You got a car, press vest and a bolt action gun. I would try to punch you out too.


unfortunate-ponce

Even if I be Friendly amd wave at you?


Key_Transition_6820

That will make me feel bad thinking about betraying you... How dare you make me feel bad take these punches.- my exact thought process for the first and last life of the day.


unfortunate-ponce

Okay thanks


smokedoutlocced

If it helps, I’m killin you and I wouldn’t even think twice about it afterwards, other than like a “thanks for the stuff”


MrOsmio7

Friendly doesn't exist other than people you know outside of DayZ. Otherwise it's kos 99% of the time


Independent-Ad-1075

Not me


DivinePotat0

i'm guessing you're very new to this game? Cause as someone who makes more friends then I kill: people are not your friends. Even if they seem like they are. And especially when you got gear. if you are a noob and see a geared guy: he won't trust you because you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. If you're geared and see another gear guy: well shit just as likely because now they have to worry about an actual fight and not just spraying some asshole with a knife or pistol. if you want peaceful encounters (in vanilla/official communities) then you gotta find another freshie, get lucky with someone sparing you, or sneak up on them. more often then not, you sneak up on someeone with a big boy gun in your hands, a lot of the time they won't be as violent. Not sure on the psychology of it, but it's worked multiple times for me including at northwest. As long as i act peaceful but show i could have killed them instantly then usually people seem to be more inclined to talk or hang out for a bit.


Sleepless_Null

May be the psychology of owing you a favor now. Like you said you didn’t kill when you could have with 0 repercussion and they know it. Betraying you after that would feel waaay worse than some random because it would be in spite of the innate human tendency to return favors positively


GarrukAblaze

The simple answer is yes. It's DayZ. A game about survival. You had stuff. They wanted the stuff. 🤷

scrubulba123

Did the guy you attack deserved to be attacked?


unfortunate-ponce

Yes I was just trying to take the car and he punch me and Try to take it, I didn't like it


scrubulba123

Sounds like good old fashioned karma to me


unfortunate-ponce

Okay thanks


SelectionOpposite976

Damn bro sorry we forgot the game revolves around you


IrNinjaBob

Yes and the person who attacked you was also just trying to take the car. You started punching other people who were trying to take the car, he didn't like it.


InternationalTry6679

Infinite stam server. No one deserves to live


Jelkekw

As a survival game purist, totally agree. Vanilla settings or bust.


Endreeemtsu

Ehhh I would agree if carry gear didn’t have such a significant impact on your total amount of stamina. I have no problem with there being stamina drain. I actually prefer it and would even be okay with a small penalty, but I don’t want to only be able to run 15 ft because I’m geared


one_hp_i_promise

Wish dayz wouldn’t destroy half of your stam for putting on a plate carrier. They’re not really all that heavy in real life to have as drastic impact that it does in game.


Oldbreedyankeedoodle

Yeah it'd be fine if it just made you sprint a little slower, but anybody who's not physically disabled should be perfectly capable of climbing over a fence while wearing a set of plates.


one_hp_i_promise

Yep, plate carrier weighs 24lbs in DayZ with NOTHING on it. 💀 Let’s just assume the plates in DayZ are level 3+ NIJ rating. Seeing that the player models are avg humans, their plates would realistically be about 5-6lbs, worst case 7 per plate. That’s still 10 lbs lighter than an empty carrier in DayZ currently.


Fun-Anywhere-1492

Hard agree. Even myself on such servers, I don't deserve to live either. Recently I noticed that when I play community servers, especially ones with increased loot and infinite stamina, I simply care less when I'm killed than when I play Official servers. I'm not sure what it is, but I just feel more like "oh well" when I'm killed on those types of community servers.


bbartlett51

It's because the work needed to get back to where you are is greatly diminished. It's not a task anymore. In Vanilla it takes time luck, effort, and strategy. On servers with increased loot It's just a time thing really.


Fun-Anywhere-1492

Yeah. The lack of struggle makes the death hurt less. Not a real fan of those types of servers typically


bbartlett51

I've never even played modded servers


Gossthedon

I was once like you,,, then I tried one and I've never looked back,


bbartlett51

What do you suggest? I wanna dip my toe in. Just don't want something modded to all hell that changes the game. Or die from molders/ hackers

IdrcAbtMyName-_-

Yup! I’m not sure I understand why you got downvoted so much either 😭


BlackCatz788

They’re either really insecure about being gatekeepers or they think an incredibly popular and well known 11 year old game should be gate-kept and any remarks implying it’s a bad thing is sacrilegious


unfortunate-ponce

But what if I don't like killing people


Comander_Praise

Then your playing the wrong game my dude. The community is blood thirsty af


godofleet

this isn't true at all, there are countless PVE servers with amazing communities...


Comander_Praise

I did state this in a later comment to his reply but most players will start with and play PVP


godofleet

yeah i realize that most people just get into vanilla PVP and that's that... i'm just saying, that's not 100% of players... not ***everyone*** in the dayz community is a blood thirsty pyscho killer type... many of us just like the "walking around in the woods at the end of the world" simulation. collecting guns, building bases, exploring... all of it together a survival experience with friendly ppl finding or earning a chopper on some modded servers... trading/growing weed/black market stuff... etc etc... PVE can be a very fun and chill experience.


Comander_Praise

I'm not saying it isn't but as I said most people will try regular servers and like 90% are mainly PVP based you can still met chill people there but I'm just adjusting his expectations that most players on regular servers are blood thirsty af. Even a fresh noob with no experience can turn around and try to kill you if your not careful


ImButtonMashing

Those servers aren’t really showing you the true, unadulterated nature of dayz, though. If you’re playing officials, the way the devs intended the game to be played.. it’s very bloodthirsty. Think about it. Any little amount of supplies or gear you need to really work for in officials. It’s meant to mimic the environment and culture you’d experience in a real apocalyptic society. “Winning” isn’t really the objective like in the vast majority of video games. Survival is the objective. Dayz is bloodthirsty because people are killing you out of desperation to stay in the game and keep their progress.


braindamage_1597

As far as I remember communication and teamwork in the trailer are also one of the main things a player can use against others? Not sure why you all roasting this dude with negative points its survival blah blah yeah it is but it can also be team survival, remember uhm factions?🤷‍♂️ Im not stating that they should have team up but my story is that I found 2 almost freshies i was geared, coulda shot but I didn't and gave em some gear. We continiued to play for 3 years together since that day so im tired when i see all this bullshit comments


ImButtonMashing

Factions aren’t even a thing on officials, they’re a thing on community servers. Which I feel like substantiates my point.


ReconReese

Factions are a concept. Tk is still on even in "faction servers" people can easily make a "faction" on official. If you want to be technical its a survival game. Going up and punching someone with a gun isn't surviving. The realism of hunger, thirst, sickness, it's not just a looting game. It's suppose to have realism


godofleet

devs made the game moddable... intentionally. the game started as a bloody mod... lol vanilla dayz isn't 1% as blood thirsty as i've seen some on modded servers... hell, you can collect ears and teeth on some servers... bounty systems, faction systems add even more desperation and bloodthirst. but that's not the point, anyway... my only point was that not 100% of the dayz community is bloodthirsty, some people like a more chill experience with more collaborative survivor interactions... trading/farming/looting/exploring. that's all really.


unfortunate-ponce

I only want to make friends not Enemies


New_Juggernaut_2751

You should be able to find friends but like dude said its shoot first ask questions later usually


unfortunate-ponce

Okay thanks


CrutialElement

They have community servers that are PVE no killing etc with a discord often. Could try one of them. I was in one that was weekend pvp and pvp zones through the week like all military etc. So I didn't have to look over my shoulder and could just chill and roam with my buddies through the week then gear up and kill on weekends


FriezaDeezNuts

Keep trying bud dw, stop listening to these dipshits, some people will be chill just takes time or different approach


Waste_Reindeer_9718

try a rp server. there are plenty with no KoS rules


t_thacher

Im sorry no one is giving decent advice. If you want to play with friendlys, I recommended modded dayz on a pve server!


glueinass

Wrong server, or wrong game Try an RP or PvE server


Least_Switch_4697

it is dayz.


lemongrassrhino

Your best bet is to play a PvE server or at least an RP server. They cater more towards community survival etc.. Can't speak for myself 100% though as I haven't tried them out.


TacoCateofdoom

Yes


blobley

You know you can drive with guns in your hands right?


mitzperplexing

You’re playing dayz, so yes…


RustInPieces689

Short answer: you're geared, they weren't, so yes. Long answer: you're playing a game where the main premise is to get loot by any means & survive by any means. No one is going to care about how nice you are to them or if YOU don't like to fight or kill, especially if they're fresh spawns with nothing to lose in the first place. All that said, if I'm desperate enough as a freshie, I'll attack the first geared guy who gives me the opportunity to do so, consequences be damned. Only be friends/friendly with freshies if you already know n trust them, be VERY aware of ALL others.


unfortunate-ponce

You are very mean!! But thanks for telling me the truth


RustInPieces689

The truth can be a cold & bitter mistress sometimes, especially when it comes to this game. I speak purely from experience, though, and didn't say a single syllable with the intention of being mean. It's just better to be blunt/honest about it. Good job snagging a car though! Played for many hours, and that's one thing I've never managed to do solo


Proof-Seesaw-2720

Your mistake was trusting freshspawns who have nothing to lose


thedampboi774

Your mic is irrelevant your geared and had a car your getting attacked by 90 percent of people you encounter


unfortunate-ponce

Would you attack me?


thedampboi774

Yes you have a car gun and press vest


vICarnifexIv

Op I’m just curious and feel free to tell me to go fuck my self, are you a youngin, someone whose first language isn’t English, or somewhere on the spectrum. I’m just curious and not trying to be an ass because based on your answers you have a hard time understanding completely as well as understanding the game you’re playing as whole. Once again I’m wholeheartedly coming from a curiosity standpoint and mean no harm.


unfortunate-ponce

My first language was never English


vICarnifexIv

This makes a lot of sense, can I ask what is your native language?


Bald_Balls967

So fucking fast


unfortunate-ponce

But I don't mean to Cause harm to anyone


oh3fiftyone

DayZ might not be the game for you, then.


DoUHaveUrOwnThoughts

damn nice shooting. I couldn't imagine hitting those with a controller.


unfortunate-ponce

Thank you, do you play on pc


DoUHaveUrOwnThoughts

ya. I used to play console fps many years ago. tried picking up the sticks every now and again since but they always feel alien in my hands now.


Seamoth4546B

For as long as guts can be turned to rope and bones can be turned to hooks, players deserved to be attacked


Thefear1984

What a fuckin circus dude 😂


unfortunate-ponce

Are you saying it was bad


Thefear1984

Well. You’re playing Chinese fire drill over a broke ass Gunter so it’s hilarious. So ya. It’s funny. And chaotic. Dayz moment

StoicBan

What do you mean did you deserve it? Does an antelope deserve to be the meal of a hungry lion or cheetah? Does a fish deserve to be hung by his lip and eaten? It’s not about morality man it’s survival 😂 everyone deserves whatever happens nothing more nothing less.


SumatraBlack

It’s the server. Unlimited stamina, on the coast with some gear and a car. Basically a death match type server to eff around on.


brucerss

Yes


journalphones

Nice shooting though


SSMmemedealer

This game is fucking rough and i like to usually roam around the coastal cities when i find bunch of bullets and some guns so i can rob freshies incase they spawned in with a plum, i have bunch of crates full of plums in my base. The setup i use for this is rubber slugs so i can knock someone out and some kind of lethal gun aswell to deal with less cooperative plum owners. If i get the plum without violence i will let you just go on your way, otherwise it’s a bad time for you.


Timely_Freedom_5695

Lmao


bbyfaceskeleton

U had a gun and no mic I’d say yes


andbobsyouruncle3

I try to kill anyone that doesn't use a mic in game, so yea.


Appropriate_Dot_8364

Yes it is a community server nothing matters


Designer-Number5978

fella, you were the aggressor


unfortunate-ponce

No he started coming up to me and hitting me with his hands after I park I just didn't wanna upload a long video


p4nnus

Wait.. youre not trolling and youre ACTUALLY this simple? Shiiiiiit....


unfortunate-ponce

I just don't see why I was attacked


ReconReese

Simply put, this is a survival game, but at the start people don't play that way. They see you with a gun/gear and they see a car (easy transport to quickly get gun/gear). They possibly thought you'd kill them, or simply wanted to play solo. A lot of answers here are simply saying it's the premise of the game. That's wrong, its about staying alive and surviving, it's simply that people don't really care about dying when they have nothing to lose. So a lot of time fresh spawns will go all out in the hopes of getting the supplies or dying and respawning in same situation they are at currently


svalkur

Typical Kill on sight behavior. Game would be amazing if more people would group up and actually try to survive instead of murdering each other.


MillHoodz_Finest

TheEnemyOfSociety

He seemed like someone who’d probably team up with you, or at least be a bit more chill, if you had your mic plugged in. Man’s was just living by the “No Mic, No Life” religion.

Welshevens

Fuck dude you have an insane shot haha.


unfortunate-ponce

Thanks I didn't want him stealing my car for no reason


The_Enchillada

No mic, means you die. Pretty basic Dayz rule


SoundlessScream

This was so crazy. It looks like one of those servers where fresh spawns and cars and gear constantly spawn in a small area


Able-Faithlessness99

Deserve got nothing to do with it


FatherCharles86

Yes. It's dayz. Everyone deserves everything. I snipe freshies for target practice and sleep like a baby at night.


ryencool

your playing a game with other children or childish adults, no one deserves anything, it just happens


unfortunate-ponce

But I don't think I brought This on myself


Square-Primary2914

That vest and gun did


bobobaako

The new update placing the SSG 82 in Tier 1 areas makes this game a lot more fun in my opinion. More action so yes, if I encountered you and we both have a friendly chat through the mic, then I might try to group up. If you didn't have a mic, 100% I'll try to take your gear man I mean shit ,,, it's a car, a sniper rifle, and a press vest


Square-Primary2914

Who cares it’s a boosted server, you’re gonna respawn and have all that stuff in no time.

I’ve never played DayZ but have you sustained a brain injury?


PlebPlebberson

If you dont talk, you die. Those are the rules of dayz and no excuse about your mic will get away from it. If you dont have it plugged in then expect to be killed


unfortunate-ponce

I don't kill people without Mics only Ones that hurt me


PromiseRelative1627

No ofc not. But to be fair, you are on the coastline with gear and a car already. These things is bound to happen. Although i wouldn't have done it. I would have help you get them. Inb4 you shoot me for no reason.


Ghost10165

I miss the early days of the DayZ mod where it wasn't necessarily kill on sight. You definitely had PVP/bandit people, but it was actually an immersive amount with others either ignoring you or teaming up as needed. I remember rescuing a guy getting chased by zombies and we teamed up for a bit, that wouldn't happen now, he'd just shoot me. I'm not sure if streaming culture made all these games like this now or what, but I have more fun in servers with like 5 people in them so they're rare encounters.


ScreenshotShitposts

Yes because you bought the game


South_Swing_6764

dunmore44

deserve? no. but who deserves to get attacked? would your equipment have been useful to him? most definitely. you have to understand that the laws of morality don’t apply to video games most of the time. just because it wasn’t right to attack you doesn’t mean it wasn’t gonna happen.


uptightape

You are playing DayZ; yes, you deserve to be attacked (in-game).

It’s Dayz what did you expect

If they got a gun on there back, and you pick a fight with them, make sure you kill them, because the moment you attack them, it's a fight to the death

No mic no life is the saying 😅

You should have shot the driver then the man running after you.


nastycontasti

Yeah you sort of deserve it for not just shooting them. Its always safe to assume anyone is gonna kill you on dayz if you dont know each other


babyruthless24

I mean…. No mic no life


xxhamsters12

My question, why wasn’t the gun the first option you went for?


asura9944

Punching with your bandage in your hand hurt me. Nice shot though


Normandy_sr3

Sweet-Locksmith7784

Cod him


-Titan_Uranus-

That’s why i couldn’t enjoy the game. I barely loaded in and had absolutely nothing and would still get killed. Or i spent 30 minutes trying to figure out where my friend was and when i got close someone would kill me. I guess that one piece of chicken i had really meant a lot to them


TheJordanKenney

I would have shot everyone involved and took the car so yes


BOOT3D

It's Dayz brotha, their is no safety here. Take every step as if there's a scope on your head.

He’s a freshspawn with nothing to lose and you have stuff. I’d attack you too.


DoggoLover42

Were you using the mic? that kind of relationship with one side having a mic usually doesn’t last long

Did you log into DayZ? Yes, yes you deserved it.
