First, is he in a group? Yes? Kill them unless they are too few to pose a threat. Which means i have a larger group. Second, does he or the group act suspicious or aggressive? Kill them. Third, ask if friendly. No response = NO means that they/he is not which means death. Foruth, if yes to friendly. A cautious advance along with some chatting. If the other guy turns threatening or does something i interpret as hostile. He is dead. Fifth, can replace all. Do i have something awesome on me? The awesomeness scale? 10/10 means kill everyone i can't sneak past who are not already part of my group. 1/10 might as well try my luck. Worst that can happen is that i respawn at the beach. 5/10 and i am considering. Lee enfield and winchester is 4/10 awesome, hunting knife and box of matches is instantly 6/10. Any automatic rifle = 6/10 and up. So thats my five steps to being a cautious survivor. This made me try to kill a whole lot of people with only one success which was mutual the others got away running or insta logging. I think some of them has hotkeyed the abort disconnect thingie :dodgy:
