You can see them, but it will be blurry.

I like the zeds the way they are now. What we need is other lethal environmental elements kicking in.

BBF, clearly you haven't played previous builds. The state of the current mod is from demands made by the community that have been in line with the vision of the developer. Two of the things you've asked for were in previous builds and have been thrown out because they weren't functioning properly. We aren't going back 10 builds just because new players find the current build too challenging. You would do best to adapt and continue to learn, your suggestions have already been used and eliminated. Save yourself some time and stop fighting with the 90% on this forum who only troll. Edit: As for your third suggestion. It will never happen. I've tried to explain to people you aren't respawning, you are starting fresh. You have a new character, it's not a respawn in the same sense as a traditional FPS, your old guy is dead, you have a new guy when you start over. Why should you be able to teleport as a fresh character to your friends? Yes it would make things easier, but you are starting out as a lone survivor again and half the fun is meeting up with friends or other people.

It was on BBC like two weeks ago. They're a little bit bigger than your local station.

So if you have a backpack and then pick up the M107 it doesn't take away that backpack slot?

That's what I was getting at when I said it was pretty pointless. ArmA players are now grossly outnumbered by pure Day Z players. To install a separate piece of software that normally takes longer to update itself which happens all the time than it does to just do a manual update is just flat out stupid for most people. Do I use Six Updater? Sure do, but I also have a ton of other mods to update that I use regularly. I don't suggest it as it is really a massive overkill for Day Z players.

I'm all for being amicable, but I mean I've come up with actual mechanics for suggestions and tried to create a discussion about those mechanics and a number of people got on board and we started trying to refine those mechanics and we came up with some really solid ideas. That sounds great right? Well after my OP the first 5 comments were "this is fucking stupid, you are a moron" etc, etc, despite the fact that after like 5 pages I along with like 10 other people came up with solid and implementable mechanics to remove the indicators and replace them with audio visual queues. Towards the end of the thread we were still getting "this is fucking stupid, you are a moron". This is the internet, anyone and everyone can be as big of a tool as they want and there will never be a recourse. What is amazing to me is that people may actually think someone is going to take them seriously when they post stuff like "This is bullshit, wtf are you thinking when you put shit like this in the game?". Personally I have no hope for this "community" as a forum. I do have hope for the mod as it has a headstrong developer and solid support from BIS. I'll continue to put around here and draw the ire of some and the applause of others, I really just come to see what updates are cooking. Wanna know what the real problem with Day Z is? The community as a whole needs it to fit in one of the boxes they've been groomed to have to play in. Not saying Day Z is a revelation, no it's not, but it doesn't fit in a box yet so people are confused. People are trying to impress the box they want on it, like Deathmatch or Gun Grinding or Questing or whatever. Well, Day Z is an infant and it doesn't have a box to fit in yet so stand the fuck by and wait it out, or do what most do on this forum and moan about everything.

This is just all very very very funny to me. It has happened after every patch. This is the second time we've had zombies worth a damn and people cried last time too, but we had a massive surge in pointless PVP after the Zeds got toned down, now we have to fear the environment again. I can't wait for infections/colds/hopefully Ebola to make their way back into the game. For some reason people think the point of the game is to grind for guns and gear like you're gonna get a fucking gold star at the end of the day. So stop crying about dying because it's the loss of gear that makes people sad........... just try again, it's not that hard. The point of Day Z is survival and the experiences you have while trying to survive. Nothing says you are going to live. Your gear doesn't mean anything, they're just tools that should help you survive a little longer. Give up the grind and make some friends and maybe start trying to have some fun with it instead of staying on the coast attracting a bajillion zeds while you look for beans. People will keep crying about this patch but I don't think Rocket is going to remove the zombies, they're fine the way they are really. The only things that ever get changed are broken mechanics like temperature and infections and they were severely messed up. Zombies are still functioning so best learn to deal with it.

thats all well and good' date=' but your talking about the wrong game. we are discussing dayz not vanilla arma 2 [/quote'] Clearly you didn't read the third sentence in my post. Nor do you understand the second.

Cant we have more sand and some extra bucket&showel in our sandbox? Why cant you get that? Is it really that appealing to act like some Arma2 hipster? You have plenty of sand and dozens if not hundreds of buckets to play with in ArmA II. It just so happens this mod is a one man show and you people are never happy with what you get. It's a development process that has to be waited on, you are in the middle of the growth cycle. It's fine though, Rocket isn't a bitch so he'll just keep chugging. As for sandbox? Just some stuff my clan has done (almost all COOP): Created a player driven persistent campaign in Chernarus where we started as a small group of rebels fighting to free our country from a Russian puppet regime. I personally created a 12 mission coop campaign (each mission between 1 and 4 hours long) on Zargabad featuring USMC, British Army, KSK fighting an insurgency complete with storyline and each mission was different following along the storyline. I also created a sandbox style large scale mission for a British infantry squad on Hellskitchen Sangin map where there were 12 missions complete with supports that could be tackled in any order and in any fashion the squad wanted to. Done a ton more stuff for COOP. The sandbox is bigger than most new ArmA II players have any idea exists. The limit to the sandbox is your own creativity and that's it.

Game was getting boring, that's a fact that many people were getting fed up with it and it was no longer challenging for them. Any sort of added features were welcome. If I log in today and get eaten by zeds I'll deal with it, I'll adapt and learn to do something else. I'd rather be challenged than just walk around looking for gear and being able to get all I need and more without fear.

Yeah solid shot, but not that far. It was from on top of the fire station by the power plant in Elektro firing on the hill to the southeast of it. Somewhere between 100-200m but closer to 100m. Still a solid shot.

I walk a lot...

BIS should push for a 60 dollar bundle that includes BAF and PMC with Combined Ops. Sound unfair?

And again, yes it sucks that you need BAF to see the two textures, but you aren't paying for just two textures a whole lot more comes with BAF than just two textures and it's ALL GREAT CONTENT. BIS doesn't owe you anything for free. You are the sucker that decided you HAD to have a FREE mod for a game that COSTS MONEY. I know you don't want to play ArmA II or it's addons but you will be paying for them if you want the textures so you may as well enjoy the content you pay for.

I'm still waiting for proper female skins and the Dualan t-shirts.

Yeah really, you're hacking in tanks and shit to maybe go kill one person you happen to stumble across. Why not just play with the editor and make a kick ass mission where you have hundreds of NPCs and you can go blow up whatever you want?

The block JSRS (sound mod) and Blastcore (Particle Mod) and they are client side. Hacker Paranoia reigns supreme in Day Z and doesn't seem to change anything.

Or become desensitized. Nah, I'm leaning on desensitized. A zombie eating your friend is no worse than watching your friend be burned alive in a HMMWV. Or watching your child be blown to bits by a mine. The human mind is much harder to break when you actually start putting stress on it.

We can't have our own custom radio functions for a reason. This would be abused ad nauseum.
