Overall, im saying, guns are good, ammo, not AS much, cut it back a little bit. The trucks though, It would be nice to have a randomness factor to them. Is this thing going to have a glowplug or a battery? Both? None? Id like a little bit of randomness thrown in there.

Whenever they work on optimizing the game (beta....sigh.....its a long way off), then I could see taller grass. Imagine playing hide and go seek in a cornfield with infected and other hostile survivors in it? That would get my heart pumping and scare the shit out of me.

I know this is most likely not possible with the current engine, but would it not make sense to give the ability for a passenger to shoot out of a vehicle while the driver is driving? I know it would be much harder then standard shooting (moving obviously), but it would give vehicle drivers some much needed protection, and, allow for more player interaction. Why? Cause you want to find someone to protect you while your driving, instead of just high tailing it by yourself. Maybe it wont work in the passengers seat for long rifles (not enough room to draw your weapon, or maybe it will, im not sure), but there isnt any reason the passengers in the V3S cargo truck couldnt shoot.

Something else that might be easy for people to abuse the sleeping system, is server hoppers. Hop a server, get some health back. Unless your character only regens the health over a certain amount of time?

This would also be a successful deterrent to base building server hoppers. It would prevent people from going to a base, server hoping, then moving forward a bit, and rejoining the server to bypass the walls.

Ive found 3 blazes so far, not a single winchester. Look in civ houses, other than that, its all luck.

You still ignore the fact that there are attachments that reduce the recoil. Mp5 Compensator, and the Mosin Compensator. http://dayz.gamepedia.com/MP5_Compensator

Well shit, ive been doing it all wrong.

If they do hurt your hand, it could impair several things. 1. Shaking hand while aiming with a gun. Affecting accuracy. 2. Inability to use certain items. AKA, a gun, axes, driving, etc etc.

Actually, this isnt true. The rear buttstock of the guns DOES affect the recoil, and different ones have different results. You'll see a difference if you fire a gun with a buttstock, or without a buttstock. Attachments do reduce the recoil, like the handguard for the MP5. That being said, I am curious to what the recoil is on the AKM currently, it was IMPOSSIBLE to use last patch.

A short encounter, but one that made me fucking jump out of my skin. I spawned in at NWAF in a corner of the officers barracks (not my brightest idea). As I spawn in, I see a FULLY geared player, just loading his gun, looking at the ceiling. I nearly pissed myself. So, I used instinct. Take my blaze, shoot him in the face. Take his AUG, ammo, and hightail it out of there. I know, I know, KoS. But, if im spawning in, and I see a player less than 3 feet away in front of me, im not showing any mercy. If he's got his gun out at NWAF, most likely not there to talk.

Sorry herro, couldnt hear your comment over the sass.

I could see a knife being required for something like a quilted jacket, or a rainjacket. But a knife isn't necessary for a plain T-Shirt.

Could increase player interaction in a roundabout way. I can get behind this.

Ive never tried the experimental servers, but, from what I hear, it seems like the deathmatches will move from the coast....back to NWAF. People say that those M4's and AUG's can spawn in officers tents. "cue the LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"

Dragging someone who you've just knocked out, then throwing them into the back of a truck handcuffed. Screw being a bandit, kidnapping is the way to go.

You are NOT alone there. Ive been dreaming of bases since ive started playing this game. This video gives me so much hope for the future.

Some attachments yes, some, no. For example, say I have mp5, fully kitted out. I could see the scope yes, adding another two slots on the top. But, what if I have a folding buttstock? I could quite easily make it very compact. Or what about the rak? If that buttstock was collapsable, then I could have a VERY small automatic weapon that could very easily be fit into anywheres. EDIT: Pretty sure the rak isnt foldable in RL, but, my point remains :)

Im telling you people, best place to put the tent is in electro. Silly newspawns, running straight through the town, they'll never see my tent in the town square.

I can see the book titles now. "Bambi Killing for Dumbies." But, this could go along with soft skills that the devs have planned. You wanna learn how to fix a car? Find a book, read it, THEN you can fix it. I like how every single survivor in the game magically knows how to fix a truck from scratch. <_<

Story time kids, pull up a chair! All this took place in a maxed out private. So, I spawned in as a fresh spawn at prigorodki (right by cherno) Almost right off the bat, find another newspawn, seemed friendly enough, had some clothes he picked up off the road (I found some on the road too, but was just fresh spawn clothes). Decided to team up, head towards zelnogorsk. Went into the town to loot, lost him in the town. Found ANOTHER new spawn, seemed chill. Found the other guy, we all teamed up and ran down to cherno. We boot it into cherno, head over to the guardhouse by the sea. Find ANOTHER fresh spawn who decides to blast rap over his VOIP and flip us off. So, the 2nd guy I found tried to sickle him. The rap guy punched him out right away. Then me and the first guy I found go to town on him with shovels and sledgehammers, and knock him out and kill him. Our guy was concious, we decided to come back for him after the guardhouse. We loot, (nothing much there), come back. Turns out he died. Anyways, we continue on, loot loot loot, through the town. We hear gunshots off in the distance. We go to investigate (we had nothing to lose). See a freshie running down the road. See a guy on the roof of the firestation, we run inside, calling friendly (we were actually friendly, not if he was going to jump us.) We find a dead body on the first roof, not the tower. So, we put 2 and 2 together, and decide to boot it out of there. Head over to the school, to get some clothes, and, hear someone running around inside. Unfortunately at that point, RL interfered, and I had to leave. But, the first guy I came into contact with seemed genuinely nice. All green clothes, bright red rain hat, camo pants. Had a sledge for a melee weapon. (Would love to find you again man, if your on here, shoot me a message!) Not a TON of action, but alot of player interaction. And thats what I love about it. :)

Well...it is original....and since we have a meat tenderizer, why not. Beans OP, Beans.

This game IS in alpha, remember that. Therefore, there will be issues, bugs, and all sorts of things wrong. To quote a great person.....Patience, my young padawan learner.

Not the brightest bandits in the world....then again, there are bambi's running around on the coast chasing each other with fire extinguishers.....as quoted by dean.

If someone ruined predator for you, I genuinely feel sorry for you. Now, the actual suggestion itself, hell yes. People can have their own playstyles, going full camo solider should be one of those styles. Plus, the obvious advantages of camo.
