OnionOfShame added a comment to T112824: Spawning in areas near death.

You missed the point of what I said. DayZ is not supposed to be an easy squad-up-and-PvP-spawn-with-your-friends-just-respawn-if-you-die kind of game. It's a simulator. What would happen if you died in real life with your friends? You're gone. You're not just going to respawn and run to regroup with them. If you want to just get a close respawn and get your gear back easily then there are other games.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112824: Spawning in areas near death.

Noooooooo.

This completely goes against the core characteristics of the game. You're not supposed to go back for your body, you're supposed to start over new after dying. If anything, I think that spawning near one's recent place of death should be blocked. But preferably it would just stay as the random spawn system we have now.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112813: Give us an option to toggle off constant vignette from settings. (Currently only Pause/Break key toggles it on/off).

The vignette effect is a matter of taste. Personally I like it, but I van understand disliking it. I agree that there should be a way to disable it.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112701: Barrels inventory Resets when server does.

That's because persistence is still turned off. The inventory is supposed to reset.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112692: Unable to equip any items after exiting v3s.

This issue has been confirmed for some time. To avoid it just put away your weapon before you get into the truck. Same goes for ladders and some other situations.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112637: Clipping visor of lower integrity status onto Gorka helmet of higher integrity lowers helmet to level of visor.

That's just how the crafting mechanic works. Same if the conditions are reversed, the condition is an average of the two once they areally combined. I think the original condition should be retained if it is taken apart though, nor sure if this happens.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112567: Playing experimental .58 update #3 i found a bug with the cooking pot and pistols... (^^cant put .58 in the product version box).

This isn't a bug, the cooking pot is considered a container. If there are not enough open slots "before" it, items will automatically be placed inside.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112565: LOOT XPLOSIONS.

If it wasn't a location where loot normally spawns, it was must likely a spot where a player was killed and some of their gear was dropped on the ground.

It's completely realistic. Our characters are supposed to be untrained civilians. How well do you think they would be able to manage the recoil of a powerful automatic weapon like this?

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112243: When using an acog scope zooming does not raise the gun.

Doesn't happen for me. Have you tried relogging? There are a lot of weird bugs like this in the most recent patch, most of them fixed by relogging.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112174: Objects in tent's inventory gain "0" subscript.

I have experienced this looting items from the body of another player. Usually splitting the stack or sorting out the usable rounds (in the case of damaged ammo) will shoe the numbers properly.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112172: Items falling through school floor / items spawn above the school building.

They're not dropping through the floor. They're actually teleporting up above the school and floating there. Weird, I know. If you go to the roof and look closely you can actually see them floating there.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112139: VS3 Truck and Tent disappears after server restart in Persistance Server..

Persistence is currently disabled globally. No server can change this currently. Not a server option anymore, so I'm not sure why some server names even still mention it.

Another minor issue with the Winchester, it currently cannot be spraypainted despite information in the game files suggesting otherwise.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T112113: no items in helicrash sites.

Not sure then. I personally have been able to find things there. Mostly boots, but loot nonetheless. I know that the loot distribution varies randomly from server to server so this is likely the root of the issue.

May 11 2016, 6:15 AM · DayZ
OnionOfShame added a comment to T112113: no items in helicrash sites.

The helicopter crash sites are currently static, so the most likely explanation is that other players knew the locations and were able to loot the sites before you.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111914: 6 slot pants very hard to find...

I can find them just fine. Look in the small office-ish buildings (sometimes attached to garages, two floors, has a bathroom on the first floor) and in the new school building, these seem to be the most common places to find them. Cargos in the former and Hunter Pants in the latter.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111912: Zombies are able to walke through closed doors AGAIN.

It seems to vary from server to server and/or session to session. Sometimes it will work correctly and zombies cannot run through doors, other times it will be reversed (they can run through when it is closed but there is an invisible barrier when it is open), and sometimes they can run through no matter what. It's especially annoying as these zombies run very fast and seem to never stop chasing you...at least they don't ruin all your gear in one punch anymore though.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111838: Barrels not spawning in .57 stable.

Not sure. They finally released the changelog and barrels are listed there so they should be spawning. I'm not quite sure if this changelog is 100% accurate, as it lists the UMP, VSS, and Red 9 despite statements I have seen from the devs saying that these weapons are not in stable yet. It is also definitely incomplete, as it makes no mention of several changes to the inventory system (changes to the capacity/size of various containers and the reduction of capacity in the Taloon Backpack, as well as other changes I may not have found yet).

May 11 2016, 6:05 AM · DayZ
OnionOfShame added a comment to T111838: Barrels not spawning in .57 stable.

Same. I wish they'd release the patch notes with the update rather than waiting until like a week after so that I can actually see what was changed...

May 11 2016, 6:05 AM · DayZ
OnionOfShame added a comment to T111838: Barrels not spawning in .57 stable.

Same here. I think that they probably decided that the barrel wasn't ready to release to stable.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111800: things disappearing from inventory.

I have found the new system frustrating at times as well. What I think they should do is make the item take up the space in your inventory and in your hands if you equip it through one of the quickbar slots. That way I can actually loot without accidentally filling up the space I have reserved for my pistol.

Somehow I just realized and decided to update this ticket...this issue actually used to be present in the game (I forget which update it was fixed in...), but obviously now it's back.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111796: Items bugged on the air above the school roof.

I have encountered this too, in the schools at Chernogorsk and Elektrozavodsk. It seems that gear dropped inside the school will instead float far above the roof. This is my theory as after switching into a new pair of pants on the second floor my old pants disappeared, and after I went up to the roof I saw the same pants floating (roughly) above where I had dropped them.

Here's a screenshot: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/688270265467628493/0C642D130522CF0C7513DF0E05DF145D68F49CCF/

Also, is it just me or does the school spawn exclusively Hunter Pants? It is possible that everything else was taken before I arrived, but in both schools the only items I found after searching the entire thing very carefully is variations of Hunter Pants.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111779: Small Protector Case and First Aid Kit - Slot uselessness.

I can see changing the Protector Case (its purpose is more for protection of items) and the attachable pouches (intended as an attachment, not standalone storage), but the changes to the Ammo Box and Medkit make no sense. There's absolutely no point in using either one as you could just hold the equipment you would be carrying inside in the same amount of slots, but it is easier to access while not in a container.
IMO they should definitely change the Ammo Box and Medkit back, the Attachable Pouches and Protector Case could go either way I suppose.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111726: M65 jacket is overpowered, either nerf it to 2x3 slots or upgrade all other heavy jackets to 2x4..

It isn't overpowered at all. If you've ever used it you'll find that you have issues with it and keeping warm, which can be a major downside. Even the Wool Coat, a highly common civilian item, keeps one warmer. Add to it that it sucks at keeping dry and you really have a major downside only justified (IMO) by the M65 Jacket's badass look.

What I do find strange about military clothing balancing is the difference between TTsKO and Gorka clothing. Gorka is pretty much objectively better than TTsKO (same amount of space and pretty much same insulation, but completely waterproof), but the TTsKO clothing seems to be much more rare. Seems like a small issue there, but obviously not a major one.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111696: Game needs Easter Eggs - of well known urban legends/virals.

Ehh...some easter eggs are cool but IMO they should not be references memes/"flavor of the month" things. Like the ghosts and radio signal at Green Mountain, the fallen statue that you can find in the woods, the Blair Witch Project reference, the big trails making an image of a person, and that sign where the terrain glitch used to be. Things like that are good. Bigfoot maybe, but obviously not a priority. And a double rainbow is something that can actually happen (although rarely) in real life, so that would be fine.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T111690: Me and my friend were unable to draw weapons in to hands after getting out v3s, had to relog 11 times!!!.

This is confirmed to happen to everyone pretty much all the time. Interacting with some objects (such as ladders or the V3S in your case) causes a hands bug which requires a relog to fix. The devs are aware and are working on a splution. To prevent this from happening in the meantime, always remember to put your gun on your back manually before interacting with the V3S. I have found that this never happens if your hands are empty.

Yes, this seems to happen with every gesture/animation, vaulting included. Occasionally it'll even put you in the prone position automatically when you try to wave. Really weird and difficult to explain when you're on an RP server...

OnionOfShame added a comment to T109996: open a can with a saw brought me 50%, where is the other half?.

Yeah, realistically you shouldn't really lose anything while opening cans with various tools. Personally I often use a steak knife to open cans in real life, and I never drop any on the ground. But even if you do drop some on the ground, shouldn't you still have the choice to eat it? I mean, if you're starving to death, I think the 3-second rule can be extended a bit...

All of that being said, I do understand why this mechanic is present. Without it there would be no point in carrying a canopener at all.

OnionOfShame added a comment to T108982: My Ideas For Future Updates..

All of these are pretty good ideas and I believe most of them will be implemented eventually. Except the infection meter thing, as the devs have explained that the zombies are not actually undead (i.e. "super rabies") and the players are only alive and can be hit by zombies because they are immune.
