The main player base doesn't care about making this as close to "real life" as possible and certainly neither does rocket. He focuses on feel and works mechanics around that. This isn't sims. To make this game feel desperate and intense we have punishing firefights and bandits who KoS.

Today I tried being nice. Dude shot me in the head. I remembered why I KoS for gear or not.

Me and my friend are always making zombie growls. Also when I first started playing I'd go for walks late at night and I was noticeably apprehensive of buildings, corners, hiding spots. I kept scanning.

This post primarily made me want a beer.

Its fun, I don't think anyone takes it as seriously as playing on Chernarus, its a bit more of a deathmatch and there are a lot of bugs and server issues. But it keeps me playing day z while I'm bored of chernarus.

Private map, private hive. Go look up a youtube tutorial if you want to play it.

As I've said all over these forums, most of us would just shit ourselves and die. In-fact...I think all of us would.

Lingor is not overly suited to day z, but it is keeping me interested while the many kinks get worked out.

Its complicated. Really it is. It depends if I'm alone, if I'm in a group, if they appear to be a threat, how geared they are, what I may or may not need, how I feel, how aggressive they appear to be playing.

For me they are insanely easy. The fact that I can run around town all day kiting them absolutely destroys immersion.

Seriously, listen to what was said above. I play every night for probably 3-4 hours and I never ever encounter hackers. Once. Once in two months of solid playing most nights. Why? I go on low pop servers.

I feel like we could boil this entire thread down to people banging pots and pans and yelling. Or maybe that is just the internet. Holy shit. I'm going to go outside. Haven't said that in a while. Maybe you've cured me.

I like this topic, I've had this question in mind for a while. It seems that my group only scouts for twenty seconds or so. I feel like once you've checked all the spots you could check, like it has been said earlier, the only real concern is arrivals. I'd always rather spot someone than hear nothing. Its the silence that is dangerous.

There are a few, always full. Its unfortunate but it isn't part of the hive and it isn't "legit" in the sense that it is private. So we can't really complain at scarcity.

The problem I see with that is that trolls will just burn down cities. Really, it'll happen. Constantly.
