    Third person idea

    They work quite well, depending on the vehicle they range from small to quite large. You even have a back up camera in some vehicles. All are using the new PiP technology. Some pics. http://abload.de/img...17-20-s5cwq.jpg http://abload.de/img/arma32013-06-2617-20-02dhz.jpg http://abload.de/img/arma32013-06-2617-20-o7d17.jpg @Noface They are still better than nothing and you can still recognize objects in them, you never know if they might up the details, it's still a beta you know. A lot of games don't even have mirrors... No matter what a studio does there will always be big time whining.
  2. Since it became a Satandalone Title...I would prefer the same setting for everyone, not 100 difficulty settings. You can't make it easy to loot on easy servers then kos on the hard ones. With a certain view angle there is only one solution to even the "battlefield" for everyone...

    It should be a limited view like having binocs ( did they plan or add mrirors in DayZ btw. if so mirrors like in ArmA 3 would be of course the greatest addition ), you shouldn't be able to see everything, just a section of what you would see in 3P maybe about 1/5 size round cut of the screen would still be a lot, maybe still too much. That would be the only reasonable alternative for those who still want to peep around corners. In the end it will still be "i want to see my cute ass in the new camo pants i found in that house" or "i want to see my enemy"...

    How to stop kill on sight mentality.

    It's only natural to be stronger and have less burden in a group...the numbers already tell the difference...if you fight solo you die solo. If you take a group head on you are stupid and dead. There have to be limits for solo players, we are not Rambo. Well...it's like buying a F1 racing game, joining multiplayer and trying to play it like a crash derby?

    White flag

    Ehm...lower your weapon??? :huh:
  6. If you want to play a PC game get used to KB and mouse...

    simple good idea for mod

    Yeah like add 5 mins for every suicide after the 2nd...would be fine by me since i always see the positive in a bad spawn location: the worse the spawn the more likely you will not encounter a kos player.

    Vehicle Direct Comms Idea

    Yeah...good idea on how to attract attention lol.

    How to stop kill on sight mentality.

    Completely wrong. There is never a reason to chaos until you make one. In this case boredom and in case of DayZ people who are not willing to play the game in a normal way because they play the game with the same mentality like in every other shooter. "kill on sight, no interaction". We met so many good people due to interaction and also killed a lot who's only interaction was the one with their triggerfinger and lmb. You can do something even without goals, not just kos. If you can't accomplish anything further than that you are narrowminded and have no imagination. Even if there was a lot to do the same people would kos claming there is nothing else to do. same with Sahrani Life: Players could easily distract themselves with something else but all they did was to clash with with cops.

    Third person idea

    BIS ruined the game with 3P view, well the "game" wasn't actually a game in the fist place. It's based on VBS which is used for training purposes where 3P was a necessary part for demonstration purposes, they should have removed it when they released OFP over a decade ago especially with the PVP part in mind. They can still correct their mistake with ArmA 3 and Dayz and ignore the uproar. People will still buy the game if they like the quality of the content and not because "you can watch yourself while mastrubating".

    White flag

    They should use a big white flag so the other guy can cover up the body properly afterwards...

    How to stop kill on sight mentality.

    Solo players should not be given "penalties", "limitations" sound more neutral. If they choose to play alone they should need longer to accomplish things compared to a group, they hav less firepower, they are always outnumbered etc... Banditry as we know it is nothing else than wanton murder, banditry needs to be roleplayed ( bandit and a willing victim ), of course if the victim resists it's completly apporopriate to use deadly force. But not like always a shot from far away then walk away because it's too far to get to the body. If somebody suddenly pops up in front of me that would also be ok if it ends up in a firefight because both were shocked to see a player that close. Reinforcing doors would be great if they can stop them from moving through blocked openings.

    Third person idea

    If you actually set up your game instead of just playing instantly like a console player would do you would have found out that you can turn head bob off....

    Natrual Motion

    Natural movement ist the last you should worry about in DayZ, it served it's purpose so far and only became a problem when the CoD, BF, console faction started playing DayZ, there are more pressing problems like bugs, bugs and bugs. And did i already say bugs?
  15. enforcer1975

    Third person idea

    The offered suggestion is quite good but i don't think they can pull it off plus it add a possibility to "cheat the blocking feature away" although it might silence most players who are honest about only wanting to see their character ( where i doubt that most people are beeing honest about that ). If a game is good enough people will see that you don't need certain features in a game to make it more immersive. Like in every other shooter: It's more exciting not to know if an enemy will run around the corner any moment with his guns blazing hoping to hit someone than both opponents peeking around the corner in 3P at the same time trying to see what the other one is doing which is kind of awkward.

    Third person idea

    Then tell me why does almost any shooter, actually every major shooter come without 3P and why should ArmA be with 3P when they have the same limited fov ( excl. those console games where it is cool to see your own ass ) ??? FOV can be altered in every game even in ArmA...you can google it, you can not miss it.

    [SA] Shooting in the vehicles.

    The cover provided would be small depending on the vehicle. A truck would of course provide good cover. Often enough a bullet hitting the hood just above where the air filter or carborator or whatever is under there goes into the passenger compartment. If it's powerful enough it can go through the length of a vehicle provided it doesn't hit anything solid like the engine block. In game 5.56 and 5.45 penetrate a truck door maybe even both at point blank. 7.62 can do it even from far away.

    Learning SA

    haha like anyone would be allowed to publish such a thing...

    Homemade explosives and traps

    If they add a 50/50 chance of the builder blowing himself up in the process of making a bomb i welcome it.
  20. That's the fun in the game...you never know where it hit you from...

    Idea for Mod and SA: vehicles, more maintainance.

    With the low tech cars that are in the Chernarussian region you could neglect any kind of maintenance and they would still run for years if you just put some motor oil ( and maybe change it every year or two ) and fuel in them and change tires every now and then. I drove my 87 Mazda 323 doing just that during my apprenticeship and the only thing that failed me in those almost 4 years was the ignition coils. I can't say the same about today's cars. Every time i pick up my current car out of the car workshop i seem to have another part that needs to be fixed...Oh yes...and most of the time they want to plug in to know what your car wants...not really user friendly.
  22. I hope it will only be Radio Moscow lol
  23. enforcer1975

    Get rid of chernarus.

    All those maps are pre DayZ...i don't think they will go for community maps. They'd rather make their own...might have to do with pride.

    [SA/Mod] - Natural Medicines

    Good idea but it isn't done with just "adding water and let it sit for 3 minutes" even if it is a game otherwise the sickness wouldn't have an impact on the players life. And i don't think you can't use it every 5 minutes, something with immunity like with antibiotics etc...
