He can still remove it across all servers during the testing stages and see what results because of it. Social experiment if you will. When he removes it he should use it to gauge public opinion but more importantly how it affects in game combat.

The RV engine is the worst engine ever made.
gibonez replied to EchelonEffect's topic in General Discussion
You know nothing jon snow. Frostbite can render just as much as dayz engine. -
Reason the ruger is there is because it has become iconic. When someone thinks .22lr they usually think of two weapons and they are both made by a ruger. The 1022 has been the most popular 1022 in the world since the 1960s. It is easy to imagine that such a cheap readily available gun would have made it into chenarus. The amount of 1022s circulating the world is just insane.

True. Remove third person view servers and the players would complain for about a week. After about a week they would just join first person view servers and play and guess what the gameplay would be better for it. Let us not forget this glorious video.

DayZ SA - Initial Thoughts - Will it ever live up to it's potential?
gibonez replied to Timma (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
It wont had they released a year ago, and had the full might and support of Bohemia interactive then yea it would eventually live up to its potential. Problem is more competent better funded teams are making dayz "clones" that already in its early stages are better than dayz ever was. Rust in its super early stage already has so many of dayz future planned features, while nether already provides a much better experience than dayz in its early stages. Competition wont stop with those 2 either only a matter of time before even bigger studios start to cash in and make this genre meet its full potential. -
Why do people think there would be more civilian weapons than military?
gibonez replied to captainvette2112's topic in General Discussion
No m14 of any kind has any place in Dayz man. It's a 1200 dollar weapon in its basic configuration then its even more unrealistic to expect a accutirised version of it since the glass alone for it costs upwards of 1000 dollars not to mention new stock and bipod. Highly unrealistic for a 3k dollar rare American war relic that is highly desirable in the west to show up in Chenarus. Now the spr aka a 5.56 nato sub 1 moa ar15 i can definitely see . Very popular hunting rifle among hunters. Ar10s however are rare . -
Pretty much In the us you can buy such an outfit for a mere 30 dollars online. I would imagine it would be much cheaper if it was closer to you. The clothing would make excellent hunting attire.

First person only players need to band together
gibonez replied to Dagwood's topic in General Discussion
Yea we need to band together. We need to band together to make other see the light to enlighten the devs as to why it is for the better good to remove Third person view. -
fast and highly observant zombies are bad for the game
gibonez replied to Antiklimax's topic in General Discussion
I wish the zombies in Dayz took the Gorge Romero approach to zombies. Zombies are never the big threat in his movies, they are just in the background always providing a constant steady pressure on the survivors. The real threat is always people because humans by nature cannot be trusted. -

gibonez replied to captainvette2112's topic in General Discussion
That is actually a great idea. I would vote for balota being turned into a civlian airport. If helicopters ever make it in a Civilian news chopper there and no military weapons or loot instead civilian loot. -
Server hop and your character dies.

Joining as Group - How it can lead to a better game

Terrible idea . -

gibonez replied to captainvette2112's topic in General Discussion
People just dont want to see stupid weapons that would make absolutely no sense given the region. Weapons such as DMRs m110s ebrs As 50s m107s Fn scars ACRs- 97 replies

How will flying work? Simulator or Arcade?
gibonez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
We'll how did they find the book ? Even if they had found such a book how would they have the knowledge to fix and repair a broken down helicopter. Fuel such a helicopter with the special fuel helicopters need and more importantly what survivor in the right state of mind would actually attempt to fly the helicopter. Helicopters within dayz if it continues to follow a realistic approach simply do not fit in any shape or form. -

gibonez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
Thats the thing you dont respawn. Your character dies he is dead forever. When you "respawn" its a completely new character fresh entirely new experience. -

gibonez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
Dayz mod was open ended. Stand Alone seems to be a taking a more realistic approach. In such an approach there would surely perhaps be a helicopter or 2 in game but there be no logistics to get it up and running much less in the air. -

gibonez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
Hopefully we never find out and they never include helicopters. Kinda idiotic to think a rag tag group of survivors would not only be able to pilot a helicopter but also provide maintenance. They should keep motor vehicles and manual forms of transportation such as bicycles. No choppers. -
Silencers do not change the ballistics in any weapon. All it does is trap escaping gas, bullet travels at the same speed with the same trajectory regardless of it having a silencer or not.
-
Luckily the game does not take place in Iraq right ?
-
Currently in game can the silencer work with any gun does it have restrictions like current real life silencers. Would be nice if for example a .22 caliber silencer would work with .223 and 5.56 caliber weapons in game same applies to .30 cal silencers working with 7.62 nato, .308 win, 300 win mag and maybe 7.62 x 39.
-
Yup combat and the game is made more interesting, nobody can cheat by peeking around corners or cover. People still get to see their character get gear and progress. EVeryone WINS!!
-
Ooo god yes. Beautiful thing about ACe is also that nothing holds you back in ace sniping. No silly restrictions on how far you can attempt shots at it all comes down to skill and how much elevation an optic can achieve. Mount an optic on a ruger 1022 for example and you can crank out the elevation as far as you can and if lucky and have the skill you can hit 500-600m targets.
-
Fine then allow third person view but lock the camera in front of you so you cant peek around corners or over cover but can still admire your character. Like so.
-
Sometimes tough decisions need to be made for people even when they don't want it done. Similar to a child refusing to get vaccinated because they are afraid of needles but its for their own good. Same thing with TPV its for our own good to remove it. Rust already saw the flaws of tpv and removed it.
-
Unfortunately with the current way sniping works in arma and dayz not enough.
