Should i feel bad?

Ok, Time for a little story and a penny for your thoughts.

 

So, after a few hours of being on a full server near electro with friends (in other words playing death match with everyone else) we all eventually died and lost our gear. most of us left at that point, so I decided to go to electro sniper hill. I had died there earlier to a camping sniper, who I had almost killed by looting an m4 from 2 corpses at the sniper point but making the fatal mistake of not loading the damn magazine (it was fun having a clear shot at said sniper and trying to unload and instead just hearing click) this resulted in him trying to axe me for 2 Mins and failing while I tried to get the magazine still in the body. (cue benny hill theme on that) eventually he simply shot me with the damn Mosin and I elected to try again for revenge.

 

This time I decide to be more cautious, I make my way all the way behind the electro hill and then crawl carefully towards the sniper zone to look for this sniper fiend. Before reaching the sniper point however I spot a chap in full military gear hiding behind a tree. I immediately hide behind a tree and observe him, thinking he is stalking the same Sniper or waiting for a victim. After 10 seconds I realise that he has no weapon out nor is moving at all, all he is doing is moving his head from left to right and he isn't even prone. It then strikes me that he may be afk or logging out. I approach careful and attempt to communicate. No response. So I then figure what the hell and proceed to punch him 40 times in the head to finally knock him out (I was a Bambi) and then take all his gear. Full ttsko military gear, Camo mosin with all the attachments and enough food to make me healthy. In other words full pristine gear. I ran inland laughing at my luck (and devouring the jealousy of my teammates who were not so lucky :D)

 

But then I felt guilty. He cant of been logging off (as it took 30 seconds just to punch him unconscious let alone kill him) so what on earth was he doing. I concluded that he was either afk or a dupe. but regardless I feel guilty killing a guy who clearly spent a lot of time looting good gear. What do you guys think?

if he was afk it was his mistake.

Perhaps he lagged out or something, who knows.

I probably wouldn't have killed him

If you follow the threads on here then it's clear he had just had a call from the hospital to say a family member had taken ill, hence why he was AFK.

 

 

Seriously I wouldn't feel bad about this at all. If I am a bambi and I find some way of a big gear up in one go I'd take it without thinking twice.

Never feel bad. The dude should never have been afk, as I have found that out many times in the same fashion. Especially on sniper hill elektro.... I mean come on.  I give you credit for even attempting to communicate but dont feel guilty. You were looking for gear to help you survive, sometimes you have to kill to get it.

by your discription i would say he was a duplicate... i dont know nor want to know how to do it but some how i managed it once.. i tried talking watched thinking afk then killed it and found it had everything on him i did some how i had dupped...

Don't feel bad, if he was silly enough to go afk fully geared on sniper hill or anywhere that is traveled then that's on him. Trust me he will feel bad for about a minute when he respawns then he will get more loot and go back to doing whatever it was he was doing before getting beat to death

Don't feel bad because it's a game. if you feel guilty from playing a game then you have no hope for surviving the harsh realities of the real world LOL.
