If it doesn't work they can just remove third person. If they don't want to try and fix third person they can also just remove it.

DayZ is gonna be a sad joke until it's first person only. "Hey dude check out this third person survival simulator!" hah!

Yes, this is needed.

I really want to meet the infiltrator, I need to give him beans! This is the kind of saboteur shit you only read about in Eve. Also hilarious: OP was so unhealthy he died from food poisoning.

Your reward should be the materials you've gathered, the structure(s) you've built, and the vehicles you've repaired.

The coolest part about this is that this is already very possible, the placement mechanics have already been done in mods.

Delicious combat logger/server hopper tears.

1) lol 2) its a bug

Man, I can't believe people want this game to be more like WoW of all things. Why not an awesome MMO like Eve Online? (it has the same logout system as DayZ you know) Of course OP is just using the guise of a bug to bitch about not being able to safely combat log so...

I like this poll, it's basically asking combat loggers/server hoppers to show themselves.

I really like OP's idea, dynamic graphical slot and volume based system. Maybe by default divide the grid up into 100 cm3 chunks or something, then separate pockets in a sub-grouping along those slots (ex: jeans, front outside pockets are 5 new style slots (for reference, a soda can would be 3.55 (355 cm3) slots) grouped together, back pockets 2 slots each, front inside pockets only half of a slot or so each). Like the entire object is collapsable, individual pockets are collapsable. If you made the relevant things collapse on gear exit you do a good job of simulating the time it takes to dig around in your pockets as the player opens the gear menu and accesses items. (for example, the jean object wouldn't automatically collapse - the pockets are easy to access, so they don't either, but in a backpack the whole thing would collapse automatically on exit because you can't easily access it). Pocket stretching is great too - it'd be nice if you could go even further over limit but risk increasing the wear rate on your clothing at the same time. The medkit would have purposefully sized pockets made precisely to fit what is in them - you might be able to shove a couple of pens or a couple of 5.56 bullets or maybe even 4 9mm bullets into the syringe's pocket, but that isn't a lot. Of course an epipen/morphine shot will fit that slot too... The watertight all purpose container has a variety of pockets in it, but its main use is to protect things that can't or shouldn't get wet. The ammo can is, well, an ammo can, a precise volume for some chain linked rounds but you can throw whatever in there - of course, the chain linked rounds are unwieldy and difficult to find a space for anywhere else. As for construction/vehicle materials, those are far too large to carry in any regular pocket - being able to lift and carry them should definitely be possible. Encouraging teamwork (2 transporters, 2 guards for safety or 4 all transporting for speed?) simultaneously discourages KoS ("hey man wanna help me move this shit to build a structure?" or "hey, you're our slave now, carry this shit or die.") and makes it hard to be alone but still possible (a hermit sneaks into a construction site and steals planks, he keeps up with this for a while and is able to build a nice small shack for himself). But what you really want for construction is a vehicle - carry your shit to the truck, throw it in and drive it to your construction site.

It isn't, he just keeps digging for replies so he isn't forced to bump the thread alone and get it locked. Don't reply and this thread will die.

30 seconds to 1 minute is fine. Once building construction/securing is added, sleepers should be added too like Rust's, that's such a brilliant system.

The people complaining about PoS are absolutely hilarious, talk about getting a taste of your own medicine.

Obviously grass and shadows should be required to be on a minimum level.
