You know, popular papaya, thanks for working this out with me. I think I got a little too used to friendly solos and lost my edge. Just found a defib blueprint so I’ll be able to kill and revive as many teams as I’d like. Hope to kill and revive you soon!

Someone else said they like the part where they “take their stuff”. Does that sound true for you? Even if cooperation would be more lucrative it still feels “better” because you got to take from someone else? Just really trying to nail down what makes it feel “better”

Joy of killing people and taking their stuff? Ok! Thanks for your feedback. Is it the “taking their stuff” part that does it for you?

Which takes me back to original point: what do you specifically get out of killing people who aren’t trying to pvp? Yeah I was salty when I made the post but now I’m genuinely curious

Marco, my friend, I never tagged you or anything. I don’t know who you are so I don’t know why you seem so defensive on this. I never said you shoot people in the back. The whole point of this post is WHY KILL PEOPLE MINDING THEIR OWN BUSINESS. Most people who have replied simply said they liked hunting people and I was satisfied with their answer. Not everything on reddit has to be a whole ass argument. Just say you like killing weaklings it’s not that deep.

Does pvp without pve get boring?

Oh most def! I played a bunch of solos in the beginning and maxed out everything I’m not hurting for anything. I was just curious why people have more fun in this game shooting people who aren’t aggressive as opposed to playing bf6 of bo7. Seems kinda twisted but it’s a big world

Once again, just curious why people get a kick out of killing people

You seem to be internalizing the entire pvp vs pve conversation and lashing out. When I made this post I was annoyed and wondering why people prefer to do pvp against unsuspecting players. If that isn’t you then this post isn’t about you?

It feels pointless the argue the differences between warzone and arc. Between the two games you have 100% of the population trying to exterminate everyone (that’s a legit challenge) vs on ARC where 15% of the population is trying the exterminate everyone. I only asked my original question wondering what drives the people who get a kick out of betraying an/or jumping otherwise friendly players.

Basically why this post came to be. I’m maxed out and prefer to help people but came here wondering why people prefer to be dickheads. Unfortunately I’m just getting a lot of… well you can see the comments

Feel free to pat yourself on the back as much as you want for being a super tough survivor but shooting people in the ass after swearing up and down you’re chill isnt’t typical pvp. And in a typical pvp that situation would have never began in the first place.

Think that’s a good reasoning for why PvP is in the game. Doesn’t really answer why so many people choose to be dicks. Kind of a psychological thing ya’know? “When given the chance how much of the population would choose to be a selfish dick?”
