Dumb as a sack of rocks.

If you seriously think the heroes of Chernarus are going to combat coastline bandits, ghosters, server hoppers and combat loggers by shooting them with non-lethal rounds and handcuffing them, you're a fucking tool. Who in their right mind would shoot an asshole with non-lethal rounds so you can ask them nicely to stop shooting freshspawns.

Then what happens when you break your leg?

For the record, I've heard Dean talk about urination and defecation. I'm not a fan of the idea, though I'm willing to trust that it wouldn't be terrible if implicated.

Not dying is a great way to avoid spending 30minutes running. I quite like DayZ without the vehicles actually. And the thermal scopes. And powerful modern sniper rifles......

How about fuck no. +1 for better zombies, including better AIs and Kevlar zombies being physically better protected (and maybe slower?), but this idea is better left for L4D2 and other zombie games that are designed not to be realistic. How in the hell would a soldier be bitten or otherwise infected, die and come back to life and still have their weapon, draw their weapon, make sure it is ready to fire, aim, and fire even one round at anything. Even a barn wall. Goddamn....

I would say it sounds feasible to have a simple system, like being dazed upon being shot. Urinating, defecating and the addition of cholera are far more interesting than all these little details people are suggesting IMO. They should take precedence. You can spend a lifetime trying to add all these little things and it will just get harder and harder.

I watched something from E3 2013 iirc where Dean described how in reality most attachments would not fit on most guns, so for the sake of gameplay they were made far more compatible. Here is my idea. There are specific attachments for specific weapons, but you could use hacksaws and duct tape and other items to modify these attachments to work on other guns. This would damage them (Pristine to Worn, Worn to Damaged, etc), so you could get an Acog quite frequently, and modify it to work on your gun, but getting a Pristine Acog that was originally compatible with your gun would be far harder and so worth more. [Also to clarify, I'm talking about different assault rifles, as opposed to putting PU scopes on an M4].

What is the status of duping and empty respawns with tents after server restarts, and does this also happen with vehicles?

...Except that many of the threads are about fav weapons and stories of killing people. Many of them are about low tier weapons killing similarly equipped people, but I expect this has to do with the life expectancy and the sorts of people inclined to brag about this sort of thing. There are quite a few of those sorts of threads, but the real bandits are in your base killing your dudes. YouTube: Sacriel42 OshiSeven DaSquirrelNuts Fhrope And the many more non-YouTubers who just play the game in their preferred style.

Someone ban this guy. How many capslock/ranting threads has this guy made in the last 5 minutes about the same fricking thing.

...and the moon is made of cheese. Congratulations, this is stupid. I can't see why the devs would be going out of their way to go to so many servers at all times of day to throw people into the oceans and spawn arma crates. That just doesn't make any sense. What makes more sense is the presence of hundreds of retarded script kiddies who love griefing everyone for some inexplicable reason. Yeah, you were unfortunately thrown in the ocean by some prepubescent reject, get over it. Don't get attached to your gear, and the break might do you good. Cool the fuck down.

Umm.. I was under the impression that having your primary out at the time helped, but I don't know why or if things have changed. Anyone else?

Not a bad idea, but there are a load of server admins. Bump I guess.

This is a little redundant. With a little persistance, you could have found it before any of us replied. Really..?

INO umadbro? *12yo trollface* The L85 is kinda wallhack, but I don't have any reall objection to it staying, so long as removing the duping/hacking decreases the frequency. I really don't see how this is important, or even a good idea. It really is just feeding your desire to kill the fresh off the coast of electro.

Just run a few hundred metres through wilderness and you'll find one, not a problem. I don't see how bait would help. Too time consuming, not worth the invent space. How would it work? How would it be coded? Is this really the most important think the devs should work on now. This game is in/close to beta, and there are rampant hackers and glitches galore. Rocket has an epic vision for this game and is trying to produce the characteristics that make this game what it is. Bait is pretty low on the list.

I think the player base is accelerating. How long from 900k to 1M?

And dude, this isn't the sims. Get your ass in NWA nao.

Hey guys, I think we need to take him seriously. He pulled this from dictionary.com. GG. Oh wait, Merriam Webster: 1. An outlaw who lives by plunder; especially: a member of a band of marauders. 2. Robber. 3. An enemy plane. I imagine 1 and maybe 2 fits the bill quite nicely. If a script kiddie spawns a jet, is he a bandit?

Give them to fresh spawns.

As Fraggle said, this is one of the old answers to this problem, and it does attract alot of these sorts of threads because it seems so obvious and sensible. It may be, there may be unforseen problems, but could we please cut down on these threads.

Why don't people check the wiki? This has been known for quite some time, and is frequently mentioned on these forums. Its at the top of the page for the tent on DayZWiki. You won't get your stuff back unless there is some sort of glitch, but I haven't heard anything like that so don't hold your breath. Sincerely, an ex-lurker.
