    Walking stick, fancy pants and cigs?

    Or to fit in the setting an array of different qualities of vodka. "Damn - what a shame, to make a molotov out of these!"

    what ive learned today

    I am a Chernorussion soldier who had to assist the UN during the outbreak. The whole squad was wiped out, so I took the UN Seargent's blue Berrett and now I pretend I am him, so let't team up as the remnants of the UN forces!

    Shipwreck, am I the only one?

    I possibly know where you got stuck if you are in stern (=backside) of the ship. it someway looks like this if i remember right Go to the upper deck and move to the left or right. Then go to front. Once you're hitting the wall make an S-move and you will find the stairs that lead you to liberty!

    why do YOU play DayZ?

    Indeed! Try to modulate your approach to the game, it alters dramatically your experience! and as already said:

    Rest/sleep

    Nobody says that you aren't allowed to move around, but I just don't want to see my toon regenerating while he's jogging

    Rest/sleep

    Imho it shouldn't regenerate, while you are actively doing something. You really should need to rest. It even would give a meaning to making a break! Don't get me wrong! it shouldn't be exegerated, like waitng for a couple of minutes, but you should really need to rest for some time, allowing your body to relax. Maybe the weather would have also effects on that, too? I would love it, to creep out of the bright noon sun into the fading shadows. B)

    Rest/sleep

    I think it is of the utmost importance to rest! Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to sleep, because this doesn't work that easy in a multiplayer game. But your toon should need to chill down and regenerate. The more weight you're carrying with you, the longer or faster the hike, the longer you need to rest. Why? Simple reason: It gives you an incentive to find a safe spot and the need to chill out for some time. There are many times where I sit down, but it doesn't have any effect besides it looks funny when you are sitting on a bed. :D It is said that if you are eating whilst you walk, food won't be digested as good as if you are sitting down whilst eating. I guess there are studies that pose the opposite, but my point is that your avatar should need to regenerate while it is doing almost nothing, but to care for the simple needs. My thought was: Once ragdoll and proper collision detection is in the game you push the F-key which is now for sit and your toon does something according to its stance: -> you stand near a wall and push the F-key and your toon will lean against the wall regenerating at a very slow rate. -> pushing F-key whilst prone your toon will sit down. If you're near to a wall you will gain an additional bonus in regeneration for leaning. -> pushing F-key whilst laying the character will lay on it's back staring in the air. Best regeneration rate. Doing this on a couch, a bed or your sleeping bag would give a bonus to this. What do you think? p.S.: Imagine the side effects that could arise if your toon didn't rest well for some time. For example you're in the wilderness don't have something to light a fire to get warm and you need to lay on the hard soil, because you don't own a sleeping bag ...

    Crafting a small stove from an empty can

    I like all the improvised stuff!

    Holding people up! (The friendly way)

    Would love to see it in 1st person. Anyway nice encounters you had!
  13. I like this, too! Mabe it could spawn with random items that are 10% of the space the bag has. The rarer the item, the ... you know what I mean?!? You should find used stuff generaly everywhere where you can't buy it. Makes up for an elevated idea: The worse the condition of the bag, the more items it has in. The MORE it has been used before the outbreak, the higher the chance its original owner.put stuff in it. And you should have the chance of losing random items, if your bag is badly damaged. Smaller items should be lost more easily!

    An awesome adventure turns deadly...

    beans just for 1st person!
  15. I can't really say if it is MORE FRIENDLY. Only thing I know is, that there is a distinct difference between the perception of how you encounter another person. There is no birdseye behind which you can hide in first person. The encounter itself is absolutely different between 1st and 3rd person perspective. I personally prefer 1st person, so I play hardcore and most of the time I stumble into s.o. I don't get immediatly shot. But, that's just me :)

    21 hours of dayz

    If i got endgear what ever this means, I try to stumble into as many people as possible. Sometimes it gets me killed, but most of the time I have some unpredictable, tense and sometimes strange situations. This is what makes the game different from everything else in the last ten years or so. I love the game for this! But I also like it to start all over, knowing that most people on the server trying the same - to survive! Got some 100+ hours in the standalone and plenty more in the mod and I'm not bored from the game at all. I'm not the pay and spray guy, more of a talkative personality.

    Gameplay Impressions from a Player

    Welcome to DayZ Comte, where everything you do is in someway meaningful! p.S.: I know the pain you have felt while you were crawling throught the dirt in order to find that piece of wood that might have saved your life. In the mod I once crawled from Stary Sobor back to the coast to find some morphine only to die from someones hatchet inside the hospital. Bad day for me ;(

    Fill bottles with rain

    This is how you do it! Right click on the bottle in your inventory, while you're outside in the rain.

    rain question

    Rain has no effects at the moment, besides the indicators that have no consequences. But it will have in the future, promiss!
