First Vs. Third Person Poll (Post your vote here, after reading Dslyecxi video discussion)
DerrocK (DayZ) replied to (TMW) Marion Mic's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I really hope they remove third person view. Its much more fair, more balanced. 1pv'er vs 3pv'er usual conversation/argument 3pv'er - I get headaches when I play in 1pv because of the head bob. 1pv'er - U can disable it almost completely in the settings menu 3pv'er - We get a much more realistic field of view in 3rdpv 1pv'er - FOV is a really retarded argument, just doubletap minus key in the numpad, voila. 3pv'er - Watching the awesomeness of your character or the animations is a thing u can't do in 1stpv 1pv'er - With the new inventory system u will be able to see your character look in the inventory menu, and as for the animations just look at the other players, nothing important (At this point the 1pv'er completely broke 3pver's fake reasons and the latter one must invent more fake reasons) 3pv'er - UH UH UH IRL SITUATIONAL AWARENESS IS... 1pv'er - Shh shh calm down. Situational awareness isn't that good to know exactly where is everything over a wall or whats happening 300mts away over the rock you are hiding in. Dude just spit it out, you only want third person because you fear a zombie popping in front of your face -
The tactical awarness in this game is key in PvP A player in 3rd person mode CAN and WILL see over walls and around corners without exposing himself, for example a pretty common situation like 2 guys in cherno where 1 of them is in 3rd person mode and other guy in 1st person mode; The guy in 3rd person mode has a much higher chance to win the engagement as he is aware of enemy presence. Sure, DayZ is such a big environment that makes 3rd person camera look impossible to replace but u only think that because you have always played with that camera from the very beginning of the game. Another situation! The rooftop of the elektro school: An sniper camping there in 3rd person,lying, will see enemies that are on the street/supermarket and those enemies again without exposing himself. Only chance to see this guy is, in this case, going to the sniper mountain and check if there is somebody in that rooftop. There are lots of simillar situations in DayZ, don't say no, u would be lying. I know there is controversy about this and sorry but 3rd person camera is OVERPOWERED.

NVG's, the downfall of DayZ "suspense"
DerrocK (DayZ) replied to Arctic33's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I have a group with 4 members and one of us holds NVG, we have to struggle at night with 2 eyes for 4 ppl (we are really stealthy and dont use flares/chems/flashlights), and its really fun. Everytime we see NVG we freak out because its the only thing we need atm... we play fair and dont hack/exploit... I think NVG are GREAT but what brings this greatness down?? the fking hackers/dupers/exploiters. -
Aren't u tired to see the same guns all the time? Lee enfield, winchester, AKM, the only 6 secondary weapons available and a very short etc? I suggest to add a wide amount of weapons so that it is rare to find a gun like yours and I mean adding more weapons, here is the list I propose: Since this is a soviet environment (russia) I suggest to add more russian weapons. Examples of Pistols MP-443 MP-412 rex Tokarev TSM OTs 38 VAG-73 Examples of shotguns Saiga 12 MTs-255 Examples of SMGs PPsh-41 PP-90 PP-2000 A-91 Examples of battle rifles Mosin nagant SVT-40 Tokarev SKS 45/simonov Examples of sniper rifles SV-98 SVU VSS vintorez Examples of Assault rifles AEK 971 AN-94 Abakan Fedorov Avtomat (please 1st assault rifle in the world) What about the more modern AK rifles? AK-101, 103 etc AS VAL OC-14 Groza 4 Examples of light machineguns PKP Pechneg RPD RPK Please reconsider adding some of these weapons.

And again the military grade weapons should be much rarer maybe 1% is the max chance to get for example an AKM and then there should be a old fashioned weapons and lower calibre rifles etc
-
lol funniest thing thing I heard today, since when 6 pistols are a lot? BTW i didnt take these from BF3, take a look at this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_weaponry
-
Yes I know there should be more civilian grade weaponry but atm the military grade weapons number is still very low, just, just think about the secondary firearms! about the assault rifles! you go to the cherno firehouse, pum 1 AKM, 1 G17, 1 AK kobra and dont forget the m1014...you go to a heli crash, pum 3 FN FAL, 1 bizon and a barret. you go to a deer stand, A DEER STAND and what do you get? AKM, DMR etc. You go to a barn or a rural house, what do you find? enfield, crossbow and double barreled, where is my ol ppsh 41? or my ol mosin nagant? this is what i mean...
-
Awesome idea! you have my beans!
-
1-sturmgewehr wasnt the 1st assault rifle in the world, fedorov avtomat was created in 1915! sturmgewehr in 1940's 2-Those weapons may be in Arma 2 but not in DayZ mod 3- Because chernarus is a post soviet environment (russia-ukraine) and yes i could add a lot of more weapon suggestions like the thompson, the ruby pistol, the sturmgewehr u mentioned etc but i was suggesting only russian weaponry at the moment

Anyone notice how DayZ is becoming less and less survival oriented, and is now filled with PVP-ing CoD kiddies?
DerrocK (DayZ) replied to ornatecocoapuff's topic in New Player Discussion
ppl saying PvP sucks annoy me. Its an FPS game. If you try to team up with randoms, you are semi retarded. I have my team and we are very succesful in everything we do (PvP, airport raids, lovely ambushes etc). and this game NEVER had any horror elements. zombies? you think the zombies we see in game are horrendous, scary and powerful? seriously.

DayZ Standalone: features I'd like to see in the game.
DerrocK (DayZ) replied to fickers's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
IMHO 3rd person its just not for this game, seriously. Why? because currently u can see whats happening over a wall. If u are camping u can see if somebody is coming while they cant see you. do you want an example? Elektrozavodsk school/hospital roofs. A camper goes to the roof, lies down, 3rd person view, voila, I can see all goddamn elektro while the only ones being able to see me are the ones camping in the mountains. while i camp there in 3rd person mode I just have to wait for some1 coming to kill him by surprise. yeah u could say "irl u could use a mirror to look outside" yeah, make it a lootable item (would be really nice if we lack 3rd person mode in a future) but the survivor will still see that mirror; "irl u can have a fiber optic camera" ok make it another lootable item on high-end military zones. Then watching whats happening over a wall would be possible irl. "oh noob but you can hear the footsteps blablabla" yes u can hear but you still cant clearly see whats happening and if they are crawling you shouldn't hear anything. Come on its supposed to be a fakin realistic survival zombie game with a lot of realistic thingys like u can lose an arm, if u get shot u must remove the bullet with something or it will infect/gangrene etc... 3rd person mode has turned the game much much easier. Some guys said if u are crawling in 1st person mode u wouldn't see anything because of the grass, then the only disadvantage crawling has is the speed reduction, irl its also like that. haters gonna hate "irl there are no zombies so fuk you" -
