US 172 - Barehanded Massacre

Recommended Posts

This is probably my best Dayz hunt I've ever had in my 2 1/2 months of playing, and I just had to share it because frankly I felt like fucking John McClane or some shit.

The Meeting

So I load up and spawn in Kamenka and it takes everything in me to not just respawn and hope for something closer. "At least I can take a pit stop at Bolota" trying to ever-convince myself this wasn't a stupid idea. As I'm running up the hill to avoid any roadwalkers or vehicles I spot 4 survivors moving as a tight squad. As soon as I saw those 4 all I could think about was "I'm going to kill them all" even though all I had on me was a bandage, some painkillers and a flashlight.. I was determined. So I began to stalk them through the fields, taking a knee behind every tree and wall I could just to keep my distance but know where they are. I can hear faint radio chatter as they make their way to bolota, so I try to listen in as I'm assessing their weapon situation. 1 Makarov, 1 Double-barrel shotgun, 1 M4A1 SD, and a sniper of sorts.. most likely a CZ - quite the ragtag bunch of guns I know, but a threat none the less.

The Action

So I stalk these guys all the way to the bolota comms tower, where I waited in the coniferous trees just past the perimeter fence, keeping a close eye on the roof of the tower making sure I still count four targets. I hear three shots go off and then complete silence.. zombies I assumed. I see two disappear out of the bottom of the tower setting barbed wire at the entrance so I decided now would be a good time to sneak my way into the bushes just beside the ladder and listen in on radio chatter. "gonna go check hangers" the guys on the ground say as I hear their footsteps getting more and more distant. not 10 seconds later I hear someone coming down the ladder... at this point my heart is pounding so hard in my chest I can hear every beat. Finally reaching the bottom of the ladder I see him booking it towards the military camps through the bushes. As soon as I didn't hear any footsteps I figure this is my only chance to do anything, so I start climbing the ladder just praying that he wouldn't hear me coming. Lets face it, just getting up the ladder without anybody hearing is one thing, but for me to get all the way up.. get behind him AND hope he has something in his bag worth stealing - tough chance, but fuck it. So I get to the top and I see him to my right seeing the guy heading to the military camps off, and right ahead of me is a dead survivor with... AN AXE!.

I rush towards the guy and take cover below the glass, fumbling through the clanky interfacing hoping I grab the axe fast enough. I see this guy walking towards the ladder close to me so I start rolling away to the opposite side while I'm still 'loading' my axe. He starts turning every which way to try and .. what I could only assume is an attempt to climb down the ladder. I've got no idea where his air hanger buddies are but I didn't have any other choice so I got up while he was facing the ladder and four...five swings later he's down on the ground, nearly hitting me with his stupid DB shotgun. "What the fuck, dude are you dead!?" is all I heard on the mics as I literally have a heart attack trying to loot what I could.. which.. lucky me.. was his DB shotgun with.. you guessed it - ONE SHELL LEFT. Not one clip.. not two shots... ONE shot. Fuck me right?. So I'm freaking out because I know I got two guys running to my location, but lucky for me they thought they had the front entrance completely barbed up so all they did was watch the ladder for about... 5 minutes. I'm sweating bullets at this point because basically if I miss I'm dead, and if I try to go through the front entrance as their climbing down the ladder and I'm wrong about their barbed wire job... I'm stuck.. and you guessed it, dead. Nothing I could do right?

So I book it down the stairs and try to get through the barbed wire.. *clang clang clang*. All I could hear is someone climbing the ladder. I try every which way to get through it and finally glitched out through the railing and onto the other side. took me a good quarter of a second to get behind the first hanger because any longer and I woulda probably pissed myself. So I sit and wait, again listening to radio chatter. "This dude is a fucking ghost" "you sure no hacker man?" "alt f4?" "nah man nah I heard him below us". At this point I see two guys circling the tower counter clockwise and they stop at the front entrance to see if I was still there. One of them goes prone maybe 10 feet from the entrance while the other one goes to cover the ladder. I still have no clue where the hell their sniper is, but I didn't even think about it at the time, all I knew is I had one shot and it was game over. I wait 10 seconds to make sure he's not gunna spin around and see me and then I rush at him and put the only shot I got directly into his back. Thank god for 1 shot double barrel rounds is all I got to say because he only managed to get a single shot off at me before dying, unfortunately making me bleed. I quickly stole his makarov and ran around to my regular hiding spot behind the hanger as I waited for the other one to come around. I see that I'm bleeding but I have no clue when someone is coming around the corner so I'm pretty damn scared to do anything but ready my gun. I bleed all the way down to 8700 health where I then wedge myself between the support arch and the hanger itself and bandage. At that very second the guy with the M4A1 comes rushing out thinking I may have ran into the forest behind bolota... another beautiful opportunity. I take one shot... missed completely - he turns around to face me ready to shoot and I put 4 right into his face. Server lag let him squeeze off a round, conveniently hitting my leg and breaking it.

I'm down, no morphine, no time, 3 makarov shots and a fresh clip and 1 guy left. Sweating bullets. I know at this point that the sniper has to be close, and crawling all the way to the guys body would be suicide, so I start rolling towards the space between the two hangers and there he was.. like a deer in headlights ..completely frozen. I took hasty aim with my shaky hands and.... put two into his lower abdomen and missed one. "OH FUCK" is all that was going through my head as I tried reloading.. watching this sniper aim directly at me. Seconds felt like minutes as I watched what felt like the slowest reloading animation ever. *BOOM* a shot goes off.. right into my head... the end of my epic unarmed massacre at Bolota.

The whole thing from beginning to end took about an hour, so you can imagine the amount of time between events here. Pretty scary!

Nice one, I love that feeling when the heart get going and the adrenaline starts flowing. It doesn't happen that often really but the few times that it does is what keeps me playing the game!

I had an event alot like this, although my end was much less heroic. But good story anyways.

Yea your story was pretty good, too bad you alt-f4'd =P. I have to recommend that at one point everybody tries taking on armed people with nothing on you.. it's about a thousand times scarier knowing that if you get caught once there is no turning back. Sure you don't lose anything but it's a lot of time and energy invested. Great fun.
