    Survey results are in!

    so your saying if i dont mind the changes, cant give an honest answer (eg since ive only been playing for 3 months i cant answer if i feel if the devs are out of touch) my voice should not be heared? You cant get a accurate sample if you dont cover the 3 basic bases, yes, no, maby. Not everyone who plays dayz care about if the devs and the commuinites get along but may care about stuff that is fixed or added or changed. i dont know the underlying issue that made this an issue but i do care that something i thought was neat was affected. Im sure others feel the same. All im really trying to say is they way you ask a question and present answers influences peoples answers. Exsample would be simply removing each mutiply choice answer to the questions and replacing it with yes, no, maby, the result would be noticeable different. Tho if someone who gets what im saying can explain it better do, i feel i'll end up going off topic. As i said in my first post, fully support the surey but felt it was rushed. nothing wrong with that.

    Survey results are in!

    I have to say i feel a little uneasy with the survey, for reason that have already been stated by others plus a few other reasons. First off i felt you gave no middle ground in answers, where is the I dont know, I dont mind, Have no opinion(?) on matter etc option, it basicly felt like a yes no set of answers pushing me to no. And second (and last i dont want to nit pick cos i agree with the idea of the survey) i felt 24 hours was to short of a time, since this is something that covers all time zones, 24 hours just seems to limit your results to the people who happen to be online at that time. Anyway thats just my 2 cents, all in all tho i fully agree with the idea behind the survey but i feel it was slighty rushed. But ya at lest tring to do something.

    KoS, an examination

    To be fair the main reason people (well mostly babi's and fresh spawn) KoS is trust, you could make it so zombies are as tough as nails and need a small army to kill but without trust its not going to happen. Sidechat helps (apart from "sniper in such and such a place), you can talk and chat crap to other players without being near them, make "friends" as such and so on but not all servers have side chat. When i started (in december) i had a simple policy, no KoS, that changed after my first day. Personaly i dont blame players who have been around awhile, when you've been there and done that a few 100 times it gets old. I could give a few ideas about KoS but no doubt they have been said befor, again and again. This is after all just a mod of a game, simple as that. there are limits to what can be done and until standalone dont expect things to change until then. Yes we get to test some feture that will make it into SA (tho in a more polished unbuggy way), yes sometimes getting sniped its annoying but lets face it, Welcome to Dayz. Its unforgiving, unrelenting and will punish you over and over, yet we come back for more. Each death i learn something new, now i know to traval via woods, move fast across open plains (if i cant avoid it), sometimes the longest route is better (even tho longer) etc etc and so on. At the end of the day we bought and own Arma II and OA and we play a mod. that is a choice we all made (even tho i think arma II is fantastic and well worth every penny spent). When stand alone comes out most likely there will be more of a PvP/PvE devide but as it stand the mod is more PvPvE with little devide. as im sure the devs would agree, there is a limit one can do when making a mod. Well thats my badly put to paper 2 cents. P.S sorry for any simple spelling mistakes, not got time to read this though again, blame my mother shes the one who passed on dyslexia (and the colour blindness lol). P.P.S btw this isnt intended to be aggressive incase any of it comes across that way. Marv
  5. Well to be honest and being new to the game i didnt relise that the dot thing was anything helpful, only notice it once in a blue moon when it came to Zeds that was just off my screen. I thought it was sun glare most of the time. On a side note, Panda your a god in my eyes. this server is a dream come true, within my first hour of joining and exploring Cherno i met people.....and they didnt shot me on site, infact kinda worked together. This is a server i would recomend(?) with out a moments thought to anyone of my friends.
  6. Name:- Patch Location:- England, North East. GUID:- ef490d1f0371a7622b1b933e585d5996 been looking for a server thats active and not full of script kiddies and maby if im lucky people who wont shot first and rob me later (well apart from bandits but thats to be expected haha)
