Ankhenaten replied to DoshDosh's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion

The Game or Mod had flushed me to the Core of it's sewery alpha Stage, Even if it was actually ARMA who let me down. And Yes this iPad Thing Loves to make capital letters whereever it wants. Verbal diarrhea As pumishment. -

The evolution of altruism might be interesting to some here. https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?rlz=1C1DSGP_enGB488GB488&sourceid=chrome-instant&ie=UTF-8#hl=en&safe=off&rlz=1C1DSGP_enGB488GB488&sclient=psy-ab&q=evolution+of+altruism&oq=evolution+of+altruism&gs_l=hp.3..0l2j0i30l2.10529.16667.0.16954.3.3.0.0.0.0.65.123.2.2.0...0.0...1c.cbWpJK27ZkA&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=d55c834638869cc9&biw=1024&bih=707 -

Chance encounter at 100% is not chance encounter 100% + active search for players and they get killed 100%. -

Firearms Should Not Be The Main Instrumentality Of DayZ
Ankhenaten replied to hoak's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
If a resource is less available it becomes more desirable. While your risk of wasting a bullet increases so does the reward if the target has the required item, After having been shot several times I also realised that cooperation is weak. Shoot first. Simple Game Theory. (not Video Game Theory ;) ) http://en.wikipedia....iki/Game_theory Coop is cool when I can trust. If I am alone, if I am first to shoot, I survive. So I shoot now 100% of the time first. Loot is a secondary advantage. If surrounded by psycho and sociopaths you have to act like one to survive. Sad but true. -

How to deal with 1.7.2 zombies
Ankhenaten replied to Rich (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Exactly, you either run like mad or use the MS crawl simulator 2.0 mode. Both work, but suck. Yesterday I ran like mad, attracting all, from my spawn position into elektro, loose then I easily went around elektro in Crawl simulator mode at night with visual 3. Before you carefully planned your course, now ... I dunno.. i think it sucks .. -

Hehe I knew he is just having a laugh.. probably is bragging I promise I can give these idiots gamers any cr@p, I can think off and I will still succeed. I will have fan boys and everyone will say alpha. And the more I break the game the more they will feel elite. HAHAHAHAHAAAHAHA Even my forum will have broken smiles. I will misspell maintenance ... Game Design Quality control.. YOU ARE FIRED ... :P Please consider above comment as alpha.. ;) -
Start at the same time mode | Scramble Mode | Competitive Mode
Ankhenaten posted a topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Tried to find this suggestion in a thread, no luck. What about a start at the same time mode, where all loot is there and it's more or less a scramble for survival as if a real apocalypse hit. In the moment, it's more like a guy from a wrecked ship arrives at the shore and has to deal with an already established scenario. Survivors without weapons could start at the same point and then it would be carnage or not. Most patient wins or not. First one to hit the weapons might gain an advantage but also would have to deal with more infected. The more patient could let the other ones die. This is not meant as a replacement, just as another possible game scenario. Let's say a competitive mode. Last one surviving wins. It would obviously also involve Death Match elements. Then the upped zombie aggro would make sense. If games would be oo long one could even up the zombie aggro more. But this would obviously make this a game instead of a griever magnet .. :D -
And a PMT system where female players are indistinguishable from zombies.. :)

And bear traps and LOADS of razor wire when you spawn and landmines and 5 snipers.

Server hopping needs to stop or patch it.
Ankhenaten replied to baffula's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Can go the other way, someone spawned before me and got a bullet in the back, after I shot him before. Funnily both bodies where there to loot. It wasn't jdz incident, since I shot the guy from 500 m with my enfield. The player had obviously reconnected. Sadly at the wrong moment.. :D -
so spawn camping ... just get closer to the spawns ..

What do you actually do if you have all necessary gear to survive in the woods? While it is theoretically possible. You can stay in the woods near a lake with a water bottle, a hunting knife, matches and a hatchet. But is it a game? Do you honestly want to stay for hours on a server doing nothing. So I guess you go out and see if you can find some bandits and try to annoy them. Something like make it to that safe zone, or built a fort would be more constructive than just ramping up Z aggro. All it does is to make it slightly more annoying to become a bandit or help others to become bandits. And bear traps without bears is just another invitation to annoy others. Barbed wire that doesn't affect zombies is also just there to grief. What would I do in a survival situation after I collected all necessary gear is to build a safe area. OK, I can build a fenced area with a tent that isn't safe from Zeds. Didn't try a bear trap yet, so I don't know if they help against zeds or if they are just another invitation to grief others in lack of an actual possibility to build a persistent safe area.
