Did you try to vault into the center of the top on "school" buildings? Theres a military spawn most people dont know about and i found plenty of scopes there. I hardly visit any military buildings, you just have to know where to look ;)

Its not broken, its a good system to represent the human body which might be tweaked a little bit during the alpha phase. For more detail watch Merino Dayz videos. they are awesome.

I like the idea and i`m pretty sure something like this will be implemented since they created the foundation for item condition but not many effects are actually in the game.

Your suggestion is called private hive, you can use the search function to find out all about them for the mod (they are in since 1 1/2 years) and about the approach for the standalone.

Hm, i think i have seen braindead a gazillion times, cant remember that scene... guess i have to watch it again :) edit: Ha http://www.horrorpilot.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Bad-Taste-1.jpg :)

How could NAT/PAT improve performance in an online game? It would not work if there was any need to port foward anything but to the best of my knowledge i can not think of anything which could be IMPROVED by forwarding a port

Sorry for the OT but is your profile picture from Jacksons Bad Taste?

Apologies, you were totally right with this. As for the rest i think your statements are a bit too strict for a good discussion but i get your point. I agree that there might have been some inspirations here and there but i think Deans story was the basic inspiration for the mod. But as everything in human culture he might have been influenced by other forms of art including twd graphic novels or tv show. But i do strongly disagree this was by any means meant to enter the twd hype train

He had some experiences while they had survival training, you can read that online. I can find no evidence at all that he took inspiration from wlaking dead. As far as i remember (and its been a while so if im wrong shame on me) there was no helicrash in the walking dead graphic novels and the one in the tv series must have been after they were in the mod... edit: and amirdayz, im not sure if youre trolling but you know that there were zombies before the walking dead? Hell there were even zombies before romero. The first movie i can think about is from the 40s "walking with a zombie" or something. And i guess there were books before that. So just because the theme is the same there is no evidence that dean took anything from it. edit no 2: http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/08/ut_dayz/

Was it? I thought it was inspired by Deans experiences in the army?

Haha Gews, cant wait to lie in the grass, put the scope to my eye - "I can feel blood dripping" These recipes for grenade launcher or acog will never make it to the standalone, they contradict everything dean wants this game to be like.

Maybe someone should create a poll if we need more 3rd vs 1st person polls... pollception

You can buy them (old chernarus not chernarus plus) from bi https://store.bistudio.com/chernarus-map-collection/ I have one, its the same design they used for the new ingame maps, nice detail

There are no PVE or no bandit servers at the moment, there is no way for server admins to enforce this. So they just have the ability to put that into the desciption and guess what happens? Every bandit (actually not bandit but player killer) hops on to these servers to find some noobs to kill. At the moment i play on medium populated servers (eu) and my experiences so far were great, 1 out of 10 players i meet are hostile which is not even remotely close to the kill on sight mentality we had in the mod. You mights want to stay away from the coast towns (though berezino works fine for me atm), the military areas and the main routes to these areas and be careful when you see other players. Other than that, be patient and prepare to be frustrated, a lot ;) edit: what gugolas said ;)

That reminds me of my first experience playing the mod in summer 2012, i had no idea about arma and barely seen any videos. i spawned at the coast and tried to hide in the grass to check the options menu for the controls when i heard some footsteps. i had no idea how to chat and got so nervous i could not even remember how to stand up when two players with guns stopped right before me. I just lay in the grass and all i could do was rotate and randomly press some buttons and so i waited for my first death. They dropped a pepsi and some beans and moved on. I´m so glad the standalone is now back for some interaction instead of that yolo kos we had in the last year in the mod. Despite so many people complaining about kos the standalone from my experience is much - M U C H friendlier than the mod. On the servers i play on (medium populated eu) i would say 1 of 10 players is hostile while the rest is neutral or friendly. In the last year of the mod it was the opposite.

You should actually put that into an own thread in the suggestion section, i like that idea a lot.

And I`m sure you and your friend did not complain but instantly create a new issue for that glitch in the feedback tracker because you are not playing a game but you are contributing to an alpha test.

To be honest i dont think they are rare if you know where to look ;) I have found lots of them in the front of the car wrecks, esp the ones beneath the cherno skycrapers. But i personally dont like them to be split in quarters, i dont think it encourages people to search for them instead of checking an online map. Just put the whole map in and keep them spawning in vehicles, i like that idea a lot.

I havent tried (im used to the mousewheel since the mod) but shouldnt "F" do everything which the mousewheel click does? It works with water sources and other stuff so i guess it will work with doors too? edit: damn too slow

Honor. Why is everyone such an idiot nowadays? Everyone shoots on sight and i hate it but i have to shoot on sight so i dont get shot on sight... everyone turns gamma up so i have to turn gamma up so i dont have a disadvantage. Boohoo. Just do what YOU think is rigth and if it gives you a disadtvantage then be it so.

Wait a second, are you talking about a private server in your LAN? If you are using a standard setup (LAN behind a router) it can not be possible from a technical standpoint that someone joins your server if you have not forwarded anything. Your PC has a route to your router (standardgateway) but not vice versa. This would only be possible if you have a severe security problem in your network. If you are talking about a hosted server or something else please ignore my post ;)

I dont like being put into categories. I had characters lone wolfing in the north geared to the teeth more than 14 months ago and i played on servers where you spawn with snipers and find vehicles everywhere when i know that i will only be able to play for 2 hours in the whole week. Why? Because it`s fun and i don`t give a sh*t if this is not what the game is meant to be played. Just see it as two different branches. We have the freedom to choose whatever we like at the moment and personally i think it`s a great thing. And only playing one style doesnt make anyone better in any way.

Speaking of "what will be in 10 years"... where the f*ck is my flying car? It´s past 2000 and i still have to drive on roads. Not even a hoverboard :( Future sucks

You contradict yourself within two pages of your thread. On the previous page you said "Stop crying, this is democracy.". And now you say that it should not be democratic but present some elitist thinking about a special group of people called the hardcore community who should be the only ones who are allowed to express their opinions. Sorry but you cant twist and turn things around until they fit. And i can guarantee you that if everyone had the right to vote there would NOT be as50s everywhere. Not all people are dumb. Or at least the percentage of dumb people out there is nearly the same as the percentage of dumb people in the hardcore community. Democracy evens out extremistic opinions. That`s one of the good things about it. Anyway, we could discuss forever, you have your opinion, i have mine. And if this makes one thing clear then that even the hardcore community in itself is not united when it comes to 3rd person vs 1st person.
