Bigrayne 4 Posted January 10, 2013 I'll get right to it...I log in and immediately someone on the server offered to pick me up in his chopper. (I know what you're thinking.. no I didn't steal the chopper). I asked him to drop me off in Elektro. I parachute out and start looting the town. Around 20 minutes later, I hear and see the small camo jeep (name slips my mind) drive by me while im looting the school. He drives off, I don't hear him anymore, I continue looting.I'm now in one of the coffee houses close to the school and I hear the nice helicopter taxi again. Soon afterwards I hear the jeep as it rushes by me. I then hear gunshots, and a lot of them. The building beside me is getting pummeled by bullets (perhaps from the chopper?). My heart is racing, im laying on the floor and the jeep passes me again. I go by the window and watch the jeep drive up onto the hill north of the city and park hidden within the trees.I then leave the coffee shop and head back into the school to observe. As the chopper makes a few passes I hear an M107 firing rounds at the chopper. I then leave the school and head in the direction of the vehicle. Using binoculars I look in the general direction of the sniper shots and I see two people, one with the sniper, the other with a heavy looking machine gun. Eventually I sneak around them to their flank and approach the jeep. I'm maybe 60 ft. away when I hear a loud explosion and the helicopter crashing to the ground. The sniper got the pilot!I then see them both rushing to the jeep, one gets in, the sniper in a ghillie suit stays behind. Thinking my chances are over I start sneaking towards the sniper when I hear the jeep returning. I duck into the bushes and he parks roughly 20 ft away. I start thinking im screwed at this point and pull out my pistol ready to take him out and try to get away before his sniper buddy kills me. The player is being attacked by zombies and runs up to his friend. This is now my chance.I run to the jeep as a zombie sees me and starts chasing me down. I hop in, turn the car around and start driving as fast as I can to the nearest road. I hear gunshots but no bullets hit the jeep or around me.. I think they were firing at someone in Elektro. I reach the road and i'm home free! I have about 1/6th of a tank left, I find a Jerry can in a nearby town and refill it to full. Now I am enjoying my first car in the game :) I believe I hid that thing pretty well, hopefully it's there when I get back.Moral of the story: If some guy is actually being nice and taxiing people around the map in his brand new chopper, don't be a dickhead and shoot him down when you won't get the chopper anyway. Thanks for reading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mupplo (DayZ) 2 Posted January 10, 2013 That is awesome! Yeah, those guys that taxi people around really put themselves in a lot of danger to help you, too bad most people don't care who they shoot at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They really do. I think when I get the resources to build a helicopter i'll fly rescue missions. Ill stock up on med supplies and fly around the map helping people in need. This car is a great start to building up my supplies :) Got a ton of car parts in it so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Velvet Remedy 11 Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Nice one. By camo jeep i'm guessing its the military offroad. It's a pretty solid vehicle. A great catch, especially when stealing from bandits.My group has an end game goal of starting a taxi service in DayZ. Then I tried performing a tailstand in the chopper.

kalashinkov 34 Posted January 12, 2013 I don't think you will find it , but I certainly hope you do .If you find a car , you should utilise to loot as much as you can . Because you will probably lose it the next time you log in .P.S I never played DayZ , I am waiting for the stand alone , but with me watching every DayZ video on youtube , I can tell you this from other experiences .Hope to see you in SA when it comes out :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
