Lan and other stuff

Recommended Posts

First up im new here so please forgive me if anything has already been posted.

 

I spent 4 days playing day z so far and built up a pretty good inventory - I mostly played at night on servers with few players to try to increase my chances.

 

I wanted to play daytime a bit but was fearful of bandits - I played on what was described as a PvE server so therefore was hoping not to get killed. Some guy then wasted me for no reason, I had no guns, just an axe and some food/water/bandages etc - against server rules -  guess he was just an arse but thats the harsh reality of human nature and dayz/survival i suppose.

 

I know the game is all about survival - death is pretty inevitable at some point I guess but I was fairly gutted because I had spent quite a bit of time and just wanted to find a gun before I got into any major fights :( also I had the sacred can opener!

 

My question is if I set up a lan game to build up my inventory again, and then go online after, will the character remain the same or will the lan character not pass over as it were and I will have to start again? I know this is kinda not in the spirit of the game but hey.

 

Other q is how do you set up lan - is it easy?

 

On another note, I think the game is awesome but the zombies walking through stuff is surely the most pressing bug to get fixed? it makes the game completely broken- zombie through wall killed me good and proper.

 

Sorry for multiple subjects but my last thing is I would love to team up with some people but none of my steam friends are playing at the mo so if someone wants to team up with a noob and give me some survival training then give me a shout.

It is very simple: you can't.

 

Now you might ask why. To prevent this:

It is against the rules to enforce a no KoS rule on your server.

 

Also, I don't think you can set up a DayZ LAN server right now.

ah fair play thanks for the advice.

 

On that note, I am worried I am going to stop being quite so friendly - this guy was on his own and looked at me a bit before deciding to waste me - next time I will be more than tempted just to smack them in the face with my axe :)

I should have anticipated the inevitable twatty response given I appreciate that my question was a bit lame, its just a bit of a bitch to build so many hours of play for it all to be over in a second :(

Just pick another game in your library next time....

It is a survival game, be glad you where not fully geared yet.

If you looked up the game before buying, you would've noticed that's the core aspect of DayZ... Should've checked the mod to see if you actually like the game, instead of asking the game to change to please you.

it astounds me how hostile people can be I was merely stating that it was disappointing to me to be killed on a supposed PvE server (which i have since found out are not permitted) and was wondering if i could get some gear a little easier in the day without getting mowed down by bandit assholes, I am quite obviously new, am learning and have only been playing for 3 days no need to be all cunty about it...

Talk to him and if he don't reply, shoot him...

People that play without mics in this game should get used to getting killed :)

Or ofc if you don't have a weapon, get away :D

my thoughts exactly, PVE is currently not allowed, but soon they will have private hives to allow pve rules passwords and registrations

crueserver1.freeforums.net sign up here and when they realease passworded servers we will be getting one and running pve rules, until then you are more then welcome to group up and play teamspeak info is on the forums. I play everyday after 5pm est would love to have you as part of our community !
