zombie scent spray and more

[apache25 133]

idea: let players take blood from zombie corpses to spray on themselves which could let players walk among zombies for 10 minutes. add reinforcable cars such as adding bullet proof wind screens and armoured plating on the side. stores in villages with 2 tins of beans hidden in the backroom and 4 hidden in the front room plus 4 cans of pepsi. add camping shops in the city with 2 water bottles 2 hunting knives and 10 packets of water purification tablets. abandoned military convoys with 2 DMR'S and 4 MRE'S and 2 DMR mags and military zombies in the surrounding area. add create player screen were players can choose to wear hoodies/jackets shirts/t_shirts hats/hoods jeans/cargo pants. players should spawn without a bullet proof vest vests should be found in police stations or military bases. add more realistic weapon damage example 2 shots with a pistol to a player without kevlar=dead. 4 shots from a DMR to a kevlar vest player=dead. the ability to punch or kick zombies. add underground shelters that are hidden in forests with 12 tins of frank and beans 2 hunting rifles and 4 boxes of bullets and 12 cans of pepsi and 5 piles of wood 5 boxes of matches and a water bottle. gunshots . if zombies see the corpses of their fellow infected they should hold their ground untill you start running or shooting. ok thats all please dont complain about my grammar because it only makes you look like a complete douch bag

douchebag in 5..4..3..2.

gunshots should not attract zombies firing weapons should frighten a few zombies and make them scatter. if zombies see the corpses of their fellow infected they should hold their ground untill you start running or shooting.

I don't think you appreciate the concept of a mindless killing machine...

Don't complain about grammar? For the love of god you couldn't even spell it right. Civilization is based on the fact that we can communicate through language and you want me to not care that you're trying to destroy that? You know you've made mistakes so you're clearly not ignorant of your pathetic English, it just comes across as pure laziness.

GOD DAMN WALL OF TEXT.

[Beanus 61]

From what I skimmed through on this I assume you haven't heard of the search system?

[apache25 133]

great just great.....more people complaining about fucking grammar fucking idiots i may not have perfect grammar but some people dont have perfect grammar but thats the way it goes its a fact of life so go back to picking your nose yankee/british/german/japanese/russian/aussie/alien/gorilla/ape/ douch bags

[apache25 133]

schrapple i know i have made grammar mistakes but this forum is not for whining about grammer its about reading suggestions and saying what you think about them not picking on people about grammar

[schrapple 119]

If you're too lazy to at least attempt to use correct spelling and grammar on a public forum then don't complain that people criticize you.

[apache25 133]

schrapple not everybody has perfect grammar thats the way it goes get used to it

[Dat Bushmonster 17]

You're even apologizing for it! Don't try to defend yourself for fucks sake!

These so called "ideas" are bullshit anyways or already have been suggested. Learn to use the search function properly.

And schrapple got my beans for dat one special post!!

It's not that it's not perfect, it's that it is so bad it's barely recognisable as English. The whole point to a text based forum is to convey your ideas in written form, if what you write is nearly unreadable then you are just wasting everybody's time.

how? i may not have perfect grammar but telling me does not help

Warning you that your posts are nearly unreadable and put you across as imature which will result in the vast majority of people dismissing them instantly isn't helping? Childish writing will prevent you from being taken seriously.

I second this.

People make come as being arrogant when they nitpick on your spelling, grammar and syntax but you must not take it as a personal attack. Especially not by replying in an off-topic manner to your own topic to try and "show them who's boss".

It's something to make a typo or to misspell a certain word repeatedly, it's another altogether to write lik dat and expect people to try and figure out the quirks and specifics of what amounts to your own personal language.

So, to be on topic:

->Zombie spray; No

->Customizable vehicles (pimping); might be cool (note that "being cool" can often be detrimental to your survival, hence, contrary to the direction DayZ and the coming standalone might try to take)

->More store specific loot like hunting gear or military surplus shops; Good idea. Needs balance (you need to learn about loot tables).

->Military convoy "crash sites"; so, the equivalent of an helicopter crash site but low-med level military grade loot? Cool.

->Player customization screen; considering you think it would be more fun to play dress-up OUTSIDE of the game itself, I'd shoot down your idea if it ever came up on the board (and I had a say into what goes and what gets cut away)

->Kevlar and armor vests don't work the way you think. Look into them and come talk again.

->Better melee system; knocking out zombies instead of being lethal (and loud) or simply pushing them pack (without affecting them). Sort of a good idea. It really changes how DayZ/The Standalone would play. No objection but not in favor.

->Zombie hungry, zombie heard sound, sound mean food, food mean zombie no hungry no more... run away from food? I suggest you read into zombie logic. Check you local library and ask where the Undead section is.

P.S. Did someone ever tell you how horrid your phrasing itself is?

[apache25 133]

self phrasing? i dont remember self phrasing

[Bearded McGee 121]

Dude, if English isn't your first language, just goddamn say it.

Stop putting your foot in your mouth.

People are trying VERY HARD not to be absolute jerks, but I can tell you, it's frikkin' hard.

whats your beef with me?

[apache25 133]

people just love being jerks about grammar

Only to you, think about that.

Pre-made loot takes out the excitement and rarity of chance. If you go to a store and you already know whats there, it will be boring as all shit to go looting, you just go there get the shit you know is there and go to the next pre planned place. Random loot is key.

Also, of course zombies will be attracted to gunshots and will run at you. The idea these people are concious yet infected to make them want to kill and eat people is redundent. If a person was concious, they wouldnt go around killing people, they are mindless reanimated corpses that have only the primal urge to feed.

The idea that spraying zombie blood on you would make them think it is you is also redundent. Not only does it seem needlessly overpowered(as if bullets werent enough against a bunch of walking corpses) it also doesnt tie into the sensory organs that zombies use in dayz currently, only sight and hearing.

And finally, please fix your grammar and structure before this becomes a 5 page thread of flammers coming at you for poor grammar and structure.

PEACE OUT!

1. The zombie blood thing I don't really think will work all i have to do is kill a zombie put his blood all over me and there 10 minutes of free time then when I'm at 9 minutes kill another one and put its blood on me and i have another 10 minutes.

2. The car idea is good Rocket talked about this in an interview though so no point in making the suggestion.

3.There's already stores in the game and they contain a lot more food and such, if your talking about small villages there's food spawns in residential buildings.

4. Camping stores are a cool idea i would like to see those with canteens hunting knifes and a possible tent spawn.

5.Those abandoned military spawns would be highly sought after, with those many weapons i say no. However if they took out some of the static military loot spawns and made these as rare/rarer than helicopter crashes then possibly.

6. Player customization Rocket has already talked about this it will be implemented.

7. Players don't spawn with bullet proof vests, I do like the idea for them but there are huge topics about this idea.

8.More hand to hand combat is a good idea however more risk for damage from zombies.

9.Underground shelters are coming in standalone. Players will be able to create them and stock weapons in them.

10. I don't agree with your zombie ideas, Zombies if within range of gunshots should turn towards the way they came and begin to walk there if you drop a few of the zombie that just means your shooting more and more zombies are coming 360 degrees around you. Zombies should follow the sounds of Helicopters cars and gunshots so for example if a clan flies over Cherno and goes to the northwest airfield zombies that they pass over will begin to move towards the airfield thus creating a horde.

Bonus i read what zeehond23 commented on and zombies being scared of gunshots wouldn't make sense, since zombies are just the reincarnated part of the cerebellum, and the hypothalamus. The cerebellum controls their movement while the hypothalamus controls hunger (I know this cause they move and bite those are the only functions they seem to have) The part of the brain that controls fear the Amygdala isn't infected so zombies don't feel fear or emotions.
