    Alternative for sidechat

    Simple fix: VoIP is always enabled if you have a microphone :D

    What if we removed the crosshair?

    Remove it please.

    NOOB question

    Turn AviraAntivir (Realtime Scanner or something it's called) off, then start the game.

    Booby trapped backpack

    Maybe some type of electro shocker instead. Knocks out the guy trying to rob you. Needs new batteries after each activation.

    Item damage by enemy gunfire.

    Standalone ...
  6. I don't want to imply stupidity, but have you checked if you are on different Steam accounts?

    Stalking the animal that is known as "Bandits"

    Where's EP.3 D: Just one thing. Though I like how you narrate in general, you shouldn't always have that long of a pause between your words. Just speak a bit faster and leave little pauses between the sentences or smth :)

    Mi-17

    You can't.

    Frustrating

    At least he did it with an axe, that's classy. Wouldn't mind if someone managed to kill me with an axe.

    Hide my in-game ping

    Or, you know, just play with them for some time and then decide? What's next, shooting competitions? -_-"

    Group spawning, hear me out

    The thing is, when you die you are dead, and when you spawn at the beach you basically are a completely different person. A new survivor. Though I sometimes hate the walking part, spawning in a location of my choice would take away a lot from what makes DayZ the game it is.

    An issue...

    If you have friends it's not THAT hard tbh

    Idea

    You mean like "Hit F to open door", "Hit F to enter vehicle" and such? Yeah, I'd want that.

    Tweaks to humanity gain/loss

    Have my beans

    Morphine/Doctor bags

    Makes sense to wait for painkillers to wear off and THEN treat a heavily hurting injury with an even more hurtful operation ... >.<

    An issue...

    Watch (or read) the Interview with Matt and read Rockets' posts.

    Stalking the animal that is known as "Bandits"

    would watch again. in fact, i did :D
  19. Would have probably done the same thing, tho my first attempt would have been to sneak out of town and let them do their business. Also, good read

    Third person vs First person view

    Yeah, totally same genre. I hate the Sims There are enough games where i can actually see my character. But i guess you are trying to say i'm not cool because i don't play cod, cs and that sht? Also, I DO play FPS, for example Left4Dead, l4d2^, some others ... I just like it better if I can see what my char is doing
  21. veristaya

    Third person vs First person view

    I play 3rd person so I can look at my cool character, the gear, stuff like that. If 3rdp is taken out in the SA I won't buy it, I dislike games where I can't see what my character is doing

    questionable kill?

    uh so pro, listening to what they do, shooting someone when you have to log off anyways to secure stuff that will be gone when you come back anyways dick move
  23. "im getting shot at" ... you actually deserve to die for opening fire on sight
  24. From the time i started playing DayZ, i always tried to be a good survivor, minding my own business but help others out if they need it. I would pick people up, give them bloodbags, morphine or whatever they needed. I trusted random survivors because i believed in everyones good intentions. I never shot anyone who was just passing by, regardless if he saw me or not, if he had better gear than i did or not. If someone shot me, i'd rather run away than take their life (if i survived the initial shots, that is) You already know where this is going. Of course, i got betrayed, abused and eventually killed. Well, no problem, i got more careful. I made sure to have vision of the people i wanted to help before they got vision of me. I made them drop their guns. Where-ever i ran, i made sure to be as sneaky as possible, scout the surroundings as good as possible and don't give anyone a reason to kill me (by pointing a gun at someone or running up to him or whatever) All in all, i was the most friendly guy i have ever seen (and seriously, i never shot anyone first, and hardly shot someone after they attacked me). This leads me to two recent stories that i wanted to share. story #1 It was quite a nice day on Namalsk Island, windy as hell tho, as it always is. I just spawned because last time i played, i got shot by a sniper from across the "river" (meaning the ocean that separates the two main islands) while i, again, had just respawned. Thanks to the little text that pops up at the bottom right corner, the dayzdb map and some observation skill i found out i spawned near a military base. "Oh well, I got nothing, might as well run there and check what's going on." The server had 4 people on it at that time. As i reach the base, i find an m16 in one of the barracks. Unfortunately there was no ammo for it anywhere, so i head towards a bigger building. As i leave the barracks i pass a guy with a DMR. I run into the building and quickly type "theres no ammo in that gun, seriously". We promise to not kill eachother and chat a bit while we are waiting for his friend. After some looting i had a coyote backpack, warm clothes, an aks74u, a cco sd and basically everything except for nvgs. The fourth guy on the server states he is a bandit. Since we have been chatting in the side chat about our location all the time he decided to get up there and kill us. While my newly found friends alt+f4 as i call out in chat that he's here, i manage to take him down. So far, so good. Unfortunately i had suffered from the cold earlier and was at about 6k blood due to an infection. Thankfully the badnit had antibiotics with him. I decide that it's time to go hunt some animals. After about an hour (the server had about 20 people on it at this time) i had gathered enough meat to actually heal myself to full. I set up a fire in the middle of nowhere and cook the meat. As i scout out the area with binoculars ... *bang* dead. Oh well, guess i scared that guy with his DMR that i couldnt even see, not hear the shot. story #2 Im in Fallujah. I had spend a couple of days to get decent gear, a car and set up two tents in a little wood. I only trust people that i have seen online regularly and that i had good interactions with so far. I think i got sloppy because everyone was friendly, or stated if he wasnt. A guy i had met several times asks me for help, he needs a bloodbag. I decide to help him. Meanwhile a stranger (Nico) has logged on. He died twice already and asks if i could pick him up and take him to the airfield because im headed there anyways. I pick him up and we make our way to the airfield, but he disconnects shortly before we reach it. Since the other guy needs my help, i go on and help him. Nico logs back in and begs me to pick him up at the airfield again. He wants me to come to the barracks so he doesnt get killed by zombies. As i wait for him utside he steps out, stops and points his dmr at me. I thought he was typing .. of course he wasnt. Dead again because I try being nice or not interacting with people at all. Now, it's not these stories alone, but A LOT that basically went all the same. Trying to be nice, get killed. I realize that the PvP part of this game is important, but killing for the sake of killing sucks, that IS NOT banditry. However, in the last two days there have been a ton of these, and I decided to be a douchebag myself now. I know, it isn't banditry (at least not to me, i think banditry should be raiding bases, maybe killing people because you were in danger of getting killed or even killing people for their loot), but I will kill anyone i see, regardless if fresh spawn, geared survivor, bandit or even hero. You picked up that beans? They had my name on it! *bullet to the face* Jealous of my Makarov because you didnt find anything yet? Well, have a clip to your head! Your Alice pack looks so much better than my coyote, i won't let you have it any longer. Why did you pick up that knife? I sure not gonna let you massacre those cute bunnies, get massacred yourself! You just ran across that field?! You killed flowers! DIE! You found morphine? Here, have a reason to use it! You are playing on the same server as i do? Well, find some new gear first. Oh, and hope i don't see yu again, and again, and again... I need a reason to kill you? lol no PS: yes, im mad, butthurt, a 12yo cod kiddie, live in my moms basement and will never have a gf /rant
