Agree(but add in a harsh weight stamina system aswell), these sort of changes for me personally are more important than vehicles (but thats just me i realize ill be spending far more time on foot than i will in a vehicle and believe these sort of changes will have a large positive effect on the game.

So with vehicles on experimental, and only a matter of time before they hit stable I personally think it's a good time to reduce player run speed back down. It was increased early on and I believe it was Chris Torchia who said it was done by the devs as a favor to the playerbase due to the lack of vehicles (I'm sure some one can dig up the tweet, but this was definitely said). Personally, I feel it was a bit of a mistake, that players would get too accustomed to it and when it is reduced there will be quite a bit of complaints. However, here we are and I think it's time. The run speed is too fast in general, vehicles or not, and is an issue in pvp as well as the flow of the game in other regards. You can run from some spawns to the nwaf in 15 minutes or less, making it trivial to traverse the map. I went back to the mod recently and really the transition back down to a slower speed wasn't so bad. I do think people are going to cry at first, but I think after a week or so everyone will be used to it again and things will feel better overall. Any ways, thoughts? *edit* Here's the relevant tweets:

I never got to ride in a helicopter in the mod. Every time I'd be around when my group was getting one going we would get either killed by a hacker squad or the server would reset and the helicopter would be gone, replaced by a tractor. Not shitting you there. Once we had a convoy of 3 vehicles heading to a camp, bringing loots and parts for the heli. Server restarted, 2 out of the 3 convoy vehicles were gone, the other turned into a bike and the heli became a farm tractor.

Again, that is because THERE IS NEXT TO NOTHING TO DO IN-GAME. Is there base-building? No. Are there (working) vehicles? No. Are there working survival mechanics? Barely. Literally, there is nothing else to do currently in-game with your loot except kill people with it. Literally nothing. We are not saying "fuck you" to PvP, by the way. I engage in PvP all the time. I just got 15 kills in a row with the improvised bow, probably the worst ranged weapon in-game, just for shits and giggles. I (and a lot of other senior members of the forum) certainly aren't afraid to mix it up. We just think that Day Z is, and shall be, more than a shoot-em-up simulator, and we get irked when players state that is what it is supposed to be. It isn't, it is supposed to be a "post-apocalyptic survival game" "post-apocalyptic survival game" "post-apocalyptic survival game" Now, does that mean there is no PvP? Hell no. However, does that mean survival aspects should be lessened or removed entirely to please the "ALL PVP ALL THE TIME" fanboys? Hell no

I agree, we need a civilian type of rugged truck/suv. Although I wouldn't expect to find any kind of American-made Jeeps in Chenarus. If you look overseas, specifically in Europe, most rugged expedition style vehicles you find are Land Rovers or Toyotas. A pickup would have great utility and cargo space, a 4 seater SUV would be perfect for hauling a small group. My personal suggestions would be an old, dented, beat up, rusty Toyota Pickup/Hilux or Landcruiser. I also agree with the person who suggested the vehicles should have mismatched paint. White body with a blue hood, mismatched doors, a gray fender is realistic. Devs could also offer more spraypaint colors allowing us to spraypaint each panel to match the paint.

The DayZ development team in association with Bohemia Interactive would like to announce that having completed our first year of Early Access development, we have reached an important project milestone. Looking forward into the opportunities and obstacles of the coming year, we would like to share our plans and goals for 2015. These plans change over time, and internally the team has reviewed our progress this year against where we want DayZ to be at 1.0. Compiling this data we have completed a light roadmap based on our experience with the project for the upcoming year, and this is a taste of exciting things to come that we can look forward to. Q1 2015 Basic vehiclesCentral economy (advanced loot distribution)New rendererNew Zombie AIBasic stealth system (zombies, animals, ...)DiseasesQ2 2015 Advanced vehicles (repair, modifications, ...)Advanced animals - life cycle, group behaviorPlayer statisticsNew UI Stamina / fatigueDynamic eventsQ3 2015 TrapsBarricadingCharacter life span + soft skillsAnimal predators + birdsAerial transportConsole prototypeQ4 2015 BETA versionAnimal companions (dog, horse)Steam community integration (Achievements, Steamworks modding, etc)Construction (building shelters / walls / ...)Along with the remaining updates this year you can expect a new price point for DayZ, a slight increase to 27.99 EUR/34.99 USD. This is part of a gradual price change as we progress with the development and reach the goals that we along with your help set for the project. We would like to avoid a sudden increase in price once we hit 1.0. Don`t be discouraged by this increase however, the current price of 23.99 EUR/29.99 USD will still be available during the Steam fall sale. If you want to jump into DayZ, now is a good time. We are all very excited to announce that the first half of 2016 will introduce our final version and release from early access, with our final price point of 39.99 EUR / 49.99 USD. See you in Chernarus! Discussion and Feedback

The question stays above in the title, i have dayz standalone 0.50 i dont know how i can update but can i find the vehicles in the dayz 0.50 update? so not. How can i update my Dayz? Tynx for helping. Greets.

Arma is much more refined, has the same mechanics, has vehicles, has games like King Of The Hill and lots of guns. Just saying.

While I like some parts of your idea I have to say that I think car alarms should be left out. One reason being older vehicles seldom have alarms, and the other reason is that there are plenty of other ways to make it really really hard to get the car anyway. Consider for example the following scenario: You find a car, but x number of tires are flat, the battery is dead, and sparkplugs need changing. Also there is no fuel. Since you're not carrying more than one tire at a time, nor more than one battery at a time, and maybe two cans of fuel, if you're alone this means you will have to travel back and forth to the car no less than 2+x times as a bare minimum. So, now add to this the time it would take you to find the components. Fuel needs a container to be carried in, but say you settle for the one can of fuel so that's one run to and from a fuel source with a jerry can. Perhaps you can use water bottles and canteens or maybe even a cooking pot to carry the fuel, but the water bottles will not be good for water afterwards and the cooking pot will take up both your hands while you carry it, and a mechanic can be added to make you spill a little fuel if using the cooking pot so that you only get a fraction of the fuel to the car. Now find a working battery, carry that heavy bastard to the car, then find a tire and carry that to the car. Then find sparkplugs. What if those are rare? Either way, say you undertake this whole mission to fix the car. What says that someone else already carrying the last missing component doesn't get there and repair it before you? Or simply spot you traveling back and from the car all those times and decide to ambush you? Alright, assume you manage to fix the car at the bare minimum. You now have a weak battery, and a 10% full tank of fuel. So, you get onto the hotwiring (and I'd say skip the hotwire kit. It's not that hard to hotwire older car models. Newer ones are a different matter), and for that you need some tool to break open part of the dashboard, some tool to cut the wires, and then duct tape to insulate the wires so they don't blow a fuse from touching some other wire connections behind the dashboard. This would take a couple of minutes. So, once you're done with that if someone hasn't seen you already (zombie or person) you're lucky. Now comes the exciting part. Have you ever considered how loud the starting engine on an older car model is? Remember that weak battery you put in? It's gonna take a couple of tries to get the engine started. During that time you will be making a lot of noise. If you still manage to survive all this without getting killed you can drive off. I'd say there's no need for car alarms. Also, all of the above makes this hard to do on your own, so it should definitely be a group effort. In closing, I'd like to add the suggestion that they put something similar to this into the game (rare item of course): It works such that the driving gas in the can fills the tire, but it also sprays a mix of solvent and sealant into the tire, so that when the tire spins it coats the inside. This is no permanent fix however. It only allows you to drive a short distance, say to a repair shop. Or in this case, out of the hot zone and into a garage to hide or something like that. :)

"So these are the last days I will be able to walk on the road? I will miss running on the roads."

I really hope they put some more focus on zombies to bring them to this state. They are doing quite good on content generation and I'm excited about upcoming vehicles. I feel like they should focus and hammer out these zombies soon. It's a huge part of game-play and in my opinion, real zombie threa is one of the best catalysts for interesting player-player interaction, and one of the fundamental building blocks of the game.

All those crashes are coming down to one thing I think.. Ragdoll physics Seems like it crashes when anything goes ragdoll, and stays crashed for your character until that body despawns, now allowing you to spawn in. It actually may be a somewhat easier fix to get vehicles working properly. Im gonna guess, tentatively that we might get lucky and see this in stable soon here.

We knew it would end up this way. Weeks ago i decided not to play for a week once vehicles were implemented. Wasn't my worst idea I guess.

I look forward to vehicles - I just hope Tents actually spawn on the servers on the stable branch 50- not seen any in days.

brace yourselfs....Posts about the shitty vehicles incomming... :P

Now that vehicles are in the game, I thought "gas trap" was something that I do with my friends sometimes in my own car.

Well definitely there should be a lot of customization options and that would be really cool, but please think of the poor old developers when you ask for "endless possibilities", okay? Hey, could you please add the 'vehicles should be craftable from scratch, And found perfectly working, and repairable' option? None of your poll answers tickles my fancy. Please don't take this the wrong way but the poll feels a little slanted, you have no degree in between "Military vehicles should be more common than civilian ones!" and "Military vehicles should be super rare"

vehicles on Expirremental right now. go get you one. anyways on bikes...2 wheeled vehicles are harder to program than 4 wheeled vehicles so they will be later than trucks and cars and whatnot.

Player interactions are bit different with 1PP but the view also affects how you deal with the zombies. With 3PP you don't get surprised so easily. Same things that 3PP has effect on PVP it also have the same effects against zombies. Also vehicles have more restricted view in 1PP. PVP and player interaction aren't the only things that gets different with 1PP...

With all the work it would take, it's probably better at the moment for them to be putting work into vehicles, weapons, food, crafting, zombies, the environment, survivalism, base building, and even when they've done all that I personally would rather see them spend all their time optimising and bugfixing than this. They've spent enough time on clothing options already. Shouldn't taking off the jacket and putting it in your backpack solve the problem?
