It means, when you make a change in the code, what are the effects of that.

If you think this, why are you even here ?

How would GPS satalites be maintained in a post apocalyptic world ?

Did we all miss the part where the guns are actually finite because they dont respawn ?

Yes that may indeed make the scope 4x, but you also have to consider the effects it would have ingame, given the current state of the engine.

Perhaps you could submit a bug report ?

Tedz do you know anything about how networks operate or would it be frivolous to ask you about this topic in relation to DayZ ?

WARNING: THIS GAME IS EARLY ACCESS ALPHA. PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO ACTIVELY SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF THE GAME AND ARE PREPARED TO HANDLE WITH SERIOUS ISSUES AND POSSIBLE INTERRUPTIONS OF GAME FUNCTIONING.

Actually he did mention abuse of 3rd person in the OP. This could be because its in alpha and these abuses were not apparent when coding. As for the thread title, 3rd person helps the game by allowing a person to see more then a 1st person view through a computer screen. It could be considered more immersive. However I think your worries could be solved further down the line when more feedback has been given to the devs, cos afterall its still alpha.

Im sorry you feel that way. I tried to help... Maybe if you try to make a joke, dont make it very very long in a lanuage you dont understand fully.

Oh you get why I do something that I have never done. Cool.

Im sorry but you cannot base your argument off of a TV show. In case you were not aware, TV, movies etc have very little basis in reality and often forgo reality in favour of shock value, ratings and suspense. Edit: You also fail to address the psychological impact of losing your family and loved ones and being forced to live off the land inhabited by zombies. edit: Also, please tell us how you suggest the game determines when you kill someone just for lewt or teh lulz and when you kill someone who is endangering your life ?

Nah, it just means people would be whoring achievments instead of playing the game.

I thought you were talking about abuse of 3pp, which could be addressed with more work.

Zed that was very eloquent. +1

First I would like a source of your "large majority of new players enjoy jumping right into the game". I think you probably just made that up. New players actually do read up before making a purchase, I present myself as an example of this. Of course it does not apply to everyone. Will we also ban shouting "Friendly" in an attempt to lure new players into a false sense of security ? Or having a non-agressive player lead a new player around the map into a a flase sense of security, while his friend sniper lines up a shot ?

I dont cry about it, not sure you can determine my emotional status and physical reactions??? I have never told someone its "theyr vision". I don not know how to make urself some questions.

It appears he is trying to inform the community of a recent discovery of his. Which I think is rather nice of him. Thanks OP. I hope I can use this information to extend my survival. :)

If you are left alive its a risk that you may kill someone else. Basically killing is a pro-active way to prevent killing.

Try google, everyone uses google right ? Anyways, the whole game is a kick in the face to a new player... So whats new ??

I was not aware that you had to go onto forum to get the server rules.

I am glad you like that video guys, its one of the reasons I had to take DayZ more seriously. I would suggest you have a look at some of the steam reviews as a lot of them follow the same tone of humour.

It was quite hard to read to be honest and not very funny for me. Maybe if your writing style and formatting was different, I dunno. So here is my attempt at humour:

Yes you may see KoS or whatever as being an asshole. Im sure there are many who have a dim view of grown men sporting my little pony avatars etc So while everyone is entitled to their opinion, trying to force yours onto someone else could be considered unethical.
