Fraggle (DayZ)

Special Event "Race day!"

Recommended Posts

Well, I've got all of these posts but I've never uploaded a vid so here goes!

Some of the guy's decided to arrange a Rallye because the server was changing maps. Everyone had a few day's to prepare their vehicles and a ceasefire was arranged (normal play continued on the other servers). The race was from the SE corner of the map and there were 2 checkpoints that had to be crossed (Gorka & Komoravo). We arranged for some bandits to wait at the checkpoints and they were allowed to damage the vehicles on the way past using small-arms fire.

Anyhoo, it was great fun so I made a short vid of it. There was only a couple of people FRAPsing which is a shame because we missed some of the checkpoint action.

BTW - For future reference, if Youtube asks, don't click "Stabalise ViD" - It has some weird side effects...

We've only just started to arrange the next one, it's going well so we're hoping to make it a regular thing. It's a nice change to running around being paranoid. We're hoping to have a Bloodbath Weekend on a custom map too.

Sheer genius I laughed, I cried and even might have jibbed. I would participate only I would be inclined to ride passenger I think everyone knows my track record on vehicles.

For the last one we called a ceasfire on the server for a few days, it gave people time to find and repair their vehicles. The next one looks like it's going to be a lot more popular so we may provide vehicles. We're discussing the rules now but we're thinking of having to swap vehicles half way.

Lol, you need to brush up on ur trolling technique, that sucked.

That's what makes it funny though. Everyone was carrying spares and still only 2 out of 8 vehicles finished.

Latest plans include different events in one day now to mix things up a bit. Most of us are pretty hardcore players so it's nice to just chill out for a few hours and have a laugh.

Great news. Please announce the event as early as possible so people like me can adjust their working shifts and consume enough beverages before the race because driving not intoxicated is for carebears! :P

Lol, some of the guy's were trying to launch the ATV off of the ski jump on Lingor earlier. One of them landed an epic jump, it looks amazing. I'm going to try and get the guys to agree to have a "big-air" event on the next race day.
