Yep, that's the law of the land in this little virtual wonderland, it took three hostile encounters before I said "F*** it, if I don't know them, then they're hostile." Every single time I had something worth keeping, I spot a stranger, see a muzzle flash and read the common "YOU ARE DEAD" screen, M16A2 M203, DMR, and assorted survival gear for killing you before you kill me? Don't mind if I do. Good read though man, thanks for posting.
