  1. It would be nice to also state how you fixed it, since there may be more people with this problem :P

    DayZ equals Call of Duty?

    A moron because I'm one of the few people who try to be friendly to other survivors? One of the few people who communicates before making decisions?

    I know that it's an alpha, but that doesn't make it less of a game. Replace "game" with "alpha testing" and the post's context will remain the same. How can people enjoy testing an alpha and see if it's even going to be good as a standalone game when it's just another arcade shooter more than a survival game?

    This didn't happen once, it happened every single time that I think someone's friendly, every single time I try to offer someone food, drinks, blood bags and that kind of stuff. If it just happened once I wouldn't have made a post about it.
  5. Hello everyone, So... I've been playing DayZ for quite a while now and at the start I really enjoyed it, meeting other people and such, but lately it became more and more annoying. Instead of posting a long story about the many people I've encountered and who all shot me in the past week/2 weeks, I'll just say that the last time I've encountered a player who wanted to tag along with me rather than shoot me a week ago, but this bond swiftly broke up when we entered the Cherno store and got shot by a random player who didn't care to ask if we were friendly or not, nor made an escape if he did think we were bandits. My problem with this game lately is the pure fact that people think that this isn't a zombie survival game, but an Arcade Shooter, like Call of Duty, where you shoot at everything and anyone who moves. People don't care to ask or investigate if you're friendly or not, heck, even if you're alone without any gear or weapons and run into someone or even a group of 2+ people they shoot you. All this useless ruining other people their games isn't fun, maybe for the ones doing it, but surely not for the many people who get killed every few minutes after they find some gear. I finally found a sniper but due to a bug I was respawned at the coast near Elektro, which appears to be happening quite a lot lately, maybe due to logging in desynchs, but that's not part of the story. I inspected Elektro on spawned zombies and survivors, just to be sure that I could make a safe run into the town and get some food and drinks, everything went fine untill I ran back. I got back onto the hill outside the city, lost some zombies that were following me and from out of nowhere, without a warning someone starts to shoot at me and killed me while having the sniper stored safely out of sight in my Patrol Backpack. So that was one of my biggest achievements gone by someone who thought this is an Arcade Shooter. Seriously people, do you all really want this game to turn into an arcade shooter like Call of Duty where you just aimlessly fire whole ammunitions at people just to get a laugh out of it? There needs to be more teamplay, people need to stop looking at other survivors as target practicing, atleast at people who don't seem to cause any harm, like people without guns or people who are trying to lose zombies. Study the people you see, keep a distance, see how they interact with other survivors and then judge if it's usefull to kill the person or not. As a point to the side, I do understand why people will kill others near the airfields and stary sobor since those are quite high risked areas to go to with the great loot that spawns there, I've got no complaints on that side. So yeah... Long post is long... Please try to keep atleast a few of these things in mind while playing the game and make it more enjoyable for other people too.
