SlasherMcGee 7 Posted November 26, 2013 I see a lot of topics around KOS, the game sucking now, the community sucking now, too many mods, etc.. What am I missing? I'm having a BLAST playing this game! I play on a completely vanilla/veteran server with day/night cycle. Thinking back to the last 3 times I've died: 1. Was alive for a week straight. Acquired a ghillie M4A3 CCO with a butt ton of ammo, binocs, antibiotics, blah blah blah. Long story short I had a great setup and was just enjoying exploring different parts of the map. Ended up getting one shot by who knows while laying outside of a town up north. Some bandit/KOS'r I assume. 2. After another week long run I was sneaking in a barn in Novy Sobor and a bandit shows up right behind me. He asked me to drop my gun, do this, do that, I said screw it and let him shoot me. 3. Acquired another great setup on a 3 week run. M249, 370 rounds, pdw, Ghillie, all the other fixins, and then whack! Sepsis and I'm dead 20 minutes later. Sure I was mad being KOS'd but it made my play a lot smarter moving forward. I know I'm going to be KOS'd. Sometimes I think the people bitching about KOS/community are just angry because someone got the jump on them and murdered them after they had worked so hard to loot for their gear. Well you know what? That's how people are. People are assholes and it's what makes the game fun. Every day I survive I win. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hetstaine 10852 Posted November 26, 2013 Besides the fact it is near impossible to find a decent vanilla server a lot of people have played the mod for a long time,been through it's many ups and downs and are now in the SA waiting zone. Myself, i find most of the mods of the mod pretty damn boring but people do like shiny new baubles :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weparo 613 Posted November 26, 2013 Valid points. KOS is getting kinda rampant in the hot zones though. I just bash on it a bit to blend in :D :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just how Rocket wanted it" I mostly play there 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zedertone 378 Posted November 27, 2013 I still love DayZ, although it can get boring alone every now and then... I still love the concept and all of its features, and will probably continue to play it even when Standalone comes out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Myself, i find most of the mods of the mod pretty damn boring but people do like shiny new baubles :) *Cough Cough* Seriously, though: enjoy the deaths where you're dying beacuse of your own stupidity or because of Zombies. Just enjoy death in general. I do. I break out in laughter. When someone kills me with a god shot I even applaud - when I think it's legitimate and a good shot. When you lose those things you can't enjoy the mod anymore, as death is a part of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
