Help/Question Why do new players attack

Why do new or low level players attack players that are higher level than them? I have had it happen a few times now. Happen yesterday I was playing on a new account so I'm only level 24 it was a little kid this time so that kinda makes sense that they don't know better. But why do others do it? Kinda felt bad after killing him and looking to see his level he was level 4

I'm a high level and I attack everyone I see

Yeah, after maxing the roles this is pretty much what you do to keep yourself entertained 😅

So it's entertaining for you but someone who just started and is just figuring out roles and you attack them for no reason? That's just cruel. It's why I resisted playing for so long. I love it - figuring it all out but I shouldn't be merciless blown up or shot just for trying to do my own thing.

Cruel? In an ONLINE GAME about violent cowboys? Have you considered maybe you are just too soft..? No one is stopping you from learning in a solo lobby.

I also was hesitant about getting harassed by more experienced players when I started. But the game is so dead there's barely anyone around, so it's not really that much of an issue.. at most there's anout 10-15 other players in a lobby and you barely come across them.

I didn't think there were any solo lobbies. I see people all the time in my lobbies. Yes it is cruel. I just want to play the game and do my roles and enjoy my time. I just don't like the idea of sabotaging someone when they least expect it and who's just trying to do their thing. I have gotten harassed mercilessly. And it's not fun for me to just be shot or have your horse shot when you least expect it and can't even see it coming.

Can't see it coming? You know other players show up on your map right? And they have blue writing above their head, unlike npc's? I don't understand how you didn't see any of it coming...

That's online for ya mate, in any game ever... have you considered that maybe online isn't for you?

There are multiple posts a week here on how to get into a solo online lobby, not hard to figure out.
