Scared the crap out of me....

Recommended Posts

It was dark in the city of Berezino. I just had entered the city from the south... and had scavenged the 3 farms next to each other.. when i noticed the dear stand just north of it...

I approached it really slowly to avoid the Z's when all of a sudden on the bottom right of my screen a gps module appears with a movie...

It was so sudden and loud that it scared the crap out me and also because of that, i accidently fired my gun wich attracted a lot of Z's that i had to kill so i couldnt pay attention to the movie... but it was something with extraction bla bla bla....

Anyone else had this or similar ?

The first time I played DayZ, after watching quite a few videos trying to get some idea of what to do, i spawned at night on the beach at Komarovo industrial. I couldn’t see shit, didn't know how to make the torch work, didn't know about the gamma/hdr nightvision cheat (not that i use it anyway).

I walked into the beach and industrial area, saw the silhouettes of the first zombies spawning, could hear the moaning. They were not aggoring because it was pitch black. Then I heard shuffling, the kind of shuffling sound you hear on cement.

As my screen eyes adjusted I could see something crawling along the ground. I watched it, it was travelling in a straight line. I crept closer . It kept going. Then i got to point blank range, just as I was about to say hello I got too close and triggered the zombies danger close scream. I shit my britches. I did not know zombies had the power to Snake their way around at ankle level.

I ran and found my way to the top of the industrial building, into the little room at the top. Frustrated at my inability to get my torch on, i logged out in shame. I had built DayZ up in my mind so much that I neglected to learn how to overcome one of the first obstacles that all new players face. The torch.

No but I wouldn't want to come across it.

Sounds like an advertisement. Is it a private hive?

Seen this twice. It is a hacker with nothing to do, except scare the shit out of and then kill you. Each time it happened, i tried to log out after it and got a 'NO QUITTING' screen which resulted in my death, both times.
