It is funny because it's true.

It does seem funny, doesn't it? That's the exact type of feedback the DayZ team wants, I'm sure. Experimenting while they can.

Nope.

Just kind of sad for you.

Doesn't anyone think that bandits might actually love this change? because now, people will actually let their guards down to people with a survivor skin.. It seems to me like the bandits will have some major fun with that mechanic.. Hence why you might see them asking how to increase their humanity.. They just want to get close to other survivors and gain their trust until it's time for the big pay day.

Expect to see lots of new youtube 'infiltration' videos and insane amounts of bitching going on..

I'm actually coming around to the idea.. If only there were a way which didn't force you to wear particular clothing. Maybe your face changing would be better...

In simple terms, with no leet speak and keeping exclamation marks to a minimum, what exactly is your issue, question or point you are trying to make?

Seems like a very structured plan, fail proof, available to put in practice by every bandit and very efficient on the long run while not being extremely fucking boring and stupid and as such i am totally mad.

Rocket added a head scarf (towel) to the players with low or negative humanity while giving a hero skin to those with high humanity.

In my post I showed examples of idiotic players (not bandits because true bandits don't give a fuck if they have a scarf or a different skin) before and after such addition.

I'm still on 1.7.2.4 just showing that anyone that wears the bandit skin choose to do so, as it is extremely simple to get the hero skin.

[OrLoK 16185]

Ah, ok.

thanks, for clearing that up. I wasn't sure if you wanted help in lowering your bandit status.

As it is not, my work here is done.

Read it with this in the background:

[Heh-Heh-Heh 0]

Rocket doesn't give a shit about care-bears.

You dolts think he took out guns on start for YOU?

Nah, he did it as a reverse troll. In fact, he thinks this is still too care-bear for his liking.

What did it do, in the end? It made people such as myself just move to the coast because now, you can't even initially protect yourself.

When will you people learn? This whole thing is hilarious.

I know I will wear my negative humanity and towel with pride! I will still get blood bagged cause I will just make you do it by gun point. I might even leave you a weapon, minus mags of course (I'm not stupid). Then, I will disappear. Next time, though, you are mine.

Announced for 1.7.3

Healing bandits doesn't give you humanity. Shooting non-bandits without killing them costs as much humanity as healing them.

Muahahahahahahaha!!!

This isn't real. But this is how incredibly simple it would be to ruin all plans at bandits manipulating the system.

It is called a shemagh, not a towel. I have few of them in RL, it is a very useful item.

[Hawk24 94]

Ghillie suit

-45.000 humanity

No towel for me

Try again

It is used to keep your head cool in arid climates, correct?Also, isn't it funny that your cultures (I am assuming) attire is considered as villainous? Kind of despicable, if you ask me.

Oh I thought it was a magazine for shemales? Clearly I am mistaken!?!?

In civil countries if you cover your face/head it must be because you are either a criminal or going to commit a crime.

So, I think this is the case.

It is not my culture. Shemaghs are being used by British military for decades now and adopted by many other military forces of the western world. As for criminal/villainous look, as Andrej said, in western culture you are not supposed to hide your face. But in the field it is often necessary to cover your face to protect it from hazards of nature. Also it looks kind of cool.
