Meekalew 44 Posted April 8, 2014 I have been playing DayZ for awhile, but I had never killed anyone; generally, I avoided everyone I met out of fear of getting shot. So, I linked up with a friend who suggested we foray into Elektro on a full server for the thrill of it... so, I said, "You're gonna get me killed, aren't you?" to which his response was, "Nah, you'll be fine!" We managed to sneak our way into a two story building, make sure it was clear, and then took stock of our surroundings. I was covering the door with my M4, and my buddy was covering the windows with his Mosin. We could see a sniper in a nearby building but could get a shot on him. But then, the sniping stopped for about 5-10 minutes. My friend snipes a few armed players with their weapons out; and then suddenly, he's out cold... the sniper in the other building somehow ended up in our building; there was no ammo 'noise' when they came in, and my friend was shot. Suddenly, I see the guy who shot my friend appear in the doorway from the room in which he appeared, apparently, he was unaware that I was in the building too, since I had been holding my fire and just watching the door... so I unload my M4 into him, and he drops. Then, as I try to admin an EpiPen to my friend, another guy comes running into the room swinging a bat wildly, and I quickly change to my gun and he's down. I try to get the EpiPen again, and yet another comes running in... so, I gun him down. My friend dies while I'm fighting the incursion, and is respawned outside Elektro. A momentary break in the fight in what's become a one person hold out, so just to be sure, I put a bullet in each of the heads of the people I had shot to absolutely ensure they are dead. No surprises. So, I continue holding down the fort while my friend is making a desperate run for the building we were in, where he tries to salvage what gear he could. Once he gets there, I'm standing there with a pile of bodies building around me... In the meantime, another guy runs up the stairs, weapon drawn, I start shooting, he drops to prone and is rolling all over the floor like a madman, while I'm plugging him full of bullets... so, he's down. It seems all of Elektro are being drawn to this building! I tell my friend, "We gotta get outta here, everyone is coming here!" He grabs his Mossin (it miraculously survived the slaughter) and what little ammo is not ruined and I'm like, "Cover me!" while I make my escape. He kills three more, running into the building as I make my way to freedom. The two of us boot it for the tree lines, using whatever we could for cover and obstacles... running from Elektro like crazy people. As we crest the hill and escape Elektro I say to my friend, "Well, at least you didn't get me killed..." So, my first combat encounter in DayZ consisted of laying out several bodies... and I don't think I'd ever go into Elektro again without an entire fireteam at my back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murlough 192 Posted April 8, 2014 That sounds awesome! Ive never killed anyone yet either. Once when i was in Electro i walked into a hospital and saw a guy standing in the middle of the hall bleeding out. I thought if he noticed me i was dead so i decided to get him first with my handy shovel. As I took my first swing his buddy came in and chased me out of Electro with his fire axe of death. Lol long story short never attack someone with a shovel in Electro XD. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anothercynicalbrit 166 Posted April 8, 2014 This belongs in the new player section, everyday stuff tbh but electro is a bloodbath as you figured out on your own last night. I find it best to have at least four people with you if you really want to survive although you seemed to do fine with two. That being said when i am playing alone i still go to electro for fun but i make sure i am not too attached to my gear as it probably wont last that long.

Facetentacles 92 Posted April 8, 2014 Far more entertaining than last night when a zombie made me bleed and I tried to bandage while my friend killed it, and I apparently stepped in front of him and took an axe to the face. Then right as I ran back and got my gear the server reset and I had no gear. I may be a bit bitter. ;)But I'm glad you got to experience the thrill of a good old Elektro bloodbath. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
