I know I kos because some naked will say, "FRIENDLY!" only to have me turn around and have an arrow fly by me or a badly aimed bullet. KOS everyone.

adding a weapon holster so you can see what guns people are carrying will possibly reduce this. right now you cant risk not killing someone naked as he might have a shotty etc.

Seconded. I think this is in development right meow, at least according to their Trello page.

I hope there's gonna be the possibility for concealable weapons along with this. Sawn-off shotty underarm, shank in the side of your boot etc.

If someone can tell me why people just KOS new spawns what is the point all they want to do is play the game at least be brave and give them a chance and fight the with the weapons they have please say if you agree or disagree this is annoying.

I just recently started to bc of what so many other people have experienced. You try and help out new spawn and they eventually try and attack you. This way, I take them out and let them spawn somewhere else

I always wondered - if ppl rly r a fresh spawn why do they cry about being killed? I mean u lose nothing. Or is it your ego crying that u got killed? I mean what is the problem?

Essentially, Rust turns the warm hearted, starry eyed philanthropist into a cold, unfeeling survivalist, and people who don't immediately pose a benefit become obstacles or dangers to the wellbeing of their livelihood.

I've got lots of fat to keep my heart warm though, so I'll still help out a naked, even if it means getting pipe ganked. That's why I leave my valuables at home until I have enough to where it's not too much of a loss.

I think the main issue is gathering resources, almost having enough to get a good start, only to be headshotted from 200 yards away or robbed at shotgunpoint. I know how much it sucks gathering a full stack of wood w/ a stone hatchet over the course of 10 minutes, only to have it robbed from me in a split second by someone with a better weapon than me.

twice I got shotguns and ammo from crates on a well populated server and got killed by people with rocks, once, because of lag and maybe hacking, I couldn't hit him at all.
Second time, I scored several hits but he didn't die and killed me in the end.

that kinda does it for me, gonna take a break and come back when things improve.

When I see a new spawn, it's not just a naked person running around, it's a potential threat to my safety.

Maybe not right now, maybe not in an hour, but eventually, they'll become a threat. If I'm near my base I'll kill them and force them to respawn somewhere else on the map then I don't have to worry about them for a while.

Plus whatever handful of resources they happen to be carrying is a nice bonus... But I don't just kill nakeds for sport.

I agree with this 100% but I'm not gonna lie, Target practice with the bolt is always a HUGE plus... and fun!
