I'm no gun expert but I'm pretty sure it doesn't feel like a pea shooter either and in games to make guns feel powerful you have to exaggerate certain things.

They've made melee weapons rather useless in this patch, it isn't worth risking infection, head shots only are very very hard with melee weapons because they've always been broken mechanically, they're obviously just hacked in. Fucking no antibiotics anywhere, even if there were is infection a great feature? It's just annoying. Frigging every time you run past a zombie now you get hit from 10ft away........ I wanted a patch but I didn't want a broken mess lol.

Went to pick up a baseball bat and drop my cz and the cz vanished.......

Yeh I've always felt like there is no consistency in how zombies spot you, would rather have a mini map and a cone coming from them like MGS.

Zombies spawn inside buildings and stay in there now, it's really annoying. Also where are vehicles? I haven't seen one on a public server in months.

Yeh Zombies need to be slowed down, they need their animations fixed as well. I frigging hate it when I run past one and it hits me from 5ft away...... like wtf? It didn't even animate and even if it does it still its air. The most annoying thing is you'll often just be knocked to the ground, like if it actually hit me I wouldn't feel cheated, however they can hit you from so far away. I saw the same thing in the SA, the zombies just kept hitting him even though they were facing the other way and were like 10ft away. Personally I'd just rather have thousands of slow zombies, would fix all the issues.

It just looks like the went backwards from the mod IMO and they really need an art guy to design a proper UI. I can tell the game wont be releasing any time soon though, if that is how the zombies and animations are going to be, I'd rather stick to the Mod.

Animations are worse and the zombies still suck......

The zombies pathing and animations need to be fixed before making them harder. All the time I run past one and it's like 5ft away and it doesn't animate and suddenly I'm hit or it does the quick animation, hits the air but I'm still hit. They knock you on the floor but they ignore you until you get up....... I don't see the point? I don't get why the loot rates have been dropped, it's impossible to find food and drink now. I also don't get why vehicles still don't exist, I haven't seen one in months on public servers.

it's too late then.

The problem is they don't animate properly so you cannot tell when you're going to be hit.

Hmm been on two servers now and cannot find any food or drink what so ever, most places seem really empty and low on loot.... is it broken again? Baseball bats as well have no ammo, cannot even reload them. Also zombies just hit you as you run past them and knock you over, it's really annoying because they don't animate half the time and hit you from like 10ft away.

fucking morons then ain't they

He can pick a sentence, I'm not filtering myself.

I never knew how important UI designers are until now lol. My biggest complaint with mods is usually animations and character models, for some reason they're the two things that always get ignored. Dayz has been quite good with that however because the animations in ARMA 2 are really nice and character models with the DLC are really nice. Obviously not with the zombies though, they need a lot of work, even in the Dayz leaked video they look really bad, though obviously they aren't complete. However what I mean is the animations that were working looked really stupid.

Two sounds I really hate that I wish I could tone down are zombies and flies, they're just so annoying.

I just think stop going on about the game, just release it.

Why even bother going to E3? You're just going to show a buggy unfinished game to a load of press who will not care. Your fans are waiting for patches so I don't get why you'd prioritize the press over the fans?

I went through the private hive phase and I'm back to public...... it's just boring having vehicles everywhere and loads of military loot. That said the stock game needs to up the vehicles just a little bit because I haven't seen one in a month, I swear they're broken and not spawning any more. I also haven't seen ghilie suits or sniper rifles or anything, I dunno what is going on with loot atm but it seems to be not spawning right.

It's not about beating, just offering what players want and in every instance I've seen, modders always do a better job.

It has been released.... or leaked lol, my mate downloaded it while I was round yesterday and I can safely say (depending on when that build was) it needs more time, the thing runs like crap lol.

Having a big death penalty really makes everything much more exciting knowing if you die, you'll pay the price. It's why games like World of Warcraft didn't excite me but games like SWG (Pre CU) and EVE Online did. The problem I have with Dayz now is it's not giving me that excitement any more because death has just become an inconvenience like in WoW. Really in Dayz you don't have the ability to build up your character, so you feel no attachment, I'm become savvy on how to exploit the game so it's rather boring now. Where as like a SWG or an EVE, in SWG when Jedi first came out you had permadeath, you knew you could lose a lot when you died, in EVE you can possibly lose months worth of stuff... where as in Dayz you can get the gear back in 20 mins.

The SA will either fall flat on its arse and everyone still plays the Standalone but noobs go to the new game, like what happened with CS and CS:S. Or the SA is popular and the mod just stays popular with the very hardcore crowd who wants modding because the SA wont support that apparently... I don't think people will want to give up stuff like Dayz Origins.

I will be able to hear them, just not as loud.... Also when was the last time a zombie killed anyone? They might as well not even be there.
