Valaden 16 Posted June 22, 2012 So here I was, minding my own business on night-time, low population servers, looking for downed helicopters north of Novy/Stary Sobor.Lo and behold, I see two guys running through a field. Scoping in with my trusty DMR(+NVG), I notice they are both well geared(M14 EP+NVG for one, forgot for the other..).I decide, eh, a second pair of NVG's never hurt anyone and that M14 would complement my DMR nicely(they share ammo!).I take aim at one's head, he goes down. Follow up shot on the second ones head, he hits the dirt too. Murder count doesnt go up, what gives?I check the server population, they both left before dying. I decide to play the disconnection game with them.I leave, quickly look through the low-pop servers and within 15 seconds, I find the server they are now on. I reconnect, see my little friend out in the field bandaging, pop one in his chest, this time he is down for good. Unfortunately, his buddy never showed up.

aelus 14 Posted June 22, 2012 Did you get their tags so I can deal with it? I have been consistently bitching at people (you can ask) about disconnecting. Grab me their names and feel free to contact me on steam, i'll hand you some weapons and shit to make up for this because I too am TRULY against disconnections. I ran into a group of people last night on Dallas 41 that not only DC'd, but shut down the server and locked it to get their shit back. I know your pain.

Running out into a field before checking it.. retarded.If you want to continue to act like e-badass though, i'll gladly come join a server you're on and hunt you down. Just let me know, as my hospitality towards you only goes so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drewsta 74 Posted July 19, 2012 I've never disconnected on purpose to evade a bandit etc. I guess people are doing it so they don't die and lose their gear, I do understand the thinking behind that. Isn't that going against everything the mod stands for though? Survivng on your own or with "friends" using planning and patience is obviously too hard for alot of players and although highly unrealstic, disconnecting is an easy solution. Knowing you have survived for days or weeks without disconnecting or purposely jumping servers for an advantage is extremely gratifying for players like me. I guess I just learn to adapt to what ever is going on around me because I have to. If people are disconnecting or randomly appearing in different places I'll have to integrate that into my game play. While it certainly pisses alot of players of and there is a huge amount of negative feedback on that topic, it just becomes another twist in the game now that I have to plan for to insure survival.my two cents which noone asked for :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eatskittens (DayZ) 20 Posted July 20, 2012 I was working the tree line from Mogilevka to Vyshone. I see a guy running right down the road with 2 zeds in tow. I decided to just watch, he looked relatively weak in gear. He suddenly stops and the zeds catch up, sure enough DC'd. I was like cool lets see what happens. Sure enough about a minute later he reappears runs ten feet and stops. Two M14 rounds to the dome and game over for Recrush3. Sad part is I was gonna let him live till I saw the DC.

Lou_Drew 10 Posted July 20, 2012 Why was he bandaging if you never shot him?How did he live if you shot him in the head?Your story doesn't add up. Don't lie. You sprayed bullets and managed to land a couple by accident. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
