This is the BEST idea ever suggested on this forum! I really hope no one steals this!!

I have no idea if this has been suggested yet but I believe this could be a good way to tackle the non HUD problems! Example. The first stage when you're starting to feel hungry/thirsty/sick/whatever your in game character will think like this: "I'm starting to feel a bit hungry", and in one hour or something like that you will have heard that, let's say, 2 times. Next stage would be: "I'm really hungry, I have to get some food." And again, maybe play that audio sequence 2 times on 45 min or whatever. Last stage: "If I don't eat something very soon I won't make it." Maybe play that 3 times over 30 minutes. Just make sure it's not too often to irritate the player. And what I mean with that the character thinking it, is that he really do think this. Not speaking out loud or something. Who the fuck would run around alone speaking to himself that he's hungry? I think this would be a pretty simple mechanic to implement in the standalone and would not be irritating or anything, if done right, Just record some phrases and play them so the only one hearing them is the player! Think about it Rocket! ;)

If you're gonna force 10.000 meters view distance on your server I don't think many would have a computer to handle that. 10.000 m is max fyi if you did not know.

Sarcasm.

It would take a huge amount of people and time to make that happen... If it's even possible.

Extremely well made! Unlimited beans for you guys! :)

I'm very positive we will be able to play the Alpha of the standalone this fall/winter.

The DayZ standalone will probably come out before Christmas. Not in 1/1½ years.

I knew it! No CE3 for DayZ :D

Standalone for sure!

They crawl because they have broken legs or because they are weak from not eating for long. It would be too messed up having zombies running around thinking like humans, applying tactics etc.

Congratulations DayZ dev team! Now would be a perfect time to officially announce the standalone. ;)

Bad idea. How the hell would a zombie be able to know what stealth is? The only thing they care about is food, not crawling in the woods avoiding snipers.

I went through the whole thread, didn't see anyone mentioning how large that terrain was. And I think the performance of the map was pretty bad.

Rocket stated in one of the last interviews that an announcement will soon be made about the future. And it will probably be the RV engine.
