True, maybe make both variants to combat that

Yall do realize that there is still very much dark green trees and ares on sakhal right?

Agreed but let's be honest dayz is set in the 1980 time frame and they 100% had options like these back then, it wouldn't be to far fetched to have more customization. Also to suggest getting a pc is basically like saying oh if your car isn't fast enough then buy a motorcycle, they aren't the same one is just faster, you can always upgrade your car to be better in certain ways, hence updating the customization for console players

I get the rifles floating on the skin I get that, but just make it to were to have to equip a back pack before you can have the gun on your back, going through all the shit to find or make a sling is just unnecessary and is going to throw alot of people off the game, personally I would deal with it reluctantly, but I generalize my suggestions towards all players not just seasoned players, and this would indeed make the game just one step closer to not being played by anyone new Also it would be a huge hindrance to have to either have the gun in your hand or put it on the ground EVERY SINGLE TIME until you find a sling, I already get annoyed trying to switch back and forth from gun to knife for zombies, only thing that makes it ok is the fact that I don't have to drop my gun on the ground instead I have a quick slot for it on my back, and slings wouldn't change that it would just make it even more annoying, also if they ruin the gun drops? Ridiculous, that will ruin everybody's day if they come to find the extra m4 they are carrying fell off who knows when cause the sling failed, it's just too much in my opinion

Absolutely not, this is something I hope never gets added. In regards to number 5....dude....if you're trying to add more difficulty for the veteran players then you're also trying to make the game impossible for newbies to play, just imagine, freshie loads in...first time playing dayz....starts to starve and get dehydrated....gets messed up by zombies....finds a bk-17.....tries to pick it up...only to find oh no they can't they have to find the means to make a sling first, so they leave...they come back and there's no gun or more realistically they die trying to This would make the game unbalanced

I'm suggesting something that yall may not agree with but there's no shame in putting the idea out there, please comment with any feedback yall have STATIC INDUSTRIAL MACHINES: I had an idea to add something like an industrial belt sander which could act as a sharpening stone for tools and weapons. This could prove useful but also to over powered. These machines would be located in specific industrial warehouses located in lower tier areas. I say lower tier in order to minimize the ability for large groups to take over the building, build a massive base, and still be close to high tier loot. Now obviously these machines would need gasoline to run and maybe a spark plug or battery, or maybe you would need a generator and cable reel in order to power it on, which would give greater importance to the generators. An item could be added such as sanding belts in order to make the machine have decay like normal tools only it would last much longer than a sharpening stone, once your sanding belt is ruined you need to equip a new one on the machine. PROS: Not as much running and searching for those hard to find when you need em sharpening stones. Safer when building a base due to not having to leave and search for new tools or sharpening stones. More technical game play introduced through having to find the means to use the machine, making the adventure of dayz even more in depth. CONS: Gives smart players and big groups the ability to put down large bases without having to spam sharpening stones. Would most likely need a vehicle in order to set the machine up properly with a generator and gas. It's gonna be loud, sounds of metal being sharpened and a generator blasting. Let me know what the community thinks of this

I think it would be a better and more doable idea for them to add the ability to build structures in certain trees, they would act like watchtowers but instead of stairs they have a ladder and instead of the the first floor being just over head hight it could start at the 2nd level of a watch tower, maybe though idk how hard it would be

I would suggest the beretta 92fs italian surplus m9s for the fact that they match up more accordingly to the supposed time frame of dayzs weapons, they also have standard iron sights rather than the newer glowing sights, it would be a more original feel to the gun

I know many of the player base on dayz makes stashes in the woods just as much as I do. On sakhal it's super difficult to line up a tent in the perfect spot nestled between the trees, this is a pressing issue to me as it forces the players to either have an exposed tent in the woods or to make a base to protect your tents. I'm proposing fixing the tent collision with trees in order to more properly place tents within a group of trees. This would give much more effectiveness on hidden stashes and improve the stealthy survival aspect of frostline
