it's alpha... you didn't pay for it... it's a mod, not a game... 3rd person is an exploit... oh, wait... wrong thread :) (have my beans... this place is painfully slow! and sadly, that beige box probably could do a better job) :D

always loved a good ass! :D

fisting... indeed! and combos! left, right, left, right (hmmm, can you jab while fisting?). oh... and donkey punches!

good stuff! thanks for EVERYTHING!

12 y/o daughter and i game together... makes the "DayZ experience" much more enjoyable. no surprise, she's less of a bitch than most the QQ'ers in this community :D

Indeed! And it's a GOOD thing to see admins/hosts, etc reaching out to the community! And again, I do understand the "arguments" on both sides. I enjoy 1st person only... but to be honest, having an eyefinity setup makes it MUCH easier (advantage?). I do see the advantage a 3rd person view can give... but it's an "advantage" available to everyone... and for those that think it's OP, etc, etc... than there are servers that are 1st only. (which, i guess, it what starts the 3rd vs. 1st to begin with) Anyways... none of this has anything to do with your "original" inquiry (directly, anyways)... Again, THANK YOU for reaching out... just that alone is enough to get a few visits to the server from me! :)

short-sighted or near-sighted? :D the point i'm trying to make is... never IRL have i been able to "zoom" my vision to get a "closer look" at something than the already IRL FOV I have. (not arguing for/against being able to see as far as Arma's engine allows me to). I just think the debate of "this view/that view" etc., is flawed. If it was about "fair" then shouldn't the game be locked to specific resolution, have every one forced to play on the same size monitor, same hardware, etc? So that no one would have any advantage? (just being devil's advocate is all). Anyways, like I've stated... I don't have a real preference either way... and no desires to anger anyone :)

Either 3rd/1st or 1st only is fine by me (though i will admit 1st only takes some getting used to in Arma2/DayZ). However, I'm not sure how the "3rd person exploit" is any different than the "right-click your mouse to see an unrealistically far distance exploit." But right-click certainly is not used by hardcore gamers... as it makes the game too easy, cheapens the game/experience, is unrealistic, gives snipers/campers super powers, etc etc... :huh:

first... much respect to itputsthelotion! i have no problem with PK'ers, KOS'ers, trolls, a-holes, etc. just be honest about it! seriously... at least itputsthelotion has the respect to do that! however, OP... wouldn't this have been a much more honest thread if you just stated that you "LIKE" to kill unarmed players just to cause them grief? (which i'm fine with... honestly). i could go on and on... but, here's the simpleton take (yes... i'm a simpleton). your logic... really hurts my brain (hard to do to a simpleton). first, you say: "People don't want to build character, they just want the easy way again and again. I say, bring on the hog tying, bring on the survivor trade. Surely it'd be a reality in a real end of the world scenario. (http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/67477-why-i-kill-unarmed-players/page__st__100#entry647204) yet, you also state: "If i had my way, I'd round up every new spawn in the game, herd them onto a tiny strip of land at the coast (perhaps near cherno) and just keep them in there with barb wire fences. I'd also occasionally fly over and bomb them" (http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/67477-why-i-kill-unarmed-players/page__st__60#entry646632) Funny... but rounding up "every new spawn" seems like the "easy way." (in fact, how much easier could it get for YOU). Or maybe that's building character :/ I was however, thinking of spawning fresh again... care to let me know which server you are keeping safe? :D i'd love to have a warm fuzzy feeling inside, knowing i'm being protected from noobs!

now i don't feel so dirty ;)

This: Again... sorry for leaving you with a bloody butt-hole, "WantToTeamUp" - But seriously... would you trust someone with a name like that? :D And while I'm far from being a Bandit... I guess we were desperate (though it does sound like I'm having too much fun)

ha... this thread is great!

LOL... damn! And I answered all proud! HA HA... yup! I will say... it is a "strange" sensation watching your kid(s) die... even if just in a game!

YUP! In fact... my 12y/o daughter and I play together everyday! Not shockingly... she's less of a bitch than most of QQ'ers here on this forum :P Have 2 other boys that will hop on once in a while... but they are more BF3/COD fans. Here's a little clip... and sorry for the "cheese" :) Sadly, this game has turned her into a KOS'er!!! LOL... you can hear her "sinister" plan for the stranger we encounter! EDIT: Oh... and it did take a few days of playing for her to "calm down" on her play style as well (even this is an older vid). She too likes being a little "careless" and will take dumb risks for loot (and usually crap loot). She's getting better now... and doesn't like having to run for 30 minutes to meet back up with me :)

amazing stuff! big thanks to all of you!

mumble. like has been stated... open-source. run a server at home and works GREAT. for just a client, TS3 isn't bad either.

heh... why not? i see no difference in this thread, than a "real" survivor posting a notice on buildings, etc., in towns warning others of the "bandits." that being said... i could see threads started w/usernames of wrongly accused (who knows what circumstances brought about you getting shot). maybe i had a point... who knows :P
