy video.

The Yogcast video sure did ruin the community
dallas replied to JPalmer's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I just figured this was a case of one hand washing the other hand. By allowing Yogscast to record what it is they do on a secure DayZ server, DayZ/BI is gonna reach a wider audience and will move a good number of copies. Allowing them to record on a locked server for an hour is a good as free, the kind of exposure Yogscast provides is worth something. -
You might actually want to check the control options as Mr. Dick suggested to assign a key for the direct channel only.

Stop bumping this thread, everytime I see the title on page 1, I have to take a shit.

Ghosting is down right cheating, we need some kind of battleeye detect.

Some are completely oblivious of this aspect of DayZ. I think that's what makes DayZ special, that's why it's a different experience than COD.

ArmA2 isn't really built for zombie melee in mind, so sometimes zombies don't really worry about the details, like doors and walls. Toggle crouched, Toggle walk, stay off the roads. -Check the eye/ear icon on your right screen. The taller you walk, the faster you run the easier zombies spot you. Run crouched untill you see/hear zombies, then crouch walk, go prone if they are heading your way or too close. -Pick up empty cans/bottles, press F to switch weapon mode to "throw", if you throw them near zombies, they will slowly move towards the sound. This way you can move zombies away from buildings you want to loot. Canned food: +200 blood. Cooked meat: +800 blood. Get someone you trust to give you blood: +8000(?) To cook meat you need to kill wild animals. Use a huntingknife to cut the meat. Hatchet to get wood or find wood pile in barn/shop. Box of matches to light the fire or find a cooking barrel near a town/mil camp.

I think it's really great. That's what I think. :D

Add civilian skins (female characters)
dallas replied to Srt.Tania's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Would be nice to atleast be able to find an alternative color scheme skin, with brow/green colors. Default skin white pants sticks out like a sore thumb. -
Keep the default zero at 300 meters. Anything further away, you'll have time to click up the sights a few notches(PgUP/PgDn). 300 or closer I prefere to hit targets at center mass anyways. With a zero on 300 you might hit your targets higher on 150m range, but if you aim for center mass, you might score a headshot. Not really worth worring much about the zero, keep it at 300, target center mass. Just remember default fire mode is full-auto, everytime you switch to the AKM, press F once for semi.
