Help settle an Argument

Recommended Posts

The Question

My friend and i are arguing at the moment whether sniping is PvP or not.

My Argument

  • Sniping is just PvP with you having a major advantage.
  • You are actually killing other people so it's PvP
  • Who said anything in life had to be fair?

His Argument

  • PvP is when the other Player/s actually see you
  • and i quote "it's rape"
  • you are never actually seen

So can you help us settle the argument???

Your friend is an idiot.

"PvP" means nothing in this game. It is literally a meaningless term because it's ALL PvP. There are no activities you can engage in while logged in that do not affect some other player who is hostile to you in some way or another.

If he thinks that sniping doesn't count because of some bizarre 'fairness' fetish, then you need to ditch him and find people to play with that aren't huffing paint cans.

Even if you're going way, way out of your way not to kill other humans an important aspect of Zombie Survival is identifying who will get you killed and getting them the hell away from you. Good, bad, or otherwise, humans are ALWAYS the main danger in a zombie apocalypse. Apparently some people don't understand that.
