Sure, but it's still sexy. Sexy enough to inspire filthy gameplay :P

Obviously

You don't have to make it that complicated, at least not yet. Judge the distance, set the range, fire. Works for me. Making note of the range of popular sniping places using the ChenarusZDB map has helped me get a pretty good idea of range. Highly recommended. If I ever fail to kill my target, I plug the distance into the map to see if I was zeroed in correctly.

I think the reason you have a permanent undershirt is because you have the option of being a girl. Awkward dilemma averted.

I'm currently in the process of crafting the perfectly weighted tower of dimes. Must go run more errands to get more change! It just seems silly to me that so many players are going out of their way to do stuff like this. Can't we just have an auto run feature? Is it really that big of a deal? I understand why Rocket doesn't want it, but this is one of those instances where forcing his vision of the game just isn't practical... for anybody. It's not like it's actually stopping people from auto running anyway. It's just about some silly principle. An auto run key should be implemented for the sake of streamlining a really annoying and silly process that we shouldn't be a part of DayZ. I think the fans would appreciate the gesture. I know I would.

What I think is that it isn't a big deal. Girl gamer's always get special attention in games. It's half the reason most of them play. Girl gamer's are a minority and they are going to be treated differently for it, just like any minority.

Steam overlay it?

I personally want an auto run key. It's the reason I'm not playing right now. I can't bring myself to hold w anymore. I'm pretty much done playing Day Z until they implement auto run. My old keyboard had a macro feature, and the one I am using where I am now won't work with the quarter trick. My life involves a lot of multitasking. I literally can't play now. I've managed to create a script for running, but I'm worried it will get me banned. It's silly that they aren't adding an auto run feature in a game which is such an enormous time sink.

I have yet to hear your response to my detailed explanation I wrote just for you.

I'm sorry to say I missed this proposal in the calamity. A sleep timer like this would be great, although it is basically my original idea tweaked a bit. Don't know what about the way he said it made it seem so great. I don't like the hour idea though. That's terrible.

It might be wise to read what you're responding to.

Spawning in the middle of nowhere sounds better.

Did you stop reading after that sentence?

Thank you for taking the time to post that. Greatly appreciated. I considered suggesting a lot out timer that can't be canceled. But I've seen some people on the boards dislike that idea, so I reduced it to 10 seconds. I agree. I think those two suggestions together are the best alternative. Almost get yourself banned? :rolleyes:

Stand down tough guy. I may have made mistakes, but you have been outright outrageous. No offense intended. Hmmm, though now that I look at your picture all of your aggression does start to make sense.

Thank you. Was about to say this myself, but decided against it. I'm so glad someone else noticed this. I lasted as long as I could.

First, thank you for finally posting on topic. I'm going to make this directly to the point. No BS The current system is not actually stopping hoppers from taking items. Players are logging into fresh servers like they always have, and lapping up the loot. Then they travel to a new loot spot, and by the time they get there, their timers are reset and they search for a new fresh server. The current system is an annoyance more than anything. Sure it seems like it's stopping hopping, because it stops YOU from hopping legitimately, but it is not stopping hoppers who are looking for loot. People have commented saying that I must be mad that I can't hop anymore, but I am still hopping no problem. If anything, it has made hopping easier for the more experienced hoppers, because you can't just go down the list and click server after server anymore. You actually have to make sure are joining a fresh server. So the number of hoppers is down, but the number of items that are being jacked by hoppers remains the same. The current combat logging system doesn't always work. I have combat logged successfully several times. I have watched people log out in front of me. Their bodies disappear a little while later leaving behind no loot. Sometimes it actually does work, but sometimes it doesn't. Therefore, since log in timers aren't doing their job, and combat logging only sometimes work, I have suggested an alternative that accomplishes no less than the prior system, but is at the same time less of a frustration for players who actually aren't hopping for items. Also, players have wanted to be able to "sleep" for a long time, so it would be a nifty way to implement that. Is it going to stop the server hopper from running into the woods and waiting a minute to log? No, but logging into the open field of Belota, then having to run in the open to where the items are, is not as safe as logging into one room really quickly, then leaving. Log out timers in game are what I am proposing because players should be locked INTO servers instead of OUT of them. Outside the server a hopper is safe. At least inside the server they can be killed. So there you have it. Agree or disagree, maybe even make me see the error of my ways, but don't do whatever it was you were doing before please.

It may make the act of hopping easier, but it will not make finding loot easier. Loot is being taken at the same rate it always has been by hoppers, because it only takes one hop into a fresh server. Also, this thread wasn't soley about server hopping. It was more about combat logging and addressing it in a way that could simultaneously address server hopping. The current system is not working to stop hoppers swiping loot and occasionally it doesn't stop combat logging. So to say my idea would make things worse doesn't make any sense. It would serve to make hopping more difficult, and dangerous instead of just more annoying. My main point I was trying to make is that I think in game penalty timers are better than out of game penalty timers. Somewhere that got completely forgotten, or completely missed. Oh yeah I remember, it was when I mentioned that I myself am a server hopper and no one could get over it, despite the fact that it would make sense for a server hopper to be well versed on the subject of server hopping.

No, that shouldn't happen, when my intention from the start was suggesting an alternative that in my opinion would work better at stopping server hopping. You made baseless assumptions. You disagreed with the idea, and then went on to make everything all about me and my "reasons" which are completely irrelevant to the topic, as if you have a personal vendetta against server hoppers.

That's why I made this thread to begin with. It isn't stopping people from server hopping. Then I got crucified, mostly by you, for being honest about my own server hopping. Thanks for contributing.

You are retarded. It was made clear from the start that I server hop. What a waste of time this whole thing was.

Jesus Christ dude are you shitting me with this? Just stop. I don't care why you think I do it. I do it. I post about it. Fuck you. Stop with these fucking way off topic why I server hop bullshit posts. I don't fucking care anymore. I'm not responding to bullshit like this anymore. If you post about me, and not the discussion, you're being ignored.

Then this would be a better example of what's been happening: over-complicating everything, which Ghostflux already pointed out. I'm doing it if others are doing it. How does this simple message get missed? You really just wrote a fucking paragraph because I used the word "advantage." Jesus Christ. And it is an advantage in terms of time. I'm sure they will change it eventually.

Still haven't read a word you've said. Thanks for the bumps though.

Beans!
