Once (if) the zombies become a bigger threat than other players, maybe then you find other players more willing to co-operate and not shoot on sight, but even then they probably do it, just to prevent you doing it first, even if you wouldn't.

Zombies should have MUCH more HP than humans
Batlan replied to andrestor's topic in General Discussion
Zeds at the moment aren't that much of a threat, although they clip through walls and seemingly aggro you despite how sneaky you try to be. But once they get the zeds AI sorted and add more of them (I heard there will be hordes), I prefer them to be weak but plenty. Edit: Also they probably should carry loot like in the mod :) -
Color degradation from blood loss has to go (loss of visual fidelity)
Batlan replied to alleycat's topic in General Discussion
I do good, nice graphics! I do bad, all grey, what the! -
Not enough Food and Drinks --------------> KoS
Batlan replied to Masterwitz's topic in General Discussion
This exactly. Until the zeds become a real threat in SA at some point, players who just play to KoS might think twice before doing what they do. But then again probably not :) -
Sounds to me that the OP is looking for some perks to be added in Dayz. Be it from gear or some sort of talent system.

Not enough Food and Drinks --------------> KoS
Batlan replied to Masterwitz's topic in General Discussion
I suppose the respawning of loot as it works at the moment is discouraging some players a bit, be it the reason for KoS or not. I don't think most people KoS others due lack of sustenance, but rather because they can and want to, or just avoid the risk of getting shot instead. -
Not enough Food and Drinks --------------> KoS
Batlan replied to Masterwitz's topic in General Discussion
I usually tend to avoid encounters with other players but yeah I killed a few. Still I haven't had a hard time getting geared up as a fresh character, and I died quite many times during the past few days. I just ignore the spawn or south shore and head north. For me there was always something useful to be found that other players apparently left behind, and I mean the houses with doors open already. One time I was already starving to death but just kept going north and suddenly found lots of cans and sodas. -
My character had almost black and white vision though fully fed etc. (no hunger or thirst, nor sickness). I kept eating and drinking few extras and then kept playing for a while more. I then took an hour break and once I logged back in the game, my vision was all colorful again.
-
I heard you can also get sick if your body temperature goes too low, anyone confirm this? Don't think there are any indicators or messages about low temperature anyway.
-
I'm really interested in this to be honest. Playing with friends is nice but when someone has to log off and you still want to keep exploring it might be very painful to group up again later on. Still I'd prefer to stick with one character/account.

Why are people complaining about KOS like it's a feature issue?
Batlan replied to kragz's topic in General Discussion
KoS all you want. However I suppose quite many people are expecting more teamplay and friendly encounters in a zombie apocalypse setup. But yea players are alot bigger threat than zombies atm. Play with friends. -
Are you getting hungry / thirsty too fast again? Here is why and how to solve this
Batlan replied to nudelwalker's topic in General Discussion
Also avoid rotten fruits if possible. However fresh fruits seem to reduce both hunger and thirst if you manage to find any, I suppose it's best to consume those right away. -
Servers not showing and waiting for host
Batlan replied to Mori (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Aye think Orlok might have a heart attack before this issue is sorted. -

Batlan replied to Mori (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
You probably did notice the big announcement box about SA being alpha while you logged in, and hopefully reading Rocket encouraging you for not buying the game yet. This however came in recently: Dean Hall Important Update (Patch #2) for DayZ will be released in next 12 hours. More information to follow. #DayZ -
game crash every 10 minutes at big cities?
Batlan replied to ShokeR (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
You didn't hear people talking in VOIP by any chance? Since the only crash I encountered with was someone talking in VOIP (very laggy) and my game began to stutter alot, then crashed. This has been reported in bug section already though.
