hawkidoki 56 Posted July 21, 2012 Choose your levelVery Easy difficulty =Eat, drink, & survive.Get a sniper, if you see a human, shoot.If you're shot : ALT+F4Easy difficulty =Eat, drink, & survive.Get a weapon, if you see a human, shoot before being shot.Hard difficulty =Eat, drink, & survive.Get a weapon, if you see a human, try to help him (if he needs help).Just saying... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon1394@gmail.com 7 Posted July 21, 2012 Agreed, but most of the time Hard difficulty will bite you in your ass, because that human will fuck you over as soon as you turn your back on him. Or even faster. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawkidoki 56 Posted July 21, 2012 1337 : that's why its called "Hard difficulty"As in others games, you will die a lot in the harder difficulty. You just can't save in DayZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clasius 22 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I played as nice survivor, but after several meetings when every man shot me, I shoot first now, or I will die. It's bad for good players... It's no time for chatting. I don't believe anyone, but I would like. Edited July 21, 2012 by Clasius 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawkidoki 56 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Clasius : Being the nice guy doesn't mean to be the idiot guy.If you want to communicate with another player do it it the safety way. Observe him, does he has a weapon ? does he seems to know what he's doing ? does he seems to need help ? Approach carefully, stay ALWAYS behind cover. Ask questions, no answer ? get the hell out of there.etc... Edited July 21, 2012 by hwk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now, I rather avoid every man. Edited July 21, 2012 by Clasius Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) What I'm most amazed at is all these guys, who insist that PvP is the only point of the game, who insist on firing at me whenever they see me, are the same, who insist on disconnecting, whenever they lose the upperhand.

euryale 72 Posted July 21, 2012 Yay, being a bandit is soooo easy, all we have to do is shoot people...You do realise that most of the time those people fight back?Do you realise that bandits put themselves in the most dangerous position, right?No you don't realise. You just try pathetically to troll the bandits. Poor little thing 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawkidoki 56 Posted July 21, 2012 @clasius : one more time, that's why it's called the hard difficulty. You have to learn from your mistakes.

treshold82 28 Posted July 21, 2012 Well most of the "bandits" I have met just disconnect when not having upperhand so they are just basically exploiting cowards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clasius 22 Posted July 21, 2012 Main problem of killing people without warning is that there is no motivation, or weak motivation, why they should cooperate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
s.taylor.75@gmail.com 23 Posted July 21, 2012 The only remotely difficult thing in the game is solo play, whether bandit or survivor. If you group up there is zero difficulty doing anything. That's possibly why more don't group up. It just becomes too faceroll easy and boring. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Addicted (DayZ) 32 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Fully agree with OP. Why? Example:Met a guy in Zelengorsk today just now in the supermarket. He asked, "friendly? I only have 600 blood."Easy option : shoot him in the faceHard option : I warily reply and determine he's not going to shoot me (not yet at least), he's fainting all over the place. Might I add that whilst he was unconscious I could have taken the ultimate risk-free solution to this encounter by taking the easy option above. Instead I go out of my way to head back out into the forest so I could cook some raw meat, during the day, at risk from zombs and bandits alike. Headed back, got twatted by a zombie and gave the fella my meat and 2 cans of food to boot.End result? Neither of us got killed in a bloodbath - I had no morphine so if my leg broke during a shoot out I would have been screwed even if I killed him. He was able to finally walk away without seeing double and I walked away with a gift of 2 stanag rounds and a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart :)Win-win situation which can only ever result from the hard option.I can only summarise that the only true and absolute difference between bandit and survivor is that bandits get the warm fuzzy feeling when they kill blindly. Survivors get it from helping others. It's all simply a matter of what gets your proverbial rocks off lol. Edited July 21, 2012 by Addicted 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawkidoki 56 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) @Clasius : I must disagree. Shooting others people without warning is that this is easier than stop to observe the guy (wasting time). Judging his motivations, what he's doing, is he bandit or survivor ?The easy way is: Oh, nobody cares, we just shoot. Let's go on the road again!

hawkidoki 56 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) @Addicted : It seems you've done the good choice. But one more time, this is your story. Some bandits shoot people in face without warning in some areas (Cherno, NWAF etc...) and help desesperate survivors on the beach.What I want to say here is that the difficulty level is always changing, you choose own gameplay style.In your story, when you approache this survivor, you did it the smart way: carefully, ask direct vocal contact, staying behind a cover, playing with your vision to get some informations on the situation etc...That's just the smartest way, and for sure, harder than just one shot/one kill without warning.

Watch out!Then why exactly are you making a thread on the bandit forum trying to troll bandits by telling them what they do is cheap?Because it's a fact that in PvP situations, being bandit is the easiest way to deal with other players.ANDBecause bandit forum is full of guys like you thinking they're epic hardcore gamers that never die, always hidden in the dark like a ninja.
