Amen to that, private hives will be the downfall of DayZ :/

Yeah.. Running up to every person you see yelling Friendly.. xD I play as friendly, I rarely die xD But then I again friendly isn't = Naive Retard

Ohh god.. I'd really hope they try and do things different then what they did in the MOD.

That book idea sounds interesting, it'd need some limitations and tweaking but could be an interesting idea :P

And people say this may only be solved with private hives! Bah. :P Nice thread btw OP.

Reported Newbs :3 Good Luck Have fun.

I find a tons of 7.62 ammo in cars and at the School/Office.

Sure you could. 15/30 Logout timer[You can't find a place to logout to stand for 30 sec? Then don't logout outside of Pine Trees.] -This could fix Combat Loggin pretty much Some kind of 15 minute lock system, that I saw suggtested in another topic. -This could fix ghosting and Server hopping to an extent. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/157862-server-hop-ghosting-solution/ Now I'd personally hate to see the SA turn out like the MOD - I attempted to try and re-kindle my DayZ feeling some months before DayZ SA Alpha Release. This was impossible due to all the bullshit private hives out there, it was(is) almost impossible to find a good public hive server xD Anyway, I'm sure that the fact DayZ uses a public hive is one of the reasons it became so popular. If it had in fact only had a tons of small servers with individual characters so you only could play with your toon on one server it'd have been less popular.

499,980 At the moment.

I call bullshit - There should be no problem in solving those problems in the Public hive. At all. I've seen a ton of suggestions that'd work perfectly if there were implemented with little to no inconienence to the player. Secondly - Private Hive killed DayZ for me, it was complete bullshit. I personally do not play on the same DayZ server every time. I simply join an random one and have fun. I'd also hate to see half the people playing on their little own easy heaven private hive servers and thus splitting the playerbase in two. I'd really really hate if I had to rely on some Random private hoster to handle my character and stuff. Please don't end up like the MOD.

Amen to that, "Janteloven" has clearly been broken in this instance :P And just to make sure æøå.

Don't drink the Alcohol! :D Anyway I've noticed something similar I've never had infected wounds besides when I came along a bottle of Alcohol and cleaned my wounds with it.

I've got a little group going, we've got people in American and European Time zones, if you're interested PM me and we can share details :)

Just saying we don't mind less experienced people :) We don't have anything against teaching and giving you a hand :)

Line of Sight system sounds like a great idea! Third Person gives an unfair and ultimately a unrealstic advantage, I find it interesting how people want a hardcore game but still want to be able to arbitarly be able to peak around corners with Third Person.

Respawning for new blood type.. Yeah I been 0+ every life I've had so far xD

+1 There is a ton of legit reasons why you'd want to exit the game and join another server.

Well if you're still interested on teaming up, at least if you are feel free to send me a PM and we'll get it set up :=)

Interesting idea, I would like to see this implemented into the game ^^ At least just to see how it fits the theme and genre :)

The top floot of the Office, found one on the shelf there at least 4 different times. Also seems to be spawning alot of attatchments up there.. :P

1. Factions From what I can understand is, that you seem to believe that people can't meet up over the forums anad form a group? They need some kind of "Out of Character" system to force them to form a group? Well, I'll use my own example. I do not play this game with any people I knew prior to the DayZ mod. Never have I played this game with anyone I know in real life. I have alot of new friendships I've made through this game, by forming groups that was formed because of two reasons Necessity and Lonelyness. I've formed these ingame and over the forums. I do believe there is quite alot of "factions" that is purely incharacter and does not need a faction system that forces them to group up or recieve a penalty. 2. I personally want it to be as realistic as possible! :) So complicity ain't that bad, it just helps give the game more character. Difficulty brings people together, if it's almost impossible to heal your self you will have to bend for necessity and group up. 3. Well personally I wont complain about the current zombies. Why? Because as far as I know they're just placeholders, I do blieve I've heard they even had planned not to add zombies in the early builds. I'll end this section with a quote. "How little do they see what really is, who frame their hasty judgment upon that which seems." -Brainyquote - Luv u google 4. No end game? Well you compare it to an MMO, I do not really see how your view of a "good" engame differ from you view on what DayZ endgame is. MMO endgame I suppose is -When you have the best possible gear and killed the bosses?(You're done raiding and/or pvp'ing) DayZ endgame I suppose is -When you have the best possible gear(Vehicles?). So by this standard, I suppose the endgame lack somekind of epic boss battle so you can tell people - Been there, done that. Fair enough really, I do feel that maybe could test the idea of a BOSS zombie in the Alpha or Beta just to see how it feels. I am somewhat against it, but I am open to try it.. Since wha the heck I have been wrong and will most likely again. TL;DR ? Sorry :(

Well that's one big assumption of what will happen of loot does not respawn :) What I think will happen. [All loot has been looted][No Server Restart anytime soon] Player 1 searches 2 towns - Finds nothing - Leaves server and joins another Player 2 repeat above Player 3 repeat above No collective will be formed [At least not like in the scenario you described]

Actually what Indickua mentioned isn't entirely mistaken I believe. I haven't tried this, but I can imangine people would log off while they're about to be hand-cuffed or as they're just being halted - And with a combat timer they'd be standing still for 10 sec, It'd be hard to know if they're typing or logging out. I do not blieve in glow in the dark, but maybe an emote. -I do not believe that a player wanting to imprison his victims rather then end their lives should be punished because of it's longevity. But then again, this might not be a issue at all - And simply adding that cobat thingy with a player near them could fix that as well it seems.

This is priceless! I love it! :D

Awesome video +1 buddy ^^
