Fix this deathmatch junk

Recommended Posts

Remove fking hoarding of weapons, people should be scared to die not just "O I dies now I just run to my tent regear and go kill more" the ability to just farm for 2 hours and have back ups of EVERY weapon sitting beside you all the time is what makes people not care about constant deathmath, honestly the ability to gather rare weapons and weapons in general in such ease is just stupid, the only people that will disagree with me are the people who hoard weapons, if death actually meant something in this game now a days, then maybe we would not see so much of a deathmatch.

I am getting sick of this game and so are my friends and I know alot of the community is... u cant find anyone nice anymore, u cant shoot a zombie cause every idiot just rushes to your location hoping to kill you and thinks they are cool for doing it. (news flash you are not cool for killing a unarmed player you are nothing but a scared pansy)

Make it so when you shoot you're gun you cannot log out for atleast 1 minute, that includes alt + F4 < pressing this should honestly just kill you're character, or some kind of timer from logging out, cause sniping or killing someone then getting shot and alt+F4 is retarded and should not be allowed.

There is absolutely no need for teamwork in this mod, this should really be fixed the only thing u really need help with... Blood Bags, but that is simply countered by just eating friggen food.. FOOD SHOULD NOT GIVE BLOOD.

The ability to build a car etc is far too easy, it should take more parts and should require 2 people to fix the friggen thing, we do not have modern day tools it takes 2 people to put windows in and 2 people to fix the engine due to lack of modern day mechanic tools... if you know what I am trying to get at here.

I will be awaiting the 13 year old CoD childlike replies.

Clearly you arnt unarmed as you said you shot a zombie

People alt f4 because they are afraid of dying. Therefor, you just contradicted your whole post. Just saying.

I find that part of your rant particularly amusing. Now, calm down, take a deep breath and think. Creating a forum post like this isn't the way to go about airing your grievances, because no one is going to listen to you and you're going to get replies like, "g0 teh fuck @way n00b ur just n0t l33t enuf" How are they going to stop player killing? I don't know, and after reading your post, I'm still uninformed. Have a problem with something? Think of a solution. If that solution sounds dumb, think of another one. Keep doing that until you've come up with something original, and if you can't.....then leave it to the devs. Creating a forum thread when you're angry solves nothing and starts "flame wars" which benefit no one.

(And if you think the 1 minute timer after "firing your gun" is a good idea, maybe you should join the 3,000 other people that have come up with that suggestion.)

Oh, again same thread... how about you don't try to talk for the community? Ability to store your loot is not hte problem, the ability to dupe it, on the other hand, is. IMHO if a person has got a nice weapon, he can store it in the tent for later use, and nothing stops you from looking for the tent and stealing it.

The rest of your post is just stupid, not worth to read, it has being discussed so many times by now, so there can be literally nothing new

Wise words my friend, wise words.

@OP I do agree that something needs to be done, but this thread isn't helping at all. Take a break from the game, and then come back.

One can only assume that by describing the OP as a '15 year old virgin' and in such an abusive manner you are attemting irony on a massive scale. However, it's more likely you are just being beligerent, nasty and immature because the anonymity of the internet acts as a shield.

Well done you.

@ OP,

Yes, this mod is different, it certainly isn't perfect and it very definately is in an Alpha stage. Have you considered changing your approach to the game or the way in which you play it?

I seriously have, but becoming the problem is not going to solve anything, if I wanted to turn myself into a deathmatch camping sniper I could, but that is just going to make the problem worse, start killing potential friendly people enough and they will just break and become the camping snipers in the long run...

Sorry, I wasn't suggesting that if you consider a playstyle of others a 'problem' then you should adopt that style too and then become part of the 'problem' but I see your point.

How do we break the 'must kill everyone' cycle? I don't know but it's down to the players to do it and that's how it should be. Rocket should not add any mechanics to punish players for killing imho (the Alt + F4 crowd however...).

All you can do in-game is try I suppose.

Snip

I´ve been thinking about this and actually its a double edged sword. Yes, hoarding weapons in tents and vehicles makes permadeath inconsequential and encourages carefree deathmatch mentality. But also, if you haven´t got a back-up gear and have gotten yourself a decently geared character through a lot of work, it makes you paranoid and cautious, because you don´t want to lose it all to some PvP-douchebag kid. Hence you shoot everybody on sight.

I don´t have back-up gear in tents, so I don´t trust anybody for fear of having to start over. But if I had back-up gear, maybe I actually might take more risks in trying to be friendly, knowing that i likely would get shot.

I think overall this deathmatch bs going on is largely an age thing, Dayz being popular with run-and-gun FPS culture kids, more mature players usually seem to go for more co-op and rpg style. When the kids get bored and move on to the next flavour of the month, things may change.

I think we all get to that point eventually, first thign I did in dayz was get on skype with a random player with me on the coast, we've been running around dayz ever since, after a few deaths and respawns we've got a vehicle and a crapton of guns we stole from some poor bastards and now we generally shoot anyone within 5km of our base. But i trusted my buddies and working together got us to the point we're at now.

I think its really about finding your 3 to 10+ man group and after that your mind says okay thats enough ppl i trust, everyone else can fk off basically.

Shhh... please don't point out how carebear things like tents are. Most want to pretend this mod is hardcore.

Why should death have any legit ramifications? Why should players fear death?

Hoards of gear allows you to engage in high risk operations without catastrophic repercussion. For different player types it means different things. For a friendly player it means he can afford to be more friendly, to try his luck more with unknown people. For douchebag it means he can afford to make suicide runs griefing others. For clans it means they can do whatever the hell they want, usually farm high-risk/high-value loot and drive around in vehicles hunting survivors for some PvP-action.

I think OP has a point and I am somewhere on the same page.

For most people who have a tent on a server, dying is nothing more then a mild nuisance. Makes the game easy mode but I don't really care as long as it is not forced on me. I prefer to play it as realistically as possible. Which is also a reason why I never try to recover my gear after I die. For me it just totally kills the immersion and the role playing aspect.

I wish there were some real "hardcore" servers in this game where pansy-hoarding and saving of loot for your next character was not possible. A place where people cannot just go and recover their gear after they died. Just for the ones among us that enjoy this type of experience.

Basically if you own a server or are in a clan who owns a server, hoarding of vehicles/best weapons is extremely easy and you can use the latter on other servers, tooling up, and not facing any serious consequences when dead since you can go back to ur server and tool up again (after ur bro picks your ass up in a helicopter from the coast.)

Meanwhile for the vast vast majority of players the game is like this -- > Run, Loot shitty stuff, Run, Die, Repeat. All operations are inherently risky, even the operations of getting shitty loot and trying to run out the area immediately to the forest. Have to be honest that even I am starting to tire of running expressly up and down the coast to meet friends.. theres no vehicles of course. It's working as the game intended because i am frustrated with it i guess

We don't use tents to regear.

We use other players, much more fun.
