‘CoD Kiddie’ Analogy Regarding PvP Is Entirely Wrong

Recommended Posts

Agree 100% man.

There is no game like it

You know why I like to shoot people? The thrill. In just about every modern FPS in existence except Counter-Strike, you respawn almost immediately.

"Aw, I got shot. Oh well, I'll just press F and immediately put myself back in the game to shoot more guys."

In any modern FPS, death has no meaning. You can kill thousands of others and not think anything of it. In DayZ, that isn't the case. When you die, you die. One wrong move, and potentially hours of effort into your character just vanishes. The same is true for the other. Because of this, the sense of loss comes with a sense of self-preservation. And due to that, when you feel threatened, you get adrenaline. No other game has the same sensations.

I remember being in the NW airfield with my friend, holed up in the ACT with my friend, armed with Lee Enfields and Winchesters, being suppressed by four bandits armed with military-grade gear. The adrenaline of shots whizzing inches past your head, and the excitement of actually coming out on top and killing all four of them cannot be felt in any other game.

So every time from now on when someone gets killed by a hacker in COD should we all say "fukn DayZ kiddies" . . . .

The proportion of hackers in this game is well beyond that on COD......

I didn't miss the point. I don't care about spelling, punctuation or grammar. I also think its pretty retarded to be a spelling nazi in a game forum.

Yes, caring about clear writing is retarded. Fortunately, I was only pointing out the irony.

Im gonna go out on a limb here and say that I firmly believe that the OP loves to get high off of the smell of his own farts.

I get the feeling if I start calling them "Doom/Quake Noobs" the pc-gaming gods will quickly strike me down
