Twixx (DayZ) 39 Posted June 1, 2013 Fairly simple suggestion for standalone, if you're in shadows your visibility to zombies should decrase slightly. What do you think? It would create an interesting aspect for the game imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beastoverlord 574 Posted June 1, 2013 Some people have to play without shadows to run at a decent frame rate. This is cool, but it would just make it so fewer people could play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is cool, but it would just make it so fewer people could play.From what I've heard that in standalone there's gonna be alot of graphics that you can't modify, if shadows are always forced to be on then this suggestion is valid, if not, then it's not valid.

Clumzy (DayZ) 377 Posted June 1, 2013 Shadows do affect gameplay quite a bit, I'd at least like to see them being a server-side option to have them forced. At least on at a low setting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OrLoK 16186 Posted June 1, 2013 Hello thereId like shadow "recognition" as it affects different areas at different times of day. Could be an interesting mechanic.RdgsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIC 1050 Posted June 1, 2013 I also noticed an issue in the actual game where shadows activate on a night without moon light(night time of course) .. I'd hope this could be resolved in the Standalone.As for your idea, I believe it's already incorporated in the mod but to see it expand to be more of a stealthier approach to counteract with the difficulty of zombies and players alike, I can approve it :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
