U.B.C.S. Ravin

U.B.C.S. Story. How Hops and Ravin Met.

Recommended Posts

A lot of my friends ask me how Hops and I met. We have been playing together for a week now but our teamwork is amazing and we always seem very accepting of our roles and communicate flawlessly. Always on the same wavelength and we seem to be in key with our goals.

We however, have two very different moral standpoints and views on the deadly land of Chernarus...

Hops and I met actually with him shooting me in the back with a silenced M9. It hurt bad and I whipped around shouting 'Friendly!' surpisingly, he let me live. I bandaged myself in the corner of a barn and clutched my crossbow. He came back later asking if I was alright and he considered killing me, but decided not too. Knowing noone else in the land he and I teamed up. I was reliable and he knew a lot about the land.

We spent a lot of time around Chenro that first get together we had, avoiding people and killing off a few bandits that came at us. It wasn't until the second day when I was with Hop's I realized how much my perspective on this land would turn...

When Hop's was offline I managed to find a ghillie suit and a AK Kobra. I was happy! My first real equipment. Hop's had died at some point so I went to meet him at the Eletro Docks. Some hacker shot me through a crane and killed me when noone could see me. I could see him from third person so I knew I was safe, but somehow he managed to pinpoint me. Saddened by this Hop's and I started over.

Walking through Eletro that night I was feeling bitter, but still thinking I could trust people. Hops and I are sneaking through the middle of town when I spot a player next to us in the cars and we all aim handguns at eachother, two of us and him.

I ask, "Are you friendly?"

The player replied, "Yeah, I am."

Hops turns and aims his gun, keeping aim. "Come over here, get out of the road."

The man crouch walks over slowly, when within range, Hops suddenly shoots the man in the side of the head. His body crumples over. Somehow, we do not attract a single zombie. Mortified I say. "Dude! Hops?! What the hell man!"

Hops begins to pick at the body, grabbing the ammo and food with the Alice pack, telling me. "Its either us or them... Keep that in mind."

Holding the can of beans covered in blood I pass a glance at Hops, then the can and break it open with a still confused expression on my face. The beans taste bitter... but I manage to not complain about it anymore.

I had to get used to it. People were gonna kill us and we had to kill them. It was just a fact I had to accept. We headed out of Electro and I never looked back. Not even knowing if I was a Bandit or simply just surviving.

I guess you could say this was hell.
