Fear The Amish replied to lord3n's topic in General Discussion
my problem is people don't listen... Last night was meeting a bambi friend in Balota and i see someone at night with flashlight on in a barrack's. Yell out and type "step out of the barracks slowly with your hands up by hitting f2 i WILL not shoot you jus want to be safe". Ignored me then came running out with a pistol and i think accidently ran right at me (was night i was prone). So i had to put him down i wasn't even going to rob him was going to give him some basic supplies if he needed them. Craziest part was the pistol didn't even have ammo so i still kinda feel bad. -

Server hopping is killing this game FAST
Fear The Amish replied to phoboss's topic in General Discussion
Basically this basically if you cant find a server that hasn't restarted recently (under an hour) almost everything is gone. -
Personally not a KoS'r in the mod i used to stick near elektro and stalk new players. basically acted as a gaurdian angle killed a few people that attempted to kill them. In SA i have done some banditry with the handcuffs but i never KoS on purpose. Point to all this is a think KoS add's spice to what would normally be a very bland game.

Fear The Amish replied to ThirdSinger's topic in General Discussion
When i say mouthy i mean he started calling me a SOB and blah blah blah... basically all i took was some ammunition and a compass even left them with their guns (without ammo) and melee weapons etc. Others were quiet nice basically just said "reach for the sky and don't turn around or your gettting a .44 lobotomy". Advised them i was just looking for a few things if they cooperated they would leave alive. Actually bandaged one guy also because he didn't have rags or anything and was bleeding out. -

The most elegant solution to playerkilling on SA and possibly dayz mod
Fear The Amish replied to alanford's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
For some reason you all think Scarcity = teamwork.. you do realize every tribal killing, family fued, brushfire conflict, world war. was all over scarcity of resources?!? oh limit ammo? yeah you know what i am just going to shoot every player i see with a gun to get their ammo then. Limit food? same thing, you are doing the exact opposite when you make something scarce. Also the sound issue with gunshots. To be realistic if you are firing on something a half mile away (most sniper shots) the sound would reflect all over and would be very difficult to discern its direction in RL. -
So been out of game for a while and was wondering if the script kiddies are still all over the place.

yeah i am curious also left right when the hacking got really bad. Thinking about coming back for a few survival tours.

Today I have been legitimally global banned for cheating
Fear The Amish replied to Thadeum's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
i have been playing day z for awhile now, and thought i would throw in my 2 cents. When i first started playing hacking/scripting was either not around or very very negligible. the HUGE difference was the lack of super high end weapons. Because even benign hacking ruins the game by making DMR's and other crazy weapons highly prevalent. I remember when my clan got into a gunfight with another clan and the most leet weapon was 1 guy with an m16a2 CCO SD and he had to fire very limited because his ammo was so scarce. I miss those days when the game was more about scavenging and being incredibly careful with what you have. Now adays if i die i just run around in the wilderness for an hour and ill be completely regeared off duper tents. It just isn't fun anymore even if you claim you never killed anyone you still added weapons and other garbage for the game ruining it for others. -

DayZ: The state of death, and the Great Storage debate
Fear The Amish replied to The Sad Panda's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The problem with this is the leet loot wasn't a problem before hackers. back before this mod became popular my clan had 1 m16a2 cco sd..... thats right out of 20 people 1. we also had 1 DMR and 3 NVG's between all of us. and WE were considered leet geared because of that. you have to remember so the people that had them were VERY protective of their bodies. 90% of this thread's issues can easily be resolved by fixing the hacking issue because that takes out the influx of the super high tier weapons. also the ammo... you know how hard it is to find a consistent amount of the high end weapon ammo with out the filling out clip issue and hacking?!? it was ridiculous. -

Fear The Amish replied to capefear56's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion

Social Observation: Playing DayZ to not play DayZ
Fear The Amish replied to ACow's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
But if your not in a clan you don't see the crazy side of clan play. until hackers became an issue our home server was home to another clan. ever night both of us would go looting, and if we ran into each other it became a war over what ever city/place it was. I remember we bother were raiding berezino we came from north them from south and there litterally was a 15-20 person fire fight going on between the buildings. it was NUTS, and this was before hacking was prevalent so most us just had akm's, m16a2, winnies you know mid tier weapons. basically neither side did the silly CoD combat of running and gunning it was little flank moves etc. and when they started losing to many people they pulled out because they didn't wanna lose the vehicles. but they left a few snipers so we ended up leaving for same reason. THIS right here is the essence of a survival game, i started solo and got to the point were i was living easily for weeks. found a clan and we started building a "community" in game. its the evolution of a society after an apocalypse, and honestly on the tents thing think about it if someone in your "community" died the loot is redistributed to others in a r/l scenario. unless you make perma death you die and the game uninstalls then its not really perma death. i think the problem is most of you have only been playing for under a month and don't know what the game was like before hacking/duping became an issue because i remember when a DMR up was a RARE bird and the ammo was rare enough you only used it when you absolutely had to. game was a totally different place. -
Social Observation: Playing DayZ to not play DayZ
Fear The Amish replied to ACow's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
ok couple of things, this is an apocalypse simulator (or running =)) but its silly to think people wouldn't band together into groups and use that to their best advantage. and the VOIP thing... think about it this way they looted some walkie talkies ;). but the funnest times i have are with my clan rolling into a town with a car and a few atv's cleaning it out then hauling it back to base. -
just empty the tents onto the ground then save them its what i do when i find hacker tents.
-
this sounds like a fun thing to crash (just like last church of cherno) i dont care if you like ponies, or teddy bears, or alligators, or godzilla if i see a group of players together sounds like a target rich environment. so if anyone spia's out thier server please let me know i got a belt full of frags and looking for a good time.
-
ok i have a problem with the way mod's and people are acting... the last church of cherno had a post for a meeting and in forum had alot of both banits declaring they would attack the places as well as others declaring they would defend... but if you like ponies we cant do that? i find that ridiculous. This is a public forum if we want to talk about how we are going to attack a PLAYER EVENT in a game why are we getting "reported". This is meta gaming.

This isnt a game it... changes people.
Fear The Amish replied to HamTheBacon's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
yeah it can go both ways. i honestly have only killed 3-4 players and have been playing for months, reason is i usually avoid other players. only time i have killed someone is either when i stalked them and watched them kill another player then promptly drill them when they loot the corpse or when i kill someone when they try and kill me first (key is to constantly move and wait for them to reload then just drill them). the only players i trust are my clan mates besides that i avoid contact with other players. -

Your unluckiest/luckiest moments in DayZ?
Fear The Amish replied to Jack Pilot's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
was running to elektro to grab basic loot after spawning. had nothing suddenly i hear on voice chat "STOP!!" i keep running and zig zag. suddenly get shot in the back with a shotgun and knocked down, thinking im screwed i respond "what ever i have nothing if you want to kill me go ahead". a player comes up and checks my back pack then bandages me shoots me up with morphine and says... "sorry sir just gaurding a camp and making sure no one comes around unauthorized do you need a transfusion?". i am stunned and reply yes, "stay here for a sec" he walks away comes back a few minutes later and gives me a transfusion. "do you need anything to help you out?" well a basic pistol and maybe some food would be awesome. "hold on a sec ill be right back" guy then comes back and gives me an m4, 3 clips for it, a few bandages, can of beans, water battle, compass, map, NVG, and tells me to not equip until ive counted to 100 wishes me a great day and walks away. was seriously the most bizarre and lucky moment ever in dayz. -

New Character Spawn Idea
Fear The Amish replied to TheBeanAholic's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
yeah i have 0 problems with zombies, just need to learn how to lose them. i think current spawn is fine only thing i would change is drop flashlight add in flares/chems, and maybe an empty water bottle.
