Satisfying Revenge on a Bandit

[Sandwichx 103]

So I had just died from a bandit sniper. No big deal. I like starting over. I find my favorite part of this mod is crawling through towns with naught but a hatchet, looting houses and supermarkets. I spawn in near Elektro, so I say "fuck it" and decide to loot part of the town, then run my ass away. On my way there, I pick a hatchet and some random supplies. When I get into Elektro, I go into this apartment building thing. I'm not quite sure what it was, but it was a high value loot spot. Anyways, while I was in there, I heard, what sounded like, someone lighting a flare. So asked if anyone was around, but got no answer. I was on edge at this point, so I was sneaking around a bit. I got out onto the roof, and as I started looting stuff, "bam" and I'm dead. Darn. Oh well, I'll just start over. It's not like I had anything of real value. Well, when I spawn, I end up spawning on the beach in Elektro. I decide to go back and see if I can loot my body without getting killed again, and then try to find the bandit that killed me. Well, I sprint through the streets of Elektro, back to my body. I end up not taking any aggro, and I was only about three blocks away from where I died. As I get back onto the roof, I lie down and crawl to my body. I'm about done looting my corpse when I hear a gun shot ring out across the block. My heart starts racing and I shift backwards into the doorway. After about thirty seconds, I decide, "fuck it". I run straight onto the roof and run back and forth, hoping he will see me and waste some ammo. I hear about four shots go past my head before I get back down. By this time, I had noticed, he wasn't very far away. Maybe only three or four buildings to my right. I can't see where he is yet, but I know the direction he's in. While I'm prone on the ground, I decide to loot more stuff from my corpse. While doing so, I take a shot to the side. Then shot after shot rains down on my position. The guy fired probably three clips at me without hitting me again. I stand back up to get into the doorway to bandage myself. As I stand up, I see him on the ground, running from a building towards the one I'm in. He is being chased by about ten zombies. He looks up and sees me standing. He stops to shoot at me more, like an idiot. He hits me and I die, but not before I watch him get surrounded by zombies and eaten alive.

I hope you all got a kick out of this story like I did. I have no problems with bandits. I think they make the game more interesting. But that doesn't mean it's not fun to get revenge when you can.

Cool story man. I respect you for not being too pissed about it and rant because... let's face it. Each time eny of us dies it's because we're being careless, right? So good on you mate!

I don't really see how that was revenge...

[Moshun Unseen 0]

I too, fail to see the "revenge" in this story. Sounds more like carelessness on a "wannabe" bandit's part to me. It is however good that you feel like your vengeance was satisfied.

Cheers

It was revenge because I couldn't really care if I die, so it doesn't really bother me much. However, he got murdered by zombies for being stupid. I think that's pretty satisfying revenge. Also, I feel like I sort of led him into killing himself. I let him shoot at me for the sole purpose of him using up his ammo. The zombies killing him was just a plus.

Agro'd the town trying to kill a Survivor with an Axe? Nice.

Oh it was. After I died, I walked away from the game with a smile. When I came back, like an hour or so later, my character had somehow come back to life in the building where I died. I didn't have an items on me, and my body was gone, but I was able to loot the building and leave the city with a fair amount of loot.
