Yes, but is making other people pay the right thing to do?

Upload it to Tinypic. Copy the Direct link.

It was just an example; in the end, it's just a modification of DayZ and I don't feel I should pay any more money than I already have. You are right though, WarZ isn't "officially" affiliated with DayZ. My other point still stands, however.

That means that rocket wasn't relying solely on this mod for income. He already was working for BIS. And yes, I do agree that the independent devs deserve the money and attention. However, I still do not feel it's right to charge players to play a mod of the game they already paid for. If they had a free mod of it for a game and then charged for a full-out game based on it (Again, just like DayZ), I think it's significantly more justifiable, as I'm actually paying for a product, not for the ability to play a part of a product I already own. If it's imperative that the dev requires money to continue working on the mod, they could just as easily ask for donations. Plenty of mods do that, and essentially it's the best of both worlds; I don't feel as though I'm being forced to pay to play on my own game, as I'm choosing to give to a developer because I like their work, and the dev still gets the same support he deserves. Obviously this isn't going to apply to absolutely everyone and everything but that's just how I feel.

Gee, I don't know. Besides, I'm not accusing any DayZ mods of charging, I'm saying that I don't care who makes what kinda mod for DayZ as long as it's free.

SPOILER ALERT YOU NOODLE. Actually, no. Anyone who actually scrolls PAST the video deserves it. xD

I think you would have to be nuts if you were relying solely on income from a mod of a game. If they gain popularity through the mod, then that would of course mean that any projects they create afterwards will have a higher likelihood of succeeding, which they can (In my opinion) rightfully charge for and profit from. In other words, just like DayZ. That's because I rarely, if ever, buy DLC for games, because even whilst I can justify its existence, I still dislike paying for parts of my game after the initial purchase. And yes, if people were more happy to give away their money, we might see a few more good mods, but of course we'd also see A LOT more crappy ones trying to cash in on it, more than what currently exists. I wasn't referring to the standalone. The standalone is for all intents and purposes a full-on game, and I'm more than willing to agree that it's worth paying for. The only reason we know of such a game and obviously the only reason the game exists is because it became popular and beloved from being a free mod. Read the above, you'll see what I mean.

There's plenty of looting guides on YouTube for getting yourself geared, as well as some basic tips for not dying immediately, which is always nice.

Wow. I'm impressed they made such an epic video. I know it's CorridorDigital and all, but they really raised the bar with this. In fact, I'm gonna go shoot them a PM, letting them know. I know I won't get a response, but hey. (Remove the S in HTTPS:// to get your video to embed.)

I personally feel that NO mod for a game should be sold. The player had paid for the game already, why make them pay even more? I'd fully understand asking for donations or, heck, even microtransactions if you think you can implement them properly but for god's sake, I'm never flat-out paying for a random thing someone's tacking onto my game. DLC is different; they are additions to the game the company created to enhance it directly. A mod is not DLC. Not only do I have no reason to pay, but I don't feel the other person should have the authority to do that. DayZ+, Wasteland, etc, those are all great and they're mods and they're free, and they got a tonne of support and that's simply how it should be. Brilliant mods/addons get tonnes of popularity and influence. That's how it was with DayZ in the first place, AND THAT'S HOW 'MERICUH DOES IT.

My post was saying ensuring you that very few actually believe those stereotypes.

Question: Will the hats be randomly given out, or will they be earned via a sort of merit system that carries over all duels? Because if Team Fortress 2 has taught us anything, it's that hats = power, so it'd just fall down to who has a better hat.

Dohoho, I like that one. You should do more like that. "Your face" has got to be the greatest insult ever.

Or you could make them funny. ¬.¬

No, it's actually called BattlEye. If it says "Admin Ban", that means an admin had purposefully banned you.

Ah, forgive me. I mistook it as a Global Ban. I usually skim over it when it involves a ban since it's usually a Global Ban.

I highly, highly doubt anyone can manage to modify anything on ARMA with Cheat Engine.

Please refer to BattlEye's FAQ. Specifically, point 1.

Speaking of which, any chance you (Or anyone for that matter) could shoot me a PM and explain exactly why it's not possible? Just so when someone asks I know what to tell them.

Only one I can think of.

If you're actually serious, try uninstalling the game and reinstalling. Don't play whilst you have it in effect, because you'll be Global Banned and thus be beyond our help.

In which case, you should be in agreement with a post stating that the OP should refrain from using such stereotypes, such as my one that you quoted.

Anything can be misconstrued when out of context. Besides, there is context, it was a reply to the first post (Which was the only post prior to mine). Besides, even if it was somehow harsh, that doesn't mean it's offensive, especially considering to was in reply to someone else entirely But really, that's not what this thread is about, so we shouldn't really discuss it here..

Sure, give me a logical explanation as to how it's offensive and the post will be gone. :]

Perhaps it's a hardware problem. Do you have problems left clicking anything else? If not, try running ARMA II regularly. See if it still doesn't work.
