Feral (DayZ)

why don't you interview randoms in-game? fraps it too might be fun

If zeds aggro towards direct in-game speech then people will avoid using it. Personally I'd like to see a version of dayz (and other games for that matter) that are played without 3rd person comms or 3rd person view. For me that would be the most realistic way to play it. Maybe in game speech could be made more able to reflect things like distance between speaker and listeners and volume eg whispering and shouting. Would make squad play very tense, you'd have to use speech as carefully as you use gunfire.

cool story bro

agreed beans

Mitch Connors vs all of them

well said, no hate here either, just not a fan

animal AI may require attention, critters be smart in real life, they soon learn to avoid men firing guns

that is a good point, not much apocalypse survival on show and the repetitive nature of 4v1 pvp just wears thin after a while

They are now part of the entertainment industry and the audiences are extremely unforgiving, if they deliver an enjoyable positive experience time and again then the sky's the limit. If they continue to favour a negative dishonourable approach then viewer numbers will dwindle as they go seeking something more pleasant, more rewarding to watch and the brand will perish, the ball is in thier court. There are more and more youtubers out there, and some of them are original and truly brilliant. When the standalone is released there will be a huge reset button pushed as even more join the market and battle it out with the established order. The wonderful thing about the free market is that it adheres to that most ancient of laws, survival of the fittest. Time will tell.

no one really disputes the fact that they can play, but in oshi's words - '' Never quite understood why people hate us so much. Disliking us I could understand, but a lot of people seem to froth at the mouth when our names are mentioned ...'' They are disliked by more people than I'm sure they'd like to be, this discussion is a great chance for them to get some constructive feedback and maybe make some changes to thier approach, this will only increase thier popularity and make sacriels decision the right one. If they themselves feel hated then something is not right, no brand will survive very long if hate is allowed to take seed, because hate spreads like cancer.

Don't be fooled, the 'community stuff' is all about self promotion, a way of getting bullshit swallowers to subscribe, increasing revenue and a steady supply of fanboy fools to keep telling them how great they are. Trouble is they are starting to believe thier own hype edit - respect to oshi though, at least he has the balls to turn up and join the discussion

Th I'ts ok to be good at something, generally those who excel at things recieve respect from those who appreciate it, but there needs to be some humility and respect shown to others if you are seeking to be liked. In the mitch Connors video, it seems to me that you are expecting some kind of adulation when you mention your name, and when these guys slated sacriel and mocked your internet fame you seemed almost dumbstruck by it, you tagged along with thier group and tried to pass them off as your crew when you met a buddy. The first thing you did when you met them was check one of thier backpacks, you guys just don't come across as nice or honest or honourable, I'm not saying that you have none of these things but you fail to project these qualities in your vids.

don't hold your breath dude, this guy is only too aware that should he find himself in a proper and fair fight he'd be headed for a serious dose of ritual humiliation, something i think he'll be avoiding from now on.

lol, last night I was blinking red on the hunger meter, i was hunting for anything that moved. As a kid we'd go lamping for rabbits, deer and foxes, unfortunately never lamped a pig =(

how about in pre neolithic times, just clubs and stone hand axes for weapons

I just spent an hour hunting with M4A3 CCO flashlight on a very dark server, was pretty hard but i got a pig in the end. I got to thinking whether it'd be possible to give the critters eyes a reflective quality. I used to go lamping as a kid and when we swept the treeline with a flashlight all you could see were little eyes glowing in the dark, that would make night hunting more realistic.

a whole session, some youtubers speed up the boring bits and throw in a bit of commentary and insight which i think works well

I'd like to see you play on an expert/mercenary server, yet to see a great series showing dayz at it's most difficult

great vid, your voice is too loud tho, would like to hear the others too

ok mate, who were you replying to?

lol think he was talking to the OP dude

in game physics may need looking at

agreed

you'd need to be extemely hungry, maybe the sight of human fleash would be repugnant to a player making him unable to eat it unless his hunger is at very close to zero. This would limit killing for meat and make it a bit more believable.

to the OP, you know we're laughing at you right? Over 1000 people have seen your vid dude, 1000+ DayZ players have seen you for what you are. And you are struggling to deal with it. They know you snipe fresh spawns and unarmed players, they've seen you AltF4, they have witnessed your suspicious script kiddie inventory - you are the epitome of what most gamers hate, even bandits hate you because you give banditry a bad name by dragging it with you into the gutter. In the reactions of others you are getting an uncomfortablr glimpse at the kind of person you actually are, you are seeing youself through the eyes of others and it ain't pretty, is it bro? If you'd had half a brain you'd have known what to expect but judging by your pathetic childlike rage responses to the majority's reaction it seems to have taken you completely by surprise. That is worrying. This was an opportunity for you to learn about yourself, a chance to correct a few flaws in your approach, instead your fragile ego has raised the drawbridge and denial has set in, if you're not careful this experience, far from being the beneficial opportunity to improve yourself and your game will actually result in a hardeneing of the negative thought patterns and self destructive behaviour that you are displaying here for all to see. You were advised earlier in the thread to let this go, that was good advice, but it seems your public meltdown will continue as you insist on resurrecting the thread inviting more and more people to come and stare in horror at your broken mind.
