Survivor Tyler 77 Posted July 27, 2012 So here i am trekking my way through Stary Sobor. I'm on my 9th day alive, and i've considerably geared myself out with coyote backpack. M4A1 holo i picked up 4 days back. Im down to 2 mags in my m4 and 5 mags for my .45. My foods blinking and i have yet to find matches so i havent had the ability to kill animals and i have been living off grocery stores. So i make my approach to the store. Low crawling to avoid all zombies in hope no one sees a zombie aggro. I hit the concrete and sprint into the market. Then bam!2 guys in stary market. But phew they have yet to see me. They are having the most intense stare down and yelling over direct chat. The one man has a Lee Enfield. and the other just a revolver and a hatchet. They are yellign and screaming and it seems i came across a hostage situation here. So i lay back and just witness as this man makes this other player drop all his gear on the ground. So the player drops his gear and backs away as the other guy starts to loot it. Then instantly the hostage pulls a makarov out of no where! He the unloads a clip into this guy. And dives behind a wall.The other guy is bleeding bad and then falls unconscious. The kids grabs his gear and sprints away. So i make my approach to the kid on the floor. He starts pleeing for help over direct chat. Me being low on medical supplies not even having a bandage on me at that time i cant be much help to him. So he begs me just to shoot him and get it over with.So i killed himIm not sure about you guys but this is my first ever murder in DayZ and ive been playing almost right after release. But i feel changed. i feel dirty. i feel like i killed a man who was just trying to survive as much as i was. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BunnyHillPro 111 Posted July 27, 2012 This is how the game should be played (your story). Not the bullshit "LETS RUN AROUND CHERNO COD 4 NERB WEEEEEEE". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheDesigner 1197 Posted July 27, 2012 I find this acceptable, since you are North and he was just holding some guy hostage. Beans for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattwatson.mail@gmail.com 68 Posted July 27, 2012 This sounds like it would have been the perfect opportunity to run in, hatchet everyone screaming, then bolt out before they realized what hit them. Next time... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
@ndreas 15 Posted July 27, 2012 ... these kind of stories make DayZ a survival adventure and divide it from being another KoS-PvP-game (although many players mistake it for one)... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soduh Man 1 Posted July 27, 2012 You never really get a chance to do something like this, it's almost as though from a movie. Most players would have just started shooting as soon as they heard them yelling. You waited though and managed to see something awesome while killing the bandit who was sticking the poor sod up.

El Barto 227 25 Posted July 30, 2012 you feel dirty for killing a guy in a video game... get a grip. its all part of the experience. actually, if the game gets an emotional response like this from someone, to me that's good. it makes you feel like you are in this harsh world.OP, i think that you should not worry about this too much. after all, it was a mercy kill (he was dying, and asked you to finish him when it became apparent thaqt he could slowly bleed out). but if you regret it, that indicates, to me, that you are a good person. i haven't started DayZ yet, but i'm expecting a reaction like this when i make my first kill. if i saw someone bleeding, with low blood and no way to get help, i'd heal him if i could.
