dying of dehydration causes you to fall unconsicous indeffinately. Unless you got a firend to IV you there's no cure other than a respawn. Learn't this the hard way, that bag of rice sounded like a good idea at the time!

Found a my first lornhorn the other day, thats with 500+ hrs. Never fired it and dropped it soon after in favor of a mosin.

Took a couple of weeks to learn the new north, but i know almost exactly where i am within 5 mins of spawning 90% of the time these days, When the re-introduced the southern spawns I still remembered where i was from my Mod days, i tend to use the DAYZTV map purely to scout the decent buildings in the new unfamiliar villages.

CPU limited?

I use the train tracks just south of your route as my path back and forth to NWAF and beyond.

perhaps some way of negating the clothing benefits we see in game specific for the bow and crossbow? Although i also like only being able to medicate with pliers and bandage.

Im no expert on this stuff, but im pretty sure it shouldn't take this long to get to where we are, and with this number of bugs. For me this is a prime reason why early access doesn't work for the public; as it removes the motivation from the developers to invest the money they've already made in development. If i was sitting in a Bohemia boardroom, i'd see i've made my money on this little title and be really reluctant to continue to fund its development beyond the bare mimimum needed to keep the playerbase happy. Which is why i suspect that even after 2million+ copies sold its still running on a skeleton team. I also suspect the only reason its ALLOWED to toodle through its development is out of some kind of misplaced loyalty to Dean himself. I think once he's out the way you might see development go no further, with team re-prioritsed to polish the game as it stands. What I ultimately think you'll see is the game released this time next year after Dean goes at Xmas, ultimately missing half the stuff promised, the rest following with paid DLC - its the only way its financially viable because every minute Dean spends fucking around with the game its money taken being eaten into, 3-4 years worth of development costs a fortune even with a small team. Once released though They'll almost immediately announce the DLC and a few months later DayZ2. But this time DAYZ2 will be created in 6 months from bang to buck, because they'll have no basis of requesting early access this time and will proove how quickly DAYZ could have been be created in the first placed. Hell it wouldn;t supprise me if Bohemia don't already have a person locked away in a dark cupboard speccing out DayZ2.

It needs to be item based suicide so its not abused to get a better spawn. This way you at least need to spend fives minutes finding a melee or gun.

You clearly forgot to tell them, because you know what SVD stands for? Snayperskaya Vintovka sistem'y Dragunova Or Dragunov Sniper rifle system

I gave up looting the corpses of those i killed when i was equiped with everything i needed to survive. a Mosin.

But then everyone was given a limited edition tank for their efforts, and no players paid any money. We were testers in the purest form and rewarded for our work.

On persistent servers every item is stored in the db. Which means every item will have been given a unique identifier (its a requirement of a db). Why then is the system simply not checking if the item ID exists before being displayed? They've got to considering this already if they intend on limiting the number of SVDs (for example) that are globally available

Generally want non military and vintage guns added. Kar98's, hunting and varmint rifles. But if they're keeping the M4, then adding the M16 as an alternate spawn at crashsites would be good and fulfil the DMR demand with its single/burst restriction. As mentioned the SVD would also be good, it should be the only way to acquire the PSO-1 too, choosing to then scrap the SVD and equip on a AK would be the users choice. When they introduce vehicles i'd like to see a non-scoped PTRS added too for balance, but you'd need to be prone to use it.

Rocket wants people roaming around different servers, he's gone almost as far as suggesting he wants to encourage server hopping to keep the servers equally populated. The central loot system, if done properly will be excellent. Hopefully the items will be so rare, actually finding someone who holds such an advantage will be minimal. It'll also affects vehicles, he's already said there wont be enough parts on any one server to get a vehicle working. So you'll HAVE to move around different servers to collect all the parts together. The goal is to create waves of rumours and tales of servers spawning different loots or actually having a working vehicle which in turn will draw a crowd of people trying to steal/destroy it to recover the parts for their own server. This targeted aggression towards an individual of group will make sure vehicles are never abused blatantly, no more low-riding through towns drawing attention to yourselves! My only concern is the cheaters, they have access to some pretty trick stuff, the most abusive being the 3d item radars, one run through a town or base and not only have you identified every player and item worth taking, but gives you distinct advantage in looting and finding peoples stashes especially once you've been BE is doing a good job, despite what you think, you just need to look at the detection reports on all "these" forums to see that. But bans seem to be delayed 24-48hrs and the amount of damage that can be done in that time is huge. Some cheater wont think anything of pumping daddies CC into steam to if he can guarantee to find himself some super rare loot, vehicle, your tent or someone carrying something rare. What we really need to do, is replicate a system that rewards your chance of finding these rare items the longer you've been playing, so a new account has zero chance of finding one, while a account thats 50hr+ old has the full chance of finding one. EDIT: Another issue is, what happens when Bob finds his SVD, logs off and gets insta-gibbed by a bus on his way to work? will him carrying that SVD in the DB eat into the allocation of all SVD's that will spawn globally, because it wont be long before all these globally managed guns are eaten up by dormant accounts.

I think 2 body shots with the crossbow, and 1 with the bow should be enough to KOS simply to balance out the negatives of putting up with their limitations and lengthy crafting time.

Might aswell drop these two tents i've been hoofing around waiting for .49 and go have some fun at call of berezino.

naturally im a little dissapointed all the hard work i've stuck in staying alive for months on end, legitimately searching for days on end for high end loot will all be made redundant. Another win for the cheaters it seems.

Stick > knife > sharpened stick > chicken feather > arrow And if you haven't found a gun while trying to find any of the above then god help you!

I think its just to emulate the effect of light in your eyes or light blindness

The Mosin will lose the LRS and wont be in the sniper rifle "category" anymore The CR will gain the hunting scope or LRS and be your mid end sniper rifle. The SVD will fill the high end The low end will be filled with a dedicated varmint rifle using 5.56. Remember the damage system will change in future making clothes and items less damage reflecting making all rifles more deadly regardless of calibre.

Dont panic if you see your player at the menu, its just reading the local player file from your account, it'll ovewrite with his player when he joins for the first time.

he will have your keybinds however, if you both keep them default this shouldn't be a problem. The alternative is to make him his own windows user, so it'll save keybinds local to that windows account.

Logs into his own account on steam, with his own purchased version of Dayz, when he logs in he'll have a unique GUID and new character, you can change between the two accounts easy enough keeping both characters.

It good that weapons are rare. But what you think those dropped weapons you finding are there for? you've just been clearing pre-looted areas! That being said i found a 101 almost 5 minutes from spawning in the ATC north of Svelto
