blurhitz 244 Posted November 11, 2013 So, I was here reading some threads about good old bandit stories and I noticed people come here a lot to fight with bandits just because they're being bandits. And I'm pissed. So here is a bandit emblem for all of you BANDITS to put in you refrigerator and spell it everytime a flaming ass idiot yells at you. A bandit is someone who just doesn't give a shit and survives by others deaths. If someone wants to take advantage from other people misery, then that's how they'll manage to make. Using 3rd person as advantage, killing on sight just to get the freaking loot, falsely saying you're a friendly...NO TRUE BANDIT FOLLOWS THE MORALS OR THE ETHICS AND THAT'S HOW IT'S MEANT TO BE. DON'T EXPECT A BANDIT TO BE A HERO; DON'T EXPECT THE OPPOSITE TO BE EQUAL. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hysteriatheory 7 Posted November 11, 2013 Powerful words bro. Personally I am not a Bandit, never killed a player actually, doesn't appeal to me. I do however think that Bandits are vital to DayZ, without them it would get boring. Anyone worth their beans can run rings around zombies, but bandits? Whole different league. Without you people, this game might have stagnated long ago, and there'd be no crazy stories from both sides of the campfire (Bandit/Hero), so yeah.. Thanks for making my gaming exciting and edgy people. And nice mantra xBlurHitz, some beans for you sir. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why people play DayZ ? Because of PvP system. Nobody will play DayZ to eat beans and drink soda for hours or sneak through bugged zombies who can teleport through walls and you can't shoot them. People bitch about killing other people, yet it's the only thing in DayZ that makes it a game. Also surviving is pointless without bandits. How to survive in DayZ ? Go to a random building, pick up beans and soda. Congratulations, you survived. Also you can't be a hero without bandits. A hero is someone who help or saves other people. But save from what ? Not from zombies, from bandits. So bandits techincally are running the whole game. Edited November 11, 2013 by 20g Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I play for the free roam in honesty, I enjoy running around looting and such. I have no interest in PVP, but see it's value. I wasn't disagreeing with OP, or raging at bandits, Relax. I don't agree that Hero's only save people from bandits. They help people with broken legs, low blood, fixing cars, even just giving them a ride. I helped out a guy 15 mins ago, stuck at NWAF, with a broken car. We were only players on the server so I drove up and helped out. I understand you are fighting the bandit corner, and respect it, but please don't dismiss the other aspects of gameplay. I see you are new here, welcome to the forum. I been here a while, but never post, I just read the stories. :) Edited November 11, 2013 by Dead Star 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xucphra 453 Posted November 11, 2013 I applaud you for your enthusiasm, but I remind you that the definition of bandit will always be debatable. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feral (DayZ) 622 Posted November 11, 2013 beans for OP's passion ...but I remind you that the definition of bandit will always be debatable. agreed, it's a tricky one,my definition would be anyone who is 'prepared' to kill for loot is a bandit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blurhitz 244 Posted November 12, 2013 I applaud you for your enthusiasm, but I remind you that the definition of bandit will always be debatable.Of course!This definition I posted is meant to be the most horrifying, infuriating, badass son of a bitch kind of bandit ever, though. What's your definition for a bandit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's your definition for a bandit?If I had to come up with a short definition, I would define a bandit as anyone who willingly and forcefully tries to take something from another player, whether it be the player's beans or his or her life.

Inception. 9443 Posted November 16, 2013 I personally believe that a true bandit has some set of morals. Sure, I will rob another of everything they have, even a flashlight, but I will not be an asshole about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't even care I lost everything.Banditry is different for everyone, some ways are just fluffier than others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
