Hetstaine

Were gonna need a bigger boat.

Whats brown and sticky ?

My point is that this idea punishes players for a certain play style. Totally, punishing a playstyle with a ban result is simply out the window for me. With a brick.

It is a solid idea as someone above said. You have the choice to reveal your perma nick and that choice is totally yours in most situations. Bandits can force your hand to reveal as well... which may make you more cautious as you will not want to be found by them for whatever reason..possibly they are hunting your named char because you nailed a few of them after you gained their trust and then stole their gear. They will know your nick obviously and are now running around forcing everyone to lift their face wrap to find you. Certainly will add to the tension if you have the balls to stay on the same server ;) Dropping your veil will also be something that will instill trust, you are showing them..hey this me. And the opposite if you wish..hey this is me..BLAM! BLAM! :D The building of a legend, a regular joe or a bandit. A lot of this is done by forums anyway..Dr wasteland for example,,everyone knows who he is, but i have met plenty of guys that do not post here and are known on certain servers only. Being bandaged and morphed as you lay bleeding from a zed hit by some random guy. Just before he leaves he drops his veil and you realise ' Al Caponesta ' the most feared killer and thief of the dayz servers has just helped you ! I like it :beans:

Two people in a group, both lined up on target. First person always shoots to miss so the second can drop them without losing karma. What was the answer to that ? Because he needed food he is good to go ?.. easy then. Everyone runs around with no food and water on them killing because the karma will not be affected, they killed because they needed it, or so the game thinks. What happens if i kill someone for food/drink because my hero champion of Chernarus is low on blood, blinking out on food and water..i have been alive twenty five dayz and do not want to risk my char from being kos so i think fuck it..this is survival and i am dying. I pop him then run in to loot and four more guys come running in the distance..his buds. I have to leg it as i do not have time to loot. I manage to take out all four..hey my life was definitely at risk but then bam..i am banned. Why..because i genuinely needed food or drink ? You simply cannot ban to try and stop pvp. Regardless of the humanity system or a karma system..people are still going to want to play how they want. Bandit, hero.. whatever. If one dude fires a gun in Elektro to kill a zed and a whole bunch of survivors are within the required distance ( you mentioned 1000m so lets use it) for the Karma system to only apply to the first guy who shot at the zed does that mean it is open season for everyone in that 1000m circle ? A clan or even a small group could still easily march around the map all day killing whoever they wanted by alternating the guy who shoots first thus only lowering his karma by 20 out of your 100. And then just bandage/blood/morph a mate and regain. There is so many variables to take into account with a system that can end in banning, no matter what you do there will be loopholes..there is no way to effectively 'police' it correctly. Banning is the ultimate wrong way to go about it though. Slightly OT, when i read Sergeys topic about how he is going to make life miserable for players who spawn kill, it really tripped me out. I mean..really ? That sort of mindset to me is just totally whack. Why not just send someone over to grab my gpu out and hit me on the head with it because i did not follow the rules. Absolutely ridiculous. Reminds me of a powertripping OHS guy i was unfortunate enough to know and his insane rule set. Back on topic..being spawn killed can suck, being spawn killed repeatedly can suck, being killed and not looted with an old char sucks even more. KOS in general can suck. Banhammer and rules within a game like this suck a fukton more. A really big fukton :) The humanity system was an ok experiment and i have no idea if it will make it into the alpha or beyond, i liked it because i wanted to achieve my pretty clothes ( yeh i know..gay huh lol ) but i think the bandit clothing being forced is crap. You will not tell a bandit in rl. Gaining the hero suit is a choice, getting the urban turban is forced on you and does not work as intended. I have had to work off my bandit skin twice because of kos types, i dont give a rats really that they tried to pop me but i hated the turban when i had to self defense. Survival, deal with it :) There is going to be assholes in a apoc that might shoot you because they like your mexican sun hat and whether they have 1 or 30 murders ..they are not going away until someone takes them down. Karma is only coming at them out of a barrel.

If he replies in a high pitched voice i think we have our answer.

Meanwhile at nw airfield... DUDE1- dude..dude! wtf..i just found an mgl man..OOOOHHH MAN! DUDE2 - Lol really ? wtf man ..lets get to Elektro! get to da choppa! five minutes later DUDE1 - Ok..i'm just going to offload into the city..

Ramp it up Fraggle..we expect results. Surely there is a few old barrage balloons laying around your neck of the woods ?

cheers peoples :) ..like beanz..?..we fooking lovez the beanz ! :beans:

Missed this one..another Chernarus boss going about his daily business.

Not a terrible idea at all. Belgium is too far for me though.

Many people also try to hack the game of life, life being the best game there is out there (currently..before mods) i see many unhappy people from the current generation.

Suggestions..but no. Like above, no ban. Bandit or good guy/girl, the only penalty is what happens to you in game. Sometimes your just at the wrong end of the gun/hatchet. Live and learn..what comes around goes around..wait up..Karma ;)

loading.

You guys will love it, Its like eating fillet steaks covered in romantic goat juice whilst vaulting in neverending windswept forests with broken legz wrapped in a tablecloth of beauty made by your lovely nan who you beheaded earlier with a rusty hatchet near a heli wreck full of scoped guns and empty cans. Plus there is morphine...MORPHINE MAAAAAN !!!

As always ..nice work and good luck in the future :)

Hi everbody, my name is Hetstaine..and i have not played dayz since Monday night, it's now Friday afternoon. No.. no!! Please, stop throwing mouldy cans of beanz at me..it's not my fault!! Owing to my oldskool internetz which was given to me by Thomas Edison , he created the net just before he started working on the lightbulb but had to wait for pcs to come along so ditched it as a bad idea..check your history people !! Anyway..i can gladly say i will hopefulfuckingly have that all sorted this weekend with a new setup and happily be back in Chernarus getting flogged to death on the coast by some mad friendly axeman. In the meantime i have been roaming the streets throwing loaves of bread at random people to keep my skillz up. GODDAMN I MISS CHERNARUS!!... sob..

I hate elmo..you should have nailed him first and then of course finished with the teabag. Nice work on taking out the ghillie girl anyway :)

I came for the stealh killz..i stayed for the tight pants.

Look forward to the footage :)

Good stuff :D I am surprised the atv made it that far, the dude was hooking along !

Running out of fuel on a dirt road in middle of nowhere, my partner driving, dark as sin on her ati card, not so bad on my nvidia, just thought it was one of those shots that captured the feel of dayz.. Earlier on approaching nw field with plenty of fuel and a lovely sunny day..

..pity she can't shoot straight.. SHHHHHHHHHH! i SAID NOTHING!

Private hives with TS is really the better way to go although since side has come back on a lot of servers chances of team up or non kill are better than without. Elektro and Cherno are still silly deathmatch cities populated on most servers by kos idjits. Hoping standalone brings back a feel of how it was when the game just started blowing up.

Congrats on having your cherry popped. And that eye.
