I don't like how Zombies spot you so easily now, I thought it was annoying and bad enough with the standard but now they come charging from miles away, it is dumb and not fun. The problem is zombie movement is so erratic, combat isn't fun with them so you have to keep dragging them into buildings so they become manageable. The melee combat sucks in the game, all you done is made it suck worse :\ Would rather you just take zombies out until they're fixed in Standalone.

Wow you're so deluded.

If the zombies were slow I'd like it but right now the zombies glitch out everywhere and they're so hard to hit that it isn't fun.

I don't want underground building, it just adds more land mass and creates this stupid instanced off area that ruins the seamless experience. Why can't we just build bases using prefabs? All they have to do is say you cannot build in cities so we don't get the whole blocking buildings off thing.

And that is why it's so popular!

No one likes the Bandit skin :|

Please don't tell me Cherno is destroyed as that is what it looks like from two pics I've seen now.... I was hoping for more cities, not less :\ They're where the fun is at, the wilderness is boring. The map always needed a city off the cost around the middle of the map to encourage people to spread out more.

There needs to be an in land city in the middle of the map, until then I'll never walk away from Elektro and Cherno because that is where the fun is to be had. Well there and Factory, for some reason there is always like a 10 person shoot out there which I don't ever get as factory has nothing in it.

I'm worried about the inventory thing simply because the one in Dayz takes time to loot which adds risk. If they make the new one quick then suddenly the risk from looting is gone.

The new character models don't look as detailed as the ones in Dayz when you have the DLC installed, I still hope they do all the facial expressions and animate as nicely. Though I hope we finally get a jump and not just that stupid V thing which always seems to break your legs if you try to vault over anything wide.

I don't get that option in Chrome, only inspect element which has no link in it.

Why why can we never see the full sized pics on that blog site? Also why are the bean cans so big?

I'm disappointed about Chernarus largely staying the same, I wanted more cities and stuff. I understand for some retarded reason that the two map makers are in prison, but surely they can get a Laptop and develop from there? Not like they're doing anything else.

How do you see them pictures fullsize rather than tiny images?

I mean once you get used to it there is no problem, my only gripes are things like bolts not stacking or how you cannot get a nice view of your bag unless you're looting. However what I really like about it is you know it is going to take time to loot, you cannot simply run over a body and auto pick up really quickly. So this creates interesting gameplay in if you kill someone, do you stick around and loot or do you back off in case there have a friend? I really like that aspect of it and if they speed up the looting process it'll be something that is lost and I think that is a shame.

I can be anywhere on this map and there is only 5 people and I still somehow manage to bump into people out in the middle of a wooded area in the middle of the map. Like I'm always seen and instantly killed by someone with a sniper rifle, I can never see them and there is no reason for any one else to be there, not like a hot spot lol. I swear people have hacks or something cause I can be hidden 100% and suddenly I'm instant killed from far away. So annoying I never find people first, they always seem to see me and they're always kitted out with amazing stuff.

Well then make Dayz lights solar powered without the need for power stations. Sorted!

The Method I used to use doesn't work any more, just wonder what the process is now? I used to install OA + Arma 2 and then transfer the dayz files over in @DayZ and then in Addons. Then I'd installed 1.62 and the latest beta patch and copy and paste the beta .exe over and then put the shortcut -beta=Expansion\beta;ca;Expansion\beta\Expansion -mod=@DayZ;ca -nosplash in the launch options of OA and launch combined op. Only now the Combined ops option is gone and there is only a OA option. I think it was combined ops but I might be getting it confused with another game, in which case it was named something similar. There is a new beta install in Steam now which I'm not going to touch....... How do I get the game to work now? Never known a game to require 130IQ to install lol.

Is there a no install version of Dayz Commander? I'm just very OCD with my PC, I don't like to have loads of stuff installed, I like to just have no install stuff from torrents.

How do I do it without this shit though, I don't like to install things.

What I generally find is people (including myself) tend to pick a few favourite servers and stick to them. Right now the problem in doing that is if they don't update you need to look for another one, however with Dayz standalone attempting to fix that, it wont be an issue. The problem with having a persistent character is it means you can take that character and join whatever server you want with no consequence. That basically acts like a forum troll on the internet and since you don't have to use your real identity, you can easily say something without fear that you'd have in real life. This is why we have a bandit problem in the game, you can just kill and kill without any repercussion. People who claim they like it that way because it is realistic and they don't want any game mechanics to control, well that just isn't true of life. We have lots of social mechanics in place in our lives that stop this from happening. If society broke down then we'd eventually have have groups of people coming together as it is more beneficial, with Bandits being the outcasts and being the ones that are hunted. Dayz doesn't have any of this purely because there is no consequence, the likelihood of running into someone twice is low over different play sessions on different servers. What Private Hives do is generate a community of people who usually know each other and that encourages them to stick together and be wary of new people or bandits. I remember reading a book years ago from Richard Dawkins that really translates to this, however it cannot be done in this game if you're always nameless. Obviously Private Hives are so much better because the admins are generally active and I've experienced less hackers as a result. However they offer an advantage of bringing together a community and as your character cannot move servers then you're encouraged even more to stick to the same community. There will always be bandits, it is fun to be one and I'm not asking for a Care Bear PVE only game as it's the PVP I love. However they have all the advantage and none of the downside and there are no mechanics in place to encourage people to get together. No nameplates is a big one, I don't want them to be sticking out as a big warning that there is a player there, however when you get close and put your crosshair over someone, it should bring up their name. That way you can be like "I've been burnt by that person before" and stay away or kill them as retaliation. This is a much better solution than adding fake mechanics of bandit skins and what other crap developers try to add like the whole dark and light mechanics in Bioware games.

Nameplates are essential for telling who people are, however they shouldn't be a trick to spot people like it is in most games. They're the only way to add an Id to people as there is no customization to make you look unique enough from other people. If you don't add social mechanics into the game it'll end up as another shoot on sight borefest that Dayz become when it got popular.

If they're going to fix zombies walking slow inside buildings then they need to stop them from erratically running around all over the place which makes them annoying to fight and why you run into a building to kill them.

Why would you remove player building? You should make more of it in the real world instead of instances that will ruin the game. You should just make it so you cannot place it in towns so it's used for fort building with what ever other objects you add into the game that players can make a fort with.

It doesn't do anything for me, I've tried after I heard about it but it doesn't do anything. This something that was done earlier on and now disabled?
