This is a good way of getting your game banned (or R rated), especially in Australia!!

Since Rocket has said the Zombies are in fact Infected the scenario you suggest has merit

I understand your concerns but i think you may be playing the wrong game. Rocket wants to screw with our heads not let us have fun. Who would be having fun in a Zombie Apocalypse? Snipers maybe?

If you break a leg you should have to find a wheel chair and go around in that. This magical morphine that fixes broken bones isnt realistic.

Does anyone know if camo gear actually helps with lowering the visibility of nearby Zeds, or is it merely cosmetic at the moment?

Rocket has stated already that he is thinking about the idea of equipment possibly breaking when you are shot etc.

If you want to keep an area "safe" then barbed wire would be the way to go. But, yes i think some people do it becasue they are..how to put it....KNOBS!

Molotovs - oh yeah!! DC issues - i dont think it is fully effective yet

Yet another tantrum about no weapon spawning? **YAWN**

I havent found a crashed heli since i started playing weeks ago in 1.5.7.

You have to be in the right spot but yes, with a toolbox, you can cut through them.

Jesus - not only can we fix and fly Huey helicopters, fix and repair cars, give blood transfusions, fix broken legs with a single injection and hit a bobbing Zed head from 500m with a sniper rifle - now we can single handedly fix power generators. No wonder we survived the Zombie Apocalypse - we are frigging brilliant. We must be Chuck Norris.

I think once you start having Saves in this game it changes the dynamics completely. Death should strike fear into the player - that disappears once you can go back 5 minutes to a previous save and start again. If you could Save pretty soon you will have all the best weapons, vehicles and gear. After that what would be the point? To be honest i dont even like the idea of being able to get your equipment back once you die in the current DayZ format - running back and looting you old characters body or having your mates grab your stuff. Turns Perma death into semi-perma death. I can see single player being an option in the future, however. Lets just hope it doesnt get dumbed down too much for the masses.

I just love the way you can "fill" your blood back up with month old dodgy blood from a hospital roof.

+1 Yes!

I like it. Otherwise Zeds would aggro at any old sound. A sound should make them curious but not blood thirsty bat shit.

I've been a few times and been sniped twice and had one straight up gunfight where we both died at the same time.

Possibly in a later, near release version perhaps.

I think Rocket's idea is along similar lines where you have groups of Survivors, Lone wolves and bandit parties (solo or groups). Rebuilt, fortified areas, cabins in woods that sort of thing. A long way off but defintely a good idea.

I thought they were immune and just in the kitchen waiting for the menfolk!

I generally head straight for a barn unless i spawn right near Elecktro/Cherno then i try and have a little peak.

Its just Rocket jumping in to do a little play testing.

I think finding things which elaborate what the hell happened may be introduced later on in development. But secret military bunkers etc would be cool to find. Dont know about skill books, magazines however. I havent learnt much from "Guns and Ammo and Babes Weekly" or "How to Administer Blood Monthly" let alone "How To Build a Huey Quarterly" Finding food trucks, Coke vans, ambulances would be cool, but they would be more random finds like crashed helicopter sites rather than finding a note. More variety is good however.

Its supposed simulate the fact you've just had the shit beaten out of you or been shot. Who are you, Chuck Norris?

Farting - thats how the Zeds easily spot us all. The beans, man, its the beans!
