Caboose187 (DayZ)

Except in third person :rolleyes:

Welcome to Server HoppingZ. My only advice is if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Ya it's a little ridiculous right now but they are working on item and gear spawns and I feel your pain. It's starting to get really stupid trying to play legit and no matter what server you pick, they all appear empty. Just gonna have to wait until they fix this.

1) double tap W 2) Run to nearest town(zombies can't catch you) 3) Loot everything 4) Repeat from number 1 (Aside from just killing each other this is all the alpha has to offer at the moment)

Oh don't worry. There will be modded servers eventually that will give you full loadouts right off the hop.

Care to state why?

If it works in Rust,which is way way smaller, it can easily work in DayZ. Problem is that characters would have to be tied to those servers and we all no the hoppers would have a conniption fit over that

How more clear can he be when he stated, "go AFK and lie down after you disconnect". Meaning your character stays on the server sleeping until you log back on

Are you actually walking, holding down your shift key, or jogging, not double tapping W?

I guess it all depends on the terrain and footwear. We're not ninja's and some of the buildings echo really loud because they are all concrete.

It's in all their games.... <_<

I don't think you're a looking at the survival at the level it's going to be. Having to rely on other is going to happen and the players who think they can play rambo all day well, I'll just laugh now. Eventually you are going to want those beans that someone is carrying and yes you could shoot them for it at the risk of ruining them or you could actually trade for them while you are hold up in a house while it's pouring rain outside and you have nothing to protect you from the elements as infected hordes are trying to get in. The bigger picture is not even in the game and they way it is at this exact moment is a straight up death match because the infected aren't a threat, starving isn't a threat, fatigue isn't a threat, diseases and sickness isn't a threat, the elements isn't a threat. See where this is going? We've still got a least a year of development ahead of us.

Wow, you really don't get it do you. Fatigue. Causing you to not run full tilt, bringing you to a slow walking pace, almost to unconsciousness. I can almost feel your rage as the player you were chasing slowly fades into the distance as the world goes grey and blurry around you.

So as you are surrounded by infected hordes, you think you'll still have the ammo capacity to go run around and kill people? I think you clearly do not understand what DayZ is all about. Yes, KoS is and still be part of the game but as the game further develops, you're little CoD fun time won't be as easy as you think it will be.

I was thinking of this but not in a sense where you play as an infected but your body just becomes one as an NPC

A proper fatigue system, dangerous animals in the woods, larger zombie hordes, food scarcity and starving to death, weather and elements effects, diseases. I could keep going but those are some of the things that may make their way into the game and sure, you still can kill people, but when you are slowly freezing to death and people recognize you as being a douche, well, you won't be getting any help or sympathy. So in the end, KoS will still be a part of the game but it will be lessened due to players having to actually try to survive in this, ahem, survival game. So you are correct that nothing will ever make you not kill people.

More zombies and a fatigue system are in the works. Players won't be running to the nearest military bases to gather their precious gear when these get implemented.

Modding won’t be supported on release, the game can’t support modding until the core architecture is locked down and hacking/security has been solved to an acceptable level http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1ijj10/weekly_discussion_what_are_your_sa_release/cb542tu?context=3

Sadly, that's what they want.

Console versions wouldn't ruin this game anymore then people wanting full blown military gear and mods to give them all the epic phat lewtz they want.

Enjoy your shitty servers when they happen B)

I don't think it's the maps people are worried about. The hacks the come with the mods, the easy gear that ran rampant in those mods etc. New maps would be great, easy gear, not so great. Is DayZ a survival game or not?

Ya but I understand what he's talking about. Some players, including myself, like playing on full servers but the problem is you can't find anything unless you hop around. Yes yes, it's alpha herp derp but it's just really lame to have to do this unless you happen to join a full server that has just restarted of course. I've travelled around on full servers not seeing a single person going from towns to citties to military bases and guess what, all empty. I personally can't wait for gear respawning

The only mods that should be allowed is new maps. Being able to customize loadouts for players, giving uber gear and items is just bad and is not what DayZ is about. The modded versions of the mod turned what was suppose to be a survival game into a cheap CoD rip-off with zombies. No survival and just straight pvp. If that's what I wanted I wouldn't have bought the SA

It's not your server. You are a renter and it's what the hoster allows you to do. So perhaps go on your hosting forums and ask there. Just to add, it's also what Bohemia allows the hosters to be able to do I believe.

Wait, are we wanting DayZ or another Arma remake?
