    I wouldn't be opposed to it, but I think it'd be a waste of dev time. It wouldn't make any real difference, something that big isn't going to blend in no matter what you do. It's so easy to spot anything from air if you're looking.
  2. Spot on post OP. A good example is to watch some of the twitch streams of day-z. You'll see a group of people, each equipped with every item one would want in the game flying in a helicopter on a low pop server. They simply hoard more of the same gear they have or tactically outmaneuver 2 lee enfield equipped noobs on the south coast with their team of snipers/spotters and designated machine gun users. Variations on this theme exist but the same general principle always applies. The people are assuming zero risk in doing whatever they are doing.
  3. Try out the campaign in the game you paid for. It's fun if not a little unforgiving, just like the mod.
  4. I normally get geared up by finding tents like yours. If there's not much there sometimes I just note the location and let it set for awhile, let the owner think it's safe. Then once he loads it up I raid it. Tent finding is also just one of my favorite activities in game.
  5. Play recklessly until you get killed. You could join a group but honestly that's just going to get you in the same boat, just much quicker.
  6. Gear up on lower pop servers. Don't try to be sneaky in towns, just run. While running remember to serpentine for snipers!
  7. Lol know what ya mean. I took a look at it and was amazed people actually pay money for that pos.
  8. Playing alone is fine. You've just experienced what most new players do at first. You will learn. I think I would have quit already if I played mostly in a group as there is no risk involved whatsoever. Playing solo keeps you on your toes.
  9. Looking forward to when I get thunderdomed. I feel left out that I haven't had any problems, especially since everybody else gets attacked by hackers.
  10. Zeds "see" out of their chests. Their head can be cocked looking at you but they won't see you unless their chest points at you. Crouch walking should be ok, or even crouch running sometimes.
  11. Not in my experience. I must just be very lucky picking servers as I've never had a problem with hackers. I play in a variety of populated servers mostly in the 20/40 range.
  12. It's possible I've had 120 or so zed kills. Pick a low pop server to start out on. That way you can gear up in Cherno/Elektro without as much risk from other players. Night servers are also good as most NVG users are up north by the airfield and stary. Once you get geared just stay in the woods or if you want to kill zeds go for the little towns in the middle of nowhere.
  13. Just round em up and run into a house then either kill them or leave em there. Never try to be sneaky in cities. While it sounds like a good idea in theory, in reality it just makes you an easy target for other players.
  14. The rarest thing I've found myself is a coyote backpack in a deerstand. I have literally found nothing else worth mentioning like gps, nvg, ghillie etc. Off of players I've found everything.
  15. The suggestions impact would be close to nothing I imagine. People who get mad in video games always like to paint those that they don't like as "kids", as if being a kid is a bad thing. Most players are probably over 18 so that means most hackers and people who use sniper rifles are adults.
