Saw this over on reddit.... Almost pissed my pants laughing!

Hi All, First post! Right, so I've only been playing dayz for about a week, though I'm an ARMA 2 vet... Anyway, I just thought I'd chime in re:the new patch. I think it's AWESOME! The way I look at it, the zeds won the war, right? They destroyed civilization, to include "winning" the war against the most modern, high-tech weapons of war imaginable. THEY WON. So I would expect the game to be a challenge for a lone survivor washing up on shore a few weeks later, with nothing on him but a bottle of asprin. Right? So we shouldn't be able to run around without a care, the zeds more an annoyance than anything. They should be VERY scary. I've watched all the FrankieonPC vids on youtube (hilarious!), but you can tell that the zeds are a joke to a properly kitted player. That doesn't make sense, how were they able to wipe out civilization if a guy with NVG and an AKM can be so overpowering? So last night I started a game on the new patch. First game, went in to Electro... got spotted and swarmed. The end. Second game, spawned over by the little town on the Southwest coast. I skirted the town, and headed for the cluster of 3 treestands north of there. I was able to sneak in and out, having gathered a map and some soda as loot. BTW, stealth is my weak point, been needing to work on that anyway. Went to next treestand, got in and back out with the UZI style pistol and some ammo. Went to the third stand... This one had 4 zeds, hanging much closer to the treestand, not wondering off.... Decided discretion is the better part of valor in this case. Better find some shelter and food... See? I think that is what makes the new patch an improvement: you have to scout, stay low, and make hard choices... And even then, you probably won't make it out alive. No more run and gun. Which will just make any PvP you do eventually get into all the more dramatic. Just my 2 cents. The Honey Badger.
