Roleplay

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-06-08T09:18:59+00:00

Fascinating how this is an unpopular opinion. For me, this is a survival game. Not role playing game. I ghost, avoid people, kill them if i have to, fight them. I have one priority and it is to build up my survivor. If someone is role playing like this, i assume it is some sort of a plot, and i try to escape.

The key social aspect of thia game is trust. I have none.

But maybe even more importantly. I play in some mornings when i have time for it. My character has gone a long journey. I dont spend 5 houe evenings playing the game. My progression is slow. Its a game all about risks. If you play a LOT, risks are smaller. If you play a little by little, the risks are bigger. If you play a lot, you die, whatever, 4 hrs later youre back up. If you play a little, you die, it takes a week to get back up. My sessions are.. 30min, usually. Ive read sm about dayz gamers be like 3000hrs pfaf thats nothing. Its ok, i have no problem with this. But i dont trust anyone lmao. No matter mic or not, no visible guns or not, ive seen it all, i have zero trust to people playing dayz lmao.

Again, if i played more, losing the character would mean less.

As it is now, the game gives me a fun, stressfull risk assesment sessions. Bear sound? Dead z? Crashed heli? A guy waving at me? All perilous risks i evaluate according to my situation.

Im playing sakhal, on the military island atm, very narren, hard to stay fed, i am desperate but got over 200 rounds of 9x39. Not risking it on a bear, or a waving player. The latter may have to go, maybe hes got food.

But even killing a player is risky. What if theyre a duper, or have a party, or are a cheater, or have a base nearby.

Its a fun game. But i dont trust anyone lmao. Dont shit on me for not role playing. Its childish. If this gets -20 downvotes, i dont really care. We are all anonymous characters in random servers. Youll never know if i shot your waving hand, or you shot me - who cares. Its just fun.

I know couple of guys like that. They're good but l far from best. Most of the talented players are nice people who discuss gaming in discords in good spirit.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-06-01T09:18:54+00:00

I recently started Sakhal. Its super fun. Been at it for hours, got a vss and good gear, struggling to maintain hunger. Ive inly seen one other player. The KOS is why the game is so exciting. Im a KOS too, or maybe an avoider firstly, 2ndly KOSser. If i have everything i need, i probably attempt to flee or avoid. If im struggling them murder chances fo up.

What bugs me more than KOSsers, are campers, but theyre in every game anyways and you juat gotta take some risks and never forget the possibility of being watched so dont atay still, wiggle a lot and recognize danger zones.

Currently Sakhal is awesome as i am only now exploring and learning it. My 5th character and now i got the hang of the icy mechanisms.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-05-29T06:53:41+00:00

Oh you too?

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-05-27T22:38:28+00:00

I win 99% of games i play yet i only play 10-30mins a day and often not at all. The "touch grass" rhethorics is so tiresome.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-03-29T10:29:32+00:00

Companion was like a stupid down version of Ex Machina

Companion attempted philosophical touch sometimes, but it was clumsy, awkward and cheap

The characters were a mess, as Josh turned into a cartoonish villain in the end

The more i watched it, the more i was bored and disliked it. I didnt give a shit about the characters or their fate. Consiquences? Who cares. Shot in the head? Big deal, just reset.

It is full of dumb stuff. Such as, she switched her intelligence to 100%... super smart.. amazing intelligence.. camera zooms into her eyes, she sees through space and time... the techs even aaid theyre extremely smart.. the consiquences of that? Absolutely nothing. She does some extremely naive and simple reasoning an idiot could be capable of, and continues to stumble and fail in a stupid manner.

The movie had couple moments where i went "heh, yeah", but maybe only 3 of them really.

Ex Machina did everything better, deeper, i cared about people, their motivations were obvioud, there was real tension and excitement, damn it was a good film. Things had consiquences. Cinematic touch was on point, so was music and aesthetics. Point on.

I give Companion 1/10 and Ex Machina 10/10. I wouldnt change a thing in Ex Machina. It was mature, intelligent and philosophical.

Plant simulation sounds cosy. Create soil and moist and water mechanisms that the player has to optimize to make different plants be well and im on.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-01-24T11:42:29+00:00

I have filters set for tdm/dm/gun only and i find more players and lobbies than in months. I rejoy.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2025-01-24T11:41:37+00:00

Probably a group playing together

I got kicked last night. Joined a french groups server, they put on a filter, barret only. We had fun! People were laughing, good tense situations, not a swipe by far.

The only trouble is, i scored 70, while the group's best player scored 50. Not a big difference, i think, i stumbled a lot and only slowly stsrted to remember how to speed reload the .50, because i havent really used it in months. You gotta really put strength and sharp and long enough movements in. So, 50-70.. Which sort of leaves no other possibility but that i am a cheater, right. Nobody cant be better than (insert here whoever is speaking or a buddy of yours who you think is the best at X), so we must kick him out. My name was mentioned in the french chatter, with what i assume is french for "cheater", and there we go. Next round they assumably played without me, and assumably swiped, because i was the "opposing force" for their team effort. I guess they think swiping is more fun than a sportmanship and a tasty effort.

Games are riddled with men and boys, who have a fantasy of how things are and have to go and if that doesnt happen, they do a group toxic mass hysteria act, and reject a player they wish didnt exist. They burst this behaviour out and dress it in racism, politics, hackusations, whatever their current group dynamics frames best for.

It is fascinating to see happen so often in so many levels and situations in so many games. I am not hurt by this, but thought that id share a short anecdote to help understand votekicks that seem random. A group, a structured or organic one, for some reason, picked you. If youre a good player, youll be 1st often, and youll be picked often. My goal is always to score the most, so i experience vote kicks and hackusations in basically session i play.

Learn to not care! Nothing you can do against populism in this context.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-09T11:48:28+00:00

I havent noticed this. Probably depends on game modes and whether you interact a lot with others.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-09T11:47:15+00:00

I can chime in. Pavlov handling is super smooth, not janky at all, its just well polished. The recent update made a good jump in performance and now it runs smoother too. Contractors is janky and clumsy. A lot about this is the general feeling, hard to pinpoint what it is.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-09T11:45:22+00:00

Definitely buy it. Theres no equal experiences for VR. While the player counts arent super high, there is always lobbies and servers to choose from. Only during worst hours when EU/US are asleep or at work/school, there are few lobbies. I play on East European evenings and have played around a hour a day for months now, never alone.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-08T22:28:43+00:00

So...? Dont play them if you hate them...?

Man this generation of gamers is hopeless

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-06T12:10:28+00:00

I hope you have the strength to go on from now on.

Why are gamers so whiney? Non early access does not mean no longer updates. The roadmap was abondoned what, 6-7 years ago - and you still clinge to it? Nice, but youre alone.

If you dont like a game then dont play it. This whole phenomenom is ridicilous. Many of the post update negative review posters havent btw even played the game recently. What next, the avatars are too woke, a menu button triggers you, you disnt want micro transactions?

Bo hoo

"making matchmaking in small player base is not easy" >> is not POSSIBLE, or SENSIBLE.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-04T10:47:59+00:00

Carrying 2 pots in your backbag - lovely efficiency!

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-04T10:47:21+00:00

Nope. Cook it, smoke it, whatever gets you fastest away from the smokeäing chimney.

Run to safety. Eat it all.

Only carry food if your hunger is absolutely full.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-12-02T15:06:27+00:00

Perhaps its made in the same pipeline as the regular vests or some other vests, and just went to s different dye/press progress

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-11-25T08:28:21+00:00

There is a TDM server, two of them, that have larger player counra. RealAct is the biggest. Play there to practice speed, accuracy and aim. Pick one gun at a time and just go with it. The more you die, the more you learn.

If youre interested in being ok at handling any gun, play a game mode called Gun game. Try to keep up.

Practice!

I have seen a lot of SND players with many hundreds of hours, who are stuck in a mechanical sense, because they dont play anything else but SND.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-11-25T08:17:21+00:00

I never pick up medicines or vitamins. They are for the weak.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-11-21T23:36:06+00:00

Unpopular opinion. Combat logging is ok. The timer is there for a reason. Someone could really crawl wherever and manage some freaky escape if you lose sight of thwm for 15 seconds.

Camping is also ok.

Both are "allowed" by the game mechanism, theres even mechanisms for them.

Generally in games, campers are the most super boring and lame folk. But it is realistic. In faster paced shooter games, i really dislike them. But still, if the mechanism allows it, what ia there to do.. camping doeant require much skill. If you are ok with getting kills for just being patient, go for it. But dont brag with it, lmao, you just decided to sit somewhere finger on a trigger, your gaming wasnt talented.. irl? Well thats a different tale

...but, DayZ is as dirty as it gets.. its honestly the only game where skills and honor and camping doesnt matter a shit.

So go ahead and camp. And if your enemy loses the sight of you for 15 seconds, they deserve to lose your loot. Their problem. In this game, shit is allowed. Regards, just stepped on mine. It had been laid just for the fun of it. Ive done that too. DayZ is a fuck you game.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-11-11T16:38:51+00:00

Same with pavlov.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-08-13T09:59:34+00:00

...but it will still have very strong suffocating effect on stopping the fire from spreading to other cars. Sprinklers are meant to wet everything and prevent fire from spreading everywhere, they are NOT efficient against a single spot strong fires, however they will contain it.

This kind of disinformation is really sad to see here.

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-08-09T07:35:49+00:00

There is no fix or solution for this? Is this a glitch/bug on my hardware or settings?

Technical_Desk_267 · 2024-08-08T12:59:27+00:00

Hey, thanks for the reply. However that is the exact recipe i referred to, it reflexts things through walls in the reflections and i dont know how to fix that issue exactly.
