CombineNr42 2 Posted July 26, 2012 Hello.I dont know if i am in the right topic here.I only want to know if this is a good tactic to play.It was like this i was in Elektro when i heard gunfire i ran to the Super Market and entered it trough the back door and i saw many dead players they all got a weapon so i got in prone and searched for the Murder and there was a Dude with a sweet Shotgun and i tought he is a Bandit i mean all dead guys so i killed him and got 1 Murder so he cant be the Bandit?And then a new spawned player entered the Super Market he had no weapons i think he started to loot the dead guys so i killed him(HEADSHOT) because i tought he would get a weapon and try to get me so i killed him the 2nd Murder.Sorry for the bad EnglishIm GermanWhat do you think would you kill these 2 guysYes because.....No because......

AluCaRdBe 32 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) you only get bandit status after a few murders, so he could have still been the killer.I think it takes 3...more afaik, onc ekilled 4 guys + 1 bandit in 30 mins and still wasn't a 'bandit' Edited July 26, 2012 by AluCaRdBe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsyn 215 Posted July 26, 2012 At this point in DayZ if you're running solo, I would kill anyone that poses the slightest bit of threat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrBrown (DayZ) 26 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Can somebody give me some insight into the current survivor / bandit game mechanics? I read bandit skins and the Humanity indicator have been removed from the game. But do these mechanics still exist, although they're not shown directly any more? I once read if you aim at a bandit you'd start breathing heavily. Is that (still) true? How are murders counted exactly? Or is every kill a murder?I read up as much as I could on the topic, but I still don't get a clear picture, so I thought I'd ask here.

Hansel (DayZ) 3 Posted July 26, 2012 I think it's kinda like a straight guy being in prison, you want to be what you are but eventually you're a victim of your environment... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skatman 4 Posted July 26, 2012 Dont take any chances, I try to avoid other players, everyone I have come across always trys to kill me, even shouting out " Friendly " they still start to fire, so do what you have to do to survive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mirazoka 15 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) I think you're misunderstanding the term 'bandit'. A bandit shouldn't be considered someone that murders someone, a bandit's someone who kills for their loot.You just killed out of self-defense, apparently. I guess it's a way of surviving.
