Right-O, moving on then. Basically the idea here is that when playing the game Dead Rising, you were made to feel that the "bandits" were antagonists that you had to defeat with both moral superiority and guns. Now that the true test of what you'd really do, in the sandbox enviornment, has proven you to be the bad guy. How does it feel?

Remind me not to associate post count with intelligence.

2/2, can we go for 3?

Well, that's just like, your opinion, man.

....please stop killing on sight?

It's really a quite wonderful invention

False. But you probably still think you're right, so go on ahead.

And of course certain guns will require less maintenence based on the requirements of their real life counterparts.

This is different for every server.

One does not simply transfuse their own blood

Army National Guard, E1. I'm new:P PM'd

Soon the earlier wont exist and it will be all bandits. As bandits create more bandits through their douchebaggery

My face when Americans call Boxy Bang-Bang Holders "Magazines"

In my mind the bike in question is a tricycle.

At 200 blood its probably better just to lure zombies to a hiding spot near the coast, let them kill you, then spawn and run to get your MP5. Good luck getting there before someone else though

Find yourself a hunting knife, water canteen, hatchet, and box of matches. Then you can pretty much live up north indefinitely.

Will players ever allow society ever rebuild itself in Day Z? Nothing is stopping it but people's unwillingness to cooperate. The tools to resetablish a government and military are avalible but people are too selfish to see the potential in it. Its like the money bowl experiment. Everyone is sitting around a bowl, every 60 seconds 1 dollar is put into the bowl. Anyone can take the money at any time but if the bowl is empty the money stops coming in. Most people in this experiment grab the all money at $5 or $6 thus ending the game, instead of dividing it eavenly and leaving $1 in to keep the game going. Day Z is a lot like that experiment because most people, like in the experiment, play for instant gratification with small rewards rather than teamwork which nets much larger rewards.

A rebuilt society starts with a powerful military, so veteran players with good communication skills are what will be the building blocks of success.

I was under the impression there were periodical mass bannings.

If you enter the NW airfield, expect it to be a kill or be killed situation. And for god's sake, don't log out inside of a building.

Or, set zombies on a "spawn cycle" where every 15 minutes or so zombies will spawn, so if you manage to kill enough you can create a safe zone for a short period of time.

I think you are mistaken. OT: it would be neat. Might actually give me something to do with all those jerry cans when I'm newly spawned.

Meh, it's a game. I can appreciate the finnese of people who gain the trust of unsuspecting people and then murder them. It adds a psychological layer to the gameplay.

Well that sounds like quite the pickle

As a new player I'm sure you can trust the fine and honorable citizens of this forum.
