The Law (DayZ)

I feel like I am the only one these days that goes to the effort of finding a private or heavily moderated server to play the REAL game script kiddie free. I mean, enough with all these 'MEGAMODS' and totally altered DayZ premises. Lets get real!

*bows* I agree. From my experiences, the kits of heroes is really varied to availability and personal taste. Another thing. Heroes commonly pride themselves in being 'bandit slayers'. Now to achieve the bandit skin that marks you as a target for heroes, you would have to do some killing yourself. And yah, you might have picked some easy kills, but more times than not, you have to have at least some hostile sense and strategy to rack the kills for bandit. Now, heroes are killing the bandits, so having a comfortable and tactical set of weapons to slay these sometimes challenging hostiles is the key component.

Good golly, that's some fine writing. I guess the idea of ANY story just doesn't appeal to me. I think one key aspect in this games likability is the chance for players to forge a story of their own from scratch.

Poof. You start to hack into a vault and YIKES, 100 zombies suddenly fall from the sky and rush your way. We already have flying survivors with rainbow hack farts, lets keep the realism we have control over to a sane number.

That's my thought process also. I don't want to have to worry about degrading packs and reorganizing. So, it takes QUITE a while. And also Ander, I love the idea that bullet holes riddling the pack would sink the quality of the pack. Bravo *claps*

My first weeks where really enjoyable and laid back, which is quite a rare phenomenon for the first week or two. That's because I had already made arrangements. Two of my friends from Minecraft, who where long-timers in DayZ, directing me to their privately owned server. I got a heli pickup and was taken to their base and provided a hefty sum of survival kitting. That server was where I spent my first week. When I started on the public servers, I already had caught wind to the mechanics and was practicing a style that fitted me perfect.

I saw a group of 3 heroes like a week ago. Here is the load out ~All had ALICE packs ~1 had an AS50 ~1 had an M14 ~1 had his Makarov sidearm out and had a M4A1 CCO SD After killing two and only managing to clip the third before he logged, they had rangefinders, a Mk light machine gun, an M9 Silenced, and to my surprise a tactical shotgun. I have yet to make sense of the whole setup...
