Most Videogame movies have nothing to do with the actualy game and are terrible cash grabs. I expect them to make 28 days later but in Czech Republic pretty much. This does not do DAyZ justice. What I want to see is an absolute insane movie where you are constantly thinking what the hell is this movie. If it wants to be "DayZ: The Movie" it NEEDS: Genocide squads without any remorse who laugh at suffering, glitches, Inhuman gesticulations and roles who speak terrible english, many people not valueing their lives: for example unarmed people charging a heavily armed gang with sticks, people dying from all kinds of ridiculous stuff like drinking disinfectant, gasoline, eating raw human meat for no reason, people accidentally poisoning themselves, people crashing cars all the time, people trying to do really silly things like opening a new church or a shop, telepathy, cringy "roleplayer" actors who are the only sane acting but extremely akwardly behaving people, Noob roles who can't complete the most simple of tasks, everyone being way too relaxed about the apocalypse, people who constantly sprint, and the list goes on and on! 😜

I read that a DayZ movie is coming. What are your thoughts?

You don't need to worry about that. It is impossible to defeat someone wearing a gorka helmet and a plate with your fists only (unless the person is a potato). 😜 I am a geared-guy-beatdown-lover, I attacked countless geared guys with my fists and melee weapons and I can tell you that it is unfair gameplay and realism wise. Three power attacks with my fists and three regular attacks afterwards chained in quick succession and the guy is not knocked out, if he wears a helmet and a plate. I have seen instances of even more punches not knocking them down. What ALWAYS happens: The geared guy makes the mistakes of letting you get close enoguh to beat him, and he is too slow or unwary to counter your inital punch and even the three most easily avoided normal punches after the three power attacks, straight in his head/throat/groin/onto his weapon. What is he punished with in this non forgiving game, all about being able to loose it all in the blink of an eye? Nothing. His stamina bar is even full still. What are you punished with? Your stamina is now empty, you are now unable to fight back in any way shape or form, the geared guy INSTANTLY sprints five steps away and shoots you since you cant run or jump. So what if you corner a really inexperienced player who doesnt even know how to bash with a gun? After they make the mistake of letting someone corner and also punch them? You will get your power attacks off, then they will put their gun INSIDE you or in the space that your character creates while punching and you will get shot, then afterwards if you did do enough damage they will get knocked out but you are already dead. Even with MANY melee weapons all you can do is get your inital power attacks off and hope that after those your geared noob enemy is afk, otherwise they will step back and shoot you, shoot you while you are literally touching them because the gun-raise mechanic doesnt work and also the melee animations always make space inbetween your enemy and you, or they bash you and shoot you. I hugely prefel the way it was in earlier versions where two punches in the head would knock you out unless you had a helmet, then you would have to beat someone many many times but it was at least POSSIBLE. 😀

Cool roadmap! I woudln't be mad if the new Enfusion technology makes the cars fly even higher xD The vehicle physics in ArmA 3 and DayZ has given me some extreme laughter the past years 🙂

I can guarantee you its the server.

My favorite way to play is official 1pp hardcore. BUT it is unenjoyable because of bad server performance. There are 3 non livonia EU servers. EU DE 1297 always has a queue of at least 10. This wouldn't be a problem if the server wouldn't randomly kick you or your friends during shootouts or anything else you were doing, banishing you to a queue of at least 10, last time i was in a q of 15 and just straight up stopped playing. Here are the alternatives: The 366-something named servers. They both lag like no tomorrow. Other players are a literal slideshow. They don'T walk, they teleport. frozen for half a second in one spot, then they appear 4 meters ahead, and then the same thing over and over, this is how people move on this server. Imagine shooting someone who teleports from spot to spot with unconnected movements. This has been the state of these servers for OVER A YEAR, If i remember it right this was going on two years ago aswell. Not to mention that cars will guaranteed fly into the sky and are undriveable on 366-servers because of the extreme lag. The least thing Bohemia could do is provide PLAYABLE game servers for its game, other than that I love the setting and direction of the game 🙂 You might aswell wipe the 366 servers in Europe, yes people will be upset about theirs bases being gone but at least we will have more than one playable EU 1pp official server if that removes the lag.

I never really thought about this, but watching Crowbcats video on Back 4 Blood and Left 4 Dead 2 has made me realize the enormous potential that DayZ's infected still have. In Left 4 Dead zombies have visual representation on wounds depending on what weapon they got wounded with. Bulletholes for guns, gaping cuts for blades. They react differently to being hit with different weapons. Shotguns make them fly back onto the floor, other guns make them slowly sink down onto the floor and die. A frying pan makes them stagger backwards. They have ragdoll during and after death animations. Detailed and differentiated Idle behaviours. When they don't see any survivors they lie down and relax, puke, fight eachother and do all kinds of things. They can break doors down. My message to the DayZ devs: Hello devs, please steal and implement these ideas! I can delete my post afterwards so nobody knows 😉

Would be nice if we could get confirmation wether the devs are working on the things EVERYONE is asking for: Volumetric clouds, bow, ragdoll, helis and so on. Or if they have been canned for good.

It fits into a pants pocket, does more damage and is shorter so better in tight areas

Ever since this debate started I have not seen a single M4 in-game.

This would be really cool, just like the really cool fast firing M4, I do agree that it should fire maybe 15% slower for better realism, not balance. Tanks would be epic, the thing is one RPG blast from some hobo with a RPG and the turret or tracks might be irrepairably destroyed, maybe the people inside killed, so I see no problem with tanks. Also you would have to haul all the ammo and fuel to the tank in the first place which would balance it out a bit. Even being attacked by a tank would be cool, why say no to epic toys to play with when they are fun and realistic? It's not like every day you have an ak vs m4 duel, and you loose because the m4 is 30% oder hopefully in the future 15% faster?

The grunt sound when you jump can be replaced with a nice noise of your gear rattling from the force of the jump and an impact sound when you land on the floor again. This way its not as obvious that someone just jumped/climbed, so you cant ask in discord: Hey did any of you just jump? no? ok there is another player here. Also you can't instantly tell then what or who just jumped/climbed. If you just hear some clothes rattling and something landing on its feet you won't instantly know wether it was a female, male zombie OR player. Right now I can instantly tell when i hear that distinct grunt if it was a survivor or a zombie climbing nearby and even what gender and even WHAT CHARACTER MODEL it was. Ok guys I just heard a female character climb that has the darker of the two female voices, nobody in our call online right now plays as one of those. ATAACK!!!

Hm I feel it de-mystifies the death if it gives a report on what killed you. Also if you don't know what killed you, its either someone stealthily threw a grenade at you or someone shot you in the back, not much you can do other than spin and watch in all directions like the camera on the google street view cars all the time to avoid that. Also eat carrots for better vision. You got killed from 1 Meter with a shotgun: Spin more like the Google Street View Car and eat more carrots. You got killed from 1000 Meters with a Sporter: Spin more like the Google Street View Car and eat more carrots. You stepped on a landmine: Eat more carrots. You died of disease: Do less diseasy things.
