Glad you used the opportunity to put a few bandits in their place.

 

A point of positive criticism if I may.  Your tale is one long sentence, making it hard to follow.  . and , are your friend, sentence structure is key.

 

Cheers

Yea man firefights can get stressfull. after a while they become second nature to you. wanna know real nerve wracking madness? 

 

My group and I were running bambies to elektro and cherno, our group being 7 geared, 2 snipers, 4 m4s, and my bro with sks acting as my spotter till our 8th got on.

we had 3 bambies with us and cherno and elektro had been chocked full of bandits at the time so we took the opportunity to clear it and possibly help some nubs out

 

we enter cherno and one of the bambies we had been telling to get in the back of the group just drops dead. RIGHT in front of my spotter

(poor sap dpesnt know how to prioritize targets XD)

bambies panick and scatter like roaches when a light turns on. group panicks and holes up . we sat there maybe 10 mins just peeking out windows in 3p trying to get a glimpse of SOMTHING. and thats when we see it. we se a "stick" poking out of the top of fire station. dumbass was laying on top with a mosin. peeking around in 3p. spotting people then popping up and shooting. guy had a bayonet on his mosin and it was clipping through the wall like a sore thumb. spotter moves out. sec sniper follows. me and an m4 go around the back. hoping to make this guy panic and try and climb down or somthing. he pops up ready to take a shot and *crack* he drops dead. 

 

at that time we are yeeling in teamspeak trying to figure out who took the shot. no one in our group did. we say fuck it and dip out of town . we staring creeping towards edge of town towards balota and on our way out an m4 starts screaming in chat about movement to our right. about as obvious as the sun is hot we see 4 people running along the tree line. 3 mosins an m4 guy. making short work of them. half the group sticking near the bodies  the others go to round up the stray bambies . finding the 2 surviving ones and 3 more just coming into town. we rounded them up in front of the bodies. handcuffed em. then left em be to struggle out an obtain their new gear lol

 

wether they all got out and split it even and went about their day or ended up killing each other i dont really care. we cleared cherno, and gave some bambies a "chance" . just glad that one fresh spawn got killed instead of spotter XD

I have around 160 hours logged and have killed 4 people. 2 babies who attacked me randomly, one guy with a bat who tried to kos me and then a guy who tried to kill me in a garage while I was playing inventory tetris. I've only been in a few shoot outs and usually end up getting shot through a window or killed by a buddy on accident lol

i have been running into alot more gun fights and well winning i no longer get that stressed any more which is a good thing i now stalk people and i have alot of awesome storys now :)

Yeah that's what makes DayZ truly addictive, and why there are so many bandits. Because the adrenaline rushes when you have been keeping your character alive for hours and have some decent gear, and come face to face with someone with a gun. You can run and hide and still be shaking or play a 10 minute flanking gun battle with 2 or 3 bandits, killing them, and ending up shaking and sweating so bloody much you must stop.. and then the limbo feeling of gathering their gear as fast as possible and then sprinting off into the woods to log off.

 

This is what dayz is really about.

Yeah, I'm trying to get my friends and I more experienced with gun fights so we've been trying to head down to elektro in med-high pop servers. haven't had much luck since we either get there and it's  ghost town oddly or we're killed from the bushes along the way. We should take the trip slower and more carefully but we just wanna get there adn have some fun.
