I fail to see what is so fun about lying there for hours waiting for someone to pass in front of your gun, but then, I don't "get" Life mods and League of Legend either To get the most votes, you should use a zombie or a skull as the overview picture, and call your mission "Zombie Sniper Overkill on Arma Life DayZ". Instant gold
I can understand that sniping is fun because you see clearly your kills through scope and the enemy has little chance of hitting you back. But I think sniping and long range optics get boring very fast. I personally prefer CQB, carbines and full auto. And not knowing whether or not you killed an enemy is part of the thrill.

However, the number of votes is too low to get stars. OTOH, a guy that grabs the original MX textures, desaturates them and uploads them to the workshop gets instant 300 votes with five stars.
I don't understand it either. I think there's some serious snow ball effect and what content gets to be the snow ball each time seems quite random. I read somewhere that you need a certain amount of votes AND subscribers to get a rating and that rating is not only based on the votes (up/down) themselves but also on the subscribers.

Yeah, that would be nice. I guess that's too much to ask, even for free content
