excellence (DayZ) 0 Posted August 25, 2012 My second time playing DayZ I came across a heli crash site with my friend. It was literally in the middle of nowhere -- and the server had just rebooted. We looted it almost completely. We both had M4A1 CCO SD rifles with an MP5 or Bizon in the BP. As we were proudly strutting away we were both shot dead by a sniper who neither had the capacity to take what we had looted, nor likely the need.Yesterday, I found my first ghillie suit. My friend ran into Novy Sobor to get some food/drink and I laid down in the shade of a tree to keep something of an eye on him. I was shot in the back twice.Several days ago, my friend spawned on the beach and was picked off within 15 seconds by a sniper.If this is how the game ought to play out, then it sounds like it's an environment where anything goes. Being killed for sport is not my idea of dying honorably. So far this game has been pretty cutthroat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted August 25, 2012 I abort for snipers/betrayers/hackers, otherwise I'll take it like a man, if someone is running out in cherno and finds me and he's faster at reacting than me, it's a fair kill, if someone is sitting on a building with his hacked AS50 TWS sniping down everyone, I don't care what you say I'm alt+f4ing.I guess you take it like a man, when you're not busy looking for excuses to disconnect.You know exploiting is out of hand, when several players in this thread post proudly, how they disconnect when they haven't got the upper hand.

Des86 3 Posted August 25, 2012 Combat logging is pointless, anyone who does so to avoid zombies or players is a coward period there are no if, ands, or buts about it. My team and I have never combat logged the whole time we've played (aside from confirmed hackers of course). if they did i would kill them myself and hide their corpse the second they logged back in. when your pinned down out numbered, your friends bleeding and dieing all around you and knowing that you wont make it out alive have been some of the funnest times i've ever had in this game or any other.story time inc ...my team went into cherno to get medical supplies, we approached the east side to hit the tents and maybe find some ammo in the military tents. coming up on the end of the night we got careless and approached before our overwatch was at his F.F.P., we crossed the field and just as we reached the tents BLAM i eat a round and fall unconscious, luckly i collapsed behind a peice of wall. The second i get hit a five man group ambushes the rest of my team. all i hear is about 15 seconds of gunfire from all around freindly and hostile, then "IM HIT, "IM DOWN", "IM DEAD" and our overwatch begins to open up with a .50 then he is killed by what i assume was the same sniper that hit me. I wake up and band aid my self, i shout into vent "who's up?" ..... nothing but silence. "we're all dead bro but we got 2 of them". my leg is broke with out morphine and im at about 3-4k blood, and only 17 rounds left in my rifle. our ambushers run up and begin looting and I dump rounds into the first person around the corner. his corpse falls pretty much ontop of me and i quickly loot his SAW and some belts, the remaining 2 attempt to flank me and i cut them down. I crawl back to the first dude i killed after i got up and loot some morphine and check his pack. I score a M24 outta his bag and move south using the wall as cover and scan roof tops looking for the sniper, i spot him ontop of the silo's. I step out and he sees me we both fire his round lands low, I plant 1 right in his brain box. my team then returns and loots their gear back with out incident and we call it a night. At no point after the first shot did I even entertain the notion that I would survive that.TL:DR wounded, crippled, outta ammo, and pinned down by automatic weapon and sniper fire took out a 3 man team and sniper overwatch solo instead of combat logging like a bitch.IF YOU COMBAT LOG AT THE FIRST SIGNS OF DANGER ALL YOUR PLAYING IS A JUNK COLLECTING JOGGING SIMULATOR. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HardPython 2 Posted August 26, 2012 When your dealing with the amount of hackers in this game i don't blame people for alt f4ing anymore. These script kids are so fucking stupid that they won't realize that hacking will only ruin this game for them and everyone when all is said and done.

Bullet Catcher 7 Posted August 26, 2012 I have been killed by so many different players, be they hackers or legit, I dunno, don't really care, I respawn, start over, and hope for a longer run than the last time. Combat loggin cause yer afraid to lose gear is the definition of pansy-hood, take yer lead salad like a true bean hunter, and start again. What's the big deal?
