1. The targeting system would have nothing to with aiming...its only purpose is to tell main server who fired first and at who. 2. Again it doesn't give advanyage..the purpose is to send info to server 3. If your under fire it means yiuve been targeted...server knows youve been targeted ..thus you can defend yourself freely

Ideally I guess the actions would cancel each other out. Making it a pointless endeavor. As for you're quote...it's splitting hairs. The subtleties of human morality cannot be fully coded into game (yet). It needs to be kept simple.

Right...well a buddy system would take care of the second problem i think. Also maybe some sort of "target player" system.example. Where you have to "in some way" target a player initially before firing. This tells the central server which player ID's are engaged and who is the aggressor. All "buddies" of the targeting player are also allowed to fire (without having to target) and all of the buddys of the targeted player can also engage.

Hmm..well that's lame. They should change that. So it's based on humanity then...that's stupid.

I guess you haven't noticed that killing a player who shot at you first doesnt count as a murder...its a bandit kill. Maybe 'cause you always shoot first?

When shitty little children play in the sandbox......said shitty little children need to be dealt with. Thus affecting ALL the little childrens sandbox playtime. If Rocket wants to move units...he needs to deal with the shitty little children.

Interesting how you say the "GAME BECOMES FUN AGAIN" when you have to start over.

Why are we all so concerned with realism? And are we really? You want real? Go outside and insult someone to their face. Go steal a car. Or loot a house. No-one here has ever experienced an apocalypse or a zombie. So all their reference comes from books movies and television. I've seen people do it...they'll reference a tv show or comic book with regards to what it would really be like. Dummy's. It's a game. It's meant to entertain you. I know I know...it's not meant to be fun it's meant to be harsh and real....right....and that fee I pay for talking to an actual bank teller is a "convenience fee". The whole "anti-game"..."not meant to be fun" shit is a gimmick to make you believe you are doing something you've never done before....but the truth is you are sitting on your ass playing a video game...same as ever. :)

He didn't say he doesn't think games are supposed to be fun..he said ...." I don't think of games in terms of fun" He also said he doesn't think about making the game fun he thinks about making it authentic. Neither of those statements say that he doesn't believe games are supposed to be fun. Truth is...people need to enjoy playing it. If they don't enjoy it they wont do it. I've also heard Rocket say something to the effect of...."It wasn't meant to be fun it was meant to be a tech demo." Thats not a quote. I can see how you might mis-enterpret that to mean that he doesn't want the game to be fun, but it's not what it actually says. To paraphrase him so simplistically...out of context...and say Rocket doesn't think games are supposed to be fun. Well it's just not necessary. If you're going to take it upon yourself to speak for other people you should quote them correctly and keep it in context.

Shut up

Please tell me you're not buying a new computer to play a ARMAII mod that is still in alpha!! Please please please tell me that's not what you're doing. Also iBUYPOWER is a crap company. Don't buy a pre built from them. (MAYBE) buy from here. .. Best prices, personal service from people who know what they're doing. http://www.enuinc.com/

Rocket could you please fix it so you can't just respawn if your leg breaks...

So many things kill this game...the devs are aware of them. They are working on them. Why waste space posting something that has been posted 1000 times before? It leads me to believe there are better ways you could be spending your time.

Please give me the ability to make my character look like Louden Wainwright

Actually i got thrown out of High School in 10th grade EDIT: thats AMERICAN 10th grade which is like 7th grade everywhere else :)

Really? And you're an authority on this because???

Ha!

So you were talking out of your ass :)

The reason he flamed you Char..is because you opened your post by calling him narrow minded and ended it telling him to use his brain for once. A little self awarness would serve you well friend

By what logic? So having 5,000,000 testers is better than having 800,000?

Are you sure that's why hacking ARMA is so easy or are you just talking out of your ass?

Don't let their stupidity devour you. Those who do not know they do not know can never know ;)

my Alice Pack is duping ammo.

I must agree it would behove DayZ to be in closed testing. That way Rocket could test peeps IQ before letting them test. Seriously...closed testing with say....250,000.
