NVG glasses in 1.7.5.1 [warning: spoiler]
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to _Anubis_ (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Night time play is stupid, too dark, not realistic, and using all the illumination available is justdrawing a big target on your back. If it was lighter and the moon was brighter woul dbe different but as it is, it is not too good at the moment. the only time i have had fun on a night server is when I am in a large group -
DayZ Standalone and Helicopters
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to sam3d's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
After SA comes out and people can host it on their own private servers, Players will no doubt join servers with 100 vehicle servers and probably have 10 choppers on also (Amongst other aircraft) the harder the learning curve the better. -

The greatest DayZ Key protector of all time. [And more.]
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to Rage VG's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
aww I have no beans left to give today, the "Just seen rocket" thread took them all again. Nice one. -
NO. You might start with asking permission for this.

Sledge: If I was in an actual survivor in an Apocalypse, I would have a little sledge I could pull behind me for carrying supplies with. this would affect my movement some what if a weight mechanic was added to it, but allow me to gather supplies more efficiently. I would leave it hidden somewhere when I make a search into towns. I would go back to it and carry on my journey or to my "home" I f I was "deaded" It would be a great find for those who come across it. Weapon handleling would be affected due to pulling it around, but a quick drop option woul dallow me to arm myself and be ready for possible contacts. A harness would allow free weapon movement. As a lone wolf I could move about freely with all I need for survival, as a team member I could assist in carrying injured team mates to safety. I could even use it as a trap in order to gain supplies if i was that way inclined. Poncho: Mentioned before many times but.... As I had a Sledge I would need cover for it and also a makeshift shelter for myself when weather effects take hold, I may not have sufficient clothing for all weather and would allow me to be warm, hidden and safe. It could offer me protection from other players via camoflauge in some instances. being so versatile it would be light weight and an essential item. Any thoughts...............

New spawn idea (best one?)
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to HugoDayZ (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I made a suggestion of when your character dies, Your new spawn, spawns on another map. I know it is a bit silly, especially for all those who like a certain map. But imagine your a survivor and you're gonna not give a crap, survival is what you must do where ever you are. this would add to the confusion, starting on a map you are familiar with but the shock of not knowing where you will respawn upon death. With all the providers out there you could easily just pick another map to play on if the idea is not for you. (Well eventually for the SA) Just an Idea. -
NVG glasses in 1.7.5.1 [warning: spoiler]
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to _Anubis_ (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Look harder, It took me 3 month to find some N.V.G's, I was under the impression DayZ made you search for loot. It is an advantage but if you don't look, you won't find. Players are going to be so let down in the SA when they find a pair with a bullet through them, requiring repair -
stuck at "waiting for character to create"
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to moonrise21's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
I would dl DayZ Commander and update everything, I had similar issues and installed D.C. never happened again. Sorry I cannot comment on Rmod. If in doubt, Check install notes, perhaps an update has whacked it -
New spawn idea (best one?)
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to HugoDayZ (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
there are scripts for spawning unconcious units in Arma 2, implimenting this for player starts would be easy enough (Im no expert) But would you really want to start a game where you are? It is bad enough on certain servers when you spawn on the beach, campers can be everywhere aggro'ing players. Imagination wins each time. I loved the suggestion of waking up in a hospital bed, gives a great nod to the first 28 days film. you would not know anything nor how you got there. Only problem is the timing, how long has the infection been going on for? -

Server with hidden bases
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to [email protected]'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Ask them to come on and promote it, then blow up their bases and see what happens. they will soon regret it being advertised. I did this with a server i found enjoyable, I mentioned it and before you knew it loads of players were on it, destroying the hell out of it, the admin banned me because i brought them more members. All I am saying is be careful what you tell people, there are some buggers out there. -
Is there not a DayZ mod where you can handcuff players?

New spawn idea (best one?)
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to HugoDayZ (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
that is what imagination is for, You wash up on shore, wake up, wonder where and what the hell your doing here. Your first instinct is to go into a built up area, where you witness the people who turn out to be psychotic infected individuals out to harm you. Fight or flight? your story, your way of surviving. Beach spawns make sense, unless you want to program a crashed flight going down over Chernarus, this would be plausible too. any method of starting in the periphery of the map would work. the only let down is after the first time you spawn in, you know the score where as your character should not. -
What is the problem of Dayz?
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to ShokeR (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Are we talking about the Mod? the main thing letting it down is the engine limitations, everything else is external. -
DayZ Standalone and Helicopters
Michaelvoodoo25 replied to sam3d's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I hope it is as hard as toh, would make for some skilled players and would be highly valued players. I would like to see this very much but if you want to learn to fly go try toh worth it and a sense of achievement also when you learn. Make heli flight 1st person only also for obvious reasons. -
Barter / trade, I would personally be a hunter and fisherman. No-one would question Horsemeat again.
