I'm guessing there is a command saying toggle_weather_effect_rain_01 or something similar to that in which case you would just need to activate the drink water command, and maybe take twice as long to get to full thirst.

I've crawled in and out of Cherno without dying, sure I was shot at 15-20 times but it's all about patience and intelligence. It adds a realistic edge to the game, if your stupid and run around in the streets obviously your not going to survive that long, other players just speeding up the process. However, if you prone and crawl through the grass and analyze the direction the shots come from you can efficiently avoid dying or even being hit for that matter. Example: I'm crawling on the side of the road entering Cherno, *Crack* a shot whizzes by my head as the shooter prepares to zero in his rifle. I look to the left and see a wall with a crumbled bottom, I quickly crawl under the small gap in the wall and maneuver safely through the yard of a residential building while a sniper lingers about my location scratching his/her wondering when i'm going to pop my head out, which will never come, because by then i'll have moved on and left him punching his keyboard as he lets a precious kill slip through his grasps. If everyone does this then eventually snipers will have to adapt in order to efficiently hunt their prey, which could mean more uses for frag grenades, using closer ranged weapons to secure kills.

If i'm dying of thirst or at least very red in the thirst bar, shouldn't i be able to drink some of the rain whether it be straight from the sky or filling a water bottle. I know if I was dying of dehydration i'd be standing straight up with my tongue out trying to gulp down that precious water.

Wouldn't it kick ass to climb a tree. Possibilities: -Sniping -Fruit Gathering -Grabbin Nuts, from the trees branches -Zip Line from tree to tree -Reinact Katniss from the Hunger Games -Pretend to be doing something important -Sleeping -Hiding from Zombies -Playing your Game Boy -Eat some Beans in solitude -Hang a Flare -Search for Bugs -Knock Down Bee Hives -Ass Creed Assassin's jump onto a player or animal -Jerk Off

Camp fires should be more heavily implemented. Aside from a necessity for cooking meat, it's almost entirely useless. If a temperature system is to be added, which would explain the HUD and the heat packs then campfires would be a great source of warmth, this also adds a more realistic approach to bandits and survivors, as campfires would allow survivors to avoid and bandits to raid. Also, maybe campfires could give a temporary zombie free safe zone so survivors can take a few minutes to count their supplies and map out what they need before moving on.

There should be a noise similar to that of L4D when that loud scream noise comes into play and you have that *Ohh Shit* feeling if you attracted too many. Awful Idea <-----

Maybe every 72 hours a vehicle is left untouched it is respawned to its original location. This could allow cars to be brought back into circulation after an inactive organization has hoarded them into a bush at he corner of the map, while also pleasing gangs who actively use their cars and don't wish them to be respawned.

Well being the first one to come up with the idea I believe I should have the most say in the use and practicality of the "Full Whiskey Bottle." As Lord Rayken said "Temporary morphine substitute with some reasonable vision blurring/shaking when aiming. It would be annoying, but a fair tradeoff not to have to crawl to a hospital. Whiskey should spawn everywhere that the empty bottles do and last maybe a half hour or less..." My final solution for whiskey is that it should be a morphine substitute lasting 30 minutes as I stated above with similar effects to shaking during aiming due to the need of painkillers and a slight blur/darkening of the screen similar to low blood count. I do not take kindly to some of you raping my thread and undermining my ideas and submitting your bad ideas, such as being a pain reducer????

I saw this video on youtube and it inspired me to do a similar idea. Does anyone know how to stream audio files over the microphone like this?

ikr ^

I bought Arma II CO just to play DayZ, I honestly don't see the problem in that. DayZ only got better once it went mainstream. You only liked it when i wasn't mainstream because there was less competition.

I approve!

I don't think anything else should come from whiskey in the game other than a temporary morphine substitute. Anything else along with many other ideas would be total crap like blurred vision, and reduced pain, that's just going over the top.

My primary use for whiskey is one that could bang out two birds with one stone. The cosntant complaints of broken bones needing to be fixed and an easier to find alternative to morphine.

"pissed off your head", I'm guessing you don't drink. Why don't you chug a bottle of jack daniels tonight, i'll break your leg and you tell me if it hurts. Assuming you don't die from alcohol poisoning.
