    FULL Medical / First aid

    SO MUCH MEDS, SO LITTLE SPACE! Just a little over the top in realism IMO.
  2. Quaby

    Suggestion against DCers

    It has been said before, but the idea it self is good. I don't care about dying, so I prefer to just fight it out. Now the people I clip with my gun will feel PAIN! ;)

    Minor grievances (aka little things)

    .............. READ THE "BEFORE YOU POST". It explicitly says not to do this(making a huge list), and making it too realistic would just make it way too complicated. Its a goddamn zombie apocalypse, realism kinda went out the window.
  4. ^Sweet, thanks! So it IS a run-of-the-mill less good guns thread.
  5. You cannot fully enjoy thing game until you stop caring about dying. I had a blast in cherno inside a building with five dead bodies in it. A few minutes later I joined them. I didn't go to the forums and cry, I said, "WOW! THAT WAS CRAZY AWESOME!" You are going to die very often in this game, so get used to it ;)
  6. This thread is a PSA for newer forum users who are unfamiliar with the little quirks of the dayz forums. If you do everything in my signature you will avoid most of the pitfalls, and coupled with this thread, your posts will stay original and meaningful! Do not start topics about the following(there are others, but these are big ones IMO): 1. PvP/PvE-Just search the topic you want to read about and comment on, since this is probably one of the most discussed aspects of the game. 2. Respawn confirmation-It is amazing how many people just go to the forums immediately after accidentally respawning to ask for this. It has already been asked for, you may as well just not waste your time. 3. AS50 and M107 nerfs-This may come under PvP, but these particular threads are very common. 4. Bug complaints-There is a bug report part of the forum, use it! 5. Bandits-It does come under PvP, but these are exceptionally redundant. Basic things to do when making topics 1-Do a quick search before you post something, nothing too heavy. Just type in your idea and look for related threads. 2-Do not post suggestions in a list format. One or two ideas, not ten. It is really hard to give detailed feedback on ten ideas in one post without writing an essay, and most people don't want to write an essay. When replying 1. Give good, related feedback. Try to stay constructive and on-topic. 2. If you disagree, avoid insulting the person. "THATS SO DUMB YOU STUPID FAT FUCK! GO PLAY COD!"<-----No "I disagree with this because(insert respectfully stated reason)"<-----Good I am sure there are so many other things I left out, but this is just a basic guide. This is just a part of my crusade to make the dayz forums an internet utopia of amazing ideas and astute feedback. Maybe it can be a sticky? If it doesn't, at least some people will read it....

    How to use the forums properly

    Meh, I am satisfied. Can't say I didn't try. Also, I got a bit bored of just reading the same thing over and over and couldn't think of a good idea at the time.
  8. WAAAAAY to much shit in one post dude.
  9. If rocket read every redundant pvp thread his head would explode. I got one of my suggestions posted on by one of the dayz staff and I shit my pants with joy; try to set some more reasonable goals. Also, most people post fully understanding the chance of getting special attention is pretty much nil. "If you aren't rocket, don't post on this" What the fuck dude, this is a forum. Send him a goddamn email. I would reply with actual feedback but then I would have to read an unoriginal pvp post, and I just aint up to it. Whatever you are saying, it has been said. And the chances are people trolled on the people who posted it 2 days ago too. If you REALLY want them to pay attention, use search and write an original, thought out suggestion. Mine was about a lootable wal-mart-esque store.
  10. This is not a survival mod. It isn't man vs wild, the danger aspect isn't in environmental factors, it is the well-armed man on the top of the hill whose intentions are unknown. The zombies are an environmental factor, and rocket said so himself that they would not constitute the primary threat. I didn't want to add any of these since i think the difficulty is at a good spot in the environment. The players are downright dangerous, and the environment modifies your decisions in regards to players. Will I shoot with my loud gun with all the zombies around?
  11. He ended the argument respectfully and you called him a retard. Maturity levels revealed. "Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics; even if you win, you're still retarded."
  12. Once again, read the "before you post" on the main page. My main beef with this-Ataxia? You don't get ataxia from an infected wound, you get it from a stroke or other form of brain related injury. Also, excessively realistic medial systems would be so difficult to implement it would basically make this mod a medical sim.
  13. The food and drink is okay;at the activity level of the survivors, they will need lots of food and water. Try and run twelve kilometers at a sprint cross-country with forty pounds of gear on a can of beans and a coke can. It ain't pleasant ;)

    Broken leg? Splint it up!

    I would prefer something like crutches. Broken legs aren't like sprained ankles, you can't just tough it out if it is somewhat severe.
  15. This mod is already unrealistic, it has zombies. It is inherently unrealistic. People's measure health is not "blood" but a mix of many different factors. It isn't like proper medical procedure for a bullet wound is just giving them a transfusion. it is way more complicated, and you can't make it realistic without making it a medical sim.

    My DayZ Improvement Suggestions

    Dude, follow my signature, and try not to do this again. Short and sweet, I can't possibly give you good feedback on each one without writing a goddamn essay, and I don't want to write a goddamn essay. Why do I constantly tell people to clean up forum formats instead of giving feedback? Because eventually, if we all try hard enough, people will stop doing stupid shit and we will reach forum utopia. Original, well-formatted suggestions.
  17. I never heard about those. Are those on the profile screen? I saw them but I thought they didn't do anything
  18. It's a goddamn zombie apocalypse. It is inherently unrealistic. A few liberties should be allowed for gameplay, and nametags can be good for reducing accidental killing of friends. Either the tags, or maybe add a way to put on a purple ribbon or something to ID urself to ur group
  19. Yeah, I am for wear and tear, but type your suggestion into word before you post it and get is spell-checked. I am somewhat OCD and this drives me crazy ;)

    Bandits win

    If the server has fewer than 30 people, you shouldn't have a problem with getting spawn-killed. They can't cover every inch of ground on the beach, and some of the smaller cities/larger towns have okay loot and very few banditos. I do agree with providing more things to do in endgame(i made a gunsmithing post to provide a way to get weapons that is difficult and rewarding) but I really don't find it enjoyable to kill newbies, and neither do people I play with. I just think it's over exaggerated.
  21. Quaby

    Suggestion: Hard-coded Factions

    Yeah, if you want this just play regular arma, since this would just make it arma with some zombies.
  22. Quaby

    200k players in the last 24 hours!

    When someone plays the standalone game, all in its bug-free glory, I can say I trudged through it while doors were still lethal ;)
  23. Quaby

    More than one character.

    It would be nice to have this for shared computers. My brother uses a desktop for this game so i have to use a shitty laptop ;)
  24. I always play on US servers and in all the time I have played I have never encountered a single hacker. Not even a hacked box.
  25. Quaby

    Bandits win

    I just got done running through the NW airfield like a retard an was not shot since nobody was there. Really isn't a big deal if you stay off the crowded servers
