Sorry but what the fuck is "bunny hopping"? I have heard of server hopping before, but no idea what this is. Sounds like some 10 year old care bear rendition of something.

Used a gun cleaning kit on my pristine M4 for the first time. Checked the gun after and it was worn. I am wondering if the cleaning kit reduces the overall damage of the combined attachments or if this is a bug. Has anyone else experienced this? If it can be duplicated, I can document it in the proper section for the devs. Thanks,

bite the bullet and get yourself used to being in harms way. Go hunt bandits or help new players. I was actually just playing in Berezino saw a guy spawn with a shovel, he didn't seem like a threat so we chatted for a minute I dropped a Magnum and a few dozen bullets for him as all he had was a shovel and he then had me open a can of tuna for him. We went our separate ways. Sometimes it gets lonely and the guy seemed desperate so it is fun to help people in game. Maybe you should start doing that?

Nothing better than sprinting like a retard in dayz: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUD80fnceKA

They also dont see you if you hide in the back of the hangers on the airstrips. I also occasionally sit in the top areas of the barraks above the stairs and shoot them in the back, or wait behind the bunk beds in the room with the doors closed, light them up as they enter with my magnum.

I normally just find a good spot in the high spawn areas and do sweeps, and wait for any potentials to pop out. I have killed a good number of players doing this and geared out typically just by being patient and waiting for them rather than hopping myself. It is rewarding and you feel like you are teaching them a lesson from cleaning out all the spawns. If I can give any advice it would be to shoot them on sight - these guys will do the same if they see you.

I believe so, it was in one of those pubs/cafe places with the tables and bar on the floor. Although it may have been dropped by someone because I recall it been very damaged.

Bets he comes back with a "That's it Im KoSing now." thread. Being a care bear in the game doesn't always pay. It is a genuine risk everytime you have an interaction with someone else you dont know and equally exciting if they are nice, or have sinister intentions, no different than yourself. Hindering KoS in any way and it will muck up the game.

wouldnt know I havent tried that. Try telling the OP that. /Thread

it was a troll. Also, what the fuck is a "Dee Zed"

Player built bases are encouraged and the mod even had tent cities built by players that could be looted. Source: I used to loot them. I dont really understand the purpose of the OPs main post.

Long range scopes are nearly basically all over the place. I have found optics and LRS in town multiple times.

Grass is an integral part of the game and very important for sniping from cover. If you remove grass or "flatten it in your view shot" you open yourself up to being spotted. Very bad idea. This won't happen.

If you cant manage to get off the beach you really suck at this game. I have never been killed in the spawn since I purchased the standalone a month ago.

This wont stop anything. Nor did their attempt to reduce loot spawns as people will simply server hop more and more and it will actually create MORE people KoSing out of necessity. Use your head.

The game has always been like this. And by the sounds of it you startled them.

Sarcasm aside OP, a lot of us are in the same boat. I logged in last night found I had gear from 2 weeks ago on some servers, while I was naked on others. Every server I joined was pitch black night time. What did I do? Logged out and did something else. The devs will or do realize what is going on, it is plastered all over the forums and visibly noted in game. Without sounding redundant, we are in the early "test" phases of the Standalone and we should embrace it as such. You should feel proud to have contributed this early on, you are assisting in the success of this community and game. We are all pioneers here, whether you are a dev or a bambi just starting out; everyone contributes something (an update, a bug fix, a bandit story encounter). But quitting posts are passive aggressive and counter productive. We are all playing the same game here, it boils down to HOW you choose to play it.

This 100%. I think eventually it will be encouraged for groups/clans to take over some areas, booby trap them etc to keep the best spawn points to themselves.

Why announce it though? Are you important here?

Terrible idea. That shitty game WarZ did that. All people did was camp the gates and wait for people to leave. If you think the beaches in the game were bad...that would be terrible. Bad idea.

And this kids, is why DayZ SA is awesome.

People do this already. They also used to use gun shot noises and helicopter sounds. I think it's funny as a diversion and to spook other players.

I do this often for the simple fact if someone is following me I will notice it and I will know what houses/areas I have hit in a fresh area. +1 beans for you good sir.
