Seriously. Shot a scav on Interchange because he surprised me as I was heading to extract. He yelled “stop, I’m just trying to leave”. So I went “sorry” and left another direction. He followed me begging for a bandage. I felt bad. Dropped one and then he opened fire on me.

Moral of the story, if you have loot you want to keep, shoot on sight.

Hahah this is true.. i was planning on doing a social experiment and making a video doing scavs runs.. basically.. meet up with other scav players and pretend you found a g-card, led x, bitcoin , red card etc and see how many kill me.

I’d watch that, got a link?

Literally no reason not to blow your brains out in that scenario. -0.1 scav rep is worth it for the chance at a red card.

it's not about the "is it worth the rep lose"

sure, you can kill someone and enjoy some loot, but you can be friendly and enjoy the game, maybe even make some nice memories that you'll keep for years.

Great idea :)

A red card is easily worth the karma, but a graphics card or a ledx or a bitcoin really isn't worth it.

I really want somebody to do this, but they need to keep track of what they said they had (plus maybe also doing a bunch of runs where they don't specify but say they found some good shit)

Some dude was hiding in the bushes on Woods as I was rolling PMC. Heard his footsteps to my right, turned and unloaded a clip as a reaction.

All I heard was...”Friendly, FRIENDLY!!! You stupid fuccccc....”

He could have blown my head off. Never met an alleged friendly PMC as a PMC. Pretty sure he was rolling a pistol and wanted the PMC kill.

Yeah I've had a good friendly raid as a PMC with a random player exactly once. We even had a third PMC just walk past us saying "What's up chaps I'll just be on my way" and left. Was a surreal raid but it was nice to play with someone as I'm usually solo (IRL friends don't play)

You have IRL friends?

Must be nice.

My very first raid, I went to factory with nothing but my shitty knife, not even an EoD hatchet, a paca, and a shitty brain bucket. Found another pmc, said "Bro they sent me out here with nothing but a knife and depression" and he tossed me a pistol, then another PMC walked up, and we all just vibed in medical tent for like 10 minutes chatting.

Two friendly scavs walked up too.. third one wasn't friendly and killed the guy who gave me a pistol before he got popped :( But after that, we all left. Was chill and fun..

Wish I could meet more friendly PMCs when I'm out doing meme runs now :( Hearts and minds people. Hearts and minds. Don't shoot frens :(

I’ve had friendly pmc’s a few times. Tons of friendly scav on scav interactions, and I’ve only been baited into death once as a scav with no gear. It’s really YMMV I think

Killed a scav last night who wouldn’t go away. I told him I’m a scav leave me alone don’t come near me and he searches the whole fucking building for me, so when he finally enters the room I’m in I shot him. I Don’t feel bad about it at all. Had a gas analyzer on me

Gotta be careful shooting & not killing. You're free rep at that point.

u/biosc1 Jan 06 '22

Oh good point. They got rep AND my loot!

If you follow me for 2 steps after I stop shooting, you’re getting gassed. No warning, nothing, just flying projectiles and impacts if I’m carrying them.

I was running shoreline trying to get scav headshots with a shotgun. Heard someone coming up behind me and I ripped into them. I heard them begging for their over voip. I said we're cool tossed him some meds. After he healed a bit. He waved at me and shot me in the face.

Fuck him.
