FURIOUSxFATASS

i had some decent stuff on my character this afternoon and was exploring the far west on the coast (yes i know other players are likely to be at the coast too) and all of the sudden a gunshot rang out, lucky me, it only grazed my arm but i had no idea where the shot came from so i dove down behind a bush and bandaged myself, and the fool ran right past the bush i was hiding at without looking so i put a enfield round in his back killing him with one shot. i had to become a bandit but i survived and i took a map as a souvenir of his corpse. and i know the lee enfield might as well be called "dinner bell" when fired near zombies but at close range against bandits it kinda awesome ^^

nice to see this topic has gotten a good deal of attention, and yes i am new to the game, but i love it already ^^ besides that i had a little fun experience in one of the coastal towns this afternoon, i was looting a supermarket and on my way out i spotted and unarmed survivor across the street, and i could literally see the panic that gripped him, his flaslight ended up pointing up in the sky.

today i had what i now state is the worst scare of my gaming history, and i've played a good deal of horror games. i was running with my flashlight, in a field in the middle of isolated woodlands, it was in the nighttime and it was pitch black except from where my flashlight was pointing, i go foward running 10-20 meters then stop and shine some light to orient in the darkness, and then from one point shinning light forward, i ran blind and next time i stopped and shined the light, a creature was in the middle of the cone of light... one mini heart attack later i decided to take a break from DayZ for a day or 2. and here comes the kicker, the creature was a cow >:( i almost shat a brick because of a cow.... anyone else got something scary, weird or just WTF!? inducing they want to share? ^_^
