Interesting Encounters

Recommended Posts

Last night I had a couple of what I might consider close encounters of a DayZ kind.

The first instance was at Zelenogorsk. I was looting the barracks looking for an AK or M4. As I’m making my way through I see a guy outside one of the windows with an AK pointing at me. I quickly run into the bathroom and hop out of party chat, and tell the guy I’m friendly, and there’s no need to be pointing guns. He hops into game chat as well and is quite excited to hear someone with a mic.

We chat for a bit, and I end up lagging out while he’s still there with me. The guy had every opportunity to end me, though didn’t. I gave him some water and we went our separate ways.

I then started to make my way toward Troitskoe military. 

Along the way I decided to stop at the civilian barracks by the farm in Zaprundoe to check for my mythical rifle, as well as tip off my water.

Its then I notice a guy crouch walking between the barns. He then stops to eat and drink. As it seemed he was by himself I decide to approach him. I was too far to use prox chat so I did the friendly strafe and jump. The guy sees me then raises his rifle. He proceeds to pop several shots at me before running into the barn. I spoke to him saying it’s really not necessary to kill me as I’m just saying hello. 

I pull out my SK and am ready to take this guy’s head off. Just then he speaks in game chat, telling me he was sorry for shooting. He tells me his friends died from zombies and he’s trying to find his buddies M4. I mention it was cool, and that he should know I was watcyh for a bit, and could’ve killed him several times over.

I decide to help him look for his friends gun. Less than a minute later I find it, decked out with an ATOG and flashlight.

He was quite happy about that. I mention my friends and I were thinking of making this sever a home server, and that we could potentially work together.

We go our own ways. Shortly there after I receive a message...

It was from a guy @xjgbxdarkman I’ve chatted with on these very forums. He tells me it was his M4 I found.. What are the odds?

The level of synchronicities that occurred last night was uncanny.

How about yourselves? Have you had any similar types of encounters?

Yes all of my encounters have started the same way, with my game crashing. Have had zero crashes otherwise. I can hear the other dude speaking but my screen's totally frozen. As soon as they speak it happens. Worth to investigate.

Other than that just the usual, arguing which one has bigger balls and what to do to their corpse you know.

At Rify last night chilling in the ship and someone had lit up and threw a flare inland which I assumed was bait for someone to come take a peak. I decided screw It I’ll take the bait and ran over to have a gander. Of course no one there as I assumed would be the case so I decided to hang out a bit and play “Somebody’s watching me” by Rockwell through my mic hoping whoever lit the flare would get a giggle and respond but I got crickets so I ran off.
