It should be endgame. The lights that were on in SA were never meant to be on, I'm assuming they recycled some assets and forgot to take a light source out of the code/model, but even these very few examples could be explained away as battery/solar powered. From the sounds of it vehicles are going to require multiple tools (wrench, pliers, hammer, ect are already in) and not just a generic toolbox like in the mod. DayZ is set well after humanity's downfall, so any power plants would have shutdown/self destructed/run out of fuel by now. Even Solar/wind farms would have tripped a breaker, broken piece of equipment or some other malfunction preventing transmission of power. As far as I can tell the only power plant in the playable region (currently) is in Electro. You'd have to get that working for starters (and that'd be a bitch and a half for even a large, organized group) and if you got that running there'ed be problems all over the grid you'd have to deal with.

I'll try On the Public hive all characters are connected to one database (well, two actually, 1st person only and 3rd person enabled servers). Though things like tents, vehicles and bases will only save on one server and not cross over. The greater choice of servers means that if your server goes down or is just having a bad day you can easily swap to another server and not have to start as a fresh spawn, It also makes it easy for friends from different parts of the world to find a low ping server that they can all play on. On a Private shard your character will only save on that one server, this is good in that it prevents issues like server hopping and ghosting. There will eventually be a global loot system that will monitor loot across all the servers and limit which kind of loot spawns accordingly, allowing them to make certain items extremely rare, such as high powered weapons, nvg's, helicopter parts, and medicine. I think this will be a really interesting mechanic on the Public hive, promoting high value trading between strangers and large scale rivalries between groups on different servers. Not even sure if Private hives will have the same system and even if they do it will be severely smaller in scale just due to it being limited to one server. Server admins have very little power when running a Public server, this is to prevent abuse such as locking a server and farming for gear then going over to another server on the hive. Basically they can only kick players and only with good reason, and because they have no access to logs it is very difficult for them to prove when someone is cheating, eventually the Devs will be releasing anticheat software that will help, but could be a while off. Private server admins can kick, ban and lock as much as their heart desires as it only affects the players on that server, also they can set rules for their server such as no pvp, roleplay only, etc. initially they wont have access to logs or the ability to add mods either but that will change when the overall security of the game has improved. My personal opinion is that Private shards are great for people who want to be part of a close community and do provide better protection from cheaters, But in my experience from the mod they tend to get stale after a short while, due to seeing the same names everytime you log on. The Public hive has a much greater sense of scale making it more unpredictable and for me, far more immersive, and if you play on official servers run by Bohemia you can completely avoid the chance of admin abuse. I'll be more interested in Private shards when modding is allowed, though history tells me that the majority of modded servers will just break the whole concept of the game, there should be a few that shine through.

After a Landmine is done with your Body there will be nothing Left to take (all of the Suplies in the room will be Ruined) am not anti-military at all with the Military Presence in the area Quite Frankly i Think AKM, M4, And grenades Would be more Common Place than a Double Barreled Shotgun or Mosin Nagant What I Was stating as Unrealistic is the Fact Trip Mines Could/Would Be Placed on Spawn Points Meaning that Unrealistically Rendering Us Killed Before we Come into Being to even Play (It Would Be Like COD When everyone is Just Spawn Camping with their Claymores) Or that Server Hoppers will Go Gather all the Explosives of X-ammount of Servers to Make Berezino or electro Trip Mined with More Mines than all of Chernarus Should Have Gun Powder, thats all I am all For Adding features to the Game i Just Feel Why do We need Claymores/Trip Mines? they Dont add that Much To the Game for what they can potentialy Ruin I Just Feel that People Exploit The System enough and do duplicating to troll Currently and thats when they Have to be able to see you to ruin your game I didnt Ever Say that Improvised Grenades were More realistic or Better than Military (Please re-Read my Post if Confused) I said "Improvised Grenades would be Nice But not a Fan of Trip Mines" Meaning i Can See Crafting Improv. Grenades in Game as Being Beneficial For an Alternative to finding Military ones not that they would be a Better Grenade Anyway i was Just stating in my Opinion that if they aren't Going to Let us Repair Such things as Military Vehicles Like APC's or Tanks Because they Wanted this to be a Survival Game not a War Simulator (Something i Would Have Spent a Great Deal of Time Doing is Repairing a Armored Vehicle) then Landmines/Claymores Are Also an over Powered Item i Don't see Necessary Either if added though i think Some should Spawn Armed in Area's Since the Army Likely Had Mine Fields already Laid B) I think Realy that they Should Impliment every thing that Should be in this area Like Armored Vehicles,Helicopters, Mines, RPGs I Just think to exclude Most these items for the reason "they are to Military" While implementing the Claymores and Landmines Which in all Military Games Are Likely the Largest Nuisance Items is Stupid I am one of the Biggest Advocates of More Customization/More items ^_^ But From Past experience on these Forums Been Told No on Alot of Suggestions Based on that they Would Break the Survivor Feel <_< Because "they are to Military" "Colored Spray paint Wouldn't exist in the apocolypse" or the "Why would Chernarus Have Womens Clothing their impractical for survival" xD Anyways I think Bases Should Have traps But i think they Need to Find a Way to Keep Players From Planting them Were all the New Spawns Start if they Do :huh: or the Game will Get much Worse :( Keep in Mind Like you Said Military issued Mines would be rare Spawned Loot But if you Can Make your own IED's as the Original Post Suggest then The Amount of improv. Mines will Be alot

Why do you feel the need to capitalize almost every word in your sentences? Seriously, you only need to do it to the first letter and any proper nouns, "It Doesnt have to Be Like this All The TIme". Part of survival is inevitably going to involve killing others - including the placing of traps and other defenses, and taking out vehicles/infrastructure. We're not civilians, nor soldiers - we're just survivors, probably of various backgrounds (the avatar is intended to represent you) making do in the world. Some people survive by looting and scavenging, others live off the land, and still more take what they can from others. It's absolutely realistic to be finding explosives, grenades are standard issue gear in practically every military on the planet. Mines, claymores, and other explosives are also fairly common. Sure, I don't "need" grenades to survive, but with that logic we don't need AKs, or M4s, or anything but hunting rifles and shotguns (Why don't we just remove every gun but the Sporter-22, IZH-43, and CR-527?) How improvised grenades are any better/more realistic than military issue grenades is beyond me - it seems you just dislike the stigma of something being involved with military usage, not actually how realistic nor beneficial to gameplay it'd be. It's honestly doubtful that you'd have explosives and mines everywhere, even grenades as they are spawn incredibly rarely, and they don't see a ton of usage. But yes, it's understandable that people would place mines, IEDs, and other weapons at hot spots, like gas stations, highways, or major cities - just as is done in real life. You should need to be careful when driving in a high-traffic area, because it'd be quite dumb if all you had to worry about was some guy spraying an AK at you from a rooftop, rather than something that poses a real threat to your success.

It will be fun to terrorize people shoting from vehicles, bonus points if I could use a pistol while driving Sort of related

I have to say this, in terms of trashed vehicles on the map there should be a crap load of them. I mean vehicles that cannot be repaired at all, there needs to be way more apocalyptic details like that in the setting for the game because right now, and I think anyone would agree, you just don't get that feeling whatsoever. The map is huge so the entire map doesn't need to feel like an isolated 3rd world farmland, add in a highway and put some trashed cars on it. As far as how many working vehicles should be on the map, 10 is ridiculous and so is 20. This map is absolutely huge, and if somebody finds a vehicle knowing they are so few in numbers the potential for griefing the entire server by hiding it someplace ridiculous is extremely high. If they are persistent like tents are, the potential for griefing would be astounding. I watched that video, dean wants the vehicles to be super rare and all that, but I don't agree. Transportation in a game like this should not be rare. Nobody wants to play a running simulator, its just boring. If they keep making everything so frustrating and annoying, I feel like a majority of players who want to play this game are not going to. I mean my time is valuable and I want to have a good time in a game, not be harassed by its bad mechanics. As far as using the walking dead as an example, it would be the most accurate representation of this though. I think they're hell bent on making their game the most boring thing in the world to play or something though. I really don't know what their deal is with this whole rarity thing. I understand you want the player to have some sense of dread for surviving any situation especially when they find something rare, but honestly... you always have that sense while playing anyway. Just make the game fun to play. I'm not asking for 500 cars, but 20 is way too few. Also please make the game look and feel more apocalyptic. Right now everywhere just looks completely normal, like nothing bad happened anywhere.

Unless that car has been running with the alternator charging the battery on a reasonably regular basis the battery will die. I left my car off the road and within a month of not driving it the battery was dead. So no, a car is not a viable answer at this point in the apocalypse. If we don't have to find a way to charge the car battery when vehicles get introduced I'd be disappointed.

Hehe I used to misspell it aswell......until I picked up arma 2 and every editor command for vehicles starts vehicle=this, soon learnt when all my scripts failed lol As for vehicles, im fine with just a few. Loads would be nice, and somewhat more authentic. But as hicks mentions people would just meta game it. Think of the heli in the mod....parts needed.. 8 Glass 2 Scrap Main Rot Engine Fuel Sounds like quite a bit of effort.....iv seen 4 man groups scout the heli spawns, find the NWA heli, and have it running in 30 mins. Then 1 hour later they have used it to wipe most of the campsites from the map :D At least with an abundance of cars theres always one there for people, and clans wouldn't horde EVERY SINGLE ONE because there would become a point when so many of the same white car at your camp is only gonna get it spotted lol

Uh, yes? That is what I would eventually like. It is both realistic, and would add atmosphere to the game. Server starts out full of loot. As people pick it up/use it, it doesn't respawn, with the exception of fruits, vegetables, and animals (AKA agriculture/animal husbandry). This would drive people to use improvised weapons with retrievable/craft-able ammunition (bow/crossbow), melee weapons, and be VERY conserving with firearm ammunition. If you find the materials, you can make new ammunition, and maybe even actual firearms and clothing (those "lathe" buildings would be great!). This would cause groups to form up, both in the form of industry ( food plantations, industrial centers, trading caravans, etc), and in bandits that attack those centers (Bandits knock over a caravan for supplies, attack and hold a plantation and start collecting slaves, etc) This would: 1) Lessen KoS, or at least, give a reason for organized PvP. Now your clan isn't just "fighting to fight", you are "fighting to keep control of your ammunition factory, that brings you in massive profits from trading", or "fighting to defend your farm, that keeps half of Chernarus from clothed and fed", or "fighting to defend your alcohol still, that provides fuel for almost all the vehicles in Chernarus" 2) Add "flavor". Now you aren't just roaming Chernarus aimlessly, searching for a LRS. Now, you are searching for a pristine AKM, so that the factory that sponsored you can copy the pattern (and is paying you very well for your troubles). 3) give newspawns a fighting chance. Now, if they spawn into a high-pop server, they have little chance if they spawn on and remain on the coast. In my plan, they can run to the nearest settlement and ask for work. 4) Add to roleplaying. Instead of fighting off random bandit clans, now you "are an enlisted soldier of the Berezino Federation, fighting to keep trade routes clear of bandit scum", or a "caravan guard, defending their employer for blood and profit" Plus numerous other reasons.

Watching walking dead it seems like people are much rarer... or spread out. The shows not about game play balance or game play enjoyability its about story telling... unfair situations are very interesting. When I first saw that video I personally thought 10 vehicles (ranging from small to large) was way too much, and not rare enough.

shooting from vehicles has been a thing since the early days of Tribes 2 and BF1942. I don't see why they wouldn't add it in

Yes please, but not in Patch .50 ! When we have vehicles, then there is a use for it. And with all that stuff mentioned: Weight, recoil, ultra-rare etc.

If you read the DayZ status reports you'l see the big and little DayZ developments. However DayZ and steam forums users are now demanding that the developers add something other than vehicles and base building to be included into the game as soon as possible. Whats the option they are asking for? Well its a suicide option. The only mention of the option so far is from the official DayZ trailer that released on 16th December 2013 which shows a female character committing suicide with a handgun. Do you agree with this option to be added or not? Many users against the option have pointed out that DayZ is a survival game and the fact you are playing the game means that you have already enrolled yourself to take on that sense of realism of a predefined choice to play as a survivor. survivor being the key word. However players for the option argue that the implementation of the suicide button is practical to the game and will simply allow them to easily choose a spawn closer to their friends. I have to agree we all know there is nothing worse than an hour's run all the way down south of the map to your friends because the game has spawned you way up north! Currently in DayZ Mod many servers have the "/killme" option. Personally I like my gameplay to be as realistic as possible and to immerse myself in the game but I must admit I have used it once. I had to rush back to my body after the server d-syncing and I crashed into a tree.. so I felt the server owed me one allowing me to use the 'exploit' command. Exploit might not be the right word but personally I would side with the argument against the option, I believe you should play from where the server randomly spawns you. Following the DayZ Standalone trailer I'm sure its difficult to say they can't add it to the game. If you have already played for a few hours you will have certainly seen those litters of dead bodies around a high jump location. So you'l find players are going to do it anyway but maybe it will come at a cost or plenty like Longer re-spawn timer or take off damage of loot left behind. Let me know of your thoughts on the suicide option in the comments below! Are you for or against the idea. Hope you enjoyed the video make sure to subscribe for more DayZ chatters but for now See you in the next one!

I'm curious, with how much trouble that regular DayZ mod servers have maintaining performance with a full 50 slot server, how on earth do all those Epoch/Overwatch/etc servers with 1,000+ vehicles, 100+ choppers, AI missions, player built bases, and 75 players even run at all? Or how about the regular DayZ mod private hives that have radically changed the server by adding 1,000's of vehicles, choppers, buildings, etc?

Shooting from vehicles (and helicopters, boats) is already possible in the ArmA3 Dev branch, although it's still being tested before the free release.

I garrentee all of you once were playing dayz mod or standalone and though of an idea. I sure have so that's why I made this post. Comment below for things you guys think is good. 1. You've all noticed that cabins don't spawn loot and certain other resident building don't spawn any either. A good idea is for every building to be able to spawn loot. Vehicles should be able to. All building should have there appropriate catagorie. 2.weapons. Here are some weapons I've though of. Melee-Bowie switchblade hachet poket knife other bladed stuff. Other improvised tools can be rake, hammer with a nail remover, gas torch used for welding. Weapons made from broken natural stuff, piece of pipe, wooden plank, metal beam, rock, large tree branch/root. Guns- for handguns a glock 18,17,30 ,browning high power,five seven,tech-9 Revolvers-colt single action army, anaconda, a .44 magnum like model 22. Submachine guns- Thompson center smg, pssh-41,Aug para(to go with the steyer Aug)ump, vector. Carbine rifles-m1 carbine Assault Rifles-ak-12,fammas f1,stg 44 Rifles-Lee enfeild, karabiner 98k, m1 garand, Remington 770,speedmaster 552 Shotguns- saiga-12,Mossberg 500 590,benelli m4 super 30,ithaca 37. Sniper rifles- vss viatorez,m24 sws,m-200 intervention. Light machine guns- mg4,m249-saw,RPD,RPK. Medium machine guns-m60 Heavy machine gun- m2 browning. That's all I can think of right now you guys think of more. 3-items.some random items I though of. Glue, nails,more clothing, more backpacks, craftable torch, watch, chains,more hats, protection glasses, fish net, fishing pole, pepper spray, radio, various car like parts, crutches, cast, lighter, bread, more canned goods, juice boxes cans bottles, nuts. There's could be more but you guys figure out I don't know everything. New ways of death- disease, cholera, flu, food poisoning, common cold. All the following infections should have a cure. Radiation poisoning. Weather- ice storm, blizzard, heat wave ect. Changes- bleeding should have different stages instead of blood gushing out(example you get shot a severe to moderate bleeding, you get punched a minor to very small bleed that's non lethal) all ammo as well as guns should have a fair balance as well as realistic(when you go in a house expect to find buckshot or 9mm, in a rich house like piano house, expect to find much more types of ammo as well as guns, but military grade loot are in military only) well that's all I can think of you can comment below on what a good addition would be i might post pictures or the weapons and guns I though about.
