How do you control your DayZ Rage?

[a_casual_banana 38]

Sigh explosively and look at the death screen for a few seconds.

Then I respawn and begin again.

[Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521]

I will admit very little of my rage is aimed toward the game itself, my PC usually gets 90% of the rage.. example: driving like the stig then suddenly PC freezes.... returns to find myself buried half way into a building...

[Mr Nasty 1023]

Smoke weed...

This. It cures rages of all forms not limited to DayZ.

[Jeff the killer 32]

I smile wait and remember what a wise man once told me. "if you wait long enough by a river the bodies of your enemys will come floating down"

[Sutinen 635]

Punching or throwing something works. Once I hit a pen trough my leather chair.

Speaking of rage, try this yourselves:

At the current patch, try sprinting in circles on a road. Only works on a road, can't be grass or anything else like that. You will probably notice that you just attracted all the zombies from +100 meters, even those what were looking the complete opposite way.

[The Stoned Wolf 491]

I generally chug all the real-life Mountain Dews that I can, knowing I'll never find them in DayZ T__T.

[RIGHTLY 87]

I used to rage at DayZ, but now I don't play as often, and when I do, I'm just fart assing around being a dick to people, so I don't care if I die.

Now.... Racing games are games that I CANT STAND. I like racing games, especially Mid Night Club Dub Edition REMIX! (dramatic echo) but when I'm about to win and one of the AI passes me, or, even worse, I crash right next to the fucking finish line and as I desperately try to get to the finish line the rest of the fucking racers that I've been 200 metres in front of the whole race passes me, I tend to try and eat my controller in a blind rage, then I cry in the shower. God, I must have lost 20 IQ points from finishing that game...

When I was 12 I played Halo 3 on the Xbox ALL THE TIME, and yes, I was one of the whiny 12 year olds. Looking back on it I feel like the biggest idiot in the world. Every time I died I would accuse the killer of being a hacker or call them a camping noob, Energy Sword noob, Shotgun noob, Rocket Launcher noob, and any other type of noob attributed to Halo. God I really shouldn't have had a mic back then. All those poor people I annoyed. Now if I'm playing Halo I use all the tactics I used to hate to win the god damn game instead of complaining about it.

Punch myself in the dick and take five shots of jameson its punishment for screwing up.

[smore98 225]

Nothing...

...no really, I don't give a fuck.

Why. Should I be?

I just fucking laugh.

There's nothing wrong with THAT!

NOPE, NOT ONE BIT.

I AIN'T EVEN MAD.

NOT BY A DECIMAL OR FRACTION.

...

WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!?

Smoke, drink, get agitated in my chair, start sweating out, eyelid starts ticking..hands start shakin'.. and thats just at the loading screen.

[Penny Sue 77]

It's a shame these new fancy monitors can't take a punch like their old CRT counterparts =(

[major.skrewup@gmail.com 177]

All i am wondering is how do you recover from such a blind rage in the first place,

I beat my wife and kids

---

out of the times I've died 3 have been from hacks, which I shrug off... now I stick to private hives and this hasnt happened in a private hive server *touch wood*

maybe 3-4 I've lost a fire fight, which is fair enough. no rage there cos it was fun while it lasted.

the rest of the times its been me making a mistake,

like once when I had heli'd myself to the top of the international hotel to cover the town, I went to press B for binocs but pressed V and vaulted to my death or when I was ghillied up in the grass and took out 3/4 squad with my dmr and didnt check the area well enough before I ran to the bodies to loot... again no rage.

if a game is getting you upset enough to bring it up in a topic maybe u should take a long break from said game... l2relax.

woooooosaaaaa that anger away

[Tarkastio 38]

It usually involves self inflicted pain and a facedesk.

After a while I kind of just lose all sense of caring. Like that time I used my only heli I've ever had to ram a guy's car.

[Maca (DayZ) 769]

Stress balls and a nice chilled bottle of Jager.

and If that dosn't work I've a 6 foot blowup bottle of Jager i can just attack and take all my rage out on...

[Occy 7]

I use to get Angry when I died in DayZ. But after figuring out how to gear up fast, it isn't a big deal really.

Die?

-Head to a Major City.

-Go to the Fire House

-Go to the Store

-Go to the School/Office

Takes about 15-20 min.

[Theweirdone 29]

Only time I get mad is when I'm playing with my friend and he screws up royally, which only happens when he's tired as hell.

Example: One time me and him were fixing up a car, and this dude starts opening fire on me, I tell him to be quiet and just let me die cause at this point I was a goner. He starts shooting at... something. So the shooter knew where he was and managed to shoot him and he didn't notice. Later he tells me he thought the a rock was my shooter (*Facepalm*). lol I can't even really begin to say how much better he is at shooters then me as well, so it's like I'm playing with this amazing gamer and we both coordinate well, then the next second I feel like I'm playing a noob.

[DanielTy88 133]

Revenge is sweet.

[SkrappyLoc 0]

I don't care at all if I die. Not even by hackers.

[dallas 5195]

I bottle it all up inside or post in the WarZ thread.

[Inception. 9443]

The only particular "JESUS CHRIST *insert every swear word into the dictionary*" moment(s) that I have is when my internet feels like screwing me over.

Recently I had a camp that consisted of a URAL, tents, GAZ, Offroad, UAZ, V3S, etc...as well as every single weapon in the game [multiple, actually] and multiple of every item in the game. I was going good as a trader until...the server shut down! Didn't really bother me. I then died to a hacker a few dies after and thus had to start from scratch...didn't really bother me. I went and fixed up an offroad with the help of my sexy bicycle and pretty much gained everything back that I lost from that hacker attack [M249 SAW, DMR, M9SD, GPS NVGS Rangefinder--radio as well!--, ghillie suit, over 1000 zombie kills...etc].

Death doesn't bother me. It is merely a natural part of the game. I can damn well bet that I've lost if not as much, more items, weapons, vehicles and stats than almost anyone who plays this game. I can damn well bet that I have raged less than half of the players, too.

Try Forza games.. I was on a 30 lap race on a 24 km track, which takes about 1.30 hours to complete. Then, just as I was about to complete the race, I accidentally spin and damage my whole car. Fun times.

[tonkin97 22]

masterbation

[kik 8]

i used to rage everytime i got killed first time was at 2am when i got sniped in the middle of nowere missus was not at all impressed.

now i just laugh not worth getting annoyed over it only takes 30-40 minutes and then it's back to whatever shnanighans we were up to before.

[Faceman Peck 93]

Right this one is kinda simple. Most of us have been there, just minding our own business and something totally out of the blue goes wrong, que mindless arm flailing and my monitor receiving more abuse than a traffic warden at a race track.

All i am wondering is how do you recover from such a blind rage in the first place, perhaps you walk away? have a smoke or grab a beer? I for one tend to combo all 3 of the above in one manouver to the fridge or just chill back to some music, more beats the better!

So come on share your stress release plans with us all... maybe it may save a monitor in the near future.. who knows?

This being a nice little bouncy tune to listen too (i just imagine me stomping on the bandits head in time to the beat) ahhh bliss!

If I die there's no rage....just smoke some tree,go rekit and send their ass to hell with a .50 cal round

[Bludy 324]

i spray some blasphemy and then i'm ok..
