DayZ must fix its basis!

[yamiks 6]

OK, so i had been given opportunity to play WarZ and i saw some differeances that dayz should have had long time ago!

(i made Warz review in my YT channel if you want then go and check it out)

So what should have been:

1.AI : this should have been the first that got fixed, but whats wrong w/ it? -> :

1.1. zombies still walk indors or on certain surfeces.

1.2. zombies still cant walk on certan surfeces.

1.3. zombies still have problems w/ hearing you shooting guns(from pistols to snipers).

sometimes some zombies wont get attracted when you shoot(for example : lee) near them.

1.4. big cities(like cherno) dont have as many zombies as smaller ones(like kamenka,balota and so on...)

(dont give me this bullshit about dangers of cherno cuz there are more players..imagine real world : where will be more zombies in your countries capital or some city just outside that capital?!)

1.5. it would be more fun if there were different types of zombies(example: some who hear much better and others who see better!)

1.6. walking on concrete or asphalt or any other solid surface should not attract zombies more than when you are in grass or smth(running may make more sound but walking shouldnt!)

2. loot should be sorted better:

2.1. in warz i saw that it was much harder to find weapon and ammo so dayz should definitely reduce % of chance spawning any ammo and weapons on civilian houses

2.2. there should be more melee weapons OR bigger chance to get one(and you should be able to hit zombies w/ flashlight!)

2.3. you should be able to refuel your car or chopper from gas station not any big barrels (or whatever they were called)

2.4. ammo clips should be able to be split or joined together w/ other ammo clips(like make full clip of makarov from 2 half empty clips) and ammo should be able to be spawned in less than full clips(like 2 bullets of whole revolver clip)

i realise that devs ar e already implementing this but cmon... this is one good feature to have right now..

Well this is kinda short list of mine that i like to see made in next version of dayz

BUT i rly want to see big changes in AI cuz right now dayz is more like game where you gather loot and try n kill ppl + some zombies not zombie apocalypse survival!!

also here is quit old topic where i put my ideas for dayz http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/83482-suggested-updates/#entry787534

all of this is getting addressed in the Standalone version. If you like WarZ better, or it has more features you enjoy then go play WarZ.

Or another alternative would be to learn a programming language, make a game, and add these yourself. You are also free to learn a scripting language and mess with a game that allows modding.

Everything that you said are being done, but it wont be similar to War Z, I can assure you that. You wont be hitting people with flashlights.

i dont want dayz to become warz.. or anything like that i said that i got some expiriance form it when you couldnt find good loot like dayz and compare how different dayz could be if some of my ideas was implemented

still i would love to see atleast 2 things...more zombies and better AI

[jaytmuk (DayZ) 621]

Zombie ai? Climb on top a vehicle (which you cant fix or drive in warz) in Warz to escape the zombies :P

yeah thats funny but not that what im talkin about.. im talkin about dayz zombie ai.. warz was just best comparison i could imagine.. well its shitty so... yeah

[Fraggle (DayZ) 15720]

As a programmer yourself I'm sure you can understand the limitations involved with creating a mod. As an example, the zombie AI is using modified soldier AI, hence the strange behavior sometimes.

All of the issues raised are being addressed in the SA so no need to worry ;)

Also, the standalone is just around the corner, so not long to wait! Look alive gentlemen!

[indominator 95]

if you are a programmer you can help devfelop dayz mod, ask fraggle about it, if you want, not forcing.

well i hope you dont think im some sort of gteat dev or anything.. im just a guy 19 years old still in school and i have almost no experiance in workin w/ team or w/ real games developing.. and still i think i got pretty good skill set to be called a programmer
