HERBERT-THETREE

Dont think ive seen this before, but in terms of this i think most people would run in lock the hatch and wait until they could log out.

Agree with this though Id also like to see morphine used as a form of pain killer, with temporary effects. -you are right i am not one of "you" although i walk like "you" i am superior. :)

Deffinetly original, but have you considered that the high PvP areas would change? after all theyre not set in stone, they are determined by the players, so i think its possible that people may start avoiding the places that are forced 1st person to maintain the 3rd person advantage. just a thought

I believe you may be missing the intended purpose of this game. The devs and rocket have said they want realism, therefore the unrealistic features of other games are irrelevant.

Pretty sure the Devs already plan on addressing this for SA not sure what their plans are for the mod, but as far as making them partialy transparent i think that might would work, but would probobly ad a significant load on the computer.

Very true, but like i said i like the idea, i just think if it were implemented in the SA they should make it similar to repairing cars/helicopters. On a side note i wasnt trying to shoot down your idea, i just like giving people as much info on things as possible so that they understand things arent as easy as they may seem. Many people on this site i have found have a "stretched" view of reality, they think everything is simple and easy. (Not talking about you, you seem fine)

With the existance of third person (which i support) i think it could easily be exploited much like in other games

Deffinetly not "very easy" think about it, the wind would be pushing you into the heli so when you jump its going to be hard to clear the rotar blades due to the resistance. Plus for the pilots getting the door open would be near impossible. And no i doupt they could just climb in back. Helicopters are not very spacious.

actually surviving a helicopter crash is one of those things that doesnt happen a lot. If it were shot down or crashed into a tree most of the crew would most likely die. Given it shouldnt explode but in turms or realism living should be the rare occasion. Also parachuting out of the side of a helicopter is somthing people dont do for safety reasons. Helicopter crews dont fly with parachutes because in the event that helicopter does go down jumping out would likely put you into the rotar blades. in short, jumping out of a falling helicopter=dead parachute or not

Basicly thats just what players are called, It sounds better though. Just think of unique player as player, theres really no difference.

i like the idea, but theres a problem. when you fire the weapon the primer is spent, meaning it cant be used again. plus theres the issue of power (not big problem). also most people dont have the tools nor the knowledge to use them to accomplish this. You have to measure out the correct amount of powder, too little and the bullet doesnt have enough velocity to be effective, too much and the weapon could explode. The biggest issue here is of course the primers, i dont know if its possible to recycle/repair old primers but i know if its been used you have to replace it if you reload your shells. Like i mention before certain tools are required for example a press, die and shell plate. plus the knowlegde to use them, this isnt something you can just figure out as you go ( doing so could kill you)

Deffinetly agree with that to some extent, Ive actualy used it to navigate when lost, (once) very time consuming. but i think it would be best if it only showed up upon spawning just so you dont end up wandering off into the wilderness in the direction of nothing.

Chernaurus is based on a region of the world. but what your talking about...would be cool to see and play...but its a bit big, Thats a lot of things devs will have to design not to mention, loot spawning, zombies, weather. Its just too big.

I was playing Dayz last night on a random public server. I was comming up on Elektro from the north, on sniper hill, figured i might find somone sniping there, no luck. So i decided to take a chance with the super market. I didnt have anything nice, patrol pack some food, bandages and an enfield. As i arrived at the super market i hear a heli off in the distance. i quickly grab some of the stuff and rush to the back door to wait for the heli, with intent on shooting at it. when it comes into sight, before i can get a shot off, i hear gun fire. it sounded like total war between the heli and some guys over by the hospital. To get a better view i move to the school building nearby and watch the chopper do circles around the city while the two groups exchange fire. Finaly bored i figured i would join in and started unloading my enfield at the pilot. Now im not sure if i got him or the other group did, but when he died the others in the heli all jumped out, while i picked them off the chopper crashed right in the street in front of the hospital. killing most of the other group. when i got over there the two survivors were blood bagging each other, (i think) i took advantage of that and shot them both. i wasnt able to check all the bodies due to the number of zombies but i got a DMR a cayote. most of the tools, and NVG's. Unfortunatly some guy got me from behind as i made my daring escape into the hills.

If i wasnt geared up id kill him and take his stuff, if i was geared up, id kill him and take what i needed. No shame in admiting the truth.

Really like this idea. considering there are many different types of ammunition in the world, so why wouldnt you find different ammo.

Thats good but even still that brings up the issue of what do you call common? If you mean less common blood types in RL then most people would end up with O+ anyway thus creating problems for a reletivly small amount of people. I like the idea of different blood types i just see it as becoming more of a nuisance

your stats are off, most people are O blood type

I dont think sleep is a good idea i would much rather play the game, not sit for 5 hours with the game running while the character sleeps, and yes you would most likely have to sit for some hours since the game time is linked to real time and they cant speed it up for one person and not the rest. As for the other i can agree with all that, but i know all of those have been mentioned a lot in the past. The only problem i see with bood type is how would your blood type be determined ( would you pick it, or would the game choose at random?)

"Should rocket wait for next gen consoles or simply publish dayz or risk by publishing it on current consoles that might be dated?" lol in what way is this a yes or no question? becuase it starts with "Should rocket..."? no...just no

I agree that some of these would be cool to see. I think a lot of it would be unecessary and could clutter the game a bit. For example the solar power i like the idea but i dont think it belongs in dayz mainly because in dayz people arent setting up makshift towns for people to live and try to prosper again. The other thing i would like to mention is the "anvil" and "extra weapons." The thing about the anvil is i just dont see its value, i dont know what you would make with an anvil that would be usful, mabey you could hammer scrapmetal into plates to make Bullet RESISTANT plates? other than that i just dont see it. As for the weapons things like: bows, metal poles, spears, knives (Daggers) and bats yea i see that being feasible but the throwing knives, tomahawk, ballista, mortar, hammer, flail, and sling-shot; these seem a bit over the top to me. Why would i build a ballista? To tear down a barn? it just doesnt have a purpose, throwing knives and tomahawks arent something i think you would see much mainly because thoughs have more value as a hatchet and knives. (The hatchet in dayz is an axe not a hatchet, if you dont believe me look it up) Plus theres the added factor of the ability to throw them accuratly, despite the fact that it can be done you have to consider who can do it, most people cant even throw a knife into the dirt not to mention a "tomahawk" as for the mortar, i fear this could easily be over used and over powered plus theres the added problem of ammunition. The sling-shot, i admit i have seen people kill small game with them and i have personaly be hit by one and it hurts like hell but as for a practical use for this, i see none realisticly if you should somone with one your probobly not going to injure them but instead piss them off. A two handed hammer i could see but the biggest problem with that is that dayz is primarily based around firearms not melee weapons so in carring it you would be at a huge disadvantage. lastley a flail isnt something i think you would ever find in this environment and again the usfullness of melee weapons is little. Sorry if it sounds like im being an asshole it wasnt intended that way.

My first death i had been alive a few days and couldnt find food so i went to the supermarket in cherno where i passed out and died from starvation just outside the back door to the market.

i havent had any issues like this with the hatchet. Not saying there not true, i just havent had the problem of being to close or being hit after killing them

you cant get banned unless you hack the items in yourself. If you have a hacked in weapon such as the as50 TWS, you might get server banned by the admin but not global.

did you just run the installer or did you move the files after like your supposed to? If thats not the problem then i have no idea what RFT is...srry
