My suggestions 4 dayz (what I hope standalone dayz to be) As whole i would like to see dayz as really challenging game - as you survive you should feel satisfied. When i was first reading about dayz before i start playing i saw something written like "can u survive dayz?" – that works like magnet. After playing for like 3 weeks i find no challenge in finding all the stuff i need plus some nice weapons. I just know that games where u get everything easy are dead shortly. Zombies should be a real threat. They should be deadly dangerous. Only way to kill them is to destroy they brain. U can hit them cut they hands legs, made them crawl but only way to kill them should be about their head (Max Brooks) Game mechanics should be made so People don’t even think about running alone into a town get what they need and run away. I know its not easy to balance deadly zombies with arma mechanics but I’m sure dayz need to be rly hard. I think advanced weapon attachments should be taken out of the game – I mean thermal, night vision scopes. I love the the realistic feel of dayz, and lest face it - u wont get nightvision googles when it will come to zombie invasion;) Im pointing this coz I have seen tons of this stuff on different serers. Night gameplay is so kickass when it comes to atmosphere and light management. Light effects are realy great. Playing at night is so intense, I haven’t seen it in any other games, unlimited night vision is simply destroying this. (my idea is to drastically limit number of nv googles, made them use some sort of batteries, maybe remove totally – point is to try to make players play in the darkness. Limit stetting time by the server settings I had some toughts too about putting some threat in to the woods, (btw. Zombies shouldn’t be so hooked to the buildings I mean wandering zombie hordes and also single ones) but about woods I mean some animals, wolfs maybe, bears, and maybe their zombie versions. thats it 4 now, cheers
