Way to tell if someone is a bandit

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I was wondering if there is still a way to tell if someone is a bandit or not? because they removed the bandit skin.

if there isn't, they should atleast add the bandit skin again or add another way of telling survivors and bandits apart.

Throw all your weapons on the ground while typing "FRIENDLY" repeatedly in caps (Caps are important).

If they shoot you they are bandits.

I use voice comms, tried to reason with some poeple trough it, asking if they are friendly, usually the ones that don't respond at all even if you say their location are hostile, tried this with loads of people.

Altough most of the people i found that also use voice comms tend to be friendly, i found at least 5 friendlys like this and helped each other out quite well.

Still, that just my method it still is a big gamble, but there no perfect method for finding friendlys.

yeah i try direct comm when i see them before they see me. If they dont respond i consider them hostile and ok to fire on.

Also anyone wearing ghille suites with heavy weps in electro or cherno i consider hostile.
