why is it you always get killed by other players

[hugh750]

why is it you always get killed by other players when your minding your own business?

today i was killed three times by other players, the first time i was driving back from simeons after delivering a car (this time i wan't killed but shot at), i was driving my surano to an lsc when a player in a adder made a u turn and began chasing me, i floored it and he began shooting at me so i bailed out and shot back at him, he fled, the second time i was in my sandking swb and i was in a parking lot clearing out my gallery when a player being chased by cops blew up my truck (and me).

the third time i was driving my bati 801, i raced past another player going full throttle and he killed in one shot.

I mostly get killed by cops. Players generally aren't a problem. Sure won't be getting killed by any mountain lions online though

[xskinzcity]

its a gang war on these streets. watch your back at all times.

I thought G37 addressed this issue quite well in a similar thread on the same page.

Because its called Grand Theft Auto....why else would you play it?

[codename_duchess]

Because it's Los Santos, baby !!!

[lunaticz0r]

how do you not see them coming on the map? just avoid them!

[Masochron]

Usually happens for a number of reasons.

 

Guns, explosive, vehicular manslaughter, etc...

[Guest]

It happened to me all the time! But now when anyone I suspect comes close, I kill them because I'm sick of getting killed all the time haha and don't take any chances.

[Jock Stewart]

Kill and be killed,

its a game involving you killing other players and blowing them up ... get over it ... doesnt mean there a jerk IRL there just playing the game how its ment to be played

[backward_axis]

Why does the sun rise? Or a baby smile? Why are the stars in the night sky arranged in such a manner?

Some things just ARE...

[NudasPriest]

Normally when you're "minding your own business", are you paying attention to the white blips on the radar coming for you?

 

Probably get caught off guard when you're doing your own thing.

[gnad.1992]

I try to be friendly with everyone but online is full of asshats.

 

And sometimes when I'm in a bad mood I go after someone, act friendly and broken bottle their necks hahaha

[Shabazz916]

The game may "involve" that as you say, but it doesn't necessarily revolve around it. There's no rules that say it's how this game was meant to be played, you as the player make the conscious decision to pull the trigger. By your mentality, every time I get in my tank I'm supposed to rampage and kill everything in sight, right? If they don't pose a threat to me, there's no reason I can't let them go on their merry way. So no, that's not how it's "meant" to be played, it's one the ways it "can" be played, there is a choice dingus.

you, therefore, are a tank wanker (twanker).

This stupid sh*t again.

 

No, it usually tends to me they are an ass in reality. I actually love fighting, etc. However, I know the purpose of the game isn't just randomly kill the sh*t out of people who are minding their own business.

 

Remember that whole "WELL IF YOU WANT GAMES THAT INVOLVE PEACE, GO PLAY SIMS?" How about this one.

 

If you want games revolving killing other players and blowing them up? Go play COD.

[SFBryan18]

I don't.

[RDH1983]

It's the worst when you are killed then the game's over. Have to restart your system and join online again.. oh wait a minute..

[dnlson889]

Avoid players if you are afraid of getting shot at or exploded. Otherwise get right back up and shoot them back for killing you in the first place. That's what I always do.

If I used it to spawn kill and wreak havoc for no good reason, sure, but I don't. I use it on missions, and in response to said "twankers", fight fire with fire.

did the baby smile when it saw hugh750 being shot in his car again?

This. Accept the fact that this game attracts tools, and adjust accordingly. If I join a session and I'm not in the mood for jackasses, I'll find one that isn't as hot. There are sessions with people in them that don't want to kill anything that moves, sometimes it takes a minute to find them.

[Wayne Daniels]

People are just dicks, and it's just a game, that's how they have fun I guess, everyone is different.

The other day it was just me and some other guy and I thought cool nice relxed session. I will go the barbers and then I'll take my bmx to the skate park. This guy came all the way from the other side of the map just to try and kill me

I approve this message!

[CarimboHanky]

i always get killed by other players after i spawnkill them like 20 times in a row...

 

why would they do that?

[NinjaBeezy]

earlier today i drove my trevors blazer out of my garage at weazel plaza, i was minding my own business just doing donuts and what not in front of the garage and like a minute later another player drives out of the same garage on a motor bike, so i give him a friendly honk, he then gets off his bike and shoots and kills me for no reason, i then literally killed him about ten times straight after that, then he went back into his garage and never came out
