    Jeeeez.... These devs. *sigh*

    Am i not right though? The vsd makes perfect sense of being a heli weapon, the fal not so much, if anything the fal and the m4 should switch

    Here come the 100 comments about dupers. I like how the first person to reply will say "it's because of dupers" and then 100 other people need to respond and say the same thing. Please read the posts. 

    Yes dupers are an issue, but the dev's also wanted these weapons harder to find to begin with. Like 60 players per server and only a few ARs spawned to begin with. Thd DEVs are aware of duping, and can't fix it. They can wipe the servers and clear the old ARs but then they are gonna lose players if they keep wiping (especially for those that play fair). So what can we do? Oh yea, maybe add more ARs to the servers...dupers dupe because there weren't many ARs to begin with unless you constantly server hop to loot. Not everyone has no life outside of dayz. Not everyone can spend all day playing the right way just to find a simple gun, and honestly for the setting of this game it makes no sense to have them as rare. Yes dupers are part of the problem. We all know. It's no secret. Stop flexing that knowledge because its getting old. It was an issue before duping and duping is a virus caused by the lack of guns to begin with

    Now see, this isnt at all true, duping existed before the spawn rate got dropped, back when you couldnt go into balota airfield without tripping over ARs, dupers didnt dupe because there was a shortage they duped because their greedy, now why bohemia lowered the spawn rates knowing about duping, is beyond me, but as someone familiar with coding, on a game like this they CAN fix duping and SHOULDVE already

    Let's all take your advice and stop writing bug reports and complaining about the issues on the game so that it never gets anywhere. Sounds great you sound like a logical well-rounded moron

    Yeah? How much change has been made from the complaining? Weve complained about alot and what did we get, and update that highlights that they acknowledged the 50 still remaining bugs, and instead added more guns that well never see because THEIR DUPED OUT OF EXISTENCE

    Ok, I agree and disagree. I agree that duping is an issue and I've already said that. I agree that the game doesnt need to make loot too much easier to find and that it already didnt take long to get decent gear. What I dont agree with is duping being the sole reason for issues and I dont agree that we don't need military camps or AR spawn points closer to shore. I'm not asking for a military base on the shore, I'm just saying 1 or 2 site with a few tents that will spawn and AR. 

    I'm not interested in having to kill my self 20 times just to get a spawn point closest to a good route. I actually would prefer luck of the draw on a respawn. What I dont particularly care for is still having to run 15 to 20 minutes inland just to get to the first military camp (which are the only places to find an AR), then loot 1 to 5 tents that have already been ransacked by 59 other players.  My point is that there is no reason not to leave a few extra tens and a few extra guns around. Duping is irrelevant as this has been an issue long before duping was. Yes duping is now an issue, but I'm saying that this has all been a problem since before. so lets stop beating a dead horse

    Well thats not at at all true, before the spawn rate was lowered i couldnt go into a military area without teipping over AR's. Now, duping has been an issue BEFORE they lowered the AR spawn, THEN they lowered the spawn rate

    To start this off, I just want to say a few positives about this game. I love the idea of this game and think that it is unique and its been very fun to play, even though you spent most of your time running long distances with no productivity. The game play and firefights are tense and a bit more immersive (I prefer milsim type games rather than run and gun games like COD or Halo), so this game works well for me. I like sandbox games where you can play however you want, even though people don't understand this and complain a lot. In DAYZ, you have the option to go alone or with friends and just survive and build stuff. You have the option to be a ruthless pirate and ambush and take peoples stuff. You also have the option to be a weirdo and tie people up and torture them if that's your thing. You can kill anyone but you can also make friends.

    With that all being said, I have a busy life outside of my Xbox. I'm a big time gamer, but I also don't have the time to invest in a game all day and night long. I do prefer games of this nature rather than fast paced games like COD, so why can't people like me enjoy this game thoroughly as well. For example, this game is based during modern times after a zombie outbreak. Its setting is in a ex soviet country that has multiple military camps and dead zombie soldiers. There are also roadblocks, police stations, police cars littered all over the map. So, why is it near impossible to find at least an AK and decent gear in a reasonable amount of time. Considering the setting, it is absolutely unreasonable and unrealistic how rare these decent guns are to find. I can understand it is hard to find an M4, as M4s are western weapons. However, me and a buddy ran to every base on the map multiple times over the last 5 days and have yet to find a single AK? 

    The problem with dupers is that they want to enjoy the game in the time they have. They have lives and cant play a game all night just to find a single weapon that they are highly likely to die and lose soon after. Put a few more guns on the map. Put a few more camps and stuff near the coast for those seeking the more tactical gear. Not a 30 min walk in land. Im not asking to make this game easier by any means. What I'm asking is that you not just cater to people with no lives outside of this game. Consider a happy medium for those that want to enjoy the game a few hours here and there.

    I stopped playing this game about 2 months before the full release because it was just a pain with the bugs, lag and wipes. I just happily returned to the game 6 days ago. In 6 days of playing here and there and nonstop looting,  I should have had a decent outfit and at least an AK with enough ammo to sustain a quick firefight to defend myself and now I should be off minding my business and working on building a camp to survice for the long haul. NOPE! instead I've done nothing but run to every corner of the map nonstop to every single military camp and base. I've yet to find a single gun other than a crappy MP5 with 3 whole mags and mosin with little ammo, haven't found a single military backpack and still rolling with a bright red mountain pack. Every single military location and even tried on different servers. 

    They need more loot in more places to accommodate the players like me that still want to enjoy the game on a tight schedule. They only cater to kids with no lives that only play video games and can spend their whole day and night just running around looking for gear and guns. People complain about server hopping but don't realize that some of us have to server hop just to enjoy the game because we don't have the time to invest in running for 60 minutes to MAYBE find a gun on the other side of the map. What your fix to server hopping? Oh yea, locking your character to a server. That makes a ton of sense cause what if I want to meet a buddy on his server to play with him. What if my server is night time and Im not interested to play at night cause they make it too dark and I dont have the time to sit there and find my way around. 

    Moral of the story is add some more loot. Maybe dupers wouldnt have been such an issue from the start.

     

     

     

    Thats just the thing, the spawn rate for AR's is like 33% which isnt actually horrible, but because theyre all being hoarded by dupers the spawn rate is less than 1, if dupers all just stopped duping, people would find AR's the economy would be healthy as intended, but instead they feel the need to be the only people with ARs, as for making it easier to access from the coast spawns i do not want that, people already get geared up pretty decently quick, not to mention you can get a few good guns from civi loot anyways, mosin, shotgun, handguns, not to mention geared fresh spawn campers are already a plague, id like that they dont become more plentiful

    Do NOT get in the olga, i was fully kitted, i got in the olgas driver seat, there was a bang, and my screen went black, and then my character was a fresh spawn, and my buddy told me i fell out of the car dead, just like that i lost everything

    .....and you know this how?

    People just want to talk smack online because that's all they're good at and they want the attention. There's nothing wrong with filing complaints if it's going to help the game overall.

    I could care less about the attention actually, all im saying is if all youre gonna do is complain then dont play, and im good at plenty of things, but thanks anyways for your concern

    Ran into a guy this morning mid map on my way to the airfield, 6 ppl on the server and here we come opposite ways down the train tracks....ran into a house prepairing for the imminent attack and hear him just jog by... Thinking he must of not seen me (and me being the d#ckhead I am) scope in on him with my sks and see him walking backwards looking towards me doing the heart emoji.... Didnt have the heart to lay him down... Think alot of the KOS mentality inland comes from being in party chat and people dont give a chance to switch out... My rule has always been to try and be friendly anywhere but mili bases.... Once i hit the fenceline the bandana goes on n anyone can catch these hands or this LAR

    So now that the LAR is in the game, where does it spawn? I saw on a wiki page that it only spawns on helis, is that true?

    When you hear the growls, use stereo audio and crouch-walk right around them. I've had infected turn to and ignore me completely only an arms-length away.

    I agree the night is more difficult now, but not "worse" in opinion. Seems like BI wants to encourage use of lights or stealth to navigate in the dark. I actually prefer it to re-locate my loot.

    Relocating loot? I legit cannot see my own char, and the game is so glitchy rn, they didnt make growls they just started running and because it was so dark i couldnt see, and i like the encouragement for lights, but now theres gonna be scumbags who just hide in bushes because their virtually invisible and wait for players with lights

    Also one thing, their now encouraging players to camp in the oitch black and kill anyone foolish enough to use a light source because they cant see, so as soon as they turn it on everyone whos just hiding in the dark can see them

    Night SHOULD be horrible in a zombie apocalypse.  I was able to make it to Signal Mountain in the dark.  I was able to follow the high-voltage lines and power poles that led up to it, and I was able to see the silhouette of the tower.  When night is on the horizon, you need to position yourself to be able to navigate using land features.  That, and you CAN see your compass without light.

    Thats just it, i cant see ANYTHING its completely pitch black, i dont normally agree with posts complaining, and i get a world without power would be entirely black at night, but HOLY there is a cut off to the realism, i literally leave servers at night now i can barely even see my own character, i lost a FULLY geared character last might like m4 assault vest buttbag and all because i got horded by zombies that i couldn't even see,  found a head torch and put batteries in it, and it still wouldnt even turn on??? Like what could i even do?

    There is no such thing as a place where no one looks. It all comes down to pure chance. Barrels and buried stashes, on the other hand, can be hidden very easily in high traffic areas. Barrels are also so plentiful you can collect lots of them and have far more storage space than a couple of tents. 

    Lmao, no, trust me without disclosing my base location, theres no reason for anyone to come across mine, and even if someone does, it would have to be the one time someone does pass by it on the right server

    Stashes, barrels, vehicles, and characters need to go. I'm fine with them saving bases tho.

    Bars

    Ad long as they dont take away the m4 that i finally got after a gruelling 2 weeks of gameplay time, because of all the duping i really dont wanna lose it because ill never find another damn m4

    The more I think about it the more I come to agree with locking characters to one server.The argument for not doing it is because you can’t play with friends on other servers but surely if your friends are on another sever then you just start again on the beach on that server.All my friends play on the same server as me anyways as do most others I expect.

     

    See idk about this, i have my base and stashes on a server thats basically always dead but play on high pop

    I can’t believe I’m asking about this, but where are all the wolves? Has anyone encountered any at all since the update? Of course now that I said that I’m sure ill log on and now be eaten by a pack of them, but where the heck are they? 

    Also I was a little unclear from the patch notes in regards to the wolves so maybe this is why I haven’t seen any but did the PN’s say the wolves would now attack only other animals or ignore other animals altogether? I know that it said the zombies would now be able to attack and kill the wolves but I’m just unclear in regards to their interactions with people. 

    Any one?

    Seen plenty of wolves so far
