All people have the same problem about other is friendly or not...

I think is a good idea to see in game each others names. People who have kill others players with out a rezon is a good idea the name chance color (white-yellow-red .etc) also we can use bounty hunter for that players and win some items or weapons.

Also some times in game i have find some people who help me (the other time going to dieing from starving) some one give me food, i think is a good idea and this players recommend from the other players  and the color of they names chance (white - blue - green. etc) .

Also we can create arena server and there meat people with defrends clans  or random pvp servers with period starting of the every game and wining price for the winners as military performance grades after some exp win or whatever else may everyone have suggested.

Nameplates with colors etc is something we'll hopefully never see in DayZ. It's a way DayZ will never go. For the server thing you will have to wait for modding, which will probably take a while.

Name colours based on arbitrary criteria should never be in DayZ. Nameplates should never be in DayZ.

 

Also, I haven't got a clue what it is you're rambling about in the latter part of your post, but I'm going to assume it's a shit idea, so no.

LOL...it definitely is a shit idea. But let this man have his dream...

 

You're kind of a dick, but a funny one.

Then the game fail ......... You see people turn bored fast to do the same think all the time die and start again and again from the begining.

Okay OP... Can you, in real life, see from a distance if people are good or bad? Do you know if they're good or bad by their name?

 

Your answer to both should be no unless there's something wrong with you.

[Zarniwoop 1193]

The game will not fail. People like it like this, do they not? Also ALPHEEER. Which means the game is incomplete and huge chunks of content are missing. Be patient, content will be added in parallel with bug fixing. ;)

If thet are within 5m, and a system to "Tag" them as a friend is added, and they don't wear a gasmask, itbwould be ok. No seeing it through walls.

 

Wearing masks, motorbike helms, ect, would make your name invisible, allowing you to muder your "friends" without them knowing it was you.

 

Edit: forgot to explain. You can't see their tag unless you both "tag as friend"

[kalamata488 1]

In real life you shot everywhere and kill anything you want just let me know :)

Even in real life you can't tell from anybody if he are friendly or not, you take risk.

No, i don't, but others do.

[Roshi (DayZ) 397]

No. Please no.

If we had sidechannel in game (keyboard only) it would be a lot easier to meet up with people, and do all that other fun sidechannel stuff from the mod

 

"Help, I need blood, Im in the church, I'm not a bandit" and "I'm a beginner I'm lost how do I find the coast?"  or just "Hey Ted Im waiting on the hospital roof across from the apartments, come up here, can you see me, that's me saluting, now Im jumping, Hey - someone just shot me!"

 

That was all good. I just watched the sidechannel and picked up useful info, plus some fun stuff, and real goofs and lols. And made some friends. teamspeak and mumble closes the communication down to people you already know, more or less, you don't MEET many people on a days server if you want to live long (like - all day?). The only players Ive talked to in 2 months (that's quite a few)  have been hiding somewhere, so paranoid about DEATH they just want you to GO AWAY.

 

So BRING BACK keyboard-only sidechannel - to help the noobs if you want; to talk to bandits; beg for help, OR to tell the guys in the heli you're friendly and you only want to see if its true you can shoot off a tail rotor because you've never done it before. So can you fly North please?

 

If the idea of a RADIO gets towards being implemented - could the radio give you access to sidechannel? (it would still have to be typed, or it would drive you mad). But.. that would not help the noobs a lot... Noobs NEED help sometimes.

 

Anyway - I think it added fun and interest and +gameplay. Maybe it wouldnt be "realistic" survival, but in this game you have to take off your wooly hat or your helmet to put on a head torch... so we're not 100% realistic (because thats CRAZY)... AND the rabbits howl, groan, say "shit that hurts!" and drink beer right in the same bush as me... AND I think I hear them loading rounds too.. So maybe sidechannel not so bad?

 

 SIDECHANNEL, anyone ?
