Yeah that's what i experienced the first days of playing the mod before the other mods came out and before KoS was a problem. No hatchet and i really wanted to know if the small industrial ahead of me had loot i could use but a zed was inside breathing heavily...then it came out and i ran for felt hours to get rid of it.

That's what you get for getting an all-in-one system...omg i just looked up the prices...i could get the same system with none mobile parts for about 60% of what a 27" mac costs over here...does that thing even have a dvd or br slot?

There is no way to stop BE from initalizing unless you want to kiddies with cheap hacks to play on the servers. That's the disadvantage of that system, you turn it off and even clients with less powerful rigs get good fps, turn it on BAM! but it's also a good way to make people not use an office PC/laptop for gaming.

I think it's good to have some info about the other players because this stream of info is more important than a side chat full of spam imo. Sometimes it's a laugher when you see xxx getting banned for using hacks.

Yeah exactly what you would feel like in an apocalype when you can't just go into the next supermarket and fill your cart with chips and beer/coke. Look at how the refugees look like in africa, they have the same problem: No supermarket, minimal supplies and KoS.

When i raise my hands i can still be shot IRL...so i guess that's a niet?

...i didn't see any text...when i quoted i found this...the fridge didn't work huh?

I also wonder about how some countries intend to censor game content or actually it's not game content. Developers already have problems with games where the player takes an active role in torturing in game characters...DayZ has said content and goes a step further...now players are the victims. Way over ethic boundaries. Would they be able to block the game? Bought is bought i guess...otherwise BIS has to take out content in most countries.

That's why i advocate either something like forced teamspeak use with something like ACRE or a method to transmit voice from every 3rd party comms into the game so people can't do shit like that. Of course they can still type via outside chat but everyone would wonder why your companion always lags behind and maybe suspect a trap.

Oh this is great...you would normally do that ( drop stuff ) if you were drowning or wouldn't swim with gear on in the first place ( that's why they invented boats and other floatation devices ) ...but people mistook it for a bug and cried for BIS to change it...what they did <_<

If rocket dreams about these ideas he honestly doesn't know his stuff...he is already dreaming about things than are possible in maybe 10 years. But i totally agree with one toon per server..100% hopping stopping.

Well it should handle both...but we have amazing physics which other games don't have like tanks rocketing to the moon when they bump into a boulder...

3 blocks of wood = 1 wooden bowl 1 wooden bowl + 1 bucket of milk + 2 blocks of wheat = 1 portion of cereal ...oh wait wrong game. Well you could just stuff the ingredients in your mouth add the water and chew a bit can't you?? ;) Or a kevlar helmet...

If they go the right way it will be: "look for foord and water as fast as possible and not for the next military base and grab the next assault rifle to shoot others". Maybe then will players "play together" to gather supplies. Time will tell. Well duh...of course when you have the part that are casual players and the other part marathon hoppers. Of course you will have uneven distribution. This is where private hives with limited loot respawn will come in handy. tbh the game was hyped and at least 50% are whining about the game not giving them anything to do. If you want to know what can be done in the SA look at the mod. Of course the game needs weapons but what you get in most times is a bit too much considering so many people whine about KoSers so obviously there is an abundance of weapons and ammo. Food is not yet important for those people.

How do you want to disassemble a sniper/bolt action rifle? Both parts are not that much smaller than the assembled gun. Where transporting in a backback would come in handy is with really short weapons such as carbines or smgs. Otherwise it would just stick/fall out. The game would be balanced if you had to think about every gramm you carried.

You are supposed to have scarce resources...that's why it's called a survival game.

Forget the rest...at least this one has some coolness factor... And you can fly higher than a SR-71...if you have enough bullets in your minigun.

Oh yeah i want to see what you do in your treehouse when you are spotted by KoSing players...although it would look great. We should rather be able to claim a house rather than having to build from scratch.

If people were playing the game the way it's supposed to be played hopping would not be an issue. Only because they can't take it that they can't find anything they hop. When will it get in peoples minds that the game is about hardships and not about getting geared up in guinness world record time?

You do know why they designed the barrels to fit the bullets that are supposed to be fired or vice versa? It's not just about the caliber it's also about the chamber If you are lucky you just have a jam, less lucky...your hand is gone...even less lucky your face is gone. The barrels are also the cause that the bullets reach their speed > "pressure build-up", so if you were to fire a "subcaliber" ( and i don't mean sabot with subcaliber ) bullet in a gun that fires bigger bullets you would hear a pop and the bullet would just drop out of the barrel if you can actually manage to chamber it. :rolleyes: And you can't just put a heavier projectile in a casing and say it does more damage to the target...yes it damages your chamber, barrel and gun due to higher pressures. People with PSLs trying to fire bullets designed for the SVD can destroy their guns because the PSL wasn't made for the more powerful ammo although it's the basically same.

Not a good idea imo. Loot spawn should be independant of the presence/amount of players. Sure it's a good way to "control" farming and hopping but it should be first come first serve, they have to find another way to deny loot to marathon hoppers because they are the main problem here and not the players who move from place to place the normal way nor the loot spawn mechanic.

If you strap some wings you can at least use the recoil to propel yourself :lol:

A weight, stamina and awareness system should answer if you really need to carry a kevlar helmet and vest and a lmg with 1000 rounds of ammo. A motorcycle helmet should affect your fov and hearing, wearing heavy gear should affect you speed, stamina and diet. Nothing comes without a drawback. Only then will you make players think about what is more important to them.

Doesn't matter what the foliage looks like because it's static. The in-game date should be the same as the server date unless you tamper with it, you can also see that it gets dark pretty early. I don't know if they considered though, someone could set another date and see if you still have the breathing fog because if it is it's a buggy feature.
