angrybird9 32 Posted December 21, 2013 hi i think current version of compass is pretty useless https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR_V4KF5QDxyPK87Q76GBjTcjn5wf0MLNWVUBC0zxhBDhN3fOH3 as you can see there is some compass models for hunting and military purposes you guys should add these and also for giving directions and bearings there should be little compass attachable on weapons back or something like that. ( Binoculars - optics - wind and zeroing system ) Also i haven't saw any binoculars in standalone and im sure these will be on game soon but there is one important thing binoculars not works like automatic zoom on video cameras when you zoom in there is a blur effect because field of depth. and you can adjust Field of depth on binoculars i think u can add zeroing option on binoculars as well. http://youtu.be/TxEfy66r0G8 also im disappointed about zeroing option on weapons i hope it gets more complicated in time. Because there is no wind effect on bullets there is no horizonal bullet drop. After adding more sniper rifles etc. game going to get ruined again by snipers on city hills. Please make zeroing system more complicated and add wind factor to game its not that hard Arma 2 ace mod did that you can do that too.. Ability of one shot kill should be more hardcore. Otherwise game gonna get ruined as usual. ( Health system and blood type ) For a record i loved the improvements about health system. blood types, syringes etc ) After get shot by bullet. Bandage should not fix everything. Players should heat a knife on campfire and remove bullet if bullet still in your body. in 1 hour character die because of blood poisoning. And please add a feature as crafting poisoned or hollow point bullets that would be cool. - and thing about the blood type. What kind or person lives without knowing his bloodtype ? its so stupid please add some indicator or left bottom side message when character spawned. . Blood test kit should be for only being sure someone lying you or not :) ( ID cards, passports or dogtags as random undropable item at each spawn ) If you guys make somekindof undropable item as ID card, driving licese, passport or Dog tag unique for each player that would be fine for knowing bloodtypes, names - little random background story as jobs and thropies for bandits. That item should be lootable when character is dead or unconcious. That will add game some cool effect you can collect id cards from foes and store them as thropies.Study body option should be only for investigating reason of death. ( Draging and loading dead or unconcious players - Graves for hiding bodies ) After vehicles adding to game there should be option carry or drag bodies. ( even dead ones because looting them on ground is dangerous ) and hiding bodies must be more complicated . We should drag them to dirt surface and bury them with shovel. You can do that as crafting tents i guess when you select option bury dead body turns into grave. and every grave disappears after restart thats all. ( shooting from vehicles ) Please add gunner seat option for civlian vehicles. players o passenger seats should able to shoot and defend themselves. Im sure that feature not gonna turn game into GTA. Aiming and shooting on dayz hard eough to prevent this. ( Civilian night vision = video camera ) :) people have played outlast before understands what im talking about. That should be on dayz too. Night vision googles is high end military equipment its hard to find on dayz as its has to be. but finding video cameras in houses etc. would be great. playing dayz at night will be more playable and fun with that feature also i cant imagine how that item effects on video streamers and youtube gaming channels. They can use that as filming equipment :) like low budget horror films. ( i heard about dayz internet radio channel ) Hope thats true listening music in cars or little hand radios in game will be great. ( Repairing Cars and vehicles - mini games - lock picking ) hope repair system not as dayz mod on standalone. Add simple mini games for repairing like using screwdriver, hammering or connecting electrical circuits ) Please add car keys and hijacking system to game like picking locks etc. looting houses and military will be much fun with that try open locked weapon safes or closets would be great. :) ( Soldier zombies ) zombies not lootable yet i guees and there is no soldier zombies but when you guys add that please add a little random chance to soldier zombie still has his weapon on his back. ( heli crash announces on radios ) there was random helicopter crashes on dayz mod and standalone needs that too but they are always spawns with same pattern. please add more than 40 crash location and before 1 min heli hits the ground people got radio should hear on military channel a distress call from pilot. pilot should give their last grid location before going down. That will change games direction and give players a goal. ( find radio wait for distress call and start search for crashed heli :) ) ( Book request ) :) please add Tolkien books Lord of the rings, sirmarillon etc :) im sure there is some copyright issues about that but i want to collect and read them again in game while i waiting my friends in game :) these suggestions are most of the things i wanted :) please read it once and use them on your game im sure lots of players will embrace these. if you liked those please write comment and share your ideas... sorry for my english :) have a nice day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Subject42 20 Posted December 21, 2013 Nice ideas and i like most of them with the exception of lockpicking (too joker for me ^^) and that soldier Zombie thing... my favorites are the video camera and the whole dragging/bury bodys thing :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frytek 130 Posted December 21, 2013 Im sorry to say but use searchfunction. There is an utter shittone of suggestions about standalone, pretty sure including all you posted. Have a nice day and welcome to the forums ;) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaingunfighter 917 Posted December 22, 2013 While I agree with most of your post, getting infected and dying in an hour is bad enough (without antibiotics), now only getting an hour to live after getting shot seems to mean that taking any damage is technically certain death. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
methr1k2dop3 323 Posted December 22, 2013 goodstuff.I think you should atleast be able to shoot a pistol from a car.You will be able to accidently shoot passengers.Of course it will shatter windows.Maybe only let people drive in first person? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angrybird9 32 Posted December 22, 2013 Thanks for everyone sharing ideas and warning me for repost of similar suggestions. :) i checked more topics today and the general idea is dayz should not be simple zombie game, dayz should be a postaphocalyptic survival simulation with zombie infection features. I guess thats the answer for game developers. But i have to admit that dayz team not enough for adding all these features im not trying to say they have no skill or knowlage for this. They are not enough number on programmers and map designers. Thousands of people bought that game without thinking anything i hope they try harder to earn this and hire more professionals to improve that game. Im saying that because we waited 1 and half year for almost same map same environment and stuff. Yea they add more houses (enterable) new loot system, map system yes but thats not enough for this community and people love that game. All i want i feel lost and scared again just like i started dayz mod. After 3-4 months we memorised all maps as our hometown. ( MOSTLY CHERNARUS MAP ) we need a well designed new giant map. Here is my last suggestion for this topic ( 4 server united mechanism - There should be 4 different maps connected eachother big as chernarus. Each map has unique enviroment like desert, mediterranean , tundra ( snowy and cold like siberia ) and highlands ( like scotland, ireland ) and players able to move across from one map to another. while they switching maps there couldbe a loading screen but with dayz standalone's loading speed we wont care about that much. Im sure im asking for too much but we payed for this. everyone who bought that game knew its buggy and not complete but they paid no matter what and helped team to find bugs. Please use profit of alpha for development because dayz has much more potential than this. It can be world of warcraft of this age. Developers become rich, players become happy and everyone wins. Keep working :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
methr1k2dop3 323 Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) They want to keep chern accurate to the real place so that wont happen.Hopefully they do add another map.I would like to see some sort of suburbia. Cherno is great and all but i just cant relate to living somewhere like that.I want to see your typical American suburb with a fucking Walmart and Mcdonalds somewhere in it. I think Contagion captured this a bit. Edited December 22, 2013 by methr1k2dop3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King of kong 1117 Posted December 24, 2013 They want to keep chern accurate to the real place so that wont happen.Hopefully they do add another map.I would like to see some sort of suburbia. Cherno is great and all but i just cant relate to living somewhere like that.I want to see your typical American suburb with a fucking Walmart and Mcdonalds somewhere in it. I think Contagion captured this a bit.I've seen far too much of Yankee Suburbia. Just my opinion, but Chernarus is a more desolate and atmospheric place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
