Delta (DayZ)

Over 1million players for a mod in this short time.. You should buy it and take part in the hell that is dayz.. There is no other game like this out there.. And its nice to be part of a game in process with new things added all the time.. Arma II is also a very good game itself

Wait for Arma III theres underwater gameplay with shipwrecks and sealife..

Everyone has to log of somewhere for the night.. The world is big but not that big if servers will have 200 players later down the road as rocket talk about.. there will be many times a player spawn close too you without you noticing it.. Surely you dont want to be killed by a guy just randomly spawning close getting a easy kill and your maybe being very cautiously..(on purpose or not)

Since this patch will fix(try to fix) the server jumping.. Just watched a stream on twitch 3 people teaming then suddenly 2 guys spawns 20 meters from them and kills them.. thought of what about making so that if a person spawn very close to another he is moved 500 - 1000m away from the other person.(even if its not on purpose) Not sure if this would work very good ingame though.. (Would have to spawn him in tree lines, not in the open/water, not close to zombies and a cliff and fall to his death etc..) Would also need to tell the difference between your friends and unknown players.. Or just a small subtle notification on both the player spawning and the player already in the game, if someone spawns very close.(a small unfamiliar sound or animation on the guy turning his head sideways for 2 sec looking around or similar) Would have to be something subtle, you dont notice too much that breaks the ingame feeling.. I think this would be easier and also work better ingame then the first suggestion.. Probably alot of other different ways to implement some sort of notification of players spawning very close on purpose or not.. Only for close spawns ofc not players already in the game

What`s your idea/plan to make people communicate more in this game? (Right now everyone just shoot on sight 99% of the time) It needs some kind of consequences for murdering people. Right now you only benefit by killing people, not the other way around.. Being a good guy dont give you any benefits at all. only a bullet between your eyes.. The moral choices you make should have a bigger impact towards yourself and other people you meet

Calm down everybody.. shit happens.. just wait it out.. real life can be fun sometimes too belive it or not.. get out instead of sitting inside F5'ing all night

Been having the same problem.. Tent placement: As of now the tent placement seems to be very bugged. Though, the following steps seem to fix most of these problems: Crouch and enter first person view, look at the ground ahead of you, press G to open your gear and try to place the tent. It wont work the first time, so move back a little step using your S key and try again while your gear window is still open. Try this like 5-10 times, works! It is possible to place tents very close to trees, even under them, also, the area doesn't have to be perfectly flat

Oki think im gonna just put the items and the bag separate until it gets fixed properly

So what your saying is that 1 full backpack is actually only one item/spot in the tents right? Yeah never trust server restart right :) I mostly gonna use it for clearing towns instead of bringing a sniper into town where i don`t need it.

Hehe yeah I know but thx anyway :) just found the answer to my own question on dayzwiki. posting if anyone else is wondering : A tent can hold up to five backpacks, ten weapons & tools and fifty general items... Thats alot! :o For example one tent can hold five binoculars, five M4A1s, fourty STANAG mags, ten engine parts and five backpacks at the same time. If you place a filled backpack into the tent, the contents of the backpack will remain.

Thx for the fast reply gonna try this out right now.. Putting my coyotebackpack and DMR in tent and going in with a akm instead in cherno.. But still can i put a full backpack in tent right? Do anyone know of a site you can see how much space/slots a tent is btw..

Question: Can you put empty/full backpacks inside tents? After playing for awhile now i haven`t really messed around with tents very much. But now that i got pretty good equipment and some extra guns in my car. I usally put the good stuff inside the tent and go newb into the big towns(cherno,electro,stary,berenzino and ofc NWAF) with just a decent gun and empty backpack.. And can i have more then one tent(on same server) Thx in advance..

Thought this was fixed in 1.7.2.3.. [FIXED] Ghillie and skin removal on login

Throwing empty cans & bottles seems like it could need some tweaking later.. (I haven`t really used them much earlier but since the latest patch now that the zombies are more alert they come in handy) I always have 2-3 cans when going through a city.. They work pretty well most of the time, but sometime the Zombies don`t react at all when i throw close to them.. Since i can hear the sound where i am standing, they should hear it too right? :) What about making a small animation where you can knock on walls maybe.. Would be great to clearing houses with zombies when you have no equipment.

Sooo.. anyone found a bear trap yet? :)
