I think there should be quite common Ghillie suited Zombies carrying L85's, NVG's, a map, compass and matches. Or maybe not.

Not sure when it can happen but i think we need a big squad to check out Green Mountain, preferably at night. I meant to do it before but Real Life got in the way.

I just assume i washed up on the beach after a hard night on a billionaire's yacht partying with gorgeous girls and Roman Abramovich. But that's just me.

I used to be a Winchester boy, but the Enfield is s beast!

I'm just throwing this idea out there - i realise things like this probably cant be added to mods but it COULD be an option in a standalone. I understand Rocket wants to implement Dogs into the game, to be a pet of sorts, possibly helping you out and needing to be fed etc etc...i am not too sure of the details. How about the chance of finding cowering survivors (eg children) that can be optionally asked to follow you. The child wouldnt be able to do anything apart from follow, be told to wait and having the need to be fed. I dont want to see children capable of using weapons. Having someone to protect and keep safe would certainly add a new dynamic to the game. I realise the implications of this - would a sniper shoot a weaponless child, would it affect the games rating etc. Just want to put the idea out there and see what people think, or indeed if they have other similar ideas.

Yeah to be honest kids are probably a bit too risky. Cant wait for the dogs.

Is there still global chat on some servers?

Call me stupid but how is going offline going to help the situation with an online game?

Did you hear the one about the player with the broken leg? My brother's friend's sisters's mates' uncle said there is a player who either pretends or has a broken leg and so goes around crawling everywhere asking anyone for help. The moment someone comes to help and begins administering morphine the bastard drops a grenade at their feet and blows them both up. True story.

Nice thread The Groovemaster - go to coast and stick your gun in new spawns faces. Make them dance or die. Give a small gift if they dance well. Death if not. Black Knight - Stand on a bridge with an axe and demand that "None Shall Pass!" unless they defeat you in melee combat. Night Rider (from Mad Max) - get a car and drive around the map screaming "I am the Nightrider. I'm a fuel injected suicide machine. I am the rocker, I am the roller, I am the out-of-controller!"

I agree and i only suggest because some people may want an option whereby you could look after something (be it a dog, child or old granny). The majority of players wouldnt care but i think the more options the better. You could set up an orphanage in Cherno and feed them beans. I just think it would be cool to look down the scope and see a survivor with small child in tow. I really think it would make me question shooting the guy.

I think Rocket plans to do something along these lines. Weapon degradation and the like so that you have to look after your choice of Z killing machine.

good one

Crawling around for seven hours isnt the sort of thing i am into. I think an option to put a bullet in your head would suffice. Not too keen on the being eaten alive option. I could jump from a tall building i suppose. What a morbid discussion.

Man, reading this thread is hard work. I really like the idea of the Respawn being activated in times of trouble (ie: debug forest or if you have a fracture) Last night i was wandering around when i spied a deer stand. Being fully armed and geared up (and a bit too confident and cocky) i just rolled in with the idea of headshotting the three or so Zeds. Little did i know that there was a small building nearby that also spawned Zeds. Soon i had 7 screeching terrors racing at me. I took down 5 but the sixth once hit me once and broke my leg. Not having morphine i crawled to the deer stand and decided my fate. I couldnt be bothered to crawl or wait and i would have Respawned if i didnt have a frag grenade on me. I waited for the Zeds to Respawn and then climbed down the ladder to aggro them all towards me. Once surrounded i dropped the frag grenade at my feet and blew us all to kingdom come. My point - if i didnt have the grenade or a Respawn button what would i have done? I suppose i could have let the Zeds eat me - but is this a viable suicide option, to be eaten alive?

Good luck to you. I shall keep my eye out for you and your Merry men.

I've had one for days and have resisted the urge to drink it even when thirsty. Its my good luck charm. I just know the moment i drink it i will hear a pfffffffffffffffffftttttttttttttt............You Are Dead.

True, but i think the fact that if you WANTED to you could show others your intentions were friendly. Whether they believe you or not is another matter. And i just want to roll as priest to be honest. Dealing out justice with my Holy Enfield.

If there are more skins available you could use a particular skin to indicate whether you want everyone to perceive you as Friendly or not. It could quickly become common knowledge via these forums that a particular clothing type is indicative of a Friendly player. For example a Police skin could show others that you are Friendly and wont shoot on sight. However, bandits could also use these skins to be sneaky bastards. All skins should be optional and not forced on a player through their gamestyle. The more variety and options we have the better.

Dont go to Green Mountain - you wont leave that forsaken place alive.

Raiding the NW Airfield with an axe? What a hero.

I must be living in a parallel universe or something because i do not see mass PvP deathmatches. In all my recent Respawns i have found it quite easy to get geared up. Now, i am not saying i am the Chuck Norris of Day Z but c'mon, is the game that hard at the moment? Bandits are a necessity in this game - Dayz without bandits is like men without BALLS.

You know what - in all the time i have been playing DayZ, some 3 months, i have yet to come across a hacker. Have i just jinxed myself?

What about a board game?

Nice one - the deaf Zeds were getting to me a little. Now night time wont be like you are the Invisible Man. Only one problem i can see (but is easily rectified) is that some times i do Server Hop at the start of my session so i get a Day time server (being only able to play after work at night time in Australia means i have to play on US servers). If ALL servers had their GMT or UTC timezone stamped on them this problem would disappear in a hurry. Go Wallabies!
