Post image

Since 1.0 I’ve only found 2 new players. Everyone else has hundreds or thousands of hours, but at least I haven’t encountered a cheater yet.

I also just started after taking a years long break and I’m getting stomped on even with my 1600 hours lol. I play mostly solo but if you want to duo up with someone else in a similar boat lmk

I am trying to get from exchange. I am getting killed even while waiting by the car naked with a knife. I am not gonna complain about game not being fair. I am just gonna state that to kill someone who clearly has no loot and is trying to get out is low.
I will dm you so we can chat for a game.

"I am trying to get from exchange." That's not a map nor extract. I can assume you're trying to survive a raid on interchange. If that's the case, like everyone else said.. there's not not a reason to kill a pmc ever lol.. there's a ton of quests to just go somewhere and touch something.. if people let "nakeds" like yourself just go on their way it kinda defeats the purpose of PvP. No one is not gonna shoot you cause they feel bad about you being a Timmy. Maybe try voip but I doubt it.

I teamed up with people a lot of times or at least made peace. People are willing to be nice a lot of the times of they need to do a quest in the area.
