StayAlive (DayZ)

I get FUCK! and then i spawn and enjoy the game as a fresh spawn:)

You getter bring a handgrenade;)

A backpack full of rotten fruit:)

Your saying you just accidentally became a bandit, ey?;) Play as you want, roleplay your character as you please.

It looks horrible on my character and I feel like i'm a postal employee.

Well, yesterday i found three bandits roaming around in an open field and i thought I’d have myself a little slaughter. Stood in an elevated position and when they all stood still for a moment, i started to shoot them from about 100-150 metres range with my Mosin. Killed one who spotted me at the same time i fired and another guy who died from a second bullet after i had to reload. Then i got killed from the third guy who was hiding behind some bushes. What went good/bad and how i and maybe even you can learn from this the next time: 1. Waiting for them to slow down was a wise choice, as i would have had much harder time killing them at different ranges/speed. My aiming is not yet perfected either, so being in an elevated position and trying to surprise them was good thinking. 2. I had my revolver aimed at them, but i thought that the range was to long for my aiming. This was my first mistake as i see it. With my revolver i should have been able to kill them with six shots and it would also been easier to follow them through the iron sight/shoot, then from the Mosin at that range and angle. 3. Switching to the Mosin before combat and forgetting how many shoots have been fired before was my second mistake. If I’ve had five shots, instead of two, i would have been able to kill them. 4. Third mistake was that i did not go for the third guy after reloading, but shot at the second one because he was hiding behind a dead body and i had a straight shot. This was pure adrenaline talking and i knew just as i pulled the trigger what mistake i had done. I should have gone for the third guy, because there was a BIG change that the second guy was wounded and not been able to get a shot off. 5. Fourth and last mistake was that i should have gone prone [My elevated position made it impossible to shoot them from a proned position] when i killed the second guy, instead of looking for third guy. This would have made me spot him easier and miminiming the chance of him killing me. So, there you are community. A day in the field for me. I died, but it was one hell of a rush! :)

The Zombies ate the berries!

@Zhrike Fully geared guys with M4A1 running near a costal town= Bandits. If not, they were still to close to my position which i use for taking out bandits:) @Greaves At short to medium long ranges i can use the Mosin in a croched position, but right now aiming at very long distances is hard without being in a proned position and using the bipod.

Akways remember: White and yellow, kill a fellow. Purple and blue, good for you. Red... could be good, could be dead. Always remember to use the: Universal Edibility Test [works for berries to] Stay Safe in Dayz!;)

Thanks for the heads up;)

RULE 1- Don't get attached to your gear;)

If you die it's your own fault;)

No, this is not a game for a 14 year old boy. Includes a lot of graphic and sadistic ways to dispose of people.

Not worthy of a bean.

If you have been playing the game for 160 hours, i'm PRETTY SURE you have managed to test out a lot of the game mechanics;)

You should never, ever have to eat rotten food, normally you don't even have to look that hard when you run through different buildings scavenging for food. There are literary TONS of cans/fruit/rice/cereals in every small village to major city. But, if you are unfortunate and spawn next to a village that recently have been scavenged through, just take a little more time looking in corners, behind objects and i promise you there will be some food! Best thing to do is to get yourself a little food and some soda and just start running north;)

Jupp, there are good and bad server hoppers. I tend to hopp from one server to another if there is less people on the one i am playing one. Nobody wants to play with 5-10 people on a regurarly basis.

I tend to stay away from people and only look at them through a scope. Anyone comes towards my direction with a Mosin raised, say 600-800 metres away, they will die. If they have a raised weapon that could potentially kill me, i will not let them closer.

The bandit giveth and the bandit taketh away.

The end game is when you die;)

Lowering loot is a brilliant idea. It is supposed to be realistic, not a fast run to the nearest military base and voila, all geared up;)

Godly update!:)

Maybe you just are that hard to spot;)

The harsh realities of life.
