New to the forums but somewhat experienced Dayz survivor. So today I wanted to log into a private hive server since the sever that my squad usually plays on is outdated. I spawned somewhere in Komarovo and I wanted to make my way towards Balota airfield to try my luck on some loot. Nothing was spawned in the control tower and neither in the hangers. I know that there are medical tents with four deer stands if I follow the coast. I made my way toward the deer stands and suddenly came to a stop once I saw zombies running. I was able to get a glimpse of the player running along the road. I decided to not bother since it looked like he was heading up the road towards Cherno. I vaulted over the sandbags to enter the fortified medicals tents. I was still able to hear zombies agro nearby. At this time I knew that the player was also heading the deer stands. I did some sneaking around the player. He got hit by a couple of zombies so he headed inside the medical tents. I was able to sneak up behind him with a hatchet as he was bandaging. Changed my channel to direct coms and said "Friendly" He finished up bandaging and replied. "Same" His name was “Gom” That was not a bad survivor encounter. I almost got to kill another player over nothing. But the better in me told me not to kill a player over anything. I usually don't like PvP, unless its necessary. So I made my way towards to Cherno's apartments and began to loot as every survivor does. I was able to find a Lee Enfield with a ton of ammunition. Food, drinks and everything that I needed to survive in the wilderness. I also know that there are medical tents with some rare loot up by the hospital. I didn't really need to go because I was pretty much set to go but I was already so close so why not. I seem to enjoy a lot more I play more stealthily but we all know that's a lot tougher in the major cities with so many zombies around you. One zombie was able to see me so I decided to make a run for it. I knew it was a bad idea because Cherno higher chances of survivor encounters. When I arrived I checked the first tent but it seemed like someone had already looted the area. I heard footsteps near me so I began to crouch walk out of the first tent. I looked to my right and there was a player also crouch walking with a pistol on his hands and an AK-74 on his back. I had no other option than to drop him. I spoke in Direct Coms and simply said "Turn around" and put a .303 round on his chest. He hit the ground with one shot, I'm not taking any chances so I always double tap and put another round in his head to confirm the kill. His name was "Gom" I'm so sorry man.
