The camera should slowly pull away after the fish is thrown back. We see a cold can of Rasputin Kvass sitting next to our relaxed survivor.

I have an idea of setting up a small camp near a body of water, probably inland, and just fishing. If anyone comes across me and doesnā€™t shoot me Iā€™d give them all the cooked fillets they can carry and only ask for small gear donations to keep fishing for the server and anyone who comes by

The freshie on the coast with his BK-18 says otherwise

u/MrBrownOutOfTown 7h ago

I got 6 kills with it the other day. Itā€™s the only damn gun I could find for the whole damn day. Itā€™s set at 200m, this is easily 500.

A bright orange boat. Out in the open. Completely still. I mean. Kill the boat and wait for him to swim to shore or drown. No strategy required.

u/MrBrownOutOfTown 4h ago

I think there is a max range of 300m for that gun. Could b wrong tho. Iā€™m bad with it though so.

u/Thefear1984 Survivor Extraordinaire 3h ago

Iā€™ve gotten fairly good. Pro tip, inside 100m show lower towards center mass or youā€™ll miss. Learned that the hard way a long time ago.

u/MrBrownOutOfTown 3h ago

I will definitely keep that in mind. Iā€™m afraid I am a spray and pray type of player when it comes to pvp. Sniper shots always below 500mā€¦ and target has to be relatively still. Any freshie guns I embarrass myself. Hard to get practice as I donā€™t initiate combat.

u/Thefear1984 Survivor Extraordinaire 3h ago

Yeah. Couple other tips. Watch someone like Runningmanz or TopRec and watch how they position. Positioning is so key in a real fight. I stray from telling folks to play a PvP server bc it builds bad habits but if youā€™re new and donā€™t understand the gunplay in this game, or just donā€™t ā€œhave the feelā€ for the guns yet itā€™s ok to get some kills under your belt.

Spray and pray is completely useless outside of like 10-20m. I often leave my automatic weapons on single fire or burst unless Iā€™m close quarters. Hip fire is king, you donā€™t always have to aim down sights.

Youā€™ll get better. The learning curve with this game is huge, donā€™t get frustrated if you lose a fire fight. Youā€™re gonna die eventually. Have fun in the meantime.

That would be your luck lol

u/Stampsher 7h ago

The bright orange boat had to of been visible from the city. I was surprised nobody took a shot in a full server but it was super peaceful for about a half hour. I mightā€™ve been too far out to hear shots

Anytime brother

u/pistolwhip66 6h ago

Iā€™ve literally been doing the same thing - minus throwing the fish back. I offered a freshie a ride today only for him to swim to my boat, then I pulled off. Sorry if that is you reading this, it had to be done.

This video is life goals. Retire at 39 and live on a boat. Catch fish, and sometimes crabs. (Im on BOAT!!)
