I use one of my fingers. I am creative like that!

My guess is that when the standalone introduces more custom clothing and different zombie skins everyone will look alike anyway.

Also, in the settings in DayZ Commander check the Additional Launch Parameters.

Yes, I know. I mean that the ability to communicate with the whole map ruins the immersion. Seeing a guy getting killed and telling the rest of the server the position of someone and such. It's stupid and must be removed. :)

Running as administrator all the time? Verifying the game files in Steam? You COULD try to get in contact with a server admin and see if they can help you out by checking the server logs why you get kicked?

Why?

1. Post in the Troubleshoot sectino 2. 1.7.2.6 is the current version of DayZ, 1.0 propably refers to the current version of the map, in this case Lingor 3. Tell us more, so we can help! What third-party software, if any are you using? Steam? :)

Use DayZ Commander, it installs everything for you. ;)

Give more information if you want help. :) Do you use DayZ Commander or not? Have you properly updated all files and the map? Have you put the proper lines in the launch settings?

What a cheerful fella you seem to be. Go to bed, kid. To OP, I had a similiar problem a while back with my brothers Steam and mine. Have you played on the same computer? Logged in on different Steam accounts on the same computer or something like that? The same CD-key can have been registered on both computers and then it would be the same GUID. :)

The one thing destroying the immersion is side chat. It has to be removed! Otherwise, the few hours I played on Namalsk was great immersion wise but that damn side chat...

So how do we find you if you are lost?

Where any recent beta patches removed when you restored the system? Also, your progress won't be lost if you reinstall.

He did answer earlier that he never owned the game before. But if it was a cracked version then technically he did not "own" it before so he wasn't lying... Nice detective work though smasht!

By the way the idea of spawning with clean clothes and get dirtier the longer you survive is great. I wonder if there could be some mechanic that can visually show if a player has played for a long time overall or is a complete beginner as well? Beards? I don't know. :)

Figured it would be in there, I just woke up so I am confused. :)

Read through it all but can't see anything about blood leaving trails. So if you bleed you leave blood on the ground, walls, bushes and trees. Not much, but enough to track. Anyway, great ideas, hopefully some of them will be considered at least!

Same questions as above and do you share connection with anyone else?

A question for you people that knows this kind of stuff: are there realistic drawbacks to wearing a ghillie suit in real life? Do you get warm in one? Can you move easily? Do they make noise? If yes, this should definitely be a part of the game. :)

Would be great if the mouse scroll could be used in this way. Maybe not in this game, but it is an interesting mechanic. Walk forward and scroll to gradually change moving speed. :)

By the way, there should be some "carrying" animations as well. Like when you pick up something that realistically won't fit in a backpack (car engines comes to mind) your character actually has to put away whatever weapon he carries (put it on his back perhaps) and actually carry the heavy stuff. EDIT: Awesome typos

Since clothing is being expanded on and rocket mentioned the importance of boots recently I would suggest that the inventory system allows for a separate left and right hand/foot to give it a more scavenging feel of using whatever you find. Finding a pair of boots should be a very, very good thing.

I guess that is what would be cool with it; that once "useful" things will become useless trash in the game. So when you go through a house you cherish the canned food and throw the video games away. :)

What's wrong with the loading screens? Should they have background images? Music? A minigame where you can practice combos? Or just expository texts (bean recipes?)?
