WolfgangErikson 127 Posted January 29, 2014 That actually might reduce KOS. lol. If you die while infected, after like 30 seconds (or some other amount of time) you get back up as some sort of player controlled super zed. Of course you could be killed (a second time) and logging out as a zed would kill you (or make a regular zed). Revenge would be sweet. Seriously, this might be the only good solution to KOS and encourage more "catch and release" banditry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weedmasta 784 Posted January 29, 2014 KOS is not a problem therefore does not require a solution. It has always been a part of the game (mod and SA) and always will be. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WolfgangErikson 127 Posted January 29, 2014 KOS is not a problem therefore does not require a solution. It has always been a part of the game (mod and SA) and always will be. I agree with you, but this adds a nice gameplay element without having any kind of stupid artificial humanity system. Of course there will always be KOS. I just think this is the only natural kind of deterrent for it. Besides, I could always just kill said player, and wait a little, while to see if it turns, then kill it again. And non-infected wouldn't turn at all. So there is a sort of interesting gamble. But then comes the issue of you controlling said super zed and running to the east coast then logging out to come in as a fresh spawn and looting your own corpse.... There could be a time limit, after like 2 minutes as a zombie, it turns into a regular one, or just dies. I dunno. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's not being a troll. KoS is part of the game. If you don't like it, go play Hello Kitty Adventures Online or Neopets. I hear there's no KoS in them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry but it just seems like a poor gimmick.I was simply bitching because he probably sticks his nose in every thread about KoS and has said the same thing. Its really not needed. edit: Sorry for not multi-quoting, which ive seen people bitch at people for. Which is worse?

Take your own advice. And by the way KoS isn't a damn problem it's part of the game, get that through your thick, fedora wearing skull. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blissfulkunt 196 Posted January 29, 2014 Maybe that is because every thread about KOS says the same thing about KOS? Ever thought of that buddy?Its not that KoS is the problem, its the amount of KoS vs The players that are putting effort and time into trying to communicate and help others plus better themselves. Right now with everyone already bored and so many doing it, its a problem bud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blissfulkunt 196 Posted January 29, 2014 Alright since I made everyone butt-hurt by calling Mr. 500 a troll Ill stop, carry on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monkfish (DayZ) 339 Posted January 29, 2014 Well that escalated quickly. The KoS 'problem', if you subscribe to the idea that it is, will be fixed once the zombie count goes up and they get properly dangerous/infectious. Debating whether or not it's actually a problem or not is an exercise in futility because everyone has their own opinion (probably based largely on their own experiences) and no-one is right, so you can all fuck off about it. As for the OP's suggestion? Nyeh. I don't think it'll suit DayZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hatesauce 99 Posted January 29, 2014 Man, I have helped multiple players no problem. The ones I deem non-threatening. Otherwise I shoot without warning. This KoS crying shit needs to go away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean c'mon whens this game gonna get realistic???I actually had this same idea not too long ago. I think it would awesome if we could turn into zombies even for a little while after being killed. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Right now with everyone already bored and so many doing it, its a problem bud. I am not trying to troll people who say the amount of KOS is a problem. And no it isn't a problem. e.g. If you hang around Cherno, Elektro and Balota all the time you are going to get shot. Those are the hottest spots on the map. they were the hottest spots in the mod. People who want to KOS just for the sake of KOS'ing will go there because it is a target rich environment. Asking why you got KOS'ed in Elektro, Cherno or Balota, is like asking why your hand turned into minced meat when you put it in the meat grinder. As I said on another thread, 40-50% of my interactions with other players ended up with everyone being alive at the end. Why? Because I know how to stay safe and I know how to approach or avoid situations with minimal risk. Many people don't, especially people new to the franchise; and have to learn to and eventually will if they don't rage quit until then. That is why there are so many people complaining about KOS because there are a lot of inexperienced players out there. And no, running in the middle of a highway is not taking a risk, it is stupidity and you are just asking for a bullet in the back of your head. I have been playing SA since 1 week after the release and have since been KOS'ed 2 maybe 3 times in 114 hours of game time. So when you are talking about the amount of KOS'ing being a problem, I have no idea wtf you are talking about.
