Ability to put primary weapon "ON BACK"

[Hashisx 52]

I never played original Arma II just ACE.

But in ace you could carry who primaries , one in hand and one on back.

Can this be done? Not sure if it was already suggested.

Say AK with Hachet on back

or CZ in hand Ak on Back?

thoughts?

Agreed that it should be possible... Posted previously on the same idea.

In ace you can already put a primary on your back.

Allot of people have already asked for ACE to be implemented into DayZ.

It would make more sense to merge ACE and DayZ than to just rip elements from ACE into DayZ.

Plus it wouldn't be as rude :)

Yea miss that shoulder weapon from OFP too. Not because I want to carry more weapons, just liked the animation.

Meh, there is a lot of stuff in ace that would really make this game hard (weight causing you to pass out)with zombies chasing. Baby steps i guess.

This should have been standard. Unless my backpack was the size of a car, it doesn't make any sense that a M107 would fit inside of it anyway. Backpacks should be extremely valuable. Get the second primary weapon out of it and let us put it on our backs.

Definitely would help when choosing which target to shoot first. Now you can see his backup weapon as well. +1

Sorry, but we have absolutely no interest in DayZ.

Neither will there ever be a ACE DayZ nor will we hand out permissions to use ACE features in DayZ.

Exactly. We are just tired of reading things like ripping ACE features bla bla while making some individual ACE features did take a lot more time than making dayz in a whole.

Well I certainly hope other gaming communities are giving you exactly the same kind of consideration in return.

You forget one thing... we spare time modders are already there for a long time (years) in the series.

None of us is getting paid for making a mod like rocket. If you guys want to have features in DayZ, he is the one to ask for and the one who has to make them, not anybody else.

And our fans would be upset if we suddenly add zombies/infected/or whatever it is stuff to ACE or would put effort into it (even if we MilSim fans are currently a minority in the series).

I admire XenoACE for having the balls to post here about these things, considering this is the home of the mod they're not going to be sharing with.

Although I still feel that sharing parts of ACE as free source (under Creative Commons of course) would benefit the ARMA community in general, as well as others, I respect your decision to keep your assets as yours and yours alone.

Those of you who bitch about it should seriously just relax, it's not like DayZ is going to suffer due to a lack of these things. Hell, if Rocket and his group really need the help in adding anything, there's plenty of artists and programmers in this community that would be happy to assist with DayZ.

[Hashisx 52]

WHY is this thread getting flamed.

I DIDNT SAY RIP ACE APART AND ADD IT TO DAYZ

i said they should add a "onback" like they do in ace.

how he does it is his deal.

[Dreganius (DayZ) 55]

This isn't flaming, flaming is "FUCK U UR IDEA IS FUKIN STUPID ACE UR A FAGOT GTFO THE FURUMS U DIKHED" or something similar, which is the kind of behaviour that could get a user banned. This is just a little bit of a heated debate :P

Lucky then that he doesn't need your permission to do what he wants to his own mod.

While I applaud you expressing your intentions, or lack thereof, I am a bit surprised you would not have an interest in involving yourself with the development of the mod. It has become obvious that DayZ has helped BI out by spreading an interest about Arma, and that interest will carry over into Arma 3 and any future titles release by BI. With Arma 3 coming out in the near future, I would think you would jump at the opportunity to better the Arma community as a whole. But to each his own, and I hope your mod also has continued success.

yea, rocket can still add in features that are in ace, the only thing is that he cant copy and paste the code, and as far as i know, ace isnt copyrighted.

[Dreganius (DayZ) 55]

Pfc.William, even a mod has laws about intellectual property; DayZ has its laws about copying, and ACE is no different.

I am a big fan of ACE, but rest assured it wont be implemented into DayZ. For DayZ to work it has to be simple compared to most arma mods. ACE team wont back it, as DayZ is far too arcadey. There is simply no way the coding would be compatible in the current setup.

Stick to the basic idea of having 2 primaries. Forget ACE, which is hands down the best mod for arma 2, and needs not be tainted by the DayZ community. Sorry all, but simple truth.

Hey Xeno, and thanks for making the best mod this game has ever seen!

[Hashisx 52]

I wouldn't want ACE to be apart of dayZ like i said a few post back. It simply wouldnt work its too realistic. However this thread is about how awesome the "on back" part would be for dayz and be more ideal. If ACE team wanted to help rocket that is up for them to talk about it and not in this thread. I made this thread to show support for such a mod. How rocket does it does not matter.

I wanted to add that DayZ has some realistic ideas but is not meant to have realistic features as deep as ACE provides.

[Dreganius (DayZ) 55]

Hashisx, report your thread and ask for a clean-up of all the off-topic posts (the ones about ACE) except for the ones that aren't really negative (such as XenoACE's first post)?

I'm for the idea of your second primary weapon on your back. It would also solve the issue of backpacks nomming guns up (I've lost two MP5s AND an AKS-74u to my backpack's appetite) +1

[Hashisx 52]

Also Xeno, i love your mod and agree its not meant for DayZ
