DirtyWilly 0 Posted May 23, 2012 So my companion and I are at the apartments scavenging for supplies from a recent Zombie horde attack... I make the mistake of rummaging through gear too close to an open window and three gunshots bangs later, I'm back at the ocean.I begin my long trek back towards the apartments.On the way I meet up with a fellow Survivor by the name of Nomino. Now I made it clear that I wasn't a threat to Nomino and was just passing by, but Nomino had the taste for blood that day. A hail of M16 fire erupts my way and before I know what's going on I'm half dead, bleeding, hiding behind the peer warehouse at Balota. I manage to bandage my wounds and think to myself, f*ck this guy!Realizing that I'm not going down without a fight, a few minutes later Nomino makes a defensive withdrawal down the shore keeping me at range of his M16.The chase begins! With little to lose, I come to my senses and decide to follow this would-be bandit using the foliage to mask my approach. About a mile later the jig is up and another firefight ensues. Luckily there was a rock just big enough to duck behind while bullets are literally sparking inches from me. I know I have no shot versus that M16, but if I can just get close enough... and as luck would have it, because Nomino is now panicking I'm able to get into the "kill zone".It's the end of the road. Nothing but open field from here, it's going to be him or me. My (real) heart is racing, I've never killed a survivor before but he has to pay. I quickly throw a distracting flare out to my right, giving me just enough time to sprint left. I circle the assailant at point blank range and before he can react I empty my last two clips.Nomino lays dead, and I popped my Bandit cherry. Poor guy must have been surviving for at least a week. I think I've been on some ARMA 2 missions with less gear than this guy had. M16, spare DMR sniper rifle, binos, food for days...Was it worth it? Only time will tell. The moral of the story is if your name is Nomino, don't shoot at Survivors! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard_b 15 Posted May 23, 2012 nice shooting. Unless you are in the crosshairs, never try to say friendly, as they will almost defintely stab you in the back, unless they are new, your IRL friends, or have way more gear than you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyWilly 0 Posted May 23, 2012 Haha thanks Xquisite. It was really intense! This guy did have way more gear!I think he was on his journey to the darkside, I saw a dead survivor near him.(Haven't had that kind of rush from a game in years.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chalas 1 Posted May 23, 2012 I got a bandit skin for the first time yesterday as well.Me and my friends were looting the radio tower at the airstrip in the south and were terribly bored. We were checking the hangars and some guy is sprinting with only one zombie chasing him into a shack. I was the first one to see him and alerted my friends. He came out of the shack sprinting towards us without warning and run around and out of the adrenaline I shot him dead with my assault rifle. I really didn't feel bad at the moment, we are a wolf pack and losing any of us is not an option, specially when it takes 20 minutes to spawn plus the time it takes to run to rendezvous.The problem is that the game does not have much for experienced players to do. Once you learn how to survive, there is nothing else to do but to pvp. Hopefully they will add more content or we will have to start PVPing to avoid boredom.
