Surely you haven't seen last page's discussion... it's like people think they are always right and don't like any opnions contrary to theirs.

Way to tell if someone is a bandit
Ingway replied to lukeido (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I use voice comms, tried to reason with some poeple trough it, asking if they are friendly, usually the ones that don't respond at all even if you say their location are hostile, tried this with loads of people. Altough most of the people i found that also use voice comms tend to be friendly, i found at least 5 friendlys like this and helped each other out quite well. Still, that just my method it still is a big gamble, but there no perfect method for finding friendlys. -

FFS sake guys, people are entitled to their opnions and toughts, let then speak out, you don't need to act all pissy and rage angry just because you don't agree with it. Yes, the patch changed some things that not everyone likes, nothing can please everyone, NOTHING, so just sit back and let tread pass if you don't agree, but have nothing too add to it except pointess arguing.

In a way that makes the game more realistic for some people, i like playing in a realistic style sometimes, but, there should be a way to activate such a thing, much like you can disable aim dots, third person and such, there should be an option like this for non hardcore players.

i always use voice comm, if i happen to spot someone, if the person donsn't respond to me trough chat or trough voice, i usually consider him a treat, and watch he's doing. It makes me really paranoid but sometimes i find some nice chaps who are willing to join forces.

I just committed suicide for a box of matches and a flashlight

True, the moon should be able to provide enough light for you to watch what's ahead of you, also the stars, unless the sky is full of clouds, it makes no sense for nightime to be completely dark. -

Ingway replied to Kashus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You're kidding right? I found like 5 of then while exploring the city, along with loads of wood. -
Too me, there should be different play styles wich you choose at the beggining, you are prompted to choose between a Civilian and bandit, bandits get to kill without penalities but are easily distinguished from civilians, and civilians would be for peaceful players who like to cooperate, if you try to kill someone with this choise, you face death as well... Maybe it's not that much realistic (not like heartbeat or bandits skins are actually realistic anyways... there's some pretty coldblooded people out there who wouldn't feel anything for killing someone), but to me it's an alternative.

Well, if you can't see and have NO source of light, move to a server wich is still has daylight, and then find some stuff to light your way in your main server. -
I found, and alice pack, and winchester, LOTS of m1911 ammo, lots of medical supplies, binoculars, watches, a map, hunting knife, matches, wood, hatchet, freaking everything, except food... Luckily zombies DO drop food on rare ocasions, if it wasn't for that i would have died quite easily, the most sensible thing to do right now is find some animals to hunt and make a fireplace.

Remenber the following, inside or very near buldings, your sound and sight indicators don't raise much, if not at all, so don't mind going crouched inside a building. As for crouching outside, do it in the grass, and when you have to cross the road crawl, try to keep your distance from zombies if you plan on going crouched, if you have to get somewhere wich has a zombie very close by, you'll have to crawl. Also a little helpful hint, try to scavange around twilight and sunrise, there's still plenty of light BUT, the zombies will act like it's night time, so, you can go around crouched, even in the middle of the road, and it will be like your crawling around, really useful.

A zombie appocalipse would cause alot of fighting but i hardly imagine it would cause buildings to be greatly damged, if it was some kind of all out war like normal then it would be acceptable. Also, i'm pretty sure we are playing not long after everything went down the shitter, so to expect the buildings to be in bad shape due to time wouldn't work as well, i say it's fine just the way it is.

I play DayZ and I'm an asshole. DEAL WITH IT!
Ingway replied to Freek314's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I wonder if the GMs responsible for keeping the forum clean are finding this too funny too close, or they feel like the forum lacked another pointless tread -q -
The chance to get bleed out of an attack was always high, but differently from before, you can lose the zombies if you get inside a building they will lose track of you if you keep quiet, or exit trough another door. The only deal right now is food spawn rate, it's pretty rare to find food even with grocery stores around ( Lots of weapons and ammo tough). But it's getting fixed. Also, try to ally early on with someone else that is unarmed, better chance that he won't turn on you if both of you don't have a gun, just be careful with the ones that do have guns.

I've never seen anyone rage this hard before. -
So i'm curious about something, since the hotfix for patch 1.7.1 it semms like food has become quite rare to find, or at least on every single server i got in. I was walking around Electro, found me 2 companions and we started scavenging, not a single bulding had any kind of food, not even the grocery store, and no drinks or empty caantens. Wich left me wondering, did the latest hotfix mess anything up with the food spawn rate? Also on another completely different matter i'd like to talk about bandits and a possible solution to then and see what you guys think. I personally feel like, the person should probably get to choose at the beggining what they want to be: Bandit or civilian. But there's a thing, if you choose to be a bandit your skin changes so you can be recognized as one of then, and you are allowed to kill others without any kind of penality. The other one would be the civilian, normal skin, but if you try to kill someone else that is also a civilian, your character will be automatically killed, or some other kind of really harsh penality, so the person would think twice before doing something like that. It won't stop people from creating a civilian just to trick and troll everyone, but i feel it's a better solution than humanity bar, wich affects you even if you kill in self defense.
