sjc1138 (DayZ) 15 Posted April 10, 2013 Gather round, fellow survivors and listen to my tale of banditry. I do not normally play as a bandit, so I had surprisingly good luck when deciding to do so for the first time.It began when me and a friend were raiding the North-West airfield, and we realised that we were becoming hungry and thirsty fast. So, after each finding various AKs, we headed east and soon found ourselves in the town of Grishino. However, running back up the hill to the forest, our backpacks crammed with food and drink, we heard the sound of a beeping horn and, moments later, we saw an approaching UAZ coming up the dirt track beside us. We took cover in the nearby woodland. We decided to ambush the car without damaging it, so we could take it, as it was a rare occurrence for us to find vehicles, never mind fully repaired. So, we attempted to take out the driver as he drove past. As he did, I missed the first shot and managed to damage a wheel. This did not matter too much as we had previously looted a wheel and were carrying it for this precise reason. The car was still mobile, however, and had driven a fair distance away from us. Just as we gave up hope of looking for it, side chat revealed that the driver had to stop to repair at a nearby deerstand, as he queried his friends on the server in hope that one of them may have been carrying a toolbox. Luckily, I had a toolbox with me, and I told him.I explained to him that I had just managed to escape the "two bandits who I saw shooting at your car".Accepting my offer to repair his car back at Grishino, he parked up outside the church and told me to meet him there. My friend and I knew this seemed like a trap, however we were careful. I holstered my AK-47 and moved over to where he was. I said hello and tried to seem like a friendly player. What I didn't yet know was that he had a sniper friend on a hill. What he didn't know was that I was repairing the car for my own use. His ally sniper covering him had obviously let his guard down, thinking I wasn't a threat. I said goodbye and good luck before riddling his face with Makarov rounds and jumping in the car.Hastily, I pulled the car around and turned it towards the eastern-leading road, when suddenly, I hear a DMR shot ringing from the hill to the west. At this point, I am shouting at my friend to get in the car, with him not expecting me to have stolen it. He ran up to the car and jumped into the passenger seat. I pressed down the W key as hard as I could and accelerated away, with DMR rounds pinging on the road behind me.An average bandit story, but pretty cool nonetheless. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
