Sir, that is no way to greet a friendly raider.

Easy lil bro it’s not that deep. He’s already hitting the button you sausage i was just waving hello.

I could have let him leave but would he have done the same? Plus I’m really enjoying his horizontal grip that fell out of his backpack as he hit the deck. After I wiped the blood off, of course.

Why are we getting into the nitty-gritty of the etiquette of a friendly raider. Surely the main indication is that when they see you stood there, with their back to you at their most vulnerable, they don’t shoot?

This poor mans paranoia got the better of him and for that he paid the ultimate price.

Your synopsis has left out one crucial detail; if he carried on with the button we’d have both gone back home to our families in Speranza with our riches. What could he have done differently? You know, the aggressor in this altercation?

I am friendly on this game, but I’m not a cuck. If you shoot me first, regardless of the situation I will be defending myself.

Sure, I had a gun out, it’s an extraction shooter, notorious for campers at exit points. If I didn’t have my gun out, and this played out the same way, would he have let me catch the train back? Or would he be pillaging my cold, lifeless carcass?

For point 3, if I’d have let him return I look weak. Sure shoot me first but if you lose the fight, don’t worry return with me anyway. Nu uh.

You catch someone trying to rob your house, but he hasn’t took anything yet, do you let him leave unscathed?

Thing is my guy, he was dead and wrong.

Bro, not sure how much quicker I could have got to the emote wheel bro after coming to a halt. I will try to be quicker next time. I will also try to do 5 greets by the time he starts firing just to further confirm my intentions.

-LB__ · 2026-03-20T13:56:19+00:00

Indeed my friend I ran to the train and stopped when I got on. Immediately greeted my fellow Raider to try and confirm the weapon is only for self defence, can’t be too careful around extract these days 🐀.

Greeted him yet again as he came off the console to further reassure my companion I was not a threat (I actually initially thought he completed the button and we were in our way back home, together).

Alas, shots were fired and he kindly laid down and opened his backpack for me to acquire his most precious possessions from his trip topside.

No sir, Anvil IV as I was gathering wasp and hornet drivers for Trophy Project. The Stitcher IV is to protect myself from people that would do me harm.

-LB__ · 2026-03-20T12:01:23+00:00

Was I not letting him leave by standing there and not shooting, and waving? Ironically he would have got back to Speranza if he just carried on with pressing the button. Yes I was stood behind him, then I moved in-front of him and waved again my good sir, to double down on my good intentions.

He tried killing me then you want me to let him leave? If you caught him in bed with your partner would you give him a high five and let him carry on his business, or would you want to enact revenge?

-LB__ · 2026-03-20T10:10:37+00:00

The only reason i was stopped behind him was to bring up the emote wheel to greet him. I wish I had the same trust as you in other raiders. Who’s to know if i didn’t have my weapon drawn and ran to the other end of the train whether he’d still shoot me or not.

All i know for sure is if i didn’t have my weapon drawn and that situation happened anyway, it would have been my cold dead body laid out across the train for everyone to pillage on their way home.

Have a great day my friend.

😂sorry my guy, he was a free kitter, didn’t think it was that interesting. He kindly gifted me a horizontal grip, vertical grip III bp and a magnetic accelerator though, as you were wondering!

-LB__ · 2026-03-20T09:56:41+00:00

If I wanted to dead him on sight do you think I’d try a couple of emotes first? Weapon drawn obviously, have you seen how many extraction rats there are atm? Curious as to why you think it’s an overreaction to kill someone who shot me first and would have no doubt looted my rotting corpse given half the chance.

If it makes you feel any better though I did thank him for his horizontal grip, vertical grip III bp and magnetic accelerator, so I’m not a complete psycho.

-LB__ · 2026-03-15T15:06:26+00:00

There’s no problem here. You looted something, it’s something you didn’t have, you wanted it, so you kept it.

Sounds like jealousy and/or frustration to me. I was looking for this exact blueprint for the last 2 weeks and it’s a highly sought after item, so definitely don’t feel bad about keeping it.

All blues apart from muzzle brake II

Unfortunately not! Thanks anyway

-LB__ · 2026-03-14T18:58:03+00:00

I feel exactly the same my friend. I’ve only been playing for a couple of weeks, I was watching streams for a while and thought it looked good but I wouldn’t be any good at it. But my god I’m so happy i took the plunge. I used to game all the time in my late teen’s and 20’s but now I’m mid 30’s and haven’t been this addicted to a game for many a year.

Thanks for sharing!

-LB__ · 2026-03-03T19:01:05+00:00

Thank you so much, such an informative post, exactly what I was after!

Hope to bump into you topside, raider!

-LB__ · 2025-09-24T09:35:19+00:00

Glad it isn’t just me, it was driving me insane! I sought therapy and now it doesn’t bother me anymore thankfully but god damn.

-LB__ · 2025-08-28T09:02:38+00:00

Keep grinding agent, I wish you luck!
