just don't forbid custom faces, we're no longer on 2001

thanks mate! I'll try it next time, what I was doing realier is logging out and in again

^ THIS ^ I'm a man and I play as a man But I also played the Tomb Raider series and whenever I play: Saints Row 3 Global Agenda APB Reloaded Skyrim Oblivion Fallout 3 Fallout NV Mount & Blade: Warband Mount & Blade: Napoleonic My main character is always MALE but I also rol some female chars to see the models and armours and clothing I wont get tired of posting this whenever is possible: Guys, you need to demand that BI or Rocket, implement character customization, because that is a mayor sell factor, I give up asking for it to be present in this alpha mod, because ArmA II engine can't handle it and is only logical that a milsim like ofp/arma/armaII, didn't need that because it was ment to be a niche game, but with the massive publicity of DayZ, they need to change this, I don't want them to lose sales to WarZ just because of no character customization, join me! regards

THIS -Clothing: All clothing should be able to mix/match. For instance, you could carry a jacket with you to stay warm at night, maybe wear a bullet proof vest, gas masks, perhaps you've walked holes into your shoes...time to find new ones. This could play into the temperature/sickness dynamic and make your friends/enemies more easy to identify. Clans could all agree on a certain garb as well, making team members even easier to id. -Melee Weapons and Fighting: This probably goes without saying. If I where surrounded by dead and only had a hunting knife you better believe I would use it. You should also be able to fight them off to some extent. Punching, kicking, and pushing them back. Granted, I personally don't think you should be able to completely kill them without one helluva beating but being able to defend yourself physically against one zombie should be in the game. Don't suggest it, DEMAND IT I as an arma/ofp enthusiast, know that this is very difficult with the arma2 engine, but for the love of god ADD CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION, cosmetic morphs, see APB, saints row 3 and Global Agenda just to name a few

well played mate, I was preparing to go full auto, lol

Hey KingSix I seem to remember you, back in the ofp and resistance days, I'm not a modder, more of a mod editing enthusiast, trying to not hijack the thread, but as a Modder, you must know how difficult it is to port models for units in the arma engine Can we join forces or at least make the developers of arma 3 and dayz notice that an important aspect of gaming these days is "Character Customization" (appareance/cosmtic attibutes, i.e: morphs, clothing ,etc) we know for sure that DayZ is going either as standlone using arma3 engine or as an arma3 DLC, but without it it won't stand a chance against War Z or other MMO oriented clones, regards

Hi guys I'm a new player of DayZ and I'm having a blast playing it, and in the latest steam summer sale I bought 2 copies of ArmA 2 CO for my brothers But my history with arma2 is not new, I had OFP back in 2001 and registered an account in the BI Forums, since then I've been checking out other games/simulators and coming back for the arma and arma2 releases. Those other sims and games include: IL-2 1946 Rise of Flight Cliffs of Dover APB Reloaded Global Agenda GTA IV Saints Row: the Third Oblivion Skyrim Fallout 3 Fallou New Vegas Mount & Blade: Warband Neverwinter Nights series just to mention a few...you get the idea Over those years of being active in their communities I always wondered: Why doesn't Oleg Maddox (IL-2) get together with Marek Spanel (OFP/arma) and make the ultimate milsim, with the infantry and choper simulation of arma series and the flight models of IL-2? Why doesn't Todd Howard (skyrim/oblivion) get together with Armağan Yavuz (m&b/warband) and implement directional melee combat to the TES Series? Why doesn't Armağan Yavuz (m&b/warband) get the APB Reloaded Character creator and implement it on Mount and Blade 2? So it all will come to this: With War Z, most purists of DayZ get mad it is even mentioned because of the free press, and other players just don't get upset at all and claim it'll fail or that is WoW with zombies I think DayZ will be superior in all aspects but one, "CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION", I know for sure, Hall is working for BI Interactive and DayZ is either go out as Stand Alone using Arma3 engine or come out as a DLC of arma3, but thing is, would rocket like to loose all the potential clients to some sort of WoW MMO? All I'm asking is that DayZ would have a Character customization like APB, or at least Global agenda or Saints Row: The Third, because that's what sells what do you guys think?

Oh no guys, don't get me wrong, I know you can choose your gender and faces in the profile editor, but I'm talking more about morphs, nose, texture, hairstyle all those things that new games came with vanilla version Clothings, estature, build, voice sets, etc. you can check the APB reloaded character creator or the EVE Online one, heck even Global Agenda made good characters, there's also Skyrim and Saints Row 3 to name a few I don't know If I'm explaining it well, I'm talking about appareance not skills just cosmetic attributes, regards EDIT: I know it is not mandatory to have different models or builds, clothing, etc. but just take notice of the examples I listed, APB got a lot of hype because the character customization alone, skyrim and other games alike are plagued with custom races and body modifications.. All I'm saying is, War Z is going to have at the very least the same character customisation as War Inc. and that's something to think about, all I want is that people at BI or rocket himself take note of what could be another plus to increase sales

Are Characters liked to CD-key or profile? Have you thought about adding REAL melee? if so Is it directional melee combat?, see M&B warband for reference

Guys, guys, it's all ok, but don't forget, that what sells it is a thing called, customization. get the APB reloaded character customization system or something similar i.e: Global Agenda or Saints Row the Third get Directional Melee combat like Warband or War of the Roses And put it all together in the ArmA 3 engine or similar, and we're all set being monthly fee or single playment or F2P with micro transactions..we're all be there..

Payment: 39.99 usd Developer: Studio Developer, BIS Servers: Studio, account managed, battleeye, punk buster STORE: weapons, clothing and items (micro transactions of 10 to 15 per item pack) ENGINE: ArmA 3 like engine. cryengine, unreal engine, dunia engine, frostbyte engine, they won't cut it, it has to have a 225km2 landmass and make you feel the same as arma2 Character customization: APB Reloaded. I mean you can't fall short the LEAST you could do is implement a customization as Global Agenda or Saints Row: The Third CQC, indoors: Why you have to feel like is a struggle to go inside a building in arma, arma2 and GTA4? Ragsdolls: euphoria, nuff said. EDIT: properly implement Melee combat, and use DIRECTIONAL MELEE COMBAT, see Mount & Blade: Warband
