Midnight11 (DayZ) 4 Posted March 1, 2015 Greentings from down under!I've been an avid follower of such American based trading groups like the Green Mountain Sanctuary and The Burnaya River Trading Co. for some time now.Love what these groups are doing, but it can be challenging for Australian's to attend their events at their northern hemisphere prime times. So my group and I are considering opening an Australian based, in game Trading post if there is enough interest in this type of event.We'd be looking at 1 - 2 hours events, where public traders would be welcomed into our compound to trade freely without tax or threat of bandits, zombies and anything else. We will protect the compound for the duration of the event. Please let me know if you would go to an event like this and what Australian times suit you.We have agents all over Australia East Coast to West. So let us know. ATC out! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To give in to the old trope of criticising your 1 forum post may be wrong but..either there is interest or there isn't,and if there is, people either swarm to your area to trade (and attack traders) or you end up the group picking off the traders when they've got some good stuff... I call foul. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midnight11 (DayZ) 4 Posted March 4, 2015 To give in to the old trope of criticising your 1 forum post may be wrong but..either there is interest or there isn't,and if there is, people either swarm to your area to trade (and attack traders) or you end up the group picking off the traders when they've got some good stuff... I call foul. It's OK if you're not interested, but please don't ruin the experience for others. I don't see why this being my first post makes any difference either way. If I wanted to just kill someone and take their gear, I could just play DayZ regularly like most people do and act out all those bandit fantasies. Why would I go to the trouble of creating a forum profile and an elaborate hoax to earn a bad name for myself a some gear I don't need that I would probably just lose in a few days anyway. Doesn't make sense. I'm close to done with Dayz anyway, over 800 hours, and I just want to try something different to see if I can squeeze out any further value from the game. Thanks for stopping by. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for stopping by.Hope it works out for you. Shame you kinda used up your interest while still in alpha (800 hours is alot of gameplay for any game, very few AAA games give that much so to get it from a small developer thats pretty good.)

Midnight11 (DayZ) 4 Posted March 5, 2015 Hope it works out for you. Shame you kinda used up your interest while still in alpha (800 hours is alot of gameplay for any game, very few AAA games give that much so to get it from a small developer thats pretty good.) You're absolutely right man, but I never played the mod and had never really seen a game like Dayz before and it really appealed.And it's been one of the most thrilling games I've ever played.That bullet crack, when you've just gotten all the gear you want and you're heading to meet up with your buddies running through Stary Sobor... But even if I do move on, I'm hoping my guys can continue the trading events in my absence in the future. Or maybe they'll turn out to be hella fun and I'll stick around, who knows.Thanks for the well wishes though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
