How exactly are kill list and private shards going to stop cheats ? The only things that will help is enforce the PvE only rules.

So the game is not going where he wants it to go. Comforting.

Perhaps but if the creator moves away from his creation before it's done it "puts a very negative spin" on your expectations.

Isn't he leaving ?

Than why is he hauling ass from his own creation ?

Players would only be able to jump between servers on that private shard So yes if there several servers in the shard it will be a loot farm.

Went looking for AKM. Double whamy

Just change divine for in game.

How else would you describe getting a message saying : "I feel like I shouldn't turn my back on him" ? This is straight up tell that he done some bad stuff. If I see that message it won't matter what he said. He can lie, and your system does not. It's based on cold hard facts.

But you will know why those messages are there, it's not like you can get false impression. So it does not matter if the message is vague, you know that it's there because this guy killed a lot. So it might as well be saying this guy killed 20 people, he's a KoSer, shoot. It makes no difference.

@Karmaterror I think you mistake me for someone who actually cares about what others think, or about "immersion" or just about anything. I have two monitors, I can have map open without any type of disadvantage. Rest is not of my concern.

You need to take it into your hands thus not paying attention to surroundings and disarming yourself. There are 8 pieces of it. Thats right 8! Ridiculous for the area this size. And it's not like online map can't do all the thins listed above Also you can stick your immersion. And you can stick your "tools provided" and all your silly "man up punks" cause it's all a dirty lie.

My mantra If you love these people so much, you can mourn for them!

Yes I figured that it's not a ban from the game. And my point still stands. Most people will not want to be banned. At all. So the few "we want uber hardcore" players will be able to do that on private servers. But main game will not have that feature.

I know what you want, and I understand that in game some insights and hints might not be available, I understand that perfectly, but you must understand that "This guy gives me a strange feeling you know he's probably killed people" is still too obvious, because I cannot try to fool you, I cannot deceive you. So your idea gives you an advantage, and puts bandits in disadvantage. Because everyone will straight up know that I am a bandit. Nothing I can do about that. This is simply unfair. And devs already said they don't want any straight up identification of good or bad players.

With two monitor I don't need to alt tab. I can have both the game and the map open. Nor I do I need all the details. If I know the direction I'll make it work.

Isn't the gut feeling black and white ? You get a clear message saying that this guy is a killer. Doesn't get more black and white than this. Well there it is. You either kill those who run up to you and don't take any risk. Or you don't kill them and take the risk. It's up to you. Same as dropping your guard. You shouldn't be told if you can do that by in game message, it's should be your own choice based on your own observation and at your own risk. I kill people who ran up to me, fuck you I don't know you, keep your distance, I don't want to be your friend, I won't give you food or water, I won't bandage you. If you give any reason to think you are a danger to me I will drop you where you stand. Prepared lies don't work, there are too many assumption with those, best lies are improvised. I know I'm a great liar. Yes in real life you might have clues, CLUES not clear message saying he's crazy. Truth is most psychopaths appear to be normal functioning members of society, and very often very good at hiding their true nature. They might seem a bit more cold or distant when you get to know them. But that's mostly it. Which is why any gut feeling system is bad. Because it removes the element of deception.

Good, you want your own PvE servers that are just a name for loot farms, since passwords are allowed, well pay up. If that's what you want you're playing a wrong game.

We already have a gut feeling, it's not in game mechanics, it's in your head and goes like this : Do I know this guys ? No Is he aiming at me ? Yes Am I in a hot zone (airfield, police station) ? Yes Gut feeling identification complete, this guy is clear and present threat. Now if he's good enough to conceal his true intentions, he deservers to get you to drop your guard down, and not having the game betray him. You want to know if he's a killer ? Use your own observation, rather than just having the game lay it out for you. In real life you don't have a clear message pop out in you field of vision saying this guy is going to mug me. You need to judge the situation yourself and he will try to fool you. No easy mode.

That might be the most overused word on this forum. Immersion can give me a wet bj and swallow. Multi monitor master race will not put their lives in danger for some "immersion". And that's on top that I haven't needed the map for direction for a long time.

So what you are suggesting is that majority of the players will be happy with being temporarily banned from the game if they die or if they want to play as killers. I don't see that happening.

See the problem is with all you smart talk is you got it all backwards. They want to implement those solution into the main game, and force those who don't want them into the private hives. This clearly indicates that he wants the game to have the hardcore ban for death or kos option as default. Not as an option.

No it will be other way around. You can create your own servers / hives where you can ban yourselves for whatever you want for however long you want. Same way Whyherro123 will be able to get people to work on farms, fight for factories. Go on epic quests to find an AKM for which you will be paid in corn and potatoes. All your dreams will come true. But at the same time please let us other enjoy the freedom in this game, to play whatever way we want without game punishment for it, and play the game when we so desire, without getting banned for doing legal things in game, or for dying.

Player base would drop like a stone if they would start enforcing stupid rules like that. People don't want to buy a game and that not play it because they died or choose a certain play style.
