Nighttime NW Airfield Encounter (Story)

After logging back onto a server I had been playing on about 4 hours earlier I noticed that I was missing a good deal of loot. An alpha glitch or something deleted all of my 5.56 rounds from my backpack (not my gun clip though) as well as a map and a few other things. Before I had logged off I had just gotten done doing a rare no-contact sweep of NWAF. So, I had to trudge back about 2 KM to get back some necessities that I had lost from the glitch.

 

I arrived at the western end with all the military tents. I began to look through some tents when I noticed a shine coming from a flashlight while looking through my inventory. I instinctively ran out of the tent on the opposite side from which I had seen the light and hid behind some barricades. This was a non-3rd person server so I peeked over the barricades but could not see the player. So I set up a "lure" to attract him.

 

I had an unattached weapon flashlight in my inventory that I had saved just for this. I put said weapon flashlight down on the ground inside of a tent whilst turned on. If the player approached the flashlight without saying a warning word and in a way that I deemed "sneaky" I'd deem him hostile (because he would be sneaking up on a player, presumably to kill him). I took position with just my head sticking over a barricade. Within 3 minutes I noticed the player I had seen turn off his flashlight in the distance and approach the tent I had placed my flashlight in. He stopped short of getting close to it and instead went prone looking at the entrance at an angle. I assumed he was waiting for someone to walk out so he could kill them. I aimed up and took a few shots. No problem there, an easy kill. While looting his body I noticed an absurd amount of weapon attachments and ammo (500+ rounds!!!). I took my fill of what hadn't been ruined by my bullets and set off.

 

- Killed a Server Hopper?

- Got fat loot

- M4 is now pimped

 

Standalone has been pretty great so far! Time to go explore the upper north seeing that I won't be needing much anytime soon. Cheers!
