Killing players

Recommended Posts

So i killed two people today and it felt wrong. one was creeping round my base so i hide as it was dark as i don't see anything when its dark 😂 i was hoping they were just passing though, left it 5 minutes and it seemed clear so i started sweeping the base to make sure... I found him at the front gate.... He didn't see me and I was sat behind him for 20 seconds before a killed him. Looking through his stuff i don't think he was out to kill me. 

The 2nd was at a small mitlary base and i killed what turns out to be a freshie.

This game makes you do things you don't want to .... Man 😂

Need to be vocal i think !

It's sad that it's shoot first, ask questions later. 

I take turns on ps4/xbox and on ps4 the KOS is not as bad... Yet, but i never let anyone close. Had one guy following a few of us today. I turned around and fired off a few rounds around him. He turned around and ran. 

Have only killed one so far on ps4. 

I don’t like it either.

Sometimes it’s necessary to shoot first. I often stick my neck out and talk to people, but rarely do so at military bases.. Just not worth the risk imo. 

There are plenty of friendlies out there, though. The rarity of them makes the encounters all the more special!

The rampant KoSing has made ME a little sour.  I find myself doing it more myself.  It's crappy, but through my experience in the game, nice guys die (that would be ME....usually).   Go with your gut.  If something seems "off", it probably is.  Sometimes, though, you gotta have faith.  One thing IS for sure.....I give a player about 5 seconds to talk.  If not... I shoot.

Wow 5 seconds 😂 harsh. I have use emotes to communicate with people and they respone but this only used if they look fresh spawn ish. Anyone else I'm hiding and seeing if they pass or coming for trouble.

5 seconds, it's to long to be honest... I ran into a dude in an outpost with like 2 gun tents. I saw him and he never saw me. I could have killed him 20 times over but I don't like to KOS. Once he finally saw me he started the I'm friendly dance... so I did it too... turns out he was only doing it to give himself time to get his gun out to shoot me in the head. I literally caught the dude bear handed... and he kills me... like the other dude said... I'm also getting a little sour and sometimes if something feels off I'll KOS now too... never used to tho...

It’s nice we have a place to get these terrible things from the apocalypse off our chest.

I ran into another player at some else's base, I had heard then saw him and he only noticed me when I said "hello" from behind cover, so he said hello and asked if I was friendly, to which I replied I am depending on if he shoulders his rifle, so he did and I came out of my cover, we spoke a bit and I asked if this was his base, he replied no and asked me the same and I said no, so I asked him if there is anything he requires and he said that he is looking for nails, so I had picked up two boxes which I then gave to him and also gave him my sks "extra rifle" with a few rounds as he was only carrying a scorpion, then he asked if I would mind if he takes a look around this base for extra nails, I said it all good and watched him run around looking, but also watching the surroundings, he said that's it was great to run into a player that didn't kos and spoke to him, then left the area, that was great 😁

You have to Keep on trying and you will therfore Keep on dying, but it is the Right way I think, because good skilled Players with plenty of gear should not have the Need to kill poor equiped Players if not deem necessary.

However, all of that is Dayz and all of it counts into this to make the game so great as it is.

The last thing I want is the implementation of any Regulation related to possible PVE only fans or defensive modes and simmilar.

That would ruin the experience but to much complains About getitng killed might lead into such a direction?

 

Finally its a Sandbox and that means Players will play the style they like and some might believe he Plays a psychotivc mass Killer and so it be, meanwhile another one might want to be a rescue man delivering Food to the starving new spawns. 

As said that is what makes Dayz so great and seperates it clearly from a lot of PVP shoter games out there,

Both is possible and that is what I love in this game.

Or said different expect the unexpected and your fine.

I emptied my scorpion into some pour souls chest as he was sheltering me from the rain and showing me how to make a fire, but I had just spawned in, had places to be and really needed his mountain backpack(which I ruined) and water. 

It wasn’t worth it and made me feel like sh*t for hours. Never going to screw over a nice guy again... save it for the duper’s, they can have it!
