Cappy (DayZ)

Maby this game just isn't for you. I mean this in the kindest possible sense. Personally i love this game, and everything about it (well apart from the forums), and many other do too. If you don't i can't cast any negative or positive judgments on you, but it seems you just don't like what the game is, and that's fine. But i recommend giving it a good try, experience with the mechanics of the game make survival a lot easier.

This thread is dead, The op will not submit to any logic or reason.

No friend your kinda missing the point. It wasn't for you to rename the title of your thread (missing all the other times you used 'penalties' in your post), but for you to realize that you cannot evoke any sort of system to punish people for murder. You said that in real life people get punished for murder,. i say, only the ones who get caught, and i've yet to see the zombie police about. Murder is a legal term for un-lawfull killing, without law its just killing. There is also a flag system in place, the heartbeat on bandits, with this you can tell who's a bandit and act accordingly, if your not in a position to act then it is your failure by either not spotting the player earlier or putting yourself in a situation where your are vulnerable. The fact is you can tell who is a bandit, and we all can use guns, bandit and survivor, your both in a equal position to kill each other.

Substitute the word 'penalties' for the word 'effects' ( and not necessarily negative or positive ) for murder. To penalize people for murder would cast negative judgment on what they did, and who is to say what they did was wrong or right. After all if doing such a thing helps them to survive, and we're all here to do that, how is it wrong?

So i run up the stairs in brezino appartments, had abit of aggro, making tonnes of noise. Get to the top, swing around a corner,.... ohnoes, dam hacker, camping prone in a room. He had the drop on me with a hacked weapon, doesn't get much worse than that PEW PEW PEW, tags me in the leg as i empty a clip from the hip with my m19, tag him in the head -1 hacker Second i've encountered so far, the first had a bullpup version of the barret .50, he met the same fate. Just goes to show,. you can hack all you like, your still gonna be shit! To all you hackers out there, next time spawn in a harrier, its the only way you've got a chance,... lil'bitches

He's the sort of guy when asked 'do you have any nades?' , goes 'No i don't know what a nade is,. i do however have some m26 fragmentation grenades' douche

one question. what does SBA stand for? Oh,. sorry,. just saw the website address :S

Yeah man' date=' hell they should make it so zeds do no damage, its too annoying, hell why not remove them all together, they just get in the way, and add more vehicles, weapons, maps, have it team A v team B,. or NPC,........ oh wait. [/quote'] That's not at all what he's saying. Good one tho. Okay okay, i'll be serious for a min. I think blood loss from Zeds has to be high. So high in fact that if you get hit even once the amount of blood you loose should be too much to be replaced by food alone. Apart from company, the real benefit from teaming up with someone is the use of blood bags. I think we need a some sort of direct advantage for teaming up, and blood bags does this well. I wouldn't mind less blood loss from zeds if food didn't replace blood at all, or greatly reduced,. therefore making it possible to solo the game, but extremely beneficial to team up. Apart from that its usually just a case of getting safe and bandaging, then finding a buddy, if you have no buddy i believe it should be harder.

Yeah man, hell they should make it so zeds do no damage, its too annoying, hell why not remove them all together, they just get in the way, and add more vehicles, weapons, maps, have it team A v team B,. or NPC,........ oh wait.

awesome feedback. Would 2 hits be okay?

I pose the question 'So are there now gangs of armed SURVIVORS hunting defenseless BANDITS?' If not, why? you get handy audio indicator now. Seems like a great task for a group of survivors, and as a bandit i would love it.

Thats awesome,. i'm gonna check with the cows near me. Can't believe this thread got 'MOOOOOved',...... oh yeah, i went there

The game is what you make it. If you wanted to survive as many days as possible after finding matches, knife, axe etc you'd run into the woods and never leave, but thats not much fun, well for me anyways, some may love it. But i have the same problem. i did look to tent as a place to build up some gear, something to work towards. but im finding it takes soo much away from the game. Surviving on what is to hand and making the best of what you've got seems way more fun to me. take away the need to loot and all risk and fun has gone. its a tricky one, not a fan of NPC missions tho. i prefer to create my own missions

If i was a cow i would travel a lot too,. eat some grass, have a walk, MOOO at some shit, it'd be great.

Hmm they may possibly use it for traveling, but i don't think they face a certain way all day, I'm from Norfolk too, a lot of Cows here, seem to face random directions, so not sure how it would work. I also read something similar about women, in that they have a higher concentration of iron in the tip of there nose which is attributed to their greater sense of direction than men, could be bull shit tho

+1 that,. but not the new one,. the old school adam west one,. that would be awesome, and terrifying

Can we all call it a 'quad',. seems more fitting. 'ATV' is a little optimistic for the fragile little thing

dude A :I want fighter jets to remain in the game! dude B :erm there not in the game?!?! dude A :Yes they are, there on ARMA 2, and this is ARMA 2, that's a simulator, its should be on here! dude B: no friend this is DayZ, which is to become a complete Mod, apart from engine and texture/models cross over it will be effectively a different game entirely, you should not likeness it to ARMA 2 at all. dude A : OMG,. your completely right, how did i not see this, I've been a total retard, shame on me, wow i wish i kept my mouth shut, damn i'm dumb, like full retard, I'm surprised I've lived this long without drinking a chem light or falling off a ladder. dude B : its okay man,. just keep it shut next time. dude A : will do kind sir,. and thanks for your help. one can dream,.. one can dream............. So again,. how would less people on this free mod effect this stand alone game,. you gonna boycott it if you don't have 3rd on this mod?

Yeah not like this mod will never be for sale or anything. Not like 300 000 people aren't already playing the mod and will probably buy it. I'm sure Rocket would love to cut that 300 000 in half because some 1st person enthusiasts got their panties in a bunch. The question isn't what I bring to the mod at all. The question is why don't you understand that the mod will eventually be a commercial product and losing potential customers will hurt it. This mod will never be on sale,. of course it wont,. are you retarded? See many mods for sale? This imaginary 'commercial product' may one day in-fact exist,. but it does not, this mod wont magically change into it over night, this will always remain separate, your argument is beyond ridiculous.

First off you can't argue the point: 'there are some servers that do allow it, and other that do not, its your choice' Its a fact that 3rd persons make the game so much easier, and seeing as character are shared across all servers its exploitable. Someone could easily gather items and such on a 3rd person server, then hop on to a 'real' server without 3rd person, its the same with cross-hairs and tags. But also you can't argue that 'this is a simulator', read what rocket has written about what he wants DayZ to be, it anit a simulator, more a social experiment with varied choices. Also the arguments about FOV, Pref vision and such are void, as are any links to ARMA 2, the simulators approach to 3rd person. However it is simple, 3rd person is terrible for game-play, immersion and sportsmanship, I'm so very surprised that so many want to keep it, however its not so many, just the vocal few on the forum which is barely 20% of the player base. There is no denying that 3rd person makes the game easier,. which is bad, there are too many easy game to choose from, let us have this one,. only one, you guys can keep the rest, just let us have this. How many other FPS have an option to view in 3rd person? not many really,. and there is no cry for it on them. And why don't they have it? because it spoils the game. I pretty sure the same guys who like 3rd person are the same one who like tags and cross-hairs,. probably would be keen on auto aim if it were introduced too.
