Hope I get some beans for report :P (was some effort) But yeah, I got bored too. But I though if im ever gonna comment on another KOS thread in the future, I should at least have some idea what KOSing is about, on both sides.
-
aww, that's a shame, and I re-read it 3 times before posting. maybe some else will read it and explain my point better. Sorry, I don't have the best language skills Basically, rather than me playing a hero, I played as a KOSer (Not a mass murderer) so see what it would be like. added: Also, may be confusing cus it not for or against KOSers (not another rant thread), just an unbiased look at that style of play . Added: OMG, I didn't mention at the top I was testing the KOS game style *smacks head*

The thing you like the most and the thing you hate the most about the standalone ?

oh you :lol: *tassels your hair* -
when i stated playing years ago online, I saw people getting banned from game for cheating, and this worried me. Being such a noob to online life, I though 'why would anyone cheat, where is the challenge or fun?'. So I was so worried that they where just banning players that where doing really well, thinking they must be 'cheating', and cut back on power leveling (wont say the game, was old). Yeah sounds stupid of me but years later, I still don't get why people cheat in online games (excluding ones where there is money to be made)... They must fail at so much stuff

Maybe we could inject the food on the run lol But seriously, I think the delay is needed. Drinking at the water pump seems wrong to me atm, there should be delay and animated. We don't want to remove the smaller detail of the game so that we can just get on with looting and killing. Smaller details that get in the way mean more thinking, which I find more fun. Added: The eating of 20 cans to become healthy is not related to being full but more about the storage of calories. Haven't taken note of how many cans I can eat before full (in game), but if it is more that 3-4 before feeling stuffed then ,maybe the stomach size needs to be change, or the space food takes, making it take even longer over all to get full calories/energy. There was a nice video about how that system works, but forgot what it was called

some reasons for not having a mic Deaf. Shy. Don't want their voice recorded on video. Poor. Not allowed (People under 18, but wont go into that). Mute (i know, pushing for ideas here lol) Hope that helps :)

Another "I would like to see" I'm not thinking about martial arts like karate but rather 'in the moment' actions you may take, which are sometimes non lethal but give you time to escape a situation. There should at least be push/shove to get people or zombies out the way and maybe a running charge or tackle to knock over player and maybe disarm them ( i know, we need to wait for ragdoll). Main reasons as follows 1) zombies in a doorway, if you don't wanna waste ammo, you have to get an axe out or run in circles, rather than trying a quick push. 2) pushing players or zeds down stairs or off ledges. Would also help hide you intentions, if you have no weapon out or no weapon at all. Could really make you uneasy around others. 3) Charging at someone firing at you. Sometimes it the best option because running away makes you an easier target and the only option you have when you get there is to hit them with an axe. What if you could knock them over, giving you time to escape. 4) For the LOLZ.

experimental servers can be a challenge as they seem not to be reset for ages, and can be hard to find anything. I loved my run on one today, really had to look for things people had missed and encounters with people was also fun as guns and ammo are so rare :P So when I was attacked, it was normally someone with a melee weapon, thinking I had no weapon, as it was hidden in my backpack, BAM!
-
Had a search on the forum but I don't think any of the topics I found where direct enough on this subject. Also don't know if its already in game. Quite simple, Energy effects melee damage output. seems reasonable to me and a benefit of being healthy.

I needed some food, so I got my touch, went to the kitchen, crouched (i'm not squid) and went looking for some beans. After going prone from the washing machine , past the cooker and back into a crouch position at the cupboards, I saw the beans just above me head... So I sat for a bit, making sure I wasn't followed by my cat, then stud up to grab a can. Then it hit me! I have no can opener >< so. back to prone, looking for an axe in my house...

I live in a house, not a ww2 museum :P Or maybe we learnt something new about max :P

The end of bobble hat no backpack As it was Friday, I teamed up with friends, but told them I am sticking to my no backpack rule. So we when looting, one with a M4, one with and axe and me with a pistol. All was going well until we entered the office building of Electro. One of my friend fell to a sneaky bandit, and they got a shot on me as well, I ran! Then got my pistol ready to revenge! But OMG, Click, Click, Click, it didn't work, the clips where ruined (as I learnt later) but did I run? no, I got my fists out! After beating the guy unconscious, I took his m4 and shot him with his own gun :). then gave the M4 to a friend. sadly the end of this story is not as exciting, server reset, we logged into a new one, and I got shot in a door way... oh well

That's how to do it :P Skills (e.g. not kos)

See that ladder thing twice now on vids. seems it happen if you have your weapon out and use a ladder (it puts away and runs). same run thing can happen going up steps while pulling axe out. Also, 3rd person magic view skills ><
-
e) a ladder. now you know they are killers

The giant moving tree of Elektro (strange graphic bug)
Sooden replied to uninspired's topic in Gallery
Oh no, its finally happened! Run for the hills! :o -
No, I didn't fist them all to death :P just a pile of jumpers.
-
I didn't kill them, they jumped cus they were to lazy to run to loot. Its a sad problem in Dayz, people suicide for better spawn point

4) Bobble hat no backpack Though I would try a run with no backpack and no mosin or M4 as normal. Also though it would be important to still be a medic and look friendly if i could, oh and find a bobble hat. I was ready to start my new life , hearty armed with a wrench and a rotten fruit. I felt sorry for any bandit that tried to kill me. While looking for loot I came across so many backpack, for a second I thought 'maybe I just take one till I have a pistol and better clothes', but that would have been cheating. So I let them R.I.P After a run throw electro and cherno i was feeling pretty happy. I had some good clothes, lots of yellow boxes (medical supplies in yellow box) and the all powerful bobble hat. But there was still a problem, I don't like having an axe or any weapon showing on my back, so I needed to find a pistol, and this took longer than a thought... I finally found a pistol and ditch my axe. I didn't want to have to shoot every zombie so i looked for a weapon that would fit in my clothes. I don't think the knife has any affect as after slashing 20 times, the zombie didn't die, fist would have be a better option. Now at day 2 and a bit, I am fully kitted with nothing to do. Maybe its time to take silly risks and help bambis with the few supplies I carry.

How many people do you kill in a life on average?
Sooden replied to Mays (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
about 0.2 on average 3 when defending friends and asked to kill by said friends and one when someone tried to kill me when i was letting them pick up an M4 i found from last kill (i had no interest in having an m4) -
you may need the steam client for Dayz to get server list, but hard to test it right now as the steam client version is not working
-
i have no servers showing when steam is having issues. Like my steam wont connect now so my dazy is showing no servers.
