3rd person view is like playing with wallhack ;P

A bomber jacket should provide some kind of protection against rain imo, also you would wear something beneath the bomber jacket, Dayz doesn't allow wearing clothes beneath other clothes but I didn't see anybody wearing just a bomber jacket and anything under it irl. Right now if you are wearing waterproof clothes is ok but if not is like if you were naked. I dunno I don't see the fun in needing to make a campfire each 10 mins of gameplay in raining days, if you are wearing starting clothes that's ok but better clothes should give you more protection against the rain imo. In some garages/barns you can make fires in others you can't. I think you should be able to make fires anywhere like before, if the place burns who cares? P.D You don't need to be an asshole when someone has a different opinion than yours.

I think you get hypothermia really fast even with good equipment, I was wearing a motorbike helmet, hunter pants (brown), a bomber jacket and gloves, that should give you a some protection against rain, like 2 mins after I left the fireplace (I was hot and dry) I was already socked and got hypothermia really fast. It would be nice if we could make fires inside garages, barns, etc even inside apartments like before.

I agree with the apples, the quantity of apples you get from a tree should be limited or the ability to retrieve apples from apple trees removed completely. Some apple trees should have no apples at all. Same for berries. Planting something in a garden grows to quickly too, like 10-15 mins. Zombies are spawning fresh kiwis also :P I don't really know about fishing right now but some time ago was too easy to obtain as many fish as you wanted. Food resources shouldn't be unlimited.

Yes, Your health and blood will drop quite fast, some flames on screen and loud screams would help knowing you are burning other than "your face is melting" message.

Robbery is a great addition to the game, but I think most bandits like to kill players more than getting his loot. I totally agree and understand Psychonaut_78, when you kill a bandit you like to have his gear, and see that all is ruined after kinda sucks. I like bandits and dumb bandits even more, I think Dayz would be really boring without them.

I like the new changes, I've heard they are going to distribute even more the military loot, I think that's a good thing for keeping the players moving around the map. I never liked it going to NW Airfield and Myshkino tents, some players are complaining about the "coast whatever" but I think the killing is even dumber in NW Airfield and Myshkino tents, most players just go there for doing PvP or camp the place all day long until they die, then repeat, I never had a friendly interaction there, on the other hand I had plenty on the coast, some times I joined with some players and headed inland together afterwards.

I think gear gets ruined too easy also and should be tuned down. I think bandits doesn't really care if the gear of the players they kill gets ruined, they are gonna kill anyway, some of them, mostly NW airfield and Myshkino campers, just kill players and don't even loot them, I guess because they are afraid of being killed by another camper. Others kills fresh spawns, surely not for their loot.

I used a Fishing Rod I found near a wooden boat, attached some worms to it, and went to Electro's beach, I didn't tried in a pond. The fishing was going as normal, "there is some movement near the bait" and then a red message "Something has just bit the bait", then I pulled out and "I have caught the fish!" message appeared but I got no fish in my inventory. Then I tried again with the same result. The two "I have caught the fish!" messages weren't consecutive, I got one message the first try and another the second try.

Well at the end I got no real fish, just the message that I got fish :P

I used an improvised knife for worms today and it worked, I did it at the Electro beach next to the water, then I tried to catch some fish in the sea, the message "you catch the fish" appeared twice but the fish didn't appeared in my bag pack.

I think the quantity of ammo is fine, today after 5 hours or so of playing I had plenty of it, I just have been in Electro, Staroye, Msta and Shakhovka, I ended with 2 boxes of 9mm, 2 boxes of .380, 1 box of ACP, 2 boxes of 4.45, 2 boxes of 3.08 Winchester, 2 Gauge Buckshot and a 15Rnd Mag for the PM74 RAK. As for weapons I ended with one 1911 with one mag, one LongHorn and one Blaze 95, I found plenty more weapons that I dropped or didn't take, MP-133 Shotgun, IZH-43 Shotgun, PM73RAK, SKS, IZH 18 Rifle and a Repeater and 3 or 4 pistols. I stored some weapons in a barrel in experimental but the barrel was gone when I rejoined the server a few hours later, I guess I was playing in one of the Exp servers with the persistence off. I think if you are able to store ammo and weapons and there is bikes, motorbikes and cars there will not take so much time going to your camp for storing things, when all of this works fine I would like to see the quantity of ammo and weapons reduced even more.

ty!

All Exp. Servers are down right?

A sleeping position while login out would be cool.

It was raining and stopped, I was cold so I made a fire for warming up and cook some meat until I was hot, when I finished it started raining again, I was 1 km away from NW aiport, when I arrived I was already dying from hypothermia, not 10 mins had passed, I looted for a bit and then I ran in a hurry just outside the airport walls for making a fire, while I was doing it I died. I think this should take longer, I was well equipped highly hydrated and energized, it took just 10/15 mins from being hot to dying of cold, in days where it rains a lot it is tedious needing to make a fire each 10 mins of gameplay.

Hi, It would be awesome to have some modular ramps and walls for Basebuilding so you can walk on top of walls for looking around your base, Watch Towers are cool but it would be nice if Watchtowers can be connected to walk able walls, so you don't need to climb the stairs all the way down and climb up again for going from one watch tower to another, this way it would be much easier to keep an eye on possible hostiles around your base. Here is a quick example I made, with the 4 pieces on the right you could create walls for your Base, every piece could be placed alone and it won't be floating or look weird, the pieces wouldn't be stack able so you wouldn't be able to create high rises. With a few more pieces players would be able to create more complex shapes. Also some corners like those would help keeping watch over the outer side of the walls:

It's been like 8 years seeing the same barns all over Chernarus, I would like those barns to be removed and replaced with new ones :) Some barns like that ones would be nice:

Some times combat in Dayz is slow paced and a player can log off quickly (30 secs) for avoiding the fight. Also I think when a player is logging off, the count should reset after every hit on the player, I've seen videos where a logging off player was being hit by players and the player who was logging off just disappeared.

Naval Action has a very good queue system in my opinion, when you are playing for a while and you lose connection for whatever reason, crash, internet disconnection, etc, the queue system gives you preference over players who are trying to enter the server at that moment and were not playing in it before, it gives you preference as long as you are connecting to the same server you were playing. A system like that would be nice for Dayz imo :P

You will not be knocked out because being hit by punches if you are wearing a motorbike helmet, I haven't tried the other masks/helmets that covers your face but maybe it prevents it also.

Nice status report!!! :D Very good to hear you are working on new vehicle simulation/physics, I hope it somewhat resembles Richard Burns Rally, Rfactor or Iracing physics, the bests and most reallistic car sims out there for me :P Very good to hear you are working in the possibility of having well hidden bases in the forests also :D Keep up the awesome work, you are creating a huge game :)

It will be still possible to clear an area of infected? The system will be "the same" as before but with more zombies where the server keeps the track of all infected but instead of spawning zombies at all times zombies will only spawn if close to players? I hope it makes sense :P

In the beginning the game generated empty cans after eating a can of beans for example but I think they removed it for improving performance. There are already some useless clothes like the medical scrubs or tracksuits that only have 2 slots and almost nobody uses it. It would be nice if this kind of cloth would be given randomly when the character spawns, for example tracksuit jacket and pants would be the same as the jeans we have now (4 slots).
