Would you shoot the unarmed person?

Recommended Posts

During your adventure you find a person without a gun on them. Main fire arm or sidearm cannot be seen in hand. You clearly have the advantage over them. Be it up close or observing them from a scope afar.

Would you shoot this unarmed person? Why?

To be fair, if I was doing something rather danergous like looting the NW airfield I would have probably shot him first before even noticing he was unarmed :P

I'd shoot him in the legs, then fire some rounds in the air to attract zombies and run back to watch the show.

Too bad you would have the aggro.

No. If the player do not seem like a threat towards my survival, I will not shoot them. Sadly, this is not how the majority (well, at least not according to my experience) will act. I've only played this mod for 5-6 days but I got the impression that many players play this game as if it was a regular FPS, kill-everything-that-moves. CoD and/or BF3-players, if you will.

When I first started, I would not have killed another person.

But now that I have an AKM, a 1911, an ALICE pack filled with AKM/1911 mags, food and drink, a map, matches, binocs and enough supplies to last me a century...all in my first life (have yet to die)...I will shoot ANYONE on sight.

If I'm on the coast and still using a mak, I'll give them a clip or two.

Chances are they're a zombie beacon and will be passively helping me anyway

Depending on location and if perceived as a possible future threat. Otherwise I prefer not to alert people of my location, nor waste my ammo

I wouldn't shoot him. I don't kill players if they don't represent a clear threat to my life.

I might go talk to him and ask if he needs help getting a weapon.

Wouldn't shoot. Better to keep quiet and pass by without incident than tempt an uncertain outcome. Besides, I'm trying to avoid other players till I can locate a safe zone or friendly group of some kind.

Yeah, if I had that I'd guard it like a rabid dog. Currently I haven't been doing so hot so I've teemed up with other noobs a few times.

Was going well when I played the other day, teamed up with about 4 other guys and we went to loot a town. Went fine, got some good equipment. It was at night, were were all inside this building in different rooms. Out of NOWHERE this bandit runs through the hallway behind us with about 20 zombies in tow. I died a few minutes later covering my team's escape lol.

Wouldn't shoot, that's be silly, but I'd study him a bit if possible.

If he proves to be clueless and a liability, I'd leave him to his fate, good or bad.

If he proves his care in his movements and will to survive, I'd help out, carefully, trusting my gut more than anything else.

No, I would not, I hate yet to get shot in the back despite my good gear and being on the coast line.

People get bored to play alone, rather talk with new people and loot stuff around even if I risk dying. If I die, no big deal, its only the beguinning of a new adventure!

Letting people live is an unnecessary risk to your own safety. He might not be a threat now - but who knows what he will do when finds a gun? Its best to put him down before finding out whether he is hostile or not.

Let's say there's only a 10% chance he will eventually find a gun and kill you. Is that worth letting all other 9/10 scenarios where the survivor will let you walk? Nope - not in my book.

There's a 100% guarantee that he won't be a threat with a slug to his head and his character back by the beach.

And here's why...The Walking Dead *SPOILER*

On the other hand, he's a lot less likely to shoot you if he doesn't know you're there. Bullets are noisy, and ammo is precious. It seems easy to find, but when you need it, you really need it, and boy do you get through it fast.

I'd let him live, if I didn't know him. If I did, I'd either shoot him or help him out, depending on my past experience with them.

Wouldn't shoot. There is no good reason for a murder unless he becomes an imminent threat.

But I'm quite irritated that so many people would pull the trigger - mostly for no good reasons.

You do realize that mankind's pretty much fucked with people (sorry, players!) like you right?

Going like this, there will come a time, maybe after a month, a year, maybe 10 years, when you'll start reflecting on your own life, get all philosophical and shit, all alone in the woods, surviving...

Then you'll realize that nothing matters anymore because you'll die either of some stupid mistake one morning that will get infected, or simply of old age, and leave nothing behind.

Personal survival is only the first phase in these situations I think, then it's time to rebuild something, or surviving loses it's meaning and with nobody around to tell you you're still alive, you wouldn't know the difference :)

And here's why...The Walking Dead *SPOILER*

Bad example, anyone with half a brain would instantly kill these dudes in that situation. There's a difference between murdering random people, and killing assholes :)

Kill him... and here is why

if he has no weapons at all but he is still playing odds are he has something good on him otherwise he would of killed himself

if he doesnt have anything good on him, then i just helped him out by killing him
