    You answer your own question, you should not shoot unless you identify 100% your target.

    Did he come out and wave or what? Why would he even walk out into your firing zone,what an idiot. id be turning around and finding cover well before walking out.

    na we had had our shots, got up, put out packs back on and then saw him emerge waving his arms, so we waved back haha. then we could hear him abusing us for tryna shoot him etc. we did kinda say if we WERE tryna shoot him he wouldn't be standing. in the end we just walked off and left him, after a few words of our own anyway lol
