General Zod

I play with a clan of 5+ people, if we don't see how many free slots are there, we must now find a server via trial and error ? Brilliant idea, clearly you have thought out all the problems it might cause, instead of looking at it from your own perspective.

You really must be new here, broken sound has been around for as long as I can remember. And it doesn't look like it will be fixed soon.

Oh, look this is completely original and well thought out post! Actually it's another "I have nothing constructive to say" post, not like we've had a million of those.

Well yesterday I shot a guy in a building while he was rising hands to surrender. I mistook that for reaching for a gun, I did feel bad about that but that was 40/40 berezino pvp server so it was heat of the combat.

Shots are sometimes inaudible.

There has been a lot of suggestions here, some good, some bad, some outright moronic. But what you have all failed to do is to look at the base of the problem. Why is there server hopping. And why is it possible. Answer is simple : Centralized loot. The only reason why people can hop is because they know where to goods are, military bases aside, when I walk into a town I know exactly where to look for weapons and other high value loot. If that was to change, if the loot was being randomly spawned in all building on all floors than server hopping would become inefficient, example : Svetlojarsk 3 piano houses, 1 police station and 2 red brick corner houses, a grand total of 6 buildings in vicinity that are known to spawn weapons, and when I walk into that town, those are looted clean while rest of the town is untouched like a virgin Mary. But if we were to randomize the weapon spawn so that it can spawn in any building, than they would not be able to jump on the server, check said six buildings and jump on another server, no they would have to devote time to looting. Why bother with some harsh restriction that will hit normal players ? Lets just make it impractical to hop servers.

5 vs 1 You will not win.

Well if don't have space for three cans, I'd rather waste some cleaning supplies than leave drinks behind.

But it's doable, and in a world of harsh survival people would do difficult things if it helps survive. No one will say hurr durr I would rather carry 3 cans with me instead of pouring the content into one convenient canteen simply because it will get dirty and I will have to put some effort into cleaning it.

If only we had alcohol tincture than could be used to disinfect items.

Small group of maniacs with no life. Do a poll here asking if players would do that. edit I got great idea. Lets make players post their pictures, and based on their weight and fitness level we determine how long and fast they can run in game. (this is definitely not a jab at obesity in 'murica)

Right I can already see people reading and watching online manuals for hours do do something in game.

Shortly after that shot a third one, but died, before I had a chance to take a screenshot Machete don't text

Yea great for 'muricans, not so great for people who live in country with limited gun access.

It wouldn't be much of a survival if once you get items you keep them no matter what happens. There would be nothing motivating players to fight for survival, why would you ? Find yourself in bad position ? Just die and try again with all your items. Suddenly characters have no value whatsoever. To put it simply, based on what you wrote DayZ is not game for you,

Great, apples with protein.

Kneel before Zod!

True, rags are rags, it doesn't get any more ruined than that.

Yes friendly server, today me and my 4 fully armed companions joined a "friendly" server. There was so much PvP going on in berezino that we barely had time to put bandages on.

Who needs wipes if going pvp in berezino = 5 deaths in less than 24 hrs

Meanwhile in Berezino

It's like the real life end of the world, when it happens you will know.

A good death is its own reward.

You go ahead and land on your back when jumping from 3rd floor, I'll stick to land on feet and roll.

Got all my gear. No wipe. For centuries the wipe zealots have preached our impending doom.
