I've actually been killed more regularly on minecraft than on dayz. : ) OP, just be very careful and avoid other players, or do what I do: Wear an ORANGE raincoat, red bike helmet, and ORANGE backpack, while yelling "OH HAI THAR" into text chat. 99% chance you get shot in the head. 1% something else happens. ??? Profit $$$$

I regret that I never played either HL. Shame on me, I guess.

CPR is a life prolonging technique, not a life saving one.

What did I miss.

Kill the underpant scum! In the name of Kane!

So the other day I found an orange raincoat. An ORANGE raincoat. Needless to say, I now had a will to survive. Which always means that within two minutes, I will meet a very unpleasant person who would like to fill me full of led and take my alkaline battery and pants. Reliable as usual, fate came true. Some guy with a Mosin saw me at a distance and started taking pot shots. (He was the world's worst sniper, lol) Having an empty shotgun and .45, I immediately walk into the open and surrender, while also dropping both (Again, empty) weapons onto the ground and walking a good 5 meters away from them. I type into text chat "Here, you get better things if you hold up people instead of killing them." (By then he was close enough to read my text, while still taking horribly aimed shots at me while running) No reply except moar bullets.I again pleaded "Please, have mercy, this is the first time I found an orange raincoat, and I've been traveling up the coast for a long time now." "YOU ARE DEAD" So I ask why, why do people shoot, even after they've surrendered and are obviously not a threat. Is it punishment for acting like a coward? Is it some sick sport? Or do they really think some guy in an orange raincoat is stupid enough to punch them for their mosin? Sorry if I sound like I'm raging about a death. :P I actually laugh usually at the creative and hilarious ways I've died. It's kind of my specialty. But this was kind of... Disappointing? I dunno. Just kinda lame. TEAL DEER: Why would you shoot someone who surrendered and dropped their weapons 10 meters away?

This is why I make sure people are corrected when talking about this. Yeah yeah, act all annoyed, call me a nazi, whatever. It could save someone's life.

Hiring as the opposing force. I will give you a weapon of your choice, ammo, food, water, and proper Nod uniform. Peace through Power, my Brothers!

^This In the name of Kane!

If I can recruit enough players, the Brotherhood of Nod will be waiting. One Vision, One Purpose! "The Rivers will flow with the blood of those who oppose us."

I can spend upwards of 12 hours straight on DayZ and ARMA. (Only beaten by my 48 hour record playing C&C) Also, what if you're playing with a friend? Then you'd have to run away from each other before disconnecting.

Do the absolute opposite of what I do. 1. Do not wear a bright orange raincoat. 2. Do not eat rotten fruit. 3. Do not panic and hide in a bush when see another player in town. (You will get mauled) 4. Do not drop your weapons and put your hands up after someone has already fired 3 shots at you. 5. Is the exception. Using Solid Snake soundboards to say "I WANT THE LIES TO END NAO" somehow increases trust.

I think one problem here is that players know there's 20-something year old person behind the keyboard playing as that child. Besides, if people think twice before shooting children, they should think twice before shooting an adult as well.

IMHO I think it would detract that feeling of "Oh crap, someone's been here!" paranoia feeling..

People like you need to be faced with a hacked in T90.

And what if you had to disconnect perhaps because you needed the computer for something else? You'd have to ctrl+alt+delete just to end the game.

This game actually has some of the best community out of any other games. (At least on the forums.) You wanna see a horrible community? Go to the main section of Battlelog. (Off-topic guys are cool, though.)

You put them under your gas mask which is under your motorbike helmet, of course! Watch the spitting cobras cry.

Same here.

You can throw up?

You obviously were low on blood, or under some other effect. I've never been one-conscioused, it takes about a dozen hits from a bat to knock me out.

What's everyone's obsession with making the game "beatable" anyway?

I think that somebody needs to make a C&C mod of ARMA 2 first.

Not as simple as you think...
