You're a horrible person then and I hope someone shoots you back. It'll be funny to see how a 14 year old reacts to having a bullet in his guts.

Eh... One good experience doesn't prove anything about a particular region of the map.

http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=search&fromMainBar=1 It's called search. Use it.

:facepalm: Lol, did I ever say that? You don't have to trust people to handle them in a way that reduces violence. Having a sniper in the hills in intelligent and tactical. Turning your back on a stranger with a gun is exactly the opposite, genius. Besides, making PvP more profitable will only result in a shitty, trollish community that is hyper PvP centered when really that's only one part of this game. I can find tons of gear without firing a shot. Yeah, that looks like a guy who trusts everyone he meets. :rolleyes:

- I can drag items from my inventory to my hand, but not from the vicinity. - "Take into hands" option seems to have disappeared since the last update. - You can't drop anything onto the ground from your hands. I know rocket said he wanted to do throwing objects in a way that would let you throw any item, but I would like to be able to drop things from my hands through the UI as well. - Certain items that seem logical to combine, such as painkillers, charcoal tablets, vitamins, and antibiotics, can't be consolidated. Also I haven't tested if it's possible, but combining water from different bottles should also be possible. This would also provide another way of accidentally spreading infection. - Taking one item into your hands while another item is equipped is very buggy. Often times it will unequip the first item, but fails to equip the one you dragged into the box. - When eating food, each eat action un-equips the food item. The item should remain in your hand so you can continue to eat from it, instead of having to open your gear menu 4 times to consume a whole can of pasta. Same for water. - Water purification tablets are not multiple use, even though they seem to have a percentage like other consumables. - I would like to be able to drink water while walking or jogging. I can't think of any others at the moment.

Just have him eat a good meal and hydrate. Just like in real life.

Explore? Mosins spawn in lots of residential areas, but be aware that loot only spawns at the server reset. So if people have looted an area already it's not going to have much.

Again, at night, you can spot a pretty good muzzle flash. However during the day time they're basically invisible as the sun sun is out and a typical muzzle flash happens so instantaneously that your eye often won't even detect it. Also flash hiders and suppressors would reduce this flash to basically nothing.

Eh, I need the tactical vest for carrying space. And I don't like to wear highly visible colors. Call me crazy, but that seems like a good way to get spotted.

There was an interesting idea proposed a while ago... Basically third person would not render any player or zombie which isn't actually in your line of sight. So periscoping over and around walls with third person wouldn't even be possible. Also moving the third person camera tighter on to the player could help as well.

Awesome, thanks. I've been wanting that sucker.

That's exactly the solution Dean proposed. I agree 30 seconds is too low, but the concept itself seems pretty sound.

This is gold.

"Because black guys are hard asses, and I wish I was one in real life."

AAADRIIIIIAAAAANNN!!!

I like that containers give you a little extra space. It makes them valuable.

Yes. It means you're fed, hydrated, and not sick. Also there's a "healing" notification that tells you when your blood levels are rising, which has been fixed. Eating and drinking until you are full will heal you. Cleaning your wounds with alcohol works properly now as well.

Well, Dean was talking about his thoughts on a solution in the livestream that went out right before release so, I'm assuming they know about this. He also said combat logging would be addressed but they weren't going to have any systems in the alpha right away.

You can read a book while you are unconscious. That's one useful thing about them. I think we should also keep in mind that some assets may be left over from Arma 2 and may not ever make it into the final game. Hopefully tanks won't be implemented.

It would be cool if you could find a ceramic or metal plate and insert that into a tactical vest, occupying two slots but providing ballistic protection.

^ This.

Have you tried looking at the bug tracker, which is specifically designed for reporting issues? The team is already aware of the problem, Dean has already confirmed they will be addressing it, so stop wasting your breath. We all know - server hopping happens. You aren't the first person to point this out.

You mean you've been testing the alpha. Big difference. Hopping will be fixed. Can we stop getting a new thread posted about it every five minutes? And no, loot has nothing to do with server hopping. Changing the loot system won't address combat logging OR ghosting. The best way to deal with a problem is at it's source, not by accommodating weak players who don't have the basic common sense to find gear. It's everywhere.

You should have "axed" him a question, instead.
