They're not "playing" the game. They're "testing" it for several hundred hours a year for their own amusement. It's different. :/

Vestception was an exploit and you server hopping item miners should be heavily punished by any system that comes next. For example, your cart or red flyer doesn't jump servers with you.and there should be a % chance of items lost if you hop out and come right back. If not purely for exploiting then for dragging down server performance with your nonsense.

There would need to be a trade off between capacity, stamina, and distance traveled. How much can the cart carry? Half of my capacity? in that case I see no reason to even bother? 1X my load? 1/4 speed? Maybe. 2X at half speed and a 3/4 stamina usage? Sure. Balance folks. Just adding a cart with X space doesn't really make the game.

I still can't see how having more enterable buildings is a bad thing. I can't really wrap my head around that at all. And so what if it takes 3 hours to loot all of Cherno, that is entirely your choice. I don't even go there myself and have no problem gearing up or surviving. I also don't have much trouble finding people to run into if I actively choose to. They're just not camping Cherno roof tops and watching the handful of locations where loot spawns. Oh no, the game is ruined. I'm also concerned by what you believe is a lack of development in the SA. It may not have been as fast as we all would have liked but to suggest they're not working on it is asinine. When people complain about the "direction" of the game changing I can't help but wonder if they were just playing it for the PvP or the survival aspect that Rocket had always pushed. Sometimes I wonder if they even played vanilla at all. The mod is still supported. I'm sure the people who work on it in their free time, as it has always been, probably love it when proclaimed fans of it believe it's dead. And who cares about the public hive for the mod. The vast majority of players abandoned it long ago to the hackers and server hopping combat logging idiots in favor of private hives.

That's what powdered milk is made of.

You should probably ask them about as that's not an official source.

Wish I could make it that weekend. Will the panel be streamed?

Guys... guys. Calm down.

The other company is BI. Bi bought the studio and that studio is handling the AI. That's not exactly outsourcing.

Tried to kill someone with one last night. Didn't work. I'll stick to knocking them out and applying a bloodbag of the wrong type.

If they add skateboards before rollerblades I'm going to rage quit.

There's a lot of discussion about improvised weapons and other tools but no one seems to want improvised vehicles crafted from everyday items. With some basic know-how you can build a simple but reliable vehicle out of every day items found around the home or your neighborhood. Small gas powered motors can be attached to almost anything with wheels. Bikes are the obvious choice but anything can do. This gentleman took a self propelled tiller and attached a small cart to it. It may be loud and slow but it sure beats walking right? It also has the some basic defensive capabilities.

Well.. you know, you can't have an FPS without first person which is why DayZ has never been an "FPS". Yes, I'm the terminology police. :) Anyway, around we go once again gents. Surely this debate will finally be resolved with this thread.

I 100% support this as long as we get the option to break someones fingers. We always need non-lethal options for dealing with other players.

After spending last night sitting atop a roof in Cherno with my flashlight out simulating a lighthouse, I don't understand why there isn't an auto turn key.

Also, it would be great to have a really tiny rowboat that two people could fit in. Something easy to stash.

Because not knowing what you're eating and actively butchering a human and cooking it have the same impact on the psyche.

OTS is a terrible view. It's never worked in anything other than the most arcadey shooters.

This is related to desync. Pull up the player list and select your name next time this happens.

Any past episodes I can listen to in order to get the creative juices flowing?

Seems like providing a server hopper and blatant hacker free whitelisted server is probably the best service someone could provide for the community. But that's just me.

Most of the map making tools are available now but they are not for the casual designer and have a rather steep learning curve. How mapmakers will be able to generate nav-meshes hasn't been explained by the devs yet.

I'll support any system that limits the current infinite amount of any given item in game. As the game is now, given enough time and a couple tents each, we'd all be equipped exactly the same and have stockpiles of the "best" gear, whether we're connected to the main hive or not. That will get stale really quickly imo.
