this is already the case. wild exaggerations or using your own personal playstyle/experiences as the basis for an entire community with hundreds of thousands of players is not going to further any suggestions you want to present. Tell me...When was the last time you were approached with friendly intentions? 90% of encounters in DayZ boil down to either shooting or total avoidance. Bandits engage' date=' and survivors hide. That's not interaction. That's rampant paranoia because there's no benefit to being friendly. Here's to hoping that changes. [/quote'] I will do everything in my power to stop that from changing!!!

ewwww. i wish not only EVERY encounter was gunfights, but with better server stability 150 people per server so there would be MORE encouncters!!!!

Those guys.... were SOOOOO bad at aiming. The guy with the Mk48 (i didnt watch whole vid.. was it a 240 or 249) sucks. I can consistently take out targets at 300-500 meters with a saw OR 240/mk48. Either way, good reaction and response on your guys part. They Fed up and you guys took advantage of it in the right way!

it doesn't matter the game. Players want to kill shit. Heck EVEN IN Amnesia the dark decent, a game where you can't kill. People found how to Glitch the monsters with objects and make them fall of cliffs.

All i can say is, no matter how big the group. I will still sniper you from 800 meters with my L85 thermal. and when zeds come, I will lay down the law with my saw. BANDIT TILL THE BITTER END

38 before i encountered a guy with invincibility. 2 boxes of mk48 and he just sits there lulling the kills me.

they usually spawn in specific areas that might be randomized through servers. Usually NW area though sometimes down south abour a kilo from coast (rare) and often near berizino. THe best way is hunt is to log on around NW airfield, Dachina, or Stary. and do a 2km sweep around each of these places. Mark every helo spot you got. I am to the point, I rarely find a helo not on one of my marked spots. Helo hunting is actually easier and safer IMO and provides btter gear than Stary or NW or any other mil spawn.

Was hoping this was a thread with someone asking for a blood trans. I was gona make some joke about accurately giving them max blood at 800 meters.

I have one, and the clan I roll with has 5. It is not really that rare. Some days I find more L85's than I do DMRs at helos. I've seen roughly 15-20 so far since helos got fixed on all servers. Btw press "N" while zoomed to cycle through NV and TM. Press + to zoom in (cant right click) and - to zoom back out. Gun zeroes UP TO 800 press PG up and PG down. This honestly will be the best gun when the ammo tracker patch comes out since it uses stanag. (does it use 5.56 ak? i killed a guy who had this with 5.56 ak but no stanag... was he an idiot or did his mags glitch or can you use the ak74 mags?)

Well what is wrong for playing the game just to kill? And what are you to say that Bandits HAVE to be people who only survive by any means necessary. First off why do people say CoD junkies? You realize there are more logged players on BF3 than CoD these days? So isn't it BF3 junkies... and isn't that slightly more redeemable than CoD? I mean i hate CoD love BF and Arma. Eitherway this is a lame excuse, someone's like of a certain game shouldn't matter Why do I personally play Dayz? I enjoy the thrill of the hunt. There is NO OTHER game on earth (not even the main Arma 2 game) that allows me to HUNT players on a scale and with the mechanics that are included in Dayz. I have learned to notice when and where zeds spawn. Where they wander. What loot spawns where and if something that doesn't belong is there. Animal spawns often or not in certain areas? Dead zeds? Which way were they running ect... Density of people in certain areas. Where do people set camp, how many use that camp and when do they log on. It's like they say, there is no hunting like hunting a human. Something that can fight back makes it super fun. I also believe that as this game is based on a shooter and people that play shooters love hunting other players..... yes, 90% of the people will be hostile. If anything that should make it FUNNER for the 10%. You have a super threatening world that forces you to sneak and always watch over your back game. Rather than a hold your hand lets group up and shoot zeds in doorways cuz that somehow is hard and makes me hard game.

I disagree with non PVP servers for one main reason: It allows you to acquire uber loot with a very minimized risk when compared to normal servers. Zeds really are no trouble. If your in a town or any mil areas you run to building kill all loot rinse repeat. If you find helo crash, stay 200-300 meters out depending on your gun and shoot the zeds without aggro. I don't think zeds were ever meant to be the main antagonists of this game. I think players were, but zeds set the mood as well as provide an extra thing to watch out for while fighting other players. Eitherway, if there are non-pvp servers, it is not fair that they can have a safer experience than all of us. Maybe if they love their pve so much, don't let them get military loot. There is no reason to have mil guns than to kill players anyways.

I would fight for survival of friends and family. I would forgo all morals so that my friends and family wouldn't have to. This means I would KILL if i had to.

So here I am hunting some nublits with my 7 boxes of 240 ammo and NVGs and guess what? Some 4 idiots decide driving with headlights on at night bear stary (should be using nvgs to drive) is a smart idea. I lay down in grass ahead of them as they come towards stary over a hill. I open fire instantly destroying the tires. I shoot into the vehicle killing one i think (maybe he logged not sure). The other 3 get out and I gun one down. 1 other runs to my left, another hides behind the car. I move so that they shoot at where they THINK i am (where my flash was), then I gun down the other 2. Priceless. I hide all bodies full of M4ccos and other nice things then blow up the car. I dont loot anything, cuz im too awesome and they dont need their loot XD MUAHAHHAHA

M9 rl sucks. the FN fal is great, but of couse the M14 dot is better... it is an M14 lol

I DO know that sometimes with our group we have thermals dmrs and 50's we will spot someone with the thermals even if it is just a smal portion then we start pounding the building with the 50s where we assume the person would run depending on the building. We actually get quite a few kills that way. Though if they are doing ACCURATE fire, that might be something different. Though it they just fired a ton through the walls, thats just the 50's having fun.

yes and it was annoying because sometimes you join a wrong server and need leave to rejoin the correct one, or the server you join is way laggy so you want to choose a better one, or its night and you want a better one, or when you join you realize for any number of reasons you need to exit and relaunch game to fix any number of problems ect ect. basically it hurt people more than it helped against hoppers. fix should be 20 second countdown where you are unable to move or else the countdown restarts. I hate to use the example of world of warcraft cuz that game sucks but like their system. When you log out, it counts down and you are able to break the countdown by moving or doing actions if you feel threatened, but to log out you need to sit still and not take any actions for X amount of time.

Willing to risk all those days spent gathering the best gear evar? I am willing to accept challenges for clan battles. Bring all your dudes, I honestly don't care how many as long as our dudes can fit in a server with you. And lets battle it out for the beans somewhere XD. The prize is the entire other teams loot. NO DCer's. We will be playing on a server that bans DCer's and we will screen cap any DCer's. We expect you to show us the same "courtesy" we will be showing you by not pussin out. Also no hacking. We will be videoing and playing on a server that is good at catching hackers. All challenges will be discussed over private chat. Including Time, Location ect.

Dis - No shit. I play Arma 2 also. Why would I want to play that one? Dayz allows me to destroy peoples Dayz of work. Plus more people play Dayz. Sup - Pvt message me, lets roll! Wub - Play dayz like it's Arma? What are you implying? That since there are zombies I should avoid playing tactically or enjoying killing other players because survival and zeds take presidence? You confuse me. I think this place is crawling with halfwits who think anyone who doesn't view or do things as they do are somehow less intelligent. You must have so much experience bro, tell me how i should play this game for my own personal enjoyment.

Yes. Sometimes. Never. Never have. It is. Nope. I am. No shit. You better be.

Can't fraps. XD I drop from 30-40 frames to 7 if i fraps.

So I got this uber L85 from a helo crash with NVG and Heat scope and decide to go camp noobs that have only flashlights painkillers and bandages on the shore just for the pure fun of having my murder count go up.. Then they have to come post on the forums complaining... I mean all I did was force them to respawn at a different location. Really guys??!?!?
