U.B.C.S. Story. All Good Things Do Not Last.

Eventually, your luck runs out. No matter how good you got it or think you got it something goes not according to plan.

We had a nice little base setup between Vybor, Airfield and Starry. Noone had found it for weeks. We made the mistake of playing on a server with the Dots enabled to see Zed's and Vehicles. Someone ended up seeing our vehicles and well... Let me tell it below.

Our day started out pretty well, Killed a bandit with an AS50, then we came back to Starry to find a bus parked at the top hill hidden behind some bushes. We camp it out and end up killing one bandit who is driving and then his friend instantly logs out before we can kill him. We blow up the bus and get out of Starry.

Heading back to camp now we recovered it for the most part. Five tents now, truck, car, and a motorbike. We decide to take an hour break and come back.

LORD and behold thirty minutes later Tesumia is spamming our steam chat. "EMERGENCY VEHICLES ARE GONE."

Hops and I rush online to find our cars missing, but none of the tent items missing. The barbed wire around the sight run over, we assume they took the cars and got the hell out quick. We spread out a bit from camp to see if we can spot them.

After a minute of silence, Hop says. "H-hey, I heard them. Get into cover!"

We all break off from camp and get ready to ambush them. The guy in the truck comes barreling over the hill, Nearly running over Hop's. He fits RIGHT between the wheels of the truck and gets undamged. The guy was aiming for our tents! He crushes one of them and throws the car in reverse.

Getting pissed we all unload, AK Kobra, two silenced M4A1's, we light that truck up. My poor baby. The truck is smoking by the time the guy gets out dead. Sudden sniper shots ring out, killing Hops. I dive behind a stone wall and Tesumia takes a few hits, falling back into the trees. I roll behind the stone wall and try to peek out, but the sniper kills me.

Tesumia is blind as a bat with less than 5k blood left. For some reason, the remaining bandits only grab the truck and dirtbike, running away, not looting our corpses and camp.

That's not even the FUN part...

Hop's and I spawn RIGHT next to Chenro, with LOTS of sniper fire coming inside. Our adrenaline running high we simply BOLT into the city, I am on the west side, he is on the east side.

We spend maybe five minutes inside of Chenro... All I remember is bolting in, shouting. "Okay Hop's, inside firestation, Lee-En in here, Going to church." Sniper fire trying to hit me I dodge and run around a survivor with a pistol, he seemed to be trying to aim at me, but like in a bad movie I see a sniper shoot him in the head, he drops dead.

I circle back around quickly, his leg is pointing out of the wall, I loot his body, picking up his backpack. I round the church and quickly scrap up some equipment. Some guy run in with a pistol, I quick swap to the Lee-En and roll behind a few chairs with a ton of shots smashing into the wood over my head. I hear the gun click and I stand up as he is reloading, I can tell the guy is panicked as he tries to run back outside. I gun him in the back.

I rush back out of the church, now with a compass and map, swing by the firestation and Hop's and I regroup. Keep in mind this ALL happened in five minutes.

We run due North of Chenro, sprinting back up. Jenkins logs in to tell us they left the red car on the hill and he collects some of our loot, picking back up our M4A1's and NVG's, scrapping up the gear. Hop's and I take one second to cook up some meat when I discover inside this guys pack is a ghillie suit.

The damn chances of that? Why didn't he put it on? Oh well. I look like a noob with a Le-Enfield and Ghillie. I laugh and we continue to run.

We manage to make it up north, grab the car, turn it to the road and drive AWAY from the old camp, looking back at the fond memories of the amazing camp we drive off to refuel the car and drift down to find a new camp. This time less likely to be stumbled upon.

We lose only a set of ghillie suits, our truck and motor bike. Five tents and a few hours of food.

I am pretty sure they were not expecting us to come back, and when we killed their friend they were in shock, I looted his MP5 with six clips and took his alice pack when I ran back up north.

I love the Mp5SD more than the M4A1.

With my case on the weapons its more what I have ammunition readily available on, as my ventures up north usually go down bad because somehow I always get fucked up by somebody from out of nowhere.

And shock is the best time to strike, specially when somebody doesn't expect you to throw tin cans at them. Worked in my case once, they then got a hatchet to the knee.

It worked after about 30 minutes of me getting into a 1.5 server after it just updated, i'd been killed earlier with all my good gear so had nothing to lose, after barn searching on the cherno outskirts I grabbed a hatchet and some tin cans, so the idea formed in my head. Went sniper hunting.

I made one run away and then nearly got another but his mate hit me.

Spawned in electro, so then proceeded to try and do the same, and eventually killed a few people and ended up with an ALICE pack and an AKM with a few mags, along with wonderful old beans.

... Oh man...

We started keeping our civilian clothing so before we head down south we can swap out into the Ghillies and then just be derps.

I am so going to run hatchet murderer in Eletro, shouting "Nononononono."

Its fun to be different, along with the raging from the guy I got the AKM from was calling me every name under the sun and I was there pissing myself while thanking him.

And oh god, that video is so funny.

My luck with finding ghillies is pretty shit, I never seem to find one and when I do I always seem to die a few minutes after, im just plain unlucky.

We normally always find them in markets or offices. Vybor and other cities along the side, not major cities, generally always has them for us... but this was after .5. I haven't seen any camo outfits. Hm.

I never pick up the AKM. I always go with the Kobra. That red dot sight is amazing. O: Least when I don't have a silenced weapon that is my money maker.

Well then again the loot did changed in either .3/.4 or .5 from what I read of the changelogs so probably changed it to smaller.. But at the time it was either my hatchet or the AKM, so I didn't have much of a choice.
