The Killing Joke

Please explain to me where I am wrong. I quoted you - verbatim - above' date=' saying that it's going to become a deathmatch because you're going to make it a deathmatch. Please explain where [i']I failed to understand rather than you failed to make your point clearly.

Certainly! He emptied one round into him and the second round nearly into him. Meaning, he missed with his second shot. :D

Maybe it's time to post an end to the thread, and close it up. It's obvious past posts are being lost in the shuffle.

For the menu options that do remain (for example, picking up gear from the dead) you can use [ and ] to run through them, as you would with the mouse wheel. Mine also never worked as expected, and I had to use these key binds.

No, please Nya. Allow me. Hey daedrick... LOLUMAD? :P

That. That was hilarious. (And it gives me an idea what to do next time we're in a zed foot race!)

That feeling you get just knowing this guy ^^ didn't see the zed that snuck up from behind and munched his ass for doing that good deed. :D

So, wait a second... You say: ...and THEN' date=' you say: So, it's YOUR FAULT. Thank you for making the perfect point. It's people like YOU - not those wearing the Bandit Skin - who are at fault for the game devolving. Congrats.

"Some men just want to watch the world burn." Such is the price we pay. You can't say 'something needs to be done' when it comes down to permitted gameplay mechanics. In the end, you got a good story, and a learning experience, so I'll tell you that you came out on top. TK "I fight for the User!" J

It was a good night. I was totally in the "If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed" mood. ;) TK "I fight for the User!" J

Just last night, in-game as Jayne Cobb (the character I play) I was in some larger industrial section, and down to two bullets in my last Makarov clip atop a large building. I had scavenged some supplies, including my first ever smoke grenade, and night was falling. I heard some commotion a couple of floors below, and noticed that some new zeds had spawned. Scratch that, a LOT of zeds had spawned. I could hear a few in the building, and crossing the rooftop, I looked around the area and counted no less than twenty zeds around. Figuring I wouldn't have enough rounds to escape successfully, I tested my aim from the rooftop, and was happy that the two shots I put in the zed nearest kept it down. I had been using chat to keep in touch with some people, and made them aware of my predicament. All the while, I was dropping flares off the rooftop in an effort to get someone's attention. A character named 'user' (original, eh?) offered to traverse the expanse and give me some ammo, so I launched my smoke and watched as he proned his way to my position. When he got to the roof he advised me that he was armed, and that there wasn't to be any funny business. I said, "you do hear this, right?" as the telltale 'click, click, click' of my empty gun sounded off. He gave me a clip, and as we garnered a quick truce, a new zed shambled it's way onto the rooftops with us. We put it down, and I told him there wasn't much luck in us escaping, since I was - again - low on ammo. I thanked him for the help, and told him I'd run cover for him. I ran down and out of the building, pulling as many zeds with me as I could. I shot my pistol in the air outside, and briefly saw 'user' escaping before I blacked out... He kept talking in chat, thanking me for helping him out, and I got ready to log as he added me on Steam. And all the while, I was wearing a dirty, beat-up bandit skin. So, to all of you who say "this is going to devolve into a deathmatch", I say to you: UP YOUR GAME. If that's the only solution you see, then I say you are part of the problem. Trust a little. Not all of us are going to shoot you in the back all of the time. TK "I fight for the User!" J

Thank you, Synchronicity. I am also fighting for those who are asking for (get this) a 'new' skin for uber-wonderful players. I think that is a TERRIBLE IDEA as well. Why? For the exact same reason. They are asking for something like a 'Sheriff' skin to single them out when they do wonderful things, like transfusions, or bandaging - what have you. It's an arbitrary assignment for perceived in-game atrocities or heroic efforts. It's a giant target painted on your back, saying, "Hey look at me! SHOOT ME!" Don't get me wrong, I think if you want to wear that skin (Sheriff, Bandit, - hell, dress as Beelzebub if you want) that you should CHOOSE to wear it. Then, you have nobody but yourself to blame when people shoot first, and ask questions later. TK "I fight for the User" J

Education, eh? How's that working for you? Puh-lease. I see your quasi-Nazi Kirk' date=' and raise you badass Kirk. TKJ

No. Sorry. Your idea is bad, and you should feel bad. /Zoidberg TKJ

Well said!!! /IRONY And 78.34% of all statistics on the internet are made up. (You do, of course, get bonus points for your awesome use of grammar.) TKJ
