best troll comment ever


you deserve a cookie sir

make sure you video it!

i love watching the group vids of day-z with audio n errathang

BF2 was the best.

Deal with it.

I'm the only one out of my group of friends with ARMAII... I'm not willing to go it alone with the latest patch, way way way too many zombies in the towns

Does that game have a significant learning curve? I keep meaning to get it, but if It's complicated starting out then I need to be in the right mindset - a mindset I'm not really in ATM.

Oh wait... DayZ is a survival mod? My original Q in reference to ARMA2 standard.

I'd been playing ARMA II well before Day Z came along so I'm probably not the best judge for that now... but yeah, it has a reasonable learning curve. If you were coming from BF3 I wouldn't expect it to be too bad, just a lot more realistic, heaps more controls and being a little clunky in general.

Don't you hate it when you carry your team sooooo hard, and then they still manage to lose at the last second?

I wasn't even try-harding for most of the game and I still got more kills than anyone else, by far. I just don't get how it's possible to be as bad as almost everyone on my team was. If the other team is so bad that I kill tons of them when I'm barely even trying, how is my team not good enough to win? It makes no sense D:

Edit: @What Frosty was talking about all the problems with BF3, out of allllll the bugs and stupid changes they made, the only thing that REALLY pisses me off in this game is idiot team mates. If I'm playing with friends, I'm almost always having more fun than I have in any other game.

i saw an awesome cheater yesterday. wouldnt take damage as you shot him. he would knife you and tke your place on the team. worst cheat i have EVER seen.

Yes, I'll try to remember to video it

I tried Arma, I think it may have been a demo for the first one, and the controls were pretty absurd. I remember playing a chopper mission, or maybe it was the tutorial.. and it had so many keys to fly the dang thing. It made me yearn for BF2 styled controls bc flying chopper is so easy in that. Plus the strange way of selecting things via menu when most games just bind simple tasks to 1 key, ie: 'i' opens inventory, etc. This is just how I remember it, like the went out of there way to make simple tasks difficult to perform.

I suppose if someone gave it enough time and learned all of the keys/tricks it would be fine, but at first it just seems unnecessarily complicated. Hopefully it's not to bad, I hope to jump onto the DayZ train one of these days

Actually I downloaded ARMA 2 free just to get used to the controls, so I can have that much less of a hassle with the actual mod. Having to worry about which key does what, plus that pack of zombies over there plus being wary about bandits/survivors in the area, may get out of hand fast lol.

Oh, this is a BF3 thread you say? I'm pretty well bored/done with this game. It's only redeeming when I can get someone to work closely with via TS/Vent. Joining random games just doesn't get it for me anymore, unless its a TDM where there really isn't any teamwork to be had anyway. (Plus its the Chimp Challenge, MOAR FOLDING)
