Choose to be female, still show up as male in game?
salty (DayZ) replied to AzureDemon's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Just a bug, unfortunately. Most of the people I know didn't even get the gender change prompt when the patch was released. I guess I was one of the lucky ones. -
Crossing the Map's Boarders?
salty (DayZ) replied to gusmanak's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
There's a complete lack of cover aside from hills and valleys. You're basically parking a vehicle right out in the open when parking off map. Plus, the further you take a vehicle off map, the longer it takes to actually get back on. Off map would be one of the last places I'd ever hide a vehicle. -
When do you decide Friendly or Bandit?
salty (DayZ) replied to billyangstadt's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I tend to be more friendly on new characters. The more gear I acquire, the more cautious and hostile I become. -
I'd prefer it stay the way it is. Blood bags are one of the most useful items in the game. The ability to give yourself one at any time would make this game ridiculously easy. Get hit in a firefight? Just take cover and give yourself a transfusion. Problem solved. No thanks, I like the risk and cooperation current blood bag mechanics bring to the mod. As a solo player, your best bet would be to go hunting. A single cow can net you 6400 blood. Much more fair and balanced in my opinion. Cooked meat is your friend.

Devz, get your shit together.
salty (DayZ) replied to survivalist's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It has been a pretty bad week for DayZ as far as hacking is concerned, but it's all part of the alpha process. I'm just glad it happened sooner rather than later. -
Forum / Security Notice - They trollinnnn
salty (DayZ) replied to tonic-_-'s topic in Mod Announcements & Info
Wow.. not cool. :( -
Broke my legs crawling, again
salty (DayZ) replied to Bal Sofs Tihl's topic in New Player Discussion
Walking through certain doors can be a bit tricky if you're approaching them from an angle, especially if you're crouched or prone. Avoid doing either of those things and your chances of getting stuck or breaking a bone will be minimized. ;) -
make the crossbow 1 hit kill again for zombies
salty (DayZ) replied to LeYuno (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
The crossbow definitely needs some love. -
Choose Your Characters Spawning Military Faction
salty (DayZ) replied to KumiKaze's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
As far as I know, we're all supposed to be Chernorussian survivors of a prion disease pandemic, so spawning as US/Russian military personnel wouldn't make a whole lot of sense lore wise. The mod definitely needs more character customization, but I think rocket is headed in the right direction with lootable clothing. A bit more variation/choice in starting clothing would be nice, though. -
Add that fuking unzipping bag sounds finally PLEASE!!!
salty (DayZ) replied to unsobill's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
+1 I keep all of my valuable items in my main inventory because I get super paranoid when i'm around a group of people I don't know/trust. This can get pretty cumbersome at times. :/ -
The game is still capped at 500 view distance?
salty (DayZ) replied to super pretendo's topic in New Player Discussion
I'm all for a cap, but it should be at least 1000m. I am, however, against removing fog and weather effects that cause the same issue. -
How do i get the FPS hotfix?
salty (DayZ) replied to moosie993's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Time travel. -
Oh rocket.. you sly dog you.
salty (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Perhaps they're just showing off the mod itself? -
How DayZ TDM/CoD Can Be Gone With 2 Quick Fixes
salty (DayZ) replied to D3lit3's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions

As long as you're on a stable, well maintained server and you're saving your vehicle often you shouldn't have any issues with it disappearing. We've lost several choppers to server issues but we've never once lost a fully repaired vehicle.

Whatever your heart desires. That's the beauty of a sandbox game. :D
-
As a general rule, US servers that aren't full or very close to full are broken. Your best bet is to spam enter/space on a full server to get in, which essentially creates the problem rocket is referring to. :/

You get hungry/thirsty even when offline?
salty (DayZ) replied to Kuroi (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
Your blood depletes at a very slow rate even with both food and water blinking. Make sure to always log off with food and water and it should never be an issue. -
What does the female gender model look like? (mhm)
salty (DayZ) replied to JuniorD's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Over my head? I'm aware of the imbalance you're upset over, I think it's pretty obvious to anyone with a brain. In an adversarial, competitive fps environment it becomes a serious potential issue. In a game like DayZ (note: not ArmA 2), the issue is much less severe. If it's really that big of an issue for you, do something constructive and request the option to disable gender or make hitboxes of equal size. Me, I prefer the diversity for the sake of immersion in a game of this nature. -
What does the female gender model look like? (mhm)
salty (DayZ) replied to JuniorD's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This is a self-titled 'anti-game' with a focus on realism. It's not a competitive FPS. Would there be females post apocalypse? Yes. Would you have to interact with them? Yes. Sure, the female model might come with some minor advantages, but in the vast majority of situations they are going to be negligible. -
What does the female gender model look like? (mhm)
salty (DayZ) replied to JuniorD's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Claiming the female model is half the size of the male model is a bit much. Aside from being a bit slimmer, there's not a huge difference. I honestly cannot think of an in game situation in which the minor change in model size would effect anything. -

The female skin can't wear clothing atm. :( -
C-D Love the idea. The numbers may need some tweaking, though.. after testing, of course.
