That surely was a lot of fun. I would waste heli fuel for that.

I estimate about half an hour. But I'm not sure.

That's a good idea, though really bad expressed. Sounds fun. Though you probably always would die in a question of a few minutes, as soon as some trigger-happy maniac sees you.

I also think the hunting knife should be able to be used as weapon, just to have ~something~ when you can't find a hatchet. And a knife that you can't use as a weapon really confuses. To make it clear, at the moment the knife only is used to gut animals (Action Menu, after you killed it so you get raw meat in the inventory of the animal). And a hatchet, as said, is also useful for cutting some wood to make a fire and cook meat. I personally prefer this much over canned food, as it heals much better and you easily have a more or less secure income of it. And if you ever get your toolbelt completely occupied: respect. I wonder if it is even possible. I think there aren't even more tools in DayZ than toolbelt slots, so that is your last worry for sure. Better be glad it doesn't occupy another valuable inventory slot!

I think a warning or so when you kill somebody newly spawned would help. But regulation always is very problematic. I just hope people will become a bit more mature when they are playing some time. But I also had a bad experience some days ago. I spawned in Komarovo and was looking for a hatchet near the docks. Suddenly a player comes around the corner with a hatchet and just starts running towards me. Well, I naturally start running too and talk to him in VoiceChat that teaming up would make more sense and that I don't have anything. He doesn't answer and after one minute we get shot by another retard. Just freaking disappointing. Especially as you have much higher chances of survival as a team. Killing somebody with bad gear and looting will probably not prolong your life as much as teaming up with them. Maybe some day people will realize that.

Well, if you look around you will find the sniper hotspots quite fast. They almost always are near the forest, as the ghillie suit only is suitable for that. Forest near the air strips, forest near Cherno... Think like a sniper and imagine where you would want to hide. That's what I would do too.

I really like your way of thinking, rocket.

Honestly these ideas sound quite worth a laugh EDIT: Without wanting to defend anybody though

Looks like the debug plains. Go east. http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Debug_Plains
