The game already does this. How about, if the shot lands near you, it counts as self defense?
-
You're killing someone for their beans, you're killing them to defend yourself. As of now, unless you take a bullet from a hostile player, you lose humanity. Even if the guy shoots and misses.
-
No need for insults. That accomplishes nothing.

Survivor, stop yelling "Friendly friendly" when im aiming at you!
colekern replied to grimsonfart's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Whenever I encounter another player close range, the first thing I do is point my weapon at him and tell him to drop his gun, or go for cover if he hasn't spotted me. My actions depend on what he does next, but I have a rule: don't shoot unless fired upon. -
Try using the camo clothes with a character skin from this mod: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=13978 (Don't worry, this is just fine and you won't get kicked or anything because the skins are already in the game. I use it myself.

Which game do I have to buy to play dayz?
colekern replied to greengoals's topic in New Player Discussion
I'd wait for the standalone version of DayZ (that is, you don't need any other games to run it). It will have bugfixes, better hack protection, and new features. It comes out in the next few weeks. -
No, actually I didn't love it at all. And according to the tags, this is just a troll post that has no value whatsoever. Hopefully inb4 graveyard.
-
Do you have any proof? We, sadly, can't just ban someone without proof. For all we know, it could be a false report.

Looking for a hatchet, then finding a gun.

Multiplayer Missions or Mini objectives in Standalone
colekern replied to big_t's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
In DayZ standalone, there will be more. A lot more. One of the goals of DayZ is that there will be so much to do that you would have pretty much no chance of doing it all. Once base building gets implemented, you could literally start entire towns. -
DayZMod wins PCGamer Mod Of The Year 2012

I forgot about that. So... yay for both! -
The dumbest/funniest things you've seen in DayZ?
colekern replied to deceitfulburger's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, me too. I was sad about the car. I did get a better backpack out of it though. -
The dumbest/funniest things you've seen in DayZ?
colekern replied to deceitfulburger's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's between two of my stories: 1. When I was new, me and a bandit had a stare-down (I was in the hangar, he was behind a fence, but we were both so terrified we wouldn't come out), and a guy in a zombie skin ran up and just stared at me. then he dropped. The bandit player had thought he was a zombie. Funny thing was, I saw him later, alive, looting a body. 2. I was searching for a vehicle in a town with an unpronounceable name, and then suddenly I heard an engine. I come out to see who was taking the car, only to see that this guy had managed to drive the car straight a telephone pole. Then it blew up. -
I've gotta say no, because a lot of people will get that skin just because it looks awesome.
-
Then it really is a glitch. I'm not sure what's causing it. Try switching servers. That's the only thing I can think of.
-
I can't tell if this is a joke or not. Either way, watch the attitude. You're probably not waiting for the animation to complete. It's a very long animation.

always shot on sight - what am i doing wrong?
colekern replied to Rocknrolla (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If you really want to have a conversation with a player, make sure you stay away from Cherno, Electro, the Northwest airfield, and Stary Sobor. Try the Bolota airfield. Stay behind cover, and make sure you don't say anything that might send a false hint that you want to kill him. Don't be sarcastic or try to be funny unless the other guy is nice first (sarcasm, in my experience, is a common trait in banditry). That's my checklist, and it works for me. -
CD key Been Stolen? And now it is different?
colekern replied to agoney's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Have you downloaded any DayZ optimizer programs. -
CD key Been Stolen? And now it is different?
colekern replied to agoney's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You went to a non-battleye server? Sounds fishy. It looks like you got your CD key stolen by downloading either a hack (this seems likely, considering you tried to joining a non BE server), or by downloading a "DayZ optimizer" program. -
Multiplayer Missions or Mini objectives in Standalone
colekern replied to big_t's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
No. No side missions. In DayZ, you write the story, not side missions. -
A base building mechanic, which is already announced will help with KOS. But I do like the Hundreds of zombies idea thing.
-
The reason the zombies appear to be so fast is because it's a bug. In a recent interview with Matt Lightfoot, a developer of DayZ, he said that it was planned to increase zombie speed.

Does sidechat ruin anyone elses game?
colekern replied to bad_mojo (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I honestly don't like it. -
Oh heck yes.
-
Most likely. Also, it would be smart to wait for the full standalone version. You can see the changes here: http://dayzdev.tumblr.com/
