Sooo.... how does pvp work exactly?
I had a pvp experience in melee combat which kind of... didn't end well...

I want to ask the question. Can you get stunlocked? I mean, i was pushed to the ground(9 str) but i couldn't push the guy to the ground(hit registered but no push to ground) and once did so, they immediately stood up, pushed me to ground and beat me to death while falling around the map.

So question is... is there a way to avoid being stabbed constantly once on floor?

Sidenote: Both characters are surely new/no skill extra in weapon, etc.

How should i handle getting thrown to ground?(Cannot get up at all). And I was the one who initated the attack so I am actually not salty about them killing me(char was illiterature and for that purpose anyway) but i thought I could do more during a combat especially as the one initating.

What button can i press if I want to at all get up in the first place? I would have ran away if it were to be possible to even just stand up.

Sidenote: It was wanky on both sides from experience, because the guy seemed surprised as well like he saw something that shouldn't have been the case.

Its always best to join RP servers for PvP..

Having good context to why a fight breaks out or battles happen is a better experience.

The PvP itself is wonky which is why RP is needed because running and gunning like DayZ in this game can bring alot of bad things as both sides would end up losing due to bad shooting mechanics and horrible desync

"RP" is just a fig leaf for people spam some text macros before killing you for no reason.

Well yeah, but still... this happening I tried to make something fun out of it, because it was but looking at my character being vacuumed felt weird:
