Worst Mistake I've made...

[MyPassword is Chickens20 11]

So, I just died on DayZ about 5 minutes after spawning in and heres how...

 

I was near to an air strip, so I decided to go down there and see what was about to loot, As I arrived, Scouting the sides of the fence I come across what seemed to be a new birth just strolling about in the middle of the path, how he survived getting there I have no idea, I decided to approach him to see if he wanted anything, Turnt the mic on, Told him im friendly and asked him if there was anything he needed for his journey, He then replied "Food please" so I give him a few cans of baked beans and a canteen full of water to keep him going for a while, We had a little few minute chat until we both departed, A few seconds later, I called him back and offered him a Pistol as I knew he'd never survive without a weapon, of some sort, He thanked me, Picked up my weapon as I was about to say bye for the last time, I fell to the ground and died.

 

He had shot me with the very gun I had given him. 

 

Probably the worst mistake I've made so far on DayZ, I wish I'd have thought over the consequences before acting on kindness. I guess its a lesson well learn't for me. 

 

New day tomorrow, new life.

Goodnight guys! 

:)

Trust. No. One.

[Rockapotomus 25]

Thats what you get for giving someone a gun 

[meat pie 632]

That guy was a dipshit,you gave him the gun he was a worth less and could not do anything him self.

 

A worthless peace of trash who was killed by some skilled player minutes later.

 

you seem like  nice guy op,shame bad things happen to good people

You didn't happen to catch a name did you? I pride myself on finding players like him and "rehabilitating" them...

[worst2first 71]

Next time, remove the magazine and give him the empty pistol. Then place the magazine and ammo farther away and leave the area. It sucks that he was a scumbag though.

[Awruk 216]

Don't listen to forum preachers. Just shoot everyone and you will be fine.

Yup...

Yeah, I know that now. At the time, I thought he'd appreciate me being nice and helping him out.

Thank you! Im not really too bothered, Just sucks that I spend the whole day or 2 looting up for that to happen, but you can only learn by your mistakes.

No, I didn't however if I see him again, I'll be sure to return the favor. I'll know his voice if I hear it.

yeah this is a good idea, In future I just dont think Ill be giving randoms weapons, Just food/drink. Not going to risk my own life again at someone elses expense.

No, Im not a d-hole.

:( that sucks man.  The internet is an interesting place.  Dayz is a fascinating game because it gives a glimpse into what some people really would do if the world was really like DayZ.  You get some that are there for pure self preservation at the cost of their dignity and morality, while others still have those values. 

 

keep your head up but with caution :)

[Really Old Man 53]

Next time give him a crowbar or some weak melee weapon. I never give random people guns.

So he travelled across the map to an airfield and you really think he needs a gun to survive ? :>

[MarcOwaR 29]

There's no penatly for killing anyone, it's a game lol they'll respawn. Kill all in sight it's the easiest way for just now... Once they patch it where the game is harder ie. can't eat the damaged food, ammo is rare etc etc... then I might start to hold up Mofos,  take thier gear and aim for the head and test thier love for Day z :)

Took me a bitty time to understand that typed diarrhea lol. Yes, Yes I do :)

No there isn't and that's the best way to test if you're a good guy or an asshole deep inside.

[thelonewarrior 886]

Hey OP

Hang in there, don't give guns to people unless you tell them to wait until your gone before picking it up

Or like someone said, just leave the magazine nearby

The amount of times I've given Someone an unloaded weapon and told them it was loaded and they aim at me and get CLICK CLICK is quite amusing really

If your ever looking for a group that does some justice look us up below :)

why did you give a pistol to an ape?

This is a sad, but unfortunately typical tale.  Here's an animation of your experience to make you feel better.

Is there a way to get those player's names?  I would love to make a nice long list of them and take them out one by one.  Over and over again.

To Hell with everyone. I was a fresh spawn but had some gear and some extra gear. Came across another new spawn with less. He says friendly, I say same. Ask if he needs anything, are you new, or have you played before? He answers nah, I know what I'm doing I'll be fine. He asks if I need anything and I respond nope, I'm good. Then he punched me unconscious. Douche.

This game has turned me in to a murderous douche too. I call it initiation. I went through it and so will every player I come across. For now anyway. Sometimes I'm still nice and I hate it. Hardly ever works out.

Next time, hide the pistol somewhere and then go back to him and tell him where it is located. 

Gives you some time to get out before he goes evil.

What if you finally learn how to be nice to new spawns? "hello, I am friendly but please keep your d. Sit down if you need an assistance. Do not approach, keep your distance!!! What the hell are you doing you freak?! SWOOOSH >his head falls to the ground<"

haha, i love this and it did make me feel better! :D

 

Got back on early this morning and looted up, Found plenty of food/drink, a mosin and a lot of ammo. I wont be making the same mistake again. 

[conan the librarian 99]

I find that it is best not to stop for anyone at the moment whatever position you are in.

 

However, if it is a Brit, Irish or Eastern European accent asking me to stop, or asking for food I find them far more friendly in general and am likely to stop, whereas if it is a Dutch/German/French accent, I KoS if I have a gun, or just carry on running if I don't. These nationalities are the least trustworthy on the game - never help them, they will only fuck you over if they get a chance.

You're not alone in being betrayed by someone you tried to be nice to. I too made the mistake of looting an airfield - found tons of cool stuff (but no guns) and had like three first aid kits in pristine condition in my huge backpack. Discovered a small camp at the top of the airfield, with three tents and a campfire (I didn't realize those items were available in the Standalone version yet). Feeling generous I decided to drop two of my first aid kits next to the campfire, along with all the mags and ammo I had looted (since I had no weapon to use them with). Heard some people talking over mic, wandered over to let them know of the gifts I had left - and promptly died in a hail of M4 bullets. I then had to suffer the indignity of hearing them loot all the food, water and cool stuff I had spent hours finding.

 

Turns out walking up to someone who is armed whilst you are wearing a gas mask and have a fire-axe isn't such a good idea after all...
