UPDATED DAILY: I'm Issuing a Warning to Any Snipers

[ZombieSpecialist 144]

For too long, my worry is not zombies within major cities, but snipers who's only joy in the game is killing people. Often they won't go for their loot which demonstrates how they only want to kill humans for the fun of it - despite what many of them lose in gear.

So I'm issuing a warning... wherever I am, in any server the snipers in Cherno will be brought to justice. I will wait, and wait, and wait, and wait in darkness (or a gillie suit) and pursue you. I can't do it alone, but I hope to kill enough so they stop - at least on that server. If there are none, I will move server, and find you.

If I kill you from long distance: again, I will wait. I will wait until you foolishly try to regain your gear and BANG you're dead again. When I reach the top of the roof and skilfully crawl up behind you, make no mistake about it - I WILL say in direct communication "Stick this up your arse you little prick!" before I blow your brains out.

Snipers, I'm coming for you.

UPDATE:

I have good news for all of you.

So far I have DESTROYED 14 snipers in Cherno in the past day. Two have come back for their stuff, only to be killed again.

It's almost like I'm one with the grass. And do you know what? I was prone when someone ran past me... I thought "I'm running low on food here..." and instead of getting an EASY kill, I ran into the city to get food/drink. I felt bad for even thinking it... but then my sniping abilities improved after this.

Also, I've saved 3 people from definite death. One guy was only about 30 metres in from of me, zigzagging like hell getting sniped. It only took me 5 seconds to find the sniper on a building, scoped in and killed the fucker.

The guy who I saved stopped... and this might be wishful thinking but he looked at me for a split second laying down on the grass and it was almost like he thanked me.

I've server hopped 8 times in order to find them, and believe me I have.

Snipers, I'm still coming for you. And getting more fucking experience as each day goes by. My hunger for you grows.

UPDATE:

I snipe and kill purely for pleasure in this game. No one will ever stop people sniping in major cities or anywhere, i have solution though introduce bears into the game.

If you are in Cherno: stay there. This will be good. If you think you are safe in another city killing innocents, it will only be a matter of time until the number of snipers in Cherno on a three hour basis drops below 0.33, to the point where I move city. If you are in the area I move to, count yourself already dead.

UPDATE:

Don't really feel bad anymore either, because I know they would've shot me the minute they saw me, if they had the chance.

I welcome the OP to find me, if I'm ever in his server and happen to be sniping. I would enjoy the challenge of having a fair fight.

Hmmm, two things that are wrong with this post.

a) To assume that the only reason you kill people with a sniper is because you "know they would've shot me the minute they saw me" is a ridiculous presumption. Not only because a lot of people ARE friendly, but because it's not "kill or be killed" it's you just killing. It's not as if you see someone from afar and think "they will kill me so I should kill them". You will never meet.... you could avoid them. Ridiculous statement.

Number two, I love and hate how you said "would enjoy the challenge of a fair fight" - I don't think you would, because chances are you would die - you're only used to killing people who are innocently running along and who cannot fight back.

I was recently watching a tiger documentary, and ones accused of man-eating were kept in prisons. But a millionaire wanted to free them into the wild, and did. But some tigers got so accustomed to being fed dead meat, they would probably die in the wild because they would have lost most ability to hunt. This is the same situation, you're so used to killing people who a) very likely cannot fight back B) are an easy kill. So tell me, what do you do when you come up against someone who isn't easy to kill and are very capable of fighting back? You become the tiger who starved to death.

UPDATE:

This morning it was sunrise, and as it was I ran into the forrest, leaving Cherno behind for now.

My time in Cherno has been glorious guys. I've killed over 60 snipers in the past week or so. It's been amazing. I hope the people of Cherno can walk the streets without dying, sorry getting killed. The streets on my UK servers are 99% clean, the ratio of snipers/hour is sometimes 400% better than it was when I started. Because I am loyal to my country, I should stay on the UK servers. However I must move to Elekro. Also I have great news, I managed to obtain NVGs the other night so this means that no longer are the streets of Cherno clean on daytime servers, but at night they are clean too. And Elektro will be clean soon too.

So, if so far you have read this thread in complete comfort, knowing that I'm a couple of miles away from you so you are safe, then unfortunately you're MASSIVELY mistaken. Elektro will have it's saviour too. You're sniping days are over, people on the UK server. You're... DayZ... Are... Numbered.

And you could be number 1 on my list.

UPDATE:

The noble sentiment is good.

But the massive ego and attention whoring forum post is not.

It was deliberate. I'll PM you the details if you want. Just send me a private message.

UPDATE:

Right to anyone who wants to join me in my quest to eradicate snipers, I don't want to join you! What I do need you to do is server-hop the hell out of the game (the reasons why you should is on page 11) and kill as many as you can. Then eventually they will be a much smaller minority.

Thanks!

I counter snipe in Cherno all the time, just park your ass on one of the hills and stare at the factory roof.

[SadPanda (DayZ) 181]

Good luck with that :rolleyes:

I'm sure they are all quaking in their little tightie whities.

I understand, but this will be like no attack you, or any "ordinary citizen" can formulate. This will be a calculated assault on EVERY GODDAMN SNIPER IN DAYZ, PERIOD.

However, if you're on a roof taking pictures of beautiful Cherno, your life will be spared ;)

[snafuu (DayZ) 30]

You go, girl!

[zython (DayZ) 196]

Well then...

[Bushmaster14 51]

Yeah I remember the OP. IIRC I slapped him with a 7.62 nato in the chest on the office complex but mighta been the fire station. They always have to stop and look at something.......

It was neither of the above. You're talking bollocks. Well yeah, I have to stop and look at something because you know, there's stuff to look at. Do you expect me to zigzag through the entire map endlessly? Never looking at anything?

I'm about to go on a barbwire, sandbag, and tank trap rampage. Anywhere where server hoppers frequent or snipers like to hide are about to get much more dangerous.

yeah, its the same as whiners whining about whiners lol.

@OP, see you on the Battlefield, btw, i snipe in cherno because it seems like alot of noobs dont know what north is, and think that cherno and elektro are the only 2 cities in the game, so yeah, now i will head to cherno and show them they should have moved north.

Snipers, I'm coming for you.

"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. ... I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you."

Something like that?

The above logic makes no sense. The difference is that they're camping to kill friendlies, or people who are NEW to the good. I'm camping to kill the people that kill innocent guy's trying to learn how to play the game.

And "whiners moaning about whiners" makes no sense either. I'm not complaining that they're killing friendlies, and then going on a rooftop and killing friendlies. It's a totally different scenario you fail to comprehend.

And yeah, Liam Neison should have gotten quoted, I agree.

What happens when you accidently counter sniper a fellow counter sniper? Do you feel unimaginable guilt?

[Rising (DayZ) 99]

You have to see them first.

[ZombieSpecialist 144]

Good question. I'm assuming that if that does happen I'll never find out about it... so no guilt. Majority of them will be arseholes, I'm going with that :)

[ZombieSpecialist 144]

You have to see them first.

In my quest for batman-esque justice (minus the no guns rule), I factored that in.

[flawlesssoul 30]

Nah, when two counter snipers are operating individually, there's an unwritten law that states they will both happen to look at the other at the exact same moment. They will then kneel, do an extended (sometimes as much as two or three kilometer) air-brofist, and then return to their duty.

If there are three? Well, one of them just gets fucked.

Yea, I've been thinking about going counter-sniping, myself. Soon as I get camo/ghillie, I'll probably try it for a while.
