Klu

I got halfway through your post and realized... There's so much bashing on here because people keep posting the same thing. What you are saying has been said over and over. I think the people replying are possibly just getting sick of hearing the same things. It's hard to give a thoughtful, constructive, intelligent reply to EVERY single rant post. So, it's easier to just start bashing people. A large part, in my opinion, is there is so much out there as to what the developer(s) WERE thinking when making this "game", their intentions and such. The fact that people even call it a traditional "game" is a misnomer. I suggest reading up on the creator of this mod. He didn't make it to be fun. It was more of an experiment. The issue I see is, many of these rant posts don't see to take any of that into account. More likely than not, it's because you, as the poster, just don't know any better. You have your opinion, your game you bought and you want your opinion known. The problem is you didn't take the time to really read up on things before you vomitted on everyone. And THIS happens OVER and OVER and OVER. So, I'll apologize on behalf of the community that there's some harsh words thrown around. Maybe, just MAYBE, if you took more time to develop your opinion there wouldn't be so much flaming go on.

I posted a suggestion about a Killcam. I realized a killcam is a stupid idea. This WOULD solve some of my concerns that lead up to me suggesting a killcam. But, even this would be unrealistic, wouldn't it? But, it DOES show when some people die so shouldn't that be removed to make it more real?

I carry a can of beans with me everywhere I go now.

Wha wha whaaaaat?!

@1anton12 (OP) You're either trolling or you are that out of touch. Quit posting replies defending your idea. You reaffirm why it's a horrible idea. On to the next thread.

Um, you just took my last sentence, made it your first, added a question mark to the end of it then gave no substantial response to my post. Why did you quote me if you're not going to reply to what I said in an intelligent way?

Solution: Don't take hours to find a gun.

I haven't heard they were disabled... However, if you're just now starting the game, helicopters will be the least of your worries for the forseeable future :beans:

Fail.

Sounds like someone found the wand in Berezino hospital.

Huh? I'm sorry for your child having a parent who thinks there aren't black Barbies. I will NOT troll this post today... I will NOT troll this post today.... I will NOT troll this post today...

The title says it all. I'll confess that I have yet to even encounter another living person in-game. I've only been playing a few days and finally got an Alice pack full of beans and soda, about in the middle of the map and really enjoying myself. I'm looking forward to getting my head blown off and frustratingly gather up materials again. The one thing I've been thinking about is, if I'm sniped from a distance while running full speed across an open field like a noob, will I ever know where the shooter was? A quick, 5-10 second killcam, would tell me. Would this be fair to the shooter? I'd definitely learn a new spot. It'd make the sniper have to relocate. But what would keep me from telling my friend, who the sniper didn't see, exactly where the shooter is? I dunno, maybe I just answered my own question but I thought I'd throw this one out there...

I like the idea of possibly starting with another item or 2 of random low-tier things. Maybe start with a can of pasta but no water. That isn't going to actually do much, since you're still having to search for everything anyway, but it will add a little bit to the start. Night-time issues are solved with Video options. Simple enough for me. Less ammo spawns I like. Making ammo very scarce would add a nice element. Zombies... obvious problems are obvious. I like the idea of other "types" of zombies. Whether they are "elite", or whatever, we'll see. Maybe, at random spawn points, have a kind of "mothership" where zombies are constantly spawned and are being dispersed from those points. These "motherships" themselves can move and be hunted down and attacked but would easily be too much to handle for just a couple survivors. I haven't played long enough to comment on spawn rates of high-end weapons. Good post!

Liar. Now I'll begin reading your LONG and ARTIFICALLY SWEETENED post.

I had to Hanover my beans to that one...

DayZ is not a one-stop shop.

I like the fishing idea. I'd want something more authentic to the area. We're in the middle of Russia, aren't we? What about incorporating interactable plant life? Certain kinds of berries from certain bushes. Some even deadly?

Were you referring to... I just did read all the posts or like I just did call someone else out and bash them? Either way, I did both haha. I've been "trolling" this thread since this morning so I've just read all the replies throughout the day. Each life I have in this game I think of it as a story in itself. If my noob face gets blown off 30 hours into a life and I don't know where it came from, who's bad is that? I'm the one with no face, aren't I? An exciting end to an amazing story? I'll agree to that. What got me to play this game was the article posted on Ars. Despite all the roaming bandits and trigger-happy fools out there, the article was focusing on Dr. Wasteland and the "White List." There we have a group of people making the daily choice to risk themselves to help others while everyone else is ready and eager to put a bullet in your skull. THOSE people and THOSE choices are the balancing force to the "PK Issue". If you don't like all the killing going on the best way to help is to START HEALING. A little love wouldn't hurt! I've only been playing a few days and just finally got to the middle of the map. I have yet to even make it to a hospital but my plan is to learn more about this game and maybe, just maybe, try and do some good deeds and at least be known to those actually on the White List as someone to trust. THAT would be a pretty awesome feeling, knowing that there are others out there doing right and who trust me to do the same. Talk about emotional response! If I turn medic, though, don't think I'm letting my finger off the trigger. I'm no good to anyone dead.

This game is meant to illicit raw emotion. If you have been playing for weeks, have been killed and hate losing your stuff, wish there were a more PvE aspect, etc... That is the emotional response you are having. You are deciding to stop playing, or deciding to kill on site now instead of even trying to communicate. That is what this game as caused you to do. It's your decision, but don't shun the responsibility of your choice. We are seeing many just go on killing sprees. We see a general "distrust" between people and less and less willing to reach out, instead opting for their ultimate survival by making the other dead. This is the exact kind of thing the developers were looking for. Something real. Now, where do you decide to go from here? Do you keep trying to do the right thing, in spite of everything else? Or do you go down the path of murder and deciet? The choice is yours.

Suggestion Thread! Cannibalism of newborns and rape.

If you walk while crouched or standing you will hold the flashlight straight out. Running in the game, like running in real life, you are moving your arms to assist in running. I see what you mean inside buildings. Try turning your Gamma and Brightness up. You'll eventually not even need to use the flashlight (or prefer not to as it IS really easy to make your way around in the dark with your video settings changed). I think the mechanics of the Zed are a little lower on the developer's priority lists. At least, in making changes like you're suggesting. They don't even run in realistic paths. I aggro one and they run 50 yards to my right only to then make a weird alternate path back to me. You're asking them to make em smarter but they can barely move correctly as it is.

So are my nuts.

Yeah, I guess I thought it through more as I was typing the thread haha. A killcam would be pretty much the opposite of what this game is trying to do.

And your constructive critism starts where? Read through every post before YOU decide to single out someone and bash them. Someone made a thread with their opinion. They didn't have to make the thread. Now, they are getting responses. Chill out, Captn America, something tells me the originator of this thread will survive the DayZ ahead.
