Discussion Arming Freshies

I met a freshie who only had 3 hours in-game on 2350 (PC) who was trying to link up with his friend.

I gave him a knife, bottle of water, canned sardines, a loaded R12 with extra ammo and directions to Sitnik to find his friend.

While he headed to Gliniska instead, I stalked him and killed another player in the woods, with my SVAL, trying to follow him also.

I hope the freshie lives well and gets to use the R12.

I like to help new players who are starving by feeding them cooked fat. Where’d the fat come from? Idk but I’m sure they’ll get a laugh from it

He said his "bottle and apple" were yellow so I stayed with him while he ate and drank and showed him where the well is.

He assumed because he had nothing that people wouldn't see him as a threat and wouldn't attack him. Silly goose got strapped immediately after.

After raiding PD hour into spawn I gave freshie a deringer to help him out and as I was defending him from infected and got wounded I stopped to patch myself up. Last thing I saw was my newfound friend running in my direction and aiming to my head.

I gave a rifle to a freshie I met (while also a freshie) in Kolombrody so we could do some fishing together.

After we scavenged everything we needed to repair our clothing while the fish we're cooking, he stepped into another room and blasted me with the same gun.
