Shanefromwalkingdead 4 Posted May 25, 2012 Title says it all. Many people have fallen in love with this game (and the popularity shows it) because of the presistant world survival zombie aspect with total player freedom. Many of you jackasses are yelling "COD WITH ZOMBIES" to try and limit PvP and player freedom. When you limit a playstyle, you limit the options a player is left with, and you limit the amount of content you can create in a game. Take Ultima online for example. This game died for a large playerbase after the trammel expansion, which removed non-consensual PvP, and also killed alot of player content that came with PK. It took away the heart pounding, emotion filled content that came with full loot PKing. It was dickheads like you, who cant think of creative ways to slove "bandit" problems, that want to limit the appeal of DayZ to a few PvEers, and ruin the experience for everyone else.There are a billion other linear, hold your hand, limited playstyle games out there. Why waste time with this 'cod deathmatch'? Why dont you go play one of those? Leave the game to people like us who appriciate a good sandbox with player freedom, and who can actually come up with our own solutions to solving a problem.Plus rocket already said he wasn't adding any limitations to playstyles, so fuck off. Theres a plethora of other watered down linear games you jackasses can play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aragos 1 Posted May 25, 2012 Well, yes and no. I agree that imbalancing toward one group or another (CoD or The Sims w/Zed?) would be a huge mistake. What hurt UO was that PK'ers would just 'farm noobs' which in turned prevented new players from ever getting anywhere in the game. DZ is a different type of game. Simply put, you don't have characters, leveling, et al. Which means it really isn't then end of the world if you lose that sweet sniper rifle--odds are, you'll get another one pretty quickly. How much would it suck if you never had the chance to spawn in at all, since every time a noob gets shot, a PK'er gets experience points, levels and skill boosts as well as the gear? Really, really hurt UO. But then again, that was really early in the whole MMO field--a lot of the human nature things we all see all the time (Pk's, carebears, and so on) were new then.Lastly, no real need to cuss folks out at the end. Sort of ruined a really great point you were making. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tangerinedream 3 Posted May 25, 2012 I'm just glad Rocket feels the same way. PvP won't change in this game. It definitely wouldn't be where it is without it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
