As long as you have a good server with under 20 people it isn't so bad. Most kills aren't with traps though. Shotguns and SMGs are the weapons to be reckoned with. There's this awful glitch though where if somebody dies they can respawn invisible, which is hell when you've killed somebody and they're coming to collect their shit.
I like the community though. At my current base I have a truce agreement with the neighbors. We trade him bombs and guns for resources. Usually people will leave you with some shit unless you piss them off.

How long does it take to get proficient? I spent a lot of time on Rust and H1z1 and never got good at combat against other ppl

The bulk of it isn't skill, it's knowing the game. Knowing what to build your base out of, how to build your base, what to keep and what to scrap, etc. It's more about tactics in the long run. You will inevitably get crushed at some point and lose some shit, but then you start a new base and move on.
I also tend to avoid other players when I hear them unless I know I can get the jump. Like one time I came across this base with a weak ass hatch and as soon as I started breaking it down I hear somebody yell on mic, "HEY YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!" And then he fired a pistol. I had too much shit to risk losing, so I ran away, marked it on my map and came back when he wasn't there.
Bitch ass move? Yes. But that's what PVP is for.

I haven't played this in ages. You looking forward to the gun overhaul in A17? It'll be nice to find whole guns again instead of just shitty parts.
By the way, how do you have almost 90k posts? You on the adderall, sploo?

The major thing about this game in my opinion is that the whole world is actually destructible. Including the ground itself.
I remember using explosives to create a giant hole in the ground and then build my base bellow it.
Good times.
