How was your Day(Z)?

[Killawife 599]

I logged in and had a geared character with ak, suppressed pistol and nice stuff  in cherno that was sick with cholera. I had found some antibiotics before I logged out but they wasnt up-pickable so i had to find some fast. I ran around looking into all the houses but found zilch. So I made the dumb decision to check the police station as theres sometimes medics there. When I exited after not finding anything a newspawns outside. He drops all his stuff and talks and suddenly I'm shot dead by one shot. So he was probably just a lure. I would have died anyways pretty soon so no matter.

 I respawn in chernya polana and run to the industrial towers. As I'm going down froim the towers I meet a guy with a wrench. He attacks me ofcourse even though I have nothing so i try to climb down the ladder. He hits me and I go unconscious. After some time I wake up and am still on the ladder, bleeding. I tell him how stupid and silly he is then climb down. for soem reason I can't walk, my character just lays down, even though I don't have a fracture. A zombie appears and knocks me unconscious again.

 I respawn fifty metres away(I have never gotten that spawn before) and run to my corpse. The murderer is gone, theres no zombie corpse and my body is unlooted. I pick my stuff up and hide. Nobody shows so i move on. Half an hor later I have a backpack, food and a loaded mosin.

[hekp 223]

 

I have this sneaking suspicion this wasn't actually a little kid- any chance it just sounded like a little kid? I've come across this a couple times and I didn't realize it until later on that it's probably just a voice modulator that's changing the pitch of the voice.

I think some people just like to roleplay an annoying hyperactive child. Ive encountered "this" kid a few times aswell. I dont know if the main reason is boredom, quick backstab opportunities or just imitating that youtuber(who?) who did it first.

 

I learned that if you make them think that you are more bored than them, they will leave you alone... Or they will want to team up lol. I usually just show them no interest and treat them like the old zombies. i don't fight them, i just sidestep his punches untill he gets bored and walks away.

 

 

I only had 12 rounds left in the Aug and no idea if I was ever going to see a 5.56 round again but he had earned all 12.

:D

i had a weird day. I played with my public 3pp well-geared guy and spanwed at the atc at NW airfield(great!) and it was littered with stuff. First I thought it was a lootsplosion but it turned out it wasn't. I noticed when i went upstairs and someone shot at me. He then shot at me through the window. When i checked I sawe that there was a mosin guy with clownmask on on top of the fire station. I tried to get out but couldn't so i took the cowards way out and combatlogged. I respawned on another server and didn't get shot at so I checked the houses. As i'm climbing the firestation my toon misses the stair and falls to his death(time for a fix for this soon?).

 I respawn outside cherno adn almsot right away i hear a truck. As I'm crossing the main road I find a crashed truck with two bodies in it. I manage to get them out and get some decent gear. Only a blaze with two bullets but still better than nothing. I am then shot in cherno and have to respawn. I respanw outside cherno again and managed to get through to balota. As i wgo into the ATC I see a rifle barrel sticking through the stairs. I say hello and rush up and meet a guy with an ak. I talk and explain that i onyl have a trumpet and am harmless but hes gonan kill me anyways. Suddenly he stops shooting so i run downstairs to get out but the door wont open! Then I get the message not received stuff. Phew!

 

[thewire 88]

my pub character finally dead...

went into cherno, for some fun. Camping inside a building with all the door close. Then someone snipe a buddy on the 2nd floor and then make into the building like 10 sec later without any sound or opening the door, and I saw him walk pass me so fast...then I shot him point blank at least 8 times on my AK74u, and he shot me 1 time. I am dead...lol 

 

not sure if he is hacking but everything leads him to. ..but no noise on running or opening door or anything ..crazy..my ping was like 23+

...then I shot him point blank at least 8 times on my AK74u, and he shot me 1 time. I am dead...lol 

 

not sure if he is hacking but everything leads him to. ..

 

My worst death was a couple of months ago when my three-month old, massively geared guy put 15 rounds of 5.56 into the head and back of someone coming up the stairs at the VMB jail. None of them did anything to him whatsoever. He turned, and I was insta-dead.

 

It's always tempting to suspect a hack,but desync is the more likely culprit. That or 5.56mm :D

[hekp 223]

Id blame the desync. I once tried to hold up a guy sniping chapaevsk. I shot him unconscious, bandaged him and told him not to draw his weapon once he gains conscious.

Well, that was the first thing he did and altho i was ready for it, i still got shot by his dead body 2-3 seconds later whilst i was already prone. This happened in elevator shaft in the tall apartment building overlooking the beachside, so there was no higher point where i could get shot from. Also, i know it was his ak74su that sprayed me. It sucked 'cause i was giving him a chance, not to mention i reacted in order to save my life but still got screwed.

 

I also had a fail attempt of holding two guys at prison island from 10m whilst they were showing me their backs.one just simply moonwalked-desynced some 20m on my flank and i was basicly fked.

I tried to kite them off so they couldn't use their numerical superiority. I knew i want a tight spot - a choke point if youd like, so i ran towards the hallways that leads to barracks.

They both felt for it and went insta aggro on me thinking im running for my life. With their weapons lowered and sprinting inside the hall, i knew this is my time. I stepped out of the cover some 10m (if not less) infront of them. The fact none of the 30rnds on my mp5 hit any of the guys only lead to an embarrassing death.

 

It was basicly tottaly like this from my POV

 

 

You just dont wanna fk with Marcellus Wallace desync...

 not sure, my ping was good, and I can moved around the whole time without desync. I can hear shot fired and buddy died and then I saw him ran up

[eno 1049]

Had a decent run with ZH last night- starting at Riffy with a rather incomplete character. ZH had never really been around the ship before so he and I met there a couple days ago and spawned in together there last night. He was starving and thirsty and I was dark brown thirsty... 

 

He was in one of the cargo holds and I went over to a ledge to show him where I was... desync or something and I dropped to my death. He started running to Berezino in hopes that he'd find something to eat or drink. Death was another option since I respawned down by Cap Galova and we were a bit impatient by now about running for 20 minutes each what with a Hive wipe coming up in a couple days. The second I spawned in I was being mauled by a zed. Alright fine- #@%@# stupid but fine. I let it kill me and rolled the dice again. 

 

Same general area- but immediately I started getting shot at from someone in a bush. Single shots- probably an SKS. Then a shot gun blast from a second person. I started wildly running around in elaborately random fashion... Ran right up to these guys, around them... past them and back again. One guy calls out, "Hey- back off buddy." 

 

"You shot at me... you going to knock that shit off?" 

 

"Yeah- just move along." 

 

I knew better than to take him for his word but started to run away down the train track while using 3PP to look over my shoulder. I ran for about 5 seconds before I noticed one of them take a knee. Waited one more split second- 

 

Sidestep-

 

Snap!

 

"Oh it's on now!" I turned around and ran around them like a tazmanian devil with a meth addiction. I don't need to make a racket- I just needed to run a crazy figure 8 pattern around the two of them while they shot at me. 

 

Schwab and I had this happen to us once before with a Zed... suffice to say unpredictable things happened and I was hoping for something similar this time around. 

 

Shotgun... single shot... small auto... was just waiting for the clunk of a kitchen sink to land beside me as I tapdanced my way to infamy. Then there was only one guy shooting. 

 

"Hmmm- oh no! What happened!? Shoot your friend did ya?" 

 

I ran around a bit longer and got bored with it so I darted off over a hill and regrouped. Got bored again (since ZH was still up near Berezino) and ran back to see what was up. I took all my stuff off first and headed over to the fountain since that is usually where all the idiots hang out waiting in ambush of total newspawns.

 

Got within sight of the well-

 

Snap! 

 

 

You are dead. 

 

Moving along- I respawn and ZH gets killed by a zed after 20 minutes of trying to poison and drown himself (reminds me of the joke of the guy who tried to commit suicide by hanging himself, shooting himself and poisoning himself... He drinks poison, jumps and shoots but ends up shooting the rope and landing in the extremely cold ocean... throws up the poison and ends up being hauled aboard a french fishing vessel where I think he died of exposure or alcohol poisoning.) 

 

Anyway- ZH and I rendezvous after a respawn in Severograd... pure luck there. We headed back towards the beach while making some stops along the way. Prison? Sure, why not.

 

"Let's just go for it... it'll wipe soon anyway." 

 

We get in there and ZH says he's found a repeater and a Mosin. Good fortune since I'd JUST found some 357 ammo and picked up a rare 7.62x51 box only minutes before. I got up to the office and handed him over the 357.

 

"Where's the Mosin?" 

 

"Right here on the shelf." 

 

"Which shelf..." I looked over my shoulder to see which one he was looking at since I couldn't see one on any shelf. "Weird." I could see it on his screen but not on mine. "Try picking it up." 

 

"It says 'detach sighting scope' (or something to that effect)." 

 

"Glitch I guess." 

 

I was just walking out of the room when someone else came in with a red jacket and a cowboy hat... he had a shotgun drawn. I knew I was dead- ZH might have a chance since he had a loaded repeater... 

 

"Whoa whoa!" I shouted... hoping for some good fortune. I was mashing on my F2 key while I was at it... 

 

"It's okay man," the red guy assured.  "I'm not going to shoot you." Of course I'm WAY beyond taking someone at their word by now.

 

"Well thanks- we're just hanging out before the wipe... exploring a little. We're no threat to you and don't want any trouble."

 

"Nah- I'm looking for a guy with a hockey stick."

 

"He a douche canoe?"

 

"Yeah, he tried to kill me earlier."

 

"We'll keep our eye open- thanks for the tip."

 

 

ZH and I said our goodbyes and headed down the street a bit where we found a well. I said I'd stand watch while he drank and he could return the favour. He took some pulls from the well and I stepped in after. Right in between sips-

 

"Hey, there's a guy! Hey! Are you friendly?"

 

Mumbles I couldn't hear...

 

"Where is he?" 

 

"On the street- just down from the bus." I took a quick cheat peak at his screen to get my bearings. The guy was about 100 feet away so we still had some margin of safety and loads of cover around- assuming the guy wasn't a decoy...

 

"I'll flank- try to see if he's armed."

 

"Do you have any weapons?"  

 

Meanwhile I made my way around a building and saw the guy standing in the middle of the street- he was caught in some glitch where it looks like he's trying to take a weapon of his shoulder so I couldn't tell what he was ACTUALLY doing. I also didn't want to just shoot him outright. I stepped around the corner briefly to get a bead on him and let him know he wasn't the only show in town. 

 

"Whoa whoa! Something something something dark side... something something something complete." I couldn't hear what he was saying... I had that trouble throughout the game- my volumes are all messed up. 

 

He was still in that shoulder glitch... couldn't tell if he was looking at me... couldn't tell what he was saying. When in doubt- bug out! "Let's get out of here-" I said over my shoulder. Both of us tactically advanced to the rear (ran like little bitches) to a building a couple streets down taking an evasive route to avoid being followed. Once we were satisfied we weren't being followed, ZH and I had a quick chat about what just happened to figure out if we were going to go back and make contact again. 

 

"He seemed okay- he didn't shoot at me." ZH still sees the best in people and to a degree I do too... but I'm really careful about how long I keep my eye on someone. We agreed to make our way back but before we got far we could hear voices. ZH was a bit further down the street than I was and he could hear at least 2 people talking. "There's 3! I can see 3 guys!" 

 

"Can they see you?"

 

"No-"

 

"I'm moving over to the street." 

 

ZH had moved a lot more than I thought- and as I came around the corner I could see at least 1 guy... then 2. Then a 3rd... but THAT guy was ZH. We'd miscommunicated and ZH initiated before I was in place. 

 

"Hey- hey you guys. I don't want to shoot but I will- what are you doing here?" I couldn't hear the replies from where I was. I moved slowly up the side of the road with buildings behind me and with the weapon drawn. When I had a good picture, I stopped. I saw 2 guys looking at ZH but couldn't see the third. They were keeping their weapons down- one even put one on his shoulder. Where is this third guy? Is this an elaborate ruse? (Yes, love the word!)

 

"My friend is with me, and he has his gun pointed at you guys so don't do anything funny... we're just protecting ourselves." 

 

"Hey!" said someone from further away. "I'm here... I'm not a threat. I'm with those guys. I'm coming in and I'm putting my weapon away. I'll even put it on the ground." The guy came up from down the street... came up towards me with his weapon shouldered, then put it on the ground at my feet.

 

There was a smashload of chatter at this point as these guys were really quite accommodating and polite. They explained they were just on their way through to head over to the NEAF. One of the guys was the cowboy in red- 

 

"Oh yeah- this guy gave us a pass at the prison just now so if you're with him that puts me at ease." I told ZH to shoulder his weapon and I did the same. One of the guys thought he recognized my voice from something that involved some pretty weird stuff that I'm certain I'd have remembered if I'd been associated with it- but then he got impatient with us standing around chatting and he left. ZH, cowboy, his friend and I then just headed over to NEAF where there was basically nothing... then headed up towards Krasnostov when the server reset. 

 

 

Overall- a great experience this time around! And if the red cowboy and his buddy ever read this drop me a line! Let's do that again!

I love your stories.. my sweet, sweet Eno.  :)

[Killawife 599]

Yesterday i played with a bunch fo characters due to the wipe coming today. Mostly I spent my time looking at people fighting it out in Berez but I also went to the NW airfield armed with only an improvised bow. I didn't meet a single person but someone had kindly left me a fully kitted M4 and six 60 round mags at the ATC. The mags were all empty but I already had some 5.56 so it was gold. I also went to the prison island on public but the loot was kinda dissapointing. Some mp5 mags but not one single gun. Someone fired at me but I couldn't find him afterwards. It was weird. Having only a trumpet I would probably have ben killed.

[Killawife 599]

Arrgh! Three characters dead! Two to complete bullshit and one in a regular firefight. The first, pretty well-geared guy on a roof in berezino, sniped ten seconds after log-in.  I have no idea from where. Second guy, running through upper berezino with a shotty in my hands, I see two guys, one starts shooting into the grocery store while standing five metres away from me. The other one doesnt even have a gun. Wtf? Either there was the mother of all lags or someone else shot me.

 Third guy was on prison island. i drove there in a v3s but once I got there the server crashe dand didnt restart so i went there yesterday. I already had an m4 so I was mostly lookign for ammo and a vest. As I enter a room a guy sits there, having probably just logge din. He starts shooting with an sks but I manage to rasie my m4 and spray him dead. I get hit badly and have to bandage, use morphine and drop a bunch of ruined stuff. While I'm doing it the door opens so I ready myself. A guy runs in and then starts spraying with a rak, i empty my mag into him and we both drop. I die so I don't know if he survived, probably not.  This death was fun at least.

 Only five more geared characters to go before wipe, hehe.

[Killawife 599]

Only one dead today. Shot dead by some wannabe-kos:ing bastard sniper asshole after stepping out of a truck in Myshkino mil base.

 

 Got into a firefight in cherno with another character and killed one guy. After sitting in a room waiting for ten minutes I noticed the server had crashed :/

[Killawife 599]

Quite eventful day today. I logged in in Cherno as an almost newspawn and went to the bluetop building looking for a gun. As Im climbing the ladder I hear shooting above so i approach carefully. At the secondmost top floor a guy sits reloading a mosin so i rush up and punch him. He drops. I check him and hes alive so I steal his mosin and backpack and ammo and leave him. I climb down and rush away. As I check the gear it turns out that the mosin didnt stick so im stuck with a silenced makarov :/  Still, food, water and ammo aint so bad. I stick around the town and after a while I hear mosin shooting and I see that the guy is still on the server. Good for him. I go to elektro and log out.

 

I log in with another character on prison island. Nobody is there but some nice loot is. I swim to the shore and go to Kamarovo. Since my boots broke going ashore I run to the policestdation. Having just found a new pair a guy rushes in. hes fully geared with a shotgun in his hands so i mow him down. I check his body and hes dead. As I begin to loot him two more guys enter, i shoot one more and retreat under fire. The guys talk to me spouting the normal bullshit fo "you didnt need to shoot" " Come down, we wont shoot" etc. This bores me as I know from experience that if I hadnt shot them they would have killed me, which I tell them. And waddyaknow, even as they are trying to talk me into giving up and get fair treatment, one of their guys snipes at me. I get a good position and wait but they do not come so after five minutes or so I log out.

 

I log in with my public character and hes also in cherno. Theres someone shootign with an ak so I set upon finding him. I quickly find him as hes shooting a newspawn trying to knock him out. I take some potshots but they dont seem to hit, strangely enough. I follow him and he killes three more newspawns attacking him. I hear him go into a house and seeing a corpse in teh doorway I naturally assumes its the house he entered. I toss a flashbang in and enters but its empty. Turns out hes in the house next door. I wait for him to exit but after ten minutes I give up and log out.

[yusi 6]

My lone survivor character was awesomely geared. I went to the military base north of Cherno to see if I could find ammo for my longhorn, as I was running low on food and had 3 bullets left or something. Enter the base, decide to climb up on the pipes walkway thing(?) to scout for infected / players. I forgot I had my autorun on when I climbed the ladder, took a two meter fall and died. Fml. :3 I'll miss all that gear </3

[PlasticAssasin8 (DayZ) 78]

I had my fella all geared.

I went on a run nth of Novo around the edge of the map towards Krasno, just exploring. Dropped into the base up there for a look see , the place was full of Zombies, they were all over the place. Went on to the school camp sth west of Nago. I had enough gear to last me for ages, so i went back to my stash and sorted a kit to head down the coast from Novo to have a look at the Prison island.

Food, Mosin with LRS, longhorn and ammo and of i went.

 

I was in Khelm and wandering looking in buildings etc, not picking anything up at all,all the time listening for sounds of others. There as only 5 on the whole map at the time but then BRRRRRT, i got gunned down by a KOS mongrel, DEAD!!!!! came from nowhere, no sounds no nothing till i saw him pop out from around the corner inside a house. I have to admire the skills of some people to be able to creep up like that, but their morals suck.

 

I respawned, i was hoping for the normal Berezino type spawn and i could go find him and try to have a good ole fist fight till i was shot dead. Instead i came back to life at Cherno. It was a high pop ( around 45 on ) server so i was expecting to get shot as i went from house to house looking for food but i saw nobody. Decided to run about herding up Z.s into the fire stationg and practice getting thenm in houses and closing the doors behind me :thumbsup: . I would have been happy to see someone, im really just biding time till the new release comes out.

 

Went through Balota- no body picked up a pack and a few small items and went onto the dock near the prison, swam out there and was able to load up with two guns and heaps of food, there was a lot of stuff out there. I can see whay they want to make sure loot spawns all over the map and not in preset places. Once bases come out and if this place got fortified ( not that it needs it ) no body would ever be able to get there and the people that have it have all they ever need to live there forever.

 

I swam back and of course was totally soaked. At least its better than my feet gettin wet and being totally soaked, that's annoying big time.

I went to Kamenka and the petrol station further down then up to the Base, saw a few peeps in there so i skirted around the inside of it and went to Pav then Zeleno.

Headed to the base in the Nth west and on out west of Lopatino. Where i am now sitting ready for the next part of my trip. :D

[cash81 506]

After getting robbed and killed the other night at NEAF (didnt have anything good so when i heard them say stop i figured why not see where this goes lol) i spawned at prigorodki. Headed north and got to mogilevka. Looted a bit in the dark and heard someone running. Went in to a house since i had no gun and waited. Heard him aggro a zed so i went outside to seenwhats up. I open the door and the zed runs in, i drop it with brass knuckles and hear "hey buddy" as i type "its down" i hear a shot go off. Its a flare gun. I run back in to the house and see someone, i take a swing then bolt by him and out the back door. I hear "sorry man stop i didnt..." then out of earshot. I run out to a farm and find new shoes to replace my ruined boots. I head back to town and find some food. As i leave i hear "hi again" so i pull evasive moved thinking there will be a shot. He says "dont worry we are friendly. Can you hear me?" Now i figure what the hell im in thesame boat as last time, crap gear barely any food and a wipe coming why not stop and see where this goes.

He asks if im the same dude they shot with the flare by accident i said yeah its okay and sorry for takin a swing at one of them. I ask if they need food and they said no they are good. They said they had no guns and arent bandits. They even mention they saw some bolts for my xbow a few houses down. They say they are heading north and they wish me luck. I told them watch out for NEAF since thereare bandits there. They thanked me and we parted ways. I caught one name, Jared. Nice to run in to you guys if you ever end up reading this :)

[Mookie (original) 799]

Haven't been on for a few days, so a little concerned about my encampment (which currently contains lots of nice stuff). My three mil tents still there. Must have picked quite a good spot (for once). But my truck server has simply disappeared....

 

So did a pretty long run to the NW bus garage and practised sniping Zs. Also poked around at the Lopatino and Vybor crash sites. The helis are now waaay off where they're supposed to be, so I tried my luck at where the original spawnpoints were. Either I was looking in the wrong place or someone had got there first.

 

Then popped into Vybor mil base, to be greeted by an immense lootgasm - so bad that it crashed the game a couple of times. Loads of guns, but no mags. Guy started trying to shoot me through the barracks windows. No response to my saying 'it doesn't have to be this way!', so moved into the bathroom and waited him out. Sure enough, in he comes and I blapped him.

 

Did manage to find a green tie-able bandana, and a camo head bandana, so fashion sense is flying high right now.

[eno 1049]

Logged in with .57 and a pleasant surprise so far. Spawned in near Chez Eno and noticed quite a few changes... there's a fire station near the plant facility to the north... and some different buildings in different spots. A bit more elaborate tracks go by... just a slightly different feel to it. Also a house across the street from Chez Eno now. 

 

Didn't get a lot of chance to try things out. Noticed some subtle changes that I'm sure you'll see immediately. 

 

Grew some pumpkins (that now take up 6 spots instead of 4)... things seem pretty good. 

[Killawife 599]

I found nice things in a guardhouse. Then I ate some blue berries and died. I left all my gear in a house in kabaninho. 

People seem to enjoy crashing their trucks, I found two crashed ones with no gas in them, also found a blackskull balaclava in a regular house. 

 

At first I thought things worked much better in 0.57, picking things up for example and vaulting over fences. Then it went back to normal.

[schwaBAM 200]

Had a short session on Wednesday night with ColdAtrophy.  We decided to hold hands and gear up our 3pp characters.  We met up and found that there was an over abundance of pretty much anything we wanted in said server.  I had a winchester with a hunting scope and he had an ak74 with a suppressor.  We traded to suit our liking's and were able to find more than enough ammo, canned food, and clothing.  We were even able to get the color of the clothing we wanted to match our desired look of our characters all within an hour to an hour and a half of play.

 

I found that I could not get my character past the dark green stage of energized at first.  The only way I could get past this was to "eat" (not "eat all") of an item, and then it would get to the bright green energized state.  I was also getting cold even with my clothing in worn or pristine condition.  So we built a fire before logging out.

 

Not very exciting, but checking out some of the new stuff was kind of neat.

[Killawife 599]

I stole some guys truck at Stary sobor while they were looting the tents. Then I drove like a madman and crashed it so the fuel only lasted to Veresnik mil base where it ran out just at the base. I had to tail it out quick.

[Mookie (original) 799]

 

At first I thought things worked much better in 0.57, picking things up for example and vaulting over fences. Then it went back to normal.

 

Definitely this. Or if anything worse. I've not had a good day in 0.57.

 

The inventory system seems a real mess now. For example, if I select items by inventory numbers, they disappear from the number slot, don't go back when I put them away, and I just have to reassign them every time (which is a bit of a chore).

 

Selecting things from inventory numbers in the first place, which seemed smoother when 0.57 was first released, now seems much slower - a good 5 seconds or so.

 

Things have always vanished now and then when I put them on the ground, but it now seems worse than ever. Opening tins will often just see them disappear.

 

Many servers, not just Vilayer ones, seem to have become entirely loot-free. Not a sausage. And I'm in the far north west, not on the coast, looking in unfamiliar places.

 

Don't try repairing anything back to pristine status - like it was two or three patches ago, you can only get to worn (which is fair enough).

 

Firearms do not seem to degrade (or if so, at a much slower rate. Just as well really, because I've only seen a single repair kit).

 

However, the silver lining is that on one of the only servers I've found today that did have any loot, I finally found a hunting scope for my Winchester, which is a beast of a gun. :D

Edited June 14, 2015 by Mookie

[Killawife 599]

I had a weird and deadly thing happen to me yesterday that i've never had before. I spawned outside Berezino and was lucky enough to find an improvised backpack with some stuff in it that someone had left behind. In it was a Cr75 with a full clip so i felt big and strong. As I entered the police station a numb guy attacks me with an axe so i do some evasive manuevers and stand ready with my gun as he bursts through a door, I press the trigger and ecpect his head to burst open like a melon, instead .....nothing. Absolutely nothing happens, no clicking or anything. i curse loudly and run away. As I'm running with numb axeman behind me, I take out the clip, empty it, reload and ready the gun. I give it another go...nothing. I continue on my run and after not being able to convine numb axeguy to give up the chase i simply jump in to the water so he cant get to me. As i get to shore i again empty the gun checking all parts which are pristine. I chamber the gun with one bullet but it still wont fire so I toss it. Numb axeguy shows up again so i run towards some gunfire I hear, hoping they will kill him. i managed to elude him and find a hatchet. Soon he appears and I whack him for a bit til hes bleeding and chase him around laughing insanely. After a while I grow bored so I leave him to bleed and go about my business. I find another gun but cant pick it up. As I check my inventory I notice that the damn CR75 is still there, even though I tossed it on the beach. As I ponder my misfortunes mute axeguy appears and shoots me dead with a pistol.

Loved that story.

 

I wouldn't put it beyond the Gods of DayZ that the CR75 duped itself when you tossed it, he picked up the one that hit the ground, and it worked.... At least you were relatively fresh and didn't have much to lose.

ColdAtrophy and I grouped up the other night and joined a high pop server looking for trouble.  We logged in up north near Novo and went scouting for players.  Not 10 minutes into our search, we spotted a guy duck into a 2 story building.  I asked ColdAtrophy to get eyes on the front as I went up the hill to scope out the back of the house.  Just then, the guy comes out the side entrance and we decide to capture him.  I run up shouting orders as the guy slowwwwly complies.  ColdAtrophy binds him with rope as I tell him to walk back into the house as ColdAtrophy locked the doors behind us (which seemed like it took forever) .  I get him upstairs and check his gear, which he had little of.. he had a winchester with no ammo and apparently a shotgun that he disclosed to me but I couldn't see it.. but I did see the shotgun shells.  

 

Just as I tell him we are going to let him go, the server restarts.  DOH

 

Does anyone know if it still kills you if you are logged out while bound? I hope he survived..
