Why do my tents keep getting discovered?
Slyguy65 replied to suspectmammal's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Then the people that weren't searching would just find them... Damned if you do damned if you don't The key is too hide them in plain site meaning hide them well in a place they wouldn't think to look so you fool both groups -

Slyguy65 posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
since you know this is a multiplayer experience right. I got shot without any replies of any form....about 10 times Someone please tell me how this is not just a walking simulator...with random NPC's with guns and annoying NPC's that glitch and melee... Seriously. -
I see a bunch....i mean just every post dealing with "oh hey more bullshit happened again today...im loving it" and so on and so forth. Just curious if there was a statement about whether another hive wide ban or something like last time will be done.

How do people spot people instantly...seriously
Slyguy65 posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Whenever i get shot at i don't see muzzle flashes or anything...the sound does not help identify the angle very much...and i usually can run away while they miss....but whenever I or someone i know engages....literally within 10 seconds they find and head towards us....most times we are laying down in a tree with a ghille....WTF...just w...t..f..i don't get it... -

I was using the L85...i missed cause he zig zagged and i had forgot to zoom in at first shots but ya they were barely missing...shoulda done full auto but ya it was night and there was no name tags...i think i hit him the first shot but ya he was around bushes he spun around then instantly saw me crouched by a bush...200m away with NV that is insane...i mention the NV cause everything looks the same with NVG....i swear there were muzzle flashes or smoke or something...yet when i see someone shoot at me...i never see smoke -
ALT F4ing...i just realized something...about punishing them
Slyguy65 posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
So im sure we all know about the sometimes broken loading where its infinite (or seemingly infinite) and of course hacking (teleporting mainly) If they start punishing people who have to ALT F4 do to those problems is that not just making it worse....(BTW how the hell do people alt F4 anyway ive tried it after being put in the thunderdome and all it did was bring up that side menu. ANYWAY ya i never used to quit from a fire fight but after getting killed by a teleporter and then my friends getting killed by the same guy...whenever i am in the middle of nowhere like nowhere...not near towns....loot...or estimated camp locations i can't help but flee now...cause the 2 times i came across a person who just pops in from out of nowhere next to me then when i shoot them they don't die (full bizon mag unloaded before they even turned around) So why punish EVERYONE who disconnects when some actually HAVE to.... Don't give me that bullshit of "accept your death pussy" im not a fucking blind cultist like whoever would say that i don't say "well played" to a random trip that kills me or a hacker that teleports or flings people in the air...or nukes the map...i get the fuck out of there at the first sign of suspicious behavior happens now due to extreme influx of hacking. P.S really what are the odd of a legit log in, in the middle of the woods in the middle of nowhere south of dolina in the woods...RIGHT next to you on a server with less than 10 people server...damn low...what are the odds of a teleporter...damn high...this game is going to hell fast if something isn't done about hackers...now just from the havoc but from people like me who become so damn paranoid that they think everything is a trick or hack...(since the game is broke as fuck anyway). -
Found helicopter...comes back online the next day server is down... fifth time i find something good just to have the server be down the whole day or get deleted....

what did you use to record?

So i was thinking huh...when did the community go to shit...when did the game just become a giant deathmatch...oh right bandit skins... OPINION Here is the thing hardcorists....and all you fuckers who cry out realism (im sick of that double edged sword of hypocrisy) this IS A VIDEO GAME...just like the eating and drinking system...and the non existent stamina system (run forever) i find it idiotic how people would support things with the banner of realism or "authenticity" just to counter something that didn't agree with them under the same banner. The morphing system was brilliant for this game...you start out as whoever then choose your path...why can't they just accept the first time was the best choice. I know everyone has heard the saying about how you should stick with your first choice if your unsure... THE POINT OF THIS POST. Bandit skin should only have been the beginning, i see many posts and people having different attitudes about who they are in the game. I will jump straight to the "what you want ghillie and camo gone" no...i think there should be cloths like that too..i just think that all cloths DON'T need to be equipped. Also im not saying add the morality system back either i say just add the morphing back in. Morality while a good concept is subjective when it comes to certain things (i.e what is considered gray black and white) MORPHING BANDIT Simple what you do affects your appearance, if you kill people for a living (i.e what you chose to do that life) then you will wear a bandit skin. Now how to expand on this concept. VIGILANTE People who kill bandits would have a vigilante skin, perhaps a scrappy torn military uniform or police uniform *COUGH* mad max MEDIC People who heal others with bandages and epi pens, blood bags what have you. THIEF (if they ever make non lethal takedowns a possibility) People who go around stealing peoples things (but not kill, as in hold them up, a strange unknown concept to most of you blind murderers i know) would have the thief skin, thieves would be branded as such as after stealing from others backpacks or tents/cars this would cause either shoot on sight or curiosity to go and talk to them. Since you would know they don't kill people but instead just get what they need or what they want. ZOMBIE SLAYER (If they ever make zombie killing a viable option) A zombie slayer skin would be nice to see as well, pretty much if you say "fuck stealth' and go in to clear a town temporarily (i mentioned how this could be a nice feature, by having the zombies killed in towns spawn about 100 meters or so outside and slowly walk back in so as to induce the feeling that the people who are clearing the town have attracted the attention of outside threat.) EVEN MORE? EXPERIENCED SURVIVOR SKIN? There could be more unique ones if wanted for example if you have lived for a long time and have a lot of loot you would get the hermit skin or experience survivor skin to show how you have lived a long time. As a neutral person. We have seen depictions of this skin concept in a lot of post apocalyptic media where you come across a character who is just a big ass hoarder and has so much it can't help but show. This skin could perhaps grow a beard on the character identifying longevity and dirtied clothes and stuff on the back pack. The person who pops in my head for this kind of character is that one dude from metro 2033 that you meet and he helps you out. NOTE that the you can change your skins by changing how you play, (the concept of changing your "default" skin is like the concept of skyrim and it's class system FYI) NOTE civilian clothing would become a spawn able item and would allow people to go back to normal "default" skin for preference or to try and trick others into thinking they are friendly (adding actual deception would be nice) NOTE All equip able clothing (ghillie civilian and camo) all would overwrite the morphed skin until taken off To be truthful i think having skins and other visual indications would just help...after all it was kind of proven this system worked and was better (i.e bandit skin era) And to be truthful to deny peoples appearance wouldn't change depending on who they are is just ignorant and asinine, business men wear suits, welders wear heavy clothing, DOCTORS WEAR WHITE COATS, we all wear uniforms of some kind. "that is not real life this is post apocalyptic"....ya ok bitch well hmm have you ever played fallout ya...mechanics still wore blue collar clothing, and doctors still wore lab coats... EVEN SO no professional clothing we all wore what identified who we were...cheerleaders wore different clothing than geeky girls...jocks wore different clothing then fat nerds...seriously it doesn't matter what happens to the world people will still take on roles and make sure to let others know who they are through ways of identification ONE OF THE BIGGEST WAYS BEING VISUAL P.S To all the PVP whiners who will hate on this by saying things that will translate to "NO NO NO I WANT TO FOOL PEOPLE INTO NOT KNOWING IM NOT A KILLER I WANT THEM TO THINK I AM INNOCENT SO I CAN STAB THEM IN THE BACK MUHAHAHA"...you can still do that by going and finding civilian clothing...civilian would be just like ghille and camo except it would obviously spawn in residential areas...why should it be made easy for PVP killers they should have to go and find a disguise to try and fool people IMO To bad this won't happen...oh well. *EDIT* HOW THE "COUNTER" WORKS You never play skyrim? You get what you do most. You would need to do a lot of one thing to get the skin for example 5-10 acts depending on what skin i.e murder/bandit kill skins would be 5 kills and for zombie killer you would need 10 zombie kills (i would like to see it personally at 50 but no one just goes around killing zombies since right now this ZOMBIE MOD really gives no incentive to kill zombies since they just spawn back instantly and are just annoying not challenging.) medic would be about 10 or 15 acts of healing others i give up on thieving ill just leave that to the survivor skin. The counter would reset for the ones you don't have the most in. Example If you have done multiple acts say 1 heal 3 murders 2 bandit kill After a small amount of time it is prioritized which task you have done most and resets (i would like every other second or so but a minute would be fine) you would then have 0 heal 3 murders 0 bandit kill (NOTE this would not be the same as your debug monitor this would be an unseen stat that merely records your actions) You only get the skin if you focus on one subject if you don't and just do all the above you stay survivor. P.S Once you have attained a skin say the bandit skin, your "unseen" stat counter would reset everything back to 0, You would really only morph into a skin if you really played that way. MOST PEOPLE would still be survivors these skins are not to rewrite the survivor skin merely give more identification to how people play, which is not wrong or unrealistic IN FACT it is unrealistic for a medic to look like a normal person when they clearly want to be identified as a medic or a vigilante wanting to be recognized by bandits and survivors alike. In all honesty rocket and crew are doing nothing except catering to PVP people since bandits are just about the ONLY ones who don't want skins so as to hope everyone views them as just another survivor...well that plan sucks as clearly seen by the downfall in human communication in game after bandit skins were taken away. Now it doesn't matter what they look like i see no reason to bitch about skins/morphing due to how you play. Most "bandits" (snipers/campers) just hide on a tower or hill anyway hoping to not get seen wearing a ghille suit...so why the hell would bandit skin even affect them now? Since i clearly said camo/ghille would override your "active" skin.

Please no classes,leveling,currency! Just Skins
Slyguy65 replied to Carneshiver's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
understandable i take it you just want vigilante medic and bandit? i agree i said in a post on that thread where i gave up on the thief skin since there is no non lethal approach (not really) but i think the experience survivor skin would be nice TBH since every post apocalyptic setting has some kind of hermit character who has survived a long time and has a bunch of junk and stuff. -
Skins are important (morphing to be more specific)
Slyguy65 replied to Slyguy65's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
achievements? in quotations? who are you quoting? Also i take it your new...meaning you were not here when the skin morphing was in the game... How it USED TO BE is people would morph into a bandit skin if they killed 2 people...there is no achievements just a system that identifies how you play. -

i mentioned the road in a post long ago... the thing is that was PURE HUMAN FACTOR...there is fucking zombies in this mod...they are non existent to players since people just avoid them and find them to be a annoyance not a challenge...and even then people still talked...even if they did shoot at you...also there was distinct visual differences like when they come across the bandits...and the cannibals and when they came across other survivors...just saying.
