You know what I hate?

Been alive for 25 days, Dont have anything on me thats really worth taking but im currently raiding NW Airfield.

Being the good guy that I am (And sadly loner..) I walk around, and when I see someone instantly tell them im friendly, even though I have a very easy shot on them mostly.

So I play DayZ after having quit for about a month (Character dying in a horrible tree-made accident causing him to flinch and die of a stroke) I have an AK47 and an Alice backpack.

So I'm at the airport trying to find some gear, and find a guy named Kraz.

Krav has a pretty nice looking gun, Coyote backpack and a UAV, and I have a very easy shot on him.

The zombies dont seem to mind him, and I send out a message "I'm friendly, settle down cowboy im low on blood and I have no interest in fighting you or any of your stuff I just thought we might be able to join forces".

After him not saying anything and just sitting there (Again while 9 zombies are huddled around him, not really doing anything, and not minding him AT ALL) he decides to tell me to go lay on the ground in a voice that tells me he hasnt hit puberty yet while im bandaging myself after apperantly thinking I saved him from the zombies.

Krav decides to open fire at me with his silenced machine gun (Probably M4A1) while im almost done bandaging myself.

Krav gets kicked for restriction I believe #14.

I can only say I find it sad people like that kill survivors, theres no glory, no items in it for them but they do sure as hell set back someone about 3 hours of work, on a scale of a very busy lifestyle.

It's just sad really, seeing many people compare this game to the military and having been in it myself, I'd like to add that theres a difference between a game and the military, mostly the game being nothing but amusement; and ARMA 2 itself would make a better Military simulator.

I know people will probably bash me for this, but still all I can say is I find it disgraceful you shoot a guy thats no threat to you whatsoever when they are bandaging, after they tried to help you clear zombies.

I've only ever met one friendly player, Although they were unarmed, But I bet if they were armed they would of shot me like everyone else.

Amen to that.

I've seen a few people myself on a US server that I used to play on until some Zombies got me after my ammo was out at the NW Airfield.

Never opened fire at anyone, it's not my deal.

To me, DayZ is not just about killing other players, it's about survival, and I love it. I wouldn't open fire at anyone unless they fire at me first and if I can't get away from the situation. I'm a loner in the game and I've just found NVG's so it's perfect for me on the server I play on to play early in the morning when it's pitch black on that server and the server doesn't have many players on it which is perfect for me. I can scavenge NW Airfield safely besides the zombies that are easy handled.

So if you wanna play with someone on a server with not many people on it, send me a message and we could try to make a camp and do what is fun. I'm up north most of the time, haven't seen any player up there on my server so far so got alot of heli crash sites to scavage, found 5 of them this morning while gathering some food.

Even though you can't really trust someone in the game. I still gonna say it, I'm friendly, and old enough to know that detroying someones hardworked character in a second is not fun. So through me a message if you are up for some scavenge playing. I'm Swedish by the way.

Jokes on you, I actually like that song

This is the point where people like me say, yep, I agree with you, and PvPers starting saying it's impossible to play the game without killing. Ah well, that's life.

What i've learnt and is correct 100% of the time is if you say "your're friendly" to someone and they take a while to respond, delay of a few seconds, then they are not friendly, which is what happened in your case, and i will shoot them.
