NobodieCro 11 Posted June 25, 2012 To start off , there will be always people that will kill you . But in the past few updates as new players started comming more people started dieng.I guess one of the reasons people get this mod is to kill people not zombies . When I first started playing I was able to get a group of 4 people to play with me and not shoot me..But now from the threads I hear , even a guy with flashlight will try to kill you. Honestly I kill everyone I see , because If I don't I only have a chance of dieng if he sees me. If there was a system to reward you or something for not killing players often maybe people wouldn't be so trigger happy..I know I would be more careful..."Why I shouldn't kill you ? "Most of us have clans / teams so I don't have use of this person , if he would teamup with us he would be just another "mouth to feed" . Tell me your opinions on this topic.

Castle (DayZ) 23 Posted June 25, 2012 Average lifespan is higher now than it was six weeks ago' date=' with more concurrent users.[/quote']However it's also lower than it was one week ago. It has gone from 33 minutes to 31 minutes in one week, which is about as fast as it was going up just before 1.7.1 hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MagicGunner 2 Posted June 25, 2012 The problem, in my opinion, is that there is no safe way to communicate in this game. Communication via direct channel is extremely dangerous to both parties involved. The communicator has made their presence known and the receiver is startled by a other survivor so close. I wouldn't be against side chat returning. Another alternative would be to have a radio tool, which could broadcast global messages to others who had radios. As much as side chat cut into the "real" aspect in the game, I've hardly communicated with other players in game since its been gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrossShade 4 Posted June 25, 2012 Max already told you to use another thread made by a mod for this purpose, either use it or force a mod to close this thread, your choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evoxtom 142 Posted June 25, 2012 Being that it's a simulator, direct chat works fine. I was talking with someone a house away and our voices were muffled but we still chatted about a bandit. It's just not too many ppl want to talk right now. Pvp isn't unbalanced because of this. It's just the player base. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NobodieCro 11 Posted June 25, 2012 Im not using that thread , Im not saying PVP should be stopped . You should just have a reason why not to shoot a person .Max already told you to use another thread made by a mod for this purpose' date=' either use it or force a mod to close this thread, your choice.[/quote']And who is MAX and why should I listen to him ?

Max Planck 7174 Posted June 25, 2012 If I wanted to use that thread I wouldn't have created this one.And no one can stop you from doing that.The thing is, these forums can be a place to discuss DayZ and what we would like to see changed/improved, or they can be a shower of shit from obnoxious little turds who can't read a fucking sticky. This forum is drowning in replica threads making it impossible to get a reasonable debate going. That is why I asked you, ever so kindly, to write your nonsense in the correct place.

ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted June 25, 2012 They say Bandits and Zombies . Whats the point of using name "Survivor " when from the looks everyone is a bandit.Why do we use the term "hero" or "murderer" in real life' date=' even though we all look the same?People don't put clothes on or wear hats to indicate their intentions. You have to use other clues to puzzle it out now. Fire up that old mushy grey thinksauce that nature stuffed between your earholes and come up with a system. I'm sure you can do it if you try.Unbalanced is that the game isn't giving me an answer "Why shouldn't I kill everyone I see. "Okay. Then you don't mean "unbalanced." You mean something else.
