    Add lens flare to sniper scopes

    because people with lower grade weapons need it harder?

    Uses For Czech Vest Pouches

    the vest pouch could be a tool item that simply expands the backpack you have(and pick up) with 6 slots.. thats probably easier to code and backpacks should not affect movement speed, its bad enough you cant outrun zombies in a conventional way but to have them actually catch up and beat you up would suck, they are hard enough to deal with in open areas as it is

    weapon noise

    so i went into building and found a winchester with 30 rounds, i already had a enfield with 100 rounds so it didnt really appeal to me(havent found alot of ammo for it in general unlike the enfield wich seems to be comparable to trash items in quantity), so i climbed up on a rooftop and took a look around and noticed 2 zombies just loitering near entrance to the supermarket i had planned to raid, i went back down and grabbed the winchester(cause its less noisy and better suited for places with lots of zombies right?) went up on the roof again and picked them both off, but then i noticed zombies over 200m away starting to run and im thinking, crap another player(im usually the one getting killed in pvp situations so i wasnt too happy about it), but i dont see any survivors, i just see zombie after zombie after zombie way out there running like mad.. in my direction!?, the aftermath was around 50 zombies stinking up the place and the vicinity was zombie free for about 10 seconds. now just 5min earlier i fired off the enfield on one zombie that spotted me and even though there were atleast a dozen that i could see within the specified sound range, 2 only a couple of meters away from the zombie i shot noone reacted to it at all. is this related to latest game/mod patches?
  5. 1. can of coke(yesterday when i respawned and lost almost half my blood from thirst before i found a weapon and then a can of coke to drink) 2. aks-74 kobra 3. toolbox(i really dont like it when people put up wire fences and tanktraps just for the hell of it)

    Matches & knives are too rare.

    who runs around with a can of pasta? people trying to survive in a zombie apocalypse? i agree that there should be a limit on how many hatchets can spawn in the same farmhouse/barn or general farm area, its not fun to run 30min to get to a farm and find nothing but a halfdozen or more hatchets and a couple of shotgun shells,
  8. had a similiar experience a few days ago, just as i respawned i met a guy who immediately went to direct chat saying hes friendly and unarmed, please dont shoot, and i tell him im unarmed too so it would be difficult if i wanted to do that, he asks if i want to team up and i say sure so we sneak around the town, pick up a bunch of junk and i managed to find a hatchet, i propose a change in tactics, i position myself facing the entrance of a house while he goes out and aggro zombies(i know i could have done that myself and let him just cower in fear in a corner or something but im lazy), so we do that for about half an hour until we both have a decent ammount of food and drink then we leave the town for a farm some distance away, 30min later we arrive, rush into a farmhouse and i kill the zombies that followed us, look around and found a double barrel wich i didnt want(it sucks for pve compared to hatchet in my opinion) so i tell my good friend that ive spent over an hour playing with that i found a shotgun for him and he asks where, i tell him, he says thanks mate, i say np he goes to get it, comes back and shoot me in the back of the head.

    PvP and PvE servers (with a twist)

    personally i think you should get to choose if you want to be a survivor or bandit right at the start, survivors cant hurt other survivors(except maybeon expert difficulty with some kind of warning then penalty), on lower difficulty survivors can only see the names of other survivors,, and bandits can shoot and be shot by everyone including other bandits, they could have a unique skin, a black trenchcoat to add a little cliché(until they find ghillie suit that is), they dont see the names of anyone, they start with a makarov and 2 clips but no bandage, painkillers or flashlight. survivors with gps could see other survivors with gps and add map markers with a message to alert people of bandits or inform them of awesome loot and a timestamp so you know how old it is, you get a beep when someone adds a marker and there should be a cooldown between adding markers to prevent spam. also bandits should have a little more blood than survivors(25% maybe) and last longer until starvation/dehydration. but survivors shouldnt be allowed to fiddle with other survivors backpacks like they can now since you cant kill them to protect your stash. obviously if such a faction option was implemented you would need to some kind of server protection that prevents survivors from teaming up with bandits and luring out other survivors to get killed by them. also, while i did suggest bandits get a gun right at the start and have more blood and lasts longer without food and water i would be playing survivor mostly

    Blood Regeneration

    you should regenerate blood and become thirsty and hungry at a faster rate during regeneration.. down to say 50% hunger/thirst so you dont regen yourself into starvation/dehydration and have a decent ammount of time to find more food and drinks, you should be able to give yourself blood but as a penalty you could be incapacitated during that time(like being unconscious) as a tradeoff from having someone else do it(so people cant run and insta heal in a fight)

    CryEngine 3 - Possible?

    ive gotten bad framerate in arma2 on 3 generations of computers so far, im starting to consider switching out my graphics card soon and i have no doubt the framerate wont improve, it actually got worse when i reluctantly started to decrease some graphics options, so i would welcome a new engine with open arms.

    Perfect fix to stop logging while in combat

    on occasion i end up dcing back and forth cause the game fails to start correctly or something and i get 2-10 fps in game, and the only thing that helps(that i know of) is restarting the game. so tracking how many dc people do in a short time is gonna bite me in the ass, i agree with the logout timer, 20 secs of not doing more than look around with the mouse and a quick quit button that lets you leave instantly(while your character is still waiting in the game on timer)
