No... You have an open world where you can go any where and do anything, and 1 day you find an underground base (like rocket is putting in) you then enter this "instance" and you come across a series of tunnels/mazes etc that have swarms of zombies stumbling towards you, now you can hand to hand them or shoot them.... Your choice...... Then Once you have cleared the area 1 possibility is you have the base rocket intended you to have :-) None of that is anti sandbox......

And there we go, your now in my head ;-)

Have you seen walking dead episodes I'm talking about? Because at no point did I watch that and think "good I miss WoW, this is so like it" Maybe it's because I used the world "instance", but that's how rocket was planning on doing the underground bases... As for you wanting to be alone, that doesn't mean we should leave features out because they may upset you?. Should we take the seats out of cars so only 1 person can sit in it? Etc... And what about these bases rocket are going to introduce, that need group efforts? This is along the same sort of idea... Also a "scaling" system could be put in place, so if you go in on your own it won't be as hard as if 4 people go in?

then you know what I mean by done correctly?....... The example I gave you before of the tower on green mountain is how NOT to do it :-)

How its lay out in my head :-).... Please see walking dead ;-)

Hmmm the puzzles were a last minute thought that gives people something to do... My main inspiration idea is to be like the prison clearing in walking dead..... I just think that is such a great idea to have, so long as it's done correctly.... I JUST LOVE THE IDEA OF CLEARING AREAS AND CLAIMING THEM FOR YOURSELF..... and this is exactly what I would do in a DayZ situation....

Sandbox means open world? You can do what you want and go where you want, right? So when you see the hospitals in the main city's you can go in it or you can not, right? So when you see an entrance to a underground facility you can go in it or you can choose not to? Also these can be random events like the helicopter crash sites... If they are static, always in same location then this is just like the underground bases that rocket is mean to introduce, so don't really see a difference?

Sorry, what?

Hmmmm again this isn't what I'm suggesting...... There is a huge difference between sticking down some "bugged/experimental" barb wire and searching and clearing a underground army base or prison, maybe having to find power to turn on lights so you can see more or using road flares etc, making sure you search and secure area by area so you don't get surrounded and attacked from all sides etc etc etc, the possibilities are endless...... including problem solving puzzles (like electric water that you have to put crates/pallets on so you can walk past... This is basic but you get the idea?) or they could just be pure kill and clear areas..... I'm only suggesting the basic idea I'm sorry I don't seem able to explain what i mean clearly...... The best example I can give you in game is when I found the big tower on green mountain (http://i.minus.com/i***AliRMI9Mp.bmp)... I remember walking in that 1st door way and seeing a small passage way and that led to another small passage and then to a ladder with god knows what at the end..... But to my disappointment there was nothing there.. No zombies etc... But my excitement and game enjoyment was at it highest, until I realised it was empty..... P.S barb wire and sandbags were a "test" that rocket knew was bugged but wanted to see if things were possible.. So if these were implemented properly u wouldn't be bad mouthing them as bad as you were...

Your right I edited to make it a spoiler..... But everyone should of seen it by now... It was 6months ago?

Hmm I don't remember anything like the prison clearing in walking dead being in game.. And certainly no control of areas being taken.... I guess you have to watch walking dead to understand what I mean (series 3 episode 1-2) as its nothing like WoW..... P.S even if it was like wow (which is not what I'm wanting or suggesting) would that be so bad as it is the most popular game ever made with 11million people PAYING for accounts and even more playing.... The only trouble with dayz as it stands is it has no end game stuff (other than PVP) so this would give you something to do after you survived a day or 2 ;-)

You got to be joking? What's not to like.... Especially if your on these forums?

Lol you know what I mean then?? So god damn frustrating :-(

In short:- whats the release date for it now? in long:- I have been checking http://dayzgame.com/ now every day for more info on the standalone...... And I know I haven't the right to, but I'm getting really frustrated at it not being out yet (or at least a more accurate release date)...... I remember talk about it being released towards the end of November.... Well we're here now, and I thought we would have at least count down or something by now...... so can I (we) have a more accurate release date please, I don't mind if you even say it will be another 2 months (well I will but you know what I mean :-))..... But it's the not knowing that's killing me... I gave up on the mod because it was very buggy (this isn't a complaint, I know it's meant to be) and anything I was doing would get deleted when the new standalone came out, and I didn't want to spoil the fun by "over playing" it.... P.S I have put off making this post everyday for the last month :-).... And I have about 10 people (who like me have stopped playing the mod for same reasons) asking me every day "is it nearly here yet" :-)

LOL as funny as this is and it made me laugh I don't think he means it like that.... I think he's saying that in an open field the helicopter wouldn't be a crash site... It would just be a controlled landing and so therefore a "whole" helicopter and not a crash site.... We're in a forest (if the pocket couldn't make it to the clearing) it would be a crash site..... But I just realised as I was typing this..... The helicopter crashed because the pilot/crew changed into zombies while flying (hence why the zombies at the crash site are dressed as helicopter crew) and so couldn't do a controlled landing so it would still be a crash site :-)

I wasn't banned I was kicked by YOUR software.... But sure, it's not related And It was your software as it said it uses "Dayz Anti-Hack"....... Hense why I searched and found this post! I suppose they could of been lieing and using different software and just using your software name, which I guess still makes it related to ur software and still ON TOPIC.

It appears very off topic? You for real? It's your software or someone doing something to your software that stopped me joining a server..... It's very on topic!!! But whatever.....

Ohhh maybe that was it......

Ya I tried joining and it came up with an error saying something and I quit and restarted with out reading it properly.... The second time I tried the same server it gave me the error again nd it was something like "you have been kicked, because this server runs this anti cheat mod and you can't join unless you sign up (or register) at dayz.com/forum" That's when I did a search for the name of this mod and posted :-/

1) Ok story:- Found a quad bike, fixed it, drove around with lights on, got excited and drove to fast and hit something.... Lights now don't work (back lights do)... I understand that I may of broken them, with my wonderful driving skills but can I fix them?? I'm sure I tried scrap metal but no lucky (I think I tried on this veichle, nothing is red anyway) To be honest this never happened with any other vehicle (not that i hit a lot of things lol) so i thought it wasn't possible lol ----------- 2) Also on the side I read somewhere that Some vehicles are rare etc, for example 1 per server... Does this mean it spawns once and that's it till the

How can I use the toolbox on the lights?? What do I do?

ok i just got kicked from a server saying i need to sign up for this, on this forum.... But where/how do i do this??

sorry maybe i read this wrong, but are you saying you want it easy to make ammo??? Emmm i dont know what to say to that because:- 1) tin cans are well easy to find (infact enoyingly to easy) 2) Chickens are around enough as well 3) have you ever tried to make a bolt that would fly straight?? NOT EASY!! IF this was put into place, it should be really hard to do and time consuming, ITS FREE AMMO, and reusable at that. The only things i would like to see changed is:- 1) ammo is picked up everytime (if you go to the right place.... if you miss by a mile and dont know where it went the tough) 2) there should be 3-4 bolts strapped to the crossbow that reload a BIT quicker than now and if you want to get more ammo to fill up them 3-4 once you fired them then you have to spend a LONGER time moving them 1 by 1 to the crossbow. 3) they should stack somewhere.... weither thats in a quiver that takes up a slot OR you just have 3-4 in 1 slot i dont know or mind. I do like the idea of crafting BUT it shouldnt be really easy and quick. A crossbow is an "elite" weapon and should stay that way.

Trolling??? Look up the definition of big words before you use them!!!!! (and if its not a big word for you then you have no excuse for using it out of context). You made a post that has no details on it except that you died by an unknown enemy, an unknown weapon, using an unknown hack. Then other people started to die on the server and you don’t know how or who by….. Really? People died on a game that the average life is 39minutes!!! Wow someone must have been cheating then………. Thanks for the info im sure they will stop that straight away for you!! And while they are at it they will get you the lottery numbers as well!! Now as I said before I I thought this post was in a different section of the forum so I apologised but if that wasn’t good enough for you that’s your problem! Now get a f**king life you momin and except someone either out classed you or was sat in an ambush for you!
