One problem is that everyone will encounter...how would an animal or the guy driving the rc car know where to go? Yes dogs have the sense of smell but that has to be trained too and they have to find a trace first and choose the right direction to run, and rain washes it away and dogs can't smell 24/7. You would literally have to find the needle in the haystack unless you know where the player has his base and leave a message there. I'm sure a messenger would die of lead poisoning before he reaches the target, maybe the target himself shoots him and doesn't read the message etc. It's almost like in those days where there were no cellphones...you call and nobody is at home, bad luck. You wanted to call someone on the way, phone booth, no coins, bad luck. If you look back you wonder how we could survive back then :lol:

OMG LOL Gews

And according to common sense they always are in this close to take advantage of their defence capabilities. Sometimes carriers don't even have escorts...

Yeah like a ton of donkey piss and dung sprayed on you sou you start vomiting...and after the guys spray some deadly chemical on you they won't be able to get your gear since those idiots just contaminated the whole area.

They would just collapse the same way a normal person would since their body is still a living system, you destroy a body part and it will have the same effect. On the other hand if they were undead like in TWD they wouldn't care if they were shot unless it was the head, then again physics ( should i can it physics? ) would still apply: if you shot off a leg they wouldn't be able to walk, if you shot off their jaw they wouldn't be able to bite. If they were to some degree capable of regenerating they would still be out of commision until they are healed. f.e. everyone knows Wolverine and his ability to heal every wound, a friend told me that in one comic even he was overwhelmed by Captain America when he emptied his gun into him rendering him heavily wounded and incapable of fighting. Damage takes effect no matter what.

Read below..they are not rotting...

And what would it be good other than shooting newspawns on the coast?

I still don't see a reason for players to interact...this would be more of a reason to shoot eachother because now not just food and weapons are rare but clothing, too. So now you run around with a backpack full of weapons, ammo and food supplies and a plastic bag full with spare shoes and clothes...Do you really think players will start sharing if they just shoot others out of fear or for KoS?

I think you should read some more about military eqipment and their length of use. The base model of the Littlebird was built around 1966 and was later modified to the "attack" version in 1981 so having a MH around wouldn't be unrealistic but again like every other US military hardware...out of place. You didn't have a vehicle mix in OFP because that was playing during the cold war. A lot of the hardware the military uses today dates back to pre 1980, you wouldn't imagine that todays pilots might be the sons of those who used the equipment for the first time. I hope this doesn't turn out into a magpul only SA..i was really disappointed to see only M4s in one video.

With ACE they could...i was shot in the back multiple times.

Try to defend yourself against a raging gorilla....that's the kind of effect you will have on the zeds.

Says Wiki. But that doesn't mean that they have state of the art of everything over there. The current ArmA 2 ( not OA ) vehicles match the setting very well. Imo there should be more of that kind.

We don't know how many zombies the engine can handle, afaik they wanted to spawn a fixed amount of zombies and loot at the beginning of the map andspawn new ones if needed. I doubt most of the servers can handle that many, they might use a trick like having a set amount of zeds depending on the town size and spawning new ones once the players get closer so nobody can use the zombies as indicator for player presence. The more entities the server has to handle the lower it's fps might become until you only have desync to fight. With a lot of players having mediocre rigs and/or bad internet they might even drag down the server even more.

I don't know about that...it's way too old to still be in a working condition, spare parts might also be a problem since they are pretty old and not that common to Chernarus. Old russian stuff might still be there. The original Chernarus vehicles are imo the most appropriate vehicles for this region, a SUV or some kind of luxury car might not be out of place but not that common either, kind of like utility before luxury or how you want to call it. Players have to keep in mind that this is supposed to be somewhere in the most remote regions of the "Soviet Union", one of the second most unimportant places you can find. The most unimportant places would have donkey carts as the most modern transportations available.

If they made it like in Wasteland where the objects were spawned at predefined locations, in case of DayZ they wouldn't just stand around scattered in a town but standing in the houses where furniture would normally be found.

Don't rely too much on the visibilty meter like Fluxley said. It's not a game like Assassins Creed or Hitman where an icon shows your visibility which imo is sometimes pretty stupid considering the actors actually have perfect LOS but only because you are using the wall hug mechanic they can't see you, if you don't use the hug mechanic they miracously see you in the same situation lol. If someone doesn't see you crawling on the floor from 30ft away then they would be blind. On the other hand: yes, the detection system kind of sucks and is difficult to comprehend or explain.

Bushes add a lot of load to the PC. With 3P on it will be no problem to see everything from above.

Afaik sniping takes the smallest part in the game...i thought this game was about survival which it will be doing in the near future. If you want to snipe with all the effects and without getting your ass torn up by zeds, gut effects and x-ray i recommend Sniper Elite.

Serves you right..finally a patch that assrapes the assrapers.

Playing solo comes with disadvantages, you know it yourself since you have team experience. But i wouldn't want to have convinced solo players to have the same or almost the same advantage as team players since most of them chose to play that way just because team players lose their team, just find new ones instead.

A Lamborghini wouldn't be unrealistic but completely out of place imo like certain things players want to find in Chernarus.

Well it was part of the storyline and i'm sure a lot of people want it parked in front of Cherno or Elektro so they can have 10 years of supplies of western weapons and ammo...

Decent like containers full of weapons and ammo am i right? I guess i can never go wrong in this case. This

Imo what you see in Chernarus is a light forest and not a thick forest or jungle like you posted. I would also love to see more cover from the treetops, i'm prett sure it is technically possible. On the other hand the possiblity to encounter an aircraft in the near future of DayZ unless it's a free-for-all-full-gear-tanks-and-gunships-server and the passengers actually seeing you are pretty slim and the chances of a wannabe weekend doorgunner to hit you even more.

I wonder why you just limit it to this...i would shoot him, hang him, cut off his dick and stick it in his mouth, hang his ball sack as a necklace and put a sign on him saying "This is what happens if you come into my territory". If you want to shock someone do it like that....blood on the wall...could just be red paint lol.
