DayZ and the Slave Trade

[Jumbaliah 113]

You and your friend just logged in on the coast. You meet up somewhere near Kamyshovo and decide to press your luck and enter the big city of Elektro. You've been playing for a few days and understand the risks, but you figured why not, it's usually a fun time. After getting some food and water you begin your journey. 

 

On the outskirts of town you can hear a few gun shots. Your adrenaline starts to rush and you know you probably shouldn't enter..but you're going to anyway. You creep over sniper hill and lay prone. No one is on the hill. You look into town and can see zeds, lots and lots of zeds. No signs of any survivors, the firehouse appears to be empty so you decide to approach. A few zombies begin to chase you but you decide to sprint into the firehouse and let your trusty axe of justice bring down the retribution. You and your friend enter the firehouse and coordinate with each other to take these monsters down: 

 

"Watch out, don't get in my way im swinging" 

 

Zombie dead. After two or three more rounds of the hokey pokey they're all taken care of and you begin to examine your area. You look near the stair case and there's a man, wearing a mask, a lather jacket, and no pants pointing an M4 straight your way. You raise your hands to the sky and scream "Friendly! Friendly!" he approaches you slowly and another man enters the fire house with a shotgun, and one through the back with an sks. Your heart is really pounding now and you know you're done for. They're going to kill you and take your beans. 

 

"Get the FUCK down. GET ON THE GROUND!" One of them screams. 

 

The man with an sks approaches you from behind and begins to handcuff you. 

 

Your stomach grumbles. 

 

"Please don't kill us man come on. Take what we got, we just spawned." 

 

They say nothing as a red pickup truck pulls in front of the firehouse and honks the horn one time. A burlap sack is put over your head and they execute your friend on the spot. 

 

Your hearing is muffled and your screen is black. You seem to be in the back of the pickup truck as your screen is shaking slightly and you can't move. The truck stops and you hear laughter. They seem to be having a good time. As if your life is some kind of a joke, a game if you will to these psychopaths. You're removed from the truck and taken into a building where your burlap sack is removed. You're horrified. There are 5 other people there tied up. It appears one gave up on life and just logged out. He was handcuffed, dead, and had no signs of bullet wounds.

 

"What the shit is going on here? What are you going to do with me?"

 

One of them hits you with a bat and laughs a little. "Don't kill him we need them alive."

 

"What?"

 

One by one you see the survivors taken from the house to the truck and placed in the back. They come for you last and place the burlap sack back on your head and take you away.

 

Your sack is removed again somewhere in the woods. Two fully equipped gentleman stand near you and you can see another off in the distance. You only assume they have this area locked down. Another vehicle begins to approach in front of you and now you're getting very nervous. I'm just going to log out, you think to your self, something very weird is going on here. The truck approaches and stop in front of you. It takes a couple of minutes for them to exit the vehicle but when they do it's a very fast transaction. The two gentleman you were worth are staring at the ground in front of them picking up what appears to be magazines and you are then shoved into the hands of these two strangers. You all of the sudden wish you could do nothing more than get back into that red pickup. 

 

 

 

 

 

TL;DR....When there are vehicles in this game I want to kidnap people and trade them for weapons.

1: On their way

2: Never going to happen; being a "slave" isn't fun and most people would just log out-it's not like they'd have a chance of keeping any of the gear they'll loose for logging out while handcuffed anyway.

Frankie agree with you both.  This should happen, but won't because people suck:

 

 

TLDR: just watch the first 30 seconds of the vid where Frankie tells you why he posted this vid.

You roleplay much.There's no way slavery would work.

What i suggest is

1:cuff a person

2:steal his blood

3:Keep him alive

4:Repeat until out of blood/bloodbags/logout

5:Profit,trade blood bags for weapons

 

Edit:Frankie was on a roleplay server,that's diferent.

On roleplay servers you can be punished/banned if you deny to roleplay or logout prematurely.

Lol, that too! Mostly what I want to do is capture more then one person at a time. Bring them together and then do something fun. Put them in the street and snipe them all from afar?

Only use I can see for slaves would be to use them for blood. Those with O- blood type would be the most valuable ones.

This post is better suited to your psychiatrist.

You can do this the other way around aswell and its really good fun. Used to do it on an old mod private hive...if I found a camp I didn't trash it. I just moved all the vehicles say 1000m south of were they were. Then when the owners log in, and start moaning about there camp. You announce that you have there cars....and if a certain ransom (usually something silly like 3 cans of mountain dew) are placed on NWA tower at 12:00 midnight....the location of there cars will be given. If not they will see the screenshots on the server forums the next day of all the smouldering wrecks ;)

Only way that it MIGHT work...is if we have traits for our characters...such as medic, mechanic , etc. Holding someone as hostage..their clan may want to save him/her. Or the highest bidder may need some thing repaired or built. Other than that I don't see ppl caring enough to play along with it. Gear is too easily replaced. But a medic or mechanic that has high traits for fixing stuff MIGHT be worth a few cans of bacon or bullets...just my two pennies.

Sounds interesting, there are a couple of ideas about that, who are interested to write to PM
