People who have no job can spend more time in games than people who do? That's a conclusion nobody ever had before.

oh look kids, it's this dead horse again, everyone grab a club!

Okay you got shot in the night, so what. How do you know it was a hacker, and what makes you think that any change to dayZ will prevent ESP hacks to work.

they should make it like some other games have, repairing an item restore it to full condition, but actually lower it's maximum condition. So after a while it simply can't be repaired anymore.

"No kill" servers don't exist, they are created by new server admins who apparently didn't read the terms and conditions of their server rental. And the idea of "gearing up" or "getting experience" on a server without the normal challenge is abhorrent. If a player is ruining your personal experience, here is a news flash: deal with it, nobody care.

The accepted standard for making a game is the following: come up with an idea.write down your design doc: game concept, take decisions on features, mechanics, etc.build a proof of concept prototype.(Alpha)pile on the features and functions that are required by your design doc step by step, eventually adjusting things as testing goes.fix glaring bugs that completely prevent internal testing (systematic crashes, features that simply don't work).feature freeze (no more feature will be added from this point)(Beta)fix all the bugs by order of importance, tweak balance, some minor features may be added. AI work. (Not all bugs ever get fixed before release due to time constrains).(Gold)The "shipping" version is ready for release.(Post release support, optional) one or more patches to correct add what could not be done in time or to correct bugs/balance issues discovered post release.

Nothing better than a friendly surprise to your neighbor in the form of a pit lined with sharpened sticks rubbed in animal feces...

The greatest misdirection in this game is to think that your failure solely come down to your own bad decisions, and that taking a safer approach will save you. But most of the time the dices are stacked against you from the start. ...also some people will be natural human carpets for their entire life...

Well it's not like the forum is going to influence where the game is heading.

I'd love ropes for more pleasant things :)

well someone has to test them right? If you arent testing, why are you here? bug report that stuff

If you are tired of running.... walk?

I've seen this topic before... You do not design a game solely with hackers in mind, or you might as well stop making games. It's actually the fairest way to do it, why should you get a break for not being in combat after all? Why stop at 10 seconds? 10 minutes is good too.

Dare i mention that at the present time the devs priority is not to make the game bug free, stable or even enjoyable?

I sort of disagree with some of the last statements of the OP, you don't get to shape the game by buying into an early access, the developers have no obligation to steer their vision to make it closer to yours.

Dare i mention that the game is set in "post-soviet state"? :D Just joking.

Same, to me one of the big issues of DayZ is the metagame that result from a static map.

Again, i think they should make it so you have to tap forward to run,, and keep tapping to keep running. Realistically speaking, human being WALK when going from A to B over a long distance.

Id rather have them ditch the bloody M4 entirely :)

wrong game

Maybe there is no "right" or "wrong" for this and it's all down to a matter of preference?

Well this was cute OP, now listen to your mother and eat your greens.

I thought this could be a nice little experience in the context of DayZ. We have all seen a lot of zombie movies, played a lot of zombie movies, our heads are full of images and situations. People are full of imagination, and music sometimes triggers bursts of creativity (well.. at least for me). Think about your favorite zombie movies, press play, close your eyes, and tell me what you see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIsptmGQEto

Well, my guess is that they changed something in the lighting that makes more colors that where previously dark greys, fall into into pure black. Raising gamma doesn't effectively make lights brighter, it only adjust how the different levels of light are translated in in screen color, making dark greys lighter and easier to discern from each others. However you can raise gamma as much as you want, previously unseen details will not come out of pure black.

poor knife...
