Server Named "Non-PVP DayZ...If player is murdered, you are kicked!"

[PricelineNegotiator (DayZ) 25]

What the hell is this? The server is blatantly advertising that they will kick anyone that kills another player?? Can anyone (with authority) explain why this server hasn't been blacklisted?

Edit: This server has 6/6 players in it

[landshark 1]

I agree, it is wrong and I hope it is blacklisted.

But can you imagine playing DayZ with no fear of other players? What would be the point?

Explore? Survive? Some people might want a zombie survival experience without the threat of shoot on sight players. There's not exactly other games like this to play. While I certainly think it detracts from the intended experience, you can't tell somebody they're wrong for playing a game the way they enjoy it. Nobody says you have to join the server, so it doesn't affect you.

rocket or dayz has no control over that server, it's not on hive.

[JPalmer 3]

Who gives a fuck. That is how they like to play the game. Let them play it. It is the hosts internet connection. Not yours.

[MayhemMike 3]

Well, it is an open world game with rules made by players, so why not.

And every now and then I would also enjoy the company of strangers without the constant fear of getting killed for no reason

[PiddlePuss 0]

Gonna get kicked off that server so damn fast. I only hope I can hide the body before the kick/ban.

[PricelineNegotiator (DayZ) 25]

Well, some players can just play on the server farming loot, not worrying about being killed. Then they can just join another server and kill all sorts of people. You're right, there is nothing wrong with that.

No they can't as that server is not connected to the hive so there isn't a persistant character.

There you all go again shooting off the hip thinking you know everything.

[Latros 1]

*edit.

[Virfortis 111]

If the server is not connected to the HIVE then they're doing nothing that affects the game.

What they're doing, even if rocket blacklists them, is totally legal. I personally don't see why people can't host co-op servers with no saving once the game goes live.

Oh right, that's what minecraft did...

Good. Thank you. How can you tell if the server is connected to HIVE?

[cantlaunchco 4]

Servers can't connect to the hive without being whitelisted by a developer. It's safe to assume this one wasn't whitelisted.

[Virfortis 111]

Honestly? I wouldn't be surprised if someone branched off and made PvE only servers. Yeah it would suck after a few hours and get boring, but it certainly beats what we have now in 9/10 social interactions.

Angry much?

I meant 'it is wrong' because I was under the impression all of the DayZ servers had to follow specific rules, which would include PvP being enabled. In fact, I believe Rocket wrote it somewhere in the server admin rules that you are not allowed to kick people off for any reason, except for harassment/hacking/etc (i.e. major offenses).

And yes, it would affect me if people play on that server, get loot much easier (no other players to kill them for their loot), then come to my server and kill me with whatever they've found while playing on the 'non pvp server'.

Pretty soon everyone is logging into the non-pvp server to gear up then hopping to PVP servers to dish out some damage to other players.

No it would not because it isn't connected to HIVE. There are several servers doing this.

[Flip4Flap 8]

Just wondering..

Never really noticed those pve server:

- As I understood they are "legal" as their not connect to mains servers?

(so no "transfer/hopping" actions to standard server are possible)

- Meaning your character will only be linked and saved on this Pve server?

Thank you in advance, greets!

Who cares, as long as they stay disconnected from the Hive (which they will).

[Teleporter 0]

Jesus fucking Christ, are you serious? It's their goddamn way to play the game, so leave them the fuck alone.

I think that it's safe to say that you're one of those people who kills another person when you see him.

PvP is one of the worst features of DayZ, look at all the idiots.
