One character per server would also fix the problem and countless other bigger problems.

One inherent bonus if such a move is that it sets the standard and influences how the game will be played. It will persuade over time for the community to self eliminate third person view as it will be seen as a subpar perspective filled with tons of negative gameplay implications. Smart move if this goes through.

It will not ruin the game anymore than helicopters will. Survival game turning more and more into just Arma lite. Would have been nice if there was a very clear difference between the franchises.

Wait till they add helos. Something else that makes zero sense.

Forced free aim + no crosshair is the best solution imo. Would make hip firing past 10 feet pretty useless as it should be.

Private hive should be the only hive. Other survival games realized this, dayz needs to also.

I hope spraying your gun comes with reliability issues. Can't imagine hastily spraying your gun out in the field would do any good to the guns moving parts.

If anything hopefully this tank somehow makes them revisit the cold war setting in Arma 4.

This just makes me sad there isn't one of these beasts in Arma 3. As for a t72 or any armored tank in Dayz I surely hope not. It would be kinda stupid for a survival game.

They could also do what they did in some of the Dayz mod servers . Disable third person view when crouched or prone. This tiny fix would solve 99 percent of the issues.

Then its time to ignore what people want or not want. force it and test it and see how it positively or negatively affects gameplay.

It does not disappear but it might as well be since it would mean the same to you and me. The pure numerically impossibility to consistently find these stores of food means it might as well have vanished. Just because it does not disappear does not mean you will ever find it, thus it might as well be gone. From a pure realism standpoint finding one of these hoarders stashes would happen once maybe throughout your career playing the game.

Yea removing all of the silly easy mode things would be nice. Crosshair needs to go too.

A massive volcanic event sure can. As for abundance sure but it does not mean availability. What good is tons of food going to do for you if you cannot find it due to artificial scarcity done due to looting. You really misunderstand how fragile the food network is in the world. Food is perishable and even tiny short disruptions in the food chain result in extreme rarirty in food That is how shelves look prior to a snow storm. The few actually obtain the food meanwhile the vast majority do not. Same thing would happen in dayz food would not be abundant since it would largely remain unavailable after all the looting in the early days of the incident.

The road is a far more realistic representation of a post apocalyptic event. People truly don't understand how scarce everything would be one has to remember that while things don't magically disappear people tend to hoard and quickly loot mass quantities of supplies thus creating an artificial shortage. Take a look at any grocery store before a natural disaster or major storm. Few people go in and hoard leaving the shelves bare and those that come after with little to no supplies. Same would happen in Dayz panic would set and the few would create an artificial shortage of supplies leaving what findable supplies to be extremely scarce while they hide huge stores of supplies for themselves.

I hope they can also somehow work out ratioed times. For example other games have a ratio of 3:1 day to night cycles. So nights are shorter than days.

real problem is the crappy public server system. 1 server 1 character.

Sounds like it is working then. Hopefully eventually the loot system is so random that you can't enter a home with even a slight inclination as to what to expect inside.

Why not just spawn with a random variation. Each life you get you randomly get stuck with a stance or variation.

Really do hope we they get rid of the magical 100m zeroing on the scopes that are not weapon/ ammo specific. Mil/MOA elevation adjustments would make long range shooting more skillful and at the same time allow for more player control. The easymode aspects of the game including the gunplay need to be eliminated.

Third person view.

They could simply just remove all fall damage for the first 20 minutes to 1 hour of a players life and the problem will be over. Remove the option to commit suicide also. This would greatly reduce the abuse of the system. With no drawbacks.

Player should have absolutely zero control over where they spawn a group system would render some control. So NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Any imbecile can fire a rifle or do basic car maintenance. Military rifles are built that way. Flying aircraft however ahaha no way in hell.

Not enough of a difference to merit it. It is not that inherently different from using bursts in full auto. Handling, ballistics and muzzle velocity the really important things would be 95 percent the same as the m4.
