TheCalyx 78 Posted December 31, 2013 This is exactly why we need your characters life to mean more than just your gear. Time survived stats, learned skills, beards etc. If losing your gear is the only thing that sucks about dieing in the game then why the hell would anyone let someone hold them up?? If a bandit takes all or most of your good gear then isn't it pretty much the same as if they had shot you in the first place? If I have a group of 7 bandits holding me up and I am risking, dieing, losing my current time survived stat, beard or whatever, then yah, I am probably going to comply because my gear is not everything. But as it stands right now, beyond just wanting to see what transpires during a hold up, there is little difference between getting your gear stolen and dieing. Maybe if you're super inland you are losing your position but that's it really. I guess until your life means more than just your gear I will personally not be taken alive. I'll take every last one of them that I can down. I'd love a good old Beard to match your survival time :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaygoon 240 Posted December 31, 2013 If i could take you hostage and then torture you with odd foods and disinfectant i would (but you would be a coward and log out) Hey maybe because "you would log out" is the reason i would just KoS you? :o Eureka moment :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted December 31, 2013 Welcome to DayZ where many hours are wasted killing new spawns from hills and mountains & it's not just one person that spawns there, many other people do and people that pass where the person on the mountain also get killed. If you want to kill new spawns, camping a single spawn point is about the single worst method you could ever employ. You would see like 2 spawns a day. Spawn camping is a phantom problem invented by scaredy-cat little crybabies. It literally never happens. I put hundreds and hundreds of hours into the mod and over a hundred in the SA so far and I've never once been killed at spawn. Spawn, run forward for 5 seconds, never be on the coast again. Every. Single. Time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaygoon 240 Posted December 31, 2013 Your main prob TheCalyx is you may be almost equal to us "scumbags as you say" on these forums, but ingame because you struggle to actually play the game, you will die and respawn on the beach, so we win :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gannon46 788 Posted December 31, 2013 i always gave bandits more credit than that. A real bandit to me is the chameleon the guy who acts friendly in chat or you play with and then gets you using mind over brawn.or the sniper watching a town posing as a friendly or a noob in need of help baiting the trustworthy to there demise.a real bandit shouldn't need to handcuff the bait will hand it over willinglynot chasing someone down and force feeding them poison to steal beansor hunting new spawns because you have ammo and can't go without shooting your gun every ten secondsholding someone up and being in control like patrick bateman thats a scumbagdean should put in bussiness cards in the next update then you can kill people cause there card is pristinehey you got the fire axe and the raincoat hell get some huey lewis playing over the direct chat and you got a scumbag of a time.

wgaf 251 Posted December 31, 2013 I suppose by your definition what we in the Medical Division do would be "scumbag" behavior. And in a way you're right. We are a death squad and our mission is to exterminate the population and to conduct medical experiments. People who do what we do in reality are war criminals. We are polite to people and we offer them help, then take them back to the killing grounds. Our standard procedure is to apply disinfectant, alcohol, or rotten fruit to ensure death even if the victim logs out. We tell them that the alcohol or windex is to make sure they don't get an infection. Anyone who doesn't comply with our procedures is shot out of hand. We try to keep the victims around until they get sick and throw up by telling them another member of our group with supplies for them is "coming down from the mountain." We take blood and apply random blood bags, and we explain each step as some sort of helpful medical procedure. We keep the victims calm by telling them they'll be OK once the guy with supplies arrives. We tell them if they sit down it helps with the nausea. We engage in some serious role playing and emergent content creation for DayZ. We offer compelling gameplay to our victims, and a narrative they will remember.

ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted December 31, 2013 We engage in some serious role playing and emergent content creation for DayZ. We offer compelling gameplay to our victims, and a narrative they will remember. The cognitive dissonance in this crowd is amazing in this regard. In one breath they will tell you how "KoS is killing the game" and rocket needs to "deal with all the griefers," or what not, and then the next they're ranting and raving about what a "great story" emerged from two guys basically just trying to shoot some dude's face off. Point it out a thousand times, it doesn't matter. They can't seem to fathom that the things they hate most about the game are also the things they love most and if they would just shut up and play we would all have more fun.

Dauntless (DayZ) 9 Posted December 31, 2013 Yeah, I agree 24/7 KoS is something that I love the most in the game. It's impossible for there to be degrees of anything, everything has to be 100% or 0%. Very true. Just kidding. Only a moron would think that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, technically they didn't kill on SIGHT, they took the time to slowly kill the poor victims using whatever they had at hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
