Replifice 5 Posted August 1, 2014 I just wanna shout out first of all the game brings good suspence because you can lose everything and win everything, that is what i love about it. But let's face facts, people want to play with equal powers. Equal guns, equal changes. If they cannot, they will stop playing. It is called the 'fun' factor. The thing is, why do you want to make certain items 'rare' and some other items 'not so rare'? This game should not give players who find a AK gun all the power? My point is just, you should not make items rare or respawns that difficult to find. When you start you should be allowed to get ANY gun in ANY town. Fun = equal fun for everyone, equal weapons for everyone, equal loot opportunities for everyone. Not fun = constantly roaming the internet to find out where you exactly want to find THAT certain gun. It should be obvious from the start where you find such guns. Because the makers of this game make certain loot harder to find then others, people play LESS togheter. Oh and by the way, all for sudden in 0.47 it seems much harder to find a compass? You got to be kidding me. Eitherway, you remove all the fancy AK and automatic weapons, which makes it more fair. Or you just let those weapons respawn in EACH police station. Let's keep this game fair, let's keep the fun. Loot should never ever be rare and in fact be available in any recognizable places 'like police stations'. And because you made loot rare, there are a LOT of servers that constantly restart. Which offcourse is also a NOT FUN factor when you are playing. Please fix loot equality, stop making items rarer and rarer and rarer. Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the very reason to cooperate or compete. if everyone just had all they want of everything it would be COD with a really big map. better things should be rarer making those who have them a target, threat, or potential asset if thier part of your group. dayZ is NOT and arena shooter, and it never should be. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inception. 9443 Posted August 1, 2014 Fair? When has DayZ ever been considered 'fair'? It is because of its unfairness that it is considered unique. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluxley 2228 Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) Once item persistence is rolled out to stable, loot will no longer respawn with server restarts, this also has the added bonus of making good gear even rarer, you're not going to like it i think.

TheWizard14 372 Posted August 1, 2014 i'm sorry but this isn't cod where you have equal chance at shooting your m8s and getting equal guns. i think the OP was high on something when typing this 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeChat 131 Posted August 1, 2014 I would say that DayZ is perfectly fair, as fair as RNG can be - but RNG affects everyone so it is equal at least, because everyone has to go through the same process in finding their 'rare' weapons. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hombrecz 832 Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) I think OP is probably young player who recently bought Standalone, without any previous knowledge about the game.It is to be expected that he is now confused. Anyway no, DayZ was never fair nor aimed for "casuals" hence this game might not be the right one for OP. Edited August 1, 2014 by Hombre 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036 Posted August 1, 2014 Anyway no, DayZ was never fair nor aimed for "casuals" hence this game might not be the right one for OP.I beg to differ. I personally see this game going into a more casual route, but, not near the extent that all MMO's went in order to attract the simple players. The OP is way off base tho. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soulfirez 901 Posted August 1, 2014 Ahh this is ment to be an anti game, there is not ment to be anything fair. Its ment to be gut wrenching hard, have you searching for days for that gun, attachment ,tool or piece of clothing that you want and can have it all taken away in 1 click of the left mouse button or a jump of the zed you didnt see. The fun is in the struggle the sense of achievement when you find or take what it was you wanted( currently its not all that hard finding or keeping good stuff so at the moment you have it as close to what you want as your probably ever going to get. Welcome to dayz leave ya fun at the door and grip ya mouse in grim determination as you navigate 225km of potential death and dispair. I hope you enjoy the beach because unless you harden to the task i have a feeling you might spend a while there.... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well what we have now might not represent what we will have in beta or later.But yes, some of the decisions developers have taken might suggest, that they want DayZ to appeal to masses. Don't like that much to be honest as my signature can suggest. Edited August 1, 2014 by Hombre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeeVanSpliff 156 Posted August 1, 2014 Fun = equal fun for everyone, equal weapons for everyone, equal loot opportunities for everyone. Not fun = constantly roaming the internet to find out where you exactly want to find THAT certain gun. It should be obvious from the start where you find such guns. In a game like DayZ, there are always unfairness, even if people have similar gear. Better position, seeing people first, more friends around, zombies biting someone's posterior in the heat of combat - all these things make encounters between players hugely unfair. Besides, I don't agree with equating fun with fairness. I've had a hell of a lot of (very stressful) fun running away from people with superior gear in this game. Let's keep this game fair, let's keep the fun. Loot should never ever be rare and in fact be available in any recognizable places 'like police stations'. I don't agree here either. The nervous feeling of entering a police station when you've only got a baseball bat, the way you loot upper floor quickly to avoid getting cornered. Also adds a feeling of realism: Of course you find more firearms and uniforms in a building used by people wearing uniforms and holding guns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
