  1. 1. Why do you play?

    • PvP
      8
    • "Surviving"

  2. 2. If you are a bandit, what is your playstyle?

    • "Deathmatching," because this was cheaper than MW/BF3
      2
    • Very tactical (I don't want to lose my nice gear!)

    • I prefer surviving to being a bandit

I play to ruin the lives of people who kill people for fun. There needs to be less of these idiots around, and actually some people that could, lets say, actually make a backstory and be friendly and help people. Roleplaying always makes stuff like this more interesting, but all people care about it murdering folks. Tis a shame, really.

Also, a bandit's purpose is to take people's stuff, aka robbing them, like Jex said.

People who go around killing for the fun of it are generally termed insane.

I play to survive though on main hive now that I'm all geared up I'm going to turn to a mixture of helping/killing. My main targets are bandits and snipers however I think this wont go well as I was countersniping for the first time at stary (pretty sure the guy had soldier clothing) I fired missed, then adjusted fired again and hit him in the head but he combat logged - pussy bitches.

One thing I'm concerned with is judgement RE: clothing - I wear a Ghillie suit and carry an L85, but I'm not out PK'ing - it's all about knowing where everybody ELSE is, and not being seen. Be careful not to countersnipe paranoid survivors or other countersnipers.

Um...have people every actually WATCHED a zombie film? It's like The Walking Dead meets Hunger Games the game. Everyone who isn't in your group (and even a few people who is) are, if not total psychopathic A-holes, at least desperate enough to kill you for your beans and Makarov. Everyone knows Cherno and Elektro are sniper infested, PvP madhouses. Unless you are a new spawn just looking to grab what you can while you have nothing to lose, there's no need to be there. I mean unless you like the sound your own head exploding from a sniper's bullet.

Still, there might be a bit too much military hardware just lying around. I feel like I've gone from desperately running into a zombie infested city full of snipers and psychopaths to grab a can of beans before I starve to death, the point where I've basically passively collected a ghillie suit, AS50, M-249 SAW, silenced M9, GPS, NV, and god knows what else like I'm about to insert into Afghanistan. And I haven't even killed anyone. I feel I need all that shit just to defend myself against other players!
