    Yeah, aint that the truth.Baseball Bats do more damage to you than they do to the zombies.

    I suggest you get the fuck rid of Infections or make antibiotics actually spawn places. My reasoning is this. As a new spawn you are fucking fucked if a viral zombie so much as looks at your fart vapour. If you're lucky enough to get an Axe/Bat/Crowbar you still have a fucker of a time killing a Viral Zombie in 1 swift hit whilst keeping him distant. ESPECIALLY after running for 300 meters just to find a fucking enterable building with more than 1 exit. 13 hits it took for me to actually kill a Viral zombie when aiming for the chest with a bat. Try aiming for the head of a flailing cunt with a melee weapon. I dare you. DayZ has turned into a run from EVERYTHING until you get a gun, then run some fucking more because there may be a player near you. I committed suicide 6 times in a row because I got tickled once by a Viral zombie as a fresh spawn, and like fuck would I find anti-biotics, I've found 2 mountain Dew and 0 anti-biotics as of yet. And when I do get a gun I lag out of my fucking tits because of terrible optimization and get killed by some fucking cunt with an Axe. Good job guys, making the game a 95% failure rate for new spawns.

    I've been an atheist for many years now. But today I witnessed something I class as a miracle, something that makes me think perhaps there is a God after all. I legitimately found some antibiotics. It's only taken me 20 hours of game time since 1.7.7.1, but I found some! Again. I find that to be ridiculous.

    But you told me to adopt a different play style, Previously I would spawn on the coast and go East or West to which ever was closest between Cherno and Elektro, Searching every building for at least a melee weapon, but inevitably getting hit. Now you're telling me that since sneaking around is being unsuccessful I should return to my old tactic of keeping to the coast in order to search for defensive items?

    Okay, as a fresh spawn with a bandage, a painkiller and some flares, I will abandon my hopes of looting the settlements close the the spawn, I will run aimlessly inland in the hopes that I come across a less known settlement so I feel safe actually going slow without fearing from bandits, I will spend 1 hour looking through buildings before I even find a weapon of any description. I will then spend 3 hours running around getting lost because I don't have a map and have no clue where I am. I will then stumble up on a small settlement and go into a warehouse only to have a zombie glitch through the floor, run at me and punch me in the face. Sounds fun pal. Edit: I just spent 2 hours playing, spawned in Kamenka, went to Komoravo, Bor and then Pavolo. During the 2 hours of proning through built up areas and sprinting through fields I have found nothing but tin cans and useless items like a Holy Book, Lots of flares, a Jerry Can, Arrows with no Bow, Shotgun pellets with no gun. The 1 useful thing I have found during those 2 hours was 1 can of pasta and a Coyote pack, which was being camped by a zombie thus I could not get to it. My thirst meter is literally pixels away from flashing and I have nothing to defend myself with other than hoping to lose Zombies in some bushes, and maybe some flares if they care about them which seems to be a 30% chance that they will move to the flare, look at it and then disperse. But you'll be glad to know I haven't been hit once! I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!

    My sentiments exactly. I've spent nearly a thousand hours on this game, then I took a 3 month break from it. Came back to find it ruined. So I was pissed. Hence the swearing, but golly gosh it is so frustrating to have such a good game get anally molested by a good mechanic executed disgustingly wrong.

    Now, I'm going to bed, so I'll let you flick your beans over who's wrong or what ever. But you haven't seemed to have sifted through my compassion towards this game in the form of angry rants to find my points so I shall reiterate them now. For the evidently simple minded folk. The Infection that kills eventually with such a slim chance of a cure is laughable. Surely it would be more balance and more fun to make the zombies themselves hit harder to do roughly 250 blood damage per hit on top of reducing the infection to disperse from your bloodstream after 4000 blood has been removed. Or failing that, keep the infection as it is, but boost the spawn chance from 2% and perhaps give zombies a chance to drop the antibiotics. Because y'know. People would have carried medicine around before dying. Happy now that There was no cursing or ranting in there? Hmm?

    ARMA 2 is a Pegi 18+, by extension DayZ is too, by extension the forum must be too. 18+ year olds can't swear? Fuck it. If I get banned for it I won't come back to the forum. Simple as. Swear words are words. Nothing more, nothing less. Get off your high horse.

    No, my anger solves nothing, the developers should though. My anger shows that I have passion for this game and to see it get fucked in the ass like a 6 year old sex slave annoys the shit out of me. As for my attitude, people fail to read, take my words out of context or give them their own. I'm going to call them idiots, in one form or another. Simple as that.

    Congratulations, you have determined that condescension and insults are much akin to each other. Did you figure that out all by yourself? As for people laughing at me, I don't give a shit. They can laugh all they want. Doesn't affect me. I'm laughing at the execution of the infection mechanic.

    Infections

    I'm discussing that the infection as it stands is fucking stupid. I swear because I'm angry at it, I conduct myself quite well to be honest, I haven't been calling people cunts, niggers, faggots, jews or any other racist or otherwise names. I'm expressing my displeasure at a good mechanic packaged stupidly whilst using colourful language. If you find cuss words offensive don't click on the topic again? I don't intend on censoring myself because some people dislike 'naughty' words. It's up to you to avoid or ignorr the words you don't like.

    I am agitated, I said so at the top of this topic. But the trend seems to be that people refuse to actually read things. And guess what comes with anger? SWEARING! That was me being condescending by the way. As for insulting, I have merely pointed out that people have failed to read my previous posts.

    Infections

    No, I don't run up to them in the open and pick fights, sometimes you get cornered in a building with no weapons. Sometimes you get hit whilst running past a zombie. Sometimes you get hit through walls. Sometimes zombies run whilst in buildings. Sometimes you get shot and knocked out then infected. as for weak weapons, I used an Axe on a Vile zombie. Normally does 4.5K blood damage to a human, right? Took me 4 swings to kill the guy indoors, but he lunged forward and raped my immune system with a breath. Fun huh? But wait, it gets better. Axes aren't the easiest things to find when your only option is a building with 2 exits so you don't get cornered, or the other option is to wait in a bush for 30 seconds to lose Zombie agro, only to prone your way into a building in the hopes of an Axe or a machette. Totes fun brah.

    With a forum set around a game where you can shoot people in the face with various weapons, I'd get cautioned for swearing? Okay. I can see why Riot don't like swearing on league of legends, but no swearing for a bloody and violent game. Makes sense mate. As hard as it may seem, I like the idea of infections, just the way it is now is fucking ludicrous. To the point of myself getting infected 7 times within the space of an hour followed by standing still for a minute whilst the zombies paw at me like kittens, or I throw myself off a tall building because I'm not surviving this infection. Stealing 3 blood a second until you die because you're not finding pills any time soon. Picture a fresh spawn with nothing. Losing 3 blood a second. No food, no weapons, no point at living with the infection. Fun right? Nah.
  21. sabre05

    Infections

    No, not making infection a non threat, I'm not saying make the tablets a 50% spawn chance, but 2%? Really? a 2% chance on living because such a common thing looked at your shadow? Really? And my suggestion with the 3-4K blood loss came coupled with Zombies that hit for 250 blood each rather than nothing at all. Losing a quarter to a third of your health from 1 zombie attack, on top of 250 blood from the actual hit seems more balanced to me. But I guess you are maintaining your lack of reading abilities.

    Wow, you literally just re-iterated everything I just said, then put a spin on it to seem like I want a game involving zombies to be realistic. Such a talent you posses. And no, I'm not suggesting this disease be more realistic in the way it kills you. I'm suggesting upping the spawn rate of the pills or making your immune system fight the fucking thing off after 3-4000 blood loss. Someone else who lacks the ability to read.

    Then you have an inability to read, it would seem. Sure I have gone off on tangents, but the topic is called infections, and I have constantly said that the infection ALWAYS kills because the cure for it has such a retarded low chance of even spawning, let alone those spawns being found by players before you can get to them eg. Elektro and Cherno. All the while you cough your fucking dick off making yourself detectable to any players nearby who would just shoot you on sight. Fun right? But lets say you get infected with an Axe in your hand, you can kill zombies and hope you get some cans of pasta and coke, maybe some bandages, Prolong your death for as long as you can. You will still die within 2 hours unless you find a hacker box with some antibiotics in. Fun right? This infection just makes sure that the average life span is 1 hour and 9 minutes as the website suggests. before it I would survive 15-25 days at a time until I came across a bandit I didn't see. That was fun. Going into cities with the fear of being fired up on by another scavenger. That was intense and fun. Crossing fields inland constantly looking left and right to ward off snipers. That was fun. Braving Stary Sobor and Novy Sobor to get military loot. That was fun. Going to the NW airstrip at the dead of night to reduce the chance of snipers killing me. That was fun. Dropping dead no more than an hour into my life due to a cough is not in any way shape or form fun. I do hope you understand what I am saying now that I had to spell it out.

    What my point is this is a fucking game, it is not an out and out 'real life simulator' stop throwing the fucking word 'realistic' around or the 'if this happened herp de derp' Because guess what? IT'S NOT REAL NOR WILL IT EVER HAPPEN so shut the fuck up about realism, you want realism? DO IT IN REAL LIFE! I want a video game to have fun on. For example. Spawning on the coast with no weapons before was quite annoying but you would live with it. Spawning on the coast now is like playing Call of Duty against a team of 6 people when you are on your own, you own a sniper rifle and have 1 bullet. Kill all 6 of them. There's almost no fucking point. Spawn > get chased for 10 minutes > (if you're lucky) find a melee weapon > fend off the zombies > come across a vile zombie who takes fucking beats, shrugs it off and dribbles on your shoulder > get infected > die. Sounds fun right? FUCK NO it does not. It would be more fun if, lets say the zombies actually hurt you when they hit you, instead of tickle you and say "coochy coo!" it would be more fun if you weren't killed off every time because of an infection, rather than other survivors in a broken world, or indeed stronger hitting zombies. It would be more fun if the infection fucked off after a while leaving you with less blood than when it found you. It would be exponentially more fun if the 'Realism' people would fuck off. Dean Hall said that he can't make the world realistic, he can make it authentic though.

    Hi, if you had read a few posts ago you would have seen me state that for some reason 'Enter' does not function on this website and thus I can't space my paragraphs accordingly. Guess it pays to read, huh? I don't care about infinite zombies, the guns and ammo spawning. I really don't in fact I enjoy it. I use those examples against the "oh well that wouldn't be realistic" kind of people. When I guess they don't know but - IF I WANTED REALISTIC I WOULD ATTEMPT TO DO THE THINGS IN REAL LIFE RATHER THAN ON A VIDEO GAME. Something designed to be fun. but guess what, I don't find being infected by a near incurable disease 5 minutes after spawning to be fun. Call me a fucking retard, but I don't. In fact I would have more fun playing Call of Duty without a keyboard.
