HamTheBacon 76 Posted July 4, 2012 So about a month ago i bought arma 2 operation arrowhead, installed dayz and had a full month of pure fun, i have enjoyed every minute of it, but i decided to check the forums and i see 2 groups of people who are fighting each other over how the game should be made based on what they want, so why no compromise?My ideas goes as followes, make 2 different types of servers, people buy and host servers they could choose what server they want to host, here are the three groups of people who inhabit dayz as i see it, and what they would like the most.The "Carebear" - The carebear wants easy, wants to play the game with minimal difficulty and wants everything to change to make the game gear more toward PvI (Player VS Infected) and less toward PvP. I say make Carebear servers, where Friendly fire is disabled making it impossible for people to shoot people, this will allow these carebears to play with their friends, make new ones and just find items and stuff and kill zombies, if the other parties dont like it, then avoid carebear servers.The "Suvival Eliteists" - The Survival Eliteist will mostly move on his own or in small groups as they plunder towns in search of equipment and other people to kill, they generally know and have the best equipment or where to get it, and know how to defend himself should he get into confontation. Dont change these servers, leave them the way they are this way each server is exactly how the people want the server to stay, and the carebears who want to make it easier can go to their servers.And then there is me, the item hunter - I go onto dayz, not to kill but to item hunt, i like finding the cool equipment and then i move on to other places to find more equipment, i spent a few hours last night in the international airfield and found a FN FAL among 6 other moderate - very rare guns, just spending that time looking is what drives me to play this game, so for people like this, if they want easy they can go item hunt on carebear servers, or if they want a challange they can item hunt on eliet servers.This as far as i can tell will make everyone happy, lemme know what you think, yay? nay? your thoughts?

NoxZA 2 Posted July 4, 2012 I don't get why people like to item hunt... The items are there to help you survive, they are a means to an end.And no, there should never be different kinds of servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elias (DayZ) 57 Posted July 4, 2012 In my opinion, there should'nt be segregation between players and playstyles. Chernarus is big enough for all, and the mod gets it's strenght from mixing those playstyles together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HamTheBacon 76 Posted July 4, 2012 this is true but there are people asking for change and others asking for the same, why not give both to make everyone happy, and i item hunt because its fun, i like going through places to see what item spawned, the thrill of finding that rare item is just way to awesome.

Cosmic (DayZ) 12 Posted July 4, 2012 I've suggested PVZ and PVP servers quite a few times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fml 29 Posted July 4, 2012 What about the people that want pvp without the 100% kill on sight? Back to the drawing board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HamTheBacon 76 Posted July 4, 2012 with all due respect weed, we are all entitled to an opinion, and if my opinion is the same as others, it would show that its a popular opinion, some people like the fact that people who arnt like him and dont know as much as him just walk in plain sight and get killed and looted, well i dont like people who take advantage of other people who arnt as skilled or who arnt as good as them, i can play the game, iv gone a week without dying so far and iv done my fair share of killing, but im not in it to camp noobs just to piss them off, or spam barbed wire to prevent people going places, all im in this game for is to collect items, and kill zombies, and the accasional asshole who thinks its funny to kill people who spawn on the coast, or to snipe people who are just looking for what they need, personally some servers can afford to have an easy button for those who are new and are less inclined to play PVP, as of right now i think those people should have a place of their own without fear of getting camped, as for me? ill stick to farming places for phat loot while i kill you before you have the chance to kill me.
