What you need, is a fleshlight. The ultimate survival tool.

This was some very interesting information. Thank you!

Are you serious? Are you serious?

Hi, I don't think of you're suggestion at all. It would make it more unrealstic, you are well hidden in the grass as it is. And also the grass falling down makes it easier to spot moving players, which is a really nice thing, because thats how it is in real life. It work as intended. You just need to learn the basics first.

I think most people would find it more fun to shoot a guy with his hands up. This will not work, I guess you're new to this game? If walking unarmed up to a player talking to them through a microphone with your own human voice don't help for one shit, then putting you're arms up most certainly wont. Edit: Also as said above, use the search function before you post. It will make you look more smart! :) Have a good day!

What is this?

I think this would be a natural step, but the mod is as we all know, still in Alpha. The developers have little or no support doing this, but hopefully that will change. When they get more support to develop, I think more actions getting the game more teamplay friendly will be done. As of today it's very difficult to encourage other players to trust you and play with you, players you meet in game i mean. With friends you know from outside the game its more easy, but thats not for everyone, in fact the vast minority it seems. I see mostly solo players in DayZ. We need more incentiv to teamplay, which hopefully will come later on. For now we just have to try harder with what we have.. Myself for instance takes the whole game less seriously. I run around not caring to much about farming gear, things come along when i move along.. I try to seek out players for some fun. Sure, I die and lose alot of gear, but so what? It's more exciting, especially when I find a trustworthy player, then it's super awesome! :) Main step to achieve this is not to give a shit about you're gear.. I don't make the game about "phat lootz" or whatever you guys call it. Edit: Should have added a final sentence or two. Make the game about having fun with other players, atleast some of the time. Be it running around in the forest saying crazy shit over voicechat, trolling other players with some fun stuff. Or maybe hunt another team, atleast you would do it together.

All the weapons have been subjected to nerfing. The Makarov is now even worse off.

Nice dude, I have AS50 + Ammo for you in change for some lovely dew.

You don't in Russia, they're to tierd after the beating they just got.

Hehe, it's like a safe haven out there.. Best place to get some nice supplies. Guess I'll be seeing you there for some fun.

But what if a noob player found this, he would pick up some nice stuff from these crates for sure.. I know I would, how can this be a reason for ban? For the guy posting here the choice is obvious.

There are places to go in the east aswell.... Even an airstrip, Berzino is a major city for instance.

You don't think this has been postet many times before on this forum? I know you're trying to help, but I would recommend reading the forum guidelines.

I can tell you my story, one of the first nights I played I was actually a bit frustrated after losing some nice gear. Revenge on the innocent was my idea. So I spawned, ran through the nereast town and found myself an enfield and som other handy stuff like flares, chemlights, matches and wood(haha). Then I sat out, lighting up fires, throwing flares and everything that could make some light to attract some players. Then I heard gunshots. Some moments later I see two people running toward the lights along a railway in crouch mode. One in front with a hatchet and the other behind with a rifle of some sort, guess it was to kill zombies quietly if they aggro any. I started to sneak up on them to get in position with my enfield to kill'em as they came closer. By accident I aggroed a zombie, I had to run to get them of me, big mistake... I aggroed even more zombies, I could not just turn around and shoot them because that would alert they guys closing in on my position.. After a few seconds with running I had many more zeds after me and I saw no choice to run toward the guys I planned to kill. I did not hope for any help, but maybe some of the zombies would aggro on them instead. What happend was that they just laid down and watched me get eaten alive by the zombie hoard, haha! Don't what they felt, but it most have been a funny sight that late night, haha.. No more night hunting for me since then.

@Previous post: You're so cool. You are indeed elite.

There is always a choice. People should atleast try to make contact before they open fire, I do.. Often with some sort of demand or else I will shot. I'm atleast giving them some sort of choice too showe me that their friendly. If you do have to cap someones ass, atleast scream out something funny right before you shoot them. That wayt I might die with a bigger smile :)

Equal rights zombie movement! We will NOT accept this!

You were camping with you're sniper waiting for easy kills? And you are wondering why nobody shows? Maybe people have found out that there are other places to go than Stary, Cherno or Electro.

All he ever wanted was some :beans:

Locking servers should be allowed, youre paying for it, your decisions. On the other hand, it should be rules stating that exploiting is not allowed. Like farming veicheles and such. The best thing about locking servers are that small communities of people around the world can make sure that only trusted members play on that particular server. Giving only the access to trusted members will also get rid of the cheater problem, or at least make it far more safe. It will anyway be a small amount of the servers doing this so I don't see the problem with this affecting people playing DayZ who is not a part of this community. Edit: Much like private torrent sites, it works.

No need to be like that DraWx.. The biggest problem with all communities are people like you being anything but nice. Why don't you grow some hair and contribute rather than behaving like a 12 year old kid. And to previous post. I agree. People should be more respectful, not throw bad language all the time. I do think that this post is popular because it discusses on of the core elements of this game :)

I wont bet my beans on this, but I think this is not acceptabel. A "friend" of mine said that the DayZ devz do not allow admins to ban people. Seems to me that the devs make it hard for server admins to actually do something with this problem. As stated, I don't know if this is actually true, but I don't know why someone would lie about this. I guess the devs is trying to prevent server admin abuse, but I think that will happen anyway so why not just let admins ban cheaters? Also, as said before in this thread. I think the hacker issue is blown a bit out of proportions in the forums. The problem is precent, but not as much as it is presented in here. Have a good one! :)

I'm a noob myself. Played it for a couple of days.. No problems for me, I managed just fine without weapons in the beginning. I died quickly the first times, but on my 5 try I went on a 2 days journey with alot of fun :) No need to be an asshole just because it's the Internet. I did think my post through before posting, and i think OP is to narrow minded just because it's a game with a little steap learning curve. The whole point of this game is to make it a little more interesting, and it is. Don't give it regenerating health and an option to start with to much, it will ruin the experience.

It's funny how scared people get when their handed a game who actually challange you.. This game(ALPHA) is awesome, even with all the bugs and problems. This fucking game gets me more excited than any other game I've played, even BF3 which had dinosaurs in it. It can really be intense, if you give it a chance. The generation of gamers coming to the marked for the last years have been dumbed down. You can see that when they complain about starting with no weapons, map and so on.. Come on, take the challange for crying out loud! When was the last time a game didn't handle you all the good stuff within the instant you spawn? This mod is supergreat, it gives me hope for future game development. It gets boring with the games coming out today which you can "master" within 3 minutes. Have a nice day! :)
