wild_man 4442 Posted February 27, 2014 I'm giving up for a little while. Until the KoS dies down I had close to the best gear and had that character for several hours. The whole time I didn't see any other players. Then right at the end some guy snuck up on me in the barracks and killed me. I know you aren't supposed to get attached, but screw that. I'm done. see you in 2074 after real apocalypse destroy future internet and stop the online gaming because only this making koS die down :D 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snake_Doc (DayZ) 2 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) AHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAHA Ya sorry buddy this is why the mod died. And why modders needed to make NPC's (epoch) cause the game was shit with pure player interaction only. People made it bad. Mod never improved after KOS, doubt SA will either especially considering the creator even gave up on it. Yes because saying you're going to go home when you're not needed anymore is giving up.

ld-airgrafix 403 Posted February 27, 2014 I completely agree with the person starting this thread, although i wouldnt just quit and walk away. What i witnessed yesterday at elektro was enough to make everyone upset. Not one player was attempting to play this game as survival game, but rather a run around all out brawl. One idiot even chased me into the woods firing at me with a gun, i didnt even have a backpack on, fresh spawn. He just wanted to brag about a kill and nothing else. Even zombies were smart to leave elektro, not one to be seen, ha ha. Maybe time out should be introduced, once you die you get a time out for few minutes before logging back in.

Olaf Beringson 2 Posted February 27, 2014 I wonder, because at times of the mod no one cried about that. Must be all the new "hardcore-survivor". :> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ranadaine 35 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) So. Your post point-by-point.1. Military outposts are never safe. Except for when you (or your team) are alone on a server.2. If you hadn't seen other players that doesn't mean that they are not there. I usually stay on guard overwatching the whole area while my friends are looting and I know what I'm talking about.3. You missed the footsteps - your fault. Same goes for not checking your surroundings even more often than looking for loot itself.4. "Best gear" means nothing. And I almost died on the whole "several hours old" + "best gear" + "barracks" combo. I'm pretty successfully surviving (and engaging in firefights every now and then) in an especially bright blue outfit (UN beret and press vest included). Character is about 3 weeks old. The main thing with death in DayZ is the fact that it's always your fault. It's as simple as that. You will never get killed if you're doing everything in a proper way. Death and losing everything is what makes you learn here. It's the fastest and the most efficient way to learn. Edited February 27, 2014 by Ranadaine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

News at 11: There was retarded PvP in Elektro, read all about! Seriously if you don't want to get hit in the head with an axe every 5mins just stay out of that town. If you go there and die it's your own fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did he ask you to loose even more seconds of your so precious life going on youtube finding a vid of a baby crying and posting it here with a meaningless comment ?Can't be mad at him for that.If you can be so easily manipulated to do things you don't want to you probably should worry about that instead of wasting your time here...

Were you in the last room of a barracks in NWAF with all of the doors closed except the one at the end of the hallway? I shot someone there through the window. He had a B95, Mosin and a bunch of other goodies. OM NOM NOM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deebz1234 243 Posted February 27, 2014 lol? until KOS settles down? your playing it wrong apparently. KOS is a human trait, not a feature or function of the game. Certainly not something that can be controlled. try playing survivor, explorer, not coast spawning interact with the crazies. you will live long and prosper.

liquidsnake 275 Posted February 27, 2014 Hah, you're so unalert I bet someone could simply walk after you and you'll never bother to look behind you. Learn to be alert or lose your gear. Not being alert in a barrack for damn's sake... I bet you even let the door open so he could kill you with a freakin pipewrench and snatch your "best gear" straight from you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tarascon 50 Posted February 27, 2014 You might not like it but this is the DayZ reality and this is something you need to take into account... How many times have you died? I think that with time you'll get desensitized to getting killed and just treat it as a learning experience. I'm a very new player (less than two weeks) and have died many times... sometimes by a stalker (Frak You, stalker!!), sometimes a pack of undead, broken legs, starvation... glitch deaths, you name it. Here's how I approach the death-thing. Every time I learned something new. Good loot locations, the layout of the map, moving my beleaguered toon through time & space, etc. Of course, currently, I'm so well geared that I've gotten attached to my shit and am terrified of dieing. Not by another player but by something dumb like falling three feet off a ladder. But I'm working on it. :D 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eight Ball 26 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) I'm a new player too, bought the game 3 or 4 weeks ago and never had played the mod before. But I've been playing the OFP/ArmA serie since 2001 so I didn't struggle with the controls and the "complex" keybinding as a totally new player would. How many times I died ? lol I lost track of that after the first few hours. A lot, is probably the most honest answer I can give you. Not so long ago, I've had the same problem as you, I had all the gear I wanted but instead of enjoying it I was constantly afraid someone would shoot me and stole it.So I've been wandering in the woods alone for 20 hours. Then I realise I was screwing my own experience. All that geared I collected was just keeping me away from what I consider to be the "real" DayZ experience : interaction with other players. Since then my priority isn't to have a fully modded M4 or a complete military outfit, I actually avoid that.I just try to enjoy the most of what dayz has to offer.It is a looting competition, it is a PvP deathmatch on a huge map but it's so much more than just that, if you limit yourself to that vision you'll miss what makes this game one of the most intense experience a gamer can have.

tarascon 50 Posted February 27, 2014 I know better than to get attached to my stuff. But I've been waiting 5 days (near an airfield) for a RL friend to make their way to me so I can [try] to cover him while he loots. He's five days old in DayZ SA and can't figure out the map... It would be a shame if I broke an ankle until he finds me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
