We NEED some way to identify heros and bandits.

Wow, wow now. That guy is obviously an expert, i'd like to hear from the genius who wrote that amazing post. This is my opportunity to expand my knowledge. -

I have encountered many friendly groups wearing camo and i have heard many forum posts about groups who do only vigilante work. Search the forums, just about everyone wears camo. "i hope you have good information and judge of character that you didnt kill innocents" Yes, this is exactly the problem, there is no way to know forcing players to spend hours and hours in a search to possibly witness a murder that wasn't for sure self defense. It's all i do and its fucking damn near impossible to do without wanting to kill yourself out of boredom. If im hunting bandits im a bandit? Wha? im a vigilante who hunts murderers and i don't shoot unless people shoot at me. 3. How would they have enhanced hearing and smell? I don't see why they would and i hope they don't because difficult zombie AI combined with realistic sneaking mechanics could be very rewarding and believable, which is important to immersion, it would support our innate human instincts and in all likelihood "feel" right. Having zombie with super hearing would be annoying imo, like the Epoch servers i've tried, which put me off from playing the mod since it was so unbelievable to me. I've sprinted almost silently before, for example. -

I Think I'm Too Trusting And Nice.
libertine replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
So realistic and authentic! WOW! -
If have to dress like that not to be kos'ed by other non-bandits while up high in Cherno protecting other survivors, well, i'll just keep on getting killed then.

I was thinking having their hands cut off would be better, keeping them from using the computer. Almost getting to the point where it seems appropriate.

Im a friendly player who plays as a vigilante, rarely killing anyone when i solo, but i'd rather have full on PVP with military vs. survivor factions. I don't get the friendly stuff as things are now really as there are not enough "antagonists" in the game as it is and giving players food and stuff sort of takes away from the only other meaningful aspect of the game a little bit IMO which is the survival aspect.

Combat Logging Will Increase With Update: Log Out Timers
libertine replied to Solopopo's topic in General Discussion
I hope its 2 minutes or more on most servers. -
woooopppps

:facepalm: The "the story is your own story" answer. Not sure about back story, but in terms of fleshing the world out in a cool way, bringing in some more mystery, strange happenings, an unknown dangerous military/gov/scientific presence, etc, would be very welcome to experienced players i would think. Chernerus needs a little more creepiness IMO. To do that, i think you would need a little hint of a back story or "lore".

Too big for 40 players, during the daytime at least.

The pantsless Vietnam is what is absurd. I don't want goofy powerful +easy to use sniper rifles either. -

Sad that i can't see that? I have 250 hour in SA. I have 6 times that at least in the mod. I spent most of my time in Origins, which had bandit skins. The mod had bandit skins.... I think i know wtf i want and wtf i don't want thanks... The fact is that the way i play would PERSONALLY be enhanced if there was a small, faded armband for murderers and people who Please, for the love of the gods try playing solo as a vigilante, only engaging people you can identify as 100% positive bandit/murderer and realistically, as if you care greatly about your life and also the lives of others, at least more so than an avatar in the game. That is how i get my immersion. -
Anything camo because that is the best way to hide from zombies who's vision is based on human sight and so is the sight of human KOS'ers, smart people using camo are generally nicer and level headed than ignorant people, also empathy is learned and is why the poor give more of a % of their income to others. My theory anyway, tyvm.

Didn't you see "/dumbass posts" up there? Thats part of what this thread is about. Giving players who play realistically more opportunities to get some gun play and kill murderers. -

You can design an identification system that supports all those emotions still, but gives vigilante players who only target 100% positive bandit I.Ds something to shoot at more often and give pure survivalist PvE leaning players more of a chance to have more REALISTICALLY friendly encounters with other survivalists. -

/dumbass posts How do you identify bandits? How many fucking people will keep up this retarded claim that they know who bandits are. My main mode of play is vigilante and i can tell you that you go for hours and hours and hours between actual 100% positive bandit identifications, perhaps unless you want to engage in the goofy dumbass battles on the coast which have almost nothing to do with a cool apocalypse experience. -
Is this POS on these forums?

Do New Players Not Understand How Hard Core This Shit Is?

Forgot pebbles in the road, low hanging branches and strong opposing winds. All, very VERY dangerous. -

No, were definitely not alone. Look at how popular the mod was, and i never encountered a server that didn't use them. Only during the beginning period where Rocket took them out as an experiment were they not there, then they were back in. Only a small fraction of the player base post here it is said and IMO not many people like to get involved in discussions at page 28. -
Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaa no. Orange raincoats say "IM OVER HERE! SHOT HERE IF YOU A BANDIT, BORED PLAYER, I SURPRISED YOU, ETC.!" "NO, NO, IM OVER HERE, YA, I CHANGED POSITIONS, SHOOT HERE FROM NOW ON, TILL I MOVE AGAIN!!" "BUT DON'T WORRY, IF I MOVE AGAIN ILL UPDATE YOU WITH MY EYE BLINDING ORANGE RAINCOAT...!"

Any piece of clothing you associate with bandits?
libertine replied to Mays (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Yep, kill anything protecting himself from the others KOS'ers and zombies. Great thinking. Oh, and keep on killing me in my camo gear/M4/scoped Mosin while protecting other survivors in Cherno, etc. Great job. FANTASTIC WORK SHERLOCK HOLMES -

As it is, it is a fable. Being that the only violence in this game that is semi-realistic is when people surprise come up on each other and surprise each other, it already is completely improbable, fake reality. Its a retarded, pantsless WW2 out there... Giving just a simple small faded red armband to those to constantly kill others not having the armband who are survivors or vigilantes will make the violence make sense if they say that the armband designates those to be part of some loose group of people whos job it is IS to kill people for some valid, but questionable reason, so as not to label them as to be evil necessarily. -
Thats what i usually do but after many many 4+ hour walks not seeing a single other person, the thought of going inland again is not a pleasant one.

No, look at photos of friendly clans, they're all wearing camo. I wear camo and i play a vigilante, hunting bandits. Thats why this fucking system we have now is so damn limited, because if you see me up high in Cherno somewhere with a scoped Mosin, trying to protect a survivor making his way through the city, your going to think im a bandit and kill me and possibly put an end to a 10+ hour loot run right then and there. Just about everyone wears camo if they can. Furthermore. If you were stuck in this situation for real, and the zombies were very seriously dangerous and you had to sneak into towns to get food where zombies were, you would wear camo too because ZOMBIE VISION = HUMAN VISION. CAMO WORKS.
