KerrSG1 113 Posted February 13, 2014 The only kind of PVE experience I could see in the future is maybe a mod that has a co-op horde mode or something like L4D, I dunno?To me what your suggesting is taking away what makes DayZ, DayZ and turning it into another shit game that caters to people that can't handle this kind of gameplay. So if there was a PVE slot added to Hardcore and Regular, you wouldn't sound like the kind of person who would play it. How would it harm you being there for those who want to? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voice of reason 3 Posted February 13, 2014 Are you 14? Because I've got to tell you, everyone knows about Hitler. It's also the worst debate tactic to compare anyone or anything to Hitler or Nazis. Look it up, learn, and get back to me. How does NOT having a PVE option harm the ability to play the game? People who rampantly, without thought, and without any regard to play who KOS are infesting servers. It looks to me like you are 14 or less because for one I mention Hitler as example of how evil people can be and I don't want to debate or compare people to him and second, you didn't answer my question. It doesn't matter how many people KOS, it doesn't make the game unplayable. Just because you die by players hands it doesn't mean there is something wrong with the game. From your story I gather that you just walked into a place where KOS happen the most and expect everyone to be your best friends. Thats not a problem with the game, thats the problem with your way of playing it. You behave like spoiled child. I want to walk safely wherever I please so I'm gonna post in this forum until I get what I want.I'm sorry for you. Once again in life you just don't get it your way. You must be the only one.

KerrSG1 113 Posted February 13, 2014 I read this until page 7 and its filled with bullcrap by OP and the community not wanting it.Please mighty admins, sent this topic tp the graveyard! Why? Are you threatened by the idea of a subset of servers that prevent you from harming other players? No one is saying to take that away from you on the Regular or Hardcore servers.

mgc 92 Posted February 13, 2014 Once the Z are enough of a threat, gameplay will change.Players will start to see other players as assets that increase their chance of survival, rather than diminish it. Picture this:Your squad has just skillfully navigated 1 of the patches of forrest near the coast under cover of night and spot a Bambi. The fresh spawn is of course running for his life from a couple dozen Z, the beam of light from his flashlight bouncing violently in all directions. The entire squad rushes forwards and engages the Z, set up a perimeter against other Z drawn in by the comotion and break silence by asking the shivering Bambi if hes hurt. Bambi replies hes fine apart from starving, dehydrated and hypothermic. The various members of the squad dish out some life saving equipment they gathered for this kind of occasion and ask Bambi if he can handle a magnum. If thats the kind of game you want, come back when Z are balanced. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The people themselves don't change, even if the game changes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgc 92 Posted February 13, 2014 Z will force them to cooperate in order to survive. This doesnt mean they cant still be bandits looking for more bandits to join their gang. Maybe if they get enough members, they can finally take out that well guarded hero base at the construction site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're going to get people from the internet who have nothing to lose by coming into the server and being a total douche bag and disruptive. I've played enough MMO and various other games to know that there are enough people out there that seek to ruin other people's fun when they can, for no other reason than they enjoy griefing people. I'm all for letting people deal with that if they want, but I would like to see a server setting to disable PVP so some servers can be labelled PVE only.

mgc 92 Posted February 14, 2014 Even if they want to play douchebags, they better get organized or they wont survive past day 1.Z will make this game simply to hard for antisocial immature psychos. If they still want to grief, they will have to be cunning and infiltrate by gaining trust until they are given access to the satchel charges. Do you think there wouldnt be any crazy people out there if there were to be a real apocalypse? If were going to branch dayz off in any direction imaginable, could we pls wait until the core game is finished? If youre still not satisfied with the final product, we could invest some effort in tweaking the features in a softcore version to increase marketshare.

So people never change? Ever? This makes me sad and confused... and I don't like it! All jokes aside... please admins/mods, please kill this thread! Whats that? you can't? WHAT?!?! This is a PVE forum?! /suicide 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
basinox 300 Posted February 14, 2014 Why? Are you threatened by the idea of a subset of servers that prevent you from harming other players? No one is saying to take that away from you on the Regular or Hardcore servers.Actually yes I am because it would remove the diversity of players that you can meet during your journey. All those funny scare cats and heroes will go to a pve server where they quickly get bored because it would become a hiking simulator and leave, and all those psychos, merc's and bandits would stay on pvp servers where the lack of friendlies turn it into a big pvp fest.Pve servers will remove a part of the fun and realism from the game.I like this game because of how realistically divers the people are and PVE servers will remove that part and make it either a GTA without civilians to kill or a bad BF.

Lady Kyrah 1110 Posted February 14, 2014 LEARN TO DEFEND YOURSELF Don't come crying to the devs that the other players are being mean to you. I do not barge into a game's forum asking them to change the game's fundamental to cater to what i think the game should be about. I go look for a game better suited to my tastes.

komadose 190 Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) where's the fun in PvE only servers? sounds boring as hell. Zeds are easy to kill even with bare fists (at the moment atleast), so it would basicly just be a kumbaya-simulator. Food and water is so easy to find and stockpile, that at somepoint you just don't even pick it up anymore. Now that you are all geared up, what do you do next? Run in circle and wait for the hunger to strike so you can pop a can of beans? How exciting! Collaborating would increase, you say? Why? Only ones needing any advice/help are players that are spawning for the very first time. There would only be less reasons to collaborate, since the environment is less hostile. Unless, ofcourse, you enjoy the crap out of trading beans for sardines with someone. Again, how exciting! But wait..! Now you found yourself a gun. Oh no, little Timmy. Better just leave it there. We say no to violence on kumbaya-servers. This way, people who are interested in more than just sniping or killing people on sight can find the kind of servers that interest them, and well, the rest can deal with the griefers.i really, really want to know what is this "more than" you are talking about. gearing up for survival is pointless if surviving is taken for granted.
