Anonymity in DayZ

Recommended Posts

Many issues I have read on this forum have blamed Anonymity.

However...

It may not be as true as you are led to believe.

 

If you open Steam, go to your profile, go to friends list, and then "Recently played with".

 

You will see, in good detail, who you have recently played with on DayZ.

Sure, but with 40 people on a server, determining who is who is extremely difficult.

This isn't worthy of a topic. There is no form of discussion relating to this. And some people would like to stay anonymous on DayZ, buddy.

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it.

I suggest that if you do not like a topic, then simply leave. No need to be rude.

Do you have any other response than that? You didn't really open this topic up for discussion. Maybe it would be more suitable if the topic was, "Do you think there should be anonymity in DayZ?". Come on, you're smarter than that.

This is the relevant forum. 

Now kindly stop harrassing me, because there are plenty other topics that may be more relevant in a different forum but I dont see you trolling them.

I can see there being value in being able to figure out who is who in game, but I think it could be the fact that unlike the MOD, you have the chance of linking an ingame name to a real world Steam account.  That could open up some issues, though it is fine on PSN or XBox Live.

Yeah, I can see it might create some issues for persons who agenda is real anonymity and also for those who might be engaging in activities which are not considered entirely ethical.

You're still completely anonymous unless someone in-game tells you their steam name. Seeing a full list of names doesn't really help narrow it down too much.

Perhaps not instantly, but a pattern could occur, enabling a process of elimination.

I guess that's more of a Steam feature. 

 

I love meeting another player and either forgetting to get his name or introducing myself. Sometimes your new found friend will die, before you get to know his name and it's actually bitter sweet, knowing you'll never know it and you'll never see that kind person again.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, it's just yours is wrong. I'd like to know who I kill. And vice versa
