I think they can improve a lot on the transitions, length and smoothness of the animations and possibly make the controls/action menu a little bit/lot more intuitive, I'm really a big fan of geeking out customizing my keys. I really love that each key can be assigned different actions, by different types of key strokes. Single tap, double tap and hold key, plus you can ad shift-modifiers ect. But it I think the controls will benefit from getting a once over. :)

"His name was black and white cow, it appeared he died from unknown causes..." It would be cool if you could investigate dead wildlife, like real hunters always do and check for signs of disease. New players or very hungry players might forget to check the carcass and roll the dice on getting hold of some bad meat. Maybe something like 10-15% of animals would be sick with something and maybe if you ate it's meat or you ate a spoiled can of food, there'd be a chance you got sick, but also a small chance you get a warning while eating it. 20% of noticing a bad taste and then you could attempt to prevent sickness, before getting the first symptoms.

First off, change your name to Frl3ndlyhelperMickey. ;)

Operation Flashpoint owners get a free car too(unconfirmed atm).

Most embarrassing death: Trying to board the shipwreck at Rify, getting cruched between the wreck and a wave or my speedboat. Watching my full kitted corpse drop to the bottom of the sea. Best kill: Getting trapped in the Polana supermarket by three bandits, waiting inside for ten minutes, outsmarting the bandit entering the supermarket with a smoke grenade in the back storage room, being able to trap him between the shelves, watching him jerk and getting stuck in panic, when I started shooting from the opposite room of where he thought I was. Ran away from the supermarket taking shots from two other snipers, escaping in the treeline on the west hill of Polana. Kept running and when I finally found shelter and bandaged, I had 2000-3000 health left. Then running to Gorka almost blind, where a friend, who were rushing to help me, gave me a blood bag. Longest kill (approx): Two guys with a CZ550, who stole our fishing boat. 400-500 meters, but one of them accidentally ejected the boat and the other stopped to pick him up. Like shooting fish in a barrel, although they stole our boat, it felt like pure murder. Longest life: Around 40ish days. Murders: 1 perfectly unprovoked murder, 2-3 questionable, 10-20 justifiable.

DayZ's day/night cycle follow ArmA's ingame calendar. The moon follow a lunar calendar too. It depends on the specific date.

When these topics surface, where the authors demand cannibalism, rape, ability to murder children in game, they always makes me wonder if they live anywhere near me and if I should acquire a heavy firearm for personal protection.

Charging for joining his community seems like little WarZish though. :)

Sometimes making a game is like baking a cake and sometimes it's a little bit more complicated than baking a cake.

Don't know if it's my imagination or poor long term memory, but something about game stats being integrated with the game/forum accounts.

My little fat heart is bursting with excitement.

Am I the only one, who wants Rocket to clarify if the standalone really really will be released on Steam?.

I always thought the effective rate of fire with the DMR was too high. While the rate of fire is realistic, I don't like you can hose down a 600 meter target without re-acquiring a steady aim. Not a lot to do with being a marksman, when you hear a 10 shot salvo from a DMR.

I already owned ArmA, before I found out about DayZ, but if I were in your situation, I'd try to hold out until the standalone. You don't get an amazing discount for buying ArmA. The standalone is just sold to everyone for a discount, because it's considered a work in progress. If you can't wait and have the money, get it now.If you've got enough patience to wait 10-30 days, wait for the standalone.

omg Rocket totally sold out! Fregatten Jylland FTW!!!

Somewhere in between December 1st and 31th.

As soon as I've traded out my beach backpack, I'm as good as it gets. The rest is just extra weight.

It will most likely get released before or after Christmas or on the very day. :)

You should always test it out with a bandage, before you test it with your NVGs and DMRs.

1. Possibly brighten nights slightly, if gamma exploiting can be solved. 2. Hunting gear/weapons in deer stands, no military equipment. 3. Rework reloading/decrease ammunition. Ability to load single bullet in chamber, unless you find empty magazine.

I highly recommend you download and install Dayzcommander, which will help you install, update and launch DayZ. It can also help you filter for empty servers, if you want to meet up with your friends, without too many other players.

I just placed a tent with a single item in it, waiting for server restart. Usually if the first restart deletes the item, the tent is usually okay after that. [Edit] Server restarted, saved the item.

Yes they are basically the same. You're LMB is assigned both to "Fire" and "Use selected action" by default. This means based on the situation, LMB will work either as your weapon's trigger or as your MWB. When you run up to a closed door you'll see a green <> icon and "Use selected action" means that at that point, you can simply press "fire" and open the door. Most of the time it doesn't cause any conflicts, sometimes it's a minor annoyance and a few times, it's a question of life and death. If you see a bandit, while you're in a doorway or near a corpse, instead of firing your weapon, you might close the door automatically or start a kneeling animation, slowly opening up your inventory. I just prefer to always being able to rely on LMB as my weapon's trigger, when MWB is performing the same functionality anyways.

If the epi-pen doesn't work, I can make your passing to great beyond a little more smooth with my double-barreled shotgun, PM me.
