There's Still Hope!

[The Road Warrior (DayZ) 38]

Howdy guys,

So I figured I'd share my heart-warming tale.
After a long night of being killed by bugs, bandits and reset by server crashes, something magical happened.

Running along the railway track just behind the train station at Svetlojarsk I encounter a player.
I'm barely kitted as I've been painfuly struggling all night long, so I drop my axe and proclaim "I'm not looking for trouble, I'm friendly!".
But this cretian wasn't interested he shouted "Lay down and you might live!" unarmed and faithless from my long night I surrender.
As I lay there, I second guess myself, why did I trust him?, this is the end of the world there aren't good people anymore.
I make a second plea "Just let me go, you can take my rifle." but "Shut up!" was barked back at me as I laid with my face in the dirt.
I hear the sound of a bolt being drawn, I realize this is it, I lay in waiting, awaiting the crack of the rifle as my life vanishes into nothing.
I turn to my attacker, suddenly there it is, I hear the crack, I expect myself to fade into darkness..

But wait... I see his rifle fall, his backpack drop and his body fall down into a bloodied heap.
I jump to my feet in shock, throwing my hands up into the air in both awe and praise.
Like an angel from the heavens parting from the clouds, my savoir appears from the bushes.
His majestic voice shouts "Take his gear and get the fuck out of here, more are coming!"
In a frenzied panic I grab my would-be killers equipment and look up to aid my savior but he was gone.

I know you're out there somewhere you sexy son of a bitch, and I can not thank you enough!

One of these stories is more rewarding (for both you and your savior) then 200 stories of "I saw a guy, shot a guy" or "Look a bambi, lets handcuff him and kill him, such joy" 

THAT is why you should never step to the dark side ;)

Wish we had more of these "sexy saviours" type of players, but i suppose for stories like this we also need some 12 yo cod kids, so beanz for everyone

Ahhh this is awesome dude. I once encountered a very similar situation. I was wealthy in Novomitrovsk, and I heard chatter down in the street. I peeked out the window from the apartment I was in, and saw a player being robbed at gun point by two bandits.

 

I quickly rushed down the stairs, and stealthily crept behind a fence into position. I did not shoot the robbers straight away, I was listening to what they were saying. Right as one of them raised his weapon into sights, I flew around the corner like rambo spraying my Makarov. Saved the innocent, killed the guilty. He thanked me, and I moved on.

Like Rambo coming out of nowhere... I like it. I aspire to be that guy.

Since we're sharing stories, I saved a dude from 2 Russians in Berenzino once. He was hiding/holding out in a room at the 2nd floor of a building. I quickly figured out what was going on, killed 1 guy who was guarding outside, while his friend was going up the stairs. Went around the block to the other side, sneaked in the back and killed the 2nd guy. The guy at the top didn't wanna come out at first, but I gained his trust and escorted him out of the city.Gave him a saline bag and sent him on his way. 

Come to think of it, this experience might be the reason why I stuck with hardcore servers only. Makes shit much more real
