Mikeloeven (DayZ) 10 Posted October 6, 2012 the hourglass screen is one of the most obnoxious and buggy features in days i am assuming it is supposed to indicate someone who passed out. however by completely disabling the game interface and not allowing the player any option to suicide in the event of a bug or infinate hourglass the players only recourse is to terminate the game via taskmanager additionally there is no way to report the bug to a administrator. i think that untill a better system for passing out is put into place the hourlass icon should leave players able to access the respawn menu as well as use voice and text chat. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeppa 562 Posted October 7, 2012 Just ask someone to stick epipen up your a-hole and you will be up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lights Out 141 Posted October 7, 2012 Too controversial for such an unimportant feature. Not a bad idea, just not worth the fall out it's going to get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelvoodoo25 3120 Posted October 7, 2012 No, this is a bad idea.Your as well asking for no hourglass screen, that way you are more immersed in the moment, not knowing how long is more realistic and will add to the tension of play, driving you out of your mind!You gotta love and hate this game!

enforcer1975 1111 Posted October 7, 2012 Actually a pretty decent idea, whether you were joking or not.This is used in A.C.E. mod if you use Æ wounds, so it's not a new idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelvoodoo25 3120 Posted October 7, 2012 It was a serious idea, based on the fact you go black when you pass out. Didn't know about the ACE doing this, I guess I'll have to try this mod out as I have heard very good things about it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forgewolf 70 Posted October 7, 2012 I would love if we had a black screen instead of the hour glass. Simulates beeing unconsious better and will annoy guys like the OP quite good :DI agree.. A blackscreen would be better.. And it should NOT reset if you decided to log out. Whatever time you have remaining.. Is what time you'll have remaining when you log back in.
