Thank you Zed for helping have insight on these things. It helps me understand the motivation behind the actions. I've never really gotten into pvp in any game where it is an option. If I'm forced to than I will and I will enjoy it. I never said dying made me mad or angry at another player. I was just not understanding the motives. I have figured out that my biggest issue is not playing with someone. I have 5 and soon 6 friends that play. But not together due to time. I guess I will avoid other players like the plague. Its nice to see where the community stands on this though. Thank you everyone for your input. :)

From my recent experiences just shoot everything that moves. Don't bother with the friendly thing because it will just get you murdered. Been there done that, doesn't work. Good luck. See you on the battlefield.

*edit clean up It has gotten to the point that I must shoot everyone I see. Because not only does everyone shoot in cold blood, they fake friendship and stab you in the back. I now resort to being as quiet around people as possible and never trusting a thing that moves. I would just really hate to have my game-play come to this. Since I really enjoy interaction with other players, (The good kind) lol.

And from that non sequitur, I'm going to guess it's the former. Thanks for the help. -.-

De-Evolution of the Human Race Recently I've been nothing but murdered in cold blood by other survivors. Multiple times. Save one experience. Since this game is a apocalyptic scenario where surviving is the most important thing. Do whatever you have to do to survive. I've been playing for a couple days now. And I've only been able to make one friend who didn't immediately shoot me on sight. That is saying a lot for the human race as a whole. That in an end world event, it would be nothing but murder to the few survivors left. I am a really nice guy in the real world. And the actions up to this point that I've taken in the game reflect that. In game I help people, and I don't kill others. But, every time (except for one) I've been murdered in cold blood. Not even aiming at the person, sometimes I didn't even have a weapon. Can we call this game an experiment to see the ugly underbelly of a world gone infected? So I'm asking the community as a whole, to help me out here. Is every time I run into someone else in this game going to end up in death? (Can we see the statistics Rocket to suggest otherwise?) What course of action do you recommend in order to not be killed by other survivors. Avoid them at all costs? Shoot first? I have a hard time believing that I should Kill on Sight everyone I meet... What do you do? Discuss. P.S. Does this bring to light the darkest of animal instincts in humans? Rocket has created a mod-game where we can use our fight or flight mechanics. And quite honestly, its depressing. I would really hate to see something that could have rewarding experiences end up in me getting murdered and the entire community playing devolve into killing EVERYTHING that moves. Treat survivors as super deadly zombies? =US 50 Seattle 14= Expect a Bad Day
