Yes but how much meat can one carry with him? Carrying a lot of meat = less supplies like ammo and so on. They'll run out quick then they'd have to search for animals which takes time so it's not that easy. Pretty much if you're shooting at them and you manage to hit I doubt meat saves them.

Don't listen to the casual gamers

most suggestions I see will surely not make it through, they are thought from one's perspective and not the whole community, not to mention some are ridiculous. -
[Forum] Raise the avatar filesize.
masacrualex replied to Legacy (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Most forums got the 10kb one, that avatar size, being png/jpg doesn't matter. It's the same quality. The size is too small to see any quality difference. -
No it doesn't ^ it's a game, people will shoot, no consequences, no death log. You can just shoot everyone you meet and nobody would know. This keeps people from random killing because of the bandit stigma. So I decided and vote to keep the skins.
-
If you remove them, how will we deal with the "bandits".. because now they'll look just like everybody else. I've seen idiots whose only deed was grief, kill everyone, makarov or not, just shooting people. How do you deal with that? I' doon't know wat to vote.

Hunting should be more challenging
masacrualex replied to x7steelers7x's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
The animals as they are, are usually far away from zombie spawns so them meeting eachother is rare. Then again, animals by themselfs are hard to find, having zombies hunt them down would render finding animals to even a lower percentage. If I'm not mistaken, the animals in ARma 2 just don't tend to flee. They usually hold still and slowly walk around, it's a engine thing I assume. I never seen an animal run in arma 2 but the bunny. Imo this shouldn't be high priority at all, making the animals run wouldn't add a thing, you already pretty much get them from distance, having them run like crazy in a field, will just make you chase a bit, ending the same. -
Having the food / thirst level affect you by percentage would suck. Let's say from 100% I drop to 60% hunger, why would that slow me down? It means I'd have to eat non-stop which makes supplies useless. I can still run like hell if I have to and I'm hungry. Even flashing red hungry if you have to. Sorry but no. I had to run at some point for over 15 minutes without finding anything. Sprinting in this game is a must. Not everyone can afford to walk for 60 minutes, first boredom, then second time wasted. There's a lot of wasteland that you cannot afford to walk it off, you gotta sprint.

let's hope that he doesn't put the game down, making people hate it.

Sorry I disagree. When you get shot or you get hurt and bleed, the blood doesn't just spill out like a fountain unless it was your jugular or an artery was hit. You have clothing on you which would soak most of the blood. Having the zombies smell blood would be annoying, there's already the noise factor and spot factor in. I, for so many times got chased, while bleeding, managed to shoot those zombies and bandage myself, or one time I desperately ran inside a house and found bandages while bleeding. Having the zombies smell blood would just ruin your chances. It's already hard to get rid of chasers when without ammo and no houses nearby. The scenario you have presented is rare as well : Usually when you get sniped you're dead, and most likely there wouldn't be zombies in your reach because the sniper would have a hard time to hit you while you'd be running from zombies anyway. Let's not forget those are zombies, not sharks.

I've always loved Dark Ambient and in this mod, it fits perfectly. The tracks that are already in game are freaking sweet. I'd like to see more of those added, they really add a certain atmosphere depending where you are at, woods, town, fields and they stick to you, at least it happens to me. here's a few samples : note, I am not asking for those to be added in game :D it's up to the dev! Dead Factory - Awakening Tor Lundvall - Wires - this one fits well enough with the power factories and those big electricity poles. Didn't seem to find a thread suggesting this :P
-
I don't think more zombies would make it scarier, but changing some aspects of them might.
-
imo spawns should be changed some more and not actually shown in a pic, let the people find them by themselfs, it's better when it's a mystery. Like, I expect to find good gear at the airport without having to read a sheet or whatever :P Also good thing that pic didn't load for me "Unable to connect". What'd be great is to have random sheets you can find in game telling you info about good spots for loot, like left by "dead survivors" for their friends. Would make it interesting, quest like.

^ there's some females who beat better than men and are basically catwomen. Anything is possible, but yeah I agree, women are bad drivers.

3rd Person View, why I support it, and why it should stay in game
masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Not long ago I ambushed a guy near a building. He was standing in the I was on a slight hill 50 meters away. I shot at him. He got hit and out of the good netcode he bugged around a bit and made it out through the second door. Now there I stood. I was on the field and he was behind the building. Which in the end means he will move next to the corners and use 3rs person to spot me while I cannot do anything about it. This is just seriously retarded. nvm read wrong, edited, too bad. next time ask for friendly and avoid-.. oh wait you just shoot everyone you see. Wasn't that meant for alie freak and not Viktor? Wasn't it? Well I still answered to alie freak above. -

Are you aware I was being sarcastic right? I know how to google terms. You don't have to link me. In this situation borksy, it is ok. Trust me. -
No, arma supports no playable girl characters. Pretend you were a girl and you had to cut your hair because zombies kept pulling on it, so that's why you look malish :P

masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You using big words that I don't understand, I'll take that as disrespect. Thing is, what is your point lol, I see you just spend time here whining on how bad the game is because of 3rd person instead of playing it. -
3rd Person View, why I support it, and why it should stay in game
masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
whatever bro go play arma 2 ace, you can't have this mod your own way just because you obviously see it way too differently compared to most of us. All the servers run in 3rd person for a reason, this is a survival game ,it's perfect, updates are on the way, you can't just have it your own way once again, especially when you request shit that'd affect everyone. Go play on 1st person servers or simply quit if it's not too hardcore 4 u. And I"m done replaying to you. -
Well done bro, imma use this :D

3rd Person View, why I support it, and why it should stay in game
masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Third person server : Everyone can go third person. Everyone - same deal. First Person Server : Everyone is forced 1st person, no over shoulder view, everyone - same deal. What more do you want over that? It's that simple. You choose the server type you want. Any other complaint related to that is void. What advantage would a guy who plays on 3rd person servers have on a 1st person one? The gear? Lol wut, that happens in every game with gear on any server. There's always someone with better gear. Having third person on doesn';t mean you loot faster or get better shots. I'm glad it's only like 1-4 of you who support this badly, it won't happen. :) -
3rd Person View, why I support it, and why it should stay in game
masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Then how do you explain people going in barns and such, picking the items, changing servers, spawning in the same spot, picking again new items? How do you explain that? You can't possibly think just because 3rd person is allowed on a server, it gives them people such a big advtange that they get super nuclear weapons. So far I only played third person, I still died, I had the same slow progress as usual. I tried attacking bandits, third person enabled, I got whooped. I didn't get super gear to swap servers and pwn. You still gotta be exposed when you fire your gun so please, stop trying. Y'all just haters. Stick to your 1st person servers, name tags off and nobody will detect your ass when you climb trees and what not by hovering over your position, nobody will cheat their way to spot you. And that's it, telling me those people "Cheated" on 3rd person servers to get gear is lame, everyone has 3rd person view on those, aka the same advantage, it's still as harsh in 3rd person and not everyone u kill has gear. Hell I barely ever got to murder someone even with 3rd person. Because it's not that easy. Y'all probably the people who're the most hated on most servers, I bet you just kill everyone without calling friendly and you're mad some people get you blaming it on 3rd person. Hell I never seen someone whine so much about 3rd person, not even in arma 2 oa, without mods. -

masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Viktor, if it's all about PVP cheating and so on. Tell me, why should this feature be disabled from the mod while it is possible to have it on / off server side? Some servers run with it off, some servers run with it on (most). Some servers have name tags, some don't. Some have crosshairs on some don't. It is a matter of taste here and it's up to the servers. IMO. It shouldn't be a big deal. If you find the mod lacks servers running 1st person mode only, then get your own. -
Don't keep asking for CHANGES because...
masacrualex replied to meshcarver's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
^ Yeah it's really intelligence to request halt of new stuff for a mod in alpha. Also for the sake of it, stop comparing this mod with big devs and games, they're different. This is a mod, not a stand alone game. It's just in alpha. Some of you don't know much when you call a game bad for having too many features, I'm yet to have ever heard of that or read of it or see people whine about it lol and I've played way too many games not to have had a chance to bump into it. -

masacrualex replied to tearran's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
NO I didn't admit shit, it's still frustrating to run 30 minutes in 1st person view even without headbob, I'd rather do it in 3rd person, well that's how I do it. Stop freaking following my comments and trying to prove shit, you're getting frustrating. You're just mad 3rd person will never be disabled. I was only making a point 2 that guy. Also learn the differences between hard survival game and annoying arma 2 engine. Also for your information, I am against disabling 3rd person for the whole mod, it's up to players if they want 3rd or 1st and there's servers for each. Stop being a retard and requesting it so hard to happen for the whole mod. More servers run with third person on because people like it that way, it's less frustrating. Like I said you're just mad because 3rd pers will never be core disabled. Now stop chasing me around coming with provoking comments.
