Railsplitter84 45 Posted February 12, 2014 So I was in Berezino the other day, trying to find a (#@%*%! can opener! After a while I gave up and headed up to the construction site on the south end of town to get maybe some ammo or a less damaged backpack, ya know, a change of pace from all those annoying residential buildings and their multiple doors that don't always work yet (not complaining...Alpha, I know, I know...) Anyways I like to start at the top and work my way down, and as I'm doing so I see 2, not one, but TWO guys come into the ground floor. They don't see me as I duck behind a box, get my new SKS with scope ready, and wait... Now lemme say I HATE KOS, and play the game purely to try and survive. If it were the end of the world I might not help someone but I sure as heck wouldn't kill them, so I let these guys loot their way to me, and then just as they get to my floor I pop up from behind the box, heart pounding, ears buzzing, mouth dry, and line up a shot on the first one, while hollering "don't want trouble guys!!!!" into the mic. They both freeze in their tracks, one puts his hands up and the other just stands there for a sec, then says he'll put his weapon away. I lower mine but keep it out. They said they didn't want trouble either and did I need anything? Appears all I needed was can openers and they didn't have any either! So we chatted for a few, I asked if they minded if I took a backpack I'd had my eye on before they showed up. They didn't want it so I took it, and also one without a gun gave me two boxes of ammo for my SKS. Another player came towards us and these guys were getting scared, as was I. (we all thought it was the other guy's buddy!) One of them starts running around and worried that he doesn't have a gun. I dropped my FNX45 and 40 rounds for him (I didn't have a mag yet). Then we wished each other luck and I took off running before anyone changed their mind! Later that day bumped into the server owner who got the drop on me up at north end of Berezino, held me at gunpoint as we talked for a few minutes, and then wished me luck as he let me go about my business. One good turn deserves another I suppose... At any rate, I share this with all you KOS spaztastics out there, either hold me up, tie me up, and take what you need, or be a pal and we'll help each other. Shoutouts to you 3 guys I ran into last night, you're all first-rate survivors! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dekartz 315 Posted February 12, 2014 I've had encounters like this. On the airfields no less. It's weird because generally I assume and accept that if someone spots me before I spot them near any military spawn, they're going to shoot me in the face.

DirtyscumbagLith 270 Posted February 12, 2014 Good story. 2 nights ago, me and and a friend saw a bambi and wanted to talk with him. He hid in the grass but we found him. Now, coming from the school of hard knocks in Dayz, we immediately handcuffed him and started asking questions. The guy was pretty cool and funny so we joked with him, gave him a bunch of food, medicine and off he went after he freed himself. So that goes to the kiddies- have a cool personality and you might not get shot. You'll probably get food and stuff for being cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thundertom 1 Posted February 12, 2014 Now, coming from the school of hard knocks in Dayz, we immediately handcuffed him and started asking questions. Noob question; How do I do this? I've found handcuffs, but how can I apply them to other players? Same goes for IV's and bandages and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Close your inventory and walk up to the person and use the action button when it appears(scroll to correct option if you have multiple). You can also just hotkey it into your hands and do it that way also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyscumbagLith 270 Posted February 12, 2014 And so this morphs into "Amuse me or die."LOL! Its common sense, really. 2 guys with m4's. Who is going to be let go: the jerk or the guy who's funny/cool? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
