nathanielflury@gmail.com 112 Posted July 30, 2012 Actually they don't and if you think they do I have a couple words to say to you. Toast. Up. Happy. Turnip.Now that's out of the way, I realized why people say this game is nothing but bandits, even though it isn't.My theory:People watch zombie movies/shows and they don't see that many bandits only a group traveling and killing zombies with a slow progression with love for another character. You really don't see bandits that much. Then people get on DayZ and expect everyone to be friendly like in the shows and everyone to be one big happy family. Well those are shows. This is a game. The shows are staged. The game is free will.TL;DR - People expect the game to be like the shows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gogster (DayZ) 626 Posted July 30, 2012 No, people expect to see co-op game play and are disheartened to see that most people revert to banditry. In fact it's not even banditry, because they don't take anything - they just kill for the hell of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xeno =tgt= 25 Posted July 30, 2012 I think banits and the average paranoid player that kills another random player makes this mod fucking unforgivable which is good IMO. I don't care honestly if X player wants to be my friend or just wants my gear....he is getting shot. I will half the time avoid others though at all costs, but if that's not an option bullets are coming out of my gun.If bandits did not exsist just imagine how boring it would be to just kill infected all day.

sofaplayer@hotmail.com 22 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Server hopping/disconnecting is what is ruining the experience for me. There is no teleport/parallel worlds in a zombie holocaust.At least not in the shows, in any case Edited July 30, 2012 by superchango Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr-Zer0 62 Posted July 30, 2012 I killed an asshole bandit that was using NVGs and a sniper rifle from a hill overlooking Elektro. Got his stuff, and I'm all decked out. Killed me twice before, though... Determination is key. ;P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misho_p@hotmail.com 31 Posted July 30, 2012 Love bandits, heard one shooting on the sniper hill overwatching Elektro, snuck up to him with my AK while lay down there like an idiot with his AS50, he did hear me at last but it was to late, didnt even give him time to D/C, now his NVGs, Rangefinder, AS50 and M4SD are all mine and I use them to countersnipe bandits from the opposite hill :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tced 45 Posted July 30, 2012 Bandits don't ruin the game... hackers do. Bandits are part of the games design & I enjoy shooting them right in the face.. I mean right in their silly stupid faces, I almost laugh out of my chair when I kill.. sorry got a bit off topic there. Seriously, Bandits are a great part of the game, you should be angry with the ones who are destroying the game & that is hackers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
