Ok.... I've spent my last 20 minutes reading some ideas.
I left my favourites and some that I created.
Here they are (I hope you guys like them =3):
1 - This is a very important one in my opinion, please add a lot of trees and bushes, also make us able to go through the bushes. Give us the ability to crouch and lie on the floor. Why? Well, because (many agree with me) it's so easy, no.... TOO EASY, to spot people in the fields. I mean, there's absolutely NOTHING where we can hide.
2 - The point nº1 brings another question... Almost every post asks for sniper rifles, and I think they are very important. A sniper rifle that kills with one shoot ONLY if they are hit in the head, anywhere else in the body would take 33% of the health.
2.1 - This one I don't know if it exists or not. Please tell me in the replies below. I think that all the weapons should have a bit of a Zoom, not much, but something that allow us to deal more precise shoots.
3 - Bigger and taller buildings! I think I don't need to explain anything...
4 - Ok, the vehicles thing... I like the idea of vehicles, but I agree that the current map is small to have vehicles. BUT, if you add them, please make some fuel thing so the users can't use them as if they never run out of fuel. Also, make 4 types of vehicles:
4.1 - Small vehicles for one person. (Bikes, motorcycles...)
4.2 - Medium vehicles for 1-6 passengers. (Cars, mini buses (imagine a bus, but tiny xD))
4.3 – Flying vehicles for 1-4 passengers. (Heli)
4.4 – Water vehicles for 1-2 passengers, (Boat). Ok, now, this would require an island, that will lead us to the point 5).
5 – Guess what it is... An island! I know, it's hard, but anyway, I leave here the idea.
6 – Allow the servers to have more people! I don't mean 1000 guys in the same map, but at least 12 instead of 10, it increases the chance of finding someone =P
And I know that you guys are working on a bigger map, so that supports this idea, make it 15/18.
7 – Ok, maybe this one is abusing, but, asking doesn't hurt... I think the binoculars are a bit useless... I use them to see the name of a player that is far away, and in the forest. It would be better if the binoculars eliminate some of the fog. (The same thing to the scope in the snipers please) If that isn't possible, try to improve them a bit.
8 – Very important one. And this is (for me) the most important one. Lets imagine, that I have 2 mags for the same weapon, one has 2/6 and the other 3/6. They are using 2 slots in the backpack. Instead of doing that, we would be able to combine them to make a 5/6 to spare some space.
9 – Some rain once in a while?
10 – Give some use to the crowbar and the hatchet, I never use them.
11 – I also saw in some of the comments the visibility tools, and I agree with them. And also, I think that the fireplaces that we make could be seen from far away. Also make the nights darker.
12 – The zombies! Some say to make them kill us instantly, others say the opposite. Well, I don't know what to support xD but, one thing I know, I think that you should put zombies in the countryside and some inside the buildings. The thing is, if you add more zombies like I said, reduce their damage and speed (they faster than us, for God sake -.-).
12.1 – Sometimes I hit a player that is “miles” away. And to hit a zombie they have to be 1 feet away from me.... WTH?! Increase the weapons range to zombies, I think it isn't the same for zombs and players.
13 – GUNS! No... really. We don't need more guns (beside snipers). It's stupid to have 98127398 different guns to have the same number of different mags to lag the server... The thing with guns is that the good ones are all in the forest (most of the good things are in the forest), so it makes the forest a dangerous spot. That's a good thing, but at least spread those good things (good weapons, GPS's, military bags) a bit more around the map...
14 – More animals? And a limited number of matches.
15 – We could be able to combine Fanny Pack with other Packs.
16 - Please create a Forum post with all the status of the weapons, as their damage, rate of fire, range...
Here's a important thing... I'm being very nice with my requests =P cause my computer is very slow and I really don't want this game to be laggy!! So the vehicles idea is only to be used if the new map is super big. And make just one heli, 2/3 cars, 2/3 boats or something like that.
The only ideas I really want are 1, 2 and 8.
The others are just to make the game better. For example, if you created 8, it wouldn't be necessary 15.
Don't fall in the tricks of adding VIP or any advantages of any kind... please, the game is good as long as it is the same conditions for everyone. |

Btw the super rare spawning place will be surrounded by 12+ zombies and have 6 spawning spots.
Or whatever suits you gus. Keep on with the hard work!
Ideas for Snipers.
Common:Hunting Rifle: Bolt action, 3 shot headshot(a little slower than mosin speed), 4 shot body
Uncommon: Draganov: Semi Auto (not too semi auto, maybe .85 seconds?), 4 shot headshot, 4 body
Rare(MK Rare):DMR: Semi Auto(equal to Drag), 2 shot head, 3 shot body
That rare spawning place only: M24: (bolt action, hunting rifle speed) 1 shot head, 2 shot body
Sniper rifles are extremly inacurate when hip fired, and usually wont hit someone, even really close. Probably only point blank. Thats where the scope comes in. |

We have suppressed weapons already. As for snipers, I agree on that term. I'd like a style of sniper like that of in the game "Authority". |
|
|
Make armor like flak vests and buggy suits |
|
|
OK, mah ideas are simple (if ur not a skitzafrenic)
1) CANNABILISM, the cannable PERK allows one to FEED off a dead COARPS to restore there hunger bar to full, plus restore 10% of there health.
2) WATER, water (acting like meat) can be found in bottles but must be boiled at a fire to be consumed, restoring the drinker's thirst bar to full, plus an additional effect (like temporary speed bonuses, or restore health or somthing) |

REMOVE THE MK.
It's completely unfair to other players. The higher-end guns are bad enough (M4A1, M14, etc) but when a group of bandits has an MK in there, they can slaughter everyone, nobody stands a chance. |

And if you think I'm just a whiner, you're someone who's never had to take them on, or you're one of them. |

I have taken them on. On multiple occations. The reason he put the MK in there is so there is a better gun beyond the m4a1. He wants people to have a goal, so that they would play more. So a rare low spawnng awesome weapon is a valid choice.
Also- a team of people with mks?
Lets just say a lot of us want gernades, and thts a reason for some. |

how would we get the r$ by wandering around. |
|

@mantis: The reason the Mk is so OP is because it is so ACCURATE and has 100 bullets. In real life, heavy guns like those are surprisingly accurate if you LAY DOWN and set them up (on stands). However, otherwise they are very HEAVY and SLOW YOU DOWN.
Again, people: Snipers are useless. As it stands, every gun in the game is a sniper with 100% accuracy, and the mosin etc. suffice for range. |

I am suggesting new perks, being sold as "DLCs" by T-shirts. These perks would be sidegrades instead of upgrades, as to keep balance.
The first one I would suggest is "Explorer" perk. They don't have any stat advantage, but they start with a map and GPS. This really helps out new players who doesn't have a bearing on the landscape yet.
Next would be "Glutton", which doubles the health gained from food items. This means 2 MREs would fill up the health bar.
"Strong Back" would give the player more carry weight (this may call for a UI change, however)
"One of Them" Oh no! You have been infected! On the upside, however, zombies will not attack you. Your skin will turn green, and your hunger bar will lower at a far lower rate. However, you cannot eat food or use blood packs! The only way to regain hunger and health is to feast on human corpses! (zombies will start with "feast tool"). Once fed, you will regain full hunger and health, plus a permanent addition of 50 health to your health. This means that if you survive long enough, you can be a true menace to the humans. The downside is, you can't form or join groups, because zombies are too stupid to group up and humans hate you. Interestingly, zombies can drink soda. (This perk would be more expensive as it changes the metagame)
"Cannibal" You're a naughty one, and would eat everything save zombies. With this perk, you can eat human corpses (eww). Eating human corpses fills hunger and thirsts bar, as well as gives a permanent addition of 10 to your maximum health. Cannibals can't use blood packs, however, as they drink them instead of soda. As many people disapprove of cannibalism, cannibals can only join groups with each other. A cannibal's face will be splattered with blood, making it easy to identify one. And yes, cannibals can eat each other >:D
"Swift hands" faster reload. Nuff' said. |

The only way to take down someone with an MK is to suprise them or have the same gun .-. |

Why is it you lot mention weapons every time? The game is meant to be about SURVIVAL it's not just a PvP game! Add more to the environment and add different temperatures and effects it can have like they actually do in DayZ.
There's no need for snipers and more suppressors since the Mosin Nagant can do just find for a long range weapon. Not every long range weapon has to be 1 shot kill because then people would be complaining about the snipers being overpowered like the MK.
But yeah, MOAR FOR THE ENVIRONMENT! MOAR LOCATIONS, MOAR REALISM!
I've posted my suggestion about temperature change in page 119 so you can have a more in-depth look at that aswell. |

i think you should add classes like melee and police and stuff and add a katana |
|

For the people saying snipers are useless you are dead wrong. Gus added cover and soon (hopefully) he will add proning. And cover + proning = strategy and what comes from strategy? Taking out enemies from a distance and scouting. What comes from scouting? Snipers. With the addition of snipers the game would become more serious, and people would be more careful when looting.(just look at Dayz)
Also Ive taken out a guy with an Mk full health with an M4A1, and he only hit me once out of 30 shots. And he noticed me far away. The thing was was that i was far away and he couldn't hurt me cause of the MKs inaccuracy.
And if you think snipers are overpowered, then look at my comment at the bottom of 119, and i devised a good damage system for snipers, and the types we could have.
Keep Up the Work Gus! |

Scratch that., look at top of 120 :3 |
|

What would be a cool addition:
Night vision goggles
Flashlights
Randomly spawning attachments on guns
Proning+Crouching
MK-48 slows you down if moving, but if you prone, it has better accuracy
Heli crashes, up north
More military shotguns
wrecked vehicles in and around cities
Wrecked military vehicles around and in the Airbase
Another LMG (Ie M249 SAW)
Atleast two snipers (If you add the DMR and AS50, make the AS50 ONLY spawn at crash sights, the DMR only spawns in the barracks but also spawns at crash sights, and DMR is the only sniper able to be used with NV goggles)
Terrain
L85A2 AWS
Bullet proof vests
Combining fanny pack with survival pack to get a military pack size of inventory, but you don't have a military pack
Maybe Humvee or Army ural wrecks could be scattered around south (Heli crashes north that spawn superweapons, ural/humvee wrecks south and sometimes north, (Like it was travelling down from airbase) that spawn perhaps M870's, M4's, etc, and very rarely, an LMG or silenced weapon)
Island
Assault boat, to get to the island, which has one helicopter crash (Its a large island that the army sent backup to incase zombies got there, but the helicopter crashed, and the military zombies spread, which is why they may just be randomly in a town or something, but the heli still has some zombies so you can't just go in, find chopper, leave without killing zombies.) |

Make the backpacks a different color, they bring so much attention to people. I wear dark colors to blend in at night, but when I find a backpack it's like wearing white socks while everything else you're wearing is black. And you should make te survival time by minutes. Some people brag about surviving for a long time, but what if they're just joining servers that start at 5:00 and they get a day in 2 minutes? I've always had to leave at like 3:00 because of emergency's, and never got to get my day. Also, make it look more gloomy. At night, the houses look so new and everything. And here's some things you can add.
Flashlights for night, except it will attract you to players.
Night vision goggles
Be able to sneak behind people and open their backpacks
Let people see you weapon on your back, when you're not using it (Like DayZ)
Add guns with scope!!
Also, you don't really need this thread, since DayZ gives you all of the ideas!

weather rain snow hurricanes and building along with crafting |

You should put in crouching and crawling so you can go closer to zombies and not be seen. Also, I'm sure if your doing this already but if your not, add broken cars around the map to make it look more like an apocalypse. If you think this is good, maybe you should add a ff for like less then 3 seconds so you can't get killed on spawn. Other then that, Amazing game. |

I Think You Should Add Tents, Gun Mods Such As Gernade Launcher Scope Laser sight And rocket launcher |
|
|
I would like to suggest adding crouch, prone and ghillesuits or some sort of camo. |
