DO Not Shrink the Slots in Clothes in Update 1.26!!!

[Tonyeh 454]

I like the idea of the slots being reduced. Very much so...and it should have been done years ago. Nobody should be walking around with an M-16 in their trousers and a Glock in their T-Shirt and a Mosin in their backpack. It's fucking stupid.

And while your at it Devs, make the fucking zombies lethal again. It's absolutely ridiculous that the main antagonist in the game cannot kill the player.

Thanks. 🙂

Yeah.... Its silly hearing people say: ~"don't worry, ill get up in a minute, they wont kill me". Infected with rage npcs just give up their rage when the target is lying. If so then why are they attacking us when we're standing/lying completely still? But this is not enough. Game also needs an adjustment to the detection mechanic. Currently infected are not good enough in getting those who make biggest noise. And their intelligence when it comes to finding players who throw items at them? That's even more funny.

That's my strat when there's too many of them.

Why fight 10 of them 1 on 1 and risk losing a lot of blood/bandages/hp when I can just run into the crowd, get hit 5-6 times instantly and go uncon immediately.
They disperse and I wake up with more blood/bandages/hp than I would have had if I fought them and then I run to safety.

No one likes? That's a lie. On this very board there are people who like the idea of reducing slots (including me) and people who dislike that. Let's be at least semi-objective, ok? And so what that some servers will have to make adjustments? Its always like that for server owners. Always was. You new?

Not sure why you would want your inventory to be smaller. Bad idea and game ending for me. Our server will not be upped again. Just going to let it die. 100s of hours waisted in setting things up and adding buildings and all. Just for them to trash the game.

Learn to adapt and overcome i guess. For me its not a problem at all. This game changed so much since its started - there are people who still play mod and alpha because they liked them more. Nothing bad about that. But the main game will change with time.

This so called update feels like a step backwards. I just feel for me its now not worth my time. I know of others that are also stopping because of the way they are changing the game. I don't miss it at all, plenty of other games out there.

how does reducing inventory trash the game? All it does is force the player to be more discerning regarding the loot they carry; can't carry every little thing in the game for every contingency. Next, they should make it so you can't full sprint when carrying a field bag full of loot, and can't run straight up steep hills. The game should be harder, that is a step in the right direction.

we have stats for that - steam charts for example. Everything will be crystal clear in a year or so.

Making the game harder is just going to make the casual gamer leave. The only ones left are the nolifers that spend hours daily in the game.  The casual gamer group is larger than the people that can spend hours daily in a game. 

[nemorus 254]

A small example: having less items = more stamina, which gives casual player bigger chance to escape from sticky situation. Also, lets not forget that official servers have no more than 2% of whole market. 98% is private initiative, mostly modded. And mods allow for custom number of slots. So tell me - how is dayz gonna lose anything?

I see the community base hasn't changed to much in my absence, be it, just new faces.

You'd have the devs sacrifice what makes the game unique in order to appeal to a wider audience? Dayz isnt designed for the casual gamer, but there are plenty of community servers to accommodate those kinds of players. IMO you shouldn't be able to accomplish all that Dayz has to offer in a matter of hours, meaning it might take a few sessions to progress your gear, put together a car, or start a base. You should build stashes if you can't handle an inventory reduction. A stash in a freshy town with a fishing rod setup will allow you to essentially skip the early game struggle that casuals often get stuck on. The better you get at the game, the more you'll realize it isn't nearly as hard as you think and that inventory space isn't much of an issue. Also, I don't know of many casual players that bother posting on forums of the games they play.

great arguments dude...

[stormhaven 11]

I agree with the op in this one it's been this way for some 15-20 years leave it as is  the only people who love the nerf are the pvp idiots who can't survive without killing someone this is just stupid doesn't make the game harder or add more difficulty to the game just makes the gane more tedious

I agree its not a challenge, its just gonna make collecting what you need to accomplish anything slower. its artificial difficulty meant to slow you down

having to make 2 trips looting instead of one isnt fun to overcome, i didn't learn any new skill or overcome some crazy adventure. if I'm looting for build supply or car parts I'm playing stealth anyway so spending more time doing that means less player interaction.

when I go out doing "chore looting" I'm not doing any of the fun things that make people play dayz. (being a cannibal raider)

if they really wanted to nerf the amount of ammo and crap people carry they should just increase its weight

Agree...

If you look at the latest videos of "Wobo", there are many more negative comments than positive ones.
At least reduce a little some kits that take up an exaggerated place, such as the "Weapon Cleaning Kit" and the "Leather Stitching Kit".
And there are mods that increase the available slots, but not to decrease them... this shows what the real need of the players is.

The Weapon Cleaning Kit SHOULD take up a fairly large amount of space. It is one of the most valuable/useful items that you can find. The ability to repair a weapon is HUGE. 

I like the smaller inventory. It forces you to be very careful about inventory management. And it makes things a bit more realistic. Prior to the change you could carry far too much stuff in your "pockets". Now you have to make important decisions about what to pick up and what to leave behind. It is a post-apocalyptic survival game, after all. Not a Battle Royale or something. All of Bohemia Interactive's best known titles are Mil Sim type games that focus on punishing levels of realism and depth of mechanics. And that's what I love about them. 

Community servers that want to enable larger inventory sizes will be able to. And your comment about there only being mods that increase inventory, but not mods that decrease it, is false. There are many mods and server settings that allow a more hardcore survival experience. Such as very limited inventory. And just because one crowd whines more, and is more vocal than another, does not mean anything, other than there are a lot of kids that want things to be more easy. But that doesn't align with DayZ's theme or philosophy. 

Millions of people stuff their faces with McDonald's cheeseburgers while swigging soda and smoking cigarettes every day. That doesn't mean that McDonald's is the best food. It just means that there are a lot of lazy people that would rather stuff garbage down their throats than take the time to cook themselves a delicious,healthy, home-cooked meal. This analogy works for what DayZ is. DayZ's core philosophy is that delicious,skillfully prepared, home-cooked meal. But there are people that just want to run around and loot without a thought and blast away at each other, while ignoring all of the survival elements and inventory management. I can't help but think they got lost on their way to Rust, or something. 

I love that Bohemia has kept DayZ true to its roots and haven't turned it into some ridiculous nonsense mess. Like Rust.

This was not thought through to the end. it is not balanced out. they have saved themself the work of customizing all items. to add additional pockets to the clothing. above all: I can still have a rifle in my backpack and pull it in the short-cut. Car tires also fit in a backpack. or tree trunks. I have the parts in the hands and I have to walk. If I have it in my pocket, I can sprint. as I said: Once again, it's just simple change and not thought through to the end. What a pity

i like to use the map+compass, gps, binoculars, rangefinder... just for fun and because binoculars, scopes rangefinder have a different range of view. add 2x bandages, chloride, multivitamine... lt`s 20 space. +2 mags, +repair kits, +batteries, +food, +heatpack.....

and believe me .. anything people can`t carry away now will be destroyed, for sure.
