zorisx 7 Posted June 23, 2012 Today was my first day of survival, and here is how it went. I spawned today at Kamyshovo. My friend Logan spawned in Prigorodky. I heard Elektro had some interesting loot, so I recommended that us having nothing, we had nothing to lose and everything to gain, despite the threat. After lots of running, sneaking around zombies, and trying to communicate with a passer-byer, I had arrived along the outskirts of the vivid Elektro, where Logan was holding up within the Firestation with an empty Makarov. I've never been in Elektro so it took some coordination. After 3 days IRL we finally found eachother and it was a joyous moment for sure. Among the city ruins I had found a ghillie suit and some meds as well as some Makarov ammo. This proved to be a great opportunity for us as the entire game just changed as soon as I gave him the ammo. It then became a secondary goal of finding medical supplies. Luckily the medical center stands out from afar within the city, and getting some love from it was never in question. When I was in the process of looting the medicine, two young survivors ran by with a horde of zombies following, looking for medical supplies. Shots were fired and I ran as fast as I could through many covers and laid down. Made my way through the outskirts and found Logan within the supermarket. He had been struck recently and was bleeding out in the backroom of the supermarket. A zombie had broken his leg since it materialized through the wall. Amazing bugs. After we took care of the wounds, we left the center of the city and found a little factory overlooking Elektro to the N-West. As we were approaching Logan claimed I should refill on meds before we head off. I left back to the hospital to get what I could and soon after that I heard a humungous flurry of shots being fired. Logan said he was shot! I bolted from the hospital and found him behind a house. Bandaged, Blood Transfusioned the both of us and we took ourselves over a hill and ran the coast near Drakon Island.We searched a few buildings under the massive docking cranes, one particular door we opened revealed a survivor, dead and all. We both gasped and rummaged through the belongings. Found some ammo and made our way past the road/tracks and into the brush. The roads were relentless. Long hiking is definitely a must in this game as I feel that this simulator has accomplished the look, feel and essence of the forests. Very Canadian-like. (live in canada ^^ ) We made our way up hill, downhill and my hunger was flashing red...I had little time. We came across a road with an abandoned HUMV across from a desolate mini-church I suppose it was. After finding only zombies and empty cans we were deprived from our preemptive hopes, and more morphine was used to cure Logan's brittle bones. Trekking the trails and hitting the dirt we were starving. Logan was red from hunger and my character was getting dizzy ( flashing red ). We came across the smallest little hut with a zombie inside which I ended up aggro-ing. This was the most fortunate mistake so far, as this soon-to-be dead zombie gave me a Can of Pasta!!!Feeling much better about my status, we hit the road again in pursuit of another city. A castle sign let us knew what was ahead and I couldn't be happier from what came next...Approaching the castle, we were surrounded by infected. Hacking and shooting our way through, we were rewarded with beautiful scenery, extra can of pasta, a water canteen and my first weapon! Luckily I kept extra Makarov rounds =)Unleashed a bullet and it felt sweet....so sweet. Made our back on a path that led us to the Crane docks outside of Elektro, near Drakon Island again. My intent was to get more food and find a place to hold up. Logan was flashing red. This ended up being a fatal choice.Logan and I split apart. I think after doing so well we both got really cocky. Shooting zombies, finding little of loot and losing ourselves. I followed the trail of opened doors and dead zombies until I heard Logan screaming that he got knocked out and that the zombie was eating his flesh!!! I quickly bolted over and kept calling to where he was. The message appeared. Logan was killed. This was horrid. I was alone again. I searched for his body and was surprised that a fellow survivor was being chased by zombies. I shot it up and bandaged the stranger survivor. He didnt have a mic so we communicated with nods and head movement. I told him of what happened and we made way to slaughter the zombie that killed Logan. I grabbed what I could of his and made my way to refill on supplies so that next time we meet, we would be ready. END OF DAY ONE ////TL : DR Version::My friend Logan and I found a pistol and supplies in Elektro, opened a door to a dead survivor across from Drakoni. Went to a castle Rog where we found my first weapon a Makarov and Logan ended up dying from a single zombie hit that knocked him out.
