the13th (DayZ) 32 Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) . Although women can join the army in many countries none of them allow women to be where the bullets are shot. I'm 100% sure that this is something they will fix until the standalone and nothing to talk about.Im afraid you are wrong there. There are many front line women, also in the air force (i specifically remember F-15E units), they are also in the AH-64 units, many air roles. I personally have worked alongside women JTAC's somewhere warm and sandy, and there was plenty of lead in the air. They are just as capable.From 2011 - http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/04/05/flying-combat-landing-history/ Edited January 17, 2013 by the13th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
victusmortuus 1074 Posted January 17, 2013 Do female characters have smaller hitboxes in this game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted January 17, 2013 Why is it an option for servers NOT to have girl characters available? Let the lesbian comments fly (sigh) but I'm a chic and most people who get to know me think its cool there are a few lady dayz'rs out there - why do I have to play as a dude?Don't ask me, a lot of players like to play female characters for obvious reasons ( 99,9% players who bought / will buy tomb raider are male ) so i wonder why they have ben removed...

Snilex 40 Posted January 17, 2013 Im afraid you are wrong there. There are many front line women, also in the air force (i specifically remember F-15E units), they are also in the AH-64 units, many air roles. I personally have worked alongside women JTAC's somewhere warm and sandy, and there was plenty of lead in the air. They are just as capable.From 2011 - http://www.foxnews.c...anding-history/I was hoping I was wrong.Never said they aren't capable. Just said that no country(With not so much fact though). Until now I hadn't heard any country allowing women to be on the front line where soldiers die.Snilex - its a game kiddo. I'm not looking for historical reason - the game has an option to have a girl character - I paid for the damn game just like you did, but the majority of servers have shut off the option to have a girl character. If it werent an option it would be a no brainer and nothing I would mention but there ARE people out there who want to play girl characters - again - who paid GOOD MONEY for the game and aren't getting what was offered.Some servers have done that yes, but isn't that there right to have their own rules on their own servers they pay their own money to keep up? If you got an opinion about it, then talk to the owner of that server. The server I'm on also shut that option off because people started to whine when they couldn't use ghillie suit if they had a female character skin. And you say you don't care for the ghillie suit, but trust me the world isn't spinning around you and what you think. Other people do exist too you know.Short said, their servers, their rules, don't like them? Look for a new server. If you can't swim, don't jump into the pool.Also, the thread is useless since they WILL fix the bugs around the female skins. No need to go radical feminism on it all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously they have thought to having femae characters in the game since they actually put that option into the game. You are just whining because some servers(Nothing that the devs can control) turn of that option. So your "suggestion" is invalid, you HAVE choice to play on a server that gives you the option to play a female character, no one is forcing to play on one server that doesn't have the option.Can someone please lock this thread? It's meaningless. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) ^^It's not meaningless, it's perfectly okay to complain about how many private servers are removing good content from the game. If one or two private servers removed friendly fire it would be okay, but all private server systematically began removing friendly fire, you'd see a lot of threads about that topic too.There's a few reasons I can think of why they are disabled.Either because PvP players can't wait the four extra seconds it takes to load up and click on the selection screen or because the selection screen can be exploited to spam respawn to select a better spawn point. I find it annoying when you see someone killing himself over and over 3-4 times in less than 10 seconds.Someone compared the male and female skin side by side and they are virtually the same size, so it isn't about hitboxes, it's not about females not being able to use ghillies/camo, because that's the choice you're forced to accept at the moment, when you chose a female skin.I think it's BS too, but since we're talking about private servers, it's difficult to do anything about it.

(amongst others) are not relevant to your 'suggestion'. Such comments only demonstrate your mental immaturity.Not even going to address your second point for obvious reasons.Finally you only ever indicated a suggestion, you never actually made one. On top of that if we assume your suggestion is "make female characters a compulsory option" Snilex addressed that nicely.I'm sure the SA will cater to the niche of people that cannot play as a male character for whatever 'issues' they may have with doing so.4/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted January 17, 2013 My partner was annoyed when the chick skin disappeared and so was i because i had got used to seeing her as 'her' and now she is some shady looking dude with sideys that i just cannot click with. No need for the skin to not be available atm. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morgan32 403 Posted January 17, 2013 cant do it. Maturity is horribly overrated.Maturity is useful if you want to not look like a kid. I can clearly see you don't want to be mature and I wont comment on that. Go find a server with female skins activated and enjoy yourself there, because the developers of DayZ can't do much with private hives that have them disabled, so making a suggestion wont help anything.I suggest to lock this, it's taking a turn for the worse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
