I have played/enjoyed DayZ for years now, always being free. So dropping 30 bucks was not a problem at all. My only concern is I am not experiencing any real gameplay change from the old mod. Rocket claims to have rewritten everything, but I am not sensing that at all as I play the new SA (outside the new GUI/inventory/avatar clothing changes)...my fear is this thing is nothing more than a stripped apart ArmaII mod that is packaged up. :(

Most of us played a mod called Epoch. It was pretty bas ass. :D

There are 2 types of people - those that server hop, and those that lie and say they do not server hop. :D

Until you can set waypoints like dayzmod the ingame map is useless anyway. Just use the map provided on the web.

Content.

You could do it, it's possible. But a lot of voluntary action/roleplay would need to be involved. Sounds pretty stupid to be honest, but hey, someone people are into guns, other people are into...well..LOL

lol now this thead is getting somewhere!!

They are bored. Let's all be honest here, what else is there to do in the game atm once your geared (which is pathically easy)? lol

here is my CZ455 Lux with a 6x24x50 mounted. I call it the "Squirrel testicle remover" :D

Great ideas and I think maybe you should head a team and build a new game. You could flesh out a lot of these ideas in a turn by turn based game to start with, just to make it easier to test the concepts etc :D Dayz is heading more down the lines to Call of Duty lol :(

X2 The only thing someone ever says to me is "GET DOWN OR I WILL SHOOT YOU" or they say nothoing and shoot me instantly lol I think in all my campaigns I have ran into one guy who was decent and we traded food for water etc. Server hoppers kill me the most. There is just no defense for it. Sucks. 2-3 guys spawning instantly right next to you lol :(

It would be completely different. X100 Agree 100% The ONLY time people would turn is when food got REALLY low. Watch the movie "The Road". One of my favorites and a GREAT answer to this topic.

Not against other players with high cal guns. Your gonna die hard and fast. Againts animals most certainly yes! Againts zombies, maybe. I still would prefer a 9mm in that situation! Againts humans with larger cal = no! :D

Crossbows in dayz mod were fun. But they were no match for assault rifles. Players pwn you hard and fast...and you had to be really close to zombies for them to be affective. I just dont see if as an option with the horribly bugged AI we currently have in SA.... And Daryl Dixon is a fag. If it were a real SHTF walking dead, his dumb redneck ass would be carrying a gun and not a Dicks Sporting Goods xbow lol

As many as possible.

yeah you canot really add more spawn (config) until whats in place is fixed. it would be like adding more crap to another pile of crap LOL

roaming hordes. after the AI is completely redone though. right now its complete sh$t lol

I agree x10 But truth be told, if you remove fully auto assault rifles you lose everyone playing under the age of 21....LOL Dean has to pay the bills.... :(

a group prob just server hopped into you. it happens. :(

it would be the weapon of choice for killing boars/cow/sheep/rabbit in dayz sa no doubt. those were the 4 animals that were in dayzmod if i recall. far as zombie and human hunting, let's all be honest here. noone is going to use a 22 cal gun over a 9mm+ lol

climb up some of the towers in cherno and practice head shotting zombies from different ranges. It's zero'd in at around 100+- yards. Meaning you can aim right off the iron sights up to 100 and not have to make any adjustments.

My thoughts - people are bored. It's too easy to fully gear up atm. Zombie AI is horrible. What else is there to do really besides server hop and snipe people?? I don't support it, but I can't blame them. :(

X10 Fully auto assault rifles should be RARE RARE RARE. The point is to survice. This is a SHTF scenario. Not a Rambo Commando gay ass frag arena....there is no faster way to lose your player base than to arm everyone with a fully auto assault rifle...lol
