Why does this game's community suck so much?

[CBT Enthusiast]

I end up having to just pump people full of bullets 9/10 times I meet anyone because they try to shoot me first. Not saying you have to be friendly and give out stuff to people or roleplay but it is just kind of boring to get shot at by someone with no mic and end up having to kill them instead of actually interacting with a player. Why does everyone play the game that way??

No mic

....because the majority confuses DayZ with counterstrike...

You can blame every youtuber for that tbh.

I spent at least 3 years asking myself same question and then I gave up lol
It's Dayz and KOS is part of Dayz and everything else is just "part of Dayz".
No matter what, we can not change how people see Dayz and what they think what Dayz is for real. There is just one thing "we" can do (people like me who love to talk and meet other people and not just shoot constantly) is to play how we love to play this game. I just came back after some time and in literally my 5th minute online I got killed with shotty lol
If you think about it for long time, you gonna start hating this game and that's wrong way to go, at least that's the way I was going. At the end I did not start just KOS everytime I see people just because 5/10 time someone will kill me. I kept being friendly guy looking for new adventure every time I press play! For me, meeting random people and going on adventure is what Dayz is all about and will stay forever.

the so called "content creators" call it "killing bandits" ..however stupid that might be, considering how they cry "STREAM SNIPER" as soon as they get the feel of the same...

It's funny how the line between killing bandits and killing bambis can be so thin "He has a gun, he's a bandit!" *pewpewpew*. Being a hero is just as lame of an excuse....no bandits, heroes nor cops and robbers in this game, only survivors.

^^If you woulda asked that a month or 2 ago I'd say Enclave but these guys don't have to bad of servers last time i checked https://www.dayzrp.com
I'm currently checking earth crisis out rn infected are actually quite a threat. Just needs a bit more pop

Because you need to pass a white-list process application in order to play with a community which respects semi-immersive rules or a semi stable in game economy. Not always an RP server, but most of them are.

Good white-list servers come and go with every hotfix and update of the main game due to the nature of mods and their sometimes unreliable authors.

There's probably an entire chronological history of dayzrp servers which achieved the same or similar goals with tweaks to their ultimate visions such as less cars, more planes, more currency or less loot.

You know you're in a good server when the staff/owner/host + admins have an active hand in the community, mostly for the sake of smoothing out conflicts with bugs or approving faction warfare.

Blame the streamers; most of the times you get KOS'd you can bet your bottom $ some basement lurker caught it on video. It's all about how many likes they can get on their vid and their bragging rights in the streamer community.
