Servers will have options.... First person only and others for both. Play what you want.... problem solved

I don't understand why you are interested? There will be both 1st person only and/or 1st&3rd person servers.... Choose what you want and don't worry about the others, seems logical to me lol.

I have read through almost all these posts I think and there are tons of ideas "I think" that they could use, build onto or implement into the game. However there is one thing that will never change in these types of games. Call them tryhards, KOS players whatever it may be... but I play with currently, have played with in Dayz mod/wasteland/Warz players that have 1 simple goal in mind: Go kill as many players as they can. They don't care if its a axe, pistol or full equiped player they have or what they have in their inventory, when they see an enemy its go time. Sorry but there is nothing you will ever be able to implement into these games that will pull these types of players away from this activity (I have been one in the mod/Warz). It is simply the "mentality" of the player that they will not be able to wean them away. The "turbin" in the mod was a great feature... bugged at it was. It was a clear notification that this player was not to be trusted. The fact that it "went away" after they died was some what good and bad at the same time. It gave them a chance to play this character different... maybe be nice this time around instead of being labeled as a bad guy for the rest of the time. However it also gave them camouflage to hide amongst the others. I would like to see something like this returning, either give them a few masks or some kind of head gear to choose from but they "MUST" have one of the bandit identified ones on at all times. (Problems this may cause) - It glorifies killing players to get the mask or so called trophy, but in all honestly killers are gonna kill with or without it. Give them their "trophy" and this will atleast give the players a clear heads up (this dude is bad news). Things that would have to be in the game though.... -Good guy killing a bandit player: There should be no consequence for any other player killing a bandit player on site. He chose his path and therefore made himself a target. Players should be able to KOS to make sure they stay alive without it counting against their humanity level. - Fresh Spawns: People are going to keep killing them no matter what is implented, so these kills should not count toward their "banditry or humanity level" and made even should count as a negative for their goal of becoming a bandit causing it to take them longer to get their trophy. That may discourage them from killing fresh spawns... I doubt it though. - Good guys: Players that help other randoms should also have some kind of trophy. Facial Hair growing longer (everyone seems to like the beard idea for other things), or getting some kind of a identification on their mask/helmet or gear letting players know that this guy has not just been killing people on site, he can actually be trusted. Will some of these things help cut out banditry? Maybe... maybe not because as I stated it does not matter WHAT they attempt to do... the guys I know and play with will continue killing everything they can for fun. However it may cut down the percentage of it happening if you can do it right. Penalizing players because the KOS though is not a fix it is their choice to play that way, but you have to be careful not to glorify it at the same time. Lots of good ideas are coming from the community so hopefully they can figure out something to go with... but in anything like this is however brings the "Realism feeling" that everyone wants so you have to kind of find a happy medium. For me, I am happy with whatever as long as it doesn't penalize anyone for playing how they want. It's fine the way it is now as well just throwing ideas out. I kill when I want, I handcuff and steal if I choose or I let them live if I am feeling happy... sometimes they don't even know I am watching them.

I'd say not to random since you were spawning on the coast, where other people spawn as well. He probably just spawned in not to long before you and got lucky finding a weapon. Just unlucky on your part

lmfao... no thanks

LOL, whoops.... at work on the phone at the same time :D. Also if people can't tell.... yes I was joking.

I GOT IT! Implement taking a dump as part of the game.... "must be alive for so long before you can take a dump" then add a counter to your screen, longer you live the more dumps you can take. The amount of shits given on this idea... could be record breaking!

eventually I am sure we will have tents, hidey holes and cars back. This is where you can/will store your extra gear, people can find your "storage" and steal it all yes... but thats the risk you take. Right now, none of that is in the game yet but I am sure will be coming back very soon.

KOS will never go away, period. I am fine with that, but I do like the idea of something that could cut down on some of it.... "maybe"

Careful? I just said I love the beard idea.... the rest of the comment had nothing to do with that.

I LOVE THE BEARD IDEA.... I would feel more manly :D I do love this idea or the thought of the idea, as long as the "traits" don't come with making someone be able to aim better, shoot more accurate or anything that is game breaking or OP it could work. Great thought though for sure.

unless I looted that area at the wrong times the last 15 times I was there right off the water (Used to be a small medical camp) you won't find much there. Maybe it was just my luck or whatever but I never found much there. Now across the way in the military barracks I found plenty though. The huge badass apartments are generally a waste of time right now, takes forever to loot every single room and right now not a ton spawn up there. Best bet.... get some food and move ya ass up north, its rough living down South on the coast.

lol all these explinations of why/how people should or should not play, bandits and KOS players or survivers all alike trying to explain to another why its ok and not ok to play this way and that way are making me chuckle. Who cares...... play how you want and shut up, quit trying to make some false statement of how you play when simply you enjoy killing players and that's what your going to do or you simply just want to survive. I kill when I want, I help when I want, I play nice if I choose... and a few times I have was hiding like a school girl. Your choice no one elses, just play the game and stop wasting your time trying to "explain" yourselves to others because no one really cares.

If your waiting on some kind of sale I would say you will be waiting awhile... the game is brand new and will only get more expensive as it goes through Beta/Full Release. Unless you want to wait FOREVER, you are not going to get it any cheaper than now, for a long long time. its a whole $30, people spend that on nothing anymore.... why would you not just spend the $30? :rolleyes:

you have steam? click buy, Success! If you have already bought it... load the game, click join server or just double click!
