Dagwood 680 Posted November 14, 2013 Approaching the tents across from the hospital with a tail of infected close behind I heard the tell-tale zip of a backpack opening. It was quickly followed by "hero in here. You friendly?" I leaned around the doorway quickly and down the sights of my M16A2 I spied a hero carrying an MKMOD. "I'm friendly. Lots of zeds out here.""Lots of em in here too. Let's go."We ran north to a small building, bandaged eachother after disposing of our assailants, and stopped. Long story short, he gave me an SVD he had in his pack with no ammo. He had a cough and so I offered to take him north to a small stash I have near stary. Once we arrived I bloodbagged him and fed him his antibiotics. At this point I made my move."Here's what happening: if you turn towards me, I'm shooting you in the face. Put your weapon on the ground now. Do it now!"He lowered his war machine and shortly after dropped it. "You helped me, so I am not going to kill you. I am merely trading weapons with you." I dropped my m16 and hefted his MK mod with a half full clip still loaded. "Head south and you are free to go."He began tuning off "Thank ya! Good luck to ya!"All I got as a reply was "I would have given it to you if you'd just asked!"I ran 100 meters east and logged for the night.I'm curious, would most of you consider this kind of drawn out robbery a waste of time? Would you just save yourself the effort and just shoot him from the get go? Or do you see the benefit of this kind of behavior? 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Actually Bobby 7 Posted November 14, 2013 Well if you are trying to not lose humanity it makes sense not to kill him. But if you just wanted the gun you should've just made him drop all his weapons at the start. Just my input :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korsbaek 1778 Posted November 14, 2013 Now he knows where your stash is. He's going to get you :D 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeeHarveyEnfield 311 Posted November 14, 2013 snipI'm curious, would most of you consider this kind of drawn out robbery a waste of time? Would you just save yourself the effort and just shoot him from the get go? Or do you see the benefit of this kind of behavior? I enjoy interaction as long as I get to kill them afterwards.interaction serves as foreplay, it sets the scene and prepares the victim for what is about to happen to him. If I had been you i'd have done things in a similar way however as he turned south I would have shouted something like 'HEY LOSER, HAVE SOME BULLETS BACK' then i'd have full auto'd him in the back with the mk48 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korsbaek 1778 Posted November 14, 2013 'HEY LOSER, HAVE SOME BULLETS BACK' then i'd have full auto'd him in the back with the mk48 But why? What's the point of it? If he didn't do anything to you, why would you shoot him? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeeHarveyEnfield 311 Posted November 14, 2013 But why? What's the point of it? If he didn't do anything to you, why would you shoot him? because every time I kill a player my brain gets a hit of endorphins.In other words it feels good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jordan* 277 Posted November 15, 2013 Capturing someone alive and stealing their goodies is much more rewarding than ,to me at least, than just seeing someone and just pew pewing away because yolo swag. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dagwood 680 Posted November 15, 2013 The most notable thing here to me is that I drew this encounter out for 30 or so minutes. If I had shot him and looted, I would have been all alone again and been wishing more people would head north. If I am playing for kills, I should play a game where there is more to shoot at and there is less time between action. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pandema 352 Posted November 15, 2013 OP is why I still have some hope in this game. I miss the days of hearing someone telling me to drop my guns instead of just spewing rounds at me until eventually they hit me. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
