tl;dr OP just stated, that lonewulf banditry will become even easier.

Maybe bandits should emit some sort of sounds. Just like zombies but of course something different.

Let's not forget that this is still a game, allthough it has some kind of realistic approach. But pulling a trigger in reallife is pretty damn hard. Even sickos like MR DELICIOUS wouldn't run through a countryside in Breivik-style killing everybody on sight (At least i hope he wouldn't). So of course there has to be some kind of penalty to senseless murders.

The only way for us to know for sure is to test the damn feature. So we should test it. Like Rocket said we can always roll back... Now is the time to test shit. It's pretty obvious what will happen after this change. But hey, this is still an alpha and rocket can do whatever he wants. I am the last one telling him what to do.

Ya, those of us who chose to go this path, are the reason you guys are freaking out. This game isn't meant to baby you, you are supposed to chose your path. And we chose to kill whoever we deem not our friend, and I deem anyone who I'm not on voice comms with, not a friend. Same goes for me. Anyone who I am not voicechatting with is not trustworthy. But that doesn't mean i'm going to kill every unknown person on sight. That's because i am no douchebag and in addition i really care about my humanity, allthough this is just a printed number. With this new approach I just will kill everybody on sight, making my life in Chernarus MUCH more easier. So far for "this game isn't meant to baby me".

I don't like this decision at all. It will draw me to shoot every person on sight, which I -at least until now- never did before. And i am quite proud of never killing a survivor. Of course all bandits are liking this idea because it comes in handy for their style of play. I know that rocket is trying to test everything, which is most of the time really good . But in this case there really is no testing required. I can exactly tell you what will happen: Massive FFA Deathmatch. I'm not saying that i really like the current system. But this new approach makes Humanity-Points quite obsolete.

No. It's also a HEAT round, specialised for penetrating armoured vehicles.

Most probably there will be Hats.

Dear god, this was incredibly great!

It is quite astonishing that DayZ reached 60.000 unique players so far. I guess at least half of them buyed Arma II just for this mod.

Arma is pretty much realistic in terms of what a really dark night looks like. I remember that during a military march in the forest I couldn't literally see my hand in front of my face. So we had to turn on the electrical illumination of our sights and open the top cover (which is normally used to produce the red dot in sunlight). By turning the top cover to our back we ensured that at least the men behind are able to follow.

I will gladly welcome any Bandit with some russian bullets out of my AK ;)

Are you all complaining about stuff that isn't even implemented yet? Really? DayZ is all about trying something different. That's why this mod is so awesome and it should not be in your interest to prevent Rocket in trying something new.
