spartacusrex 88 Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) So I've had this character for the past 7 months, I had over 300 hours on him: Given the impending wipe, I decide to run the coast on a full pop server looking to give the first person I saw all my gear. Didn't see a soul until I reached Berezino. When I did, I saw a group of four guys, one with his gun out. I said "Hey guys how's it going?" All but one replied "Hey there", the one with the gun took cover, then came out shooting, I shot back but: Then I hear over the mic, "Hey, you mind if I take his stuff?" I truly hope he enjoyed what he found:Fully kitted (legit) M4 with 3 60 round magsUnicorn Mosin w/ Bipod, LRS, Comp and a PU scopeFully kitted FNX w/ MagsTentEngraved 1911Sawed OffPress VestAmmo box w/ a stack of every ammo in gameFull Med Kit (Morphine, Epi, etc..)etc... Of course if I weren't suicidal I could have killed them all, but hey... I'd rather die and have some people enjoy my loot than let all my work be completely wiped away by a patch. Either way, so long old friend. I now welcome the coming wipe! Edited September 6, 2014 by Spartacus Rex 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spartacusrex 88 Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) I know this game is about survival but damn it must be boring running around inland doing nothing for 7 months What makes you think that is what I did? I spent most of my time running between Military Bases, Airfield and Major Cities, also helping my clan. That character was shot at least a dozen times, yet still survived. Its not hard to not die in this game. Edited September 6, 2014 by Spartacus Rex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That character was shot at least a dozen times, yet still survived.I just don't think it seems like fun, since there's nothing to do but loot. But that's just my opinion.. A much harder, and much more entertaining thing to do is just triyng to survive in the northeast, there you can interact with people and do the exact same things you've done for 7 months, but less running.

I haven't needed loot, besides food, for months. Again that's NOT what I did. You seem to have a straw man problem sir. I spent plenty of time in the NE, all I did was seek out player interaction and play the hero. Just because I didn't die or play Berezino Deathmatch like some CoD loser doesn't mean I was bored or running around inland.

kakysas666 191 Posted September 6, 2014 so you kept your character idle for 7 months? Well, some people buy DayZ to play, some to collect stuff and never use it... Been there, done that... But after 300 hours it should get really boring.... But since you played it 1 hour a week at most, I can understand it... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Aquatic Land Walrus 565 Posted September 6, 2014 Funny thing. I got almost all of that in about 3 hours of play upon a respawn in a 35/40 pop server. Without killing anyone, or ever being shot at. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But after 300 hours it should get really boring.... But since you played it 1 hour a week at most, I can understand it... Oh look, another person with reading comprehension problems. I was never idle, I play every day, none of my gear went without use. You're obviously bad at math since its impossible to put in over 300 hours playing 1 hour a week for 7 months. Funny thing. I got almost all of that in about 3 hours of play upon a respawn in a 35/40 pop server. Without killing anyone, or ever being shot at. Really? A tent, bipod mosin, fully kitted M4, FNX w/ mags and a press vest in 3 hours? I doubt it. I've also never killed anyone who didn't shoot first.

Grimey Rick 3417 Posted September 6, 2014 Meh, it's possible. I survived from mid-January to July 28th on the same character, logging over 1,000 hours into it. I only played on 30+/40 servers, ran mostly from Balota to Vybor over and over hitting up the airfields and military bases looking for tussles. I was shot a lot, broke a lot of limbs, and ended up finally dying when I took a trip to Novodmitrovsk; the stairs to the tower were my ultimate undoing. Most people in this game fucking suck, so when you have your wits about you, aren't a bad shot and understand basic tactical gameplay, it's pretty easy to survive. The main thing that led to my survival was avoiding groups of more than four people. Even five terribads can spell death if you're not 100% on your game. Good job OP. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I played the shit out of first CoD and enjoy pvp at Berenzino cause thats where you are most likely to find pvp.I dont see how those things makes me a loser.

If you're one of those "that's the only way to play DayZ" types then of course you don't. If not, then you need not take offense. Ok so you ran inland, not needing any loot, looking for interactions for 7 months...Now that's boring, especially if you play every day When did I ever say I spent my entire time inland for 7 months? You really have either a straw man problem or reading comprehension issues. Edited September 6, 2014 by Spartacus Rex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris? have you sufficiently stroked your ego enough OP? if not, let me know, i'll send you PMs of worship and praise for a can of bean cans each If you think that was the purpose of my thread, you really must have an inferiority complex. This was simply a memorial to my longest lasting character. That said, I'd love some worship and praise... so long as its not baseless.

hells high 676 Posted September 6, 2014 My friends and I committed 3 way suicide. We stood in a triangle and everyone pointed their weapon at the guy on the right's head. On the count of 3 everyone pulled the trigger. It worked. We laughed our asses off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spartacusrex 88 Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) could you regale me with how you would've masterfully taken out those 4 plebs you bestowed your inspiring mercy upon? Standing in the middle of the street? I would have likely started with the gunman, I could have dropped two with headshots and sprayed the third while they were talking before they even moved, then played the long game with the survivor as he tried to escape BZ or loot the gun of his friend. Or I could have went inside the bar to the south of them and picked them off with my Mosin. If it were 4 guys with guns in CQB, I doubt I would have have such an upper hand. I've killed 3 dupers before, but the 3rd nearly got me. 3 Unarmed guys and 1 gun, how does that require anyone playing "masterfully"? That said, I play the friendly hero. Its not mercy to not kill on sight. Edited September 6, 2014 by Spartacus Rex 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
