My list of suggestions/complaints for Day Z

[ExplosiveBanana 0]

Ok here it is my list of complaints and suggesstions. I know the game is sill in alpha but im gonna complain anyway.

1: In my opinion i dont think zombies should be nearly as fat as they are because i feel like im being chased by a pack of Hussein Bolts. (i think thats his name)

2: when a zombie slaps me i really dont think i should start bleeding thats just plain stupix.

3: my guy seems like a hemopheliac brcause he wont stop bleeding from a tiy little cut from a zombie, even a bullet wound dosnt bleed that much.

4: why do crawling and monkey zombies all if a sudden gain super strength when they see me and get up and haul a$$ after me?

5: I was swimming about 10-15ft and my guy lost his entire backpack. Let me just refrain that so you get it. HE LOST A BACKPACK IN CRYSTAL CLEAR WATER AFTER SWIMMING 10FT!!!!!!!!!! that should be fixed. Ive gone swimming in green water with waves and managed to keep a $10 bill in my pocket.

6: why is everyone so unprepared for he apocalypse? The player carachter on his way out grabbed like 10 road flares but not a map?

7: why do soldiers not carry weapons or ammo but i can find plenty in a school building? When you kill a zombie soldier he should have some kind of weapon

8: why did every vehicle in the world explode?

9: the system of zombies spawning near buildings works ok but theres like 20 near a shed in the middle of nowhere.

10: there should be more guns in a place like that. What i mean is is hat chernarus is in the country sidr and almost in russia. And there was a war going on. So id expect at least 1 gun every other house but just like revolvers and makarovs and ocasionally a rifle.

Thanks

5: I agree actually. Thats a shitty mechanic, and I think everyone pretty much hates that.

6: ^see #1

7: ^see #1

8: they didn't. There are plenty of good vehicles out there, you just have to find them and fix them up.

5) you swam with a tiny bit of paper and held onto it? have a medal

your character is swimming fully clothed with a full pack, full pockets, an assault rifle and a sidearm

you know why he drops it? because otherwise he will drown (PS your gear is still there, it's just under the water)

I don't think this game is for u man...I personally would like to see the zombies be much harder and do much more damage. If you're good at shooters and can headshot the crap out of them with ease. Not worrying about 30 zombies is not good at all. I would be happy if getting hit by a zombie 5 times or so would kill you.

Good at shooters and good at Arma are two totally different things. Arma has done lots of stuff wrong and the only hope is that Arma 3 fixes that. Like crosshair is ALWAYS in the middle, not flying around like a drunk mosquito. Or ladders. Or doors. Or just possibility to turn around while you are standing still, who the hell had the idea to make your weapon block ability to turn around in narrow place, I have no idea what stuff like this is "simulating".

Your right on the spot it does make the game more challenging, alot more challenging. But theres 2 problems with that. He first one is that i was exited about day z because it was gonna be a realistic zombie game, and realism dosnt mean challenging not by a long shot. Also, there is a rather thick line between challenging and fun and day z took a great bound into the challenging side.

Your right thats completly sensible and reasonable... But, all i had was the starting gear and an empty backpack. In total i would say hes carrying about an extra 7lbs. And the water was about chest deep but ArmA's mechanics said lets swim anyways!

I agree with everything you say here. The games probobly not for me because it just seems pointlessly challenging to me. Also, i agree zombies should be difficult and scary, but i dont think speed should be there strong point. It would take alot of work to make his happen but i think zokbies should be able to like grab you and break windows and doors to get to you and once they do your probobly gonna die or run. But in a large field you will destroy them. Also, i think once theres more than 5 zombies you should be wooried. Finally i like that zombies kill you quick i just dont like the bleed mechanic, it just dosnt make sense to me. When a zombie hits me with his hand i spray blood out of a small hole my body could easily clot for about 1-2mins. Thats just strange to me. Maybe after 3hits a more realistic bleeding approach would be fine

hell no, if they spot you while your prone you will take 2/3 hits, getting up another hit, and then your nearly dead? no thanks, id rather heave weaker, slower zombies but more of them, zombies hurt me more than players and i always wait for them to move, but OH ones right behind me aparently.

I love all of these suggestions. I don't like fast zombies; I like tons of slow ones. I don't think you should start bleeding from such a minor thing. That's unrealistic. I think guns and ammo should be found in places that they actually would, and I think your inventory should not have tons of road flares, but a gun, a flashlight, and a mag or two.

All of these are great suggestions. Count me in.

No the game needs to be harder. In all zombie movies, and tv shows you getting hit scratched by a zombie gets you infected. The zombies have a disease, and you getting their DNA on you would infect you. Lets say you get hit get sick and goes on from their. Also you would get weaker hard to aim, loose bllod here and their. You get thirsty and hungry quicker. And soon your temp goes down, untill you finaly die. Only way to cure it would be to take care of your self keeping yourself warm, and giving yourself blood. And meds, that is my point make the game 10 times harder it adds the realistic part to it.

I am yet to see a fat zombie. Am I not looking hard enough?

I'd be okay with some sort of virus. It would add one of the key aspects of zombie media to the game and make teaming up much more interesting. But one scratch causing you to bleed? I'm not buying it.

:D the only problem with tons of slow zombies is that a game that isnt optimized dor something like that, especially in multiplayer, migh lag like crazy

You counter acted youself. You said etting scratched by a zombie gets you infected, impleying that you will soon become a zombie, but that you need to keep warm and what not. But when your infected theres no stopping it, excluding death. But in most zombie movies the zombie has to bite you to transfer its infected cells to you

Once again the enemies in DayZ aren't zombies but infected. Totally different with being more like 28 dayz later movie than anything else. There will most likely be no change to how fast the zombies are, just better pathing.

Just grab a boat and head on ober to america' date=' theres probobly plenty.

Never seen that movie. But im assuming if your running from a zombie you at least have a chance? In dayZ you dont.

If you're good at shooters and can headshot the crap out of them with ease.

Also that would make it so that only about %10 of the people who play this game would have fun whilst doing it. Which would suck in short.

In 28 dayz later movie, they sprint at full speed like DayZ. Those who escape in the movie have either killed them or just BARELY escaped which does happen in DayZ.

But still the zombies are as fast as a dog or something maybe faster.

You say that but not once have i heard the developer call them infected. He calls them zombies.
