That's not how you spell Diarrhoea in England, which guess what! I'm from England, shock horror! As for the rest of what ever you just sneezed onto the reply section. I'm a troll when the time is right, and getting banned on a forum? My life would certainly end if it were to happen. You have an heir of arrogance about you that I find to be both cute and pitiful at the same time, but by all means, stop 'feeding' me. I'm done with you anyway. Good day sir.

A troll is a troll, and your fancy little text adjustment isn't gonna hide that Mr. Troll. I never said your life would be 'over' if you got banned. But my life would certainly be that tiny little margin better due to the satisfaction, which I gladly welcome, however insignificant it may be. Gotta love sarcasam... the not so secret part of the troll arsenal.

I also have to go now, not because I'm trying to act like the big stwong tuff guy that has had his fill of arguments he think he won, but because I have to work Midnight shift tonight.

Night night Honey Buns. <3

Dont think every country will mobilize it's army to help evacuate a region ot at least have units to spare, imagine the helpers having enough problems they can't even think of spreading their forces.

And with all the guns that are supposed to be lying around...even armed they died and they might not even be numerous to begin with because it's a rural area. Do you think if the DayZ scenario would happen any army could mobilize that fast? It's not like they have a company in every town, the first defense would be the gun owners for the US in one case and i'm sorry to disappoint you most countries don't have the gun laws like the US and let's ignore the few illegal weapons that could be in Chernarus ( let's face it there aren't many people living over there anyway ). Now imagine yourself: no weapons, no food, your only luck was you beeing immune to the virus...actually you are the unluckiest person alive because you have to hope that everything you find is still usable, the weapons are still worling and hopefully have enough ammo. etc.

nice try and you would be right if it was not for 1 face THERE ARE 3 AIR FORCE BASES ON THE MAP = guns everywhere

But then you could easily say that once the outbreak occurred the military's first priority would be the capital city leaving behind minimal forces in the rural areas.

1 there are army tents everywhere

2 there are zombie solders everywhere

this shows there was i effort to lock down the area

3 there is no way an area with 3 air bases 3 city's and a MAJOR port would be left undefended

this would be a VERY high priority 1 because it is needed for refueling and rearming plains and choppers and 2 the port is and ideal evac area

All very good points, but it all seems pretty redundant to me as how many military weapons they include should be primarily based on how it effects gameplay.

There's always going to be a big divide on this issue as there are so many different playstyles in one game.

[JuX 72]

There is lot of unwarranted complaints here.

People seem to forget this is a survival game and if you get everything you desperately need at convenient times.

Then its not really a survival game is it? You simply have to play smart by avoiding detection and scout for other players before scavenging

However when things get really desperate. Fortune favors the bold.

[wild_man 4442]

:D I only played less than 1 week so I don't know what it was like before except from rhinocrunch videos.

I do know that this is the best FPS I ever played, even better than Counter strike.

so if it was even better before with more as50 which I never had ingame then I am sad I missed the good days of dayz.

but the bad dayz of dayz is pretty great to be honest, wut I never had, i cant miss.

I never miss :P

No. No it doesn't.

It's good that they made zombies more of a threat but the infection rate is way too high compared to the rarity of antibiotics. As for loot spawning, I think it was done to increase fps or so I heard althoughmost private hives have fixed this problem. I have found many weapons in deer stands including a m24 (with ammo). Obviously you will not find these things all the time, you just have to be lucky. The military bases you checked were obviously looted by other players before you looted them. I don't like what they did with the hospital loot though, maybe just one good old cardboard box per hospital would be better as I can never find any medical loot these days. As for the death of your month old character, finish your character before you take a month long break. The server would obviously have made some changes or cleared their databases.

[Victim187 23]

It's not meant to be fun for everyone. The creator himself calls it the anti-game.

IMO the "idiots that have destroyed gaming" are the people who want easy mode. Die and come right back where you left off with all your stuff. Follow the same steps everyone else took. "Here's your participation award" games.

I personally miss games where you died a million freakin times trying to get through it. Games where you didn't have a hundred save points in case you died. Games you never "beat" because you simply couldn't. THAT was gaming to me.

In a lot of respects even Dayz is too easy. I'll take dying 4 times an hour from infection over getting all the gear I need out of Cherno and then having nothing much to do.

Not meant to be fun for everyone? That's quite possibly the most retarded thing I have ever heard said about a game.

So why should people want to pick up the stand alone? Why the hell should they want to play a multiplayer survival game that they get absolutely no enjoyment from? The less playing, the less possible player interactions that can occur. Which is what I thought Dayz was actually meant to be about.

Forget running simulator... We'll just crawl everywhere! Well... We will crawl between military spawns and the hospital all day because who the fuck wouldn't have fun doing that?

[SalamanderAnder (DayZ) 1747]

Quick, someone call the WAAAAAAMBULANCE.

Also, why is this in suggestions? OP hasn't SUGGESTED anything. All he said is that the game sucks. Can a mod just close this stupid shit?

[liquidcactus 719]

Ive been seeing alot of people complain about the latest patch haha ^_^

[dulix11 731]

Exactly.

I wish people saying that 'The forum is full rude douchebags,' and people saying 'DayZ mod is shit fuk this game i h8 it screw this shti i hate it' would just LEAVE. Thanks for your opinion, now instead of staying here and bitching about it, take your grudges elsewhere, stop attention-whoring here and starting flame wars.

[DayzForumer 284]

Is this even a suggestion?

[rpatto92@hotmail.com 26]

Honestly I think the mods got a case of too many cooks spoiling the broth; it's splintered into so many directions that it's hard to find a version with lots of dedicated modders and a focus on more than just content and features. I think the last version of the mod I really enjoyed was the version were the blood, food and drink indicators drained based on colour; instead of the tiered step by step indicators it uses now. Since this point various version of the mod have become too unstable and even more glitchy because of the countless unchecked, features and systems they keep adding. An before anyone says stop moaning and play the version you like; there's virtually no servers left that run this version anymore, especially since the Vilayer hives crashed and burnt. Also since BattleEye can't deal with the latest wave of hacks infesting most of the servers for the last few weeks; it's almost impossible to find some middle ground.

[Dr.Duff 211]

The game is challenging again, I for one am glad it is. Adjust your playstyle.

[SalamanderAnder (DayZ) 1747]

I'm almost certain we established that it isn't. I wish a moderator would lock this thread.

[Jars (DayZ) 63]

should be here tons of antibiotics

Technically , a suggestion .

[kingochaos 131]

I took a bit o a break myself, and hve been back playing it only a short while, personaly, its still easier than some o the early patches o the mod(think scarcity o antibiotics, but with bandages ;-), that was a funny patch, luckily new spawns spawned with bandages, so it was open season :lol: All the servers are empty, yah cant find one with more than like 5 people, yah dont need ammo, the Z's are easier than the early stuff still. But there is no threat o players, cause they seem to have all quite :( But i agree, it is kinda boring/monotonous on the spawn side, there is a heap o crap that cant be used, pointless. Lets be honest people, there are more people playing origins than this, its not a good thing :( And pretending its better cause no one plays it, so you dont get killed by other players is silly.

[DirtySpartan 5]

I like the increase in difficulty but stuff needs to get balanced and loot spawns need a fix. Half of the time nothing will spawn wherever you go, and zombies infect you every 2nd hit. IMHO a mechanic to combat the infection that doesn't involve finding antibiotics needs to be implemented. The infection rate wouldn't be that bad if avoiding zombies was possible at all, since most of them will see you the moment you decide to go prone anyway.

[Dagwood 680]

I don't understand how people can argue that the latest patch makes the game too hard or impossible. Aren't you embarrassed that other people are still able to thrive and flourish while you can't go five minutes without a "broken" zed giving you an infection or knocking you over?

Yes, some of the people on here claiming that the new patch is a piece of cake are just over-exaggerating their skills, but they deserve to if you other players that are struggling won't stop crying.

And the argument that a game needs to appeal to every person that might pick it up for it to be successful is nonsense.

The devs cannot cater to every players needs and desires. Make your constructive suggestions and then get back in there and beat this game instead of waiting for the developers to do it for you

[harley001 315]

There is no suggestion in this. Just a lot of complaining.

they dont need to cater to every player... but the fact that the only populated servers are modified, should be a clue that it needs looking at. There is a balota buddies public server where i am that is full most o the time, all they have done is add a few buildings, thus increasing spawn chances. That is why people arnt playing vanilla dayz. And Z's are still piss easy, that is no exaggeration. Yah run into the middle o town, lead em into a building, run out the back, and continue looting to yah hearts content. It needs players in the server, so yah dont want to be attracting their attention to make it difficult. This is what makes dayz difficult, always has, not the Z's. In the early versions, the Z's would never lose you, you could aggro a crawler at balota, run to nwaf, go afk for 20mins, and the crawler would be gnawing on yer when yah got back. still not what made it hard, it was the other 50 players, that forced yah to be stealthy.

Its simply the spawn situation, that needs looking at, the devs should be looking at trends o players on the public hive, if they see a step change in players with a patch, they should think hard about the why(pointless listening to brown nosing, statistics are used for research, because it works). BI and dean should be watching this too. But i think the SA will not miss the mark, just with the fact they will have greatly increased the spawn spots, rather than reducing them. Hell hot spots are good, if there is good military loot, there will be gangs fighting for control of it... also good. This is what makes this game great. Not out thinking retarded ai. They greatly complicate the matter o player interaction however ;)

Ill edit in here, after watching the first five minutes o razors interview, he seems to have this well in hand for future updates.
