thx fraggle, that's some interesting bits of info! i'll keep my eyes on that stuff and see how it turns out, once weather etc is in. I just hope the feeling of dayZ world will still be there... ...countless times when i was just wandering around chernarus as a lone wolf, and just enjoyed the view, the hills, the landscape.... dat kind of realism breath.....

nope, it's not about blue beeing blue. but if you'd work with colors, you'd soon experience, that blue is not blue. ;) there is so many different steps of blueishness, and some of them can change the look of a picture to the complete worst thing ever. You know, there's a reason for why there is something like art education or color theory n stuff. for example: do you feel that oblivions landscape and ArmaII landscape look exact the same? No? So then please explain why it isn't looking the same.

btw.: theoretically, you COULD give us new screens and infos, by ...uhm...*cough* using another account *cough* and leak us stuff *cough*

Being a Lone wolf, you should consider it.

Suggestion: Zombies wearing random clothes or none at all
ponc replied to ponc's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
yeah, clothes wearable by player. Rocket already stated that in the SA, all items will be objects that have all kinds of various attributes stored on them. Also Decay/Degregation. So much for the clothes. Visually decaying them shouldn't be a problem either, it's enough if they just add some dirt textures over it. -

yeah:) -
Rocket said overground base building is not gonna work because the map is too small, everywhere would be houses spammed. Solution: make base building a micro-management. So you have to really drag together pieces of like tires, wooden boards, planks, etc and combine them to build a few metres of fence/wall. This way we won't see the whole map cluttered with houses, as it takes time and big effort to build something.

PAX East - March 2013 - Presenation/Q&A/Interviews/Articles
ponc replied to SmashT's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
THAT SOUNDED FURKKIN FANTASTIC!!!! I CANT BELIEVE IT! THIS WILL BE THE BEST GAME EVER MADE!! It's player records will beat WoW!!! just 2 concerns: -UI: too uch win8 style for me. would like it darker, and with some kind of visual approach, f.e.: to look like the inside of backbag or something. -hotkeybar taking away the need to take time to open your bag. - the new daylight shaders. from the screenshots it looks way to intense blue and dark sky. -
thx for the update! i personally just think that removing randomness is maybe a wrong approach, as randomness is the key! maybe just lower the chances for first-hit-unconsciousness, lower the hit points etc. but KEEP IT RANDOM. the worst thing to happen for a game like dayz is that one can PREDICT stuff. so if you don't know if the first zombie hit could down you, you are more afraid of them and seek more distance.

We need a completely different loot system

signed. RANDOMNESS is the key, in a game where everything depends on random events. -
Infections and defecation. Lots of YES\NO question about it for Rocket.

So, when is a new update coming? Or is the kitchen still pissed because the guests didn't like the cook's dishes?

Post 1 image, that you feel doesn't need any further explanation to show what you would like to have featured in the Stand-Alone. I'll start:

a horse walks into a bar. no wait it was a giraffe. or a zebra or some kind of african animal thing. ok so this walks into the bar, and the barman says "hey! why u walk in my bar?" and the animal says "gray" and then the barman no wait, it was the barman who said "gray" ah i forgot something. ok so this thing goes into the bar and the barman is like "whoa you walk into my bar!" and then he said something like, i dunno, ok the animal said "can i have something to drink please" and then the barman no wait animals don't talk. this is stupid.

NO. I dont want hollywood-brainwashed darkness crap. DayZ has it's mood BECAUSE it is not artificial dark, but rather realistic weather and landscape. this is a biological infection, not some kind of "demons from oblivion" put up their realm of darkness. I am even a little disappointed that they add so much blood on the ground in interiors tp the standalone. i don't like this, although i love gore in general. but i want it to be realistic, not cinematic-hollywood-artifical-stylelized. there is nothing better then to sneak through an empty town in full daylight, while u suddenly hear noises around the corner.... or somebody shooting. i especially hate it how left4dwad did it. dark, poisonous sky etc. bullshit crap. as for the sombies: they should act more like animals,predators, in my opinion, not like walking dead.

you could watch some porn right now.

So, I randomly stranded somewhere on the beach of chernarus the other day, like I often use to do, and it happened to be near the lovely town of Kamenka. As I travelled with me feet, that i have below my waist, to a bridge , which i could see from a far, i suddenly stopped for a second. Right there, on the edge of that little hill, on which the bridge likes to rest its ends, a man came crawling up from below. Not only was he crawling, no also was he bleeding. A lot. "Oh, good man you are bleeding!" , I unpolitely offered him a little chat. "Yeah, i know" the crawling man replied, and crawled on past me onto the bridge. "Oh goodyness, what a lucky day you have, as I luckily happen to be in posession of a bandage!" I continued. "Ah, no, it's ok" He replied once more. "Rubbish", I countered, while already opening me handy backpack and getting out the lovely bandageries. "We will have you fixed up in no time, friend." He headed his crawliness towards the edge of the bridge, maybe he felt sick, so i did my very best to finish the bandages as quick as possible. "No, what are you doing?? Stop it i want to kill myself" the jolly crawling sportsman yelled. "Papperlapapp, fool, don't say nasty things you don't mean. Now look here, this looks much better." i toddled him. But without further ado, there he went, off the bridge and into the depth. Sadly, this seemed to have taken his very life off of him, as he may not have known. But as i proceeded to the edge, and took a look down onto my foolish friend, i goosebumped again. Down there lay 5 bodies! Dead! And in the midst of them: a tent! As the detective instinct in me ringed, I searched them for clues onto their riddled deaths, but this made the riddle even riddlishier: All of them got nothing but bandages, a flashlight and painkillers! And the tent also was packed with the same mysterious ritual goodies! Now i ask you, oh dear readers of this scientific request: What is happening at this strange bridge of Kamenka?
