My first post and thought I'd add to a great thread. So I been playing this mod for a couple of weeks after noticing some videos kicking about Youtube and bought Arma yada yada, loving it so far and been getting to grips with the dodgy inventory, finally started getting to the point where I'm good to get equipped and get North etc etc but still getting killed by players, they always seem to get the drop on me, probably me being to hasty as usual! :) But anyway I today I started again as the night before I got greedy (again) and got 1 shotted at NWAF when I pretty much had all I needed but anyways, so I spawn near Electro and head in town dodging Zeds and the odd player manage to pick up a sniper rifle and supplies to get me North so I head out of Electro but was a little bored so decided to head up the hill and try the rifle out as I haven't given sniping a chance yet heads around to the east hillside sees a bush think hey I'll jump in that...bad idea, leg broken and of course the sweep of the hospital minutes earlier yielded no morphine so was contemplating respawning or just crawl and camp for awhile. So I drags myself along a bit but not much movement around town so why not try the 500m to the hospital in the hope of respawning loots? snails it along thinking it's only seconds and I'm gonna get an axe or a zed to finish me off but no made it and by the luck of Jebus there was some, saved! patched myself up and got the hell out of Dodge and head back North! Running out of the woods down hill side East of Electro, I started hearing gun fire, maybe it's back in town? carries on some and more shots and aimed in my direction this time no doubt but as usual I have no idea which direction so I just turns tail and runs for the woods I just left, surly if I sprint at full speed whoever was taking shots and sniping from a distance wouldn't catch me? so there I am running along and the fizz of more shots, dammit, how the hell? turns around nothing but then WTF!!!??? a sniper right behind me firing what looks like the big frikking 50 cal sniper rifle in a Ghile suit but he's not aiming at me so again I'm thinking what the flux is going on? was I being sniped from the woods I initially came from anyway in that split second or two of thinking that I shot this fella and then proceeded to loot this chap and low and behold this guy has all the phat loots, NVG, rangefinder, GPS the full monty and not to forget the rifle, m9 sd and half dozen clips for both, thank you very much kind sir, weeks looking in helis and barracks and I get this lucky? But then more shots!...dammit this guy have a sniper partner and why I had trouble locating the gunfire the first time? I wasn't waiting to find out...I was outta there. Running around on a pitch black server with my new NVGs going wow these just made the game hella less stressful I've been thinking was this guy maybe a hacker or a snipe team with the best kit but that couldn't hit the side of a barn? as something I forgot to mention through the leg break and first trip through town I was down to 4k health any kind of shot I was dead, never mind a 50 cal and they/him took at least a dozen shots, strange very strange. I sadly lost the range finder in a loot bug but got all the rest and still trying to work out how to use the GPS? traveled around a few hours got a FAL with the BFS (Big fu..scope!) and 5 clips, set up camp with supplies that will last me for days, just hope no one finds my campsite, gonna think about getting my hands on a vehicle next came across a couple of bicycles but not seen anything apart from those and a boat, think that'll be my next target, oh and of course keeping alive with my new found loots! Thank you Rocket and co for a truly wonderful mod, hell I ain't even started any team play yet, that would add so much more will start looking soon I guess, keep up the great work though and will follow/play through the development phase and hopefully see a stand alone product in the future, it deserves to be, a breath of fresh air even with a wiff of Zombie!
