The Notorious Can Incident

[wattoucheng 7]

The cheer stupidity of whiners surprises me every time. Jesus H. Christ, can't people just enjoy the fucking game? When I saw the cans I emptied my Backpack and started a cruise with my Hatchback all over Chernarus to collect them all ... people need to take a joke nicely ... those are probably the same assholes who complain the SA is taking too long to launch and that Rocket is an aussie fuck and blablabla shitstorm and yet will pre-order the SA ...

People are in a tis about a few cans of food due to "realism", yet 90% of people are fine with the third person view? Piss off jokers..

I really dont like this idea...

Sorry Mods for reposting this here but it seems fitting under the circumstances to address the concerns which "Seal" feels his in the minority.

Spent some time penning some thoughts on this whole incident. If you're interested in hearing what I have to say, check it out at http://www.fpsgeneral.com/news/dayz/23347-on-dayz-and-the-notorious-can-incident I'd love to hear what you guys think, as well.

A little healthy debate never killed anyone, right?

to be fair...

i think it is hard to describe

but i guess you can divide into two groups:

group 1 (to me negliglible):

• some had massive problems with "derpy hooves", well because it is a children programm and ppl don't want childish things to see in dayz
  
• some had massive problems especially with R4Z0R and mZLY yZLY because they destroyed their immersion somehow
  

I think this group is just not really noteworthy, as it is the same ranting about details as in every community and after every update/patch..

group 2 (to me essential):

• some had massive problems with real persons finding their way into the games, which lead to a belief of injustice
  
• some had massive problems with adding the stuff, because it lead to a belief of inproper appreciation for a part of the community / two-class society
  
• some had the belief that "useless" stuff was added instead of fixing things that matter
  

The second group is however noteworthy: It shows the massive lack of proper communication between the different communities, proper communication of facts and just proper communication in general.

Good we've found that out NOW and not when SA would be in alpha

EDIT:

What also became clear AND DEAN AND MATT THIS IS FOR YOU:

PPL have all messed up information about what is Dayz. Is it Alpha? is it a Mod? Is the Dayz-Mod not Alpha of the Standalone? What is the Standalone then? THIS WAS UNFOLDED TO US.

Are people really that mad about the new food :D LMFAO!

I got a tip for you. If you don't like the derbyhooves whatever, then don't pick it up. I'm doing exactly the same thing with Pepsi vs Coke, I pick up Pepsi :P

hej i just wanted to show again...i already posted it somewhere else (so this is from a techn. view spam)

take a look at it and maybe we all can have a laugh

30 Worst Brand Names EVER

Lol never had in my mind that Finnish word pussi (bag, packet) reminds pussy. And btw megapussi isn't brand name, it just means mega bag.

Ladies and gentlemen, please redirect yourself to Rocket's intentions for this topic--stop giving reasons to why the cans should stay in or why they should be taken out. That discussion went on for ages yesterday in another thread; all you are doing is going around in circles.

Now, who is with me for a seal clubbing?

Smooth Griff. :)

I propose a seal and a club be added to the game. To prevent breaks in immersion, have them only spawn at overturned circus trucks.

[olivier_l 7]

Another reason why I don't think these new cans were a good thing for DayZ was that it made me think it could lead to other changes, that would also break the immersion and the refreshing ultra-realism.

DayZ is unique, that's why a lot of us are afraid of it going the wrong way.

Where do you see ultra-realism? O_o Have I been playing the wrong mod?

I wanted my canned muffins and maybe some FraggleO's :(

i think it is a disgrace (on dayz community level)

It's a disgrace that people didn't have the same opinion?

[Mr Nasty 1023]

The only thing I have left to add to this thread is: Make love, not war.

[evoxtom 142]

I say Derpy goes over to reddit and starts a new thread titled "Why I love canned muffins," and see what happens. It would provide great feedback while we wade through this hot fix.

Also, please introduce "rocket's baby seals in a can" as well. "Freshly clubbed and delivered to your local supermarket."

[joe_mcentire 2074]

a disgrace that they got rid of it. believe me I respect other opinions and i think with the fix everyone has what one wants. some servers use it some do not.

[daze23 549]

the thing is everyone rages over the changelog. then you actually play the game, and see it's just a yellow can, that shows up as "can (fruit)" in your inventory

the moral is wait until you see how it plays out before rage

[BwobBwub 660]

Dey see my canned muffins, dey haytin.

I'm confused, why is it a disgrace?

I'd love to see

I'd prefer canned Kangaroo if we're going with a theme here.

[belzibhaal 21]

Someone explain to me what the fuck is going on in this thread. Kthx.

[olivier_l 7]

Perhaps in how we have to take care of our body temperature, water supplies, food, infections, bones, blood transfusions, day and night cycles... etc

Perhaps also in the fact that weapons don't spit tracer bullets like in BF3, that weapons have more recoil than in COD... I won't run out of examples.

[BwobBwub 660]

Some people are just really annoyed how much disrespect has been given to moderators of the forum. They put a lot of effort into this barrel o' fun called the DayZ Forums and it disappoints me that they aren't getting credit they deserve.
