I'm curious as to why you may think women have gotta be geeks to be entertained by the game?

Jeeezzz... they added a broken Hotel to Cherno.. and a shipwreck, what more do you want!?

I'm actually surprised this thread hasn't been locked, that's about all I ever see happening on these forums. Especially when one has opinions that are not akin to the hive mind of "DayZ is Awesome!"

Is it not possible to have a third person view, but remove the ability to see around (free looking) when holding Alt? I know its an Arma thing.. but this is DayZ, it would certainly help in combating the silly advantage it gives, whilst keeping the character view. Edit - You could change the function of pressing Alt to see a direct view of the front of your character.. but it goes into some kind of close up, thats would become kinda hard to see anything advantageous.. well certainly less than it is now!

Out of sight.. Out of mind :)

I'd take the black screen of death any day, over aimlessly giving my stuff to someone who thinks they have the right to even ask for it. It's a dog eat dog world!

KoS or be KoS... take your pick.

We have had the luxury of the mod, it broke us all in.. a new player dont see all them bells and whistles the mod has when they first play the SA. Likewise I preferred the mod when it was barebones, before modders got hold of the mod and made mods of mods. New players have fresh eyes, they see DayZ how we once did, for that reason they love it! just like we did. DayZ is massive, but then you learn it.

Snuggle em.. I aint played for a while.. I'm not even playing when updates are being pushed to me through steam.. in the hopes that when I next boot her up.. I will have a fresh new experience akin to times past. DayZ is always going to be the type of game that is at its very best when you first play it, that's not to say it isn't fun when your a seasoned Chernarus survival veteran, but you will never fully get them lost, lonely, panicked, heartbreaking, emotional feelings back that you once had. This is my mindset.. Thou shall resist all temptation to click 'Play'. Thou shall try to ignore awesome sounding Dev Blogs and spoilers. Thou shall then come back in the future to enjoy DayZ once more, with its new features and with fresh spawn eyes.

The feelings the DayZ mod gave me for the first few days of playing it.. I would gladly give my left nut to have some of that, lost.. lonely.. horror and breathtaking awe back now. Any friendlies in Cherno?

Haha, gotta love all dem new spawns.

Lets face it, any encounter in DayZ is worth it, whether it be a good or bad experience. When nothing happens, that's when the game is tedious, unless you are one of those people who like to be alone. Next time you most likely wont do what you did to experience the same mistake, therefore you are learning how to survive in this hell, making you a more seasoned survivor.

Pretty much the top of any hill looking down on either a city or landscape.. with the suns rays poking through the trees.. Chernarus is so pretty at times I just find myself standing still after a long run and soaking it in for a few seconds, while thinking, WOW! I'm sure we all get them moments when you just stop and look at the sheer magnitude of what your seeing.

Good luck finding a server when its updated.

I like how everyone knows what is happening, why its happening and when its gonna happen.. before anything actually happens. I happen to know most people dont know shit about shit and until OFFICIAL words are spoken.. please stop talking about things you can only presume to know about, like you have a camera in the devs offices or something! frikken annoys me, dont know about anyone else.. Ya'll are Know all.. Know f*ck all's.

Experimental

Next time, just punch him in the head a couple times. They will instantly get the picture since, you cant really do that as a new player due to the fangly raise/lower stance design. Problem solved.

Where in my post did I mention the devs? I was talking about 'this' community... I have every confidence in them! that don't mean every patch I have to tell them I love them and that the patch is great, whilst not pointing out the changes made that break the game... then when actually telling it like it is, getting the "Game is Alpha! you moron" and such like comments from people blind to such broken things. You dont agree with what I say, that's fine, but please don't take what I said and change it in such a way as people think I'm a dick. Thanks.

Tut tut.. You cant say anything bad about DayZ, don't you know that already? too many die hard fans that just don't look at negatives with a product, they prefer to see the few positives and believe that one day everything will be hunkey dorey.. what they don't realize is their constant, "Love it", "Awesome", "Game is perfect" "Great job Devs" and who call "Alpha" constantly when someone disagrees or has a problem with something DayZ related, is actually harmful. I get it when someone has an aimless rant on the forums calling Dean Hall a dick.. or DayZ a complete fail, something along those lines, but to keep defending a broken game.. it's just silly. To those guilty of telling it like it is, do just that, but be truthful and constructive when doing so. To those who disagree with such posts, even though its sometimes hard to read your favourite game being critiqued every day, it will actually help it get better. There is a LOT wrong with game, there is no denying that.. hopefully with everyones help, even the negativity will help the game become what we all want it to become, what we can see evolving over time.. the true DayZ experience that we all want to have and be a part of.

I have, within ten minutes of playing I went stalking someone and tried to prone cut through a broken wall to head him off.. fail.

Aim of the game is do all that jazz you mentioned whilst trying NOT to die.. that's ultimately why its a survival game. Everyone dies in DayZ, its just a matter of time. Wait until you lose it all after getting jiggy with a lighthouse.

Well this thread caused a stir... Checked the calender, nowhere near April 1st!

Nice try, Sergey.

Depends what you use them for, I find they are great relief for mild to moderate headaches and dental pain! You take two at a time.. with 4 hour intervals between doses if your symptoms persist.
