You're not forced to. You choose to. Maybe if people started using Direct comms around hot loot spots instead of blindly rushing into places.

thread worthy

the side chat thing is a result of the beta patch (required for the 1.7.1 update). as far as i can tell, this is an intended result and will not be changed. as for the direct chat thing, are you positive people CANNOT hear you? or they are just not responding? (possibly because they speak a different language or are unsure of how to switch to direct, or they just dislike you) side chat is controlled by the server admins. alot of them have it turned off.

do you guys play on a high pop server?

THEY ALWAYS RUSSIAN TO GET MY BEANS AND WEAPONS

yes 5 chARS

im angry. better make another thread. Here is an idea though. switch servers and/or revert to previous build.

You sound butthurt that you suck at the game. how would you define sucking? I've been having a blast surviving with other survivors, killing bandits, raiding stary or NW airfield. In the end everyone sucks and gets killed. Only wow carebears (maybe you) care about what gear you're wearing and how pretty you look in your tents. Then you rage the forums when a makarov Commando puts two in your temple and steals your NVGs.

oh man we got ourselves a bunch of people who've beaten the game already! I guess the game is easy mode when all you do is server hop or stay out in the woods near the central cities where player populations are lower and DCing if you see a player. Dont worry you pro gamers being that its alpha im sure next patch he ll arm the zombies with ak47s just for you.

chop tree down. loot tree like you would an animal. harvest wood + apples

-1. You want a gun. go find one.

Stop trying to WoW the game up. Sounds like you want to give Dayz a random PvP group / raid instance group querer. LOL Strangers is part of the fear and mystique of the game. That is how you're trying to destroy it. By robbing that feature from the game. You should be feeling wary and cautious when meeting people in the game. Not have an instant group formed for you. seriously people man up and use direct comms. Announce your presence before entering high loot areas. Stop being cowards and lazy loot whores trying to take easy ways out. Seriously, I've met and grouped with more random people than i have had shoot me in the face first. As long as you play cautious, dont startle people, and are walking around cherno/electro carrying a high tier weapon you wont get shot in the face.

smaller targets that zig zag. Great.

maybe people should start using direct comms when they're next to a hotspot loot area in electro/cherno. You know, instead of HERP DERPING through the entrance and startling whoever might be inside.

Yea' date=' not everyone shot on sight prior to Bandit removal. I even pointed my m4 cco SD at some guy at stary sobor prior to bandit removal and he didn't kill me. Now 90% of players kill on sight due to bitterness and community corruption. When I say community corruption I mean too many of us have been shot on sight, so now we shoot on sight out of fear and bitterness. [/quote'] yeah must be 90%. considering that the past 10 people i've ran into 9/10 of them have not shot me on sight. because people are using Direct Comm and people not carrying weapons at the start.

stop trying to ruin the game carebear. NOT EVERYONE SHOOTS ON SIGHT. NOT EVERYONES A BANDIT. so tired of seeing people say oh "90% of people shoot on sight". No they dont. Tons of times i have not been shot on sight. honestly if i had to guess i would say its 50/50 as it should be.

OP is retarded. He'll prolly get killed going near electro/Cherno in his attempt to grief lowbies. Or hell DC like a boss.

after you upload the patch get some sleep!

game doesn't need dumb mechanics like "food poisoning". most canned goods can last 10 years.

some of the best times in this game is trying to survive cherno/electro and coming out of them with a decent gun and supplies to head North. not to long ago i was making my way to Cherno when i found a grenade inside a dock warehouse in kamenka. When i got to Cherno i saw a ghillie suited guy run into the church carrying an AKM and being chased by zeds. i go to the door way and asked in DC if he was friendly and then i talked and asked. No reply. So i assumed this meant he was hostile. Being only armed with the hand grenade i made the decision that he must be a bandit. I then proceeded to unpin the grenade and tossed it into the church. Apparently he wasnt directly near the grenade but he was close enough to where it knocked him unconcious, bleeding, and broken. I got to watch him die and then loot his corpse.

Absolutely not. You die thats it buddy. All your stuff is forfeit. If you want to keep stuff put it in a tent or vehicle. This is not your typical game for loot hores

just dont be one of "those peope" who rage quit after spending days getting gear only to be capped by a scrub using a marakov because they became complacent and stopped respecting peoples ability to search and destroy or zeds abilities to disable and kill.
