    Fun Tale

    A couple of weeks ago it was my second day playing and my mates first. A mate and I had after several hours of distractions had finally met up near the dear stand in Three Valleys. We decided to make our was to Berezino thinking it less likely to be occupied than Cherno and Elektro. So we are heading north looting buildings along the way but staying away from the coastal towns. We make it to a barnish place and he heads in, I (foolishly) leg it across the field an just as I'm entering the door he calls out "Zombies in here don't come in!" Too late. I pull out the hatchet and drop a couple and he shoot a pair also. In amongst it all I get a broken leg. He heads to Berezino for supplies and I start crawling there. 45 minutes or so of crawling later I was hoping a zombie would just find me end it. I hit the edge of town and my hopes rise, I start a tense crawl through looking for the hospital. My mate has gotten hopelessly lost and gets shot after finding a collections of tents somewhere further up the coast. Finally! The Hospital. I hatchet the windows and crawl in and thank you morphine my leg is healed. I raid supplies, crouch out and see a store. I head in... an Alice Pack my first ever, awesome. And my first gun an AKM excellent! I start loading my bag with food and a compass etc and am babbling excitedly to my mate about the stuff I am finding... should have kept my ears peeled. I hear CRACK CRACK CRACK and I am dead. Never saw him but it sounded like it came from the direction of the doorway. Gods this game can be great. I love it. A couple of weeks in and my mate and I still talk about that crawl to survival that ended so abruptly. Also: My first murder (which I still feel bad about, I still wonder if he was actually pointing his gun at me or not) The other time that three times in the space one night he shot me when trying to hit zombies, the last one being fatal (incidentally HIS first murder) The hacker that we saw that just waggled at us in his gillie with his AS50 until we panicked and shot at him. At least nine hits and he just walked it off AND LET US LIVE!. This game has become all about the stories to us. Sure glitches and issues take us out of it at times but we still have the stories.

    My game experience

    Hi atre, Loving these stories, they (and others like it) are a part of the reason I just bought Arma2:co. Anyhow having only played for roughly 45 minutes. In that time I wandered around a forest only to return to very near where I spawned next to a railway line and beach. I saw no one (including zeds) and fell to my death trying to climb down rocks to the train track. The fact that I died made me check on here and I think you can get a compass, which would certainly have made my death occur further from my spawn haha. I will try again this evening and see if I can last longer and maybe see a building at least. Cheers
