Crazy stupid idea I have.

[Avengerki 20]

So how about instead of killing on sight, I hold up a person. I get him to lay on the ground and handcuff him. Instead of looting him I then give him everything I have, except maybe a canteen and a can of tuna.

 

I then tell the player how to break free from the handcuffs and run away cackling maniacly as I go to find more stuff to give the next person.

try it!

let me know where and when and only do it to a guy who's wearing a blue lumberjack shirt and a red bandana. That's not me (cross my heart), I just hear those guys are co-operative.

I was thinking about doing this to a new spawn once, just to see if he would shoot me.

I should've I fell off the container ship half an hour later (got some good screenshots though)

If you do it, please post it on here and reddit.

Maybe you can start a trend.

It's not that easy. Because people are so scared of bandits. :D I've tried to give unloaded guns (I put ammo separately before running away), canteens, food to freshspawn, but ~75% of them ran away and ~15% tried to knock out me. :huh:

I never said it would be easy. Probably be easier to sneak up and handcuff them and then do it. But I think I will definitely try it the next time I am on and see someone at least gunless. I have kinda gotten to the point already I don't care if I die since I keep actually trying to find bugs and issues and reporting them. After dying so many times from just trying different things until there is more to do this should be fun.

 

Of course this means I need to spend more time near a coast.

 

The other day I did have fun playing ring around the town with the entire towns zed population following me after I had spawned until I could ditch them. I then went back on the otherside of town to find food and drink it was great.

That awkward moment when they combat log and dont get the loot.

Well I did it yesterday sort of. I had died from a fall and then respawned near Balota. I ran through collecting stuff, melee weapon, M4 with 30 rounds, backpack, cargo pants and some other stuff. I see a person and run up saying hello.

 

I get the "I need help I'm thirsty and hungry" from him. I say "Here take my stuff" as I proceed to strip and leave everything I had on the ground and as I am running away in my underwear and sun glasses I hear "Thank you"

So I respawned near Electro this morning, ran through doing some quick looting and eventually had a mosin, and a fire axe. Ran into a newer player and offered him my fire axe and anything else I had other than the mosin as I was wanting to take out a hunting group I kept hearing gun fire from. He did not want anything and was happy with his splitting axe.

 

About 10 minutes later from a high vantage point I finally spotted the hunting group using a fire station, I kept seeing people run into the fire station and then heard a barrage of fire and no one leaving. So I kept watching the fire station and there is the guy I offered my stuff too heading into the fire station, gun fire and he was dead, at least he opened a door so I could see in. Took out 2 guys from a distance, as I kept watching saw a couple more players run in followed by gun fire. I was getting tired so headed over there came around a corner shot 1 and then a guy with an M4 hiding in the corner turned and started firing at me, I let off a round and just before I died saw him go down. It was a good day. Hopefully a new spawn was able to get what he needed off of the 10 bodies I saw in there, plus mine.
