DayZ Community Events in Australia
DemonGroover replied to skitzMACHINE's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Agree - us Aussies/Kiwis miss out on a lot due to us being on the right side of the world. -
For me the two things i want straight away are a hatchet and a bigger backpack. British Assault packs seem all the rage nowadays and can be found quite easily in cities. Hatchets are ideal for zombie killing - there's no finer weapon against the Infected if you want to remain quiet. Once i have that backpack the best weapon i can find for player "interaction" (usually an AKM or Enfield) gets put inside. Then you have time to find a few items (water bottle, matches, knife, map and compass) and you are good to go anywhere you like. Oh, and antibiotics, don't forget those.

A Plea To The Devs For Law And Order in Dayz SA
DemonGroover replied to freeman83's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
If players were limited to one username only then i could see a bounty hunting system working out. It would have to be player driven though - a player wants a bandit dead he could leave a message somewhere or set up shop and give out bounties. A bounty hunter could roam the land and hunt down bandits for a payment - who knows? Bandits would become infamous due to their deeds and heroes would be (well, heroes) due to theirs. However, i am no fan of the capture and tie up suggestion. What could be worse than being captured and kept hostage forever in a game? -
One Thing People Aren't Excited About in the Standalone
DemonGroover replied to JustThatEpic's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Anyone seen Escape From New York? That's what Utes should be, one big bad ass prison island. -
New player just can't get into this game...
DemonGroover replied to Invrlose's topic in New Player Discussion
Yep it is hard and i can understand your frustrations but do give it some time. There isnt really a game out there like this. The mod is getting there and the Standalone will be coming out soon. One thing i always keep in mind as i die from a bastard sniper or bleed out from a lack of bandages is - its the apocalypse, it wasn't meant to be easy. -
You have your answer - we don't know. We can go around and around discussing why and when we think but it doesn't matter because we don't know. Rocket said soon so hopefully that means......soon. Parrot!

(Yawn) You know this type of thread has been done to death. And you do know where we put dead things? Not convenient - just the topic is boring. We don't know when it will be released but soon is all we have to go on. So why not just wait like the rest of us?

Good man, good man.

DayZ Standalone Suggestions: Bleeding + Carry Weight
DemonGroover replied to ryan055's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Hi there I am not sure but i dont think there will be a stamina system and tbh i would rather there wasnt one implemented. At least not one that made you walk after 30 seconds of running. As far as carry weight, i would just assume that there are only a certain amount of slots you can carry, rather than items having a particular weight. Your blood ideas are interesting and having blood soaked clothes rather than blood pissing out of your ass would be interesting. I also agree about bandages, in that they shouldn't just stop bleeding outright but perhaps slow it down until you can fix yourself up a little better. -
Rather than actual farming i'd prefer being able to harvest the crops that are already dotted around Chernarus. There are many pumpkin patches, orchards as well as areas where mushrooms could grow. If you allow players to grow their own crops it will be inevitable that heavily guarded marijuana plantations will sprout up all over the land.

Trimming only. Removal of the beard results in instant dismissal from the Fellowship. Dismissal being death of course.

They are for Beard maintenance. Very important in an apocalypse. I am sure it will be in an upcoming patch.
-
A lot more variety in zombie models would be nice.

So Bohemia Interactive updated steam for DayZ
DemonGroover replied to jamestrendall's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Could it be?? -
Posture based on survival success.
DemonGroover replied to green_machine's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I do like this kind of idea and i think Rocket did mention something similar was being considered since clothing is going to be available for everyone rather then getting skins because of your actions. Things like subtle changes in stance, rather than a bandit/hero skin could be a better solution. -
Lol Your comment made me imagine a bunch of insane psychopaths in prisons across the world being allowed to play DayZ. The next time you see Charles Manson in game just remember it could actually be him.

The Importance of the Humanity System in Maintaining a Healthy Player Base
DemonGroover replied to Vicco's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I agree that as a game it probably needs something that reflects play style. I am not sure if an instant bandit skin is the way to go though. I would prefer something a bit more subtle, perhaps rockets idea of blood spattered hands or something, I dunno tbh. I too dislike the way bandits could spam bloodbag each other to regain humanity. The Humanity system does need work and it will be interesting to see which way the devs go. -
Berezino: The Best City in all of Chernarus?
DemonGroover replied to TheRaptorFence's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I like Berezino - i go there for holidays due to my hectic life in Cherno. -
The mod might not be perfect but i definitely think it is heading in the right direction. Less loot and more dangerous zombies is a good start.

Will anyone else play KOS in SA when it comes out?
DemonGroover replied to Ozelot (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I really am going to enjoy the first few weeks of the Standalone release because there is going to be a world of butthurt. -
For a lot of people, seeing a medic arm patch could be reason enough to approach that player. Sure it could backfire a few times but being able to show yourself as a medic would be quite interesting.

Most people will have some kind of disease in Dayz. We should be prepared for a shitstorm of complaints
DemonGroover replied to ponc's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Perhaps the game will turn KoS because players will be afraid of catching a disease off someone? -
Standalone Zombie Jumping
DemonGroover replied to globalfriction's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
They hardly lunge 20 feet. And i would imagine a psychotic cannibal being very strong, fast and determined to rip out your spleen. -
Standalone Zombie Jumping
DemonGroover replied to globalfriction's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It would be nice if not only did the zombies jump at you but grab you as well, dragging you down to the ground and ripping your guts out.
