***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

Guys, I have read the last few pages of this thread and I have to say I am very disappointed to see the petty remarks have made their way back into this thread. I am also very disappointed at the petty RTMs I receive, from multiple members, who are obviously looking to cause trouble. This stops now.

This is a final warning to everyone. If the petty bickering and remarks don't stop, this thread will be deleted. It won't be closed. It won't be moved to the archive. I'll just straight out delete it, and all the useful posts in here will be lost forever. I don't want to do it, but I quite sick of seeing the behaviour of some of the people in here.

Each of you will no doubt have opinions on who is responsible for it. That is irrelevant. Please keep the thread on topic. Please keep talk about other games to a minimum (unless the situation makes the comments relevant). Please drop all the petty bickering, digs and snipes.

This is the your final warning, please take heed of it, and feel free to quote it at anyone who appears to have missed it.

Not had to do it myself, and im not sure you can drink directly from it, but if you have a canteen or a water bottle you need to put it into your hand and scroll to "fill bottle"

Remember if you have purifying tablets combine them with the full bottle or you run the risk of getting sick, as some one posted earlier your much better off using the dayzdb map and finding a wter fountain as you can spam it multiple times and get rid of your thirst for ages with out the risk of sickness

I agree with what your saying but how about temp-banning the people who are ruining it for the others? Blanket punishment isn't the answer because it is the minority who are causing the issues. If this thread is deleted, they will only continue their trolling and childishness in another thread.
 
its better not to dwell on it as its only derailing the thread more, but its obvious to everyone who the trolls are. Same people who had the previous threads deleted.

/back on topic Ive not played this for a good few weeks now, although im following the updates closely.

Will just wait till the game is in a better state, but dont feel like ive wasted my cash on the standalone at all. I could be playing now but its just not the gameplay i want at the moment.

Once more survival elements are introduced ill be more interested
 
Just want to interject that it's silly to label anyone who speaks against this game as "childish" or a "troll"... I've had my share of things to say about the development but haven't really said a lot for a while now because I've not had anything much to add that either I or someone else hasn't already said...

But I am still following the thread as I have an interest in the game... I like to think if I do find something relevant to comment on again I will have the freedom to do so without being instantly shouted down and/or banned/suspended

I can't stop playing it. My friend convinced me to buy it on 13th Jan. I tried the mod a few months back and hated it. Always been an Op Flash, Arma, Arma 2 fan. Gave this ago, hated it. Went back on and had an experience with bandits...... I fell in love with the game. I realised it was a game that didn't hold your hand, didn't give you any help at all and just decided to be an absolute horror to you. It left you wanting more and if you were for some reason murdered and lost all of your gear, it made you more determined than ever before. Minus the odd bug the game is superb and for an Alpha, it is amazing. I can't wait to see how it develops in the coming months. So far they have achieved so much and it can only get better. It is a community based game/simulation and if you aren't into that thing then fair enough, but you are really missing out and should give it a chance like me. In the past 15days I have put in 64 hours (the most I have ever spent on a game). It must be special lol.

Positive and negative feedback is always welcome in these threads and I think it is much needed, especially when a game is in development. At the end of the day it is a discussion board. However there are some idiots who just use the internet to cause arguments and misery for others.

The problem is that there are people who have no idea what they're talking about when it comes to games development, talking authoritatively about games development, which just gets frustrating.

It's not positive or negative feedback, it's moaning for the sake of it because they have no idea what goes into games development, that and people not quite understanding what it means to be an alpha build.

I'll continue to keep an eye on the thread and if it can be saved by temporarily suspending people, I will. I hate deleting threads, especially ones that contain useful information, but it the attitudes of some of the people in here don't change I won't have many options left.

Suspend them, and then edit their posts with a "this is why we can't have nice things" meme.
 
I vote you suspend spoffle for clearly trying to cause trouble for people.

let it go FFS and move on.

tbh you might as well just close the thread until a decent patch hits and there is something new to talk about

Welcome to Dayz :p

I always logout in one of those small shed things that you have to crawl into. Theres 100's of them all over the map. Some out in the middle of no where. Loot doesn't spawn in them so the chances of someone being in there when you come to spawn back in is limited.
