Hot Topic: CoS players don't know what KOSing, targeting or teaming even means.
This is both a player rant and discussion.
Refresh because CoS have no fucking clue what KoSing even means but the blurt it out everytime they die.
- KoS - Killing ON SIGHT; Killing everything you SEE (keyword everything). This can range from chasing someone down to kill them and then returning to kill other things they spot. (Which I saw an argument yesterday that it's targetting if you "chase" someone into the water. to kill them as if finishing a kill is the most heinous act.
- RK - Random kill; Killing someone randomly for no reason, it can be selective and a few people but not everyone. Can be picking people off or just one person for seemingly no reason or because they're bored. (People use it interchangeably with KoS which is literally just wrong.)
- Self Defense - You'd think it would be self explanatory, but people are fucking stupid. Killing someone who is actively attacking you or your pack mates in certain circumstances. People seem to take to heart when they die for attacking someone - saying that "they needed food, it was for a mission, eyc etc" like, okay? If you're attacking someone they aren't just going to go "Oh, yeah you can kill me for free." Sure, some people do, but people take that for granted which is just stupid.
- Hunting for food - Again, you would think it's self explanatory. But again, people are stupid and take everything ever personally. Hunting for food if you're an omnivore or a carnivore, even if you're an herbivore and hunting for either a packmate or because you know something will drop a plant carcass. People seem to think that you can only hunt when you're on the beink of starvation, but in reality some people just want it for sat, or to carry around for themselves. Not everything is a personal attack you guys.
- This one isn't exactly related to KoS, however it shows up a LOT. Teaming and Packmembers. This is a pack game, there's gonna be packs. If you piss off a person in a pack and the other people attack you, that's not TEAMING, that's them protecting their packmate. I also see people complaining about how they got 3v1'd, etc like everything ever needs to he specifically a 1v1. Either that or smack talking if the pack is struggling against them. No Timmy, not everyone and their grandma is good at pvp, on top of that a lot of the playerbase is literal kids trying to have fun. If you have to bitch on someone for being shit at combat to boost your ego. You're a loser.
- TLDR: learn reading comprehension, or read it with subway surfers in the background.
