1. Fall damage is OP, you jump off a pebble and BOOM... you’re almost half dead already. 2. Weapon Accuracy is dreadful, bullets do not hit efficiently enough especially with a controller. 3. You need to add K/M support for this game. 4. Too many bugs and glitches causing myself and many other VIGOR players to lose all items in game and have to re grind the items over and OVER AGAIN. 5. Every character looks identical to each other. Needs a lot more clothing items in the store. 6. You do not even know who your own team mate is due to lack of HUD, you need to add an Icon above there player to symbolise it’s uour friend and not enemy. 7. Bullets to not shoot properly from a gun and what I actually mean is that when you’re trying to spray your machine gun, only a couple bullets come out and you then have to tap the RT button rapidly as if it’s a single bullet gun. 8. VERY repetitive, needs to add in game events to keep players wanting to play more and not do the same thing which is sprint to the safe house and then sprint to a safe zone and repeat over and over again. 9. WHY IS CROUCHING IN THIS GAME SO DAMN LOUD JESUS. 10. Dev support is ridiculously slow, this game came out in July 2018 and what has happened but add an in game lobby and some guns? Every patch update has done nothing but make the game worse, I’m still finding myself freezing in random spots, server kicks or not being able to use my weapon and die. 11. Add a ranking system so again it’s fun to be able to rank up and see the levels in game lobby. 12. Add some stats so we can actually see how many kills we have made, or how long we’ve walked, how long been playing for ETC... 13. Focus on your player base, I’ve seen soooooooo many players making suggestions or mentioning about bugs and nothing is being done. They’re simple bugs to fix and we’re still facing these every day. 14. Loads more to complain about but I would probably go to 100+ so I’ll leave it here. Feel free to continue this on in the comment section if I have missed anything you guys may be struggling with for this game, I will be adding an IDEA poll soon so once again share some ideas and I’ll add them in.

I think there's a number things that should be added/fixed in Vigor, ignoring the incessant crashing on PS4, I am on PS4 and started a few days ago, I'm in love with the game and decent at it but there's a few things that need to be changed or added, my number 1 thing is proximity chat, being able to talk to people near you and hear other people, it was done in DayZ on console so it shouldn't be too hard here, my next thing is maybe some attachments, nothing crazy realistic or detailed like batteries and tons of them, just a 4x ACOG a simple 1x Red dot or Holo, and some thing to moderate the recoil, like a grip or muzzle attachments, as well as some surpressors, all Russian to fit the setting and should be rare, only found in game or expensive to craft as well as gun specific, obviously things like bigger squad modes, a higher player count, bigger squads and the ability to drop/trade weapons and ammo, how about something like being able to be in eachother shelters and having a system there to share or trade weapons, ammo etc. Say your friend doesn't have ammo or a decent gun and doesn't want to waste his ADR or MP5k on a small challenge run, simply make it so we can drop or trade weapons, shouldn't be too hard, as well as dial back some rendering things if needed to drop items, and like I said with bigger maps and more people, I think 30 players on slightly bigger maps or 20 on some of the current ones would be perfect, personally I think the game is almost perfect gunplay and mechanic wise it just needs some small additions and tuning for quality of life

I recently started playing and greatly enjoy the game and I think it has a lot of potential. I have compiled some of my and friend's suggestions. It would be great to have a new and perhaps larger shelter that could be shared by a group or clan and could be built and improved by its members. I've already fully upgraded my shelter and feel less purpose to play the game outside of playing with friends. The materials required to improve the group shelter could be immense but it would give a shared purpose for playing with teammates. Group challenges could also be created with the addition of groups/clans. Overall, I think the team shelter and objectives would increase and improve the player base. Additional Suggestions -Make pathways out of shelter to various encounter maps -Highlight shelter upgrade icons a certain color when materials required for building the upgrade are acquired, even if the maximum number of upgrades are currently under construction. This is not the same as the gold icons shown while no upgrades are being built -Allow certain music records to be removed from the record player in the shelter -Allow dropping and sharing of loot items between players in the shelter or in-game. -Allow metal parts to be obtained from deconstructing items -Allow crates to be purchased with crowns in the store -Allow decoys to be activated wirelessly Thanks!

1. Voice communication proximity. It would add another heightened sense of realism. As well as make it easier for outlanders to decide if they want to kill or if they want to let live. Another point is that it would be a heavy marketing strategy as rage videos would go viral on social media platforms. 2. Mod meh gunz! Higher tier weapons could include base guns with mods. Example es16a2 is a common gun. But the scoped es16a2 is purple scoped silenced es16a2 is gold. Mods should be random found in vaults or safes. And they need to make sense. Scoped RAK is example of a bad mod. RAK should get a extended mag or grip. Snipers could have a 2x scope. Thermo? Night vision? You get it. To access the mod weapons click the weapon but make a window pop up similar to changing weapons when you're looting. To better explain you'd click the es16a2 as if you were equipping it. Then the window will pop up. Left for base, Right for modded. 3. Add these new guns FN SCAR 16, M4, M249(SAW), MP5, Desert Eagle, Barret .50, and the M1216 Shotgun. 4. Custom Clothing Emblems for Crowns Design your own emblem and apply it for 100 crowns! 5. Team Killing penalty Now when team killing a teammate on duos an Outlander will receive a red skull icon on their pregame loadout character sheet. Indicating that they have killed a teammate in a recent game. The outlander will have the red skull for 24 hours or until a successful exit without killing a teammate. 6. Communication has your back! Now when activating the communications, radiation will be visible on the outlanders map. Allowing them to loot all the way to the end. 7. Signal detector buff. Signal detector now shows your targets gps position for 3 secs after it has been activated. 8. 4v4v4 Squads. An Outlander can only hold 2 crates in this mode. Quickplay is the only option as to prevent easy 8-12 man group ups 9. An exit to the game application Yeah bruv.... 10. Suggestions and Fixes Fall damage needs reduced Stagger needs to be less potent needs a very slight tweak. Prone is sometimes bugged when nothing is in the way. The Outlander is forced to stand. Recoil needs reworked with certain guns(PA, A74k, scorpion, vz,) unless modded guns are added and compensator is a available mod. Then a rework wouldnt be needed. New Clothes for winter terrain Thank you for taking the time to read this. Keep up the good work! ~The Truest King

Friendly reminder that there will be another DevStream Happening on Wednesday at usual o'clock. ? ➡️ And as always - make sure to ask your questions before the Livestream so we can make sure to address them once we're live ?

Do knives deal different damage, swing faster, have more range, or are different in ANY way?

Me and my friend were playing and we kept tking because we could not tell the difference between each other and the end I’d also along with that feature you could also add it were if you get a supply drop while you and your teammate are looting then when you get back to base you both get a wooden crate each that way it’s actually worth playing with your friends and getting crates also add a spectating mode were if you die while playing with a teammate then you can watch them play

Implement attachments to enhance weapon capabilities. Fast mag, stock, extended mag, rapid fire, long barrel, barrel choke, quickdraw, grip, laser light, tactical flashlight, suppresor, high caliber rounds, stabilizer (sniper rifle), just a few examples. All attachments would stay withing context of the game. Nothing unbelievable.

I bought the game a couple weeks or months ago (don’t remember) and I’m really enjoying it.I know that you are focused on making the game work well and all but it would be cool to put some of theses ideas into the final game. Remember these are only ideas. put a first person mode do like dayz where you can zoom in to see stuff further away. players render in only a couple hundred feet in front out you, could you make them render further? Add squads and duos (I think you guys were already planning that). add more maps/encounters (a cool one would be an encounter during the night) Also, it would be cool to include some gun play in your next dev stream ( with aim down sight and over the shoulder aiming). Unless you want to keep that as a surprise. Thanks for the great stuff so far!

Ok so I played the beta and the games actually really fun I will definitely be buying the game on release but I would like to put my input on things. The glitches that happened to me were the obvious 1s that the developers knew would fluke other than that it was fun. I would think new maps would be the obvious point of this game it feels close to a br but it leans more toward tarcov and day z and if they added new maps it could very well take the lead. You guys should think about added like a bigger map and no radiation for a longer gameplay no exit just something like a mmo game mode because a lot of people are waiting for games like day z and you could get there attention with that idea a more hardcore with more players that would count as a new or custom gamemode, a br gamemode like 50 players or so or you could do br on the same maps with 16 players that's still fun but you guys gotta remember lots of people want biggggger game modes (amount of players). You guys could add like objective game modes like hold out and cover the area from enemie team until exit is ready. Although I have wayyy more ideas it's not my game but personally I'd focus on new gammodes new maps. Please guys I've been waiting for a goooooood PvP mmo long term survival game that needs more skill than cod so I'm putting my attention to this game and I'm counting on you guys to make the best of what you have started bc it's the closest thing to what I want lol GL XD

Hello Guys, I want to ask you about some ideas and concepts for a new Arma 3 game mode. The focuses lies on a muliplayer gamemode, which ideally do not require a database (there is no problem if there's a need to but its easier without). This can range from 5v5 (project argo, rainbowsix, cod search and destroy) like mode to a big 64vs64 (bf conquest, tank/jet only) mode. It can also contain some mods or be a fully modded experience, but don't have to. Personally, I quite like the idea of crysis wars power struggle mode or something in that direction. Alternatively I like the idea of having a fully populated island you can travel around with ambient life and stuff, outposts you have to take and so on, like in the far cry series. But i have no clue how to include a multiplayer mode around that. Im quite experienced in scripting in arma as well as modding so there are no restrictions at all. What do you think people would enjoy playing in Arma?

Alongside my Command & Conquer project, I have been thinking of other tiny projects that might be really fun to do. One of these projects I wanted to undertake is based on one of my favorite franchises of all time: Army Men. I remember vividly playing with tons of these sets as a kid and also the many games that came out for it. The game I remember most is Sarge's Heroes 1 and 2 (the N64 versions - as that's what I had at the time). I loved the idea of toys coming to life and waging war both in their world and ours. I searched recently and there use to be a mod for OFP in progress a long time ago, but it sadly ceased production, so I feel like maybe I can take up this kind of project. I think it'd be kind of easy, because the weapons are easily recreated and everything is mostly western equipment - but maybe I can expand on this with some more vehicles (to stand out a little) and weapons later. This project wouldn't require much at all as you'd have to primarily make everything look all plastic and matte colored, which I think would be easy enough to do. The mod will initially only contain the Green Nation and Tan Republic, but will eventually see the Blue and Grey nations. Based on what I've seen, this is what I'd need for even the basics: Vehicles: M48 Patton (I can use an M60, because there's not a proper M48 Patton yet) [x] - Done UH-1 Huey (I'd like to seek out permission to re-skin one) (Will use Blackhawk or Chinook?) M3 Halftrack (I can just as easily use a different APC for this if I have to, which is fine) (M113 or BMP?) Jeep (can just reskin the basic jeep and jeep w/ mg) Trucks (again, reskinning basic stuff will work) AH-1 Cobra (Army Men: Air Attack) PT Boat (just will reskin the PBR) Advanced Vehicle models for later: P51 (Green Nation plane) Spitfire (Tan Republic) B25 (Green Nation) Tu-25 (Tan Republic) Classes: Rifleman Bazooka Man Sniper Shotgunner Grenadier Flamethrower (this can never be properly implemented, so avoiding this one) Officer Medic Heroes: Sarge Hawk Thick Riff Scorch Col. Grimm Vicky Shrap Private Hoover Bullseye Villains: General Plastro Malice Col. Blintz Field Marshal Tannenburg Baron von Beige Major Mylar Weapons: M16 M79 Grenade Launcher (would have to ask permission for this) M21 M60 LAW (Unless someone has an M1 Bazooka somewhere that I'm allowed to use) And if I can do it, I want to apply some kind of specular map to everything to make them shiny plastic. Maybe also make some scripts to make them make dying sounds when shot. The heroes and villains probably won't make it in until way later, so basically going to only reskin the West soldiers to be green and tan respectively. Green soldiers will have green weapons and tan soldiers will have tan weapons, otherwise it just doesn't look consistent. I also want to make a script that shows plastic chunks flying when shot if that's possible. I mean we have OFPEC blood for the blood, but I'm sure a similar kind of job can simulate plastic flying everywhere. Even melted plastic puddles. :P I just wanted to see what people would think of this - I think it'd be a welcome mod for people who like fictional and different stuff like this. My other idea for a mod is Battletanx and Battletanx: Global Assault, which obviously would only be vehicle based, but I'll share that later. Made a logo for it too: Based off the Army Men Advance logo.
