Karnesh 21 Posted January 20, 2014 Firstly, I've been playing the alpha for about 120 hours now, and I've probably put about 1000+ hours in to the various DayZ mods so I'm not a naive noob like you imply. I don't play this game to survive. Running around in the woods fully geared is not my idea of fun, player interaction is where I find enjoyment and if I die as a result of being too good to people then that's a bad reflection on their character not mine. Not to mention I generally don't give a shit about dying unless it's because of a bug or glitch. I would not use the word naive noob, but your words not mine. hard for me to judge how many hours you've had from looking at text, sorry if it offended you though. speaking of glitch, i died of one this weekend, tried to climb down a tower on NEAF and instead my charactrer launched into the air and jumped out and landed on the ground below...dead of course. So yeah...that was a little annoying, not because i lost gear, but because i used a lot of time getting there from the far south-west. I met one player there that i aimed at inside the building, but he instantly put his hands in the air and laid down on the ground so i said "hello there" and backed out..but i died of the glitch soon after..so yeah, i know what you are saying. That guy in that house probably was happy though, got a new m4 rifle at a lot of other military grade equipment :) The first character i had in SA, when i was on my way to cherno for some food, i noticed 3 guys in the distance, i just sat down next to a tree and watched, until they just stopped and suddenly all 3 ran my way, i ran like a little bitch and hid in the bushes 50-100m down the hill. damn the adrenaline was pumping haha, love it when this happens. They never found me though, but i heard them looking around. Thank the forest it was a very thick shrub and bush cluster there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeeJay 0 Posted January 20, 2014 Was like the old west in Electro last night. Two or three hostile groups trying to kill each other got me trigger happy. Whacked one of my own guys wgen he didn't respond in Teamspeak. We were all intertwined on the East side and the hill just up from the power plant.Lots of people running back to their gear last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StayAlive (DayZ) 169 Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) I tend to stay away from people and only look at them through a scope. Anyone comes towards my direction with a Mosin raised, say 600-800 metres away, they will die. If they have a raised weapon that could potentially kill me, i will not let them closer.

gangrenetvp 74 Posted January 20, 2014 I haven't killed anyone in SA yet... I've met many friendly players. I think I've only been killed once in game by another player(fresh spawn), maybe twice if I got killed the first day. I play about every day for a few hours for a total of 32 hours.Since I haven't killed anyone in game, I'm kinda the opposite of KOS... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duke0095 106 Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) someone who's friendly doesn't have to emphasize it. thats my intention. never trust these friendly-shouting ppl because someone who is really friendly will show it to you. action speaks louder than words. anyway as I remember back in the mod I played sometimes a hero and sometimes a bandit. never stayed on just one category.
