Will anyone else play KOS in SA when it comes out?

[Ozelot (DayZ) 394]

It's not the playstyle that bothers me, it's the dick-swinging on the forums that seems to go hand in hand with it. Anyway, op, you have inspired a great work of art so beans to you for that.

lolololol

You're assuming I'm goin to cry if I can't find a gun to kill peeps with. Any weapon will do, whether it needs ammo or not.

Adaptability is the essence of survival.

[Maca (DayZ) 769]

Hell yeah.

Edit: Maybe when the SA comes out, I'll post a thread which server I'm on and all you haters can come at me.

[ponc 100]

Ok here is why I think there will be less KoS in SA:

Because:

.)Guns much more rare

.)Military stuff even rarer

.)Ammo also really rare, you'll think twice about every bullet you spend

.)much more complex possible complications you can run into when engaging a firefight

.)much more complex game mechanics that bring the need to cooperate with others, f.e. the medic stuff.

.)complex diseases, you can't always carry around ALL the medical equipment you need to cover EVERY possible disease. So you need to also meet with others and exchange.

.)much more people on the map, but also scattered more about the whole map (because of also interesting things in the north)

.)this way you can't never feel alone again, giving shots also in small towns is too risky that others could hear it.

.)more ways to communicate, be it more hand signals, or the radios, or other new features.

that's just SOME of the new factors that come into play

Also, all that means is that melee & stealth will be that much more useful and crucial in engagements. Time to bust out my high frequency blade! Chop chop, slice slice.

Who even cares about diseases? Just stab all the people with medicine to death, 'n take their stuff. Or die, respawn with a healthy body and run back to your corpse.

I hope Standalone has it like this.

Hero Group

Bandit Highwaymen (They don't kill you, just rob your stuff and break your legs/knock you unconscious)

Bandits (KOS people)

Survivors (Neutral, the best type of player interaction)

Medics (Groups like TMW)

Yawn, I don't think ozelot's ego can be contained in this thread, its clearly just a post to make him feel awesome and superior to everyone else

I think he believes his some form of ninja assassin or his describing how to prepare an Italian salad. God now i'm hungry.

Zombie salad topped with survivor brains and bean sauce. Can't wait. Time to sharpen my katana.

[CoolCain10 55]

Look, just because you've been sniped countless times making bad decisions doesn't mean other players haven't learned how to avoid it.

I've been sniped sitting in a pine tree, with a ghillie suit and svd camo, I don't see no bad choices there.

edit: I WASN'T SNIPING, I WAS AFKING.

Funny how people keep claiming there is a "meant to be played" way to dayz. As the damn brains behind the whole thing allready stated: there never has been, nor will there ever be a way it is "meant to be played.

Time to nut up or shut up.

Exactly, mate. I love how people come in here and yell at people like me telling us to 'go back to cod' 'n shit just because we're choosing to become that bad guy who ruins your shit and takes away your pretty l33t gear. The best thing is that without people like that the mod wouldn't be what it is.

If I want to try and become a worse monster than the zeds themselves, that's how I want to play, that's my choice. I'm doing it to prove a point: That I'm not afraid of what you're so afraid of: Losing my life and humanity along the way.

Try and stop me.

Wrong game.

Anyhoo, on a serious note, I honestly enjoy the fact that there's people that play KOS. As I said earlier it's the mix of playstyles that makes the game what it is. It's the endless bragging that grows tiresome though.

[Atom Quark 437]

I hope there are a lot of people like this playing at first. I will be having my recording software set up so I can lure them in and abuse them in interesting ways, then betray them and put it on youtube :D

Just be sure to upload the videos of yourself getting shot also.

Cuz no non-kos'r has ever copped the 'tude amirite?

Saying I can't brag is basically just saying 'I'm better than you, and you're not allowed to say different.' If I brag, you can brag right back. If you can't handle it, then back the fuck up off my swag.

What are you? 10?

[monolith1985 109]

im all for banditry, but people who just kill you to get a cheap quick kill are pretty lame. be creative in your evil

once i chased a guy and knocked him out and let the zombies eat him, way more fun than some super far snipe sitting in a tree for 2 hours in a ghillie suit

[monolith1985 109]

KOS' people, giant ego and uses douchey terms, must be at least 13

[dallas 5195]

I believe people, who KOS should be lined up in front of a wall and shot with a soft ball or get told off very sternly by God himself or the President of the United States or forced to go hunting with Dick Cheney or date Chris Brown and sing a duet with JayZ, who copied his name from this mod. There!

[Feral (DayZ) 622]

As soon as I've downloaded the SA after buying it I'm going to join a server, look for a weapon as fast as I can and start gunning players down indiscriminately.

Why? Simple. We've already seen how people act from the mod, and I don't expect to change human nature by pretending to be 'friendly'

My favorite thing about the Mod is the deathmatching aspect of it. Killing people before they can react is so much more rewarding than it is in other multi-player shooters.

I just hope the zombies don't get too in the way of that, unless I can use them some how to kill other people. And hopefully there's enough weapons and ammo around to take people out.

It is exactly because of this type of player that I love DayZ

oh no, what's next? tickle torture? you silly little carebears, thinking you can solve problems without bullets!

[Dreygar (DayZ) 178]

I hope they have mechanics overhauls, hockey masks, and machetes in the standalone

[jaytmuk (DayZ) 621]

Be one step ahead of the KOS players and you will be fine, Use your brain a lil more and outsmart em :) (instead of running around with a big target on your back)

Kiss On Sight :D

[Dreygar (DayZ) 178]

That is probably too much for most Day Z players to comphrehend. Instead they think the game should tell them who is good/bad (humanity system) and that all players should prance around picking daisies in the meadows.

The whiners of Day Z have primarily created the reason why I kill on sight. Not for griefing but the simple fact that they are annoying and need to learn the harshness of the game. No one can be trusted. Judging by the mass of people who complain about KoS ... there should be an overwhelming amount of people who don't right? Then it shouldn't be that hard to find people in game, or out of game, that enjoy your style of gaming.

If you're complaining about KoS, but do it just because you suspect everyone will do it to you anyways... then you're the cause of your own problem.

Who even cares about diseases? Just stab all the people with medicine to death, 'n take their stuff. Or die, respawn with a healthy body and run back to your corpse.

First off, I would like to say i have not bought dayz yet. But from what I have heard, your body will have disease, so you will need to find disinfectant, while doing so, you may die or someone might loot you. So I hope you get a disease, and lose your stuff, but, if KOS is how you like it, then fine. I will be getting dayz, I hope I never find you.
