Possible ideas for Standalone

[Marine (DayZ) 13]

Alright, so first off id like to say this game is very fun. Huge map, variation in players, servers/admins, a majority of everything is a percentage of random generation. Love it.

Im not dissing the game i could continue to play it how it is when its released on standalone. But since I know there is some competition with another company to set yourself apart. Please keep the realism in all items, damage to yourself and other players and definitely have to keep that curiousity going. "hmm wonder what I can find on this side of the map today, wonder if I can find any new weapons or items ot use."

So one thing I noticed is there is a fair amount of weapons on this game but you have to take them how they are. It would be awesome to have some customizable parts. Maybe if I found a 50 cal sniper rifle I could find thermal scope parts for it or even a supressor to attach. Of course there are its downsides, thermal scopes are a bit heavier. Suppressors wont cause as much damage and tends to increase bullet drop. But its silent. Or maybe even finding camo material to put on your AS50 would be pretty cool. just little extras to add to your M4 or AK even spawned at a fraction of a percent, it gives people EVEN MORE to look for and HOPE for when they are looting. It really is the LITTLE things that count in a game.

I must say its real hard to make any friends on this game if you dont already know people. In saying that, the "study body" option doesnt seem to work great. when the body is being studied, would be cool if it finished the examination with who they were killed by or instead how they were killed. injuries sustained, gunshot/axe/knife wounds, or just eaten alive LOL.

And a quick note as far as server teleporting goes. Cant stand when your sniping someone and they turn a corner disappear for 5 minutes only to show up behind you because they joined a new server to get behind you in the current one. I think the servers need to save player coordinates. That way each individual server that you joined would have seperate coordinates for your character. No way could you join two different servers to teleport yourself, it would also get rid of any of those who seem to have dupped or hacked weapons stashed in tents or vehicles that cant be destroyed just to transfer items over. Well, at least it would make it a much more tedious process.

1 other big problem i see is people leaving the servers and just joining right back with the same names. Its hard to track other players that way. Its way to easy of a process to just change your profile name. Should be something thats fairly permanent or requires some registration. That name or email should be linked to the players ingame GUID. That way when I message a server admin I can at least tell him who the right person is.

Im sure i touched on things that have already been noted. I dont have the time to read through every post to see what everyone has posted. These are just what I thought would make the game that much more fun and that much less frustrating.

And I havent given my proper thanks for this mod.

Thank you Rocket.

I basically ordered and built a new PC just because of this game. My ps3 is now a paperweight. Zombie Survival MMO, amazingly fun.
