So, there I was in a little patch of forest, just minding my own business. A few hours ago I shot a pig to fill up on my meat stash when I realised I needed water. I usually get all my stuff at night and hide throughout the day, much safer that way but it seemed this time I had no choice. Luckily, the forest I'm in has a little pond on the other side so off I go, sneaking from tree to tree, checking my surroundings the whole time. I'm almost there and as I stop in a tree and wait for my breathing to stop, the moment it stops I hear the exact same thing right behind me, almost like an echo. So I turn my head in freelook and there he is, the axe-wielding zombie-bastard. With him being the first player that got that close to me in-game without offing me I actually screamed IRL even though I know you can just pick that face and totally forgot to use direct chat. Instead my instincts forced me to haul my ass the fuck out of there so I pressed down W and started running. I guess he thought I wanted to play tag because he gave chase. The night before, looting a deerstand had gone terribly wrong and I was already low on blood so when I finally turned around to shoot him, he quickly landed a few hits and down I went. And to the guy who killed me, have fun with my gear! If I hadn't screamed like a little girl and actually used direct chat I would've happily given you some stuff, if you were ever friendly at all but I guess this works too :) Back to looting!
