radarhead 3 Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Hello everyone, I am a presenter on the GameOverCast team a weekly enthusiast video gaming podcast.We are going to Gamescom next week and are lucky enough to get to see, and get to chat to the Dean "Rocket" Hall about Dayz Stand alone. Last year we had an excellent interview with Dean Hall in episode 108.I have personally lost hundreds of hours to Dayz and have lots of questions lined up but would love to ask some directly from the fans. If you have anything you would like us to ask please could you post them in this thread and we will do our best to ask as many of them as we can.I will post a link to the podcast and the time where we feature the game once we get back, we will be seeing over 40 games so it may take a few shows before we feature all of them.If you guys fancy checking out the show, we have just put up our Pre-Gamescom special, probably worth listening too, Dayz Standalone is mentioned as one of our main games to see.Let me know what you want to know!

Skat3rat 1633 Posted August 18, 2013 What type of bolt action rifles will be in SA? I'm really hoping that the Mosin will be in SA because I love that weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airfell 179 Posted August 18, 2013 Will there be something to regulate the number of players per server? Being able to see how many are on a server can dictate a persons playstyle, however not being able to raises immersion due to lack of intel on how many people are about. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 18, 2013 Weather. Any plans for the weather.Yup, I second this. I've heard a few mumblings about weather but I'd love to know what the longer term plans are for making it more important to actual gameplay. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mick17 93 Posted August 18, 2013 Yup, I second this.I've heard a few mumblings about weather but I'd love to know what the longer term plans are for making it more important to actual gameplay.I third that.

thehero 119 Posted August 18, 2013 Will we be able to sneak up and knock people out with a brick or the butt of your gun for instance. That way you can easier rob or restrain a player Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
svisketyggeren 662 Posted August 18, 2013 about weather...ever noticed how 50%ish of the servers runs 24hour daytime, and about 50% of the servers with nighttime have only full moon nights.My guess is that the carebears making up the majority of the dayz community only wants bright daylight and couldnt care less about any other weather making the game to hard or scary for them...

FrostDMG 398 Posted August 19, 2013 Q: How big is the DayZ team and will it expand after release of Arma 3?thanks 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considering I would be in pretty much complete control over what hours I was out and about during a zombie apocolypse, I don't see the issue here. On the topic of weather, I'd love to see rain, snow, and fog. Maybe other things as well... would a thunderstorm get all of the zeds riled up?

Those servers that are being paid for by people other than you would prefer to have players in them despite the demands of realism elitists. Most of those players don't enjoy playing inside a cardboard box. Day/night is a different topic than weather anyway. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dulix11 731 Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) How big would you estimate the download size be for DayZ, and how internet hungry will it be? EDIT: I only realise mistakes after I post.

Statik (DayZ) 2695 Posted August 20, 2013 How much are they focusing on making DayZ a survival simulator, relative to the current style of play (i.e. easy military loot). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
