Untalented 0 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) So I've been playing for about four days and have learned a lot. I've died a number of times and yesterday I had my first real adventure. This is my story.After a number of failed attempts last night, two friends of mine met me inside of Cherno. We were able to find a number of supplies needed and made it out of the city alive. We then made our way west towards the airfield in hopes of finding some better weapons. At the airfield, the three of us took aim and fought our way through the tents and the hangars with limited ammunition in our pistols. As luck would have it I found an AK47 and one guy found a combat shotgun. Suddenly while exploring the hanger we began hearing gun shots towards (one of us was hit!) and immediately began running North (luckily I found a compass).We continued North from Balota towards Kozlovka in hopes to re-supply food and water. Once we reached the small town it would seem the town was completely overrun with Zed. After getting spotted we rushed into a house to provide a choke point to take the Zed out. Unfortunately, due to our limited supply of ammunition we almost had one casualty, but luckily was able to provide him with a blood transfusion.We then made our way NW towards Zelen as we had no food left and very limited ammunition. Upon entering a Barn we found a Windchester and additional ammunition, then continued NW hoping to find an animal along the way for food. Time was running out as I only had one can of Bakes beans left and everyone was starving. Upon entering Zelen the sun had set and allowed us easy movement to the market. To our surprise there was no food! To our additional surprise there was a bandit in the market which took out one of our guys, but we were able to take him down and then moved North.As we headed north we ended up finding a sheep which provided us with all the food we could ever want for a few days. We setup a fire and had some dinner under the stars. After dinner we continued North, but skipped Pusto and made our way to Vybor. It was our hope to find some ammunition to support us at the NW airfield. The town was ghostly empty, but ammunition was plentiful. We continued NE towards the airfield.At the airfield, we didn't find much except some additional AK mags and another AK. We ran into quite a bit of Zed trouble here, but were able to make it out. Once we got safely out of the airfield we transfused each other then setup camp near the Devil's Castle.All in all we had a very successful night with only one casualty. We now have food and ammunition to last us a short while, but will need to make our way to a city with a hospital as we're running low on medical supplies now. What a great night!Side question, why do some servers have a moon at night and some don't? The moon really makes night playtime actually playable without NVGs.

Talon2000uk 30 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) I love reading these kinds of stories, shows you the game isn't full of ass holes who are out to SOS. Glad you having fun, your first couple of days echoes my own adventures with friends, stay save and travel with both eyes open.As for the moon, I'm not sure. I know the time in game is tied to the servers local time, not sure if the date is too so if the server date is not set on today's date you will get a different phase of the moon or no moon at all. Or it could be random. Edited July 13, 2012 by Talon2000uk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
