I remember when I started and felt like being friendly is the way to go. I was fucking wrong! Not to say I haven't found a few good friends but it's a 90/10 bad to good ratio out there in terms of random friendly's. I have let unarmed people run to my hiding place and I tell them 'you can grab the guns but as soon as you grab them you run like hell away from me, don't look for me or I will kill you.' I feel that is the only way to survive because simply being friendly will get me killed. When I start from fresh and have nothing to lose I make the most friends because I don't care that I die, but as soon as I get a decent weapon I become a bushman. It's a shame :(
