1. A harsh and dynamic environment. Think cold fronts, warm fronts, and zombie fronts. 2. Less Pew Pew more "holy shit!" 3. More room for activities (even if it means loading screens to journey to new maps)

Is there anyway we can get the bots to cower like civilians? Maybe even throw in a nice crying sound?

Bandits have red tracers. Heroes have green or blue. Zombies always manage to sneak into the backseat of a car when no one is looking.

Parking it on top of buildings in heavy traffic areas is a sure way to have it destroyed. It can also vanish from that little island. If you have a URAL or if you can fly like a champ, hiding the chopper in deep woods is best. There are plenty of places to land it in heavily wooded areas with just the right amount of space between trees. With a URAL, you can knock down trees and then land it. When the server resets, the trees come back and only someone with a ural can get at the chopper without destroying it on lift off. If you find a good spot off the beaten path it'll be there the next day.

My character doesn't have a save option so I don't log out. I just tell everyone where I am and what gear I have.

Depends on what kind of engine block you're talking about. I'm all for any change that makes the game harder. If that means only carrying one tire at a time while walking very slowly, so be it.

I've found maybe 3 at their spawns in several months and countless visits to hospitals and med tents. I've only gotten sick once but I actually had antibiotics at the time. Yay.

I'm hoping on an encumbrance system. We shouldn't be able to run at full speed with 80 liters of fuel or a rotary assembly in our inventory. Bandages should stack in 5's IMO.

Does it happen when you connect to servers running Chernarus or only servers running custom maps?

Damn. These guys are creative at least.

You can already change your face and skin color but more options are always welcome.

Practice. Fire up the mission editor, drop in some guys you want to shoot, setup some waypoints for them to walk and run back and forth to, and blow their melons off. There is also a moving target range someone made for Arma2 but I wasn't able to get it to work. Maybe someone knows of a decent one.

Shakes, that don't impact a player's ability to shoot straight, or a skin isn't going to dissuade people from utilizing the most abundant food source in the game. The consequences would have to be enormous to discourage this or this game will turn into nothing but a cannibalism simulator.

Balance, how does it work? All kidding aside, there's enough snipers in game already. Making sniping easier will only make things worse.

I was stalking Rockets posts when I saw this. :|

You didn't look in the most obvious place, in other players packs. The second most obvious place would be on zombie corpses.

Sell Ah Dor uh?

A quick search returned one other guy that mentioned it back in June (my search skills might suck) but I wanted to see what you guys thought of it? I figure a pontoon plane could come in handy.

I don't know enough about Taviana to make a judgement but avoiding drama is always a good thing.

That's pretty awesome. That adds a whole chaos element to it. :) I'd still suggest at least a private hive server and spawned in vehicles just because it's could be a pain to repair and then secure vehicles for the event.

I've been thinking of something along these lines but I don't really have the means to do it. So if anyone wants a crack at it, have at it. My thoughts on the event: A loop around the map with checkpoints manned by judges who potentially shoot at drivers with a makarov just for added drama Participants can pick from any dayz ground vehicle (multiples of same vehicle is okay) Drivers can pick their own path to the checkpoints. Time of day and course should be chosen for their scenic quality Offer various balanced loadouts of gear (1 tire, 1 engine, or 2 tires, 1 scrap etc) Drivers and navigator get shotguns, toolboxes, bandages, two cans of food and soda (no blood bags) Navigator gets GPS Drivers can ram each other and deploy tank traps but shooting other racers is forbidden "Police" that would try to stop racers in their given zone "Camera" men would be deployed around the map and in choppers. Winner is last man standing or first to complete course. Awesome admins Spectate tools Pretty big scale. It would probably need a private server, lots of streams, and real world prizes but it could probably be done on any scale just for fun. A lot of testing would need to be done beforehand to make sure it's balanced and fun. If I could pull this off I would. Oh, I wanted to call it The Pinto Bean Run.

DayZcommander will do it but I'm not sure if they host the file as well. I can't get any type of response from arma2,com at all. If and when that comes back up, you can go to http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php and pick exactly the beta patch you want. Download, and then just run it. It'll handle the rest.
