You don't seem to be very good at aiming for their heads... They drop fast if you do.

I've owned Dayz standalone for around 3 days roughly and have had mixed encounters. The first being at a night time server, a player crept up on me crouching behind a wall but I spoke in microphone letting him know I spotted him, he came out of cover waved at me then we went our own way, or so I thought.. I entered a building and then started hearing bullet impact sounds, the dude who crept up on me was hacking me to pieces with an axe and I died. There have been the random encounter of meeting a guy with a gun then being shot down like a dog. Then the encounters of being sniped by an unseen enemy and dying as I ran towards the bushes... But then there's been players with guns who approach me after I hold both hands up. One told me to run in a German accent, I started asking them if we can team up, he was repeating "RUN" and I was like "cmon dude we can team up", he takes out an axe and kills me in two swings.. Ok that didn't work.. Then there was one time where I met up with dude and said hi, while he pointed a gun at me then suddenly he gets shot and killed infront of me, a second player holding a gun approaches from the right, claims he saved me from the first guy as the first guy was trying to kidnap me, I say thanks and run along... Then there was this time I approached this interesting castle on a hill, noticed a player running around, we're both axe warriors with helmets, I stand in the open until he notices me and he runs for cover, after a minute of hiding from eachother we slowly approach, then suddenly to the left a gun clad, army fatigued warrior stands to our left I suddenly put my arms up to surrender, as the other axe warrior approach he appears to think that I am surrendering to him however as he gets closer he notices the dude with the gun, who then tells us to run away. We both did. My latest encounter was at the airfieild in the north west. I was fullly armed to the teeth with m4 and plenty of ammo, halfway through the airfield I see two other players together with M4's who appear to be tactically evading me. Seeing this ass a threat I open fire first, they both run into the woods near the aircraft shelters and I don't see them again, but I still cautiously scouted the area with my gun raised before feeling content in their full retreat, potentially to another server to avoid conflict with me... Anyway these encounters all contribute to a mixed and interesting gaming experience and I look forward to more.
