Super Zombie spawns after a kill, why dont the dead rise?
Ramtex replied to SP45M's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
If your into Beastiality, sure thing >_> I'm sure a ration of beef would also do the trick! -
Love fishing. I would put in the effort to get a boat up and running if I could fish off it. About the food spawn reduction, not sure that's a good idea, what happens if you in a group and there's only one can? People kill you for the can of beans you know.

I agree with the quiver idea. I would use a crossbow if it didn't take up so much dam room. But has anyone actually fired a crossbow before? I have. Did archery for years a while back. NOTHING like a gun. You have to work for it. You do what any good archer does, you spend a few shots getting your sights right and THEN you go shoot at a target. You do NOT pick up the thing and start shooting right away Also the range on a crossbow is not that good. 60m tops, anything after that and you surrender to physics, and the bolt slows right down. If you want range you'd need to introduce bows, which once again, require zeroing.

You know you can pick up empty tins and cans to throw them to attract infected away from where you want to walk. Same thing with flares. Get creative. They don't even give you food to start off with, maybe you should be asking for food and water before wepons?

I've done it too. Went to click Options, hit re-spawn instead. I lost a M14 SD, all its ammo, M9 SD, NVG, GPS and Coyote Backpack. I know your not supposed to be attached to your stuff, but I'd be alive for 14 days, ad it was such a stupid mistake.

Or from ANY other cause of death in DayZ, if you think about it.

I would like to see vehicles used more in general. Heli's tend to be a bit OP and make the map seems smaller than it is, but if you made them a epic group projects, that could work out well.

Can people please add to their server names if they have side chat and kicking at a certain ping. I just wanna join a decent server with side chat that doesn't require a ping of less than 100 -.-
-
Oh yeah, I joined that server for the first time today actually. It said I was banned. >_>

Ramtex replied to SP45M's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
They don't rise because they are not zombies, they are infected humans. Rocket already told us he isn't going to make special infected or super infected, he's going to make "stages" of infection level. -
If hes going to make more enterable buildings, this barricade idea might not such a bad one...

Players should spawn with a sniper rifle

Troll. -
Rocket stated that he doesn't want to punish banits for doing what they do. So making them visible like that would never happen. I like the idea of horses to be added, but I know for a fact it would take a while to create their animations from stratch.

[Temp. Closed] DayZ Walking Militia
Ramtex replied to Legacy (DayZ)'s topic in Clan / Group Recruitment
I would like to join, but I never get good ping and don't last on servers where you get kicked. I tried joining your (very quiet) server and I did get kicked. Oh well.. -
I think tents need abit more work before we start using them for other things. You simply cant trust a tent, least it nom on your gear.

Some feature ideas requesting feedback
Ramtex replied to Ander (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I like the idea of the radio towers, but a smart person wouldn't use them... Think about it, if your told your about to spawn inside a radio tower range, you naturally choose to spawn on the edge of it, and you naturally head in the direction of the signals. Which would lead you to the source and potentially a survivor campsite. The only thing that may be good for is keeping server hoppers off your back, but only for a very short time. I do hope you give the option for the cosmetic mods for campsites ^_^. Tents surrounded by trucks and cars just don't feel like home eh. -
Your forgetting the whole DayZ scene here.. Zombie Apocalypse. Minimal survivors. Dog-eat-dog world. You start making "safe" zones the game turns more like Fallout everyday.
-
Regenerative life source. Suppose you live long enough for it to re-fill... I dunno about you guys, but I like hunting animals. Otherwise I'd live off beans. If blood became regenerative, whats the point of animals? Balanced system.

Omgsh its like he wants us to feel pain! Back off you crazy person!

Hi! Been playing DayZ for about..3 weeks now. Must say I'm loving every bit of it. Its very rewarding to sneak into a zombie spawn region, raid the joint and sneak out without a single zombie bothering you. I just look back once I'm out of hearing range and just sign a little bit... Anyway.. Was reading rockets posts about "I value your suggestions" and I thought..HOLY SHIT I HAVE SOME! 1) I heard that they are adding generators, for lights and shiz? I'm not sure what they will be using it for, but I have some ideas. Electrified barbed wire. Seen if on a few zombie movies. I'm guessing you could hook up, 4-6 barb wire fences to one generator, zombies get close and BAM! Also maybe have heaters or a stove (camping style), for cooking meat without the 300 metre zombie magnet. 2) I'm a strong believer in karma..hence why I don't player kill on DayZ (Cept this one time at night and this guy was sneaking around me and I freaked out and shot him in the face....) I think the more player killing you do, should decrease the chance of certain loot drops that you come across. Or increase the amount of zombies that are likely to spawn in your area. Karma's a bitch. 3) NPC companions. Give me a dog. I'll happly feed it, name it, love and keep it alive even if it kills me, but by god it would be fantastic not to be alone so much. If you get attacked, he'd help, if you shoot, he'll charge, if you go prone, he drops with you, stuff like that. Who here can honestly say they DIDN'T cry when Will Smiths dog died in I Am Legend. :'( 4) Last idea for now. I wanna see some new skins. This one is a given. Your either a field agent look-a-like, a ghillie-suit ninja, or a american solider. No other options. Too bad. There needs to be less military style things, and more realistic zombie apocalypse style things. If L4D and Dead Island really did help inspire this game, take a leaf out of that book. Look at peoples jobs in life and match clothes accordingly. E.g, if you go to the hospital in a city, you may find a nurse or doctors outfit. If you go to a service station you may find a mechanic's overalls, or at a church a priests gown! Don't be afraid to abuse those stereotypes!. Those are just a few ideas I've had in my short time playing this awesome game! I'm going to bed now >_> Ciao! P.S: Sorry for any spelling/grammar errors, I'm so tired >.<

In the point of NPC's being OP, I would assume they make it quiet a difficult task to keep your friendly alive. Like say if you do get a pet dog, he'd eat and drink just like you, and need medical attention just like you. Means you gotta carry supplies for two. Its just the same as being in a group of two, cept with an AI instead of a human. Or make it so pets cant attack, only distract. There are many ways you can avoid that subject being OP.

I'll be honest though, I don't know about you, but I don't tend to stay too long in buildings when I'm in town..

What? You can choose your face? What?

Its like your computer freezing after playing a game for ages that has no auto-save. Dear God.

I just saw that Piss/Shit thread. Its getting close. BTW, wanna get married?
