Killed by Zombies? Why not respawn... as a Zombie?
wtfosaurus replied to knawx's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
The problem with this is that it becomes to easy to exploit if you have a clan for example you could scout ahead etc. Also form what we know the 'zombies' in the game are living people infected with a virus not re-animated from the dead. -
Rocket mentioned in his ama(I believe) that 1.7.3 will be playable at gamescom. Or at least with dogs. Also it will be running on the Virtual Reality engine which is the engine for Arma 2, Arma 3, Operation Flashpoint etc.

Hey guys, As a lot of you know I run survivedayz.com where we host forums for any specific server who wishes to apply. To build up some of our user-base we are going to be giving away 5 copies of the DayZ Standalone on its release day. The contest is starting today and you can read the rules here. If you want to register for our forums you can go here and if you would like to sign your server up (providing you are the admin) for a free forum make sure you make a post here. Best of luck -wtfosaurus

They will be using at least 1 map called chernarus plus, which I assume will rely heavily on the layout of chernarus. you can read about it in Rocket's AMA.
-
The reason this isn't appropriate for this game is because it would be abused too easily. You could tell your friends/teammates where he was-thus giving away his position and it really does no benefit to you where the shot came from, you were hit, you died, the end.
-
Would be nice if they could implement this into the game, although what if it is a friend and you are just being careless? that should affect your humanity as well...
-
I think this would be better implemented without skills, as said above, but maybe a book you can find in a residential spawn can help identify them. This still accomplishes what you want, without the need for a skill system.

Win a copy of the DayZ Standalone
wtfosaurus replied to wtfosaurus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah I figured it would be something people would be interested in and it would help build our community over at SurviveDayZ.com Seeing how the turnout goes I may add some more prizes into the mix. If I do I'll announce them here, in this thread :) -
Yeah, that would be really awesome, especially for the guys who make the fan videos!
-
what? there is absolutely no reason for this to be implemented.

Some ideas i have for reducing Camping bandits
wtfosaurus replied to Davidentity's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I'm also in favor of anti-lethal weapons, it would give more player control over the whole bandit situation, which wouldn't necessarily be punished, it owuld be completely up to the playerbase -
Making your character in the Standalone
wtfosaurus replied to redfield-77's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
This is the kind of customization that I think rocket is trying to go after with the standalone, I would also love to see this. -
Rocket mentioned today in his ama that he wants to implement this as well as weapon degradation.
-
All of those things that you mentioned rocket is very aware of, if you want to read his AMA, he covers all of those things. I like the tent idea, there are already other tent models in the game, pretty much everything else was mentioned in the AMA
-
Rocket mentioned today in his Reddit AMA that he is adding animals to the game.
-
Have you guys seen Sword Art Online? Or Oculus Rift
wtfosaurus replied to NeoTechni's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Rocket mentioned today that he'd love to be able to implement Oculus Rift for use with the game today on Reddit's AMA. I would also love to see this! -
I know that rocket wants to implement things like weapon customization etc later down the road, what that entails -who knows at this point. I do know that an AS50 TWS would be ridiculously overpowered. but if it was hard to acquire then maybe there would be room in the game for it.

I'd like to see save outposts with FF:OFF added to DayZ
wtfosaurus replied to Gr33n (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
the only 'safe zones' in the game should be player created ones. I know there are trading servers where things like this are enforced, like Freeside Trading Co. But you will not see the dev team implementing 'safe houses' where the friendly fire is turned off. -
Player Punishment Ratio Unacceptable
wtfosaurus replied to billybobbonner's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
For a 'game developer' you seem to be pretty unaware of how alpha's work, Let alone mods. If you are unhappy with your experiences as a game tester(because thats what we all are) my suggestion would be to not play a free mod and put your time and energy somewhere else. -
Kamenka is my favorite place to spawn, there are three deer stands just barely to the north that will give you good weapons then you can head down to Cherno. That and no one seems to want to spawn there so your survival rate is obviously a lot higher as well. But maybe you should keep spawning at Cherno and Elektro to be sniper bait so no one take my weapons out of the stands :)

Remove livestock/animals/raw meat from the game
wtfosaurus replied to porkyham's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
It would punish solo players that rely on gaining blood from meat. I don't think this helps more than it hurts -
I personally dont think we should start with anything at all. except the clothes on our back. everything we find would start to have that much more value to it.

Should the new standalone have bosses and dungeons?
wtfosaurus replied to Darky1307's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
this game is not wow, no raids, bosses, skills, levels etc. -
Your body should disappear after death
wtfosaurus replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I think the other thread where your corpse would turn into a zombie would eliminate this problem. by the time you got to it, it would have moved on its own. -
Yeah I like this idea, being able to loot your own corpse is broken in a hardcore survival sim anyway, I think this is something that could be implemented well into the standalone. Also, the fact that the zombie would look like a player with a bag and such may scare other players quite a bit.
