The Single Most Annoying... And Best Part About DayZ

[chibigoat 59]

I'm going to start with my most annoying since I'm pretty damn heated about it right now. The single most annoying thing about it overall is how I am constantly killed without ever seeing the person who shoots me. I'm shot 1 time from fucking nowhere and I'm at -15k hp. I'm not bad at this game.. I'm pretty good and I'll admit I'm not usually being sneaky when this happens but I should be able to at least see the god damn person and return fire if I have a gun. I've died 1 time... just 1 single time while actually being face-to-face with somebody and I had a hatchet and they had an enfield. I've died a lot because I'm careless a lot of the time so having died only one single time while being face-to-face and the rest either going in my back or side is fucking ridiculous. I just think it's so much bullshit how I can magically never see them, I'm just instantly dead on the ground by some magic god damn bullet. This just happened to me... that's why I'm swearing a lot.

I want to say it's unfair but I don't really think it is.. it just pisses me off.

Before you go about saying I'm just bad, don't.

One thing that annoys me recently is how broken the agro radius is now, can't get in and out of a town without agroing at least one zombie. I'm sure this will be fixed soon.

As for the best part about DayZ... It might just be a combination of things like.. it's an awesome sandbox zombie sim, there are constantly updates and improvements to it, it's super realistic. Definitely way more good parts about this game than bad, plus it's still in alpha so the bad parts will be sorted out.

Just wanted to release some rage about the annoying thing but figured I'd add some positive-ness in here too.

Edit: It's not just snipers... every single death is from the back or side.

Yeah it s frustrating, specially after a 2 weeks char. Most of your lives will end that way so you should start accepting it :/

It s totally part of the game and the fun. Beeing sniped :)

Try to scope more before doing anything and avoid open area as much as possible.

There will always still be the chance than someone spawned wrong place wrong time and kill you and that s the more anoying part... But it s the game. Without that.. it would just suck

Yeah, definitely frusterating. This is actually how I just lost my 10 day or so character. I was dealing with a small horde I had acquired and as I walked by the door all of a sudden dead. I guess it's my fault for walking out in the open, but I really didn't see it coming.

Well, guess I get to finally check out how spawning without a weapon is.
