A PSA for DayZ players

Recommended Posts

Yesterday I went up to Green Mountain with one of my guys and we ended up killing a guy out of a UAZ. His friend took a shot and killed me, and proceeded to talk shit about our clan for the next two hours inbetween gloating about his AS50 and being an all around douche. Being a military clan focusing on tactical assassination, we set up a trap for him and his friend which goes off without a hitch. As his friend goes down, he stands still and tries to abort but to no avail. So of course he alt-f4's out of there. We don't see him for a few hours and his friend actually compliments our strategy and stealth and admits what a good kill it was. We proceed to be friendly towards him and put the whole thing behind us. When the guy gets back on, though, when confronted about combat logging rather than being quiet or leaving, he starts firing off reasons why combat logging is acceptable and asks if we are upset that we didn't get his AS50.

If you're one of the people who accepts a death and moves on, even being friendly towards your killers, thank you. That really is the spirit of gaming. DayZ is very fun when you can do stuff like this and not make enemies who call skiddies in to script kill you.

If you're like the other guy, however, please just stop and take a look at yourself. This is DayZ, you will die. Accept it. We all have, that's what makes this fun. Man up and face death rather than logging out to prevent someone from claiming their rightfully earned loot.

It's probably been said before and I apologize, but the stark contrast between the combat logger and his friend was black and white and it really made me stop and think about this.

I think the Chernarus Department of Public Safety needs to launch an in-depth investigation into the growing concern that having an AS50 and being a combat logging spunktrumpet are somehow related.

Both servers I play on ban for combat logging. Speak to the admin. :)

Same. Most admins take logging (or should) very seriously. All of the servers I've played on for the last few months will ban players that can be proven to have logged during combat. It separates the men from the boys :)

A lot of people actually liked the guy, including the admin, so he actually got more support for combat logging than we got for calling him out on it. It was a good server which is a shame, we just left and blacklisted it for our clan members.

What server is this? I'm looking for a good server that doesn't have a hacker spawning in an Apache every 5 minutes.
