Because there is no such thing as a free lunch. But i guess you want the advantage of shooting everyone AND looting their pristine gear.

So you did it just because you could hm? Maybe just because for once you felt you could avenge your previous deaths? On a guy who did nothing but help you? Not even for fun? What is wrong with you.

Sorry but this is a shitty idea. This is a game where you can apply antiseptic, or drink it, not because it's edible, but because "why don't we allow players to eat and drink anything regardless of whether it's gonna be good or not". And you come talking about "Base establishing structures", radius restriction, minimum playercount and base value?

Nothing to fix here, it's a balancing act, it makes trading or robbing more attractive

UN is to peace as much as Bach is to heavy metal.

LEARN TO DEFEND YOURSELF Don't come crying to the devs that the other players are being mean to you. I do not barge into a game's forum asking them to change the game's fundamental to cater to what i think the game should be about. I go look for a game better suited to my tastes.

Last time i checked games don't have to be classified. A lot of steam games are not available in retail stores so i sincerely doubt whether it's classified in Australia or not will matter..

Why should the devs care? The game is already dumbed down as is.

Here is the million $ question: What would it achieve in dayz? We already have painting.

Have players loot them one at a time :)

I will just post this, maybe that's a solution to keep precise weapons?

I love this kind of guy :) Gentle, well mannered, an easy target :D

Saline is okay to top up some blood loss but that's more of a blood pressure thing. It adds volume that your heart can pump around your body but doesn't perform the function of blood. Ideally players should prefer to use blood whenever they can and use saline when they simply don't have the right blood type on hand, or as a supplement.

It's not that it can't exist, it is just really hard, real life hard. You can check Gandhi's biography, exemplary life, but beaten, imprisoned and finally murdered. "True heroes" are far from the "good murderers" portrayed by movies. (yeah when a good guy kill a bad guy it's still murder)

Mounted bayonets have more range than just a knife, they also have a lot more mass and momentum behind them when stabbing.

You say that until you embed yourself in another car driving equally fast in the opposite direction :)

And where is the suggestion here captain obvious?

You say we need this, you don't really explain why it has to be foolproof or an omnipresent aura. It's a cruch, it's just bad, heroes vs bandits is such a Disney-like simplification. What do you do of people who will decide on a coin flip whether they are gonna give you food, water and protection or lure you in a corner to terminate you like a dog? There is no such thing as "evil" and "good" people. People don't simply do harmful things all the time (or good things all the time). And those systems disregard the subjectivity of the situation, which is why you got killed: Fun, sport, sadism.Opportunism, pragmatism.Revenge, anger, spite.Fear, despair.Chaos, entropy, mistake.

1. You drive on the wrong side of the road :) 2. People will probably turn any moving car into swiss cheese. 3. I HOPE they won't make it this easy to drive offroad at top speed. On a sidenote, if you hit anything immoveable at this speed anyone in the vehicle should probably die on impact.

Well the concern of the devs is to finish the game by then, wether anyone is still playing it isn't exactly their problem.

Bullets are not hammers, they tear through you but don't really transmit much kinetic force to you. I mean it's a few grams of lead/copper hitting a fully grown man through a very small contact point.

I'd wait until the cake is done to start decorating.

Yes but in the hands of civilians, how does it affect letality really? Army has it's own specifications because guns are not personal, have to be flexible, and accurate over a long period of itme and be usable by any soldier, and reuseable. In the context of dayZ not a whole lot of these qualities really matter.

So if someone try to shoot you from far away and miss you more than an arbitrary threshold you should be able to log out risk free? Or you should be able to log out instantly against people with axes? Don't think so.

For me it's more wether a granular "pouch pile" is really worth implementing. I tried implementing a system like this in a project of mine, and realized later that it simply wasn't worth it, instead i settled for a system of mounting slots where items are mounted on visual slots on the players character if they fit the slot type, ex: if you carry grenades and have a belt, they will show on the grenade slots of the belt, but you don't have to manually place them there, that's just too cumbersome.
