So how's things...

[Guest Beni]

Hello again DayZRP... Man, it's weird typing on the forums seriously again.

Myself and a handful of the boys are planning on coming back through for a while, just a try a couple things out. Now I'm not going to lie, the characters that're planned, many of you will find " offensive " but we really couldn't care less. So, I have a few questions, some are based on lore and some are general:

• How's Livonia? I mean, if we're coming back it's kinda inevitable we'll have to buy it... 
• Is the whole " loot " issue thing sorted? With like stuff barley spawning on one side of the map... Or something like that.
• What kinda guns we working with now?
• Is the map just a bunch of hot spots or is it all spaced out?
• Where is Livonia set?
• Are cars still fucked?
  
  That's pretty much it. Peace.

Sup Kozlov leader! 

Livonia is pretty cool. Many people play it and you can find people basically anywhere. At the moment, you can find military loot in civ houses, so it isn't too hard to get gear. I can't help you with guns... Livonia has hot spots but like I said before, people are all over the place so it isn't hard to find people. There are new cars and drug dealer cars on the server so if Beni wants to deal some good shit, there is a nice black bmw out there. 

Give it a go though, I've had a lot of fun recently.

• Livonia is pretty good. Smaller map with new things to see and encounter, such as car wrecks actually being wrecked versions of the vanilla cars which can have salvageable parts.
• Loot is fairly well balanced, lower tier loot near the spawn regions as expected, and higher tier loot the further you get away from spawn on both maps. Roland has tinkered with the numbers a bit and how they spawn, so shouldn't be too hard to get your hands on a decent weapon.
• In terms of high end loot, there's the AKM, AK 74, m4, m417, m16, SAW, SVD, SVT, a few new shotguns, Saiga, and a handful of other guns. Plenty of diversity now.
• Livonia (the only map worth playing on) has things fairly spread out, with RP hubs in various areas on the map. For obvious reasons I won't go into too much detail here, but be aware that most of it is around the edges of the map, as the inner areas of the map mostly consist of bombed out towns (which do typically spawn military loot btw)
• Livonia is Polish territory on the Western edge of Russia. (though you wouldn't know that from the amount of Chernarussian immigrants)
• Cars can be a little janky at times, but are fairly stable. Just be careful if you are driving towards a hub that has a lot of built up buildings like Sitnik, as roughly 1KM out it will load the buildings in and may cause the car to rubberband for a second. There's also a hummer now though, so that's fun.

• Just be careful with this part. If someone finds your RP OOCly offensive, and asks you to stop, yet you persist with it, it can be seen as Abusive Behavior.

 

Otherwise welcome back. Look forward to running into you mate.

But doesn't this conflict with this rule?

Quote

3.1 You are required to role play your character at all times while in game. No OOC events or communication may take priority over your role play. You are not allowed to ignore other players attempts to role play with you.

Surely someone getting offended OOC is an OOC event and as of which, shouldn't take control over my role play?

Not trying to start shit, just always been confused about that. The term " If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen " comes to mind.

Put this ask the staff up due to a verdict similar to what I mentioned being put up 

[Guest Beni]

*Sigh*

@The Kozlov's

Come on boys, we've got some stuff to do.

Not sure if I understood you correctly, but Livonia is an independent country, not Polish territory. Country: Livonia, Playable region: Nadbór Region, Nationality: livonian, Language: polish. Just so there's no confusion!

[Player 1]

Livonia is a lot of fun. There are many factions. Danish Soldiers, NATO Soldiers, Wolves, Bears, Medical Teams, Irish Travelors, Mafia, and random dudes and dudets in many different cities across the region. 

My favorite are the valleys and hills and beautiful views. 

What we need is a Trade Economy.

Great start, Beni. Why not give some insight on that - a lot of people liked your rp. "Offensive"  or "Extreme"- is overrated in this community, i doubt there is something that hasn't been around. People calling themselves white struggle, hunting "faggots & black people  < rolle's forum thing will change that word", pedos, rapists, psychos. Don't mean to ruin the fun - but instead of telling that you dont really care - maybe show what you care bringing into the server :^)

Not sure if "discussions" are the right pick on this. Anyways I'll give you some things you need to check if you haven't been around for a while.

Spoiler

Edit: here the mod list - it will you show guns& cars being used atm.

As long as you don't go OTT shouting racial slurs or something along those lines you'll be fine.

Livonia's a lot of fun rn I can't deny. There's a wide variety of groups and some very interesting lore / world building being done by the LM team, shit that people can do even if it does involve more NPC characters. It's honestly great.

The difference is between our (our meaning myself and my friends) extreme and offensive is that we actually knew what we were doing, had motivations and background on why we hated many types of people. Never once did we just run around dropping offensive words and such We never allowed our-self to become just another crew running around being homophobic, racist ect. Of course we care on what we bring to the server, we don't intend to be trollish. I meant that we don't care if people get offended by our role play. If this goes to OOC reports then we as a crew shall deal with it when it comes to it. 

If people are finding us offensive and extreme, it's just another way of the RP being more real, giving people more of a reason to be afraid of the big wide world.

Aye, like I said... We've done many racial groups and group's that're seen as offensive. We always did it correctly.

All I meant to say is ... coming back with "we dont care" does not sound very open minded, instead you could have just said what you actually want to provide. As I said , people liked your rp and you've done good with most projects.
No need to get defensive.

Hope the links will help you out.

That ain't me being defensive, just me replying. 

Also, yeah I'm really not open minded... I think everyone that knows me, knows that. Also, I'll check the links out. Appreciate it.

Welcome back

And I honestly couldn't care less that you and your boys were gone, or that you've returned.

[Nozzy]

Lmao some wild shit going on here. But flaming is alright if staff is doing it i guess. 

If a legend like Beni is making a return perhaps it's time i bought Livonia then? Can't pass on meeting one of the greatest roleplayers in game. So far i think the map didn't look interesting but i've heard both good and bad about Livonia

Yeah to be fair, the map looks pretty good. Yeah I've heard good and bad, but tbf when we're not blinded by nostalgia is Chernarus really all that hot?

I put on a different accent and fire a rifle. One of the best honestly... @Blitz. Grisha will always be remembered as one of the greats. Also Scott Barnaby was a great one too (Can't find Frosty's account)

Chernarus is pretty much dead at this point you won't find anything interesting on there. It gets max 30-35 people a day so you're better off playing on Livonia

Be nice to do like a Red Dead Redemption I kinda map. Having like, coastal/mid Chernarus on one side and then Livonia on another, separated by water. 


So like that. Only... Chernarus and Livonia.

Welcome back Benedikt, I do hope you won't be too offensive. All this uni work over the last weeks has gotten me alot more sensitive to the issues of the lesser fortunate. I will be watching you closely, especially those private messages you are sending me.
