I have been through many heli crashes and have yet to see one. Can anyone confirm?

Id love to trade for one if you have one.

Still looking for a Smersh Vest/backpack can offer just about anything. Even an SVD

They must be exceedingly rare. I have been to many helicopter crashes and havent seen one backpack yet.

Im looking for a Smersh vest with backpack or just the Smersh backpack. Will trade just about anything in the game except for a SVD or FAL

I can get you a M65 in black and tan, Acog, Smersh set, Green spraypaint, gas mask, AKM, and a Nato suppressor for the Svd with PSO

Still looking for a PSO scope or an SVD with one. I can offer ghillie gear, Winchester with scope, full smersh set and much else.

I will trade you the Winchester with a scope and a smersh vest set for the SVD.

I can provide an acog and buis. Any thing in particular you're willing to give up?

I can provide everything but the m4 for the smersh set.

Do you want both for the SVD?

I have one. Do you have an SVD or PSO scooe?

I am now in the market looking for a PSO scope in any condition. Can offer just about anything except an m4

Hahaha Up to you man take your pick.

Realism does not equal good gameplay. Remember this is a game. And it should be fun. Tedious should not be a word to describe this game. And worrying about dying from the rain or being bitten by a rat while running through the forest wouldnt make this game any more fun than it is currently. I wont bother to debate the realism of such things, but what I will argue is that adding things like that in the game will not improve it at all.I agree with you that pvp should be done for a reason. But what the op suggested are all terrible ideas for gameplay. I want to get people off the coast too. And his ideas certainly would, because there would be no one left to play this game but a handful if they were implemented.

My fear of rain was just an exaggeration of a few posts saying that the environment should be a threat. But some people actually do believe that standing out in the rain should kill you. Which is absolutely ridiculous. Or that we should be battling diseased rats. Maybe the ultra hardcore 'non kiddie' survival game is appealing to you. I must be honest, some of it sounds cool but you guys want to take it too far. That would turn this game into a chore and not enjoyable in the slightest.Of course, if youd like to keep taking subtle shots at my intelligence like a child go ahead. But it doesnt help your position whatsoever. Like it or not, people REALLY like pvp and its going to be the main mechanic for a while.

Well I'm sorry you cant enjoy the adrenaline rush firefights that my friends and I enjoy about this game. But if youre looking for action and not 'camping on a hill' please feel free to battle my friends and I at the NWAF.

Day z does offer more than Arma and other fps games: serious consequences for death. And later down the line, it would be nice for more survival. But the game as OP pitched it would not fall in line with this audience much at all. Better yet, it would seem like a game with nothing rewarding to it at all. Just pure tedium. We all have jobs and the real world for that. I cant imagine anyone saying: "I sure cant wait to water crops and have to hide indoors because a little rain will kill me!'

The game is and always has been what you make of it. Later down the road there will be more to do. But if the only thing you can make of this game is shooting people then who's fault is that? I dont think im in the minority here that want this game to turn into farming crops and fighting off random diseases. What mechanics would make that fun in any regard?

Dayz is a game of player interaction that was forged by pvp and fear of zombies. Not dying because you stand out in the rain too long. Dont forget that the lead designer of this game, Mr Hicks, is a bandit. Which most people love to hate. You wont be getting an ultra hardcore survival game.

Well better send me along with about 50% of the playerbase with that logic. But I thought I was playing a zombie apocalypse game not an RPG where I fight giant diseased rats and failed crops.

The Day z mod was not succesful because of those reasons and this game certainly wont be of it follows that formula. The designers never wanted a game like that. Survival? Sure. But a game where you die by crop failure? Yeah, right.

Im looking for an SVD. Doesnt need to have a scope. I can offer most of every item in the game except for an m4. Edit: Now have an m4 to trade. You name it, I probably have it. EDIT: Thanks Louis French great trade.

They've got a game for you: Rust. Most people dont want to run around looking for water and being killed because they stood out in the rain too long. Or they get hit by a rat and contract a disease which kills them. That sounds like real fun. Or you make the long trek to find civilization only to find that theres no clean water, you get a disease and then you die. This will catch on for sure.

Again, if you feel guilty for killing someone in the place where you go to get clothing and weapons desgned for killing other people in this game, you're playing the wrong game. Just remember: It's a video game.
