Poor baby. Don't get shot and don't expect free gear from easy kills. Problem solved.

There will always be gutless, skill-less camping snipers trying their very best to be as edgy as possible and kill un-geared newspawns. Thankfully, they're stupid as well as skill-less. So when I get a scope for a mosin, it'll be a cakewalk to just sit on a server and pick them off as they try to snipe. Remember: If you can see a full five hundred metres of wooded forest from your position, a full five hundred metres of wooded forest can see you.

Maybe you'd be better off spending the time scavenging for all the extra letters you lost?

I'm really sick of KOS scum calling themselves 'bandits'. They are glorifying themselves so far. Deathmatching is not 'banditry'. Anyone who thinks it is, is delusional.

Yes, but a player helping another player doesn't make that player stop playing the game, does it? If you think KOS and deathmatching garbage are all fine and dandy, go and play the mod. Walk up to someone and say 'Hey, I'm friendly.' Have fun respawning. That's if you even make it off the beach. Because it's all just one big, boring deathmatch. It's just a faggoted version of a CoD free-for-all where you don't start with any guns and you have a huge map. Why? Because there was absolutely nothing to mitigate KOS. The people getting constantly KOS'd said 'fuck it' and just started firing back. It degenerated from there. Killing someone is its own reward. Helping someone is not. You're giving up your own supplies, and trusting someone who, more often than not (at least in the mod), is going to kill you the instant they get the chance! It all just leads to a giant clusterfuck deathmatch that is boring as fuck.

Want.

Huh, I searched for 'respawn' not 'suicide'.

There are just way, way too many ways to get stuck in DayZ at present. Glitch through geography, get stuck in between geography, a little script kiddie f----t teleporting you into the ocean, breaking your legs in the middle of nowhere (which doesn't enable the respawn button, BTW), and sometimes, just because you want to. It's an alpha, and we're supposed to be testing things, but what incentive do we have to look for glitches in buildings that allow us to get under the geography if our reward is having a character that is stuck under said geography literally until the next server wipe? Please, treat this game like an alpha. Bugs will happen. Glitches will happen. We shouldn't have to go complaining to some admin or mod system just to respawn our characters when we (intentionally or not!) get stuck inside objects. I know I don't even approach an area if it looks like I'll get stuck in there. I could handle losing my gear. I cannot, however, handle having to wait until the next server wipe to be able to do anything else. Even if it's a command we have to use, like typing '/suicide' into the chat. Or '/respawn'. That would be enough. People will use the respawn option to scum their way to their friends, certainly. But it's an alpha. Depriving everyone who falls victim to this issue, a way out, because some of the playerbase want to be scummy little respawn stabbers, is really detrimental to the entire project at large. Don't search for them glitches, kids, or you'll be stuck in never-never-land until the server gods decide to start over. Hell, even just add the 'respawn' option to the character screen on the main menu with a timer of half an hour between respawns. That would be more than adequate.

I ran past a guy at the northern supermarket in Cherno. I didn't even know I was in cherno at the time. I thought I was near berezino. That's what I get for running around in the dark, eh? I saw him, he saw me, but he didn't SEE ME SEE HIM, so he thought I was oblivious. I jut ran past, because I had a splitting axe and he had a mosin. So I'm running down the hill towards the next apartment block (Towards Cherno, because I still didn't realise where I fucking was), and this pathetic excuse for a gamer runs up behind me while I'm axing an zombie and attemps to beat me to death with a pipe wrench. TIP: Axe > Wrench. So I turned around, hit him a few times, we circled, he hit me a few times. Except he was bleeding like a fountain after the first three hits. So I sort of dragged it out a little to wait for him to bleed some of that precious blood away, and then I murdered him with an axe to the face. My send off to him was 'Don't bring a wrench to an axe fight, fuck face'. I don't feel bad at all. Little fuckface deserved it. I just wished I had a pistol on me at the time. It would have been awesome to pop him in the face.

I like night time. You know what I don't like? NIGHT TIME ALL THE FUCKING TIME. Jesus H Christ. I live in Australia, and every. single. last. fucking. server. I try to play on has a sunrise at THREE AM. By the afternoon, it's COMPLETE DARKNESS. And I don't mean 'oh it's kind of dark', I mean 'Turn gamma and brightness to full and everything is still a fucking silhouette'. It is literally impossible to see anything. I could be three feet away from a zombie and not see them. If I wanted to melee a zombie, I had to stand on a hillside and hope it was outlined against the night sky. And shit only becomes actually visible after midnight. So fuck it. I'll play on 24/7 daylight servers. I don't like it. But hey, I'll actually get to SEE the fucking sun for once. Instead of a perpetually pitch-black darkness that seems to never fucking end. If we actually had servers that were, you know, maybe set to the same time as it is over here in Australia, then maybe I'd have a problem with 24/7 daylight servers. This is an alpha. We're supposed to provide feedback. Well here's the feedback: Night time is fucking garbage. Pitch black fucking nighttime for every single hour of prime gaming time (IE, any hour of the afternoon!) makes the game unplayable. When you are reduced to standing in a building and literally moving to each corner of it with your tab window up just to see if anything is in there, it is NOT fun. But oh, let me turn on my completely inneffective flashlight and beam the light through the walls! If I wanted to stumble around in the dark I'd turn all the lights off and do it in real life.

You're all just farming military areas expecting to find it. Pssssssssst: Some weapons are found in residential areas. Get out of the barracks and look around.

I wanted somewhere to suggest the ability to play russian roulette with the revolver. Just imagine walking into a building to loot it, see a shiny revolver sitting neatly on the table, and a figure steps out of the shadows with an M4 and a gas mask and you hear the words 'I want to play a game'. Wouldn't be particularly hard to impliment. Maybe. Just give the revolver a percentage chance to fire after a 'spin the chamber' option is used. Oh, and an animation for holding it against your head. Imagine the fun that could be had? I'd be a real-life two-face. 'Here's a revolver with three shots. Place it against your head and pull the trigger. One click, and you walk. You can guess the other eventuality.' So, for serious. Please give suggestion subforum.

Hey, you kill me for my beans, or my gun? That's cool. That's DayZ. But if you're gunning down new spawns on the coast, or just killing people 'because it's fun', then you're just a KOS CoD kiddie and should probably go play something else.

Just two quick questions: Is the revolver residential loot? Please tell me it's residential loot and not more stuff to add to the already over-populated military areas. And also, shotguns. Do we have them yet? I've been finding shotgun shells around the place, but I haven't found anything to put said shells into. Someone said there were only three guns. That would be M4, Mosin, and the pistol, and now the .357, right? I'm confus.

Yeah, because finding all my stuff in the north east airfield is 'on the coast'. I went from the coast, between Cherno and Elektro, clear across the map, looting as I went. And this problem is not a problem of 'only having three guns', but rather the fact that military areas spawn too many guns. Once they add more guns, the problem is going to get worse. I found two rifles, and two pistols, as well as probably a hundred rounds of ammunition and I didn't even search the final building. Also, so edgy calling me a twelve year old, try not to cut anybody.
