Just saying, your idea of enhancing a game seems to be to ruin it for others. Why waste ammunition on someone running from zombies. Better saved for a more dire situation. But that is the beauty of the game itself, there is no right or wrong, and by shooting that player if I aggro a mob (with an enfield its gonna happen) and die and lose all my gear, do I run to the forums and complain that the gun is too loud? Or that the players should be less lucrative to shoot? No, because I accept the game for what it is. I've had people ask for help, only to be shot in the back after I helped them. Did I complain? No, I respawned and hunted them back down. It's this mentality that everything has to be balanced that is dumbing down the playerbase. I'm not saying it needs to be balanced just that players should be stuck with a single persona and thus their reputation as a player will spread based on what they do and players will interact with them based on what they have heard. basically remove the ability to be completely anonymous. This and allowing players to set up fortifications is all I am really asking for anymore. These two things do nothing to harms anyones gameplay or play style. I mainly support suggestions that encourge teamwork and being friendly towards other players, since this is still in its alpha state, I can only hope that working with other players becomes worth the risk by the time beta rolls out. also couldn't you just avoid the player instead of capping him in the leg? also right now I"m stuck avoiding other players because even if they don't have a chance to even hit me, they still shoot at me when i'm hunting cows. (stupid kill on sight players.) So what you're suggesting is that a person who commits murder in a lawless society with little to no witnesses, should have some sort of lasting reputation that would alert other players of his/her intentions? If I put a round into your skull from 600m, you should automatically know who did it? Do I need to go on? It just doesn't fit with this style of game, you're suggesting they add some sort of god mechanic to the game where everyone is judged according to their actions, and that's just not how life works. In a desolate post apocalyptic wasteland, if I gun you down out in the middle of the woods and steal your beans, I could walk into town and be friendly with the next person, or I could befriend them long enough for them to let their guard down and kill them for their supplies. That's just part of the dynamic. I think what people are having trouble adjusting to is the feeling of losing hours of their hard work, and letting go of their character they have been building. Until the benefit of teaming with other survivors outweighs the benefit of ganking them, this pattern will continue.

Side chat tends to be a barren wasteland of 'FRIENDLY IN CHERNO?' and 'F U BANDIT GO BACK TO COD', there really aren't any positives to keep it. As far as helping new players learn, isn't that what wiki's & websites are for? Also what better way to learn that to throw yourself into the game?

why should I be killed,mocked,targeted for not wanting to kill other players, yet players who do get praise, and defended? seems kinda backwards to me. I think you're missing the entire point here. We are not mocking you for not wanting to kill another player, we are mocking you for wanting to apply your own personal rules to the game. You don't want to kill other players? Then don't. Avoid humanity at all costs. But don't complain and come here suggesting changes to the game because you won't adapt. To be perfectly honest, there was a time when I would drop some mags for a player out of ammo, and would give food to someone who needed it. That time was back in April. There's too many new players now, and i've been shot in the back of the head too many times to trust anyone except my personal friends. If I saw you running from a horde of zombies i'd sooner kneecap you with my enfield and keep moving, not because I want to ruin your gameplay experience, but because I want to enhance mine. Stop taking things so personally. Just saying, your idea of enhancing a game seems to be to ruin it for others. Why waste ammunition on someone running from zombies.

Gaming the system? Please elaborate. Theres also no such thing as farming kills' date=' the game doesn't reward you in any way, shape or form for killing other players, other than the loot they carry, in which case that's just another form of scavenging. Sorry but I firmly believe that every play style is a part of the experience. Whether it be solo'ing it and hunting for beans in the middle of BFE, or sitting ontop a building in chern and killing for fun, it all has it's place in the game. What better simulation of real life than to give people the means to be assholes? [/quote'] Your right its fine that they are assholes with no social consequence. And your right they should be the only who truely enjoy dayz, thanks to being immune to any kind of focused punishment since they can just change their name, or the server they are on. Punishment for what?

Why is it that people immediately brand you an asshole if you kill them? I don't get it. Rocket made this 'anti-game' with the intention of letting people play it the way they see fit, then when you exercise that right, you get people who tell you that you're playing it wrong because you don't want to team up and share supplies. At first I thought the whole carebear thing was just a funny term to troll people with, now i'm seeing just how much it applies these days. It's like playing tag with a bunch of grade school kids who want to randomly change the rules to benefit themselves. Not to sound like a broken record, but learn to play the game properly before you complain. Take cover and attempt communication with the player before you try to team up, if they seem shady, get out of there. It's the same people who run around spouting FRIENDLY IN CHERNO WHOS SHOOTING IN CHERNO OMG HELP ME AT FIRESTATION IN CHERNO who come here bitching and moaning because someone didn't help them and instead feasted on their delicious blood beans.

There is no 'right thing to do' on the internet.

Dunno who the neckbeard guy is in the background but damn he's got an annoying voice

Cool casual sexism bro. Now pretend that you don't care and that you were 'just joking' (Protip: Jokes are funny) and we'll pretend that your super edgy-ness is cool and stop talking about it because we're men and its 'uncool' to call people out on their casual bullshit.

Have you never died from starvation? I have. So no' date=' food isn't everywhere. Maybe in the big cities but up north where I like to play this is not the case. [/quote'] if your up north why arent you gutting animals and cooking steaks? Because you can't gut an animal with watches and empty czech packs

Another reason why all control should be taken from server operators, can't trust kids with the keys to the kingdom

"It's an alpha, deal with it HURRR" Yeah about the only thing i'm testing is how much time I can waste between being slammed into the ground at mach 4, or how easily I can avoid an airstrike in the middle of chern (hint : not at all)

No' date=' it was your last post the moment i checked... just trying to figure the player type you are. Shocking news for you: you can't do it anymore with the next patch. Now return in topic or go away. Thank you. Seeing as you lack any form of reading comprehension let me make it simple for you : The ingame lighting is currently broken with the beta patch, it makes the game completely pitch black except for the sky even with gamma/brightness maxed. So your insightful look into what 'type of player I am' is null and void, much like your idea. No April, No care.

Pvt Evansaidhi [NwO] is his name, dipshit hacker couldn't even cover up his own name properly

I just got this on US 28 Chicago 22, it's the 6th server tonight where i've been instakilled, might be time to shelve the game until this is fixed

Just had this happen to me also, on about 4 different servers now. Pretty much unplayable if people can just stroll into any game they want and kill everyone

Next please. :) The fuck are you talking about? You searched my post history to try and find something to attack? And yes, I turn my brightness up so I can see at night because the ingame lighting is currently broken because of a patch. This is the reason i'm glad we have a dev with balls, and will tell you brain dead palsy having dickwads that your ideas are about as useful as a football bat. How many times does he have to say that he's not going to restrict any style of gameplay, this includes *gasp* PVP. Saying that killing another player is 'childish'? You come into a military sim based game complaining about that?

Jesus, i'd be a walking horror show. Before the humanity meter was taken away, I was pushing -30k, can only imagine what it's like now. But for the record I think any kind of visual indication of murder tendencies is as stupid as the bandit skin was. Unless I can wear a necklace made of human ears, cause that would be rockin'.

YES But only if you implement a weight system so you move faster with less gear
