All very good points. Thanks.

Seriously Odin, I love Dayz. I am NOT for PvE. I am NOT for PvP. I am for all of it. Without both parts it wouldn't grab me as much. It seems anytime a person is against deathmatch they immediately get accused of just wanting a game for PvE. The reason I am so against deathmatch is because of the way players do it. Without any regards for smart play. No one will ever convince me in a real scenario you would risk getting killed over a bandage or just for fun to kill somebody. I want to see a zombie horde(even a glitched horde) come down on somebody playing stupid. This sought of play should not be catered to (i'm not suggesting the devs are btw).

No I disagree. They will just quit the game saying, "Wtf is this? A basket weaving game? I'm outta here." Once they can't gear up in 3 and can't KOS with immunity or die from hypo or hyperthermia, Adios.

Guys, you have to start playing smarter. Just because I don't KOS doesn't mean others don't. I don't trust anyone. I don't go by anyone. If I see someone I avoid them like the plague. If they are stupid enough to attract z's and not run away then their fate are in their hands. Again, don't trust anyone. I don't buy into the BS that just because everyone does it (KOS) that I have to do it. People, especially in a game world, are really vile creatures.

BS right there. You ALWAYS have a choice. Always show strength. Better to have the best and not use it. Ignorant people believe only in the gun.

Airfield forget it. I tried. He has a reading comprehension deficiency.

No they are following a plan they had from the beginning. And it isn't going wrong. Did you read my signature (you know, that block at the bottom of the post that appears every time I post). I figured you would have extreme difficulty understanding it. Go figure.

Are you fricking kidding me? The game is what the developer wants it to be. If you don't like it, don't play it. Not all game developers are money grubbing SOB's who want to cater to a bunch of whining, complaining and entitlement minded jerks. The game is becoming exactly what was planned all along. Read my signature line and keep reading it until you comprehend what it says if you're capable. If you're trolling then congrats because you and people like you piss me off. It's not about YOU and what YOU want. It's about what Rocket wanted or wants. I don't care if 99% of the people want deathmatch. It's about the entire spectrum of survival (PvE and PvP). What makes you think game development is a democracy? If I was developing a game I wouldn't give a flying crap what you wanted. It would be what I wanted. If I didn't make money off of it so be it, but it would be mine. I hope I spoke simple enough for you dgeesio.

Wipe us BI, wipe us. Cleanse us from the uncleaness. Remove the evil among us. All hail THE WIPE.

They didn't pay for it. Mommy and daddy did.

Although I collaborate with myself. It's a lonesome journey but then I don't have to worry about some idiot next to me shooting and bringing chaos down on me. Also one mouth is easier to feed than not one.

This is what you stated. Brian Hicks stated "Zombies have never been the real threat, and never will be. They are part of the env pushing player interaction." "They are part of the env pushing player interaction" is a far cry from "never really been about zombies". And that my friend is what I am hoping the game will be. If you have followed or read most of my posts than you would know I am not against PvP. I AM for PvP balanced with PvE (ie: zombies and environment). I never once stated in all my postings that I want exclusively to have zombies be THE threat. They can't be. Computer models can never really take the place of the unrationality and unexpectedness of human players no matter how good the AI is. But they can be challenging and punish you for doing something stupid like shooting your gun off in a zombie infested city which way too many players do. And yeah the CoD comment was supposed to be an insult. Too many have come to this game with the mindset it's another twitch shooter with zombie apocalyptic dressing... When in reality it has been about l l l \l/

Really. Where? Point me to a dev read where they say it isn't about the zombie apocalypse and survival. You sure you ain't mixed up with CoD or BF or CZ?

As far as i am concerned Dean had an awesome idea and was able to make it function with a limited skill set. Whether he stays, leaves or whatever doesn't matter. He started a whole new genre. Dayz will always be THE yardstick (or meter stick if in rest of world). Will there be better games? Probably. But none will capture the imagination like DayZ. All hail Rocket!

oh so there was eating and drinking in Arma? Illnesses? Melee? weather effects? What game were you playing? Go back to your twitch shooters, will you.

No, he didn't put zombies in ArmA. He put a survival aspect into a post apocalytic event. That's the problem with you CoDers and BFers. All you see is loot and shoot.

I think they're out to get you.

Not one single streamer plays the game with any kind of stealth. Talk about being bored. I watched this one female streamer. All she did every night for hours was server hop to gear up and then go on a killfest. Every SINGLE night. Once in awhile she would play other games. Needless to say I stopped watching twitch. Anybody find a streamer with a fresh breath of air (like playing to survive), please let me know.

There's nothing wrong with this Alpha.

Why would we do that. We're fanboys. Nothing wrong with the game. E.....V.....E.....R

I don't play to get geared up. I play each and every character as if it is the only one I would have. Therefore I don't go to high risk areas off the bat. My goal is to stay alive. I do risk going into towns but not high trafficked ones. Even if I have only the Tee on by back (torn into rags of course) I don't have the mindset that it's OK to risk it. I also only play on 1st person sites. That's what makes this game so great. Everybody gets to play like they want. I do however have strong feelings on certain things.

Xbow, you had good luck, I had bad. I soughta went into a little rage because my char wouldn't run. Got hit by a z and took away my life along with the sporter 22 (sigh). I love that gun. Quiet to other players. Kills zs rather efficiently. I wasn't geared all that much. Btw, loving that. It feels more like I'm scavenging in an ongoing apocalypse vs being geared like Rambo in 20 or like it just hit and stores were stock full. It took awhile to accumulate the little I had. Was surviving on berries and apples mostly. Good times.

Unknowing. It tells you every time you log into the game. And then you have to press at the bottom to continue. WTF?

I always play from where I'm spawned and I also leave that point immediately. The only bad spawn point . . . wait there aren't any bad spawn points. Only bad, whiny, immature, spoiled, bitching, lazy, cheating, game ruining people.

I am always scared shitless.
