Timewarp (DayZ) 32 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) It's a good thing I have a pristine pare of theseDayz is without a doubt the most realistic ultimate hiking simulator on the market :) . With all the (w) pushing I do it sure would be nice if you could setup a toggle key so you could at least auto run. I don't think I have ever spent as much time consistently pressing the (w) as I have in DayZ :) still love the game though. Another thing that would be nice is "stats" it would be cool to see how many days old your character is and how many miles /km the character has traveled, rounds fired, bandages used, cans eaten etc. Edited March 7, 2014 by Timewarp 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oregonized 673 Posted March 7, 2014 It would also be cool if the forums had a search bar. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted March 7, 2014 I don't think I have ever spent as much time pressing the (w) as I have in DayZ. So basically you say that if you want to move in every other shooter you just tap w once? Everybody "runs/plays" for hours pressing the forwards key and nobody complains :huh: Somehow since DayZ became popular to the casual/console players this idea came up...not that i dislike the idea. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaughingJack (DayZ) 767 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Nah, that's WoW style...they miss Numlock-autorun-toggle... Edit: I use a broken match to fix W if I have to. Works like a charm... Edited March 7, 2014 by LaughingJack 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ep_metheus 75 Posted March 7, 2014 Beans for the stats part. I'd like to know how many miles I made my guy run across chernarus or how many zeds I've put to final rest. Some stats like "times shot" would be a cool indicator of how many times your survivor got shot and survived. I'd also like to see a stat called "Beard length" and "Top beard length" showing how long your beard is and the longest beard you've ever had (after beards are - hopefully - added). Right, Gandalf? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wo fellas, man you guys love to jump on folks, not complaining at all just suggesting :) Like you Enforcer I play multiple games as well and of course use the (w) key. I guess the difference is the constant holding down for 10, 20, 30 minutes depending on where you are running. I did a run from the coast to NW airfield a few days ago and it was a full 25-30 minutes of actually having to change fingers lol because it was starting to get to me. I think Dayz is the only game I own where I can in one setting consistently hold down a key for an extended period is all I was saying. Still fun nevertheless.

blurhitz 244 Posted March 7, 2014 I've always liked this stats idea there. It has been suggested many many times, but I love when people bring it up again because since the mod it's something I want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mssing 34 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) ..look, a rethorical question... first you make some smart ass variation of the searchnazicrap, then you keep posting in the thread ..what is wrong with you..? working hard on that post count?i think i could like the idea of a one thread forum. all users could simply search this single thread every time to find out if something already had been posted ..and then simply turn off there computers, because it already had been posted... anyway, i think player stats could be fun.

finnpalm 312 Posted March 7, 2014 How about putting player stats on a separate page that allows you to make a sweet little banner to link in your signature, displaying only the stats you want to show, along with any other relevant data like what country you're from, in-game name and so forth, as you choose? Also stats should be character specific. When you die they reset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enforcer1975 1111 Posted March 7, 2014 Yes you run a lot. For now.... Do they also want a hotkey for driving forward? Because if they do they will most probably crash when they use cruise control or are they willing to press w all the time in this case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pillock 850 Posted March 7, 2014 They should make driving realistic - so you have to use the clutch and change gear manually and stuff. And if you put a wheel on the grass at speed, you spin or roll! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
