Rogue-ldr1 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Developers In order for this game to stand out from the crowd of post apocalyptic games, please look at the following:1. Combat realism, if you were to hit someone in the head with a bat, hammer, pipe wrench, etc.. It would do severe damage and not take 10 blows to kill them or knock them unconscious. This having to repeatedly hit someone and some thing is annoying. So much I almost feel like I have wasted the money.. 2. Items that you find when searching through houses etc... I looked through 4 houses and found one item... It was a rotten banana which was useless. There was no forks, paper, belts, clothing, etc... Need to have more realistic items and have more items available.. If one goes into the barn, there should be the typical items a farmer would have and you should be able to also dismantle things to get additional items such as wire and pieces of metal glass etc, to create other things... I should be able to pick up a trash can lid and a leg of a chair and use it for bashing and protecting myself... Why cant you pick up things out of the houses like blankets and the really annoying I see a fur on the floor and I'm cold, why can't I use it??? Animal trophies in the house but can't grab the antlers to use. No kitchen knives, forks and a can opener. What the heck, why can't I find a can opener??? Agh!!! I think you get the point...

hogscraper 328 Posted January 10, 2014 You can't find the loot because its already gone. Most of the houses north of the coast are untouched on many servers. I never find anything close to spawn. As for combat realism its more that you aren't hitting them in the head and the melee system needs more work. The hammer is almost impossible to kill someone with because few blows will land and its damn near impossible to land a head shot from what I've seen. You talk about realism but I doubt you've ever seen someone fight with something like a pipe wrench. Fighting with something like that is almost guaranteed to get your ass stomped by someone using their fists. No one is going to stand there trading blows with you and its not like you will ever hit anything but their body or their arms. I've seen some crazy ass fights on the street and only once did I see a guy get hit in the head with anything. Since you can't dodge all that well in the game, and since you can't tackle a guy with a pipe wrench and ram your thumbs in his eyes, its the compromise they have to make. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrumpyGat (DayZ) 497 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Jesus this game is in alpha, how about you reformat your post as a suggestion instead of a fucking whiny complaint. The game is currently stable, and the devs are working hard with their new found $12m in sales to make sure that it will blow people away. Those little finite details are great as suggestions, but they wont likely be integrated until the final stages of development.

rickenbacker 190 Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) I only have one realism complaint: How come I'm wearing another t-shirt under my t-shirt? And how come I can't tear my second t-shirt up for bandages, even if I'm bleeding to death? Edited January 12, 2014 by Rickenbacker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While most of us couldn't care less, there would still, instantly be hordes of naked players running around towns and that would be far greater to the not-realistic side.
