gizm0 96 Posted July 13, 2012 I remember, a week into playing Day Z, I came accross an unconcious player at the army camp south of the southern airfeild. I dragged him into a tent, bandaged his wounds and gave him blood that he was carrying in his backpack.That was my first selfless act, and it felt good. Especially considering he was a very sound guy- very greatful to be saved from starting over : his name was Raymond. This guy had an AK Kobra. There was no alteriour motive behind helping him, I generally saw a player that destinctly wasn't a threat lying on his back.We hung out for a bit, and met up with my freind. Pursued and killed a bandit taking (fortunately inaccurate) pot-shots at us from a treeline.Standing around, deciding our next move, the sound is broken by a sudden *BANG*! "Ugh i've been shot!" Raymond cries before slumping down to the ground. I immediately start scanning the horizon for the shooter... Failing to realise my freind standing over Raymonds dying avatar. *BANG* a shot rings out again, finishing him off...."Dude, what the fuc......" The last words of Raymond before he passes on.I look at my freind; he looks at me and says:"What? I was bored." I was baffled... I just couldn't believe his dick-headedness. I took the AK, and some other supplies from dear old Raymond and cleared off to the north... All the time cursing my freind for his dick move.However, I have changed in some respect while playing Day Z, I generally try to aid new, unarmed players... Until I get them a gun that is, then we part ways. My trust is fleeting. Day Z reminds me of things like battle royale, and the hunger games. Alliances are fleeting - at best.You should have teached your friend a good out of game lesson ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miss_Nuts 9 Posted July 14, 2012 Due to taking a break, I haven't done this test yet. However, I've finally gotten around to downloading my license of fraps to my current PC and shall likely record a session tonight or tomorrow!My fps is pretty poor at the best of times (30 max - have only got a dual core) so not sure how it'll cope wth fraps recording alongside grrr.

Womb Raider 92 Posted July 14, 2012 On my first encounters with another player he started screaming friendly and 2 seconds later unloaded a whole clip into me. This game rocks.So you let your guard down, good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fooz (DayZ) 46 Posted July 14, 2012 my first time playing I met a fellow (in game) black character and he seemed to like me for the pure fact I was a black guy, so anyway I had no idea what to do really, and he led me around cherno and stuff finding me an AK and a pistol, he took me to the hospital and then proceeded to laugh and say "See Ya" and shot me dead...Last time I trusted anyone in DayZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This story right here. I run with a group of friends. Always go to the high traffic spots. Guess why? They're a bunch of killers, who gain a thrill from taking down survivors, but at least don't DC when the survivors fight back. They always shoot everyone that isn't them.Two of them, the "leaders" had a recent scuffle, with everyone taking sides, except for me. It's turning into a damn civil war. We're meeting at our tents to work things out. I've an M14, and there are a couple of grenades in our tents...Anyway, to the poster, good luck, friend. Tell us everything about your journey when you return. Just know that there are others out there who try and help whenever they can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
