Looking through these Threads you come to realise that a lot are duplicated. As well as this, some of the ideas are plain dumb (some of mine included, in hindsight), some aren’t feasible, while some are based on selfish reasons (ie: make the Zeds aggro less). Below I have come up with the 10 “best” suggestions. These aren’t necessarily my favourites, just the thread topics that seem to have garnered the most threads, support or response. In no particular order: 1) Able to drink from source, be it a well pump or lake. 2) Incorporate some dangerous animals in game 3) Have random wandering Zeds in the wilderness (could be large groups wandering also) 4) Ability to create/modify areas for fortification 5) Have multiple skins to choose from/find 6) More variety of Zeds (old/young, male/female, fast/slow etc) 7) Combating DC issues by having a timer where body remains in game for a while 8) Random spawns like the current heli crashes (finding military posts, broken ambulances etc) 9) Molotov cocktails 10) Incorporate radios This list is by no means complete and was produced by looking back over the thread topics etc. I didnt look at every thread, but there did seem to be duplications of the same topics over and over. I also didn’t add the ideas that seem to split the community – giving weapons on spawn and being able to identify bandits etc. Feel free to add, modify this list – like I said I don’t necessarily agree with all of these suggestions, but we seem to be getting the same old things brought up time and again. I do realise that this thread itself is a duplication. :P

I thought that too - is it possible to restrict log out indoors?
-
As an option only - you find one you can wear it.

The game isn't hardcore enough.

You are diabetic and have to find insulin every 4 hours -

I like it You also have to find a can opener. -

It was done for realism - so you cant chat to someone 15km away. When they bring radios into the game i am sure some form of Side chat will be implemented, but you'll have to find a radio first.

I'm going to stop playing DayZ
DemonGroover replied to Survivor-Kyle's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Well done! Though i think your heart will always be in Chernarus. -
Massive Game Breaking Problem.
DemonGroover replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I guarantee that it is something on the lines of: You dont have ALL the up to date DayZ files (delete all your old ones, download again) You havent installed the beta correctly (get from BI and install correctly - get instructions on threads in this forum) You are not playing on an up to date, correct server (sometimes even though servers say they are, they arent!) If any of these apply you will be in a world of hurt....like you currently are. Or maybe this is the DC fix Rocket said was coming - it Nukes your game! -
From what i have heard in interviews with Rocket this is kinda the direction he wants to take - eventually. The ability for Survivors (or bandits) to make fortified areas, the option for lone wolf characters to build cabins and for bandits to do whatever it is bandits do. However i think he is going to put the mechanics in place so players can do it if they want to, not build the areas himself. I dont know if NPC patrolled safe zones are the way to go. The game will evolve and i am sure the game will be alot different in a years time.

I sort of agree - if a small hatchet can be placed on the tool belt you should be able to access it and smash it in to a Zeds head. It shouldnt have to replace one of your weapons. However a longer, more powerful, far reaching axe would be cumbersome and take the place of a weapon.
-
I think there should be skins, but they are all entirely optional. For example you want to go around with the bandit skin? Find one and go right ahead. You want to walk around in a soldier uniform, doctors outfit, a bikini - just find the skin and wear it. Skins are one of those things that can have endless possibilities. But i dont think players should be forced to wear a particular skin.

People think server hopping for loot is part of the game
DemonGroover replied to Bluegobln's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Whenever there is a loophole people (fucktards!) will exploit. How can server hopping for gear be stopped? I am sure Rocket and co are working on it. Maybe prevent people from aborting/spawning indoors and make all spawns standing up. That way anyone who server hops in the NW airfield is gonna have a shit tonne of Zeds on his arse as soon as he hops over. This will mean players will have to log out outdoors and have to find a secure location otherwise he will attract nearby Zeds on logging in. It's a tough one. -
wish there was a bandit punishment system...
DemonGroover replied to peewizzle's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
What we need is a chance of Zeds spawning on their arses when they fire their mega loud weapons from 3km away. -
Some non enterable buildings already have loot in front of the doorway.
-
I think the idea is you wake up on the beach with no frigging clue. Otherwise what were you doing? Sunbathing? But who knows really? Thats why i think you should start with a watch and maybe, just maybe a bandage.
-
I dont see the point of the vest pouch - who would swap with it to get less room. Start with no backpack then it becomes a useful item.

As soon as i saw the thread name i started singing "Danger Zone" from Top Gun. "That's right Ice..man, i am dangerous!"

Maybe you have to stand still for 30 seconds
