Let's play Nostradamus, "hi this is rocket, unfortunately I will not be releasing the SA this year. This is due to being true to myself and not wanting to let you down...........much" "we still have a lot of things to do particularly with the dilithium matrix of the code, we underestimated capacity so 1.21 giggawatts was not enough, so I had to go back to Kiwi central for more sheep rubbing (static power) I'm told we will have enough power for the 21st Dec but I'm not sure I'll be here on that day" "keep your spirits up, I'll sort it out after i am forced to climb the Munros as Derpy Hooves is kidnapping me on the 22nd, blame him and Apache"

No, not in this game, us lonewolfs will be at extreme disadvantage when teams harness super weapons. We need less military gear not more!

There has to be more in the sea for this! Islands people maybe streams and rivers inland?

I'll bet he only went back to watch the Hobbit. It's all speculation but I don't think the game will be out "Until it's ready, no sooner, no later" And besides he better not release it in December, I'm skint now till January!

Eh? P.C. games are way cheaper than the Console version. Picture a tool like Steam, every holiday there is a massive sale up to 75% off titles, I have not come across a console version of steam with such price deductions. P.C's may need upgrading after a while but with some of the stuff on the market now there are many cheaper alternatives. Just Google a component and you'll have a variety of different prices for said component. For now the P.C. does not need MSL points, though when the next Xbox comes out they are doing away with the points system (Intergration to cash along with current OS system). Ask 2 different players on console the exchange rates of points and youll be amazed, some people are getting taxed on top of the cost of the points. For example, I have had my current P.C. for the past 5 years (It was one of the best at the time) over the years i have had only to buy a GPU that cost me £150 (X4 Console games if that) Then i pay only for cheaper games than console (Providing they are not exclusively console related) My Kid's have a console each (They will never play together) each one of them wants about 4-6 games a year (Rule of thumb is if you don't finish it you don't get a new game) that on top of peripherals (stupid motion camera's, controllers, steering wheels, fooking plastic guitars) the console world is far more expensive.

In hindsight, having a good month to play it, No Namalsk didn't get it right for me, I got bored after 2 weeks. It's a good map but not lasting. How many of you are still playing it?

Or off a cliff? Do zombie legs break after a 1 meter fall? I'd love to lure them up,the steps of the big metal sheds and push!

They do it for a laugh. And if he read your post he'd laugh some more. Don't let the pricks get you down

It's that time of year when they release those people back into the community, clearly this suggestion needs locking back up! No, what next? Guest appearance from Scorpion and Balrog?

Using a picture like that, I hope you have shares in Bupa! Bloody cat lovers!

And I suppose you want to play football with the Zeds on Christmas day? One day of the year and the little helpers come out!

Ahh, we've all been there! Enjoy the ups and the downs too.

Logical idea considering the restrictions of size. Maps maps maps, need more maps

ohhh low blow

Medic pack should be half price, and to dissuade other player types the character wears a big red cross on their chest. and you can't get rid of it!

ERM???? Have you got the right game m8?

You guys should post more home vids, They make the rest of us look like Professionals!

A few suggestions When players or anyone who logged out during combat should be repositioned on the map far away from their combat logged area. Put them in a really crap and far place. My favorite method for combat logging would be to have players profiles note / record when they combat logged (Using the current timer and possible integration of player accounts / profiles in SA) and the next time they go back and play DayZ they have to wait an hour before they can join any server. That will drastically stop players from being soft cry babies. No one would want to wait before they can play and less loggers means more decent play time. They can create another profile all they want, they wont have the kit or loot they had in their other character!

I just think most players wouldn't use it, so there would not be use for it in a Russian country. Until you suggested it i had never heard of it, so to me it would serve no purpose. Give me traps and trip wires any day of the week to protect my stuff (If i was that way inclined). That is where the fun would be for me if people were trying to rob me. I would not be trying to track down items I could replace easily enough. Most players can find out where vehicles spawn and with a lot more servers now offering Max Vehicles there's usually more vehicles than actual players! Cameras would not be needed due to the high availability of stuff.

No offense, not trying to be a twat! Loot is easy to find, it would be easier just going to a barracks. Vehicles can be destroyed, then meaning you have to loot the parts to repair. Wouldn't a key / lock mechanism be more effective? as opposed to a hunting camera? 1st rule of DayZ "Don't get attached to your gear" I started playing as a camp wrecker, I would actively search for camps and take everything and destroy all stuff, The numerous times I have taken vehicles they have never been taken back to their originating camps. Eye witness accounts are live accounts, a camera will not have as much information, for one it won't tell you where it was last seen!

A question, based on my lack of console knowledge. Can Consoles actually do the draw distances? Didn't i read somewhere they had to minimize the draw distance in order for certain ports? Perhaps a new map with less demand on Usage would benefit a console release? Or perhaps the engine modifications employed for the SA could benefit the console model? I would love to see a console release, I think it will happen anyway due to the upcoming success of the SA.

Part of the attraction for so many players was faster zeds (Tell me you were not terrified when you looked behind and they are within grabbing distance) rocket listened and gave us ideas about zombie states and longevity and due to heavy modifications to the engine more zombies on screen at one time (Planned for SA) having slower and more zeds on screen now will slow servers and cause lag making it unplayable for those with a less than beast status computer system. Add the numerous types of injuries and weight limits I'm hoping some players will get faster zombies. Slowing the zombies down will offer very much the lower threat level we have come to expect from the MOD. There is a version of Taviana where there are more zeds spawning, this has made it a hell of a lot more harder and IMO better than just being able to run around without a decent threat. I honestly don't think DayZ would benefit from slower type of Zeds it would offer a totally different game play (Are you an ex WarZ player just out of interest?)

What wrong with the traditional tried and tested methods? eyeballs? I've been hunting and camping many many times, I have never needed a glorified security camera, and one that note, what are you going to do when you have footage? won't the offending players log off? with some of your precious loot with them? Even if they do your base over will you be online to notice it? (Anyone remember the real time SMS message app someone suggested? as you were being robbed you recieved a real time message telling you it was clobbering time) By the time you had gotten the information the vehicle and loot would be well gone.

And muffins, bloody Derpy Hooves and those delicious tasting muffins. I damn you sir, I never liked them till a few month back, now Asda keeps running out. @Minamo, I never mentioned That crap game, I did read a while back about rocket and the possible introduction to weight limits, if that goes down, 2 primaries will be the least of your worries. This brought about the theory of carrying only what you need and not extra heavy stuff you don't. This would offer balance to your game play from a realistic point. You wouldn't be able to carry a lot of military grade stuff and ammo, quite heavy and encumbering. And lets not go down the realism route, that thread had opinions and not enough facts. A team / Clan would carry what was needed for the team, with a weight limit that need would be spread out between the players for maximum effect. For vehicle parts you could repair one, most come almost workable as it is bar a few damaged parts, you could use it as a mule to carry other stuff you collect, in order to stow it till you get back to your base. Even heavy items like engine blocks could only be taken via the help of another player or vehicle. I use a vehicle and use it to carry stuff, primarily for vehicle parts as they use up more slots than most other items (Never hurts to have spares) If there is an insistence of 2 primary weapons then a timed event should be introduced when switching between weapons in your pack. A Big 50 cal rifle in a bag will need assembly (as mentioned before) and disassembly before use (Most people couldn't carry 1 let alone another weapon) most weapons don't fit into a large pack without protrusions or parts sticking out. so if you insist on carrying a secondary weapon in a bag, break it down? As it is DayZ is a game, and i can understand this. As a game it has to have attainable goals and playability without becoming too restrictive or players would not play it. The simple fact is DayZ is Based on a simulator, now I understand simulators simulate, They are not simulating all you can carry as all these items would have an impact on your movement. I can agree to disagree! :P

Diaries! I have just been playing Deadlight and the diaries add so much to the game. Finding bits and pieces all over the place, makes you want to finish the diary and read it among the Zombie apocalypse.
