Siberian (DayZ) 527 Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) You realize this is a first person shooter. You are supposed to shoot other people.I don't understand why people would enjoy this.its ok, i dont expect you to understand..ps this isnt a FPS, its actualy a sandbox title.. thats why you dont understand why some people can enjoy this game just fine without PVP..hell i've been doing it for months and months on reg. servers and i still enjoy logging in most nites. i've never killed another player in DayZ for the record.

TheMedic 58 Posted November 10, 2012 ps this isnt a FPS, its actualy a sandbox title.. thats why you dont understand why some people can enjoy this game just fine without PVP..Some people lack the capacity to understand and appreciate teamwork and that's why there's the public hive along with numerous other private hives, and for those than can understand and appreciate teamwork there is Happy Isle.P.S. There is a contest on this server right now to win a copy of Left 4 Dead 2 by racking up the most zombie kills in a single life. Leader right now is Blighty with 2313 zeds dead at his merciless hands! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

glen958@btinternet.com 13 Posted November 10, 2012 Well they must be doing something right as they upgrade the server slots from 24 to 32 and it still filled up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obvious 20 Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) It's nice that there are people who host servers like these ;)You realize this is a first person shooter. You are supposed to shoot other people.It's a zombie survival game, that happens to have the option of first/third person view because it's a mod for a military simulator. So in the end the game is just a survival simulator, not a shooter game. If you want a shooter game, go play BF3 or CODThis is no different from someone completely removing zombies on a server.Removing zeds from a server would make it a typical shooter game..It kills a main element of the game. You won't ever dieBambis are well known of dying from zombies.What is the point of finding gear if you will never use it. If you are only going to kill zombies you need nothing more than a makerov. If this is something that you enjoy doing on a regular basis, you really don't belong in the DayZ community. You are better off picking up l4d.You're basically saying that Bandits are playing DayZ as it is "supposed to be".."Why pick up weapons to defend yourself against zombies if you can use it to kill people!" you really don't belong in the DayZ community.DayZ community exists out of many different people with many different playstyles. i.e.: medics, bandits, heroes, merchants and many more Edited November 10, 2012 by Obvious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dekartz 315 Posted November 10, 2012 You're offering a game where you cooperatively kill zombies. For cooperatively killing zombies? That's like some form of zombie-inception. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bifftastic 6 Posted November 10, 2012 Its true that your not going to get the full dayz experience. Saying that, not every person wants that experience. Some people like to just drive around and spot shot zombies or collect things just to collect them. What was the point of me collecting all my stuff in fallout? I cant kill any other players with it.

BlakJak70 0 Posted November 11, 2012 Joined your server earlier today and had a lot of fun. Thanks for starting a server like this. Completely new to the game and this was actually my first time playing it. Died a few times from zombies, but hopefully when I figure out what I'm doing that will change.

SkrooLoose (DayZ) 143 Posted November 11, 2012 If this is something that you enjoy doing on a regular basis, you really don't belong in the DayZ community. You are better off picking up l4d.....It is your server and you can do what ya want, but honestly I hope it fails. Wow, are you really this pathetic or were you just joking?Who are you to dictate how a game should or shouldn't be played? Who are you to dictate what play style others should be following? And then to top it off by saying that you hope his server fails...Sorry, but it's you who doesn't belong in the DayZ community. Or any community for that matter. If you can't think about others then why be amongst them? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
glen958@btinternet.com 13 Posted November 14, 2012 The only thing that spoils the server, and its the same with virtually every server are Hackers, I'll give the admin team some credit though, they are very quick to rectify the situation once a hacker has be spotted.

BuddyRP 41 Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) honestly people.. it all comes down to what YOUR playing style is; if you enjoy the thrill of always having to watching your back and the adrenaline rush of scoping other players in your crosshairs.. then thats for you and you enjoy pvp. personally i think its a great concept that these guys are trying out and i hope it continues to pull through for them. if the style of this server just isnt for you, then by all means simply wish them luck and move along to a server that DOES suit your playing style. its not like DayZ is short on players or servers so there really isnt any harm at all in what theyre trying to accomplish here. if you dont like it or cant manage to understand what orwhy theyre doing, then dont try to understand at all. let the people who actually join in and try it out be the judges for themselves as to whether or not this server is for them.i hope this all works out for the best for you guys. happy gaming~ Edited November 14, 2012 by Stryder.us 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BuddyRP 41 Posted November 19, 2012 the server is not bad, the players failing to follow the rules are bad. i had my first taste of the server today and i must say that even with those few stray bandits in the mix, it was still quite enjoyable. i deffinetly liked the modded balota airstrip and i plan to make myself a regular there to medic around as best i can. great job with the server admins, keep it up!

bmgdragon 14 Posted November 21, 2012 For those that have been watching this thread simply for the interest of seeing what things we can do for the community, I bring you our latest updates.I have recently been working on a improved Balota and it's airfield, it's nearly done and will be pushed out today, after this North East airfield is being given a Civilian makeover and a more prominent spot on the looting board.On top of this I've been experimenting with a possible DayZ mission itself, possibly on the focus of surviving a military invasion to wipe out the problems within the region by force. You would be a lone survivor who finds others like yourself, you have to loot and find gear before attempting to cross the border. It's an idea of many I am toying with, the biggest problem I have with the DayZ community is the lack of content that is being produced.It goes against the entire Arma community, when new content is given it's taken and given even more by the community behind it. Here, it seems that we are being limited and at many times beaten in to not doing it. Thankfully I'm not a person to simply back down, I will also be looking in to ways to unblacklist many non armoured and un-weaponised vehicles in the coming days. To give more to the community.
