here's a little post about an experiment we tried...to be nice in day z So a few friends and i have been playing Day Z for a month now and we have gone on, what I would call the usual player ark. We started off with a seemingly endless supply of enthusiasm and happiness at this new game, and then we met our first bandit, we were killed without warning or knowledge of our murderer, a one off I told myself, a chance encounter, then it happened again and again and my supply off happiness dwindled until the moment came when I killed my first bandit, the joy the elation, I was not a victim anymore, I was the victor. So the group of people I play with became a band of hardened killers hunting and stalking people setting ambushes and laying traps, we killed without mercy and remorse, it was them or us was the usual justification so what next we thought….the answer came from an unlikely source. The source was a person who had never played Day Z but had heard our conversations about it, his advice was to be nice…. Be nice we scoffed, not a chance, where’s the fun in that we said, But something stuck or resonated with us, we had a plan we would scavenge supplies that newbies would need, go to a point on the coast we could defend and give these supplies to people who need them. At first people were untrusting of a heavily armed player offering a player some beans, so I took my clothes off, t shirt and trousers only, people were more receptive we had our first customer, he was nervous at first but he left with a smile on his face a friendly wave and pockets full of Tactical Bacon, and we felt good, It was strange, no adrenaline no fear just good, we carried on being nice but all the while looking out for bandits we knew were close (judging by the number of stripped players who had been mugged not far from us ) we were waiting with two snipers armed to the teeth on a roof top, But none came our snipers busied themselves by taking out zombies chasing newbies All in all we only had to deal with one player who spawned in and immediately tried to assault a player I was trying to help, I pulled out my concealed 1911, fired a warning shot, he then ran at me, so I put him down with two shots to the chest. No regret no remorse, it was him or me

solidarity brothers !!!!

to be honest i think i'm too far gone, maybe i should re title this as a warning for all newbies, like a health warning on cigarette packets

well sir i do not require your beans, the reason for this is because i have been talking to Orlok to do it in the right way, which is why its like this but because i'm nice and you seem to be reluctant to give beans out i shall provide you with some of mine

DAY Z HAS RUINED GAMES (NOW MODERATOR APPROVED) This is a formal letter of complaint to Dean Hall and the Day Z team, how dare you ruin computer games ! I have been playing games since i was very little and its something i have always enjoyed, i have enjoyed the ups the downs the comedy and the fear (looking at you silent hill) i have played at a high level and i have played for fun……then i played Day Z in fact i bought a new PC just to play Day Z. I played for a couple days, died horribly then got a little group together died horribly again, then one day the moment arrived when i saw my first bandit, he had just killed a bambi and had not seen me, i aimed, i fired, i killed and my heart was racing my legs shaking, i was in a state of pure adrenaline I have been in many firefights now and i still have the same reaction of pure terror when shots ring out from an unknown sniper. The reason for my complaint is that i cannot play other games, they have no meaning now, no feeling, no fear…..and i have no interest, dam you Hall you have made me into a Day Z junkie and i cant get my fix from anywhere else http://dirtymcnastys.tumblr.com/

its a post about a tumblr of mine about day z please tell me where i should post this ? and i am fairly certain that tumblr is not a chain letter or pyramid scheme or a personal message service and yes it maybe a commercial product but so is Day Z and all the weapons mentioned so if you want to be that pedantic then we better shut down the website

as i said in the title i am shamelessly promoting my own tumblr blog about Day z, i have just started and would love to get your feed back here is the link http://dirtymcnastys.tumblr.com/ thank you

tracers might have been put on due to the fact that the gun is silenced, so the conventional method of locating by sound does not work, so you need another method
