trankin 59 Posted September 6, 2014 Standing in the middle of the street? I would have likely started with the gunman, I could have dropped two with headshots and sprayed the third while they were talking before they even moved, then played the long game with the survivor as he tried to escape BZ or loot the gun of his friend. Or I could have went inside the bar to the south of them and picked them off with my Mosin. If it were 4 guys with guns in CQB, I doubt I would have have such an upper hand. I've killed 3 dupers before, but the 3rd nearly got me. 3 Unarmed guys and 1 gun, how does that require anyone playing "masterfully"? That said, I play the friendly hero. Its not mercy to not kill on sight.Dude don't waste your time. iv said it before ill say it again. No matter what you say or do on these forums people have to QQ and troll them. Positivity here is starting to fade more and more everyday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Positivity here is starting to fade more and more everyday. As I tell those who say "Thats the only way to play DayZ" (KOS types) DayZ, and its forums, is what WE make IT. I'll not stop "wasting my time" being positive, friendly or "merciful." I'd rather fight the fading of positivity than give into it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Aquatic Land Walrus 565 Posted September 7, 2014 Oh look, another person with reading comprehension problems. I was never idle, I play every day, none of my gear went without use. You're obviously bad at math since its impossible to put in over 300 hours playing 1 hour a week for 7 months. Really? A tent, bipod mosin, fully kitted M4, FNX w/ mags and a press vest in 3 hours? I doubt it. I've also never killed anyone who didn't shoot first. I've never killed ANYONE. I knock them out, knee cap them etc. And, yes. I had all of that within 3 hours. Finding loot isn't skill, m8. It's lucl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trtk 81 Posted September 7, 2014 here is what actually happened here 100% guarantee on this guy who's been logged off for months with some gear he serverhopped for hears about the impending wipe, logs on and goes down to the coast to ~slay some n00bletz~, gets dumpstered by some guy with a .22, storms off to the forums in disbelief and anger and writes up a little brag-essay about how he meant to die, and how he could've easily killed everyone if he wanted to, he just shot back 'for da laffs lol...' 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're also ignorant of the logical fallacy, given that the straw man is the position you keep insisting I hold which I don't, that my gear has anything to do with my skill at the game, a claim I've never made.

Logged off for months? I have a great deal of screenshots, hours played and clanmates I run with every Wednesday to prove otherwise. Your guarantee is worthless and baseless, as are you claims that I had any intention to "Slay some noobs" I clearly stated that it was my intention to give the gear away. Also, it was an SKS that killed me not a .22, no anger or disbelief about it given that it was my intention to die before the wipe. You also do not understand the definition of the word essay. Wow, Trankin sure was right about forum trolls... That said, I'm glad my playstyle is so unbelievable to the likes of you. :lol: Edited September 7, 2014 by Spartacus Rex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dagwood 680 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Just a suggestion to anyone who slogged this far into the thread: the most vocal participants in an online discussion are often the least informed. For every person telling you that your playstyle is inferior or that you aren't telling the truth, there are several other people ignoring those comments and appreciating your OP or input. By attempting to refute every negative nancy, you're simply dragging yourself down to their level (under the bridge) and being beaten to exhaustion by their immaturity and lack of social skills. Instead, ignore them, (I believe the expression is don't feed the troll) and they will leave. This forum thrives off of controversial discussion and petty disagreements. If you want to prevent your thread from turning into this kind of verbal slapping match, don't slap back. Simple as that.Edit: syntax Edited September 8, 2014 by Dagwood Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirov (DayZ) 585 Posted September 8, 2014 Wow, I'm suprised by how this topic quickly devolved into a flame war. Nice story OP, I would definitely bitch about losing my stuff in this way if I wanted to just share it with a friendly. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You must be the fucking god of DayZ. I've gotten all that and more in far less time without killing anyone.Wasn't that hard, but superiority complex seems to have made it that way. Now, could you help me find the block button? You're getting annoying.Wolfensteinasaurus asked me a while ago why I was acting differently. Now I have a definite answer. Idiots. Clogging up my inbox with crap I honestly don't care about. If you could do the entire thread a favor and just shut the fuck up, you'd save me a lot of time making you look bad.

The Aquatic Land Walrus 565 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Heh, quite so, my good sir; you've most succinctly summarized that hooligan's logical defeat. *tips fedora*You don't know how to use sarcasm correctly. Because this is bad sarcasm. Logical defeat is generally a term not used to describe the more logical individual. If anything, I'd use it to describe the crowd of people coming to watch the two gladiators fight. Because they're completely mad c:You and all the others coming to say "gg nice job you're so pro" are the kindling on his ego flame. And yet, they continue to say "stfu" right after. It's so damn hypocritical. Edited September 8, 2014 by The Aquatic Land Walrus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
