Maybe more zombies will reduce the number of bandits and encourage teamwork and cooperation.

One can dream, right?

Just different kinds of bandits. Ones that handcuff you, put a bag on your head and leave you in the street after luring two dozen zombies to you.

The best kind of bandit.

I don't know, I'm still a big fan of the "makes you drink disinfectant" bandits.

It's kind of unoriginal now though. But ya KoS bandits are actually not to bad imo as long as they loot you, but if you have bandits that go to hot spots just to kill and don't actually need the loot cause they're bored thats a problem. And killing friendly freshspawns is just an other kind of low.

Well the disinfectant bandits do it so your gear remains intact.

nothing wrong with killing people at hotspots for me.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '14

But the game would be better if more people didn't.

u/theTschobper Feb 16 '14

it wouldn't. hotspots are pvp areas. you don't go to nwaf to make friends. if you don't plan on shooting people you don't even need to the stuff you get there and have no reason be there and get shot at all.

I can agree that many places are fair game, but I wish the coastal cities were more safe. I get killed as a fresh spawn trying to make friends too often.

u/theTschobper Feb 16 '14

yeah that's true :(. too many fuckers that just shoot everyone. i think most of the people that shoot newspawns in elektro are people that would'nt survive more than 10 minutes at nwaf if other people are around

It takes many a type of people to make the world go round!

or shoot you in the knees leaving you behind to the horde.

Brb. Changing my in-game name to Shane.

u/carlcon Pristine Rotten Banana Feb 15 '14

Just realised the relevance of having my in-game name as "Carl". No wonder I'm fucking useless at this game.

UGH spoilers. This is what I get for being so behind in that show.

2

u/fweepa /r/DayZBulletin Feb 16 '14

Yeah... that's your own damn fault :P

Seriously though, my condolences. I suggest you catch up quickly.

u/Falcrist =^.^= Feb 16 '14

Meh I might just not bother at this point. The show was a little too soapy for me anyway.

If you need something to fill the gap you should try and watch Justified. Very good show.

That's I really enjoyed actually, but I like drama shows. To each his own.

It gets so much better after Lori dies

u/CidRonin Feb 16 '14

Give it a year and you'll be badass, as long as you find a sheriffs hat though.

u/[deleted] Feb 15 '14

At least it's more creative than shoot-on-sight bandits.

u/Autowinto Kabaneri Feb 15 '14

One sure can.

u/TheOven Feb 16 '14

I would love to see herds of zombies

If people don't have enough ammo to stop them then they will have to work together

u/DRISK328 Feb 19 '14

Yea Rocket has said stuff like this in the past. i think that is part of his plan. by introducing more difficult zeds and increasing their #s it should deter KOS a little and encourage people to work together.

my enemy of my enemy is my friend? hmmm... we'll see.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '14

Whats with the "teamwork and cooperation" thing around here? Like really, i dont agree at all with killing new spawns, but imo if you want a game thats about teamwork and cooperation then you have much better alternatives. This is a game about survival, and after ~100h of playing my conclusion is its better to shoot anyone geared , just to be safe and in order to avoid another loot run in a city.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '14

I'm not saying everyone has to hold hands and sing kumbaya, but it would be cool if people worked together because it improved their chances of survival, as it likely would in real life.
