Ok yeah sometimes the heat of the moment things happen so fast The sniper guy i meant to say put the weapon away but accidently said drop it I just wanted to get past but didn't want him to turn and shoot me in surprise Anyway I'm done here, I've learnt a few things I might try in the future to try and better my play style and I'll see how they turn out

Ok fair enough, I might try telling them to not just point it at me from now on, I've not been on the receiving end that much so I'll give this a try next time I run into an armed player and see what happensThe one time we met some guys they did say don't point it at them instead of disarm and I actually did feel like complying more I just put my weapon away as manners really

Well if you run away no I won't shoot youBut if you run away when someone simply says hello then you have bigger problems with yourself In fact most people run away when I say hello and I let them go as long as they arnt taking up a position with a gun and still not talking back You have great skill in turning any post into something negative and trying to weed out and make people slip up There is an infinite number of things that could happen like them running away, shall we go through every single possible scenario until you find some small little thing I might do that offends your code and makes me a bandit? Watch this http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WD-yn8szNbQ I want you to watch this as me and my group encountered some people and we fired first I want you to tell me if it was justified and if you really think this is being a bandit And then watch this http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ttBWdguoFBI

No he's not a bandit by the sound of things I usually say hello if I'm behind cover before telling them tat we can both put away our weapons and talk the out without bloodshed So if I say "hello" The guy draws his gun and starts looking around and doesn't respond Do I'll say "hey I'm friendly, there's no need to act hostile so please put your gun away or I'll have to kill you" Keeps looking around without responding, starts moving towards where I am So I peek out and shoot him Now, if your classing someone like me a bandit, then you really do know nothing about this game All he has to do us say "hello" back and we can work out some kind of arrangement And no, people like me can't leave people alone We hunt bandits and help friendly survivors so we approach most people to see if they need help Ect and if they act hostile, well it's usually one less bandit people have to worry about for a while

The melee weapon in a building not hitting zombies is a known bug, but only some buildings have this problemAlso I haven't played the experimental but as far as I've experienced zombies hitting you from a distance is usually de sych

You were probably killed after you logged off the server You stay in game for 30 seconds afterwards Or did you combat log at the base while getting shot at?

Sounds good to me I'm sure we are going to see some threads "OMG zombies are overpowered fix now!" The moment the update is realeased though

Yeah that's true So far we've not had anyone backstab us this way, sometimes they have followed us afterwards and we've had to kill them but everyone that's talked to is has put their weapons away and not tried anything I'm usually doing the over watch with a long range scope so most of the time we have got a decent view of the area

When we see someone we tell them to put their weapon away we assure them we arnt going to kill them, we tell them straight away they are free to leave unharmed or if they want to stick around or if they need something they have to put their gun away when they approach and we will do the same Although to be fair we always have a hidden guy ready to shoot them of they draw on us, so we don't let our guard down even though they think we have We tell them if they raise or point their gun in our direction we will kill them That's as friendly as it gets if you want to both survive and play friendly Like I said, they eiether leave freely or they comply if they want to talk

Well that's gonna be the most boring video ever made. Whats the point in killing them? It just makes it look like your too scared to engage armed players. You want people to like your videos? Then post something that's actually worth watching. No one will want to see you killing fresh spawns, if they want to see that they can easily do it themselves I was gonna dislike your video, but you have disabled it, I can see why, because it would have about 250 dislikes by now

Lol just because someone didn't KOS doesn't mean they have no 'mental strength'Being good and being trusting are two different things, he's getting you to lose the weapon because he doesn't trust you I'm good, but I'll not trust you....ever Maybe when zombies become more of a threat and your all alone, maybe then you'll realise that you might need some help from time to time

It depends, the guys who camp Kamyshovo with snipers shooting newspawns are usually pretty crappy but I've still met a lot of KOS players who are good at what they do

Well my group hunt people who kill on sight and I don't think their skill has anything to do with it I've met bandits who kill on sight and are by no means bad at the game, there are times where we have been outnumbered and won and times where the enemy has half our numbers and has beaten us because they are eiether good at the game/ took us by surprise Ect There are also many bandits who KOS who are terrible Just yesterday a guy ambushed two of my group and missed a 40 round mag from an M4 at about 10metres away before we killed him But there's been times where one guy can snipe most of your group with one shots if he's good enough and you can see him

8. Comply and see what their intentions are, I rarely play without my group and we are usually split into teams of 2 if there are 4-6 or us in one group and in one area So if those guys are up to no good they won't know what hit them

Well it doesn't stop combat logging, because it wouldn't be possible to stop it as there are too many ways to instant close the game That's why when you leave your character stays on the game for 30 seconds so of you combat log people can still kill you Which means combat logging won't have an effect most of the time

So your like pretty much everyone else in the game then Way to go at being original Seeing as theres no server info or anything, people arnt going to even know it was you so the post is kinda pointless Posts like these are just to get your murder boner going, no one actually cares

Arma games were made to appeal to a SPECIFIC audience and they got by fine DAYZ is the same, I played the mod for a year and a half and now play the standalone and im always having fun Just because your not having fun doesn't mean others don't enjoy it

I say "Put your weapons away, I'm friendly but if you do anything stupid I'll have to kill you" There's a surprisingly large amount of stupid people in the game Some even drawn their weapons and try to aim at me, maybe they don't realise it takes me a fraction of a second to shoot a guy who's drawing their weapon, when it takes them a good 3 seconds to draw and fire their own weapon when they have it away

I'll add my input I think it will be a challenge, so the best thing to do is join a friendly clan There are a number of friendlies recruiting, the CQF might be a good choice for you as they are a decent bunch of guys and also run pretty large groups of 15-20 when running operations, they deal in mostly survivor rescue, assistance and anti bandit operations What I'm thinking is that as a part of a large group like that you also won't have to constantly talk so it might make it easier without having to worry about saying too much but still have some people watching your back Hope that helps

Well I like the idea if it were to be put in the game Only problem is people can log out as soon as they see a horde on the horizen, especially snipers (of which many still try and combat log)

more zombies won't reduce KOS But tougher zombies they do far more damage and actually path find will encourage people to work together In the mod, the dayz+ version made zombies kill you in a couple of hits and there were far more I met hardly any hostiles in there because people needed help just getting away from the coast and couldn't do it alone If Zombies were tough to kill , killed you in a few hits, chased you everywhere and came upstairs and climbed ladders you would see far less snipers on rooftops and less people running and gunning in elektro For those that say you wouldn't, that's fine if you enjoy hours of gearing up and sneaking past hordes to get a rifle only to get mobbed the first player you KOS and have 30 zombies relentlessly chasing you But yeah, that will never happen, I doubt they will ever be a challenge

Today something strange happened I had a mosin and a guy drew a shotgun on me, I pulled the trigger and it clicked.....resulting in my death I actually got 2 clicks before being killed It was pristine and also had ammo, in fact I had just reloaded it a few minutes before after firing some shots with it I know if it was ruined it wouldn't work, but this was pristine and was still like that (with loaded ammo, also pristine) when a teammate checked my corpse So are the guns jamming now or has something another explanation?

It was on stable, but I guess it could have just been a bug where the ammo didn't register as being loaded straight away That's what it sounds like to me thanks

Yep the players don't change I died to a bug by falling off a hill where I seemed to glitch in the scenery and die So respawn at elektro and it's only about 8 people on including 3 of my team so I think it will be safe but nope Two guys are camping inside the fire station and chase me all across elektro shooting at me before they catch up and kill me and I'm forced to listen to the teen trash talk while I'm re spawning Next I teach elektro again some time later on a new server and meet two guys on the road, I have a mosin this time and fall back to re fire station where 2 teammates of mine are waiting as one of the other players pulls a shotgun on me We surrounded them and tell them not to shoot, guy raises his shotgun and I pull the trigger but my gun clicked even though it had ammo and is pristine Well he shoots me with the double barrel and then my two friends shoot them after we told them to put their gun away Somehow they thought they could win with fists and 2 shotgun rounds against 3 guys Yep people are still dumb

I once got disconnected in the middle of the road by a small town and didn't want to risk getting shot while in the open and logged in to a server with 1 person and when my screen came up a guy was running at me with a baseball bat, it happens And that was just a small town
