Getting found by others players
« on: February 20, 2016, 06:29:20 pm »
Hey,

so im new to the game.
I get found by Players all the time.
Like i travel though the wastelands and stop at a random location.
And then suddently another player comes in there and oneshots me.
Same thing happens with encounters, if i dont leave the encounter fast enough.
Noone did tag me - im 100 % sure of that.
I dont understand how people can find me on some random spots out in the Wastelands, again and again. How can i protect myself from that ?
How are they doing that ?
This happens so often to me its unbelivable.

Switch to Real-Time.

im playing in real time.
This is actually repeatable.
I can move down from the Hub a few squares and go in some random area.
And after 1-3 Minutes a player comes in and kills me.

as i said this is happening without me getting taged.
Unless its possible for people to be invisible in the Follower list on the World map ?
I pay attention that noone tags me.
Im like lvl 9 now, so i know a Few fings. Sadly not enough.

But i can start from my tent. Not taged, walk somewhere into the nothing, go into the area and wait, and after a few minutes a player comes in and kills me.
As long as i dont stay to long in a area i mostly survive, but its anoying as fuck, and i wanna know why this happens.

Well of course you are going to see mass player activity around Hub/Boneyard squares since those are popular hunting grounds (not to mention the game's start area), I suggest moving north towards NCR.

Does that mean, that the only way for them to find me is actually hitting the same exact coordinate that im in ? by the amount of coordinates this seems imposible to me, considering how often this happens.

Or is it square wise, meaning if they enter the same square as im in, they can attack me ?

i understand that. Thats why i wanna know, if in order for other people to find me, do they have to :

a come to the exact same coordinate im in ( for example 1599 : 2172 )
b come to the square im in  (for example square 32 : 42 )
c or is there another way for them to find my exact position, then how ?
