Ninjawaffles 3 Posted August 7, 2012 The only thing that I want to say is, Rocket, why did you code DayZ so well?I cannot begin to rant on about how pissed I am at this mod. After having a DMR, Ghillie suit, M9 Silenced, and so much other good stuff, I got killed. The second time tonight. Where I am getting at here is, Rocket, for some god-damn reason has made this mod so that after I rage, and rage, and rage, I still want to play the mod. If someone could explain to me why this mod has that feeling of wanting to come back, please feel free to leave a reply.Now, don't look at this post, and start flaming at me. I'm not bitching on, I'm just asking why this mod makes me want to come back. I love it and hate it, and I don't know why. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This MOD thrives because of the same reason EVE online thrives and has not gone to Free to play. When you die you lose everything. In turn you get satisfaction from surviving for 1minute - 10minutes. Every second your alive your brain tells you that you are achieving something. Every game is designed to make a person feel accomplishment. Most do it through gear, titles, or special clans. Day Z does not simply because being alive is its own reward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Die again, rage, replay. Edited August 7, 2012 by Ninjawaffles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
