Consolidated Weapons/Equipment suggestions
A.Williams replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
If possible the standalone should have spawns all over the map but are limited to outside a set radius from other players and survivor bases Random gear and outfits should also be there when you spawn and if possible a basic back story like "you where a soldier who was sent to evacuate people and control the outbreak" or "you where an average jo who headed for the hills when the outbreak started" Skills that you start with, improve and learn if you find a relivant book or see players proform the skill enough times and guns require practice to shoot acurately but are still reasonably acurate on the first shots -

Are you planning to get an xbox standalone server? -
If they add a currency in the game it would make it unrealistic, trade and barter would be better and if most players spend too long away from players they have nervous breakdowns and other problems but a small few should be able to cope and can only be fixed by spending time with players or with dogs Also most survivor avatars should have shock or somtjing like that the first few times they kill but some who where ex-soldiers and the like before the zombies came whould just get on with it

There could be an old ww2 aircraft grave yard that you could fine usable parts and repair aircraft

After ww2 some british bases in the desert (im not sure where) burryed siptfires and lancasters in their crates just in case another war started

Underground Exploring / Cave System / Mine
A.Williams replied to SteveMac555's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Tunnels should be near zombie free but be very dark and dangerous withount many supplys but areas surounding cave/mine entrances are high in supplys and zombies but there could be some that are very old mines in the hills with nothing but shels of buildings left and some remote caves could have costal entraces that you can hide small boats in -
Underground Exploring / Cave System / Mine
A.Williams replied to SteveMac555's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I hope supply caches from the size of a toolbox to the size of an oil drum and you are olny able to find it unless ither you buryed it/saw it getting buryed or you have a metal detector and other tools or if possible in the first fewdays after it being buryed a shalow pile of dirt is above the cache but once the time is up the pile of dirt goes away leaving nothing behind then the only way to find it is to go within a metre of the spot where it is a equip a shovel or entrenching tool and select the option of dig/dig for supplys or latreen or to bury somthing like a cache or a mine which stays visible always but only just -
Ideas for Hunting/New Equipment for Standalone
A.Williams replied to TIC's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
A bow or spear would work as a weapon and fishing rods could take up space as a primary just as the flash liht acts as a primary -
Caravans in game should only be enterabe as buildings when unhiched and rvs should have seating opitons in the seats and maning the windows so that the rv in theory should be as un glichy as a normal car because it would be just like a car but with a large capasity in storage and people space

If you plan on using the xbox standalone when it comes out I might join when the xbox version comes out -
Shooting system for the standalone
A.Williams replied to Blobmaster's topic in New Player Discussion
Guns should auto-aim if they are within a metre or two of you and your gun is already aiming within a 2 foot radiout of their torso. The reason I think this is a good idea is because in real life if you have the pleasure of owning a gun (I don't) you would automaticaly aim at someone infront of you if they atacked you. But in game if you have a zombie jumpout you ave to react then aim then shoot -
All cars in game should have the option of shooting secondary's out of windows on no scope and not from driver seat, This would add realism to the game and make cars more valuable to the extent where rarity is fair because if your in a car going quickly down a road and a small group shoots at you taking out the tyres immobilising the car forcing you to have to get out with full exposure to enemy fire when in real life you could just shoot a hand gun through the window or even a folding stock rifle like the ak kobra

What should our next competition be?
A.Williams replied to mattlightfoot's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Would there be a prize like a custom skin or a weapon of their choice added to the game -
Empty mags should stay in inventory then if you find a re-loading kit for that type of bullet you could have one size fits all primers and propellant for bullets and by going into a building usually residential mostly rural and find a re-loading bench where provided you had the materials with you or found in a draw (if in furniture storage is added) wether spawned there possibly or left there for storage by someone who had no use for them. Flint-lock / precision cap muskets , black powder musket style shotgun and pistols should be added and have a one size fits all black powder mag that loads 10-20 shots or takes all types of bullet for the class of weapon (pistol caliber for pistos and rifle/shotgun for muskets and shows re-loading of the weapon (this would have to be rare because if it was common no one would stand a chance against zombies) Also swords/battle axes for non gun weapons

Is there going to be an Xbox version of the standalone?
A.Williams posted a topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Xbox would make it more accessible and make voice chat more used than text -
Is there going to be an Xbox version of the standalone?
A.Williams replied to A.Williams's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
If the Xbox version had the graphic quality as the mod and say 20 to a server at a time with a same sized map that only loads when someone is there to see it -
Temperature and weather having an effect on player would be great but if I could choose to change one thing with the game it would be more variety in fire methods and other survival orientated things say adding air rifles to the game which are as powerful as a crow bar unless you get a head shot but ammo comes in 500 pellet tins that count as a mag but an be split into mags of 100 max so if a whole team has more than one rifle or they don't whant to take all their ammo with them they can split it up
-
I think there should be more semi-auto rifles than auto rifles in residential but still some as dead police and military would have dropped them along with some more hunting weapons then military ones because why in a game where leaver action and bolt action rifles appear to have been legal for the civilians town before the zombies came so why not some semi-auto hunting rifles and some single shots to make more variety to the game e.g.rather than finding a automatic rifle in a residential or rural spawn you find a double barrel shotgun or a civilian rifle

You want some more progress screenshots of DayZ Standalone?
A.Williams replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
I hope wood stoves in the standalone could be used like stationary camp fires (light,warmth and cooking food) but more efficient and another thing I'm hoping for is trailers and caravans that are un-enterable when hitched to a car but when un-hitched act like a non-armoured shack with storage space that is only assessable when un-hitched. -

A.Williams replied to baseboy8798@msn.com's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
What map is it and do the admins want a friendly survivor to do some of the non-admin powers needed admin work? -
Caravans would be better because when hitched they act like trailers but when unhitched they act like enterable sheds theft have the same amount of strength as a wire fence so are fragile but the inside has heating so is warmer has lights if you operate the generator and has toilet and water tank that's fills 20 or so canteens and when in building mode storage is still assessable. I do hope this is in the standalone as RVs could break down but caravans could be left as buildings till hitched up to any half decent car but there could also be if the makers of dayz can do it the game could have some of those half tent caravans that could lack alot of storage space but would be smaller to hide

Each inventory slot of duck tape could be a one use item and if you have a player your kidnapping he/she walks up to you selects duck tape player option and then player does a bandaging motion and the player is restrained and gaged for 2 hours In game time and if you sight out the timer continues because a rag doll of you appears in your place that can be killed bandaged and looted while your signed out and your player can be fed by the kidnappers while restrained also
