Just give us a Nile esque map maker, click place an drop, create events, save and play! Yeah it will flood the web full of crap maps, but there will be some good ones! I could spend my life making dream maps! Complex gamer unfriendly maps, the kind that offer a challenge I do believe randomly generated maps will have items everywhere, and how you going to match the contours of the landscape? Maps all flat are good and proper but a lot of terrains and trees will break it up. And large maps will become frustrating trying to find limited resources.

I've noticed some privat servers have custom debugs, have all the vital info without the huge distraction box in the corner!

Wait for it, sod the SA!!! That was sarcasm based on the map people's decision, there loss really. It will be the last thing on many players minds if they don't get it out faster, SA will be everyone's poison for a while!

Everyone should know about the wasteland mod! It's a mood setter

It's a good idea, however I must confess a purpose made mod for this with weapon attachments would be better, maybey a futuristic mod! I'd pay to play that, like Interstate 76 (anyone remember that?) In dayz it would be missing the point! A race in a survival / zombie apocalypse? You see my point? I'm sure there are other mods where this would be more appealing! It would be worth a laugh though!

No, no, I never meant that! Fact is its too late to have any suggestions for the SA. I just had a few map related points. I think there are limitations to size with the mod due to requirement needs. You can't add much more to chernaurus without performance issues.

I'd rather give rocket my money, not steam. But then again Steam have some wicked sales, I only hope they don't sell it in a sale for lower than I paid for it!!! I always prefer games I can touch, but steam does allow you, to own the games everywhere you are, without the scratches! Either way it will be a good way of purchasing it ( providing you have the net)

My biggest fear for DayZ is not hackers, not dogs, and no not even PVP. It's boredom of the playing area, we know once released the SA will take ages to get things right, issue finding and testing etc. what I would like is more maps to play on or a considerably larger playing field. It may be impossible as far as size is concerned by I'll bet everyone who plays the game will be bored of it on e they know the knowledge just like they did with the mod. In order to keep it fresh, let's have more maps to play on from day 1.

Buy it now, don't have all this SA is the end all be all talk. When the SA comes out yes it will be history in the making. But remember the mod has a big community behind it and will have for a long time to come. The SA is good and all but it won't have all the maps and extra stuff! If rocket and co hand it over to the community there will be some changes made, some of this will be additional mods attached and the experimental aspects along with it! Yes hackers will make it hard work, but look at what happened once people were allowed to host it! Private passworded servers, hack detection and prevention. They have made the game worth playing again and many of us here have benefitted from it. In short there will be more to come from the mod I will hope, you can't have enough of a good thing. And there is a lot more to Arma2 than DAYZ! There's a mod for everything and I'm expecting a lot of mix and matching going on! You will want it sooner or later because when something good comes out for the mod that improves it, most will only have SA and won't be able to experience it. Go on, it's Christmas, treat yourself!

1, A single player mode to the game. 2, A map creator / editor. This is mainly for reason 1, so a creator can play and share their creation. 3, A new forum for the SA, this is dayz mod.com

Ok, this is going to sound extremely ignorant, however have you looked at filters? Perhaps a screen overlay filter. Imagine a pair of 3d glasses, each eye has a different colour, could you not place a coloured filter over the game area to change the colour to suit you? I ain't talking sweet wrapper cello taped to the screen, more away from monitor, failing that, http://www.toledo-bend.com/colorblind/shareware.asp http://www.ryobi-sol.co.jp/visolve/en/

It won't be out this year!

Have you tried http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?73241-ArmA-II-amp-OA-Classnames-No-questions-no-discussion-here! http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=13109 Or any other arma2 dedicated place?

Search is your friend, http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/108662-more-focus-on-zeds/page__hl__threat http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/108364-for-the-standalone-please-make-the-zombies-a-challenge/page__hl__threat#entry1022693 The devs are aware!

Are there no admin? You could ask for reset! This happened to me, lucky for me a scripter was in the server and was teleporting players all over, he did the same with me and it solved my pain. Though I do frown upon such measures!

There is a mod for that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vklOq6KFQy4 Has most of the moves you describe and should be put into the SA to vary the options and actions.

O.K. the DayZ forum abuse is legendary, I know because I give it regular away. I do however give new posters the benefit of the doubt, perhaps you should too considering most of you haven't been here 2 minutes! I have been asking for a while about a SA single player campaign, In fact, if OP looked up and found the search bar he / she could have found many post similar to this, with ideas similar and also some more depth. Truth is we are at the mercy of the vision of Rocket, it's his idea and I believe it was intended as a Multi player experience and not a single player one. Shame really as I would like the choice of playing online and offline, as would many. There are older builds which allow you to play single player and i dare say once SA comes out the mod will have a single player version also released. To me it is just a matter of time for a release, but a base model will be fine, no additions need be put in for me.

Something to equal the Dimak death touch, bone breaking punch the zombies have? I just hope the animation and timing are good enough in the SA, the hatchet action is a but crap allowing the zeds to hit you while your attempting. Besides have you tried sneaking up behind a zed in a town full of them? With the addition of more zeds (Due to performance increase of SA) last thing you will want to do is silently hit one as he will probably be accompanied by a posse of mates.

report the find to a MOD. even the playing field, you will get little fun from this scenario, the best part of DayZ is finding the stuff the real way! Man alone in the world, roaming all over for loot in order to survive, Feeling the awe of every encounter with out a safe base to fall back on.

Is there a sufficient punishment towards those who do it? Or is it just another useless game feature that will be removed in exchange for something a but more harsh later on (Remember the balance has not been found yet) I have not seen any increase in CL, Could this just be native to the server your playing on?

I expect I will be traipsing the length of the map, looking for new and shiny stuff! Then continuing my taxi and medical services!

So, when are you releasing it Mr Sir rocket?

There's a thread for the disease idea, don't worry about it, there will be more to the SA than what you mention. Concentrating on one aspect is silly. Think of the bigger picture, you will enjoy it more

Aww, I thought by the title you were gonna go into the great outdoors and camp under the stars all survival like, I was gonna offer my services by tagging along! I need a good camping trip under the stars, getting outta my head! Then I read your gonna play a game for the week! What a waste of a holiday, I've done what your proposing but with a healthier diet, you'll get sick of it in 2 days, then you'll miss out on all the things you dream of when working, mates, eating out, bit of traveling etc. Ps frank and beans are just beans with mini sausages in, find em everywhere!
