The_Spy1451 5 Posted August 21, 2012 seriously the only thing you do is to scare off potential playersI bought ArmA CO 3 days ago really worried about what i read in the forum "This game it's full with cod kids that just shoot you"BullshitIt took me 2 hours to find a friendly player in elektro we teamed up and found 3 more guys that were friendly so i don't see any cod fags that make cherno a deathmatch. Yes, i have been killed 3 times by bandits but that is what makes the game fun, if the game was an online coop with 50 players it will be boring as hell so stop complaining about everyone killing you because there are a lot of friendly survivors and the only thing you do by saying everyone you found in this game is a dick/bandit is to scare potential players so stop crying and start playingSorry for my bad english i'm spanish but someone has to say it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

omgwtfbbq (DayZ) 1069 Posted August 21, 2012 If the first four people you found were friendly, then you are one of the luckiest people alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shakakahn 23 Posted August 21, 2012 "Game Experience May Change During Online Play"Basically this game is like a heavily weighted slot machine. Sometimes you'll find friendlies but usually not. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amaROenuZ 144 Posted August 21, 2012 My first friendly player encounter was immediately followed by my having to shoot that player in a super market after he fired on me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puppetworx 474 Posted August 21, 2012 Meet a statistically insignificant number of players, declare yourself an authority on all players.Thanks for your opinion OP it's both valuable and insightful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muncywolverine 236 Posted August 21, 2012 Honestly the best way to stop somebody from shooting you on sight is to see them, have the drop on them, and NOT shoot them. If you ask friendly with a gun pointed at their head they usually co-operate and are nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZekkCC (DayZ) 51 Posted August 21, 2012 I honestly don't understand why people have a problem with KOS when pvp is the only content the game actually has. :\ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How does that legitimize you going to the opposite extreme? Both are dumb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Spy1451 5 Posted August 21, 2012 Yes. How does that legitimize you going to the opposite extreme? Both are dumb.I'm not saying everyone in this game is friendly in fact 75% of people will try to kill you i'm just saying that people need to stop saying that EVERYONE will shoot so you should start shooting everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Spy1451 5 Posted August 21, 2012 i'll give you a week before your back here saying "fuk it, im KOS every last one of you from now on"...Nope, i'm not the kind of people that cry every time he lose his gear and actually gearing up it's pretty easy, just join a night server (usually empty) run to cherno loot the military tents and then move to balota it's not so hard all you have to do is being patientIt's a game (mod, alpha, experiment or whatever) it's made for having fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 21, 2012 Regular server, vet or expert ? We only play vet or exp and preferably 3dp off. Chances of being kos are not really that bad. Most of the deathmatch carnage cod/bf3 type vids i have seen are reg servers. In fact the whole time we have been playing it would still average 50/50 for kos, but we don't hang around the coast,...at all. Forums have also changed to KOS these days. I am afraid the happy times of the beginning are over my friends. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In any case I don't think it's KOS which is scaring newcomers off, it's rampant scripting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
