You sir get my beans for killing a white knight

Your post made me think of something. What if that guy(the bandit) was the bambi's friend?

Eh it's a game in my book, though more like Gmod minus the sandbox environment. At the very least it makes a good zombie boxing game lol

Thought I was the only one who realized this.

I always put my axe in my bag for the stealth factor and most people don't expect me to just pull it out from the bag.

You took the shot, missed, and stayed in the same place long enough for him to ghost (hell he probably could of snuck his way there if he wanted too). So what you should of learned: 1. If you miss the first shot, Don't expect to get another free chance 2. Make an escape route for whatever building/area you are occupying 3. Relocate (usually a good spot with a good vantage point over your last location) , and keep on full alert.

Amen to that. Also the fact I think a lot of people are on 24/7 full retard and don't remember that this game is in alpha phase too and is just a skeleton being built upon, or have any comprehension about building a new engine from the ground up or even using another unfamiliar one.

Little combat log story since its going to be use to make my point. Me and my buddy were meeting up in Elektro. I was already there just derping around axing zombies, my buddy apparently gets threatened by this random guy who apparently tried to kill my friend with a .357 and a FN 45, both which didn't fire. My friend lures him too me and I ax him once, didn't kill him but as we were chasing him he combat logs while bleeding which really pissed us off since later on we figured he ghosted because he came back a few minutes later to which i killed him after he got me, he bled out haha. What they need to do is have a 10 second log out timer in general while keeping your character still in order to log you out, and if you log out with a bleeding effect should be forced to spawn in as a bambi again. And then to prevent ghosting have a timer, maybe like 2-5 minutes, if you server hop and try to rejoin the other with no way to get around it.

Doing this though is stupid. Blurry vision means your overall health is going to shit, and once it hits 0 you are dead, not KO'ed, dead. Health can be damaged by everything from punches, sickness, and getting shot, but not bleeding. The recover health you need to have at least 3.5k energy and 3k water. Which is why you should keep eating and drinking everything you pick up. Edit: Forgot to mention it's not a bug either, the bug is going going to video settings to get rid of the blurriness

I can't wait for the double barrel and the sks.

Idk if anyone else has posted this, but aside from the blood and health reserves your character has, there is also a shock meter as well. Once the shock meter gets over 5,000 or so your character gets KO'ed. 3 punches to the face when you are in tip top shape while cause 6,000 shock damage or 2,000 per hit. Now depending on other factors, like if your using a helm and the type, and also the weapons or fists being used adds in more nasty numbers as well.

Oh god no. We don't need some overrated otaku weapon in this game.

I would like to see either a mk 14/39 from the DMR family. They've always been my fav group of marksmen rifles. Besides a .308 who doesn't love a .308

2/10 for making me reply When zombies are not a threat, and surviving at this point is, well lets face it, boring as bloody hell, what else is there to do? Be you bandit, hero, or a lonewolf/neutral, killing other players is the ultimate form of "high" anyone can get from this game. Killing Zed's as of now, isn't the most exciting thing, since they aren't a threat. And for the recording Day-Z is a survival game, it's both PvE/PvP, people are free to make it into a "deathmatch" if they feel pleased. I've been in numerous fire fights, and nothing else in this game has got me as pumped as these shoot-outs.

You are forgetting about the fact they are bring in shotguns finally too. Which I would take a shotgun over an m4, since the Mosin is so much better at taking players out

Hey OP you should of really checked out that wikipedia link on DRM's because huh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:USMC_M14_DMR.JPG

How about no. It would be better to use a log out timer (roughly 5-10seconds) and then if you join a new server then rejoin the old one you have an additional timer for maybe up to a few minutes for trying to server hop

Basically this.

Using camo makes me a bandit by this logic? Never post again.

A lot of these things people are saying they KoS if people wear ( like gas mask and helms)them only make the KoSing more of a problem. And what about those of us who are neither bandits or heros? Me and my normal squad do everything to ensure we survive. If we come across someone we hold them up and question until we can trust them, then barter for anything supply we might need from each other. Or if we feel nice we'll help a few bambi's out. Besides people are saying add more bandit/hero appropriate gear. This is a big no, because what if a hero is a really good scout/sniper and uses bandit gear, since most "bandit" style gear is suited for both roles.

I stopped reading after the first couple of sentences because you were talk about real life and how KoS wouldn't be common irl compared to a VIDEO GAME! top kek

Yeah its be confirmed to come into both the Mod and then SA after the mod

KoSing is why I usually stay in servers below 15 people. Every time I've been in a 30+ I was always KoSed even by people who spawned next to me. And since that's happened a lot to me and my friends that play we bait/KoS people now because of that
