So i was thinking, has any one put one together? What do i mean by that? I mean about 50 people all get on a server at the same time and play for like 12 hours. Last man standing wins. Wins what? Braging rights. E-peen extention. And most importantly, webcred. Of course im probably not the first one to think of this and if this is the case then disregard this post. Thanks for reading either way.

Clothing sets as rewards for past feats
Morasmus replied to hatfieldcw's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
This is a very good idea for the mod. But in the stand alone i would much rather everyone start with the same thing and aquire differnt cloths as they get geared. -
So heres the deal. Im rather dissatified with the selection and the way vehicles work right now. They need to be a little more prevelent, but much harder to repair. Right now, a car can be found in about 3o minutes, and repaired in about an hour if you have to find all the parts. Im thinking there sound be more parts that have to be found. Keep the current parts needed, but add batteries, wiring, steering wheels, mufflers(optional, makes the vehicle quieter), and a few others but im not a car person so i cant think of anything else right now. Vehicle customization... Im sure im not the first to talk about this but I want to see it so here it is again. Vehicles should be able things attached to them. There HAS be a customize vehicle option. This should include, but not limited to, plows, armor plating, bars to go over windows, etc. But these this concept MUST be realistic. This should not turn into something silly like those buses from Dawn Of The Dead. More vehicles please. There needs to be MUCH more selection. I could rattle off a crazy list of what id like to see, but ill keep it realistic. Sportscars. Fast and agile, but poor offroad and very limited storage. LARGE TRUCKS. Is a semi+trailer too much to ask for? If it is then i would like to see at least something the size of a large U-Haul would be nice. Kinda slow and sluggish movements, but has an INCREDIBLE amount of storage and passanger space. My thinking behind these is, forget tents, ill just keep my camp on the move. Small planes and helicopters, just 2 or 4 seaters. Used for recon and rapid transport. Nothing special. I would also like to see alot more basic transportation methods. Things such as skateboards, MORE bikes, rollers blades, scooters, etc. Although, these not be anywhere near as amazing as the bike is right now. Realistically, a bike can do around 25kmh and a person on a skateboard could do around 15. Same with the roller blades and scooters. Camo. Camo? Camo. If theres one thing that gets me killed more than dicks with .5ocals, its the improper camo that causes me to be seen in the first place. And I know what your thinking, "buts theres already camo clothing in the game." This is true, but its garbage and too rare for how poor it is. Realistically, if you think about it, anyone in world could turn a pair a of jeans into camo pants with a couple different colors of spraypaint. And anyone in the world could do this shirts, guns, and even vehicles too. While a simple in-game "camoing" window could get the job done, id much rather see something else. The ability to export weapon, clothing, and vehicle bitmaps to photoshop, gimp, even paint. Then you could color/pattern them anyway you wanted. Anything, it wouldnt matter. Spend alot of time laying around the forest? Maybe go with some splotchy greens and browns. Or maybe lurking the alleys and back streets of cities is more your thing? Slap some greys and blacks on everything. The possibilitys are endless, limited only by your imagination. And yeah i know I made a post very to this about a week ago but i mislabeled the thread so not very many people read it. And to Rocket if you read this. Make these things happen man.

Oh and the ability to use a spray paint can to paint graffiti or messages on building and the ground. These should stay on the buildings even after a server restart. It could be a good way of warning against campers and snipers. Or it could just be used to mark your turf. Either way.

You know what kills me? The fact that there arnt more vehicles. Now im not nessecarily a parking lot full of cars, but what i am saying is more simple, little vehicles. Skateboards, roller blades, MORE bicycles, maybe even electirc scooters and such that can be recharged. And keep in mind i dont expect these things to be able to go 50kmh like the bike does now, but resonably speaking, if a person can run 10kmh, then a skateboard can easily go 20kmh. And of course these wouldnt have item or weapon slots or anything, they are just transportation alternatives to having to run everywhere when you cant find a car. Custom camos. Im not talking a couple of in game options here, im talking the ability to export Bitmaps to photoshop, paint, gimp, or what ever you have and do them up how ever you want. You want a pink gun? Fine make it pink. You want flaming skulls on on it? Well thats just fine too. And it shouldnt stop at guns. You should be able to do it to anything. Cars, clothing, guns, tents. It dosent matter what, you can paint it. And these custom colors/camos should also be visable to eveyone in game. Although the vehicle paint may be a challange. As if your with a group and multible people want there scheme on it that could cause some problems. But I get if you call driver you also call the paint job and add an option when you look at the car and scoll, you get an option to "apply paint". Well that solved that problem. Anyway. You see someone with a badass camo on there gun? Trade them for it. It would also open up more survival aspects as the serious player would want a camo that matches what ever enviroment he happens to be in. Spend alot of time in towns? You may want to slap a digital urban on everything. Maybe the forest is more your bag? How about some blotchy greens and browns? The possibilities would be endless. Selectable ailments. Lets face it. No one has perfect health. Every one has a skin problem, or a mental condition, or they need glasses, the list goes on. So it seems it would it be alittle far fetched that your char might also have nothing wrong with him/her. Now im not talking anything serious like asthma or cancer but just little things. And all these selectable ailments would have pro/con effects. For example. You make your char and give him ADHD. Because hes Hyper-active, this would cause your char to able to run faster, farther, and just have more over all energy. But because hes also Attention Deficet, he will lose interest in things faster than most so maybe his aim would suffer a bit. Heres another. Maybe your char has to have glasses. Boom, instart fire starter. I dont feel like looking through a list of medical conditions right now but im sure there ALOT more that have pros/cons. Oh and you should have the option to not take any at all if you dont want to because it is a little stupid to be forced to be sick. Recreational drugs. Lets face it, people do drugs. Its a fact. Why would that stop in an apocalyptic situation? So theres no reason you cant go into a random house and find some. They would probably be some what rare because of their illigal status but you could find them. So lets say you find some Methamphetamine. Take it and will up your energy and make you more pain tolorent while your char is on it. Heroin? Slows you down but allows you shrug off any pain that may come your way while your under its effect. Mariwajuana? Again slows you down a bit and allows you to ignore mild pain. Cocain? Speeds you up but your char might not be able to sit still and he may move around just a tiny bit on his own. There lots of options but what little knowledge i have gained from tv and movies ends there. A Radio broadcast station. Every server should have a contestable radio broadcasting station. If you/your group control it you can trasmit to everyone in the server who has a car or personal radio.You could just do talk show, or you could play music straight off your hard drive or even off your youtube playlist. Maybe your clan controls a server so you have daily/weekly events where you get someone to come on do an interview. Or maybe you just wanna troll people and play the most annoying crap you can find. If its a heavily used server you could even share it with other groups and get 2 hours time slots or whatever is agreed upon. Its your choice. Well that all i got for now. If i think of anything else ill add it here.

Suggestions for the DayZ standalone - thinking outside of the limitations of an Arma 2 mod.
Morasmus replied to ruarz's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
You know what would be amazing. A contestable radio station on every server. If you and/or your group go in and kill the current owners, you get to decide what plays. Then go so far as to able to just play music of your PC. This radio should be able to be heard in vehicles and portable personal radios. -
