People get excited from finding FN-FALs? I go, "Oh fuck me, another FN-FAL." Seriously, I've ran into like 3 at the same helicopter site. Fucking FN FALs. GIVE ME A MACHINE GUN.

At the current moment, the Arma 2 system is somewhat limiting of what the Day Z mod can do. For example, I'd love to see limb injury and further bone injuries beyond the leg bone, but I don't believe that's possible on the current engine, or at least it'd be pretty fucking hard. At the same time, it'd be cool to have a character with an arm blown off from a shotgun and no real solution to the problem. At the current moment, bloodbags and morphine and you're all set. Back to tip top condition, which doesn't really allow for any room persistent injuries. (Not that I'd want leg bone injuries to be persistant at its current stage. Crawling around is a bitch.)

Translated to English for everyone else.

^ Hahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah Good one, those servers'll get shut down. Do some of you come here and just post without paying attention to any of Rocket's interviews/personal philosophy? He is the antithesis of your gay carebear play. go fucking buy l4d2 or something

And you don't see anything ironic about that statement? The fact that survival is easy in a survival-oriented game?

Well no shit a player should be scared of other players more than zombies. People are a lot more dangerous than zombies. My issue is with why people are PvPing, rather than the fact they're PvPing. Treating this game as a shooter FFA where the objective is to rack up as much as kills as possible is silly.

I think one of the difficulties in this game is recognizing people that you already know. You might've met up with someone, but the next time you see him, you might instead pull a trigger only to go 'Oh shit' when he dies and his name pops up. So, how do we fix this problem? I think hats, much like Team Fortress 2, would make this issue a lot more realistic. Consider it for a moment; there could be hundreds upon hundreds of hats. You'd recognize your friend by the hat he wears - but wait! Someone else might wear the same hat as him. This reflects the fact that people in real life can look similar, especially from far away. It'd be difficult to tell who each other is until you get close enough to actually talk, which reflects you can't really distinguish people from far away. Anyways, thanks for reading, and feel free to leave CONSTRUCTIVE criticism and comments.

PvP should be a calculated risk. Dying and respawning over and over while your friend watches your corpse so you can retrieve doesn't seem to be in the spirit of the game. It's not a roguelike if you can recover all your shit that easily, after all. Furthermore, the shooting for the lulz bullshit does need to go. This is mainly due to a lack of things to do moreso than a desire to just grief, though. I don't know if a respawn timer is an accurate response to either of these problems, honestly. You could solve #1 by not allowing players to loot their own corpses (I don't even fucking know why this hasn't been implemented) and you could solve #2 by making survival more difficult and having more things to do once you're decked out in military gear (which takes about an hour for an experienced player given the ridiculous military loot spawn rate at the current moment.)

Suicide. Not down for zombie shit, man. Probably just get really plastered and kill myself.

I don't know, if you introduce a surrender mechanic, the French servers would go nuts...

What part of never do you not understand? It's like suggesting to the United States, "Hey, maybe you should stop invading other countries." It's pointless.

Antarctica would be a pretty cool setting.

Well, first off, your country is the United States of America. It's pretty arrogant of yourself to assume that your one country encompasses all of America, when there are two different continents with multiple countries on each. Secondly, you're showing off your oppressive tendancies by trying to push your religious beliefs on me. I do not believe in your Christ. Please stop trying to convert me.

They see me trollin', they ragin'

Actually, Russia is made up of different republics, provinces, districts, and territories. There are no such things as states, and it's pretty silly of you to want to impose the idea of states onto Russian servers.
