MissBehave 37 Posted June 27, 2012 i found my first vehicle a couple of days ago and i am almost regretting it now. the constant fear that it might have been stolen while logged off is just absurd :Dso yeah' date=' very nice read and i´m looking forward to part two[/quote']Thanks! So here is a funny story that happened last night. Vagabond goes afk and I am staring at him and hear this rumbling sound. I freaked out, thinking a car was coming towards our secret camp. After much girlie OMG VAGABOND COME BACK comments on voice chat, we go off trying to find the car.After about 15 minutes of searching I realize the sound isn't a car. It's the rapid hearbeat sound I get because I was staring at Vagabond and he has recently gained a Bandit tag. My pickup on his low humanity sounded just like the distant rumble of a car engine. DOH! So embarassed.:P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xcess (DayZ) 0 Posted June 27, 2012 My luck ran out :(Yesterday I had a lucky streak I could hardly believe, I knew it couldn't last long. I was in an apartment block in one of the northern towns, just a little ways off the coast, when I heard the most magical sound: the beep of a car's horn.Excitement got the better of me and I abandoned all discretion and started sprinting around town like a mad man trying to find the source, gaining the attention of every zed in town. I couldn't believe my luck when I stumbled aross the beautiful red machine. It was parked by a store, the owner nowhere to be seen, just waiting to save me from the horde. I jumped in and sped away, feeling a little guilty but grinning from ear to ear anyway.It was low on gas though so I pulled into a nearby construction site, hoping to find a jerry can and a fuel source. I thought my luck had run out when I couldn't find the can, but knowing they turned up in places like these, I decided to hold out. I don't know how llong I was there, but the zomibies kept on coming. At one point I could hear the gunshots of at least two people iin the distance, and I held my ground, the paranoia growing every second, knowing they would come and steal my baby.But they never did, and the gods of the spawns rewarded my efforts. I found a Jerry can, filled up, and was on my way.A short way down the road I saw a shape in the fields, dropping to the ground. I stopped the car, jumped out and dropped to the ground myself, I knew that shape; it wanted my new toy. Our shots rang out at the same time but it was mine that hit home. Among the toys of this dead bandit was an m14, the first I'd seen. It just kept getting better.My luck just kept on flowing. I came across the first crashed helicopter I'd seen, two bizon's an AK and a FAL, more new toys. I even managed to drive through both Electro and Cherno unharmed, the hails of bullets just whistling past. Not wanting to test my luck any further I made camp and hid my car away for the night.When I came back on the next day however, my car was still there, but all II had stored inside it was gone, I could feel my luck coming to an end.I didn't do much more than drive around, looking for fuel and seeing the sites, until I cam across an abandoned ATV, with a map tucked away inside. I thought perhaps my luck was turniing around when, not even 100 meters away I found a Toyota sitting in the trees. I had a cursory look around, expecting the owners to be away, and seeing nothing, decided to check it out.My fun ended there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
