  1. I believe most are shoot on sight. Its just the scary nature of the game. Permadeath does things to a gamer lol. For me, I look at it differently. Finding and teaming up with someone is an added challenge upping the difficulty level. I could play some scripted, linear game like Diablo3 where I can buy my gear and finish the game in no time but make our own story here and can play our own rules. :) Then again, a friendly like myself won't be trusted by most. But I enjoy meeting new players from around the world and chatting while we find some beans together. It makes my experience all the better.
  2. Never seen so many team up! Ha. Maybe DayZ will add super zombies one day and everyone will team up? Ah that would be a happy day.
  3. Sux to be him. Pick another server? I tend to move server to server until I find a good one. If something horrible happens I do it again. Been good for ages though. What servers? Can we ask that here? :P GL

    Unfair Unconsciousness

    Your unconscious timer will reset if you leave the game and come back. You need to stay online and wait for it to go away. If its 5min, you wait 3 then log out. When you come back it will be 5 again.

    Is this game dying?

    Well from the people I know and play with in DayZ, many leave to play other games. Its not that they hate the game or anything, they like it. But being in Alpha it gets annoying after a while. Its more like they just don't play as much rather then play all the time. We are all like that now. We did play the other night but out of the 5 of us, 4 left to play War of Flowers or something (?). I eventually logged out as I was sick of running for ages lol. For me, Iv been playing Orcs Must Die and Diablo3 again (new patch released). And if Im not doing that Im in Photoshop drawing stuff. Not much time for DayZ these days. Many hackers have been banned as well. Once DayZ fixes a lot of issues or even hits standalone or Beta, we would be back in a second.

    Clucking idiots

    If you don't like a post please don't reply. Its just feeding the thread. B) My brother and I come across some crazy bugs from time to time. But we understand its a free game and in alpha so yes, the game can and will have bugs to the point of annoying. We don't rage about it although we may complain but its best to just report it and hope the fix is in the next patch. For me, I expect to die at any moment for whatever reason. Its just how it is unfortunately and when things go really bad, my brother and I will log out and play Orks Must Die 2. So I guess having a backup plan works rather well to remove the rage.

    Weird Sound?

    oops.

    Bandit skin is awesome

    Be grateful Im not Rocket. I would make bandits have a big shlong hanging from their forheads. The more kills you got the bigger it got. Just say'n. :P

    Why I kill unarmed players

    its just an example, if not a powerful one. Dayz gamers will kill anyone anytime for no reason then to not die and keep their loot (fair enough) but I hear some rather bad examples given why they do it. Just an opinion, nothing harsh.

    Why I kill unarmed players

    My 2 cents (some scary people here).... 1. Playing Solo Less risk in dieing Carry less supplies Unable to heal as easy No communication with others Vehicle repair far slower Traveling can be tedious 2. Co-Op Very high risk game-play Can carry more Heal easier Kill easier High stress game-play (chance to get back stabbed) Very high reward game-play Someone to talk too Repair vehicles quicker Can take a long time to meet up with friends Im still a bit of a noob but I far enjoy co-op more then solo. Solo is ok at the start to just run into a city and gear up but slowly starts to become boring. With co-op, I love having a good chat and plan our next move. Yeah, the risks are high but if you have been playing as long as I have (games in general), you find a challenge in a game and you try to beat it. Games are about risk and if you don't take those risks then whats the point? I find it very disappointing that today's gamers will see 'risk' and avoid it to the point of killing new players. Not only that, but they state a "positive" reason for doing it which "makes it ok". Hitler made killing Jews the "right thing to do". Maybe I have a weird way of looking at things? Gamers are gamers and I want to play with them. Its a shame so many these days don't see it that way.

    Hackers, and the state of the standalone game?

    Rocket made DayZ for the joy of it. Not to make a billion dollars and suck every penny from gamers with the same old repetitive games. Some appreciation is in order, especially since the mod is free. Im sure you had some fun from it otherwise you wouldnt be here. Hackers are indeed an issue but I will keep moving server until I find a good one. It seems to work.
  12. Iv recently noticed the in game message about hackers getting banned. The server I have been playing on last few weeks was getting hacked something horrible however last night with the new messages it was actually issue free (for me anyway). I actually got to gear up really well for the first time. Maybe its luck? I then went to another server with my brother and again, no issues. Hmm. ;) Anyway, no matter the server you can have issues. Both have their negatives and positives.
  13. They can't have new skins apparently. Im a noob still but found that out rather quickly. Now its all male characters from here on. Oh well. You seem to have my luck OP. Well, when a male character anyway :)

    Best Hacker of All Time... Scariest Moment Ever.

    Great thread. If only hackers could be more imaginative like that they wouldn't be so hated.
  15. OoieGooie

    hackers...do u guys feel the same

    My brother and I have moved to other games (currently Orks must die 2). Its a shame cause we like Dayz. We don't like server wide kills.
  16. OoieGooie

    I'm screwed!

    Yep. If you need to go to dinner, watch tv or whatever, leave your game running. I think some servers allow you to hit ESC then chose an option to kill yourself. Can't think of the name. Its near the Abort\Restart option.

    taking out a whole squad by myself :D

    Well I thought it was entertaining. No teleporting or flying buses! Although flying buses is kinda cool. I got my first kill last week. Id have 2 but the guy logged out. Oh well. Pew pew!

    Just died to my first god-mode hacker.

    Although I don't mind dieing to a hacker most times, I'm just afriad they're going to push people away from the game. This is not the type of game you want cheaters. On the note of funny stories, I saw something falling out of the sky above Elek. Turned out to me lots and lots of busses floating down on parachutes then exploding. This went on for ages. If a bus was on the ground and you opened it you died. Same server we had a server kill twice (everyone died). I'd say thats the worst hack. The server went from 20 people to 4 after the 2nd server kill. My brother and I have been playing other stuff of late. Just sick of losing everything and restarting due to cheaters.

    Something that nobody understands about DayZ

    I personally like how they slow down in a building. Otherwise they need new AI. As the zombie AI is, its horrible, animation is horrible and I am looking forward to future zombie updates. They still seem to kill me sometimes though. :P

    Gay Hacker strikes again FML

    Bad post or not the OP has a point. My brother and I (and everyone on the server) where mass killed multiple times. Nearly everyone eventually left followed by my bro and I. We're currently looking for another game to play. This issue, alpha or not, needs to be addressed. New players lose interest quickly and old players get sick of it. This is not the type of game where you want people cheating.
  21. OP's thread might not be original but its a well written post and lets the devs know what they want. A positive voice is not a bad thing. You don't have to post here. As a fairly new player, I too have been killed by hackers. Only a few as far as I know but still, its rather annoying and it makes you want to just go and play another game. Whats the point of trying to survive when cheaters kill you? Its pointless! (Then again I seem to enjoy starting from scratch). More content is a good thing. Priceless seems either immature or a troll to state that the game doesn't need it. The game has such a large world you could add some very nice features. Even games like WoW, huge in their size, are always getting new content. Players eventually get bored of any game so why not expand? I'd love to hear what idea's the players have. The OP however has played the game far more then myself and sometimes its good to have a break. From what I read however, it feels like its almost pointless to gain food, water, weapons etc etc as it will only get taken from you from hackers. If thats the case, its very dissapointing and a little heart breaking.

    OMG STOP HACKING I WANNA QUIT-

    I put 4 shots into a player with a handgun and they still killed me with an axe. sigh. One day ill get to kill a player. One day.
  23. OoieGooie

    Thoughts on players using hacked weapons?

    This sort of griefing can turn away new players and if you like this game, its the worst thing to do. We need people to like the game and being an alpha game that looks like something made 10 years ago its tough enough. This isnt Teamfort2 and some people act like it is.

    A very cool story!

    I joined a server the other night and all of Elektra was aflame. Also a big smoke stack in the middle. Looked like a nuke went off. Was rather scary actually.
