Greetings everyone, Don't shoot! I'm also a new player and am currently on my fourth life. My first ended from food poisoning so that was a lesson learned; don't eat bad food. The second went much better as I worked my way down the coast getting geared up. I had several weapons and was chopping my way through a zombie in Electro when a few more jumped me. I pulled out my SKS and opened fire, since I was outnumbered and bleeding. As I was bandaging myself someone yelled "Friendlies in electro! Are you okay buddy?" and then killed me with an axe. Lesson learned, never bandage in the street and always move after you shoot. The third, I spawned in just south of Solnichniy (sp?) and tabbed out to look at a map and figure out where I was. When I tabbed back in there were two guys going to work on me with a crowbar and a garden hoe. I tried to run but was knocked unconsious, and then killed. I could hear them laughing but they were speaking Spanish and I only know just enough Spanish to make them glad they killed me... Hope they enjoyed my flashlight. My fourth life begand near Solnichniy also, but this time I abandoned the coast immediately. I ran inland towards Dolina and looted along the way. I found enough clothes with pockets, food, drink, and laid hands on two weapons in Dolina, a double rifle and a shotgun. I sawed the shotgun off and headed for the hills. It's much less croweded inland, and I've managed to stay hidden much of the time. I'm only aware of one person that has laid eyes on me and it was only for a brief second before I gave him the slip. I could see him stalking me from my hiding spot and was prepared to shoot him had he even looked my way, but luckily he kept moving. I've yet to kill a player, but I'm sure the time will come.
