zfleming12 395 Posted January 2, 2013 Having died to a zombie a few minutes earlier, I began my new adventure for the night making my way west along the coast trying to reconnect with a fellow Bambi who had been working with me. Unfortunately, I was never able to find him but I decided to carry on, making a stop at a farm and slaughterhouse. There I found a massive supply of ammo and a Lee Enfield. Fortune was smiling upon me. I decided to take a few moments and practice using the gun on the few walkers stumbling about. Satisfying myself after a few dead Zs, I continued westward until I found myself in a rather empty city, at the top of a hill, where I was doing my best to avoid Zeds. I found a store, and proceeded to raid it for supplies, only to be all of a sudden yanked into the church yard of Cherno by a hacker. I didn't hesitate. I ran to the corner of the wall and the church and logged out asap. Ten minutes later I returned to find that the hacker had blown the church up and killed everyone else. I immediately made a dash for the dock, logged out again and switched to a more empty server. I did not want to risk being killed by another hacker so I decided to go solo for the night. I made my way to the store, in the dark of the night, a thunder storm raging above my head. The air was dark and solemn at that moment, the lightning illuminating the undead around me as I made my way to the Cherno store. There among a tent in the middle of the store, I found the right gear for my journey and immediately made a dash for the major Airfield. Even as the rain died away, thunder and lightning continued, rattling my nerves at times. As I neared my destination, something caught my eye. Smoke....billowing into the sky in the distance.I diverged from my route and found to my absolute joy for the first time ever in my plays of Day Z, a Helli crash site! I crawled my way over to the wreckage careful to avoid the undead and found a very nice machine gun (could not remember the name of it). I continued forward and then noticed more light ahead of me.Another crash site?!No a mere humble fire site, however its exsistance reminded me that at any moment, any time, some could log right in. I had to make haste!Finally I reached my destination.Except there were no zombies.....Where were they? Hiding? Had they not spawned in. I cautiously made my way towards the barracks, rounded the cornerand found an army of them.Making a mad dash for a pine tree, I laid there waiting untill they began to disperse before throwing two flares. One flare was thrown into the middle of the barracks grounds to illuminate it. The other was used (and this was very exciting to see it actually work) was use to draw away attention of the dead. I rolled my way into the barracks and began to search. My goal was the elusive NVGs. Sadly, I could find nothing but a set of binoculars and food.I was preparing to leave when I accidently discharged my weapon. I turned to run for the door and found to my absolute horror a lone dead in my way of the door. I had no other means. I shot him. This however made it worse. Before I knew it, five more had stumbled inside behind him as they had all gathered outside of the building. Soon five turned to ten, then to twenty, eventually, forty zombies were crawling their way to me inside. I fired. I fired. I fired again, I kept fireing every single one but MORE STILL CAME. As I fired, my flare outside went out and thunder rumbled overhead. I was terrified. I was truly afraid for the first time. I fired my last few shots and switched to my lee enfield. Eventually I had no choice. My blood was dangerously low and I would run out of ammo before I could kill every single one of them. I backed into the bunk room of the barrack and shut the door, checked the gear one last time and logged out. When I awoke the next day, I found to my delight a military shotgun. I threw away my machine and went to reload, when I blacked out. My blood was red light flashing I needed to escape. I made a dash for it taking out three more deads before blacking out thankfully in the confines of a pine tree outside of the base.I am now still alive.....but I need blood badly. Do not know how long I will make it, or how far. Know that finally I have felt true terror and fear for the first time in a long time playing this video game. Total zombies killed= 69.Thank you for your time. And thank you Mr. Dean Rocket for this Mod. This is truly one of the most amazing zombie games I have ever had the grace to play. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
