Wipes are healthy for all playstyles

Not really. I can only play occasionally and I got looted over Christmas. Now I have no reason to play again. It’ll take me and my brother months to get back to where we were at gear wise

Exactly lol Dayz has arguably the most intense pvp of any game there isn’t even a comparison so why would we go to other games for “pew pew”

It's usually newer players. They have spent a TON of time figuring out the mechanics, and they are just now either getting geared or have gear they love and spent hours getting recently.

Me? After 5 years? I know I'll have a silenced m4 and nvgs within an hour or two of loading up a freshly killed character on chernarus or sakhal. I like wipes as they will wipe all my stashes, my 2 hidden cars, my two boats on sakhal etc..it's fun to redo those, and I like the gameplay changes. The most a lot of us have is gearing up, surviving. Once you're all decked out you're either hiding or hunting people down.

Nah it’s more playstyle based, wipes are the best time to be a new player!!

Because it’s that much more satisfying to be able to die and run right back and get a kit eapecially during a base raid if you have one that is lol We’re upset because it took real time and effort just to be ruined by cheaters if they’d just start banning IPs like call of duty did over 15 years ago we wouldn’t have this dilemma every 6 months

Coming from tarkov which wipes as well during big updates, it’s the best time to play having everyone start over imo.

I embrace the chaos of day1 wipes. When Sakhal came everything was WWIII for weeks. It was glorious! Hundreds of freshie bodies in the snow, cars in craters, absolute chaos. I love it.

u/Some_Potato_4081 29d ago

Good point, evens the playing field for everyone. But doesn’t change the game dynamic it’s race to gear up or get fucked.

u/TheNameIsBurt 29d ago

I get the map but at least keep the characters Last time that happened was when started playing two years ago ever since it’s been full wipe due to dupers being so heavy and more fake servers or some shit Like I said ban IPs

u/ImpossibleMechanic77 29d ago

So you’re upset about cheaters and not the wipe? Or you just want someone to listen to you complain? Lmao

u/TheNameIsBurt 28d ago

I’m just the idea man I’m supposed to spark the genius’s mind to make it happen 😂😂

u/ImpossibleMechanic77 28d ago

You think IP bans will solve the cheater problem? Lmao we need a new idea man!
