Mattix90 10 Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) I just recently started playing dayz after few months of break. My gear remained intact so I decided to check if my abilities didn't get rusty during that time. After considering few of my usual sniping locations I decided to settle down near NWAF and begin my hunt there. I spent 2 hours on a 20+ server yesterday and about 1,5 hours today. I didn't see a living soul...I was gone for some time so maybe I've missed something? Do people even visit north anymore or did this game finish it's transformation to Cherno-Electro deathmatch and no one even considers leaving the coast?

Fortune_Finder 33 Posted February 23, 2013 I think you were just unlucky and must have been joining a lot of emty servers. But it's true that a lot of the activity is reserved for Elektro, Cherno and Stary Sobor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death_Dealer 3155 Posted February 23, 2013 Although I've been finding quite a few camps along the eastern and northern border of the world, I haven't seen a single person up north. This is odd considering I play on a 40-50 person server, but I guess players have ran out of things to do so they resort to CoD-style deathmatches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N0 R3M0RS3 63 Posted February 23, 2013 i would try a bigger server like a 40+ cause i usually get 10 kills in 1 sniping spot in major cities. but it could be bad luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattix90 10 Posted February 23, 2013 10 kills in 1 sniping spot in major citiesSee, that's what I'm talking about. Sitting on the coast and pwning bambies running into fire stations with nothing more than an enfield is hardly a challenge. Taking down a huey hovering above NWAF is something entirely more exhilarating and I used to pull such stunts from time to time in the past. Now I guess all valuable vehicles are being hoarded far east/north and guarded 24/7. This game has been reduced to yet another FPS, where you grab first weapon you can put your hands on and bolt to the nearest city for a deathmatch... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Welch (DayZ) 756 Posted February 23, 2013 Sniping is as bullshit as it was a few months ago. I wish they'd get nerf'd so some AR firefights would happen more often... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunther (DayZ) 65 Posted February 23, 2013 It's going to be great when standalone comes out and everyone actually has to find weapons instead of just spawning them in. I'll be the king of the world with my Lee Enfield. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
