Yeah too many guns around compared to more common stuff. Playes rather go "Let's loot NWAF for weapons" instead of "Let's loot the industrials for bulding materials." Epoch makes it even worse. "Let's go loot NWAF and sell the stuff to buy a plane/helicopter/tank and hunt others. Finding wood is relativley easy but finding cinder blocks and the mortar...you are better off looting said AF and sell the stuff to buy building materials if you are serious about building a base.

Wouldn't the items despawn after a while if they aren't in the spawn locations? You know...to prevent object spamming...i bet it works in the SA just like in the mod, you leave it there and move along it disappears.

Those would be the carebears...which are a different bunch.

Maybe you live too close to one because it's dark out here on the fields at my place...

I don't know how shooting an unsuspecting player can be classified as an interaction since communication is needed in order to interact. And KoS is similar to griefing in other games like Minecraft if you want a comparison unlike pvp which is part of every game involving groups and limited resources ( flag points, food etc. )

What does torturing other players because you are a nobody IRL have to do with beeing a bandit? :huh:

What do you expect night to be? Some kind of fake hollywood night with night lights flying around so the audience can actually see the characters running around instead of a black movie screen?? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darkness Brightness and gamma 1.0 and my monitor shows true black...i can't imagine people with "grey=black" monitors to have problems with night.

PENIS

So much for the idiot "hunting" for the lulz...got hunted down himself because he couldn't leave others alone. He clearly had NO reason to shoot the new spawn in fact if i was the guy with the rifle and beeing hunted by zeds i would keep running yelling at the other survivor to do the same. I had such an encounter where a buddy and i shot a player who shot another and he came back for seconds...shot me although we had better equipment than him ( Winchester vs. Makarov LOL ) so he shot me and missed, i didn't expect him to be so stupid to come back, i shot back and nailed him behind a toilet where he tried to run away over a street and i hit his leg and rendered him "less mobile". Of course the shooting drew in zeds and me and my buddy ran away...the guy got zombie raped. IRL a lot of people don't want to be alone even if they have to build up trust first they would group up otherwise we would never have built a society. There are exceptions thought...those who run into a mall armed with a rifle or kill people in a sadistic...but those are exceptions unlike what happens in the game. Exactly...nobody of us dislikes pvp if it is for a reason.

You mean KoS* engine... ( meant literally and as kill on sight )

One problem: They can still disguise it as a donation and still "give" the donator a loadout....which is still pay2win imo... Until rocket gets off his ass and stops his no rule/yourstory/do what you want policy there will be no rules for DayZ.

^ This And the fact that if you ever introduced these tools you would have groups manufacture thousands of bullets out of thin air so to speak. The ratio effort : profit is too far from realistic for the game, you just have to look at the current spawn ratios and probabilities in the scripts and of course the endless and quick resupply of those spawn points.

What? There are still day time servers in the SA?? I played the mod on night again yesterday for about 3 hours with dense fog and snowfall, you could barely see 100m when i logged in again to play at a later time for almost an hour :D without nvg

I'd like them to remove the annoying feature that every time you take/put away a weapon all the mags get moved too. This causes a lot of players losing precious mags to be bugged away either in a backpack or other kind of storage and i don't want to be treated as a DAU in the game. Anyone playing the game should be knowing what mags to take for his weapon of choice ( i still encounter players not knowing what ammo to buy when having to choose from a list although the only thing they do is KoS other players all day :rolleyes: )

You clearly don't get the meaning of KoS don't you? KoS happens no matter what distance, you don't even need to be close to the other player or even interact with him, it's enough that you see him on the horizon and that automticaly makes you pull the trigger. "Killing him because i can" is KoS and has no reason. "Killing him because i want something the other player has/might have" is a reason.

The supporter pack is the pvp edition where you get tons of starting gear so you can hunt down fresh spawns.

If it wasn't his intention he would have taken Wasteland and made a SA out of that. Player encounters are part of the game but he didn't mean the only "cultural exchange" to be exchanging bullets.

That's the only thing people complain about and nothing else. I don't mind beeing shot by a player because i drive around in a car he wants but just KoSing fresh spawns or confusing DayZ with a giant deathmatch with zombies as decoration is just not an intended part of the game.

Same with the RP server i played on years before DayZ...players going on a killing spree couldn't understand why spree killing was forbidden...the spree itself wasn't the problem if it happened one a day but it happened every 5 minutes once a respawned guy got a hold of a weapon..and it was always a certain group of players.

Currently it's just 99% KoS and 1% no KoS. The server i play on has just about the right balance, some days players are nice to eachother the other day they aren't. I currently have -500 humanity ( it regenerated a bit already from zed kills ) left from a few days ago where i shot two other players who shot one of the guys from another group on the server i play on to help him get his gear back so i'm not completely against pvp it just has to have a reason like i did. Another day a few players grouped up and killed a hero to get his armored HMMWV and forgot to get his key :lol: . I could also gun down every guy i see in the field if i wanted to... If zeds could actually overwhelm you and deal repeated damage and keep you from moving ( f.e. like in the movies where a person gets overwhelmed by a mob and thrown to the ground but this doesn't happen too often in the game ) people would take zeds seriously.

KoS wasn't a problem until the CoD/BF kiddies came and confused it with their game ( admins modifying the mission to a fragfest with tons of loot or even tons of starting gear ). The game is supposed to be about survival and i'm not talking about the typical round based or respawn after 20 seconds type of survival but survival focused on finding the means to survive the next day by not starving, dehydrating, getting heatstrokes or freezing to death. And exactly those kids whine about dark nights...i just played night for over 4 hours with decreasing moon and it even became overcast in the last half, nobody had NVGs and it was FUN!!

Please complain to rocket directly...

This should happen to everyone who server hops every other minute...

Getting help through spawned in items is the last thing "normal" players want to have...

Why even play a game that is just a bit difficult in the first place?
