[edit] What is P.I.S.I.T.?
Short for Playing It Smart... In Trenchcoats, P.I.S.I.T. is a guide meant to educate the so-called 'trenchies' as to how to play the game in an intelligent manner, whilst still being that 'fun' trenchie experience, as well as encourage more players to try the trenchcoat experience.
[edit] Step One: Get Yourself a Trenchcoat
Standard fare. What you need to do is go to your nearest mall, and change your character settings. In the 'coats' slot, you'll find 3 types in the game: 'coats', 'leather coats' and 'greatcoats', but essentially they're the same thing. Pick a colour you like.
Congratulations, you're now in the trenchcoater uniform!
[edit] Step Two: The Trenchie Part
There are several essential fundamentals of being a trenchcoater, however some of these go against the P.I.S.I.T. way. The trenchcoater fundamentals that are acceptable in terms of P.I.S.I.T. are:
- Shooting zombies needlessly
- Spouting one-liners
- Reporting zombie numbers
- Hanging out at forts
- Carrying a crapload of munitions
[edit] Step Three: The Smart Part
Regular trenchcoaters have a reputation of being thick-headded, mindless jerks who would happily regale you with stories of the time they killed a half-dead isolated zombie in the middle of a survivor-controlled suburb, whilst convieniently 'forgetting' the part where they ran away scared after a group of its buddies showed up to loot the mall.
Yeah, a 'smart trenchie' (hereafter referred to as 'coaters') wouldn't do that. A proper coater is there to not only live the trenchcoatter lifestyle, but to help other players with their game too. That means:
- Giving revives
- FAK'ing injured survivors, regardless of their 'trenchie' status
- Repairing barricades to proper barricade levels (no overcading)
- Generator and radio transmitter installations
- Zombie movement reports over appropriate radio frequencies
- Generator maintenance (repairs and refuels)
- Un-ruining buildings
- Holding TRPs
- Identifying BR'ers in Revive Points
- Taking back zombie-controlled suburbs
Remember: You're out there not just to kick some rotting ass, but to help others to kick rotting ass too.
[edit] Conclusion
Well, that's about as much as you need to know about the basic fundamentals of Playing It Smart... In Trenchcoats. Good luck, and happy coating!
