(Part 2) Top products from r/dayz

From one web designer to another, i tend to find that while it's nice to design for designs sake, with something like this you should be designing for functions sake. Things like the toolbelt bit on the left do admittedly have a charm to them, but they are unnecessary and end up looking a bit tacky instead.Same goes for the backgrounds on the different sections. a simpler background with transparency works much better for things like this.

Also, i'm struggling to really know which button i should be pressing to do certain functions. Is the red arrow bit a delete/drop button? If so, use tried and tested iconography. Stick an x in it instead of an arrow and stick it on the other side of the box in the corner so there's no chance of mistakenly clicking it.

The other buttons carry similar burdens. In the loot, you have a green tick and a grey arrow. Common sense and logic are telling me that the green tick is to put it in the inventory, and the grey arrow is to put it in the backpack. But then the same buttons appear over the coke can. The grey arrow still feels like it performs the same function, but now the green tick seems to embody a 'use' functionality.

Number one rule is "Don't make me think". You should read the book if you haven't already. It's very useful reading for web designers.

Aside from that, good first draft. I look forward to seeing your revisions after your feedback from the community :)

Shall I continue?

Realistically yes.

I read an awesome book which talks about this, though it's covers the broader hypothetical of what would happen if all humans disappeared from the planet tomorrow.

The World Without Us.

Haha! I thought the same thing when I saw that. And I'd even use something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000X0XJU

They have worked fine ever since I've bought them. They take drops fine and seem sturdy enough.

12-36 months is the standard for a 2-3 million dollar production.

I read an interesting book about one of the deadliest seasons on Mt Everest called Dark Summit. It was pretty eye opening. Basically when you're up in the "death zone", the area that cannot sustain life due to lack of oxygen, you're pretty much already fighting for your own survival. Due to the incredibly harsh conditions, high altitude and low oxygen it is almost certain death to stop & try to help someone already dying.

Hell, even moving a dead body down the mountain is incredibly difficult which is why many of the people who died on Everest are still there.

Basically you have to make a choice, either leave the person to die or try to help them & almost surely die too. Many people die climbing Everest, everyone who makes the trip knows the risks.
