There's gotta be a lot less military guns/loot and more civilian/hunting guns/loot

Yeah but that is one of the problems rocket looks at when he wants to add some features, people say you would act quickly in danger situations, some won't so he doesn't know how long to make scripted animations in different situations, the same goes with banditry, some people is just cold like you said, but he has to generalize it, he can't put in what would happen to him after killing 10 people because what would happen is that your character would suicide, so he needs to generalize things, he needs to look at thing in an objective way, like "what would a regular joe do in this situation" everybody would react differently, he said in an interview and I kinda quote (I don't remember the exact words but it goes lke this) "I don't know what to do with these things, maybe I should just put an aptitude test when you first launch the game, so your character would act the way you would *laughs*"

It's not as bad as combat logging, but it is still bad, after all it was your bad decision surrounding yourself in the coffe shop, I would have killed some of them with my pistol and try to run through them

They don't have to go "Old mountain hermit" kind of crazy, they can star hallucinating and start thinking they are gods, not every killer goes crazy, because they were either crazy when they started killing people pointlessly or they were caught by the authorities before going crazy, but look at bin laden, maybe he wasn't nuts after all, but he was paranoid, knowing that almost everybody wants you dead must make you go nuts, he didn't even go outside to his yard, he was so crazy that he thought that having a hostage would get him out of being killed/caught by the US army, of course, nobody would go crazy killing enemies in the army, it is kill or be killed, and I won't feel guilty for killing somebody that was trying to kill me, after all I was keeping myself alive.

are you seriously telling me that you could kill a bunch of people and have no guilt about it? You must be a terrorist That is true, but he's complaining because when he kills people in self defense, he still loses humanity and gets the bandit skin, which in my opinion would be solved by adding the savior/avenger system from bf3, which is basically if you kill an enemy that is suppresing an ally you would get a savior bonus because he is in the "player X is suppresing player Z" state, so he's doing damage to somebody and if player X dies while suppresing/damaging player Z (on DayZ), the killer (It could be Player Z) of player X won't lose humanity although if player X was a survivor it would be added to the murders count and if player X was a bandit it should add to the bandit kill count, and the avenger bonus is when player X is still in the "Player X killed Player Z" state, that lasts a few seconds although considering DayZ isn't a fast paced shooter, it should last about half hour, maybe more, so if Player X kills Player Z and then Player Y kills Player X within half hour since the death of Player Z, Player Y won't lose humanity, ofc you should get into bandit state after the first pointless kill, but you shouldn't get the bandit skin right away, considering the bandit skins are still in DayZ foundation, you should get it after -3k humanity (?) cause you can still be threatened by a player even tho he isn't damaging/suppresing you, he can be lining his shot up or reloading his gun so you can kill people before they shoot you, that's why the bandit skin is a problem now, people think you're an asshat, but you were just returning fire, so since there is no savior/avenger bonus on this game, and you get the bandit skin on -0 humanity, you can get it pretty easily.

Dude, the bandit skins are there cause they can't make you hallucinate, in real life you would go nuts after killing 10 dudes for no good reason, so the only way of making it so that there some kind of consequent for that is having a bandit skin, since the game cannot make you hallucinate irl, you have the damn skin so people know you're a killer, this shouldn't be like this, maybe they should do some kind of hallucination effect after your 15th kill (?) like maybe having your character saying stupid stuff every once in a while or maybe seeing people/zombies that aren't really there or something like that

Ohh god no please! that would take away a lot of realism. And yes daytime only servers are stupid, I get what mr nasty is saying, but it's just so immersive to play at night, and during the night is when you get that scary feeling the game supposedly has, during the day, since zombies are so easily lost, it is like a playground to me, I personally would love it if they took NVGs out because it would be even more amazing to play at night, or at least make them have batteries that you would have to charge or something, I only use NVGs when I'm in cities or when I hear bad things around me (players, not zombies) whitout NVGs on you get so immersed in the game, you guys should try it

This has already been said but not confirmed, and how it's going to be if it actually goes trough, you would find ammo, and you'd need mags to use it.

nope

no they're not, the SAW one shots zombies and the m249 doesn't

^^^^^ WTF?

is it the m249 SAW or is it just the m249?

It doesn't matter if you have the best rig in the world, you might still get bad fps if you don't have the right settings, that PC should run a little bit better, but you gotta play around with the settings, also make sure you're playing on servers with low PING. Also I would consider overclocking the cpu if you keep getting bad fps issues

First question: Soft Copy Second question: Hopefully Third question: From What I heard, Rocket wants to implement character customization but up to a certain level, like a skyrim type customization in the first part. I didn't provide links cause I can't remember in what thread I read that but all that was said by rocket, he haven't said anything about ragdol animations but that would be amazing

lol

It isn't a rumor, Rocket said, they will do it for PC, then port it to mac, then if it was very successfull he'll make a casual version for console, but in my opinion it wouldn't have so much success in consoles, it won't have near the same feel, the map would have to be the size of cherno and servers with 24 people, maybe less, it would be boring for casual gamers and disappointing for DayZ fans that can't afford a PC

get a gtx 660 if you can, and maybe a better cpu too, idk much about amd processors so I can't tell you what cpu to get, but I think nvidia gpus work better with intel cpus

it's not gay if the sausages are in different barbecues

get an asus motherboard, a corsair psu and you don't need an ssd and if you don't have de mony, don't dowgrade the other stuff just to get an ssd.... Ohh and if you can you might want to buy it at tigerdirect.com

He said that 30 $ would be the final price but at release it will be around 15-20 $

I thought golden revolvers did spawn, a friend of mine was farming the barracks in the nwaf and one golden revolver spawned

Tweak the video settings, look for videos on youtube, play on servers with low PING

I actually think that for the sake of making the game harder, there should be a lot more guns, a lot less military grade equipment (Including rangefinders, NVGs, and yes all of the guns like make only 2 military grade assault rifles, like only the ak-74 and the an-94, maybe even make the only sniper rifle be the dragunov) and a lot more civilian equipment, a lot civilian/hunting weapons that use different ammo types, so maybe the ammo won't be as rare, but it will still be hard to find the right kind of ammo for your gun Actually to prevent server hopping/ghosting/al-f4ing, they only need to make it so you can't disconect inside towns/buildings if you alt-f4 your character would just stay still/dies not only in the cities, a player can alt-f4 in the woods if they find somebody And if you built a base, they wouldn't be able to ghost in there, since that base would only be in the server you built it in. And I think the best way to prevent ghosting/server hopping, is to just have different characters for each server, like if it was a private hive But anyways I think they should only implement these things when the hacker are pretty rare since you could save your 2 weeks worth of looting and gearing up by alt-f4ing if a hacker kills everybody

Well the helicopter nose up/down can be graduated if you control it's movement with the mouse

ArmA. Or he could have set up DayZ mod and another mods on single player
