Day Z Urban Legends

[silenced (DayZ) 5]

Some say Mountain Dew is cursed. I think it's true. Last time I picked up a can of Dew I was dead a few minutes later.

[bournesto33 21]

Mountain dew is cursed, i have seen this FIRST HAND....

So i stopped playing on public servers, and found this SUPER great hive...So I am in Starry making my way to the airfield when all of a sudden I see a bright green can. Could it be? Could this be the dew everyone speaks of? Right away I get on the side chat and let all fellow players know what I have found, and all tell me to drop it and run. To prove this was just a urban legend, I drank it and told everyone on the server lets see how long it takes to die. Oddly, It I stayed alive for about a hour and logged off to do some homework...

I try to get on the next day, the sever was gone from, and it hasnt come back yet....

DEW IS CURSED, DONT DRINK THE DEW

on a serious note it came back up for a day and the next day it was gone again...so seriously guys the dew is cursed

[KennyNZ 121]

on a serious note...

Shit sounded pretty serious already! lol

[tyronk2@hotmail.com 36]

I heard that sometimes....You can find....NICE PEOPLE o.O

That sir is a myth, please dont spread rumors around these forums !

[bournesto33 21]

im nice, but I stay away from people for the most part. If I see a guy running with a gun, i usually stay low till I see him move on...if I see a person get attacked by zeds Ill run it to help or help from a distance (smoke etc...)

The other night I was stalked by a rabbit. Whenever I turned around, there he was, watching me. It's not the first time this has happened and I'm pretty sure this isn't your average bunny. Has anyone else seen this mystical beast?

The no-named yeti's that attempt to drain your car batteries.

So apparently there are spaniards on top of Green Mountain making salsa. No joke, i'll have pics tomorrow.

I havent experienced that yet but the other night i was playing near Cherno when i saw a bunny, sitting upright, on the road. I approached and an option to Give Food came up. I admit i was playing a modded version but it did seem odd. I gave food but the bunny didnt appear too pleased with a tin of beans.

Perhaps you can tame these beasts and have them as followers - a killer rabbit would come in use. I have seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail!

People say Mountain Dew is cursed, and I kinda believe them.

Yesterday I was looting the deerstands in Balota at night. Since it was dark out, I figured I wouldn't have to worry about players or zombies too much. I was just about done there, when someone threw a flare into the middle of the military camp.

I went prone, crawled to a tent, and used direct chat to warn the guy that he shouldn't show himself or I'll shoot him. (Had a AK-74 with decent ammo). I wait it out for about 5 minutes, crawl out of there, and loop around to check the hill leading to the hangers. Sure enough, the idiot throws another flare when he's right next to me, and I fill him full of bullets.

He had a Enfield, flares, food, and...... an un-opened Mountain Dew. No wonder he died, he was cursed.

Just working on my "Fallujah Airfield" Story,..... 3 hours, 21 kills and a whole load of madness

C'mon Derpy, the suspense is killing me!!

[Lord Sauron 18]

I love these stories. Just so entertaining to read.

Keep on dying so we can read what happens!

[Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521]

C'mon Derpy, the suspense is killing me!!

I know i know... ok i have a spare 20 minutes before i pass out (4am) so i shall start it here.

Official DayZ Brony Meetup 4.0

Location: Airfield, Fallujah.

I am alone.... or so i think, i sit here in my small sandbagged nest looking toward the runway, downed choppers around me and gunfire off into the distance. I have to hold this position till everyone gets here... and it's going to be a while before they do. Only things i can rely on are my AS50 and AK, the world vs me.....

Suddenly a shot rings out from the barracks, then another and another, but not from the same weapon, cautiously i switch to my Bino's for a closer look, 2 pretty well armed guys are running from one barracks to another pulling in every undead sucker from here to Bahgdad, i need to get rid of them incase one of us runs into them... somehow i don't think "friendly" will cut it.

I draw my AS50 from my side and scope in... both in one corridor, easy picking by any means, Range easily about 400m, i take aim and fire. Blood spurts and the body drops like a lump of concrete, i think to myself i will have a waiting game with his buddy, will he camp out and wait before moving or will he simply ALT F4 but before i could decide on my actions he steps out, safe to say that was 2 notches on my barrel.

The next six, well this was good i will admit, I get a hail over Teamspeak that one of us was gunned down by a chopper heading my way and as the comms die i hear it, brushing in from the North the gunner was launching hot lead in all directions, i keep low... i wait...

A few passes overhead i realise he is scouting... but then he begins to hover, not even 300m in front of me, and he just holds it there, begging to be shot and i obliged... another .50cal sound rang around the airfield and the chopper slowly begins to fall from the sky.... The explosion was horrific, a monsterous clap as it hit the ground, 6 names appear on the left of my screen, 6 members of a clan, i knew then i was truly in the shit then.

Then it came across the side chat.... Order to Kill Derpy_Hooves... Sniping at the airfield.

Things stayed quiet for a good while... an hour and a half had passed by now and i had 8 kills, RazorPT was on the outskirts of the airfield but i had no idea, due to the side channel i could barely hear my Teamspeak and had no idea of his movements toward my position, until it was too late... i spy him about 500m away checking out a hangar, his nametag never appeared so i took no risk... i bide my time tll i guess his running pattern... One Shot and he drops... "RazorPT was killed". Oops was a major understatement... 9 kills though 1 was friendly.

About another half hour to 45 minutes pass and again over the sidechat this clan called out for my blood and not more than 2 minutes later i hear a shitstorm approaching, another chopper, another 6 kills i though yeeehaw!! Knowing damn well i had very little time till i was surrounded i proceeded to fire at the chopper regardless of caution, shot after shot bounced off the cabin or barely scraped by... the gunner at this point affixed to my position began bursting shots at me... closer and closer then rang but lady luck was with me, one shot left in my mag and the chopper was moving pretty quick around me, pure pot luck brought that chopper down... another 6, the same DAMN CLAN!!

i reload my last mag into my rifle... another player to the west now running directly at me... booom!!! number 16, bullets ricochet off the sand bags behind me almost a second later, im calling to the others to hurry but no one is near or armed well enough to help me, this was truley the last man standing.

Again the bullets barely miss me by much but i clocked him, somehow he missed me static twice with a DMR, no idea how be he had. My first shot is way over his head.. i hadn't changed my range from 500m yet and he was about 300m at most away, he cracked another shot but luckily i was out the way and proceeded to leave the safety of my nest to get him.

I sneak out side and creep behind the giant barricades giving me the upper hand, i see him scouting my old haunt but he doesn't see me, safe to say kill 17 could have been harder!

18, 19 and 20 however were a damn sight harder to kill. I must have been back in my nest for no more than 10 minutes when this Pickup with mounted gun came smashing through the fencing by the barracks aiming right for me, .50cal blazing away i had to get out of there, my AS50 was as good as nothing at the moment so i switched to my AK-M hoping they jump out the vehicle.... 2 did and one stayed on the gun, by this point though they hadn't noticed me running behind the ATC, i wait for the two on foot to sneak up toward where i was, i can see the gunner from where i was just peering at my last spot... this is do or die, i had to act or i was a dead man so taking my chances i run out hoping the gunner doesn't catch me out the corner of his eye, thankfully he didn't so flanking and killing him wasn't hard, but now his friends knew where i was, open and exposed with no chance of help coming any time soon,

the next 10 minutes ended up being one of the best stands of i've ever been in, shot for shot we just had a go at each other, i got hit but not too bad, nothing i couldn't bandage up. i was almost out of ideas when i remembered a lone frag in my inventory. I hate frags but this seemed the kind of time where it would work and i would win and regardless of it not working i was going to die anyway... so up and over the pickup it went.

Somehow i killed on and i hear bones breaking.. without hesitation i run to them and see one player dead and the other KO'd... easy picking in my book, 20 kills but now on 5K blood, running out of ammo and running out of ideas.

Kill 21 was completely by accident, i took the pickup and arranged to pick up the other Bronies and try get to some sort of safe haven (yeah i was tripping i know) Great idea i thought so pedal to the metal i get the hell outa there. i must have been driving for about 2 minutes when this survivor just runs from behind a building right in front of me. Up and over the windscreen he went and landed with a crunch, Poor sod never stood a chance!

Seconds later i met my maker when a .50cal round penetrated my skull leaving a brain smoothie everywhere!! DAMMIT!

Couldn't complain though, 21 kills... pure chaos and well never actually met up with the others in the end... we all kept getting lost!

[DemonGroover 8836]

Holy Shit, sounds like a movie script!!!

That Fallujah airfield is Deathmatch City.

[Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521]

Damn right it is... in that time alone i think i smoked about 20 ciggarettes, downed 6 cups of coffee and went through 3 pairs of underwear!

First day playing panthera map..

spawn in.. see a town with some of those apartment buildings.. First room I get into I find a DEW.. thinking o great what a find.. 2nd room in the same apartment I find a Ghillie..woohoo.. This DEW is a lucky one.. Keep searching the building by the time I get to the other side of the town, I have a full set of gear. Pistol.. rifle,, map matchs.. etc.. you name it, I had it.. All withing 20 mins of starting map for first time.

As I am checking the map out to see where I am and where I want to go.. I hear something in the distance coming towards me..

I go to the door and see a motor cycle coming right at me. Long story short. I am enjoying a nice bike ride through mountains headed towards an Airbase I saw on the map.

I get near the base. hide the bike and start circling the base to check it out. I see no zeds nothing is there .. spent about 5 mins scoping the hills for snipers.. Felt pretty good to go into the base, besides I had a lucky DEW on me today.. things were good.

I sneak into the base and head for the tower. As I get up to the top I see a DMR sitting right there on the floor.

I bend down to pick it up.. BAM You are dead screen.

Stupid ass DEW.. I knew I should have just left it alone..

[Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521]

Never ever trust the DEW!!

As I recall what happened please keep in mind that with what hackers are capable of doing could explain what happened to me.

Anyways a little less than two weeks ago my CD Key was stolen. I contacted BOI and they gave me one long email reply of what to do. I decided that I would wait until my Key is actually banned to reply to the email. The first two days the hacker messed with me. He spawned me some gear, and I killed myself. The second time he teleported me to God knows where. I got myself killed by quickly hitting the respawn button. Note that each of the things that he did to me he did while I wasn't on.

That was the last time he messed with me. Until two days ago that is... I logged into server US 3332 (My home server) and as it was loading me in I went AFK to grab a quick bite to eat. I came back to find myself in the debug fields, shaking, without gear, and in the bottom left corner it saying, "Skat3rat Died" I was able to move around. I aborted and rejoined thinking it must of been some glitch.

I re spawn in the middle of some woods with my coyote pack but nothing else. I had the no items respawn glitch happen to me before but not while keeping my backpack. As I look around to see where I am I realize that it is night time now. I look around and only see trees as far as the eye can see. The woods were so dense that I couldn't see the sky. Everything was pitch black and near impossible to make out. Deciding that I'll just go and play regular Arma, I log off.

Today day I log in and find myself in a new place. It is still pitch black but I'm no longer in the middle of the woods. I'm on a road that seems to stretch on forever in both directions with trees along both sides of the road. I start server hopping and trying to find a daytime server to see a bit better and hopefully determine where I am. Each server I join appears to be nightime and still pitch black.

I decided to join 3332 and try and find some kind of town (The little info thing in the bottom right corner won't tell me where I am). I look into the sky to see if I can manage to navigate using the stars when I notice that it's only empty blackness. I look at both directions of the road and try to determine where to go. I'm thinking to myself that this hacker guy really screwed me over now, but I can't figure out how and why everything is so dark. The only thing I could think of was that I was having terrible luck with every server I join being night.

In one direction there is complete blackness. In the other direction there appears to be some sort of light. It was very dim though, almost no light at all. I check to see if anyone is on. It's just me.

"Maybe someone was on just a few minutes ago and started a campfire. Or threw a flare or chemlight," I thought to myself.

I started running towards the light in full sprint. As I got closer the light almost seemed to get farther but at the same time larger...

I stopped and stared at it. I honestly began getting a big freaked out.

"What is going on? What the frick did this hacker guy do to me? Where did he teleport me!?" I began saying out loud.

I started running towards the light again. After about a minute or two I thought I heard someone. I quickly yelled asking if someone was there. No reply. I checked to see if there were any players on again but still, it was only me. I chuckled.

"I'm getting paranoid again," I laughed. It happens to everyone on this game. I decided to try running the other direction now. It didn't seem that I was making any progress going the other way. I thought maybe it was just a lighting glitch. The other direction seemed to go into complete blackness and I was running towards it, I noticed for the first time that the trees were all exactly the same. Not the slightest bit of difference. They all were in the exact same collom. As if they were on an imaginary line.

Out of nowhere a loud screech let out. My heart stopped and I swear it skipped a beat. I was paralyzed with fear. The scream sounded like it came right behind me. I turned around but saw nothing. I began debating what to do. Still no one was on. There were no zombies and it seemed as if I was stuck in the middle of nowhere. Everytime I freak out in this game I begin shaking IRL. At that moment my shaking was some of the worst it's ever been. I want to log off, I want to get out of here, I want to find out where I am, and I want to find out who or what is messing with me.

Then as I turned around to start running back in the direction I was just going... I saw someone. He was standing no more than 20 meters in front of me, completely black with no distinguishable feature. If I had a weapon I would of sprayed every last bullet into him. But since I had nothing I could only just stare at him. He didn't move. Just stood there. I couldn't tell if he was facing me or facing the way I was going. Still no one was on and I yelled out in a panicked and terrified voice asking him who he was.

"Who the hell are you!?" I yelled out again. It had to be a hacker I thought to myself. Another scream was let out but this time in a high pitch that made my ears ring for several minutes. I threw off my headset and was about to abort when something happened... I found myself in complete blackness. Not the blackness I was just in. No I could make out SOME things in that dark. The darkness I was now in made everything undistinguishable. I kept my headphones off in fear that another scream would be let loose. I'm glad I did. A scream that I'm pretty sure damaged my headphones ringed out. It was like a death cry but at the same time a war cry. All around me flames reaching as high as I could see appeared. A few seconds later I recieve the, "You are dead" screen. With relief I abort. I go to find another server that is somewhat populated and respawn. With one of the best feelings I've ever had in this game, I find myself on the shores in daytime...

I am afraid that the Devil stole your CD key.

Oh god... Why :o

Have you ever visited Green Mountain? There may be your answer.

[Skat3rat 1633]

Have you ever visited Green Mountain? There may be your answer.

Oh god don't remind me of that. I literally got chased down by something there. I got it on FRAPS too. Well my friend did. I'll be uploading the video soon. What ever was there was screaming and growling on green mountain. I swear I'm haunted. It won't be long until I find my stories on CreepyPasta Wiki and get no credit for it.

went there tonight at night, only having a flare for a guide, Damn i have been so damn paranoid in all my life!

[Krieger (DayZ) 17]

My friend and I were moving through the forests around black lake, heading up and west towards the airfield - the whole time we were making our way through the trees I would hear these footsteps behind us, my friend heard nothing and I never spotted anything moving.

I was in the lead and just as we cleared the woods I turned back to make sure my buddy was still with me and managed to take this screenshot before I hit ALT-F4.

Needless to say we have never been back.

There was a movie I saw as a kid on TV. The Creature from Black Lake. It scared the PISS outta me.

[cultus 1]
