Once they figure out how to have more of them they will be an issue. I'd love to see player death be a spawn trigger for zombies.

I lost my public character a few times this weekend. With no Z's and low server pop it really wasn't a bad way to play though.

Was fun though, right?

It's just flat-out how I like to play. I don't want to engage someone over open in-game chat in any meaningful conversation, and I don't really give a crap how many bags of rice or fish nets they've found. I don't want them following me around with their orange raincoat and running upstairs to break their legs. I prefer to play with people that know what they are doing, and do what they are going to do.

Looters will be shot on sight.

I would never play under such a ruleset. Whoever thought of that spawn timer idea needs to back off the bath salts.

I die just about every day. Sometimes more than once! :D

I only see one advantage to the public hive in that if your favorite server is down you can play on another. I don't feel it's worth the trade off though. Aside from eliminating server hopping and ghosting, the private hives turn into a community of players, and it becomes more fun to play with or against the same players.

I'll bring a bunch of splints. :D

It's never too late. DayZ hasn't launched yet, it's still in alpha. It can never be too late in alpha as far as I am concerned. I didn't like the first implementation of night time, and I wasn't a big fan of 1pp when I first started. Now I am glad to see the sun setting and 1pp is my favorite. Players will change as time goes on.

So much anger. So much discontent. I hope to soon teach a class, (or perhaps give a demonstration if my luck or tactics fail me) of a relaxation technique I call "Rag-doll Yoga".

I assumed sniper fire. I never heard the shot, just "DOH!", bleeding, my arm is painful, etc. I didn't run that far away though... I will be out there lurking tonight.

I tried sneaking in on the airfield last night and got a broken arm and a few pieces wrecked... I laid low until the server reset around 10 EST. I'll get back to healthy tonight and be back though. ;)

I'd like to go ahead and encourage people to shoot me if you see me sneaking around. I deserve to be shot for several reasons; 1. that I am up to no good, and 2. that I wasn't being sneaky enough. If I get caught, I probably deserve to be shot or robbed. Even when I am a fresh spawn, my first intention is to break into someone's house and help myself to their belongings.

And why are you so angry, son?

My spidey sense tells me that he is not of sufficient age to consume that sort of beverage.

Oh yes... The displacement challenge! I am sometimes challenged to that very contest in my line of work. So far, I've a near perfect record! :lol:

Cheaters are the worst kind of players... That guy was just being a douche.

You guys aren't the type to kill a player and then stand there and cheer about it in little squeaker voices are you? Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen any claim of superiority from them. They let everyone know who they are, where they are at, and what their intentions are. What's to get so upset about?

Oh Really? Really? This is just getting silly. Really? You're taking this way too seriously! You should go put that on your resume and see if it gets you any further than it's going to in this conversation. Damn, the ultimate DayZ comando squad has arrived. I better watch my beans from now on.

Beyond that, when I can spend 30-40 minutes an be ready for war, I am not so shy about engaging in combat / fun. The rest of the game is still there though... I almost did freeze to death Saturday night.

No doubt. It took me 40 minutes to have miltary clothes and a Mosin, LRS, and all the ammo I think possible to hurl downrange at you guys. Now I just have to synch up our time zones to get on when there's action to be had!

It's really odd as it was fine up until last Saturday night.

Try raising your ping filter up. I have the same problem... I could get FOG 1 with about 50-60ms, but FOG2 is 400ms + for me. Major bummer.

I've had this happen. I believe it's your run of the mill slip and fall accident. Fortunately for the owners of those buildings, the Law Offices of Chernarus were decimated by the zombie apocalypse.
