Mod like this, but with dinosaurs!
Strategos (DayZ) replied to codeine's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I envisage a wave of copycat mods / games, aliens, dinosaurs, vampires you name it. -
Yeah when you start a new character maybe a supernatural voice could tell you you are the reincarnation of another survivor and whisper the name of the guy that killed you in your ear. Your mission is then to avenge that person you never met.
-
Not again. Psychopaths don't by definition have empathy. They don't feel remorse or guilt. In short killers are likely to be the ones least likely to experience the symptoms you are discussing.

I agree actually. Much as I like running around with my Bizon, Barret GPS etc. This "end game" play just leads to all the douches you get camping cherno with sniper rifles. At this point surviving is easy and there is little challenge to be found aside from hunting players. I think the game needs to be a constant battle for survival. Rarer guns and ammo. Harder hunting, more danger etc. The first part of the game is the most fun , if that feeling could be extended the game would be better for It I think. If the very act of surviving was harder people would have more reason to team up and less time to PK as well.

Need less guns and ammo not more.

Psychosis? "Did you hear that?"
Strategos (DayZ) replied to StealthyBrayden's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
God I hate these ideas they keep coming back over and over. You cant predict how someone will react mentally. Food, hunger, bleeding, tiredness , Illness, these are universal physical , predictable. But psychology is not. What about the psychopathic people that would enjoy killing ? What about the people that would become inured to it and not be affected any more ? The human psyche is amazingly tough and adaptable. Don't tell me what's going on in my characters brain. I get scared playing the game , I get paranoid, i don't need to be told that. If the game tries to enforce my mental state it just breaks my immersion. -

Slot Capacities For Weapons
Strategos (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Different weapons need different slot sizes I agree. A Barret and a Bizon taking the same slot space is ridiculous. -
Petition to spawn with a weapon!

No gun. Get rid of the rucksack as well. Make torch not use a gun slot. -
Pro vs Con - My List of Balanced Mechanics
Strategos (DayZ) replied to combatcomm1's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
big negatory on 1 and 2 ambivalent about 3 -
I think you should have two different modes, or a sliding scale. If you are standing still you throw pretty much as it is now. If you are running you throw without slowing but its wildly inaccurate. If you are walking its somewhere in between.

My Good Suggestions List and discussion.
Strategos (DayZ) replied to Strategos (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I don't think binocs need adjusting, but the current system where hatchets and torches must replace primary and secondary weapons isn't ideal. Edit: Added a few new suggestions and adjusted bug list. -
Lol also its 19k i edited my post a nano second after I posted saw I had added a nought. New someone would bloody copy and paste it. 1% , 19k. And I mean ONLY because I know its major attention and conceivably could get alot more than 19k coming our way. Can DayZ handle it right now though ? I dont know.

If only 1% of their subscribers try DayZ that's 19,000 players....

Where is it ? I cant find it .

Why I love DayZ, right here:
Strategos (DayZ) replied to SupWithThat's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Fantastic, I was considering capturing some noobs for exactly this lol -
No competent player should die
Strategos (DayZ) replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Makes immature post calling people idiots. Complains that people calling him an idiot are immature. Claims he wants a challenge killing people that are trying not to die. Snipes noobs who present no challenge "for fun". lol -
The longer i survive, the less i play
Strategos (DayZ) replied to Regiee's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
lol so true. I made a big post a while back about how Dayz is two different games completely at odds with each other. I actually think the game is much more enjoyable when you are starting out. But once I have the good gear that's it I live in the woods like a tramp sometimes I don't even want to log on lol -
No competent player should die
Strategos (DayZ) replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
"Well not as idiotic as the ones who're getting shot, clearly." I disagree. -
No competent player should die
Strategos (DayZ) replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
"For the last 3 days I've been camping cherno and elektro with an AS50, I don't go into the cities, nor do I loot kills. I just shoot idiots, 45 and counting." I posit that you are the idiot. -
What DayZ Can Learn From Literature
Strategos (DayZ) replied to wrobel's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I can think of a few things you DIDN'T pick up from all those books.... -
remove broken bones from game
Strategos (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Id go with more variety myself. Rocket is making your bones break less often so maybe that will cheer you up ? Id like to see sprains as well, that make you limp, or force you to walk until you take... painkillers perhaps. -
I see things getting a bit ugly in the announcements forum lol I've got no issue with Rocket having a break, doing whatever he wants, it's his party after all. It just seems a bit strange that we have total radio silence suddenly. Is there any official word on what's going on ? Just a "Oh Rockets not around but he'll be back soon?" Something ? Anything ? I see the server ticket system has been implemented... so stuff is happening ....
