Ok, lets flick this round... 99% of the time, I don't KoS someone whose isn't carrying a weapon (the 1% is usually fresho's on the coast thinking they can instakill me) and I know a lot of my friends are the same. So to all those that want to play the friendly game, are you "carrying"? I have lost count the amount of times I have had players scream over direct chat, "Oh ffs dickhead, why did you need to KoS" or "Im friendly dickhead, well done". So why the hell did I just kill you in a military barracks picking up an M4 at NWAF? Yes I know you will say to defend yourself but I say BS. If your not armed, you are not as bigger threat and I would definitely not shoot you on sight. You say you want to play differently to everybody else... yet you play LIKE everybody else eg Looting high profile areas like VMC or NWAF. If was running through the forest and came across some dude camping and growing vegetables unarmed, I most certainly would not kill him. My point is, stop doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome, it is the definition of insanity. Mix it up, think outside the box, lose the weapon. If you are around the high profile areas, I will shoot you on sight, I will not feel remorse, I will not care how much you cry friendly or call me a dickhead. In fact if you do any of those things it only makes it sweeter.

You realise this is a game right?.... right? I rape hookers, run them over in my car and then steal their money in GTA, doesn't mean I would ever do that in real life. If you can't distinguish between real life and a game it is time to step away from the keyboard dude. I am glad to hear you recognise that, cause whatever hatred you have against that play style it is what makes DayZ the game it is. There is one common denominator with all people who complain about KoS... they are getting killed often but more importantly and which usually goes ignored, they are getting killed unexpectedly. They don't change their habits or technique but blame the community for their own failings.

Hey mate when you say stealth do you want to see avoiding conflict or hunting it?

Admins would never use them as a from of vengeance, I for one have complete faith in our new overlords.

No! It is ridiculous to dictate how I would, act, feel behave like after killing someone. No negative effects on players for killing, it is the fastest way to kill this game.

Every time a thread like this is posted it just reinforces my play style. I remember my first weeks playing the mod. I spawned on the coast for the first time, eager eyed and excited about my new adventure. Having no idea where I was or what I was doing; ignorance was truly blissful. I skipped down the coast towards some houses I could see to the east. Into the first house I went, "WHOA, sweet! Some food here and a pistol, damn I am goo..." YOU ARE DEAD! Oh shit what the hell was that? Rinse and repeat, time and time again. Sometimes I would see the asshole and sometimes I would not. But I got better, I used the anguish to hone my skills, adapt to this predatory new land and it was truly the most amazing journey. The hunted has become the hunter and no amount of horticulture, camping, base building will ever quench my thirst for your blood.

Well you would be wrong and on multiple levels. 1. None of my team have or would ever duped, we very rarely have the same gun (except sks cause they are so damn plentiful) Same clothing? Well yes, you just can't beat ttsko clothing when you are hunting and it is not hard to find at all. 2. It is extremely rare nowadays for any of us to have the finest weapons let alone our whole team. 3. We often have unplanned clan warfare and once we have murdered them it is very very rare that I would claim that they may have been duping. I don't know maybe some parts of the world are worse than others? I find generally speaking the AU/NZ servers are pretty good when it comes to cheaters and exploiters (wall glitches were a massive problem though).

Ok I have edited this video with an updated fix to not being able to craft splints. Let me know if it fixes your problem or you have any other questions.

Yeah it is super annoying albeit it is probably realistic I suppose? Can't really say I have tried one on IRL

Ammo and weapons quantities have already been dropped remarkably since DayZ was first released, man I remember the good 'ol dayz runing around with 900 rounds, 3 x M4 60 mags and a M4 with all the trimmings, now I haven't even been able to find a M4 for months, except for on the dead body of I guy I killed with a hoe. The one thing I have garnished from frequenting these forums is you lot still aren't satisfied. I think you would be still complaining if that rocks were OP if that was the only thing in the game that could be used as a weapon. DayZ has always been about PvP and always will be, you just need to what to the mod tools are handed out as it won't happen in vanilla.

I don't always vote on KoS poll's but when I do, I vote "for fun". Oh no thats right I do always vote on these polls, like when they pop up every week

I'm not sure if my channel is what you like but check it out anyway. I pretty much just make vids that I like to watch. I used to have pretty shitty upload speeds so would reduce vids to 10-15 mins long and had to cut most of the stealthy parts out but I can make longer ones now.

Nah it hasn't you just have to have your hands in the boxing position.

Lol they had too. You were invincible are traders! hahaha

What about "flicking the bird"?

Not all servers ran it but basically if you came within a 50 mtrs radius (iirc) a timer would count down on your screen and you would have 10 seconds to leave the "dome", if you didn't you died. It destroyed base raiding and was so stupid.

I tell you one thing they bloody better not have those stupid protection domes like they did in epoch!

Yeah treasure this moment. It becomes a little sad once you know the map like the back of your hand

We can only hope. Unfortunately that is exactly what I am saying. I will post a very quick vid when I get home tonight if I get time.

It really is. I think I have some footage, ill take a look and upload if I can find it. Ok 190 mtrs is the draw for ADS/Scope/Range finder and the fire can be completely invisible to the unzoomed eye at a tiny 100mtrs.

Yes 190 mtrs is the draw distance.

Lol I got what he meant... it was tongue firmly in cheek

Thanks man. I really appreciate it. It would have been better if I wasn't shaking so bad due to cold.

I was thinking the devs should do this but not tell us! Guess the cat is out of the bag now though lol
