For death-matching players yeah it's pointless. For a role-player it's a very immersive experience.

Better question. * Why are you even on this forum? Are you poor?
-
Steam has probably made the game more popular. * Another title would be both "Path of Exile and Warframe".
-
But then again we are expecting mature audience. Oh the irony :P
-
Count the numbers of survivors. http://dayzgame.com/age-gate#.UrpArPRDveI Then multiply by 30. They could even made more by the supporter packs.
-
I can't wait when BI hires a massive team to support this on-going game, it's quite exciting. * DayZ has a massive amount of potential and the community does see it.
-
Well his goal is to add more than just looking for people to kill. * I'd say this is the right way to start.
-
Ok I'll admit it , this was on the bottom of his shoes.
-
Reading, quite rare in a video game.

Kill on sight... my group is doing it now

Third person view removal from SA discussion
sobieski12 replied to lev's topic in General Discussion
The final decision rests with rocket, of which btw already agrees with you. Rocket personally likes the mechanic in which he can see himself in the world, but then again rocket also said that he does not really like pvp and is not really associated with that discussion. If people like the cheap mechanic, be my guest. * Personally I am just disappointed that the 1st person servers where not introduced at launch. But then again rocket has multiple different problems. The Public Hive system * Server Hopping * Combat Logging * Death Logging * Private Server Looting * Dead Server looting * Loot respawn But o well, alpha is alpha. -

Well lets continue this scenario. On a 3rd person server you can easily scout your surroundings while being in heavy tree cover, no need to expose yourself until you need to kill. On a 1st person server you would need to expose your self to get a better view in your surrounding area, exposing your-self gives a fair chance for other players to spot you. -

No offense the last 10 players I've killed in cherno where all running, any better advice for them? -

Wrong, on the 1st person server you would need to stand or crouch on the edge of a tower of which you can be spotted and counter-sniped. * While on the 3rd person server you can stay prone and just wait for the right moment to go crouch and take the shot. * 3rd person camera exploiting 101 -

It took a while for the 3rd person community to defend the exploit. Any person on a roof top can exploit this camera and get an absolute advantage over another player. Which is quite funny because this is exactly what I am doing while I snipe players in cherno, do the players of which I am shooting at have a chance to spot me? Nope. * I've got a clear shot since I can abuse this camera and server system in never getting caught. Could I just continue to server hop and kill more players, well yes since this is the public hive at its best. I'll probably get flamed for this post, but the community needs to deal with reality. -
Just read this on the DayZ steam forums. * Another reason to remove the public hive and bring in isolated servers. - If there is a way to exploit , people will always do it.

Thought server hopping was bad!? It gets worse.
sobieski12 replied to sobieski12's topic in General Discussion
Problem about private hives is that it gives too much freedom to the admins. * Such as the 20,000 vehicles , 200 barracks , 1,000 helicopters , 24/7 day If Isolated servers where to be introduced. Rocket could keep the system he wants and it would remove the, ghosting and loot server hopping. * Isolated servers would not grant admins to change the server settings. Not to mention this would discourage clan only servers, but if admins have the ability to restart. They will abuse it for sure to gain an advantage in gear. -

It won't be removed due to the simple reason that a massive chunk of this community is dependent on it. -

Some people play in a survival type fashion. Others treat it like a deathmatch mode. -

You people are incredible. Where did I comment that I wanted a private hive. The only thing I'd want is a isolated server, there is a difference between a hive and a server. Edit : Seems I took the troll bait. -

ARMA 3 Breaking Point already has a 5 min timer between servers. * That does not stop people from ghosting / server hopping. But the player honestly still has the obvious choice, should you run for 30+ minutes to get military gear, or wait 5 - 15 min in server hopping. Not to mention the chance to sneak up on geared players and no need to travel to find military loot. -

sobieski12 replied to sobieski12's topic in General Discussion
I never said I wanted a private hive. I just want an isolated server. * The private servers once did play the classic mod, before all the 20k car 200 barracks buildings etcetc -

Does this apply to every server company or a selected few? I remember the days when server companies would blacklist certain servers, but not all care. -
Yeah and while we are at it, lets throw a squad of F-16s at the NWAF airbase. Lets also add a fully armed battleship iowa class off the coast of Elektro. :P
