Is there something wrong with direct chat via type, not a mic? As it seems everyone I talk with via DC is unresponsive and stares at me. I've been trying to communicate with several frsh spawns, and people within cities to have no answer. I may understand 1 unresponsive person, but all these people cannot be unresponsive. Do I have to set up my mic? I'd prefer simply using chat, but either everyone is ignoring me, or something is up with my chat. :/

So, increasing your gamma and brightness so you can see at night, is this an exploit? I believe it is, as night is pitch black, if you walk outside, with no light, it is going to be pitch black (Depending on the moon, which this game factors in). I for one have left my gamma and brightness at it's default setting, to get a more authentic night-time feel. Perhaps this puts me at a disadvantage, but I'd much rather have a true night. Discuss.

I definantly support this idea, and will look forward to fighting off some Reg's in the future. I can already see it's growing quite a bit, and hopefully I'll run into someone with a regulator tag eventually ingame.

I was under the impression that we were immune to said virus.

Wait loot doesn't spawn when you're close to it with a vehicle? What crap is this?

It's cheating. You have an advantage that the average player wouldn't have? It's cheating.

I agree completely, locked servers are crap, and should be blacklisted. They should be given one 72-hour blacklist as a warning. After that it should be permanent.

I'm commenting here because he told me not to...

This is old news. Many weapons were nerfed in beta 1.62, including the revolver and M1911

So... Did you do it?

...I wish I never lost my M14. That gun was great.

Green mountain is said to be cursed. Almost like a Bermuda Triangle type of place. It's also referenced a lot in the Urban Legends thread. That is why he wants to erase it.

1. This is a PVE game, as well as PvP. 2. True 3. Not yet. You don't dodge zombies yet.

Green Mountain.

Nevermind

This would only help people grief even more. And evidence of torture that hurts gameplay would be awful. There should always be a way to be returned to health. And in that case, I wouldn't fear torture at all. It would just be a way for sick people to get their jollies out of this game. Most people wouldn't respond to interrigation in game, as they could just withhold their info and respawn after the torturers kill them and head to camp. It seems you'd be better off with games such us the Fallout series or Elder Scrolls, which evoke emotions in your choices.

No excuses. A server hop is a server hop.

This is why I say on top of adding more zombies, make ammo and weapons scarce. Like extremely scarce. They will think twice before using that precious bullet(or more) to put you down. Is it really worth that bullet to kill an unarmed fresh spawn? I wouldn't say so.

I was thinking about joining and playing dirty cop, but guess that isn't possible now. Haha.

I wouldn't call those games near as taboo as torturing another living player (someone is on the other end of that screen). I understand that this isn't a debate about law, but seeing as Rocket is from New Zealand, he would not allow this game to be outlawed there. There is also no benefit in torture, as said before. People kill players for loot, or to protect themselves. Torture would not have any benefits, and several big cons.

I agree with the fact that zombies are much too easy as they are now. One realistic way to give zombies more power is to increase their numbers, until they become just overwhelmingly numerous. Only issue with this is the strain on the server would be huge. Another solution is to make guns a scarce resource. Make a player celebrate when he finds a makarov, and military loot should be near impossible to obtain. Ammunition should also be scarce, making people think twice before firing at that player or at that zombie. These two combined would make for an extremely difficult zombie survival. If you found another player you would be glad to have someone to help you take on the horde.

This doesn't belong in this section. I've accidently liked a post while trying to report or quote it. So I like the Nevermind option.

Torture and extreme gore would be in extremely bad taste, and would definantly turn away many gamers. It would also illegalize this game in several countries.(Australia, Germany, New Zealand). Besides the fact that torture would not add anything to the game, considering most people wouldn't care if their player was being tortured, and what would be the benefit, besides sick enjoyment?

There are the snipers we all know and love (/sarcasm), people organize large markets for players, people set up a hospital (Place to go for morphine, blood, etc.), I've heard of field medics. There is a group trying to bring law to DayZ. I have seen people use sandbags and barbwire to set up a safezone. The possibilities are near endless. And in my opinion excessive blood and gore can get a bit silly.

Sounds like a nice way to run a clan, only issue is having a chapter go AWOL every now and again. I would reccomend contacting some smaller clans that are less established in the community, and offering them a spot into your organization. And the regulators certainly will make life much more fun for me. I'd love a good fight against some of your men, and can't wait to run into a group of them.
