dakilla187 28 Posted December 12, 2012 This happens on those rare occassions, ive been the corpse for buzzards numerous times.. In game im the guy with the big guns and I normally KOS unless communication is made or many other circumstances. I hate how I can be crouched in a house with a substantial weapon and some nut bag I saw earlier who is basically a newspawn with tunnel vision winds up in the same house in front of me. In this situation the opposing player armed with a pew pew pistol clearly sees that I have the extreme upper hand and that I already had the opportunity to kill him as he blindly entered the same room as I waited for him. This fell into my rare communications opportunity time, after two seconds I reach to my keyboard and he shoots me with his pew pew shooter. Ouch im dissapointed and fell into th U Mad category....I can understand if the opposing player is just plain malicious, but come on, I know not in all situations like this they are indeed malicious. If the guy has a shotgun barrel pointed at you point blank and hesitation occurs and you have the shorter end of the stick, realize that coms is being established......

Tabris07 159 Posted December 12, 2012 Sometimes I try to type so quickly that I butcher my messages with spelling mistakes, and while trying to go through and fix the mistakes, the other survivors think my hesitation to respond to their "friendly?" message means that I plan on killing them. This results in my death as I'm frantically trying to close the chat box so that I can move around again and evade their shots. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tabris07 159 Posted December 12, 2012 You guys need microphones.. much easier and much less typing involved. ;)I plan on getting a new headset soon. The problem currently is that I can't use a mic and hear in game noises at the same time as my speakers are out of commission (a DJ thought it would be a good idea to get the power cord for the speakers mixed with his crap and leave with it). So I need to either get the speakers working or get a mic that doubles as headphones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nightops 8 Posted December 12, 2012 What ever happened to the good ole' Q/E side-side movement? Generally that will let a player know that you don't have killing intentions. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeDaddy92 15 Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I know that feel. Heck, I fresh spawned at Elektro, ran into the grocery store and started getting shot in the legs by a nubcake in the corner with a makarov. Kept shouting friendly but he wasn't stopping :P Managed to find a winchester (with no intent on using it on him at the time) walked back in with my flashlight and was shot again, this time legs broken. I said "Fine, you want to play like that?" as his gun clicked from the empty mag, pulled my winchester out and shot him 3 times in the chest. He ran past me and got KO'd by a zed and eaten 2 seconds later. I just shouted, "How do you like it buddy? Huh?"I thought I was going to die in that first attempt, but he never tried aiming at the head.JoeDaddy92EDIT: I think it was 2 shots. Not 3. I recorded it but I think I might have gotten rid of it on accident :/ Edited December 12, 2012 by JoeDaddy92 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxblink 66 Posted December 12, 2012 Get a headset with a mic. All in one. Plus, I find with a headset, you can pinpoint sound/hear things better than with speakers in-game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
