I think there's 2 big things that would address this which, used concurrently, would add a real depth of strategy to the game it's currently missing: Second-Tier Metagame Challenges Character Motivations Click each link to find out more.

Thanks! And I agree with you SgtSnug, maybe not endlessly spawning zombies but they come back quickly and en masse so you need to do what you came to do and get out. It keeps people from camping there since ammo is in short supply. And like I said, couple with humanity rewards for accomplishing character motivations, I think it has potential to increase the inherent depth of the game without resorting to punishing players. It's all about incentivising good play with layers of immersive concepts.

Wow between this and the idea of using the entrenching tool to make barricades, I feel like I"m just scratching the surface of what's possible in this game so far. I got my first vehicle yesterday. Found my first NVG's today and got to play with some of the NATO weapons. I really wanna get up in the chopper...

- How to get vehicles up and running (what the drive-able vehicles look like, what they need, what those parts look like) - How to cook meat (what the animals look like, the tools you need) - What certain landmark buildings look like (hospitals, general stores) Those are things I would have liked to know first starting out or just something handy to have somewhere.

Love the idea of the mountain bikes! +1

Got your NATO weapon? Stocked up on blood and bandages? Got a full pack of ammo? Know your way around the map with your handy compass and map? Got a few friends together? Well it's time to get yourself a tank. Or a plane. Or a boat with a mortar. But you'll need all that stuff I listed above because the place is infested with a hoard of the dead. They just keep coming! I propose a few areas of the map where there's a lot of undead in one place with a quick respawn. Somewhere in the midst of them is a powerful vehicle, gun, even a special defensible location. It takes a coordinated team of well-armed survivors to reach it. There can only be one on the map at any given time and one it breaks or runs out of fuel, it resets. Coupled with my character motivations idea, I think this would really motivate people to leave those starting cities and explore the map and work together.

I was originally against the idea of scrapping them but now that I've turned into one for protecting myself from one, I am FOR scrapping the bandit models until a more robust system is created. I'm all for being able to identify people but until you have time to rework the humanity system to distinguish between defense and deathmatch, let's put it aside and focus on other things.

Yes the Czech Chest Pack holds fewer and when I tried it, I couldn't keep it and my Coyote so I don't see the point.

I like the blood gain from food (especially food you hunt and cook!) but I do agree that the starvation mechanism can be slower than thirst.

I agree that DC is pretty important. I don't know what the limitations of the engine are but Jacobite is on the right track.

I get a permissions error when I try to vote. My vote is No. Currently that's the only indication/implication to being a mass murderer of noobs. If something else were to take the place of de-incentivizing killing newbs in the starter areas, then by all means take away the models.

Ideally I hope to see a change in the zombie running animations which will make them much more realistic. Like pulse said, I don't have a problem with their speed, I have a problem with their juking. Totally breaks immersion right now. That and the fact that they're all marathon sprinters. One of us should have to give out after awhile.

That's a good problem to have!

2 of the servers are running the beta patch and are never even close to full. I think they could easily switch one of them to running the current version.

I'd love to support this mod and its makers somehow. I recognize that there's some hardware issues and lack of servers and I'm sure the devs would love a little thanks for all their hard work. :)
