I dont understand why there is no AUTO RUN KEY!!!
byrgesen replied to Bohannan (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
Would not mind an autorun key, but in my oppinion it should have some kind of consequense, over pressing the run key. Perhaps you run slightly slower, when auto running, simply because its easier and we really should not be encouraging people to do it tbh. I can see people dont want to press the key for 5-10 km, but hey, nobody but you, are forcing yourself to run that far tbh. Slow down, enjoy the game and the scenary of Chernarus :) Give us an auto-run key, but change the pace, to a slow jogging, compared to actually pressing the key your self. I really want some kind of consequense, also because you are a starved and thirsty survivor, in an evil apocalypse, so the chances of you being able to run 5-10 km at full speed, are next to none tbh. Most people in the world cant even do it right now, how are they suppose to do it without food and water :) I say this because i simply dont run anywhere in the game lol, im sneaking like a mofo, everywhere, and will only run when im being hunted or shot at. Just the other day it took me over an hour to pass through Vybor, and i like doing this tbh, makes me feel alot more safe and in control of the situation. -
Theres no way yet, thats why people jump off big buildings and stuff :) Shoot your friends, chop him with an axe or leave him to starve to death, is the only options atm. EDIT: Forget the last part, you arent near each other -_- my bad.

Suggestion for future patches (not about items or features, plz read)
byrgesen replied to Wernsley (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Some things can be left out of the changelog, no doubt, but not major things like alot of new content or big new features, in my oppinion. How are we suppose to test it, if we dont know what to test :) But you will surely get stuff in the game, which isnt in the changelog, simply because nobody can be arsed to write every little thing down, every single time, we have seen it with tons of other games. Please do tell us the important stuff though, so we know what has been fixed/tweaked and should be tested again. EDIT: Ohh and no NDA please, it will only make more people interested in getting the info, just play it casually and most people wont even see most of the stuff :) -
So you want him to prepare his 14 year old child, for a day at work where his co workers cuff him and force feed him rotten fruit? :D Jokes aside i understand what you mean, but are we really gonna expose our children to everything in the world as early as possible? They will experience life, no doubt about it, but does it have to be when you are very young? Cant parent teach some of theese things, instead of him having to learn everything on his own?
-
BUT, it has to be stuff you would be there in a ex-soviet state, in the mid to late 90's aswell. As far as i see it, it limits the options abit right there, simply to fit the story and lore of DayZ. This is the reason you will see alot of russian/old soviet weapons in the game later on :)
-
You might see it this way mate, but they are there for a reason, to try and guide people and help them. Its nothing but a guideline, use it if you want or dont, but its there for a reason tbh. And i never said "rely on it", i stated it was there and used another users comment, to point out why its there :) And i have to say, just because you turned out to be a pacifist, does not mean the other 7 billion people on this planet will? :) I am in the same boat as you, never hit anyone, unless it was self defense, but are everybody like this? hell no hehe.
-
You do not need to have a "serious mental issue" to be affected by stuff like this mate. And please dont use the definition "normal person" theres no such thing lol, we are all different individuals and we all act/react in different ways to everything. :) Again, i dont believe this is a game for a 14 year old, no matter the "mental condition" of the child, coz thats the thing, 14 is still a child.

Friendly reminder. DO NOT COMPARE BI TO EA OR PEOPLE WILL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF MATE!!!!!

Yes for animals, if you shine a light on them ofc, especially mamals (which is most likely the only type of animal we will get) No for Z's, humans do not have the tapetum lucidum layer in the eyes, necessary for it to glow. Im having trouble seeing how a mutation can cause a brand new layer of tissue to form in the eyes of humans, when we have never had any kind of genes, to make this possible in the first place :) The only thing we should see, could be "red-eye-effect" from taking pictures, with a polaroid camera for example (i already suggested this hehe) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapetum_lucidum
-
This is the frist thing you see in the trailer for DayZ So i would say no, its not suited for a 14 year old tbh. And its online ONLY, so he has to interact with other people throughout the game. This is exactly why its 18+

Bought DayZ SA today. This is my opinion after 10 hours.
byrgesen replied to KRIMSON SCORN's topic in New Player Discussion
When you run alone and yell "FRIENDLY" 99% of everybody you encounter are gonna think you are a teenage troll, looking to shoot them in the neck. Theres no trust in a game, where its so easy to fuck with other people :) The only way to change this, is to the change the mentality of the player behind the screen, which is impossible tbh. A good place for you to start, would be to find a group of people on the forums here, and group up with them, and all of a sudden you are gonna enjoy DayZ so much more, coz lets face it, its not really that awsome running alone atm :) -
This is the way it should work tbh. You should not be able to improve the quality of a weapon by simply cleaning it, with a small kit, outdoors in Chernarus ;) Start cleaning it from the beginning and it should take alot longer before it starts to break down though, spot on Mos1ey. Although it should still break ofc, just take longer time.

It took about 5 hours before i recieved my confirmation Email from the bug tracker, when making an account, so i feel like asking how long you have waited? Sometimes it will not be instantaneous.

Isnt that Miley Cyrus?? EDIT: I actually believe it to be her, look at this guys, the resemblance is stunning!!!

zeds go through walls and floors without using stairs
byrgesen replied to Smokey420 (DayZ)'s topic in Troubleshooting
Wong place to post this, use the bug tracker, and upvote the already existing bug reported there, on the issue mate. -
And its actually against the rules to ban/kick people for doing PVP lol. The server should get reported and blacklisted.... http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/158966-dayz-standalone-server-hosting-rules-server-reporting/

Just opened a can of bean soup w/knife in RL
byrgesen replied to Wiggin Miller's topic in General Discussion
Go run for 5 km with 10kg of gear on your back and try to open a can of beans, standing up with nothing but an axe or bayonet, and tell us how that went :D -
Join a unpoplated server and do your testing, end of problem :D But honestly 160 hours in a game, thats not even a game yet, is crazy. Hope you dont get bored of the game before its actually released lol, which is 1.5-2 years from now :)
-
You obviously didnt read the rest of what i wrote and the other people wrote mate, but it doesnt matte :) Im to tired to argue atm hehe. I think the "fanboys" (my self included obviously) are getting abit tired of listening to the same "crap" over and over again, when theres clear evidence that this game is not ment to be played yet :) And im confident the devs know about everything you wrote there, and possibly the other 100's of thigns aswell, they have a roadmap, so things will be dealt with when its time for it. But i have to agree, the "internet generation" feels like they are entitled to such things because they payed for something, its becoming extremly common to complain about a game, because its not the way you want it to be, instead of trying to give feedback which could improve it :)

My play style isnt there lol. I play "Sneaky Bush Lurker". Can sit in a bush for hours just watching people and eating and drinking, i move SUPER slow all the time, sneak everywhere, heck it took me almost an hour to go through Vybor yesterday lol. I never engange people i meet, i might talk to them, but only if im in a "safe" place. I only play 1st, have never used 3rd in any of the Arma games either, hate it hehe. The only time i EVER run, is when im being followed/hunted, btw thats my IRL philosophy aswell rofl. So if you see someone walking around Chernarus, its most likely me lol. This has kept my char alive since the beginning, have not died one single time yet, only got a new spawn, because of the DB wipes and such :)
-
Give it time mate, right now its just an Empty Shell of the game it will become, heck beta isnt till late 2014 (if we are lucky) so a million things are gonna happen in that timeframe :) Its not worth playing atm, purely for testing purposes, as the warning littered all over the place states hehe. Even Rocket said it himself, but people seem to still spend 100's of hours in the "game" without realizing its not a game yet actually :)
-
I to, am exited about the features the devs are trying to make, to combat this issue :) But we cant do anything other then wait atm hehe And would like to add, i always run around with an axe, been "playing" for 17 hours or so (trying not to overplay so i get bored, like with the mod) and ive yet to be killed by anyone. Ive ran into about 10 people in this time and not one of them have tryed to kill me :)
-
Well perhaps i need to be better at seeing other peoples arguments, thats true :) But like you said, i stand by my point in this matter. We can talk all we want about the current state of the game and if it fits an MMO or not, but tbh it doesnt really matter, because it so far from the end product, it will change dramaticly over the next 1-2 years :) Just the fact thet they "promised" we wont see beta untill late 2014 (earliest) is a good indicator that the current state of the game is not really important in this matter. Its the end goal we should focus on when trying to place it in any kind of game genre hehe. Although we cannot be entirely sure of the actual end product :) Exactly like we can talk over and over about why they went with the RV engine, but thats not gonna chance the facts :)
-
I am talking about the end goal here mate. The end goal is to get rid of server restart all together :) Its been confirmed. The end goal is to get more people on the servers, its been confirmed. As Monkfish says. And no, im basing all of this on definitions, found around the web, of what an MMO is, and i bet so where the devs when they started marketing it as an MMO :) But fine, i will shut up and leave you guys to it, it is an MMO and it will always be an MMO tbh :)
