The last time I ever got this hooked on a game was microsoft flight sim 1,that was back in 1999. My 14 year old son told me about Dayz so we embarked on a bit of a mission to get this thing up and running. That's another story in itself. I thought it would all be over in a couple of dayz , How wrong I was!!! my first spawn was the usual disaster, a broken leg crawling around the castle looking for I don't know what, Hey thanks to the guy who didn't kill me , I was trying to talk but with no key knowledge or mic it would have looked a bit weird , my morse was a bit rusty. Well one week in, an hour a night i had a large pack , cooked meat ,( left the Gillie suit) blood, map, gps water coke and everything I needed to explore the map without having to carry a weapon . I must figure out how to put my rifle down without it vanishing??? 45 Dayz days , still happy as , a couple of hello's and a chat in the bush and blood for some young chap, no gun and zombie's are a doddle. looking for a vehicle just for a change and headed east towards Bop Bos?? following shadows and tree lines as usual, watching cleared pasture for 10 mins before crossing, That's why this game is so cool , you can make it as real as you want , I know I couldn't kill in cold blood, but that might be an age thing. Now comes the wierd bit , some guy appeared, (well have you ever watched star Trek,) it was a bit like that without the cool sound , 1 metre in front of me , one shot then disappeared, losing blood I legged it down a bank following the depression into a dark forested area, bandaged up drugs and a drink then on the move slow and stealthy. reversal checks and double back while moving high just below a ridge line in cover, I was about 2 km from the scene then pop there he is 1 metre away in my face no with an auto, no pleas from me , just looked into his dark pixilated eyes while he filled my body with one hundred slugs of hate. Time to keep hold of a weapon.
