I bought this game a while back, but haven't really decided to play till now. Although I do tend to have fun just being in a constant state of paranoia -- I sometimes wonder if this is an actual zombie survival game, or just another FPS death match type game. I played the Arma campaign a bit; So I got some of the mechanics down. I'm just having bad luck with other players -- I try to communicate effectively and be friendly, but I still end up dying. At least one guy manage to tell me to head south or he would shoot on sight (and I did), but that's the most hospitality I ever obtain in this game. I even tried the 'woodsman' strategy / avoid all major cities at all cost type strategy and managed to find two deer stands. Looted the first one and got an AKS Cobra (sweet gun!) or something; Then I approached the second one and bam! My legs are crippled and I don't even try to communicate with the fellow who shot me -- In the upmost dissapointment I said 'just kill me' and the worst part is that he just left me there. What am I doing wrong? (Also. First post. Hi DayZ forums.)
