When the Alpha ends...

Recommended Posts

I'll admit, being on holiday and not trying the various patches coming out, I get to read the forums and be a neutral though jealous observer. Will my character even be around when I get back? Hiding in some barn with my 1911 is how I left it, but I wonder, with tent resets, zombie tinkering, no more Makarov at spawn, and all the other little changes that go with it...

What happens when the Alpha comes to an end? I presume that all if the characters are wiped and we all start on even footing.

If this is indeed the case, maybe the real question is: why hack and cheat and horde in a mod that will just reset for Beta and possibly be reset as it ports over to ArmA3?

The good thing about people doing this is that it helps to fix the mod, but I never did understand why cheating at an online game empowered people. The zeros and ones will be reset. Why struggle now?

Even in the state the game is in now, I have a lot of fun. I also hope my input to the game via forums or bug reports can help improve the game I plan on playing more of in the future.

We play for fun, I am on that side, but beyond those of us who just play for fun, whether that's killing zombies or players or just stealhing, the question is really, why cheat, why hack, why move outside the game to get things in it that aren't real, aren't going to last?

I've been on a server and people have mentioned items that were hacked into the game and stuck in tents, I've seen videos of vehicles that aren't supposed to be in the mod, and people were moving things off of the map to keep it from other players. Sounds like a weird way to have fun. Yeah I found a jeep and a car and a land rover and an ATV and I parked them where they can sit and look pretty. What? Explain that bit. It's not like they're real, and not like you're getting your team loaded up and attacking a town like it's a Road Warrior movie.

I suppose that my withdrawal has me asking sillier questions by the day.
