No, I NEVER go coast. Shit can, and more often than breaths taken, does happen in Chernarus. Because, no. Life has no reset button. Deal with your agony. Think of it as a forced timeout to mull over your mistakes and how to avoid them in future.

Im not gonna go dig it up right now, Judo, but rest assured. This is confirmed. Not high priority of any sort, but is confirmed from Dean.

Honestly, come right over and kneecap me right this minute. While youre at it, take everything i have on me. Truth is, soon as youre gone, my backpack is stashed 300-500 meters away from me. Call it 5-10 minutes and im healed up and good to roll again. Your failure to plan ahead and give a shit about your character and his survival, has nothing to do with bad design. Secondly, if ANY of this happens to you within 1km from a coastline, you deserve every bit of suffering that accompanies it, and that times ten even.

Even if it was corrupt server, accidental wipe, or any such other cause... You REALLY shouldnt get so worked up, especially during an alpha where resets literally COULD happen hourly...

Quotefail on ipad... @Rhodes That is the most inventive and clever way i have heard of getting someone to willingly assume the surrender pose!

Turn to the dark side... Its nice this side of the fence. The cola is always cold, and the tacos are always... Yeah, sorry about the blood on those, but they still taste good!

No need for guesswork. At this point its a damn near statistical guarantee that it happened at or within 500m from open oceans.

There is no such thing. Those rules are not only against the terms of service, but trying to enforce them could get your server shutdown. DayZ is what it is. Maybe over time less bad guys will be around coz of other stuff to do. But a dedicated core of baddies like me... We never stop. This is our life and mission! Kill everything but the roaches! ... You wouldnt believe the dirty jokes those roaches tell me while im hiding in the hills...

But since the patch where items reduce damage from bullets, this is my surest way of locking my prey down to nullify any chance of escape. After which i line in my 2 mosin headshots that it will take to kill said target, even if he is only wearing a beetlewing for headgear. Besides, watching them squirm from 600+ meters = best comedy ever.

BALLISTIC HELMET IN EVERY SLOT! GO!

In concept, a bolo = panga = machete, etc. But the variances are huge. The African machete, or locally called a Panga, is no trifling slice of steel...

99% of BTKs that I have found, was from the miltary station with the little jail by the entrance.

An actual zombie apoc? My trusty Colt 1911 Government Edition, alongside my even trustier, African Bush Machete.

Ruullor: The things i do to to strangers are cold, insensitive, sadistic, and even downright hateful. The things i do to my friends... Oooohhh boy... Theres a reason you become a more alert player after spending time with me ingame...

What's your favorite town or part of the map?

NEAF. Only because the funniest, and best, of my murders happened there. Friend was playing further down south. Warned me that 3 players are on their way in my direction, looking determined. I remembered an orange mountain pack in the ATC. Ran to get it. Ran halfway up sniper hill. Dropped it right in the middle of the little dirt road, so they could see it if they looked. Even repositioned it three times so it would point exactly where a sniper's pack would be pointing. I only BARELY made it back to my nest in time. And there they were. These boys were here for me. Specifically. I mustve had one of em earlier... One went into the jail building very briefly, probably to check if i was in the ever increasingly popular glitch rooms... He also ran to the hangar to check that glitch... Im not that cheap, sonny - i thought to myself. But they had clearly no interest in loot. They were staring down their aights the whole time. Scanning. Seeking. Hunting. From my vantage, the scene couldnt have unfolded any better than how it did. My sights trained very hard on the right cheek of the one furthest away from my decoy, i fired the shot at the exact moment they all turned to face my decoy. The bluepack saw my decoy first. Mountainpack was pretty slowish on the turn, and my target - gasmask - he never got the turn fully executed. The absolute weight of all the lead they pumped into that orange backpack was staggering! Realizing that something is afoot, bluepack started scooting towards sniper hill. Very slow. Very carefully. Eventually he rose from crouch, to what i assumed must be his realization of what is actually goin on. Too late. Bam! In the neck! Last man standing combat logged. This was pre-timer... Thinking very carefully, replaying every second very slowly in my head, frame by frame - i breathed steadily, knowing he didnt know my location. But i also got the VERY distinct feeling that he is ghosting. Logic told me he would try to ghost the backpack. I was wrong. More wrong i have never been. At the same time as me sweeping slowly and unscoped across the airfield, his three M4 bullets rang out. One hit me center mass, right on the vest. The second went flying way left of me, and the third went so far affield, i think the game just deleted it as atmospheric shrapnel. My aim. Slow. My breathing. Steady. My nerves. Shattered. My shot. True. Best day. Ever. -
OMG yes! PLEASE! I will finally be able to grand finale my character into the Unabomber he has always wanted to be!

Is there anything being planned that incentivizes not shooting on sight?

1: i never kill on the coast. The ONLY time that i have spent on coast is for five seconds after spawning, after which my ass disappears for GOOD - rare exceptions when im bored, i go scouting empty (see nr 3).2: the only time i EVER have to regear, is when i am actually and legitimately caught offguard by another player. This has happened exactly three times total. Of those three, only one resulted in complete loss of gear. 3: unless you catch me literally minutes before a server restart, or right as i log out... You will never find all that much gear on me. My pack and all essentials are stashed away in a bush somewhere around 300-500 meters away from where I am. Consider yourself lucky you got one of my three longranged scopes, one pack of ammo, and a canteen or couple colas at best. 4: i absolutely want you to work together, especially if its against me. Like i said to someone else earlier. You want me to believe your morals and laws have value? Come prove it! Better prove it proper too, coz i WILL be back... I really hope that i get you to understand that even TRYING to remove or discourage me in any way or manner, only makes me MORE excited to get it done. I care for my character in a manner that even the most passionate carebear couldnt even BEGIN to understand. Not only do i preach it to anyone who would listen, even by accident, but i live it in every aingle button i press. Every life i take is a very careful and calculated action. You would NEVER see my shot. Neither would your friend. Because i care WAY more than you will ever even begin to care about your own. I will sit behind my scope for two hours, waiting for just ONE of you to slip up, and take my shot. If three hours is what it takes, i have it. Do you? You will not see me. You will not see my shot. You will merely know that the shadows have swallowed any evidence of what you THOUGHT you saw. -
Traditional Japanese Folded steel Katana... Sharpening... I peed myself laughing just now. Im not even kidding. I really did pee myself!

Was actually talking about the carebears...Nice try though. Me and my batshit insane characters are here to stay. FOREVER. I havent enjoyed a game this much since EVE was still a new thing... -
In my home zone, i PASS BY enough food in a single hour to feed every player on the server twice over!

At which point the game will die an excrutiating death of zero players active. If zeds ever get to that point, you have just created just cause for a massive portion of players to demand a refund due to unplayability. I dont like that either. But thats how it is now. The age of FFXI is gone. Forced cooperative play has gone the way of the dinosaur. Except less dignified, at least the dinos went out with a bang. Proper coop play just faded away like a beaten dog's whimper... -
It could be. But that system is sooooooooo far down on the roadmap, we are literally closer to zombie theatre performances, than what we are to that.
-
And to think... If it werent for bad guys like me, your playstyle wouldnt even exist!

Stop taking risks unless you have splint and/or morphine at hand. At least PRETEND that you care about your life instead of just rushing about with double-tap W held down... On that note: shift for actual slowwalk = win.
