server owners are REVERTING because the game is so broken in 1.7.1.2+

Players in the last 24h seems to be dropping too. Obv penalties for PK'ing is not the way to go, not disagreeing with you there.

Well the whole northern/western boundary is pretty much scoured for camps on popular servers with vehicles. The only advice I can give you is to think not just how far the camp is from some point of interest, but whether it's *between* two points of interest, ie. could you think of a scenario for some one to stumble onto the camp while going from A to B.

(a) no they're not' date=' check out some other mods/addons (b) Arma devs are clearly working overtime for the sake of DayZ, fixing bugs, etc. © still doesn't make fanboys DEFENDING it any less fucking stupid. This might come as a shock to you, but most people I know play DayZ *despite* the fact that it's on ArmA2. Because sandbox PvP is so fucking rare on the market, that people will eat it any way they can get it. And some of the features that accidentally made it into DayZ, like anti-zerg measures, make for great gameplay -- compared with many other sandbox PvP games that are dominated by zergs. Also note that you're one of those idiots in © who defend the shitty parts of the game b/c "it's a mil sim it's supposed to be that way."

Maybe tell us where your old camps were and we can tell you how "clever" they were? My camp isn't on a particularly populated server but we never once had it raided. Once or twice we encountered a random close by but that's about it. If you're putting your camp on the edge of the map, you're not being clever.

It's also immensely fun to shoot some one who's being chased by zeds. He's bleeding but can't bandage b/c he's being chased by zeds. I don't particularly search out opportunities to grief people, but if something is comical in and of itself (like shooting some one in the leg while he's trying to outrun a pack of zombies), his grief won't even come into my decision-making process. I've definitely seen griefing explode though, now that new spawns have no guns. Coast is littered with corpses. Some good loot to be had by nicking snipers in the back.

The *best* part is people defending shit that obviously is not working as intended. Oh you can't aim/turn right while in a doorway? REALISM GUY GET USED TO IT. Oh you jumped down 3 steps and broke your legs? ARMA IS ABOUT REALISM, TRY JUMPING DOWN 3 STEPS WITH 100LBS IRL. Oh you crawled through a doorway and it made you stand up and get zombie aggro? YOU SHOULD'VE KNOWN, THIS GAME IS HARD SUCK IT UP LOL. Oh you have to stand still for 3 seconds to change your weapons, stand up from prone, throw a grenade longer than 10ft, etc? DUDE IT'S MILSIM YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOUR WEAPON AND KEEP MOVING OBVIOUSLY GO PLAY COD. The UI for using doors, ladders, etc, is the most abhorrent thing to ever hit the gaming industry? JUST GET USED TO IT IT'S ARMA. Arma has some of the most RETARDED people I've seen on the internet. Ever.

You've encountered the fanboy. They're more common here than in other corners of the internet, and infinitely more annoying since the game is truly buggy as all fuck (not DayZ, ARMA). Unfortunately, the internet offers an equal voice to stupid people -- and mods won't ban fanboys, they think it's bad for business -- just something you're going to have to live with.

@warbo201: are you mentally retarded? Dumbest advice I've heard yet.

If you're the guy defending environmental damage or the UI in DayZ, you are a fanboy. Nothing you say is valid.

You can already throw tin cans, empty whiskey bottles, etc. People who don't know what they're talking about need to STOP FUCKING POSTING.

Very stupid imo. Did people link CHKilroy vids to their friends to get them to buy the game? Sure. Would they have linked another video instead if CHKilroy didn't exist? Obviously. I started playing this game after hearing about it from a couple of clans that I've played with in the past (Kill Cult, Lords of Death, etc). I then roped my clan into it. Yes I linked Days Ahead, but I could have linked Sidestrafe or anyone else. If anything CHKilroy should be thanking ROCKET for his surge of subscriptions. I think we can thank CHKilroy for the PvE players crying about bandits. Playing with randoms is different than playing with people you know??? REALLY??? Apparently that's news to PvE players.

Why is that? I'd rather have their ammo. Loving how everyone pretends this patch somehow created teamwork between armed strangers. Reality: new spawns with flashlights pretend to roll together, each hoping the other takes aggro while they loot the first gun and go on with the game.

Lucky you found a tree? More like lucky there was no player around to dome you in the head while you were being an idiot.

It appealed to the sandbox crowd. The game was never very "difficult" imo (PvP aside obv).
