Combining more ammunition types
Deviant (DayZ) replied to 10Lives (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
How it is now is only a test. More will most likely be added, with a better system than a simple "Converting" system. 7rnd 1911 mag -> 6rnd revolver mag doesn't really make sense. But FAL couldn't because 1. It was a new addition and 2. It already had a "Conversion Pair" (M24 -> DMR) -
Excellent idea. I'm sure this is up there with urgent things to adjust.

My suggestion for an Anti-Hopper system
Deviant (DayZ) replied to Y0shi (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
This sounds like the most feasible idea for jumping from server to server spawning new loot. Not to be confused with a similar term of "AltF4"ing, changing positions, then coming back to kill your attacker. -
Taking a Note from past Zombie Games
Deviant (DayZ) replied to Gaidoon's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I was about to ask. All these have been discussed. New animations, "Possum" zombies, players as infected. Yawn. -
[just an idea] Bandit penalization
Deviant (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Not only has everyone else discussed this, you should talk about it on the PvP discussion thread. Making suggestions about penalizing bandits doesn't really contribute. Once rocket decides, okay, we're going to penalize bandits, then you can discuss different ways of doing that. Until then, inb4 thread dies. -
Welcome to Alpha. All your things are likely to be gone. Do not be attached to your loot. It takes less than a few hours to get any loot in dayz.

Day Z is insulting to vegans (and animals)
Deviant (DayZ) replied to FaxMonkey's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
-sigh- This post was parodying the "DayZ is insulting to transgendered people" thread. The thread starts off the same, ends the same, changing the words to make it sound even more lolsy. -
Does 1.7.2 allow pistols to be lowered?
Deviant (DayZ) replied to craftymethod's topic in New Player Discussion
Herp. Read the changelog maybe? Press G. Press G again. Suddenly, you look like this guy -
Anyone who hacks has to buy a new game once the master banlist is sent to battleye again.. ;)

Been seeing this word thrown around alot...
Deviant (DayZ) replied to pilot's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Welcome to alpha. If you want a single guy to make YOUR game, Capture him and pay him a $50-$100k salary. Or, you could wait longer than 3 months to say this game is broken beyond repair. You could let rocket expand or otherwise further develop his IDEA of a game, and see where it goes. If not, everyone needs to seriously, seriously stop crying about every new update. It reduces team morale, and puts unnecessary pressure on the development team, and everyone else. -
Ability to scar/mark other players
Deviant (DayZ) replied to fish911503's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
If you are retarded, you will be captured. This wouldn't really add to anything, Enjoy trying to "capture" a player who doesn't trust other people.. =\ -
Lol DayZ Problems But seriously, make sure your card isn't throttling. Make sure your "clocked" Cpu isn't throttling either. Any other games cause these problems? Try medium settings, V-sync enabled, etc. Play around until you get good fps. Doesn't make any sense, but try everything.

Telepathic groups of survivors
Deviant (DayZ) replied to _Profile_Shame's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Makes sense, but lots of time you would need a pristine environment to play in, which many people don't have. For example, the sounds of cars outside, other people in the room, a fan, etc. An excellent idea, however! Perhaps with a TeamSpeak/ACRE Like Radio/directional-speaking plugin, this would work much better, as Teamspeak is much higher quality than ArmA2 VOIP. -
Thank you for showing me this. I will now actively make false accounts and post trades for people and steal their things :) Guys, seriously, wait until this shit is implemented. You are going to die, and people are going to cry MORE about "omg shoot on sight steal all my valuable beans"

Banned from US 85
Deviant (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Interesting, since as an administrator you can't spawn items.. ;\ Sounds like amateur PR. -
This doesn't solve the problem of people disconnecting to avoid death. However, it does solve, kinda, the problem of people going from one server, getting shot at/killing someone, disconnecting, then rejoining at a better location.

FN FAL ANPV S4 Nightvision can't be turned off
Deviant (DayZ) replied to Satan (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
You cannot turn the night sight on and off. This is not a DayZ bug, this is an arma 2 feature. -
Remove the radar from helicopters
Deviant (DayZ) replied to DJKhaled's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
ArmA 2 didn't have a radar like how there is in arrowhead. At least, not that I can remember. Removal of the radar is the most important thing. You can fly around the map, finding all vehicles in a matter of a few minutes this way. -
The pleasure boat dilemma
Deviant (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
You can modify vehicles to be able to "load in" other vehicles. Perhaps have the hilux able to carry the RHIB, and the Ural/ V3S able to carry the small boat? -

[Do you wana pull the Trigger?] [y]/[n]
Deviant (DayZ) replied to D3s_ToD3s's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Instantly read as a cry thread about trying to reduce PvP. This is a terrible idea. Who would want brownie points for not killing people, when you could just kill people and take their loot? -
Stalker zombie. Limited spawn rate. Similar to the "witch" in Left for Dead 2. Hard to spot when it's "roaming". Once it hears you (perhaps very high "Hearing" distance, but poorer "seeing" distance), it starts sneaking up on you, following you, going slightly faster then you travel, not making any noise. It moves up to you, extremely close, then screams loudly and attacks you. If you see it before it gets close to you, it screams and sprints towards you super fast until you kill it. Needs to be more creepy shit ;)

Ghillie Suits Protect Against Thermal
Deviant (DayZ) replied to Brusann's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Making the ghillie invisible on thermals wouldn't make any sense. -
There are easier ways to fix item duplication. Item duping happens due to an exploit in the lag between client side, server side, and database side. It'll all be fixed soon, don't worry.

AKM = 2/3 shots FAL = 1/2 shots FAL has more recoil, a higher rate of fire, and slightly more accurate. FAL Is slightly longer, 20 round magazine, and more noisy. No full-Auto. It's semi-rarity on crashed helicopters, however, is commonly found there. AK has adjustable sights, larger magazine, and is more common. AK is somewhat inaccurate at long ranges.
