    DayZ is a game about theft.

    I rather enjoy the thrill of stalking someone to make an encounter. Ill show up with my weapon out, if they're unarmed or claim to be friendly I'll make the gesture of putting away my weapon to feel them out, judge them by their voice or actions. If they draw on me, or have a partner who takes a shot, I rather enjoy the thrill of pulling it out of the fire. Sure I don't always win, but I'm always getting better. The interactions are worth the risk.

    Don't confuse balking at the justifications for KOS playstyles, or the "This is the only way DayZ is meant to be played" arguments with complaining about bandits/KOS types. I love you losers, without you who else would I have justification to shoot. A hero needs a villain.

    Motorcycle and equipment needs to be added first.

    You're gonna get a bicycle months before another other sort of vehicle. As for equipment, I think some jackets would be cool. Cooler than track suits at least.

    does anyone find the crossbow underpowered

    I'm fine with its power, the reload time is just BRUTAL though. You really have to be going for headshots with it. If only bolts were more plentiful, or craftable, then it'd be better.

    Watch some of Jam Jar's videos like Prize, Surprize, Demize and get a sense of the very many different things creative people do with the game. DayZ is what we make it, seriously try and think outside the box... or just go play CoD. :P

    No.

    DayZ is a game about theft.

    KOSers always trying to justify themselves... if you were really so righteous in your actions you wouldn't feel the need.
  9. Wipes for the sake of wipes? How baseless.

    Chickens?

    They really need to add feathers as lootable from the chicken coups.

    How many ammo do you carry?

    When I have an ammo box, I carry one full stack of every caliber. I roll with a squad, I want to be able to help any of them out if needed. With the remaining 3 slots, I keep an extra stack for my rifle, pistol and shotgun shells. Outside the case I keep a 12gauge speedloader and a backup stack for all 3.

    Light fire to clothes.

    Care to explain that otherwise baseless assertion?
  13. How is this purpose not achieved by the wipes on experimental? I do not see the need on stable, especially if they've fixed duping. This only punishes long term survivors for the sake of the KOS deathmatch crowd.
  14. Darn, i've been holding onto my maxed out stable chars with their tents, bi-pod mosins and full M4's for weeks now. Only playing on experimental until I can safely pitch my tent. All that effort finding two tents was for nought...

    All Tents Wiped?

    How hard are you trying? Though it took me 21 attempts in 3rd Person my 1st Person char had to check over 120 deer shacks.

    Game disconnects after 20 minutes

    Are you playing on Experimental? Yesterday I noticed they restart VERY frequently.

    Experimental Branch: 0.48 Discussion

    I thought it was just my timing... but after playing for 6 hours today... the constant restarting is REALLY annoying.
  18. That is nonsensical, doing so IS testing the persistence. Also, considering how far off the release is, why wouldn't one stash desirables to enjoy in the interim?

    Ambushed by a teleporter

    600+ hours in, only seen one hacker. He killed a clan mate of mine when we had ~6 in town, so we swarmed him and within ~10 seconds of his dying, he was back with the same gear shooting at us again. I killed him again and provided cover for my clan to log to a hacker free server. He came back a third time, and I dropped him again then hid and logged. Of all the kits to hack, why did he keep coming at us with a Blaze?

    DayZ PS4 Discussion

    Dean seems to have said everything I wanted to hear, same roadmap, it will be a different team, no dumbing down. I hope he keeps his word, because EVERYTIME people tell me what they aren't going to compromise on, they're pretty much making up a list on what they think that can compromise and get away with later. I really hope we don't get a bunch of "No that aspect of the game wasn't dumbed down, we planned on it being that way from the start"

    Damn, I don't want to risk either of my stable characters because they both have tents. I was really hoping for persistence on my clan's server today... Guess its back to experimental.
  24. spartacusrex

    Do tents work now?

    So my clan server isn't an official one? How do I know if a server is official?
