dayy 173 Posted January 30, 2014 I didn't call your playstyle stupid, I really don't care how you play. I called your suggestion stupid and that's a big difference. But please go on and send more new players which already are complaining about dying, along the coast through elektro,cherno to balota. Okay, your probably right, I don't know many people whom can play like me, without being caught, as mentioned before, my timezone allows me to go on during the day with practically nobody XD I did what the internet is infamous for, taking what you said, and interpreted it wrong XD *peace mon* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jslade1234 3 Posted January 30, 2014 I like doing the snatch and grab technique. This has always worked well for me. I've only been killed by someone in the first day i was playing when I went to investigate a body and I was KOSed :( I cried cus I had mer pink hat on :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blades421 66 Posted January 30, 2014 generally I play alone, and try to be stealthy. Ill just sit and watch other players rather then shoot them or run up for a conversation. I can get my own gear and so can they, so no need for a face to face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solodude23 649 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) KOS, with no interaction. Only way to play the game right now unless you like being a bullet / axe sponge.Or maybe you're not very good at playing any other way..? I mean I have no problems with people that KoS, but to blame it on the game is silly. ^_^ I never KoS, have some interaction, and haven't died in weeks. Not bragging, I just know it's possible.

Ankhenaten 111 Posted January 30, 2014 I run a lot. After I ran a lot, I die. :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commanderfluffy 20 Posted January 31, 2014 I use speed and stealth. If i want to loot the airfield I stealth my way around it and scope it out first looking at all the sniper spots. When I know there is no snipers I work my into the airfield and start clearing the buildings, but i loot fast I don't like to stick around for to long in a place where anyone could spawn in behind me lol. If i see a player that is fully armed I try to just avoid him/her, if they don't notice me and i have the upper hand I will try and see if he/she is friendly. If they don't put their gun on their back or they turn around to look for me while having their gun still in hand, I will just shoot them. I will not wait while a player with a gun in hand is spinning around to look for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ankhenaten 111 Posted January 31, 2014 If I get a survivor fully kitted out, I usually go north (as in the mod). I only make contact with villages if I have to. I avoid people. This is were I would consider myself having beaten the game if you can survive with minimal risk. In the mod a canteen, an axe and matches was all you needed. Killed animals and made food, occasionally went to a waterhole. In SA. I have two packs of rice and chrunching crisps. 6 cans, a canteen several cans of beans. I did one kill of an innocent on purpose in 12 months to see what it's all about. Decided Bandit isn't my style. I KOS though close to military installations. It's just the most sensible way. I dont kill cause I am bored though. I log out and play or do something else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan.de.lion 0 Posted January 31, 2014 I tend to stick to the woods and sneak around alone a lot, but love player interaction when I can find friendly people.I guess I'm a friendly hermit type lol. Only KoS'd once, and it was a fresh spawn I saw run up and attack a player who was drinking water. Not sure if that's technically KoS though.I also never back stab other players teamed with me, but I don't trust them much or hang around for long. Sooner or later I log out before they can do me in. That sounds to me more like Guardianism than banditry, my play type? im the bandage bandit (when i find people) randomly run up to somebody whos possibly unconscious and bleeding out, patch them up and run off....other than that im the new guy that cant stay alive for more than 4 hours at a time......

Timecharge 28 Posted January 31, 2014 I play depending on what would best suit the situation at hand. Example if someone has an M4 and I have a splitting axe I will go after them quietly and discrete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1S1K-Airborne 148 Posted January 31, 2014 I cracked today, and am done trying to be nice to people lol, KOS from here on out... Welcome to the KOS Brotherhood. KOS Deathmatch Permadeath Standalone! It would be nice if there was some other alternative play style that was viable. But being a hero is stupid because you end up risking your ass helping, just to have some 12 year old chase you for 30 minutes with an axe. Not worth it.

SpiraxSarco 23 Posted January 31, 2014 Well basicly, stealth interaction with others, more because we are like 5 guys playing, so if we see like between 1 and 3 guys, with no gear what so ever, we always try to help some how, but always stealthy you never know who's on does mountains...

irishroy 1347 Posted February 1, 2014 i personally just try to survive.and for doing so, i avoid other players.I've seen many many players, but didn't kill, nor followed them. I just grabbed my things and walked away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RockerJC 43 Posted February 1, 2014 Stealth with no interactions as I am the Watcher of Cherno...... http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/156341-lets-post-some-screen-shots-standalone/page-29#entry1730995 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyline-gtr 130 Posted February 1, 2014 Not sure if this belongs in the new player section.I am a new user and am still in the process of learning the game. I may develop some sort of playstyle once I can get the hang of it.I like to think that I would I can change playstyle often depending on circumstance or mood.

dayy 173 Posted February 1, 2014 Lol, srry Airborne, but i'm out of the brotherhood, this morning a friend of mine and I gave some gear to some bambi's and escorted them to Elektro, guess i'm a hero now. But, it felt really good helping, and the thanks we got was worth all the M4's in the world...Try being a hero guys, it's more rewarding than anything, just always wear a bike helmet, and keep a weapon drawn...Plus, I do KOS if I have to fight my way for more ammo or supplies... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solodude23 649 Posted February 2, 2014 There's a little hero in all of us. ;) It's definitely a more challenging and equally rewarding playstlye. Always keep your guard up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drsheepbringer 10 Posted February 2, 2014 Stealthy, but not overdoing it. In towns i usually plan my routes and dash from shadow to shadow. Also I tend to keep an overwatch of towns before I enter. Saved my life a few times when I saw someone getting gunned down and managed to suprise the killers :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
