Izziee 128 Posted July 1, 2012 I am constantly reading on this forum how the game is too hard for new players, or players in general. This isn't true AT ALL. The game isn't hard at all, it requires situational awareness, it doesn't even require much intelligence (Having knowledge on the guns is nice, but there's wiki. Being able to remember what buildings you can and can't enter can happen in time, and being able to use a map should have been taught in early school). It does require Common sense, probably more so than anything else. You can survival with big hairy balls, or being a coward, or just using your brain. Killing on sight gets you loot, hiding around a corner keeps you alive, studying a player as you're unobserved and taking a decision could keep you alive and give you loot. The thing is, this game is getting big fast, I am worried that you (Rocket) will fall victim to the mass of whiners and casuals like other game developers. I'm begging you, don't! The actual "intended" mechanics are fine, perhaps the current mechanics could use tweaks (I don't want you removing being able to break your leg, but I'd be happy it was temporarily removed until it stopped breaking on a twig or door closing on your etc) but really the only thing wrong with this game is the bugs (and it's alpha). People who bought ARMA just for DAYZ can't complain that they paid money for it, because DAYZ is free. I want to make it clear, I do not speak for everyone, but I speak for me, but I've found a game I can honestly say I love, each life is a different experience, and I really don't want this ruined like so many games have because of casuals or people who are unable to just use their head. Impatience kills people, stupidity kills people, lack of experience kills people, and those who learn from their experience survive, they shouldn't be punished by someone who's too impatient to get that experience and once they do, they will only whine about something else.Keeping things rare also keeps the game playable! I love how few vehicles are around and it's such an excitement when you find one. Keep your vision of the game and don't cave in to whiners! It's a great mod and maybe not for everyone, but I believe you to have loyal fans and respect this mod for what it is. Once it's bug free, this would be one of the better games I've played and hands down the best mod ever created. All in all, I just want to say thank you for this awesome mod. I don't usually brown nose but this deserves it, I'm just worried that the influx of new players will destroy the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because you don't know something other people don't? I know because I watched the interview with TB of him saying that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LumberBack 43 Posted July 1, 2012 the only hard part is camping snipers with nvg or thermal scopes... oh and hackers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izziee 128 Posted July 1, 2012 the only hard part is camping snipers with nvg or thermal scopes... oh and hackers...Didn't say it was hard, that was my point. Also, that's not really hard either, camping snipers you can deal with with a lot of patience and observing the area, unless ofc their in random location where there's no loot so that's just pretty unlucky. Hackers well, they get banned and yeah, something that sucks, especially in a perma death game but all games have them and you can't really have control over them.

raymix (DayZ) 1 Posted July 1, 2012 im with OP, keep this game the way it is - the reason it is beloved and popular... whiners will break this game and leave, just like all Blizzard games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Regiee 5 Posted July 1, 2012 im with OP' date=' keep this game the way it is - the reason it is beloved and popular... whiners will break this game and leave, just like all Blizzard games[/quote']Count me in too.The glitches and bugs are really the only things that kill me now. And that's to be expected with an alpha. This game keeps getting better as far as I'm concerned... probably because it actually makes you think before acting.

Elias (DayZ) 57 Posted July 1, 2012 Izziee, I agree with you 100%. Well said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disgraced 1123 Posted July 1, 2012 Yes, I prefer more difficult, more threats, more things to challenge. There are a million games out there for entertainment, for the cinematic experience or whatever.. A challenge and something difficult is needed. I like that the bear traps are being added. The forests are the easy havens, right now, and they need more challenge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
