mart1n1 7 Posted November 7, 2019 make official servers interesting for people to play. make it so that people can find guns. remove the burying and stashing of guns. make guns spawn in the world (other than SKS, mosin, shotguns and pistols). the only people playing with high tier weapons are the kids who bury them and a few of us lucky enough to come across a new spawn that kids didn't take and bury yet. your game is dead for years now. why do you refuse to let us play and do this? why do you hand the control of guns to these type of players and this stupid mechanic that only takes away the fun for everyone else? why? do something. 1 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KajMak64Bit2 125 Posted November 7, 2019 i get what they want to do with the guns and loot... it's kinda makes sense... but duping them and breaking the economy is just bad... it's unrealistic that everyone has high tier guns... how can like million of FAL ( LAR ) guns exist on Chernarus? that's unrealistic.. they wanna do a realistic loot but... just... need to figure out how to do it first... and Hive system is... like trash and un natural... why can't be normal and have server specific database... like normal servers and modded servers... 1 server 1 char... you can't go to another server with same char... best is to just get rid of it... But i do agree with loot what they are trying to do... it's a nice idea just poorly executed 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kichilron 8550 Posted November 7, 2019 Care to explain to me how exactly all these problems are not solved by private servers? Just because you think the configuration of the official servers is not desirable, doesn't mean that everyone thinks that. Additionally, if you weren't able to host private servers, your point would stand - but private servers exist and if you don't like the official servers, don't play on them. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not only on modded servers. Quote the only people playing with high tier weapons are the kids who bury them and a few of us lucky enough to come across a new spawn that kids didn't take and bury yet. Well ambush those kids. Quite easy seeing there attention span. Quote your game is dead for years now. The game May be underdevelopt but has never been dead. Its a niche game not a AAA mass hype game. Quote why do you refuse to let us play and do this? So stop abusing yourself and move on. Your choice to stay.

Mosin is better then M4 ... M4 is like shooting baby diapers at someone... unreliable... i prefer Mosin and SKS and some SMG... or AK 🙂 Basically Mosin + Anything that has 30round mag that isn't M4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a survival game about scarcity after all. Well, yeah, this tbh. The greatest revolution in the game for me in the past 18 months or so was modded servers (and DZSA launcher). Either there is a server out there somewhere catering for most variations of the game, or you can create one yourself. It's true that vanilla is much less my cup of tea these days (although I still play it occasionally). But as others have said, and despite the enormous potential for variation, perhaps this just isn't for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parazight 1594 Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) 5 hours ago, mart1n1 said: how do you find a buried gun? You stay on one official server and go to the north and west. Find stashes all over. If all that you're getting is a SMG then may I suggest that you try some old fashioned camping. Sit in room or something where you can unload your smg at short distance and upgrade off of someone's corpse. Server hoppers sometimes hang out in novo, cherno, or other. Try there. Show those kids with the M4s who's boss. Also, many times stashes aren't even buried. They're just crates sitting in a pond. Difficult to detect.

Hasn't been a response for a month but I want to add: I couldn't agree more. Played over 1,100 hours since 1.0 release on official servers, we shouldn't be forced to play private, when 98% of all private servers are modded with bull shit like "no stam" for ppl so the game can hold their hand. DayZ really needs to re-work the loot economy. In the last 400 hours I haven't found a single AR. Not because I don't know how to loot lmao, on the contrary, I know many spots that are never opened or looted on full servers that have been up for ever. But because kids go and hoard all the ARs, bury them, never to be seen again. There is literally only 2-3 servers that are consistently high/full pop on official. Contrast that with community. So sad. I love DayZ but its in one of the worst states ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorScandalous 49 Posted December 6, 2019 The large majority of your points are about guns. That's not the majority of the game to a lot of players. Just sayin'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thundermight 43 Posted December 7, 2019 Maybe some sort of decay for buried gear would be nice. I don't really mind if we got loot distributed across various groups, but having a few with them all is really not something pretty to play. Even so, because those guys holding all the loot are not playing around the map, they are camping on coastal areas. I only play on official servers and i get if it's ok for you, but for some of us, there is no fun the way it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
