I'm amazed at how you kept track on everything you found and at the same time could keep an eye out for other players and zombies.

Thanks, i was thinking hard on how i could upset you with a thread title. Glad i succeeded.

That's my point. It's still the same thing, but with added features to get a broader player base. If you don't like tdm or training mode, you never have to enter it. You can continue playing the original thing without ever set foot on the other features. I wish the same with Dayz. We don't get mods, so we are limited to the vanilla game (except for patched features). And dayz is a very niched game with a steep learning curve. To broaden the playerbase and increase sale the team must add more content that appeal to a broader audience. As a fan of a product, you should never be selfish or against change and added features. I got a prime example: back when uncharted was released for ps3 (2007) i went to the official forums and praised the game but started a thread about how much more fun it would be if it had multiplayer. I got so much shit from the community and that thread was 15 pages long about how stupid i was and that the devs would never do it and that the single player would take damaged on quality if they split the team to have focus on multiplayer. ....... Along came uncharted 2...and 3. So, it is never a bad idea to add content that might seem far off (to the small hardcore fanbase) but could possibly boost sales and attract thousands of new players, just as long as the base game and its foundation is still there. I for one would love some team deathmatch with 5 teams of 5 in each, or 30 vs 30 with a.i zombies on cut off places around the map. Would i love it more than the base game and its exploration and encounters with random players or 2 hour hikes to grab gear? I doubt it. Still.... variation and options is needed.

Might work... But that don't sound fun in a video game, does it?

Sad to hear.

I sure hope so because thats what i do everytime i find a camp.

We use them in the squad from time to time. But yeah... Pretty useless. Same with the long range radio backpack.

Exactly.... Thats why they should remove it.

It's not about how many guys... Its duplicating and flooding the servers. Why? Beats me..... Guess it's real life preppers that are playing a video game.

One of my buddies got it another time soon after his first cold.. He put all his gear in a barrel and jumped. It's annoying as hell and I for once would not be sad if they removed it. To cure a cold you go to bed and drink water and honey... Not exactly my kind of fun if that is what we have to do in the game.

You are right.. I have not. Maybe it's much longer now. Before it was roughly 8 hours (3 of us had it and timed each play session).

15+ hours is a bit exaggerating. Around 8 real time hours is how long the cough and sneeze stats.

Lol

Please fix HC servers... Hate to play at disadvantage. Spawn in 1st person please.

Did a 8 minute swim to prison island. Looted. Jumped 3 times, all looted. Swam back.

For me 1 hour night and 6 hour Day would be perfect.

I too are starting to think character locked servers should be a thing.

I thought it was goggles... Then it's pretty useless during night.

Being able to pick gender, skin colour, hair style AND what clothes to spawn with (out of the existing spawn clothes) since i love jeans on my character but they don't spawn in the world. Also... Clipping is horrible. And.. Facial hair.

My #1 gripe with the game right now is boredom. Hard to explain, maybe i played too much (400+ hours) or maybe i'm playing it wrong. But there really is nothing to do anymore. It's just spawn, run to military base, get fully looted, find other players. We need more to do, much more. Maybe weekly challenges? Treasure hunts? Hunting competitions? Airdrops? And as much as you and a lot of fans might disagree.. I and many believe there should be a pvp as a seperate part. 2-3 game modes. It's doable and will attract more players/customers. Maybe a "dark zone" with pvp? I would also like to see an area/town on the map that is a no shoot zone, where we can trade, exchange stories or just hang out. Is also doable.. Just code it so that any player entering the area will automatically shoulder their weapon.

I would like to see lean implemented. Reworked loot system (not 20 peacoats in a row please). Party chat and game chat working together. Also.. Maybe its time for a character locked server patch.

I adressed this back in october. It's been there sin e august 29th.

I thought this was fixed a few patches ago?

Believe me.. I used to be a server hopper so yeah,. PU scope spawn in MB's. And since i wrote used to, which is a thing of the past. My post is factual based on 500 hours of game play before the patch two days ago that fix the broken weapons. A weapon with half of the working functions is a broken weapons IMO.

I used to play on NL3939 but after 2 tents and stashes were stolen, i moved to 3903...and after 2 tents and 1 barrel i gave up and just wander around on the server with most players, mostly 3900
