For all of the people out there calling everyone against or giving the patch criticism cry babies/noobs/etc, did you just completely ignore/not read these two posts: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13539&pid=126559#pid126559 http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13539&pid=125471#pid125471 I just think they were well thought out and actually have some valid points and I didn't really see any reaction or rebuttal of any kind to either of them.

Also, you started out earlier completely backing the patch and everything with it, but ive watched you slowly change what you say bit by bit and now you are both loving the patch and agreeing with what people have a problem with what the new patch brought. If the game is too easy for a majority of people, then its too easy, I get that. But if a change makes it too over the top and even the die hard "elite" players comment on these factors, that there needs tweaking, then there is an mutual agreeance that the update does have a few issues and needs some things worked out. Make up your mind switch, you are confusing the heck out of me contradicting yourself XD

yes. the game is all about raising stakes. so that the taste of each can of beans would count as a miracle. you are counting bullets and fill your flask with trembling hands. I already did that -_-; Then again like I said' date=' I have only been playing for a few days. [/quote'] Then play longer, man. After another week or two, you'll adapt t the ever changing lifestyle of the Chernarus Infected Zone. hah no, ill be staying away from Cherno for a while XD, but I damn well hope so because I see all of these long time die hard players going NO NO make it harder/ GIVE US LESS and i'm just like oh FUUUUUUUUUUUU**** that. XD

Huh, that explains why I was picked off by a group of people who were heavily armed my very first attempt at the game when I found myself at the edge of the map just wandering through the woods, I bet you a dollar I was near someone's camp.

I must be the worst player of all time for thinking the last version was challenging then -_-; I mean I have only been playing for a few days and all, but are all of the "play better/get on my level/ stop being an idiot" 's really necessary? I like to think that I played smart, I went north, avoided major cities, solo ran small towns while gut wrenchingly slow because if i prone walked I got sighted often because of a zed through a wall or around a corner that I didn't know about. I had a good enough, for me at least, arsenal of items, they weren't even that decent, but it was enough to keep me happy and actually enjoy the game, I think if the LOS is tweaked a bit, I can go back to enjoying it the same way, and I wont even mind the new spawn items, but as it is now, its just disheartening.

1. Well that's what I am going to try to do, hopefully I can do this successfully after a few dozen deaths XD 2. I don't even like/play COD >_<

I only just started playing this mod, so about 2 days under 1.7.0, and now im even hesitant to even start playing on the servers that now support 1.7.1 These are the problems that I see arise from this update and well, might have been the point of it in the first place; All of the changes to the zeds making them tougher and the ability to spot you makes it sound as if looting a town is going to be damn near impossible, I had enough problems trying to loot a town by myself without alerting one zed in the process while being as damn careful and sneaky as I can, a recent incident ending with 30 bodies in a pile in a shed, me out of ammo, and running away with still a town of zeds chasing me before I finally got away. Now, you may say, oh well that forces teamwork and to work together to survive, yes, but if you can't even find people because of the removal of the side chat, that makes it near impossible on a map this huge if you don't know the people irl and have a way of knowing where they are. Which is probably the point. Another thing I thought of is that without having any weapons to start with, it really doesn't matter how many people you have with you, you are still going to be screwed in the end. Which, all and all, ends up sounding like the point in the end anyways, and are interesting ideas, I just believe it adds more frustration than a feeling of success from being able to survive, who knows, maybe I'll learn to not somehow die 20 times in 5 minutes when I start playing on this new update, I do hope so, I was really excited about playing this game for myself.
