Leodor (DayZ)

When the bandit skin was still around, the "fear" effect of becoming a bandit helped me not shoot everyone. Now that I am equipped, and there are currently no repercussions, it will be open season, simply to avoid someone else doing it to me and erasing my hard work. I will agree that the survivor/bandit dichotomy was not ideal, this no consequences idea is not working either, IMO.

I have 0 murders and 0 bandit kills lifetime, HOWEVER I have seen other players, and approach cautiously, or if I have not been spotted, I retreat. I am not expecting this to last forever, but if the only thing to do in this game was collect food and kill zombies I would no longer be playing. I now have an AK-74 and 8 mags. I am about ready to go on the offensive. And it will not be on the newbie beaches. Killing someone with nothing I want, and only a markarov to defend themselves is not even fun. Getting the drop on someone who is kitted out, is. PvP (the threat of death) makes this mod, whether you like it or not. Zombies, if you can make it into a building are not even a threat as long as you carry a proper amount of ammo.
