I like how S.T.A.L.K.E.R. did it by using a bolt in your hand to show you wanted to trade. Maybe something along similar lines in DayZ. Would be a help.
I only started playing this mod today.My 1st spawn i saw 2 players who didn't shoot me on sight. No talk between us. Later I got shot in the back by someone. I had nothing but a heat pack on me. On my 2nd spawn I ran into a player in the air strip near the coast. He asked if I was friendly and offered me to join him to go cherno. I declined after hearing so much about it being a deathtrap. The player left me and went on his way. I later died from infected, who spawned on top of me. So I'd say there are still players who don't shoot on sight and are helpfull. Just luck of the draw I guess.
i like the idea of a generator. though maybe have mobile lighting instead of using fixed street lighting. also maybe able to electrify fencing for defense.
how about a crosshair/name colour change when over someone in your group. maybe a coloured armband on model only visible to those in group. that also means you need a friend/ group setup function in game.
