Just passing through

[Zakificus 10]

Kinda funny anecdote about the other day I thought I'd share.

I was on a moderately populated server yesterday. I decided to hit Stary and look for anything good in the tents. Didn't find anything worth picking up besides a few bandages to replenish my supplies.

I have pretty much everything I need except for a toolbox, nvg, and ghillie in this lifetime, so I decided to check the houses in the area for the suit. So I made it through all of those with no luck and no aggro. Last stop was to be the convenience store before heading out into the wilderness again.

Just as I round the corner of the church near the store, I walk straight into the LOS of a zed. Crouch running past him, I try to be quick but quiet, and still get 3 or 4 more on me. At this point I'm almost to the store so I figure I can lose them inside while I check for loot. I run in the back door take a quick look, and just as I'm about to head into the front of the store and I see a survivor turning with his lee enfield now facing into the back room.

At this point it's worth mentioning I have my character set to use a zombie skin. So when this guy turned to the back room he essentially saw a zombie, with all kinds of equipment, crouch running down the hallway.

As soon as I saw him, turned my mic on, and said "Nope-nope-nope-nope, see ya" as I waddled past him and crouch ran out the door at the other end of the back hall.

I had a M14, and could easily have circled around and waited for him, but he clearly had an opportunity to shoot me at least twice between my seeing him and then still slowly making my way out the back. He didn't pull the trigger, either out of confusion or niceness, either way, we both get to live another day.
