Operation: Father Grigori.

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

Initially titled Operation: No More Heroes, renamed after a change of heart for a more fitting title despite my lack of Winchester, I decided to go on a solo venture without my usual squad to brave Electro without anything at my back and running straight into a world that's ready to eat me alive.

Two objectives:

*Start with nothing.

*Help everyone at any cost. No exceptions allowed. If they ask for my gun I will give it to them.

This episode has been reuploaded. No more Youtube induced camera shake.

*Reccomended 720p to avoid lighting issues.

*I can't say how Electro is actually pronounced.

Part two of Operation: Grigori can be found here.

Reddit Thread (upvoting makes for a happy badger). Made by Stephen.

Please forgive me as I'm fairly recent to DayZ and I'm still feeling my way around. But here you can watch my adventure and whether I'm really making a horrible, horrible mistake.

Otherwise I am the Let's Player known as SuperBlueBadger currently working through the game NieR Gestalt.

I gravely seek feedback and suggestions from viewers, I want to hear ideas for things I could do with other people and what I could do to make my commentary more enjoyable to listen to. I'm just curious to know what people think, really.

I have some lighting issues in the video but I'm working on it, I swear. They only happen after the upload to Youtube.

But I'll let the video do the talking. I hope you enjoy!

Nice video! I tried doing something like this as Captain Pacifist, but I didn't drop all my starting gear and refused to use weapons, unless I was hunting animals for meat. Didn't go nearly as well as your play through did, every person I met shot me on sight.

Thanks for the response! I got a nasty youtube comment from someone over nothing at all so I was starting to think maybe posting this here was a bad idea if that was the kind of feedback I was going to get.

I hope you'd be interested in seeing more, because so far I'm having fun with this concept.

Don't worry man, your video is great. I'd like if you turned your audio down slightly, you're a bit too loud.

I'm on it, I never get feedback like that. I'm glad you said something!

Edit: My headphones have a bit of a weird quality about them that make leveling audio kind of difficult.

Good work.

Nice change to see a player like you and especially the random bloke.

[albinorhino 174]

In reference to the weird lighting after loading to Youtube. Youtube often asks me if I want to turn up the lighting in my videos as they're "pretty dark". If it asks you the same thing then just click no. Do the same if it says your video is shaky etc.

[Flying Mathias 18]

I tried a supernice run just now, (but I didn't go barebones, I kept my starting gear) It took me about 20 minutes to get to Elektro, and when I did, I found one guy who was shooting wildly at zombies, low on health, and running around. I offered to help him (I had looted the hospital so I had a ton of medical supplies) He said nothing, so I assumed he didn't trust me. A few minutes later, I saw in the chatlog that he had died, right after I heard several shots being fired.

Later I went to the firestation. I was being chases by zombies, and so I ran into the building even though I could here a guy inside shooting. I hoped he was shooting the zeds, but it turns out he was actually shooting me. Once I got to him, I told him I was friendly; even gave him a blood transfusion. Right after I told him my story about how scared I was that he was shooting, he said "nono I don't shoot". One second later, he put a bullet through my head.

Man, you are getting pretty lucky to have found only nice guys so far.

Episode taken down because YouTube decided to "fix" my video and screw it in the pooch because I was an idiot and hit yes. Part 2 and fix will be up later today.

[MoNo-DK 1]

Aah, couldn't understand why the video was gone now. Looking forward to part 2 :3

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

*Note: The first episode has been reuploaded to fix the problem Youtube caused, if you encountered it during this period, it is now gone for good.

Episode 2: The Conclusion of Stephan & Badger.

All good things must come to an end, but... was it worth it?

Be sure to vote! Do you want me to go to Cherno or Electro (again) next? Or somewhere else entirely?

Also, I apologize for how dark the night scene was. I pumped up gamma before and after processing and I can't get it to look any lighter.

I also turned down my mic volume as per suggested. I hope you prefer it this way!

I cried.

[LeOverlord 150]

I would party with you any day...

If your ever in Electro at night...

I'll bring the chemlights and roadflares...

We'll have a rave in the pub man...

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

Guys, something awesome has happened.

Guess what? I was hit with 78 new notifications of subs and comments for my new series and they're absolutely loving it.

Guess who? Stephen. Stephen posted my videos on Reddit, something I normally avoid and I got hit with so many notifications it was -crazy-. I easily got 50 subs out of those two videos alone. Wild!

[tremanarch 42]

Stephen is a good guy (You too of course)

whenever I will meet you or him I give free hugs and ammo, or food anything that might be needed!!

o7

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

o7 Thanks buddy. Spread the word. The Badger Jesus word.

Also I still need votes! Where should I go for my next destination? If not, the default choice is that we're going to Cherno so that we can carry on Stephens legacy.

[Flying Mathias 18]

Cherno, more people there for you to help/be killed by.

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

Good idea. I've never been there, either. Should be interesting.

[zorsca 0]

Great videos, didn't expect you to survive more than 30 mins, but you prove me wrong.

I've tried being nice in the past by teaming up with randoms, or not shooting unarmed people. After a few minutes when I sparred the unarmed guys, they usually found me and shot me in the back with a weapon they managed to find.

Also, visit Cherno. I wonder if those snipers will shoot you.

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

Cherno it is! I'll probably record tomorrow. Unless more votes come in the meantime.

As to everyone else, be sure to post your thoughts! Commenting keeps this thread alive and gives me great advice so they can keep me alive / entertaining!

The attention it's gotten so far as left me chuffed. I've been smiling all day.

Also the reddit thread for anyone who is interested:

Best quote ever "Might be useful to somebody who kills me"

[DarkRaven123 602]

I read about some guy who loaded up on medical and food supplies and ran at people screaming "friendly, i've come to save you!" in Cherno.

You should do that as a bit of a lulzy video.

Most people either ran the other way or shot him.

[TheBadger (DayZ) 67]

Should I start a new thread since it's a new day of my operation? I can't really decide if I should or not. I probably should stick with this thread.

Also I may get delayed in recording the new episode-- my internet has shit the bed. Pretty bad.

[Kuramashi 22]

Looking forward to the next vid! Laughed my ass off last night. You ever need a hand running around, just message me on Steam or Skype. I believe my names 'elemity' on both.
