I'm killing Bambis

Recommended Posts

Honestly, the term "Bambi" is misused I feel. Bambi denotes innocence. Bambi means doe eyed bushy tail. Bambi was a fawn who later became a buck, but the word refers to the toddler incarnation.

"Bambis" in DayZ aren't that. I assure you, 85% of all fresh spawn are disgruntled people who just died and they want to get geared ASAP. Who wants to run to NE/NWAF to get shit when I can just suicide run and "possibly" punch out a dude and take ALL his gear? Thats 5 minutes and I'm back into action vs 30 minutes or more.

While killing new players isn't sporting, crucifying bambi killers is unnecessary as you learn that a bambi with nothing to lose is WAY more scary than a geared guy.

Actively hunting bambis is a different story and is more akin to ganking lowbies in an mmo. Except with perma death. Those guys just enjoy an easy win.

Also, almost all traps/ambushes/betrayals start with some guy being like "hey friendly, I just spawned". At least in my experience (Yes I hang out in elektro/berezino)

thats because the big boys are up north, where spineless bambi killers have zero chance of survival

Too bad the Bambi's are just bait for the zealous high horse heroes to fall into.
