    Backpack storage

    Great Idea but I think the conversation, while very interesting might need steering back towards the actual topic at hand...
  3. I like all of the ideas except these, zombies will already chase vehicles so I'm not sure I see the point there and I don't see zombies chasing a piece of mean you throw like dogs. Also if we are staying with the true Zombie Genre then they don't care about dead meat so maybe a shelf life of a day or something? I like the idea as I said but if the humanity counter is still in effect it should really cost you. Also maybe cover your hands in gore until you washed them at a water source or something. Needs more thought I'd say but defo has merit

    I like it man, I'm thinking of making a really realistic woodsman post at some stage. If your up for a brain storming session PM me up.
  5. Picture this, your caught out in the rain, its getting really heavy, your temperature is dropping and you have no heat pack. So, you head to the nearest town or village and as your about to head into a building you look at the floor of the entrance and you see "DUN DUN DUN!!!" Wet Foot Prints... Someone else, is in the building... "Queue Dramatic close-up" :o And to my mind that's just one possibility. It would be easy to code I'd say once the stand alone has its feet under itself. :thumbsup:
  6. I meant a pot trap, the same as fishermen use to trap lobster and shrimp etc. I kind of picture it as something you could find by coastal industrial buildings and then use it to set it up for a set period of time, say leave it for an hour or 30 mins and you get 1-3 fish, 3-4 hours and 4-6 fish. etc. It should be reusable in my mind and could be used in any water source. It would require a fair bit of coding etc but I think it would be a pretty cool thing to happen across, you come to a river looking to refill your water-bottles and then you see this line coming out of the water, "Yoink" free fish! You could leave it and wait for the owner, or just take it with you etc.
  7. Hey guys, I was thinking for quite a while about the limited ways of surviving in the forests, unless you manage to find lots of cows, sheep, goats, etc. you might get unlucky and get in the red out in the middle of nowhere. I was thinking that if there was a way to shoot birds, make it so that some forests or trees in particular have nesting birds that you can shoot and gut too. The other side of this I was considering was that if you run in a forest and pass a load of birds that you have a chance to startle them, giving away your position to anyone in the area. :o Also you could maybe find birds nests for eggs etc. :thumbsup: :beans: On another side note I thought that if people walk around near rivers or streams that they could leave footprints for a short time so that any hunter might pick up a trail etc. For rabbits I was thinking that if they had burrows that you could be given the option to light a fire in the opening at one end and them the rabbits would run put the other side. And last but not least I thought that fishing might be an idea at some stage. A collapsible rod could be a nice addition to the survival tools and if you could get nets and pots as 1 use items like wire kits and tank traps that you could use them in rivers and lakes and retrieve them at another time. :D Oh and why in gods name can you not drink at a lake without a bottle? :huh: You should have the option to drink at any lake regardless of what if any equipment you have. Any feed back or additional ideas would be welcome :D

    Error Fixes

    I've done all of these except reinstalling ARMA2, I did reinstall OA last night and your other fixes for CD ket etc worked for me, I'm getting the shakes at this stage, got a server the other day and all my mates are able to play, but not me... Close to eating my keyboard out of frustration... Any ideas? Also thank you for putting so much effort into this thread and the others, I'll be linking them from now on to anyone having difficulties.
  9. I've free'd up a few slots so far. Add away now people
  10. Also, by posting, you clearly got involved :P
  11. :huh: ... You high mate? Ireland and England are Geographically next to each-other. Also; If you'd like I can say "NO YANKS, ALL OTHERS WELCOME!" Just for you :lol:!
  12. Proximity mainly. Ease of communication in game and TS and time zone differential in Real Life would be two other factors I can think of off the top of my head. Not really opposed to players from anywhere else but still, just building our local base.
  13. LOL, How is that picky? :huh: Did you want to join mate? You'd have a pretty nice time on a German server I'd say :P
