DayZ
With the DayZ standalone playable alpha release looming, I thought I would check out the mod version of the game. http://dayzdev.tumblr.com/
If you dont know, DayZ is an open world survival zombie game modification based off of the military sim ArmA 2 games. www.dayzmod.com Basically its hardcore mode survival against zombies and even more dangerous, other players. I have been watching vids for months and took advantage of a steam sale today to pick up ArmA 2. Anyone playing DayZ right now? Servers? Thoughts? I have a teamspeak we can use! |

I've checked out a shit ton of vids on the net and online reviews, etc. I have no interest in this game, whatsoever.
It looks quite boring and if I couldn't get pussy on a regular basis, I might be interested. |

Well, I guess it's just kinda... I dunno, dull?
I mean, it just seems like prick after prick killing you after you bust your ass finding shit and protecting your own ass from an occasional zombie. Just doesn't interest me I guess. |

This would make DayZ head and shoulders above any game out there currently and for the foreseeable future. It would be amazing.
Reddit Context The topic is how to give life value in the game. Quote:

They could make a real time morality indicator. I.e good players have a green hue to them, griefers and KOSers have a red hue. If you are green, killing red won't bring your morality down. Maybe make a yellow hue for somewhere I between.

If they made the Zombies so difficult that Lone Rangering was near impossible, I bet there would be considerably less KOS.

In real life, they would begin to get a reputation, bounties would be put up in the local communities as would warnings.

The thing I fear most out of anything is killing a friendly. I don't even have my first kill yet, and I'm dreading it.

That's because I know they where server hopping collecting loot, which means they where ready to rumble. Its much easier to be friendly on the coast~ TBH I have ALWAYS played friendly, and it has gotten me killed more times than I can count. |

My buddy has a really shitty internet connection so he's always getting hit by Zombies. Today we were in Elektro when I was checking the school for loot and he says he's going to watch the front then I hear him say that a guy is coming and I hear him say friendly. And as he's watching the guy a zombie hits him from behind and the other guy patched him up. So we gave the guy some food and water and went on our way. He only had an axe and we both had guns. It was a little tense, but my first friendly meeting in the game.
