Spawning should be completely randomized making the gameplay dynamic. If chenarus was an island then coastal spawning would very much work.
-
Getting your gear back after spawning is a tiny tiny part of abusing the respawn system. The important thing about setting up a limited lives per hour system is the way it would lead to more fluid gameplay, how player distribution would be more random and the possible gameplay and lag improvements from people not slamming the servers with new characters.

Yea it's the tiny details that really improve the game.

The future mod of Dayz SA that will become the new SA
gibonez replied to svisketyggeren's topic in General Discussion
That's how things should work. Dying should not be a minor set back but a reset button requiring you to start over. -
Hopefully it just means the dev team is testing new methods of stopping people from exploiting the respawn system. What they really need is a tracker that limits how many lived your account has per hour. Some small number such as 3 where if you die more than those times in an hour you have to wait until the hour is complete. This would not only stop people from abusing the spawn system to get a favorable spawn but would put a lot less stress on the dev servers that control characters and could save tons of bandwidth that could potentially be out right back into improving the playing players experience.

Yea the. 300 win mag is nowhere near as powerful as a 50 cal round. However it does have more legs than the standard hunting and sniper rifles you typically see in games in.308. As for wanting to see dmrs and 50 cals wait for mods. Having these military weapons could potentially spoil the setting and aesthetic the dev team has envisioned. Pretty much such weapons prolly would not gel with the rest.
-
It would be nice it's one of those tiny details that show the care about attention to detail. Just like red Orchestra actually animating the sight at various elevation adjustments even if they might not be 100 percent correct.
-
These are turrets. https://www.gunandgame.com/attachments/scope-jpg.39416 It would replace the silly 100m elevation adjustments that are in dayz and arma and replace them with the real life equivalent. It would make sniping harder but at the same time allow more control. Btw those Winchester sniper weapons you like in breaking point are nothing other than hunting rifles that would seem to fit in to what dayz seems to be aiming at. So as you can see you don't need a railed up tacticool snipaZ rifle to achieve the same results.
-
Probably testing to see if all of the loot spawn locations are working and that loot isn't buried or obscured. Hopefully we get it back to normal levels and finding food weapons and ammo is super challenging.
-
Small play area.... Wait for mods I am sure a mod will turn dayz into a death match eventually.
-
Op don't forget the mosin Nagant incorrectly elevation ranges for up to 300m when in reality it goes all the way to 2000m.
-
Whoever the devs decide to give in to some in the community and allow any sort of control over where you spawn or who you spawn in be it small or large is the moment dayz dies as an idea. The single biggest factor in dayz is not being in control and allowing people control over where to spawn would be atrocious. Hopefully the devs realize this and randomize the spawn system even further and Institute means to disallow people from exploiting the spawn system in any way.

This really made me glad. I am starting to look forward to the games direction more and more. Love how there are little to no plan to cater to the "1337 snip0rs" and thus the weapon list at least in 1.0 is heavily influenced by civilian weapons and or weapons of the region. I am also interested in the comments concerning discouraging long range sniping. I wonder how they would feel about adding mil/moa turrets in game in addition to wind in order to discourage this type of gameplay. At least in this manner people would not want to snipe due to the realism and difficulty and not simply due to the extreme shortage of scoped weapons and or optics. Overall a great q and a.

Seems like a completely different problem all together. One that could be fixed with randomized spawning and limited lives per hour. Making the prospect of committing suicide not a viable option.

Zero need for npcs. Any desire or addition of npcs can happen with modding.

Private Shard Pricing is Outrageous
gibonez replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
It very much is a console statement. Modding ruins games has long been used by the potato defense force to downplay the wonderful world of modding on pc. It's a stupid and idiotic opinion based on ignorance. -

The idiotic console mentality of modding ruins games strikes again. -
Does anyone dislike the "no military stuff" agrument?
gibonez replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion
Sure warz failed as a game and lost its player base due to the lack of military weapons right and not because of how low quality and rushed it was right? -
Does anyone dislike the "no military stuff" agrument?
gibonez replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion
People simply dislike military weapons that are not native to the locale's real life nation state. This is why people love these eastern weapon additions and meet the western obscure weapons with skepticism. -
the bow is terrible at anything longer than melee range
gibonez replied to Hi Im Brad's topic in General Discussion
I can also find 200 black powder muskets surely those are high end too right? There's a reason there's bows and crossbows for sale. It's called recreational hunting you know for fun. Bows and crossbows as weapons against humans are outdated by several hundreds of years -
Private Shard Pricing is Outrageous
gibonez replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Yea let's all get outraged at the prices for servers for an in development incomplete game. I agree that the prices are a load of crap like everyone else but let's be honest opening a private server for an incomplete game like dayz is a waste of time and money. Now if the game is complete and the prices remain at these stupid levels then by all means rage. Or better yet rent Arma 3 epoch, or any of the other dozen dayz clones that surely would be available in the future and completely bypass the prices. -
US clothing, Vests and Backpacks at crashsites
gibonez replied to mizzle420420's topic in Suggestions
I wouldn't mind this. Having all the western clothing and weapons being only found on helicopter wrecks would increase their rarity. -
Carebear huh.
-
That's not how ballistics or weapon accuracy works bud.
-
The should be a pistol slot. Freely moving while accessing you inventory and having to drag and drop the pistol is lame.
