At least make a player's name permanent, right? I mean, that would help a lot.

Here's a tid-bit. If you double-tap CAPS-LOCK, you can turn it on permanently. You can then turn it off by double clicking again. I found this to be helpful when I'm talking to an unfriendly and got to keep on the go. Hope that helps you friend!

Why don't you reread pillz post, then re-post here. This time, read it more thoroughly. And I never said anywhere that it was going to be added. Oh man, here, let me break it down for you: Pillz said, and I quote " B. You are still looking for a way to identify players and I'm gonna tell you once again, thats not gonna happen, this is not that kind of game that helps players play". So please. MYOB, if you do not know that facts. So when he's done with that ointment, I'm sure there will be plenty left over. Ask him nicely. He seems like a hot head.

Unfortunately, No.1 was entirely your own fault. I'm not being a jerk, don't get me wrong. But the mistakes you made are obvious. The fact that you didn't have your weapon drawn the whole time while in Electro put you in a tight spot; unable to defend yourself, especially in a confined space. I'm sure you know, you have got to double-tap W to run. And you didn't hear the guy while in the building? I've learned from past mistakes that retreating is fundamental. You have to be aware of your surroundings. Instead of running down three flights of stairs, perhaps running to another room to arm yourself would have been better. All I'm saying is, when I die, I look back and realize I did something wrong, perhaps I panicked, and basically gave the guy a free kill. No.2 just sucks. I hate the fact that you can be knocked out with one lone punch. So lame. No.3 sucks too, man. That stupid little white dot is hard to pin!

Haha! I think you need to tell yourself what race you are, or are not. P.S. http://forums.dayzga...stem/?hl=memory BOOM! Want some ointment for that burn?

I love you Gandalf!

I have to disagree with the first part of your statement, friend. The game is what you want it to be. But the limitations set before us blockade the road ahead, so to speak. searching for the killer is some of the best fun I've had in the mod. Adds an other element to the game. Without it, then what? I'll have to become one of those morons out there with the mindset,"Shoot first, ask questions later"? Nope! Never!

It's really hard to read your posts, man. Can you type any better? Firstly, I wasn't raging, especially not about bandits. Secondly, I never said the game sucks. I love the game. I said it sucks that we can't tell who killed us, jeeze. And with that, a huge aspect of the game is missing. If you can't add something constructive, please stay out of the conversation. And resorting to name calling, that's so 9th grade. Man, where do you come from? English 101, learn the basics, home-boy!

Another good reason for knowing who killed who: How are we ever going to know who the best and most feared bandits are? The ones we must stay away from. The ones he write about on the forums. Or the best and most liked heroes? If there is no way of identifying players, there is no way of knowing. And a huge part of the game is missing.

I usually bypass them. They run like someone's drunk grandmother. They can be avoided, easily. Just run pass them. Never stop to fight them. I found myself stopping to fisticuff the bastards at first, then realized they were slow and easily avoidable. But if you do have to fight one, go into first person mode, if you don't play in it all ready, circle round them and aim for the head.

Sure, that's fine, but being able to constantly change your name doesn't help. I can't begin to tell you how much fun I had in the past searching for those who killed me. Stalking them, killing them, and rejoicing. Not possible any more. And to me, yeah, that does suck!

Woe guy dude, like OMG, chill! (Lame) You're complaining about me complaining, what's worse? And I wasn't complaining about getting shot, that's half the fun of the game. What I am complaining about is the fact that going after the people who killed you isn't possible, and that's the other half of the fun. So read thoroughly before rage post.... Next!

It has all ready been stated, that there will be no name plates, or any other way of identify players, which is total bull-shit! If players can't get revenge on bandits, a huge part of the game will be missing. SUCKS! So much fun hunting KOSing jerks. This game is catered to bandits. Please don't fall into the trap of being a KOSer, because that's where the game is headed. Be a smart survivor, not a shaky trigger fingered Bambie.

I shot this guy last night, a very unfriendly man. I always call out before I go into kill mode. He didn't answer. But that's another story. So I shot this guy with the magnum, I unloaded it on him actually, and he finally went down. Was it lagging animation, or does it really tale 6 bullets to kill a person with the magnum? If some awesome player could tell me the amount of shots per weapon, even melee, I would be forever in their dept. Oh, I know head shots are usually one. Not sure if they are wearing a helmet, though. P.S. The reason I ask, because he had a friend behind him. I didn't reload in time. If I would have known it was one shot, I would have been prepared. My own fault, I suppose, for not seeing him.

I know the title may be confusing, but let me explain... This is a call out to all those survivors out there in Zombie world. If you are shot, or sniped, or axed, or anything like that, from an other player of course, please, please, please, let it be known in chat. Please shout out that there is a sniper on the roof, or a crazed man with an ax hiding in a building, or a pistol toting psychopathy running around what ever hellish town you were unfortunate enough to have died in. A short description of time and location would be awesome! Some people, like myself, love to hunt down these big bad bandits, these, Bambie thrashers, if you will. I'm sure some of you all ready do this, kudos to you, but I have never ever see this in chat. And I think that is unfortunate. And it's time for this nonsense to stop! Thank you!

I agree about Anime, but you have to understand my friend, this is the one and only Zor Prime from Robotech! If you know, you get it. Okay, now that that's done. The people who are shot will be the ones who type and tell. A quick message while in death screen, or if they spot a hidden foe. That's what I mean. I apologize if I was unclear.

Yeah man. I think it would be awesome if as I was looting and a message came up saying that there is a sniper on the roof if the fire station. Stop, drop and flank! It's fun for everyone. And helpful. And again, the message range is pretty good, and should be read by all with in the area.

I'm confused. How does this relate to the current topic? Not being a jerk, Sir. I am only asking because I don't get the replay?

It has a decent range, guys. And there is always someone around. Believe me, it's better to say something, than to say nothing.

Oh, i mean direct communication. Side chat is blue in MOD. Anyone in the area will see it.

Hail fellow survivor! Man, I feel your pain. And this has happened to me numerous times. Until one day, I has an epiphany! POOF! Just like that. It's not the bad old bandit's fault you/I die. I'm being serious. What I realized was that every time I died I had made some sort of mistake. I used to be like "FN bandit'! Stupid, nervous, twitchy Bambie"! But no. That is incorrect. What I started to do was to write down what I did wrong when an other player killed me. Here is an example of my list. 1. Running down the main road. 2. Letting my guard down after an other player tells me they are friendly. 3. Not watching my 6 while running, or hiding. 4. Not flanking a town/city and inspecting it before entering. 5. panicking while in a gun fight and forgetting to reload?! These are the most recent, after realizing my folly. I write down my mistakes now, study them, commit them to memory. I can honestly say, I die a lot less, and have actually got the upper hand on a few players, who I tell to drop it or die. Funny how often people dont listen. What I'm saying is, next time you die, see if you did something wrong. If not, that was a fair death. But be honest with yourself, was it your fault? Did you run through the main street while in electro?

Download the map. It has the Russian and English names on it. You'll be able to find your new spawn location easily, since you'll pass a sign sooner or later. P.S. If you spawn near the shore, and keep the shore to your left as you run, you're going westward. If you keep it to the right, you're going towards the East, and will eventually end up in the northern areas. Hope this helps.

I am curious to know whether zombies, who have been killed, respawn only when the server restarts, or if they have their own sort of respawn timer?

Okay, thanks guys. This really helps, for those times I scope out a location and see no zombies. Kind of stinks, too. They could have been cleared out 2 hours ago, or two minutes ago. Ha!

So I was killed by a sniper last night, who I sneaked up on, hanging out on the fire station. I climbed the ladder, and there he was. If only I had a gun. Anyway, there was absolutely, as far as I know, no way of knowing who it was. Does anyone know how I can see who killed me. I have a KOS list, and would like to be able to add at least one name.
