mzltv 2281 Posted January 22, 2014 Reddit is probably the better format for this kind of thing to be honest dgeesio. Not to mention Dean has always made clear that he prefers the format of Reddit to that of a forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

victusmortuus 1074 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) I am Dean "Rocket" Hall, Creator of DayZ and submitter of Mount Everest, AMA! Edit: Dammit. I spelt the title wrong, that should say "I summitted Mount Everest" not that weird typo/grammar thing I did. I love how normal he comes across, hope he doesn't change.

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Really difficult to filter out any useful information as it is mostly fan cruft/reddit junk. This is the only couple of questions that seems slightly of interest regarding the game: Hi Rocket, thanks for the AMA.Have you considered putting something into the game that would take time teamwork and resources to achieve?I was thinking of things such as getting a power station running, fortifying buildings, Clearing a disused mine shaft etc. I don't expect these would be the best examples of what I'm trying to suggest, just some examples to give an idea.Keep up the great work.permalink [–]rocket2guns[S] 151 point1 time sidenYes, this kind of endgame stuff is quite key to what we want to do. However, in order to do this we have to perfect the architecture which is what we are doing now. Certainly I think underground bases and advanced vehicles will allow some of this really exciting and "eve" style play. Hey Dean!There have been some leaked pictures of 3d models for DayZ SA, are these legit? Can you confirm that?Also, if they are legit are these things coming soon or will they be spread over time, since the shotgun is coming very soon. How far ahead are some of these models? weeks or months?permalink [–]rocket2guns[S] 2 point50 sekunder sidenProbably. If it is the same untextured one I saw, yes. It was taken from the data files, not hard to do with dePBO. They will be in soon anyway :) Weeks, max Edited January 22, 2014 by BadAsh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Awruk 216 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) This is my message: Questions about possible features: (yes or no answer will suffice)Cigarettes/drugs? Setting people on fire using jerry cans and matches? Shooting out of vehicles or mounting guns on vehicles? Cutting off limbs (dead or alive whatever)? Nudity/sex? Tying people to vehicles and dragging them like tin cans on a wedding day?And honestly, this game is much more fun without zombies. Let's face it, it's a PvP survival game camouflaged as a zombie game. Forgot to ask about the poo but since he confirmed untextured models are going into the game I think that means poo is in.

ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted January 22, 2014 All questions that they asked Rocket were bullcrap... What would you have asked? There were a ton of great questions that he answered. Maybe take some more time to read through the "bullcrap" to find the stuff that interests you? Sure, there were a lot of goofy questions and personal stuff, but it's called ask me anything, not ask me about my job. If you were him, don't you think you would welcome the chance to talk about stuff besides DayZ for a bit? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
