DevilDog (DayZ) 455 Posted January 8, 2014 Curious but did you ever had a failed attempt?Like you went to heal a guy and he laughed and said "jokes on you" and a bunch of guys slaughtered you?I know I have had a few encounters like this. But honestly it was easy to tell what was going on. Also that was on the mod, so I used to hide my stuff in a tent and so they would not get anything anyway.

Goose77 13 Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) Curious but did you ever had a failed attempt?Like you went to heal a guy and he laughed and said "jokes on you" and a bunch of guys slaughtered you?We understand that the way we play puts us at risk, and gear isn't our priority. I like to look at it like we are a neutral party. We don't bandit hunt and we don't discriminate based on play style. A smart bandit will understand he is more likely to get into trouble than most, so having our service available is more valuable than a one time "thrill." Not to mention our bodyguards are damn fine shots, and I don't always tell the patient if there is one around, so it's basically a toss up if they want to reenact Tombstone.

Th3mandalorian (DayZ) 7 Posted January 9, 2014 Ha.Well i played as a medic for the last 40 hours. My last character was up 30 hours or even more. I was helping players all around north and south, giving supplies, ammo and meds until i met with my 2 buddies in elektro.One of my buddies was shot instantly after logging. Me and the second alive friend we narrowed the shooter to the tower in the firestation. We talked to him to lay down the weapon and come out. No harm will come to him if we can get back the stuff of our dead friend.We waited for his answer having our backs to the wall still scouting the area and then "You are dead".Either ghosting/cheating. No way someone could sneak upon us because we had both entrances covered. So the moral of the story - from now on im KOS. Im tired of having my character 30+ hours medic gunned down for no reason.

I know the feel... you can't trust anybody :( except these medics here and guys you talk to on steam/teamspeakhoppers, loggers, scum ("please type I can't hear you" - takes out pistol and shoots you), snipers .... the cool bandits are SO fewtoday I tried talking to a newly spawn ... he took really long to answer and suddenly I saw another one in the corner of my eye through the window. My gut wrenched a little and I knew something was wrong here. I immediatly shot the guy in front of me, turned around only to see the other guy trying to punch me ... nope! Close one ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knar33 158 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) So the moral of the story - from now on im KOS. Im tired of having my character 30+ hours medic gunned down for no reason. Playing as a medic to random people you meet along the road is extremely dangerous, much less so if they come into voice chat first and you meet on your terms. It is also a very bad idea to go into Elektro right now, because with the new spawn locations Elektro is a bloodbath. Don't give up the good fight, playing as a medic will always be more rewarding than being a bandit :) Edited January 10, 2014 by Knar 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cattasraafe 12 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Yeah I plan on starting a video series of some kind where I go around meeting people at random to see if i get gunned down or am giving the opportunity to aid others with their medic needs.

DrNub 1 Posted January 11, 2014 Was skeptic at first of how all this was laid out but Rondango from TMW helped my buddies and I last night with our blood and sickness problems. We got into a small Mexican standoff at Gvodzno because one of our pal was held hostage. Unfortunately all his gears were lost due to a server reset and was sick from forced alcohol. I have to give credit to Rondango for having to run from elektro and hope he wasn't annoyed with our chatter too much. Although he did seem to enjoy the company while running. He requested us to be patient and gave us some intro about TMW but heck at this situation we needed help bad anyways but the chatter helped pass the time seeminglessly.Once he got here he treated 3 of us with blood bags and helped Josh with his sickness and even gave him an extra vest with canned goods which was pretty nice of you to do cause he was pretty devastated after the gear lost.After the treatments, he told us about these videos about health and nutrition stuff that his fellow clan mate, Merino, had made. Seemed interesting and learned stuff we didn't know about before.On behalf of us, thank you Rondango and TMW.The fact you guys as a whole helping out players is astonishing, from video guides to verbally helping out random players is something unique in a open world game like this.I recommend TMW especially for new players as they are well "Trusted" Medics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jrychlik 0 Posted January 11, 2014 We really need arm badges in this game.If I see someone running around with a Red Cross on their arm id think twice about shooting them. It could really be bad for me as they could be a sneaky bandit but it could really save some medics.Also it would just look cool IMO.Maybe some skull or camo arm bands too.

I finished shooting at him, btw I want the shotgun back :D) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goose77 13 Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) I'd love to see some hero only stuff, but you're right, people do game the system a bit. Unfortunate, but ultimately unavoidable risk. I think that a lot of "KOSrs" also just shoot out of fear, not just plain old sociopathy. Edited January 12, 2014 by Goose77 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
