    Best people ever!

    Yep. When I first started playing DayZ I only had a videos of YouTube watched and no mod experience. All I knew is other players could kill you. I quickly learned that "could kill" pretty much meant "will kill" and became terrified. Nobody helped, and if they did help, they would soon "lol fag!" shoot me then skip away laughing. When I first met a nice player, it changed everything. He gave me loot, let me tag along since I didnt have a weapon and he didnt have a spare, and gave me everything I needed, including high end military loot. He was murdered, so I hunted him down, gave him half of what he gave me. After i logged, I tracked him down, found his group and have been playing with them ever since. It took one serious betrayal to make me distrust most things with legs in this game, but it took one nice one to turn it around.

    Good Ol' Kill-Ban

    Your restaraunt analogy was also terrible. To fix it, it's like you go to a restaraunt, and for some reason you want to rent a table. At this restaraunt, anyone can order and eat whatever they want at any table. Then you say "I want only vegetarians to eat at my table! No one else is allowed to sit or I'll kick you out!" Then you lose your table privileges. Savvy? No matter how you slice this pie, you are wrong. So wrong in fact, that you seem to be arguing for no other reason then, what? I honestly can't figure it out. But since you are leaving, I wish you a swift, firm kick in the ass on your way out the door. It's ok guys, he's gone. Must have been an only child.
  3. I starved to death twice on regular Experimental servers. Joined Hardcore, and found essentials. I have found SKS's in what I feel like is every building. Sticking out of walls, toilets, other loot (First backpack i found was on an SKS) and I have not found one piece of ammo. Oh, unless you want 400 rounds of .357! I got tons of that. But I got it sorted. No matter where you spawn, unless you get a fresh server, run to Elektro. If you run to Berezino and Svet, it will most likely definitely be looted and you will find yourself in the worst place to be in a looted map, the North East. At least from Elektro you can run to the closer small towns inland, which is laking in the NE. I guess you could try Kraz, since it was always untouched on Stable Servers.
  4. Rebooted computers, router, modem, butit still persists. Everytime I load up server list internet drops for a few minutes. I use a wireless router but have an ethernet cable connecting my desktop to the router. All the same I think I know the real problem. I have Time Warner Cable.
  5. Has anything been fixed or suggested for Standalone? Im searching like crazy and am finding no solutions. Literally every time I bring up server list, internet shuts off house-wide for 1-4 minutes. Once I connect? Perfect! But before I connect, 1-4 minutes of rage insanity.

    Can't connect to servers, "Confirmation Of Changes"

    Just played yesterday, but I got this just now. Same thing. Have you tried reinstalling? Since there are no responses yet I am wondering if this topic is somewhere else, but I can't find it.

    DayZ feels American

    Harnessed electricity, but yeah. And the internet was created in Stanford (An American University) as other credits have similar local network communications in Sweden I think and in use by the US Military before, but that could just be lies. Not an Englishman, however. fkn British and your terrible food. Also, the PC first was invented by Italians! I know, right? NASA used them for the Apollo 11 landing. But yes, we americans like ourselves.

    DayZ feels American

    Find me a fucking back story or end this thread. Good lord. If it were designed at Americans, it would be more like CoD. Face it, it's true. If it were designed for every other gamer, the company would lose money. Now, if it were designed globally, as a FUN and CHALLENGING VIDEO GAME that doesnt try to make everyone happy, then it will succeed. Yay for them being smarter than all of us.

    Have you/have you not seen a hacker?

    I've found it easier just to ignore it even if it does happen to you. Who will believe you? "Do you even know what hackz are bro? 'Sploits aren't hacks nubz! It's called desync. Go back to middleschool. You can't code bro." I guess coders say bro according to me. (they dont, but people that constantly say bro annoy me) But no, I don't code. It might be fun to learn, but back when I could have started, I was much more interested in meeting people. Essentially, I got laid in highschool. But I feel like saying "hacker" on here is tantamount to using "magic" to explain science. You most likely get a "perposterous!" before they go into an explanation of what you saw, even if it isn't "what you saw." No, he wasn't desyncing. He was teleporting down the road. "Nope, desync bro." Umm, ok. I saw 2. One teleported down the road into electro where my team was. He killed 2 other people and no one believed us. Then there was a guy in Balota that teleported, shot through walls, and he knew all of our names and IN DIRECT COMMs was screaming "FAGS! HAHAHA! YOU CANT HIDE I SEE YOU! HAHA" A video was posted on here (not the best, I admit) and it was instantly pish-posh'd "Desync, my good chap. That is all. No more of this Hacker nonsense." You know what? the truth is I don't know. I don't know any of this lingo. I am learning through Wikipedia and patient coders (honestly, how many of those have you ever met. Ever.) but I come from the Consoles, where all we knew was they cheated. Is that not the essence of the issue? I don't care if they jump into a wall that any one can jump into or manipulate the programming to allow little colored boxes around items and people. Cheaters and snitches get arm casts and stitches.

    What happens when a pro MLG player comes to DayZ

    I feel like I can hear him when I play, running off in the distance ".....MLG Bitches!.............All Day......"

    Itchy has gone Rogue

    This is Unfortunate yet inevitable. My advice is the action I now take; strapping up for a hunt. I will consider it a victory if Chernarus still stands once the dust settles. What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object? Although I cannot say, I do know this: Universes have been born out of less.

    A Little Ingame Humanity?

    Altough I am going to use the Alpha argument, that will not explain away KoS. KoS is here to stay. And throughout history humanity has never once unified against a common threat. Humanity may, in small numbers, unify against humanity. War is in our DNA. If it ever became humans vs. something else, humans will still find a way to kill other humans.

    We whined, cried and bitched, now lets move on

    We haves been under its influences for too long precious. We both loves and hates it precious. *gollum* I has jokes. All the same, I agree with you 100%. The people that complain the most Ithink just enjoy posting on forums more than thinking about what they are actually typing. I don't think people understand how much this game has yet to change.

    The beauty of this game amazes me!

    I often watch the sunrise in real life and wish God had followed Dean's game a little better. So bland, boring. But in game, Gorgeous!
  17. That's what they'll have you believe. I have joined a few "No-KoS" groups that only KoS'd. "Oh, well, he had a gun so he had to die." Wait, isn't that KoS? Finally found a hero group though. Thanks to Beck's Privateers for an honest no-KoS policy. Ironically enough, most of these people would also probably argue for freedom of playstyle. "Play this game however you want, unless it effects me negatively. Then don't play it however you want!"
  18. Unfortunately I don't believe DayZ has a parlay, so all the whining is a bit unproductive. In game I hunt your kind, so I hope we meet. Though when bored I'll take pot shots at anything that runs.

    I'm killing Bambis

    What is that? Making your own Birkenstocks while getting high and listening to Bounce Around the Room?

    How not to love DayZ? :D

    So, to recap, Do not, for any reason whatsoever: Run on rocksRun on uneven terrainRun on unpaved or maybe even paved roadsRun faster than walking speedWalk quicker than walk speed (wait, what?)Climb up or down laddersNot climb up or down while on ladderClimb ladder without using ladder (fast way down)Shoot legsGet shot in legsShoot at or get shot by someone with legsWave at someone while having legsExist in this game with legsDayZ is a tough world for legs. Like ZZTop said "We got legs, we don't know how to use them."

    Cannibalism

    Since this is a sparsely populated place to begin with, I doubt cannibalism would occur before the expiration date of canned foods. And actually Wikipedia pages are not done by common peeps. It is done by semi-knowledgable people at worst, and is always fact checked using real encyclopedias and citations. All the same, from a microbiologists point of view, there are terrible consequences from eating other humans. Cannibalism in the animal kingdom is controlled by the evolution of certain proteins that are infectious to that species. Humans have it (hence the responses with Kuru disease) though the amount to cause a negative affect is unknown since cannibalism has really only been studied by a small amount of tribes here and there. But I stand by my earlier statement: Sex before cannibalism. I'd rather walk in on 2 people boning than be killed for my meat. "Oh, sorry. I was just checking for loot. Mind if I grab that olive tac shirt thats under you? Nevermind, it's all sweaty. I'll just watch."

    Oil Filter Suppressor (Actually works)

    Yeah! Duh, the realism of this game wont allow it! Sheesh! I mean, we all know all you need to make a splint is 2 rags and one stick always. And you want a backpack? Anyone can make it since everyone is an expert seamstress. Or maybe dont hump the realism aspect every post and enjoy the ride. this is a good idea. I like it. MACHINES AND ELECTRICITY ASIDE! I like it.

    Tired of being pushed around? I can help!

    Funny that it was brought up, I make all my posts with the intention of it being a resumé. Every time I post I think "HIRE ME MODS! HIRE ME!!" Just like Dean made some mod or whatever then was hired to make this game, I have my own guerilla job hunting schemes. But yeah, this post is a debacle.

    Cannibalism

    No. Sex before cannibalism.

    Tired of being pushed around? I can help!

    Considering you have 25 posts from your own topic that was obviously looking for money through paypal (Oops, I mean assuming, good call! So so clever) I will just see through you and declare shenanigans and douchery. And to answer your question, no, we would have absolutely no problem if you gave away all this stuff for free, then skipped off into the sunset. But you aren't.
