Judopunch 523 Posted February 3, 2014 Read the disclaimer. You are for some reason not expecting to die? You shouldnt get to attached to any one character, it will only hurt you in the long run. It also sounds like you were killed by lag. You should never allow another player to get within 20 feet of you or you risk getting punched to death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gugolas 228 Posted February 3, 2014 Desync killed you! Unfortunately it happens sometimes...it will get better in time.But as stated before, don't get attached to a character, or the next wipe might piss you off :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brumey 116 Posted February 3, 2014 really dont wanted to sound that i am too attached to my character. i know that this is dayz (where death is around every Corner) and ALPHA (bugs glitches ... ). so u say these dudes had like a big bad ping and thus why we couldnt see him as he started running ? its ok... i wont let any Players come too near to me from now on. i also went to airfield immedietely and got fully geared in like 40 minutes! killed 2 Server-hopper there! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blacklabel79 949 Posted February 3, 2014 Bad ping ? Lots of desync ? It sounds hillarious tho :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k120 42 Posted February 3, 2014 Sounds like desync,it's really problematic in standalone as far as i know. When playing with couple friends we have noticed one of us might suddendly disappear and when asking "where did you go?" he is actually standing right beside us,we just don't see him until couple minutes later. Sometimes one of us appears 100m further running somewhere when he actually is next to us. Not too long time ago i went to an empty warehouse in berezino,ran straight to other door to go out and suddendly player pops behind me and shoots in the back. I bet this is where most hack accusations originate from aswell. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brumey 116 Posted February 3, 2014 Logging in = server hopper ?logging in ON THE AIRFIELD! i hate These Kind of People! greedy as fck! why would someone log out and back in at the airfield! ist so dangerous there! the only reason i can see is that those People want the loot! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deus_drone 98 Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) I am only running around with the Colt Python, I have been throwing away all other weapons. I am enjoying it. I have died, and my version of gear is easy to obtain again up the western side of the map and in all fire stations. Relax, make your own fun, go for a wonder/explore. I have been to every single city now and loved the view and cannot wait for the northern buildings to be added as that is pretty cool up there. Don't attach to your character emotionally and enjoy the adventure. Edited February 3, 2014 by deus_drone 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brumey 116 Posted February 3, 2014 I agree, but to claim "Server hopper" with no real proof is kind of short sighted.i see your Point now! but if u spawn in at the airfield switching ur flashlight on and immediately start looking for loot YOU DESERVE TO DIE!!!! dont care if u serverhop or not!

deus_drone 98 Posted February 3, 2014 I see what DayZ can give me some days, I have caught people in the open and Yelled them down "Freeze mother F, I am Friendly, are you" most of the time I will give unarmed people my primary weapon and a ton of ammo and we team up for a while until with both log and have a lot of fun.My baby is the .357, then when they add it, it will be my Winchester "Winnie" In the Mod I only used Winnie, I refused all other weapons and this is no exaggeration, sniper rifles and assault weapons are not my thing.Then end of Mid Season Break of the Walking dead what was Rick Carrying.... Winchester and a .357, the cool factor is amazing and Winnie in the Mod was a beast. I am yet to be killed from my kindness and people appreciate it. If you get the opportunity and see the other player first, Draw your gun on them, Yell Friendly, if they do not respond sure. shoot em, but tell them to lower their weapon and not to point it at you. Take control of the situation and have confidence and they will know they wont be harmed.Outside of my first week I have been treated well. I treat people how I want to be treated and DayZ has only been rewarding. I can only say the times I don't actively communicate is the times it all goes to plad.Communication is the first step in forming a working relationship with another player. See how you go but I can guarantee if you meet me, I will reward you with kindness :) If I die, rinse repeat have more fun. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drewsta 74 Posted February 3, 2014 Oh dear, my character is very old and I am yet to die from anything (touch wood). I am very attached to this character because we have been through a lot together, so there will be long goodbyes and a memorial day when the time comes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It all depends what kind of risk you take in-game.If you're hiding in the woods with lots of food and water and only visit villages when you need food - you can probably survive for weeks with only 40 players on this map.If you want action and try to find other players at airfields - it might be harder to stay alive that long,but we've all different play styles and how we enjoy playing. However, I must admit the importance to increase the amount of total players to at least 100 on this map. Edited February 3, 2014 by Ori42 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djporternz 644 Posted February 3, 2014 Logging in = server hopper ?At an airfield, yes. It is one of the worst places to log out if you are playing legitimately. Not going to be the first choice of any legitimate player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
