Operation human shield...

Now that's a clever idea...

This whole "bandits have no punishment and it's too hard to be a hero" thing is just silly. DayZ: SA is going for authenticity after all. Being a hero has no reward, that's what makes you a hero.

Kind of disappointing, not a lot of new information and by the way it sounds I would guess an October release at least.

It doesn't indicate it. In fact, it indicates that it may take longer than that to have a public release. I don't know why people get these dates in their heads and then rage when they finally found out they were wrong.

I played WarZ for a while. The first few days were actually kind of fun, but the money-grabbing was so obvious. Stuff like preventing ammo from spawning at all and simultaneously raising ammo prices in the "Marketplace", using fake screenshots of features not even in the game etc. The only reason I kept playing it was because I found a great clan and made commitments to our WarZ division. Eventually I got completely fed up and transferred to another division. I'd rather claw my eyes out than ever play that game again.

I think he felt partly responsible for bringing his own opinions up without realizing people would treat it like DayZ doctrine.

How quickly we forget. Am I the only one around here who remembers how cheats almost killed the mod? And the mod, for the most part, was in a functional and playable state. In fact, I'm surprised so few people have mentioned the "Client Bubble". This is so great, a huge blow to script-kiddies who were planning to use ESP or Aimbot. I don't care how long it takes, I want those kiddies to rage so hard they foam at the mouth. Well worth an extra month or two if you ask me.

No, I'm Gummy, he's just a big baby.

For now, the plan is that it will be available to everyone immediately which is a big part of why it's been pushed back again.

I think they said they were starting from the ground up for all weapons.

Well put, I agree totally. Have some beans. Do you have anything to back that up or are you just making accusations for shits n' giggles?

The devs are aiming for a specific week, but have not released when that will be.

They're called riot shields for a reason. They are meant for crowd control, protecting from rocks, bottles, etc. They are not meant for firefights, and anyone trying to survive on an island full of "fast zombies" while lugging around a riot shield has to be at least a little retarded.

Cars can sometimes get "stuck" in the ground, typically on bridges.
