-Military weapons should be rare,but civilian/ammo should be uncommon+add very rare canned goods.

[pycco 38]

it would be nice to actual care if you find something, not just oh another X.

[tobias winfro 305]

Military weapons should be rare, civilian stuff should he a bit more common, shotguns pistols, rifles and when we get them, I hope vehicles are rare too. If not rare than make petrol/gasoline almost non existent because that should be one of the first things to run out in an apocalypse.

[Element47 2480]

pristine condition items - especially weapons and attachments - should be ultra-rare. ammo should be as rare as mountain dew/radios in the early days of the mod. hunger should be unforgiving, forcing you to hunt and gather. disease should affect your aim, your stamina and your health. zombies should be merciless, making stealth always the better option and forcing you to crawl through the cities instead of running.

 

btw, regarding rarity of items, i think point 1 and point 6 should be merged.

[Grimey Rick 3417]

I want to have to eat my shirt.

[Electi 149]

More disease, more struggle, more junk and home-made items, make those damn military things be so fucking rare as rainbow in dayz(we have no rainbow for now)

[minime1000 78]

As long as the game is in 3rd person you really cannot make the game that hard. But I guess radiation zones and stuff would be cool.

How so? It gives you a tactical advantage in PVP but third person will have no effect on disease, zombies, and other PVE aspects. 

[Survivor_Ted 269]

I basically want both guns and ammo to be really rare, savor your bullets, use hand-to-hand!

 

Ammo should be spent in dire need or in hunting, not wasted on T-shirt wearing coast men.

[Chaingunfighter 917]

My ideal DayZ endgame would be finding that one ruined kitchen knife that there are only 1-2 of across the entire public hive (What's that, you want a gun? Bahahahahah).

 

 

No, but seriously, the game should be a bit harder.

[Jvalor 59]

I don't know, I would just like my main fear of dying to be because of zombies and/or starvation. Not a trigger happy mental asylum escapee wearing a red child's backpack...

[HIHBGaming 14]

To survive should be brutally hard. The environment in itself should kill you if you're not careful. Guns and equipment should be hard to find and looked at as being lucky to even have a pistol let alone ammo for it.

[gibonez 3633]

I want bone crushing difficulty.

 

I want to have to do some math on a paper and look at a dope chart that I hand drew before I can attempt to shoot a person past 300 yards.

 

I want every single bit of the game to be as close to real life as possible using video game limitations.

[ld-airgrafix 403]

How hard? I would like to at least once die from starvation or thirst not from a full clip out of an m4. I would like to at least once die from a zombie horde that cornered me due to my bad judgment, and not by a single athletic zombie.

And you would shoot a person from 300+ yards, why? Was he a threat, did he have that one can of beans which you really needed because you were going to starve to death? You would risk loosing that bullet which could save your life later on, why?

Oh sorry my apologies i thought we were playing apocalyptic survival game not a pvp war game. Please go on.

[oldmanwina 0]

I would like a mix.

Its nice having a regular char to knock around with your mates no real struggle just enough to make fire fights at least something to think about.

I would however love hardcore to be HARDCORE! always scratching for ammo make canned food rare so hunting and gathering are necessary but subsistence.

Make every water source except well's require charcoal tabs or boiling.

Make ammo so rare that the idea of shooting but not hitting is almost untenable unless your char has been around for weeks.

I'd really like it to sting when you're guy dies and you contemplate the weeks it will take get back to that kit out

far more efficient to get your supplies from another player.

 

Looting takes far too much time.

Yeah but if the game was bone crushingly hard as you suggest you want then the zeds who will be drawn by your 300 meter bandit shot will most likely eat your ass.

If you say ill shoot them out in the wilds away from zeds ( shouldnt really be anywhere to far away from zeds most of the pop should be zeds meaning hoards roaming all over the place) would your return for food survival have been better spent shooting a deer which will have more food on it than some other starving survivour.

 

Oh sorry i forgot you want a hard realistic death match army game not a zombie survival one never mind carry on..

:/ killing people is how I would survive.

 

People are walking treasure chest + if cannibalism is added they would provide sustenance.

[Irish. 4886]

The game should be fun to play. Just like the mod was.

 

That is all.

True if they add canaibisim ( and if they make the game really hard eg canned food is miracle find then they should add it) then id say yeah legit tactic but if we cant eat people and its that hard to survive it most likely be a waste of a bullet as they wont be treasure chests as they are now...

 

I guess we wait and see how far they push the game if it gets to that level i can say yeah i might resort to eating people if need be lol..

It seems me and you want a similar game, however 99% others want pvp death match with lasers and superguns, unfortunately devs will take their side as thats where the money is.

Lasers and super guns ?

 

I am pretty sure the amount of people asking for high end military gear are in the minority.

 

People are quite happy with the civilian focus.

Well the helicopter threads are pages long and fiream weapons threads heavily outnumber melle weapons threads.
