pilgrim* 3514 Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) Good job for your 500th post. I didn't buy it though. Why do you shoot the mutes / typers? I agree - anyone who does not reply for 4 seconds is normally talking to their mates first, so it's a trap...Therefore you give them max five seconds, and it's time to decide to shoot or leave Players who type, can type before showing themselves (this is the safest move).. then if someone is typing, I expect pauses in the conversation, so that's ok...But a visible player who does not reply, or who takes too long between replies, is 99.5% always dangerous.. for OP, I think a good standard practice is to stay under cover to type for a first contact, and/or join a group. The soundboard idea is also very interesting, but still for first contact stay under cover/ join a clan.I think there are plenty of clans who would be pleased to have just4me with them, OP would make a good serious addition to a group.Firstly - in clans there are always one or two who never stop blabbering over the mikes (..sigh). Secondly - there are many other players who also type without using a mike, for a bunch of reasons. In the Mod, typing was normal and standard - players joined groups, met people, knew other players long-term, sometimes sat out of the action and had long conversations, and made good friends, using keyboard-only.

TheHermit (DayZ) 22 Posted December 10, 2014 I could care less whether you use a mic or type.. it's just a game. I presume if someone isn't talking, they don't want to, it doesn't hurt my feelings or ruin my world.I have always felt that way in gaming including communication games like racing. It's entertainment, some folks take it way too far... and some in game mic folks talk WAY TOO much, I don't care about your life story right now buddy.Anyway, good luck Hope to see ya in game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
