Matches & other thoughts/suggestions

[sqpantz 0]

Make the likelihood of finding matches the same as finding the axe. I have been scavenging for what seems an eternity and have yet to come across any matches, but the hatchet seems to be spawning as frequently as empty tin cans. Seriously WTF? Am I gonna have to travel from the north back to the hobo-can fires in Cherno to cook these damn steaks?

Make groups of players, especially those traveling in tightly formed packs, slightly more prone to aggro zeds. Seems a way to tweak the advantage groups automatically have over lone wolves.

I would like to see the long range / sniper type weapons tweaked a bit, maybe through drastic reduction in availability & ammo. Perhaps player killing would be a bit less likely if you couldn't snipe someone from across the map, but instead you're forced to at least engage other players in more close quarters type combat, if killing other players is your goal.

I would love to be able to play as a zed (perhaps only after dying to zombie attack) and be able to blend in with the AI zeds and then pounce on the unsuspecting survivors. This would force players to respect every zed they come close to for fear of them being a player & not AI. I for one at least would feel better about being killed by another player if he was a zed kicking my ass as opposed to a sniper killing me camped high atop of a hill/building 800km away.

Some way to replace large quantities of blood for lone wolves. Perhaps a rare wild (and ideally dangerously lethal) animal in the woods that can replace blood to full when it's meat is cooked & consumed.

Just some random thoughts of mine. Certainly most will hate them and they're probably not even possible in some cases due to engine limitations but whatever!
