Server Difficulty and Player Behavior Question.

[Yarrick68 (DayZ) 26]

So for those that have some decent playing time on all the server types my question is do the different server types pull in a different type of player?

It might make sense to me that the griefing COD kiddie type players would stay away from servers that didn't have crosshairs, 3d, and nametages but I might be wrong.

Do people in Expert servers feel there is more co-operation or the same amount as a regular server? I would like to hear some opinions on it.

What about Veteran servers? is turning off crosshairs but keeping 3d better or worse than a regular server for player co-operation?

Do you think players of certian age ranges gravitate to certian types of servers?

I've played roughly 80+ hours on mixed servers and I have yet to find even one guy who wants to cooperate with me :(

So no, my conclusion is that everyone is doing the "Shoot on Sight"-strategy and server difficulty has nothing to do with anything.

I play on a veteran server whilst my friend players on regular.

He likes to shoot everything that moves and is way too stubborn to do anything else.

I play a situational game style, if I just spawn and I see someone at balota airfield with they're AKM and Alice pack I won't shoot, but if for some reason I am starving or in need of something you have I may shoot you depending on what I need. But I do like my 3rd person veiw, I don't get motion sickness that way.

I have had a few times where people were kind and helpful. Yes I have been shot a lot too...lol Recently I came around a corner and only had a crowbar and two guys were in a hallway and shot me in the leg and I crawled back into the room. They wanted to talk and see if I was friendly and they fixed me up. We chatted a bit they got me a transfusion and a weapon and we ran around the 3 of us for an hour looking for gear. We even ran into a player that shot at us and we as a group returned fire and eliminated the threat.. so yes it can happen and it was a lot of fun.

You haven't met me and my band of merry men.
