Howser (DayZ)

For being and old DayZ gamer i´ve been contribution with ideas and help to dayzwiki. But there a problem about the blood-bag system, you need to be two. After the script kiddies, cheaters the game went so bad in the RP post acocapylse world. So my idea is to work around a nice system of blood-bag, make them rare och harder to get. Once you get it you can use it on yourself, thats really close to reality. This still will give a higher procentage for good guys to get help and minimalize the risk to get killed. Even if you get shoot at you can still run away. But once you use a blood-bag it goes empty, to fill it you have to get another guy to fill it with his blood. Still the close interactions is aviable. Sure it should be a penelty for transfusion blood like that, what that would be is up to the community or dev.

Hows this gonna effect the community and the dayz staff? Example patches will be delayed, work will go slower on major updates, causing preparation against hackers. Edit: Dont know if my thread disapeard cause of the rollback or not-worthy, it was about missions in the suggestion section.

Just put in melee weapons with the durability. In reality i think you can hit 2-3 times with a shovel before its broken, a couple of more hits with the baseball bat. Alumminum would get of a sound that alert others but can do more hits then ordinary bat. Crowbar same sound but lower hits. Machete brute force high durabilty, but this could just keep to the rarest item to find. Still you cant afford to just go in and melee fight zombie because your force to stand up and your giving yourself away equal other zombies will detect you. And by the gameplay you dont stand still and shoot 4-5 zombies that is hitting you. Ofc you can do this with the melee weapon but at what coast? Knife would be a good example of silent killer in crouch mode, durabilty could be questionable but the fact is, i have never been able to sneak up to a zombie with out being detected. (and thers a psychical test on utube of a couple guys testing diffrent melee weapons and the durabilty of them on similar human heads, i think they came to the conclusion that a spiked baseball bat would last for 5-7 hits before it broke, but after every hit u bend the spikes making it useless, even more you lose the durability of the weapon with spikes, so it was better to use an non modified baseball bat)

It should be around 330 zombies, instead it was 300 rolled back, 1 murder and 3 bandits. Would have been more if i didnt spawn at the coast

Happend for me two times, logged out on secured locations so i feel safe when i log in again. Second time i died, first a survivor came running at me with 10 zombies behind. Killed them all, then a bandit came and killed me and the guy i saved. This wouldnt happend if i was on my location. Trolled by the game :(

Poor tracy :(

Basic tools M14 "AIN" ACOG Scope DMR mags. Good Close/Range Combat, very loud. G17 M1911 Realy want to trade the M14 against an FN FAL ANPV S4 or an M16A2 ACOG

There is many ways to work around this to get loot, it just seems that people is lacking the skills to figure it out, post on forum and complain on how bad you actually are at this game. Cant wait until i get in the game, i am in the middle of a town.

And what could possibly a better AI do? They still cant run uphill or inside houses cause of arma 2 engine. Its enough that the AI can hit true walls and move also. Son just get skills is a zombie survival game

Did u know u can sneak up to a Z and kill it with a knife (If melee combat was possible). Thers shitloads of tin cans, wisky bottles that u can use to throw. You start with a flare, the fizzle noise will alert the Z. And im not sure if Z use vision, cause i and my friends have encounter zombies 1m one even walked "over" my friend when they where proneing.

Spawn in the residence in cherno on the highest floor in the room where it was pitch black. I was there looking for a tent, when i suddenly heard footsteeps from the stairs. Im cornerd and soon dead. The panic in me was outragesly high. So i camped and leaned out, holding my M16A1 at steady aim on the doorframe. Could barely see the moonlight reflecting on the wall. These guys had clearly heard something, cause there movement was silent realy silent now. Suddenly there was a small out of place shadow in the reflection of the moonlight. Almost got a stroke when i heard the M16A1 go off. *BRAAAAAAP* XXXX was killed A whole clip was released into the darkness. I was alive. Moved silently to the dead body to look at the loot he had. When i suddenly heard another footstep. I was like whata hell, he had a friend. Awh shit this guy is camping me now. Hes blocking my escape. I was going all in on this. Cause i knew this guy was scared as hell like i was, and was probably shitting hes pants. So i pushed C and rushed true the corridor, and i saw a glinch of a guy aim into the corridor. Pulled up my weapon walked up and blasted a magazine will i was straffing true the door. Out of ammo, took out my pistol and straffed in with a lean and started to fire off, it was a mexican stand off at this point. He got a hit on me that grayed me out and another hit. Shit im dead when the second hit came, the enemy falled to the ground and i was alive with less then 3000 blood, and was bleeding badly, but i survived. I cant imagine their situation in that moment.

You should equip your primary weapon then dubble tap ctrl to hold it down and climb up. If you move with a pistol when you get up tap X to get in crouch mode

Did someone mention loot despawning? Ran into a shed where it was a jerry tank, 20 m away i had my car. Dropped some items in it, ran back to jerry can and it was gone. FML!

Blergh, I read this after I was posting about this same type of suggestion, great minds think alike, I guess. I support nonetheless. +1

Agree with Ubersoldat. 3 person is a cheat in pvp aspects. If you are two players, one can get up in a tower lay down go 3rd and scout with out being killed. The other player can simply flank him. This would work as easy in first person, cause you will risk your life to scout him.
