cyanyde 165 Posted July 8, 2012 No thanks.. maybe an axe or a crowbar at the most, but even that is unneeded. Just spawn. find nearest barn. Profit.Trust me, I was against removing the starter weapons when I heard it was going to happen, but then I gave it a chance and decided I was fine with it.

alaness 9 Posted July 8, 2012 I hate reading these threads, everyone replaying are so full of themselves. "Starting with nothing reaffirms the gravity of the situation blah blah fucking blah" Yes, spawning with something to defend yourself should be a feature. All the guns end up being hoarded by bandits who fuck over the whole experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deviantdigi 22 Posted July 8, 2012 No.The I found most horror/survival games are better with a scarcity of ways of defending yourself. For example, which game is more immersive, Silent Hill or Amnesia? With a starting weapon finding the means to survive isn't as difficult. The balance isn't perfect, but I like the challenge.

Superior 9 Posted July 8, 2012 Why? Is it that hard for you to acquire a weapon? It's actually very easy, walk into the nearest barn and find a Winchester/Double-barred shotgun/Lee Enfield.That should be sufficient enough for your journey up north/stary sobor/main coast cities. Man the fuck up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kozzy420 39 Posted July 8, 2012 HELL NO!It is not very hard to find a weapon, leave it as is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guns for everyone!On topic:No. It's fine as it is, and it won't change. Seriously guy, 125 posts and the vast majority is about guns at spawn? Why don't you change the bloody record?

Elias (DayZ) 57 Posted July 8, 2012 NOIt makes me so happy when I find my first gun. And it requires a whole different playstyle, you're much more vulnerable.As a matter of fact; I think that, in the event that Rocket would *ever* place it back, I would now just toss it in the ocean upon spawn.

mugabuga 0 Posted July 9, 2012 I say they should give us something like an hatchet or a knife (or any other melee weapon) to protect from the zombies, but not a gun, as it would just turn into a FFA. Or let us use our fists to beat the crap out of the zombies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fulgrim 0 Posted July 9, 2012 yes and no tbhi say no to a gun but yes to a hatchet or any other melee weapon , but without is doable :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Renimosity 9 Posted July 9, 2012 i want a gun. the zombies spot you so easily and getting chased right off spawn is not fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
psychopigeon 32 Posted July 9, 2012 yes, starting over and over again and not even being able to punch the zombie in my defense, sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrismgtis 55 Posted July 9, 2012 Not having one adds far too much to the experience in this game.No thanks. Keep it as is. Besides it helps prevent idiots from running around shooting people at the spawn among dozens of other things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonedknight 26 Posted July 9, 2012 noI have had no problems finding a weapon or avoiding/LOS zombies. Once Rocket gets the zombies fixed they wont be much of an issue again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vaginaboob 0 Posted July 9, 2012 as title asksyes or no will do and your reasonthank youMy answer is a resounding YES. This game has turned into a deathmatch with zombie npc's for extra targets. If I'm going to be pk'd in 5 minutes even if I only have a bandage and that coke I just picked up give me a makarov to at least have a fighting chance.

Buzzo (DayZ) 1 Posted July 9, 2012 No, I don't want it back. I can always find some sort of weapon within 30 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert Shannon 27 Posted July 9, 2012 No, it reall adds the realism of not even having a gun in an apocolypse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zombie_chew_toy 2 Posted July 9, 2012 I would have said "YES" at first. But since they added hatchets that are easy to find I think its increased survivability. No more noobs popping off attracting more zombies than they have clips and other players to boot.As a matter of fact I kept my hatchet until I found a silenced primary weapon. Of course I dont play this as a PvP game. Or should I say as a PK game?So my answer is a big "No, they shouldnt". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trylan 25 Posted July 9, 2012 i'd say no to a gun and yes to some kind of melee weapon to defend against zombies and bandits/pk's while you try to find your first gun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zombie_chew_toy 2 Posted July 9, 2012 As a new player never having a gun ever before I am ok with.. but a knife would be great who doesn't like a noob knife fight at shoreline.. ROFLAnd that is more or less why they removed guns from fresh spawns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Artkil 0 Posted July 9, 2012 A pistol would be overkill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soviet Hawk 0 Posted July 9, 2012 I vote no to a gun but I think at least having a hatchet would be useful but maybe not a 100% chance on spawn. Right now i have worked myself from Kemenka to Pavlovo with a AK with one clip. Spent the clip right after I found the dam thing. Now I am sneaking around like a little bitch trying to not get killed......I'm so scared Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
