    So, to people who hate people killing new spawns, for one how do we know your a new spawn?? I'll give an example, once this 'naked guy' ran over to me yelling "FRIENDLY FRIENDLY IM NEW CAN I HAVE SOME FOOD PLEASE" so I replied sure then dropped him some food. As I was in my inventory dropping food, he pulled out a shotgun and killed me. So from now on, EVERYONE IS A THREAT AND WILL BE DEALT WITH ACCORDINGLY!

    This exact thing happened to me. Like...exactly. Asked for food, then bam.

    This is the way I usually do it. When someone approaces me, I instantly take a gun out and aim right at their head. I wait to see if they say anything or do anything. If they say friendly, il ask what they want. If they want food or items, I tell them to go very far away and come back after like a minute. They will find the items where I was standing once they come back. Il be gone by then though.

    If they approach me and don't say anything and just stand there, Il shoot them once as a warning. They usually run away after that.

    It's part of the game. Either be smart enough to ween out the liars or suffer the consequences. If you're alone it's best to just avoid people or KOS. Being a nice guy won't get you far and whining about it just makes you look bad.

    That's the game.
    You do a fault if you trust any strange people.
    A lot of people cloak theirselves as 'naked men'.
    They're working on it. So you can see the weapons on the back of the people soon.

    For for this time some tips:

    If you want to help a naked man, be sure you aim at him the all time. Never turn your back on him.
    I had similar situations, but I also had some friends which were aiming at him.

    Or the common way: shoot him before he even can pull out a weapon.

    Exact same thing happened to me.

    Server: Noobs East Coast
    Player: Insidious Pie

    I was trying to be a nice guy and give him some supplies. As I had my bag open he blew my head off.

    Ok...part of the game. I get that. But my trust is gone. If anyone runs up to me they will be shot. End of story. No questions asked.

    Christianity...? Please exclude fairytales, religion and other such fiction from an otherwise serious discussion.
    Fortunally, you can choose your own morals, with total disregard of such fantasies.

    I'm going to enjoy it a whole lot more when there are visible inventories. Not everything of course, but the larger things. If you're carrying a whole bunch of wood, you'd appear to have maybe a wooden pallet strapped to your back. if you're carrying a weapon, it would be visible on your hip or whatever.

    If you had extra cloth you could make slightly baggier clothes that you could conceal weapons in while you're wearing them, etc.

    Really? I'd say murderers, rapists, theives, or suchlike would be worse.
    Also people who drag religion in an otherwise religionfree debate would do well in understanding that not all people reading will share their beliefs. Sure, perhaps i was a bit harsh in my choices of words, but in an enlightened era as this is..

    Now back to Rust-discussions?

    They are generally the same people that are having said beliefs forced upon them without choice. Most of these beliefs are indoctrinated on children at a young age where they do not realize they have a choice and when they grow up to the point where they understand that they have a choice its already too late.

    Even legitimate new spawns can be armed. I know because on my first time on my new server I spawned by Rad-town and got a MP5 and almost a full clip of 9mm ammo. Still naked, still spawned ~10 minutes ago, but now completely lethal.

    I don't shoot nakeds unless they are aggressive and don't listen well.

    "Hey! in this house! Give me some chicken!"
    Go to roof, drop chicken.
    "Here, now leave my area or I will shoot you."
    Naked runs around my house a bunch of times.
    )Pop, Pop! dead(

    "Hey! Why'd you kill me?"

    "I wanted you gone more than I cared about being nice. Saavy?"

    "You didn't have to kill me!"

    "I didn't have to give you chicken or let you live either. Come on back if you want more."

    "More chicken?"

    "Which do you think I mean?"

    (Player has disconnected.)

    And that! Is survival of the fittest.

    people nowadays even fail to think that THIS is a pvp based game.
    why? cause there are weapons in it! easy as that right?

    let me check, starbound for example has weapons too, so its key element must be pvp right?

    this is the explanation of 90% of the users here playing rust. 12 year old kids that came from dayz, cod, cs:go...without using their brains at any time of the day!

    and no i am not whining because i got killed several times, i dont care if i lose all shit or getting raided cause its part of the game. i totally admit that

    the only thing that pisses me off are kids running around shooting fresh spawns for fun or fresh spawns running around beeing annoying shitheads.

    just to clear things out!

    the key element of rust is as follows:

    its a big world survival game with an emphasis of crafting and building
    just because there are guns ingame doesnt mean that the key element is beeing a dick murdering everyone totally brainless while screaming into the microphone with the voice of a 6 year old girl.

    I do not kill naked people on sight.

    But I do not allow them within 20 meters of me either. If a naked guy comes running at me yelling friendly, i yell back 'piss off or get shot'. If they ignore my warning, well, they are a dead naked guy lol.

    Its called stay the fuck away from everyone. Then you dont piss people off :P

    I gather naked. Then when people are chasing me, I yell, "I'm naked, I don't have shit! Leave me alone!"

    Nobody believes me, but they do eventually stop following me. Except for the people with speed-hacks. They catch up to you and beat you in the back of the head with whatever they have while you are sprinting away.

    Let me tell you about my first kevlar:

    I found a shotgun and a few shells. I took said shotgun, shoved it into the mouth of someone in kevlar farming, blew his brains out and took it.

    Didnt yell friendly, didnt have armor. If that guy wouldve been aware of the storage capacity of my anus, he wouldve never let me get so close.


    Sometimes, a guys gotta do what a guys gotta do.

    Ah. I would have to agree.

    If your carrying any type of weapon, even a Hatchet. It should show. Possibly could be fixed when the player customizing comes out.

    I think that there should be Primary, Secondary and melee/tool slots, and lets say to put a mp5 from ur inventory to your Primary slot, it takes 5-10 sec of standing still to do so with character animations, yeah people might be all like, DAYZ DAYZ DAYZ OMGGGG! But that idea is a solid idea especially with a survival pvp game!

    Nah, you are wrong. It is cause it is a game and people are so detached that it doesn't work.

    As a rapist you like to rape rapist more then normal people, crazy attracts crazy. Same reason as why in jail, child molester will suffer the ultimate punishment in jail. Nothing more satisfying, all humans essentially want to feel as if they make the world a better place, in games however, its all about taking your frustration of work/life out on others...

    Depends on how people take games though.
    The problem within most games is that their exists win states. An example being that when you call "check mate" in Chess, that means you have won. Most games have these types of win states which are known as explicit win states, but in games like Rust we have inexplicit win states.
    I'd go as far as to say Rust has no win state outside of possibly getting all the blueprints in the game, and that it exists in a game type where win states are theoretically and physically impossible, but I digress.
    In Rust, you are not explicitly or inexplicitly left with little or more options, you are left to your free-will and what is in the game mechanics. It's called the Butterfly Effect, and the entire concept is that you decide what you want to be known for. If you go around killing people because you want to blow off steam, then that's your own choice, but you are bound to have the whole, what goes around, comes around type thing happening with some people seeking retribution. At the same time you could also have players who act as charitably and are seen as being someone who helps others in their time in need.
    One thing you can say though is that in Rust, people who act on paranoia will probably experience quiet a bit of cognitive dissonance about their actions, because theirs a belief that if you don't kill people, they'll kill you, but at the same time you have to realize that the people you shoot in this game are going to have a bad experience playing the game if you simply kill freely. Depending on the person you are, that could really send you in a morale quagmire.

    I guess what I am trying to say could be summed up with one quote, "There are things men can do to one another that are sobering to the soul. It is one thing to reconcile these things with God, but another to square it with yourself."
