What was your split second decision that either saved you or killed you?

Recommended Posts

Set it up like this: 1.[saved/Killed] 2. [Explain] For myself, I bought this game yesterday and while I was following a veteran guy who allied with me giving supplies and food, we decided to go to the airfields to loot a bit(not too good for me since all I had was a mackerov I found earlier, the veteran had a sniper rifle). Halfway there, theres a survivor who has an lee enfield and says that he has tons of gear, teams up for a bit with us. For a few minutes, we hide from bandit fire in a warehouse, and I get this itching feeling to kill this new guy, he said he has great loot! I make the split second decision and while he is in the perfect crouched position bandaging himself, I headshot him with my mackerov and get all his stuff! I know this seems like a jerk move, but I am not usually a KoS person, and was just paranoid he would kill us both. //edit after this happens even the veteran guy laughs and says I like you kid xD

Finding a full kitted out Huey and instantly thinking "Not Today" and walked on.... Certainly saved my life.

Wait what's a huey? o.0

going prone while under fire... should have sprinted and zig zagged towards the relative safety of the nearby forest! :(

I was pursuing a player around for a few minutes and right before I was going to attack a SUV with mounted machine gun came flying up the road and picked up the player and drove off without seeing me, if I would have engaged him I surely would have been lit up by the mg

Couple of recent ones. Driving back to my camp along the coast road, passed the bridges at Prig and noticed a HUMVEE, the FIRST HUMVEE I've ever seen in game. Skidded to a stop and backed up, went to check the damage on it and BOOM, explosion. Should have just been satisfied with my van and kept going. 2nd one was going straight back to my body to retreive my gear, seeing a guy on the side of the road who didn't see me with a .50, and just ignoring him in an attempt to grab my shit and get out.

A third time. Didn't have a car and was going to try and fix up a hatchback I found. Was just about to get dark and I hear a Ural coming down the road. I hide in the grass with my crossbow, they stop to check out the hatchback and kill all the zombies that spawned and chased their truck. They don't see me for about 5 mins, till a zombie agros me and kill it with the crossbow I had, if that wasn't my mistake, reloading the crossbow was. They both gathered around me, maybe trying to speak to me but I couldn't hear then, just got up and ran when one of them started shooting. Avoided them for a bit after finding cover and bandaging up. Then I went left when I should have gone right and they blasted me.

Made the risky choice of going after a chopper on Skalisty, 2 of us Vs 4 of them. Went over in a PBX, my friend sniped one then got pinned. I flanked the whole way round the island, decided to go for it, ran up the hill, killed two of them, decided not to bandage and killed another sneaking up on me, still decided not to bandage. Got in the chopper, took off, and landed elsewhere, just as more of their clan arrived. Got us a chopper with about 1500 blood left... B)

Saved myself by going prone right in front of someone.

I was running up to the woods near NE AF with a sack full of wheels to complete stealing an offroad truck I found. Out in the open by that East-West road that connects Gvodzdno and Krastnostav, I was checking a map. I heard an approaching vehicle. The map decided to do that "thing" where, when you press M to get out of it again, the screen goes black for a second with I think "Loading..." on it. Sweating and cursing, I stupidly mash the M key. Map goes on and off for a few seconds. Cursing... car approaching, LOUD now. No time to run for it and I didn't want to be seen. No way was I going to jeapordize this offroad because finding the wheels was a pain. I don't murder on sight, even in the North. I just went prone just as he comes screaming by.

I was in a ghillie, right in front of him. Thank god those things are really hard to make out sometimes.

Killed.

I was in BerezhinoCRUNCH, on an apartment roof. I'd heard shots earlier and was just checking around. Saw a guy in the supermarket with a 550. Decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and let him up. He lasted a minute and a half before deciding to cap me. I'm not mad. If I hadn't given him the chance to live, would I have been a better person?

Plus he got mauled by zombies a half hour later. That felt pretty good.

[Killed] So I was sitting there after just attacking someone in a ural killing him but the ural drove off because of the passenger. The original driver was just a bambi as suspected but I continued on and setup with my m14 and ghillie at the edge of the woods near the incident right between cherno and elektro. As I was laying there and focusing on another bambi about 650m away I heard something and then turned around to find a bambi behind me. What do I do? I rolled. I ROLLED. Needless to say he shot me in the face with his makarov... and he was probably happy with his findings.

That's because you can't fly very well.

For me it was that time I decided to hop out of the car to put on a ghillie, seconds later we were in a four way firefight and if I hadn't jumped out we would have not had the advantage of surprise.
