Close encounter with death today.

[hrdrok 183]

So I was browsing around the buildings in the newly added town of Svetloyarsk. (Which by the way is an awesome place.) And was on the second floor of one the 3 story tall downtown buildings. I hear something and quickly turn around, someone is behind me! I shit a brick and sprint up to the third floor and put myself in a corner facing the top of the stairs. At this point I recollect that he had a Magnum in his hands, but not aiming it. Not wanting to kill someone who stumbled across me I decide to just see if he has the gun drawn if/when he comes up the stairs. Hell for all I know the guy just logged in and didn't even know what was going on. I am not a KoS person, BUT I am a survivalist. If you are threatening my survival then you will pay for it. 

 

Anywho, back on topic.

 

He quickly runs up the stairs and aims his Magnum. At this point I know we are going to have a shoot out. I prepared in the split second I had after reaching the top of the stairs (Had nothing in my hands prior to this.) and had my M4 ready. We both probably pull the trigger at the same time. His aim was off. It hit my leg. My shots went right to center of mass closer to the heart. My full auto M4 was no match for his revolver. I unloaded half my clip into him (he was probably dead after the second bullet, but possible lag and my adrenaline force the other 10 bullets to fly.) 

 

At this point I am almost stunned/dazed at just what happen in the last 3 seconds. I thought I was alone then BAM gun fight. I was really disappointed that he hit me in the leg ruining 1 water bottle and my secondary first aid kit...I shouldn't have hesitated when I saw him.

 

But then the real problem jumps up, front and center. One of my legs is broke! I am frikin downtown of this place. Zombies visible EVERYWHERE. (ok there was like 4 zombies, but when you can't walk it sucks) So what I need is some help. Do legs eventually heal on their own? I don't have any indicators of broken limbs, but just making the assumption because it won't let me walk. Here is a screenie of my health status at the moment.

 

 

And the "stuffed" hasn't left my screen in a long while. I have even ate/drank several times since getting it. Does it take a while to go away? I really don't want to try and make a splint, but if I have to, any suggestions on finding those supplies?

I have the same problem with stuffed after the last patch. I overate once (just one portion more after I got the "I am full" message) and ended up throwing up. Now I have had it stuck there for hours. It won't go away but I am not really stuffed either as my status is pretty much the same as yours in the screenshot and I have been eating and drinking normally.

 

As for breaking legs, how do you have 2 medkits and no morphine? :p You can find morphine in residential buildings besides hospitals but they are a rare spawn so you are more likely to craft a splint. You need a rag (obtained by tearing shirts or t-shirts or bandanas) and wooden sticks. Wooden sticks are commonly found in industrial areas such as barns and small industrial shacks and various other industrial buildings. They also spawn in residential buildings sometimes.

Thanks for the advice. Ya I'm not sure how I don't have morphine. It and epi are the two things I don't have...

Keep searching and best of luck with your search. It sucks balls that you got a broken leg but good in a way that you took care of a KOS player.
