^this. Because thats a really long quote. This is what killing everyone on sight breeds. New players join and want to learn and explore. All they learn is to kill everything that moves. No growth. Also, I'm from the west coast of the USA.

Resources are far from infinite, unless you're sever hopping. Risk is that other KoS people are doing exactly what they're doing. Spawn in behind you and shoot you. Explore the map? They added more to it.

I am a veteran of DayZ mod. I still don't believe in running around KoS everyone I see.

Are you the guys who tried to hold me up and hit me with a fire extinguisher?

I can't see around every corner especially while watching my 2 1 year old twins. It doesn't make me a noob. It doesn't mean I'm unaware. It means irl sometimes happens while gaming. I call them noobs for spawn killing every fresh spawn they see. Waste of rescourses and unnecessary risk. There is plenty to do elsewhere in the map, not just waste time and rescources on freshies.

Dude, I didn't know they were there till I was literally right next to them. Like arms reach.

Sure seems like it. With they'd explore. There is much more in the north now, unfinished, but still there. Was in a 6 man server(including me and my 3 friends), and ran into 2 of them, and they didn't KoS. Both parties agreed that it was nice to run into someone friendly for once.

Spawning that close with nothing to lose, didn't really matter.

Close enough. Ok lets start from the beginnjng then instead of summing up. I spawned in komarovo, ran to balota, checked the barracks, went over to the armory(green building), doors were all shut, checked bottom floor, went upstairs, opened top door, 2 people with m4s laying on the ground in front of it open fire without a word as soon as the door opens. Respawn. Komarovo. I'm irritated at them for camping balota like douches. IM close so I run to balota. Move around the back of the buildings, check the hangers, atc tower, last armory. I run across to the tents. Axe is on my back whole time. I run around a tent and come under fire from same 2 people at point blank range. I move back around the tent, yell I'm friendly. They proceed to tell me they do.t care and are gonna kill me anyway. I draw my axe, move around their horrible spraying, axe one in the back and try to move around the second guy. Get shot. Guy I hut is perma unconscious and is bitching about losing his gear. Respawn. 100 m east of tents. I run to the tents, conscious one has his back turned. I run up and start hitting him with my fists, knock him out. Recovers, tries to run off. Bitches his mags don't work. I knock him out again. Take his gun and 2 mags, ammo was loose (go figure it didn't fire dumbest). Shoot him, guy with axe runs up behind me and surprises me. I hit him with 1 shot. He kills me with his axe saying that he's gonna kill me even though I clearly stated over Mic I had no quarrell with him. He does so. I spawn again !00 m east of tents. I run back, see guy finally gain consciousness and kill guy with axe, then he kills me again while I was trying to avoid him. Arguing ensues how they are douchebag spawn killers and need to go north to tdm and how I play the game wrong. Better? Now please stop bitching in my thread how my story is sketchy and that I need to make a novel to make sense. I wanted thoughts, not flaming.

I know they hadn't just spawned because the building had every door shut. They were lying on the upper room right in front of the door waiting for new spawns. And it takes me 5 mins to loot balotas tents, 10 to loot the whole airfield. 2 to consolidate if needed. I also typed it quickly, most people so t like reading novels on forums.

I only open fire like that if they don't respond to direct chat. It's there, so I use it. Up north is where it should be dangerous, since normally to head up there you're already geared up to some extent.

Before another person posts that I had my axe out.... If you read all the posts, I've repeatedly said the axe was on my back. I was able to get it out and tag one before dying from the other. All this happened at point blank range. I did not know they were there untill I was literally within arms reach since I was looking with free look in a different direction when I ran into them. I also yelled friendly and that I was a new spawn before I removed the axe from my back while under fire. To clarify why I went back. Since I spawned so close after being new spawned troll killed before that while they were laying in an armory with all the doors closed waiting for some bambi to walk in and just unload on them, I figured I'm come back and make them lose their gear, which judging my direct chat... They were pretty upset. I never told them they were playing it wrong, I told them they were playing it like douche bags and need to TDM off the coast where players there have no defense against guns.

I completely agree. After the incident 10 minutes later the guy I killed ran up on me in the tents and tried to box me. I kicked his ass easily being as we were on a level playing field. I understand this is an alpha, I don't bitch about the bugs. When I get a bug, I report it. My issue here is just people sitting in coastal spawns trolling damn near defenseless players instead of exploring or venturing.

I'm not a new comer. -_- I just can't stand all these idiot CoD fags. I yelled on direct that I'm a friendly and a newspawn and they responded with "I don't care, we're gonna kill you anyway." I mean really? What fun is that? If they want TDM, go up north, not sit on the coast and kill new spawns.

I've been playin DayZ since July 2012, not everyone was KoS then. Balota may be a high loot place, but I loot there and leave inland. Not hang around and shoot new spawns like a total douche. 1: Axe was on my back. 2: I didn't know they were there till they started shooting at me point blank.

Saved a guy from some zeds, helped him loot some, shot me while i was int he middle of answering his question.

I think 10 second for your body to stay behind would be better, a lot can happen in 1 minute. The exit timer is a stupid idea. I hated it in the mod. Body staying behind for 10-15 seconds is much better.
