A tip for new players being held up

[nighhawk 41]

Just a tip to new players. When somebody trys to hold you up, don't do something stupid if you want to live. Dont charge the guy with an axe, a crowbar, or your fists. There are circumstances where this when this is a good idea and when it is a bad idea. It is a bad idea if the guy already sees you and has his gun pointed at you. It is also a bad idea if there is more than one person holding you up. It is a good idea if the person is very close too you. If you already have your axe out, use it, but if you don't, the quickest way to get them down is with your fists. You should also knock the guy out if he has a mosin and is distracted. If he has an m4 you will probably end up dead either way.

The point of this thread is to inform people that you shouldn't just charge a guy as soon as you see him. You should think it through and do it in the quickest easiest way. I'm tired of having people try to pull out an axe or something stupid like that when being held up, and just charging me when I was going to let them go anyway.

Also don't be that guy who says "what's the point he's going to kill me anyway" because there's still a chance there for you to be set free!

DONT TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE.....

If it doesn't concern you, move along. Don't listen. Don't read. Don't care.

 

Good tips for new players OP.

DONT TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE.....

EVERYONE SHOULD LIVE DIFFERENTLY :D

If I don't have a gun, if you hold me up and I feel like you are a dick, I will run or try to kill you.  It is easy to get a sweat shirt and a can of food.

 

Who holds up new spawn anyway?  More likely they want a plaything.  Homey don't play that.

Yeah 10% chance you'll get set free.

 

90% chance they do douchy stuff to you until you're dead, or they just shoot you anyways.

 

KOS is the only way to play this game.

 

I'll kindly die with my boots on thanks.  Or you die with my axe in the back of your skull.
