Not my lucky day(z)

Recommended Posts

So there I was just after logging in for the day ready for some zombie dogding and gathering essential supplies I stumble upon a tractor... it's in driveable condition so I chug on over to the factory to scavange some spare parts and I get lucky.. everything I need was there.

So, I fix up my shiny new vehicle and decide to go for a test drive. Two minutes later the front wheel gets snagged on the corner of a burned-out humvee, so I try to reverse... it doesn't move. I try some more... I get ejected from the tractor with 600 blood, in shock, with a broken leg and my blood spewing forth like a volcano.

Bye bye sweet loot... ah well... I can run back to my body and get the items back if I'm lucky! ... Server restart.. grrr

So, there I am a few hours later, just got some reasonable gear together... teleported with everyone else to a field full of beartraps by a hacker. broken leg, bleeding and in shock. Bah.. log off for a minute.

Log back in, bandage up.. go and check the not so lucky folks bodies for some morphine... 10 bodies, no drugs. soo... I decide that I'm a survivor and crawl the 2.6km to the nearest hospital. hmm.. windows won't break. I know I'll relog.. maybe that will fix it! So log back in again and I get 'Pick a gender' Noooooo!!

So, there I am, on the beach in Kamenka and I decide to have a bit of fun... find a hatchet and go on a zombie rampage.

42 zeds later I reach Balota. I still have 7k blood so I raid the area and manage to pick up an aks-74u. Not too shabby I think and proceed toward Cherno.

As I reach the apartments on the west side of Cherno, I find the body of an ex-survivor, kind enough to be carrying an m16a2, an alice pack, map.. all other essentials.

YES! Back in the game! I take shelter in one of the apartments as I hear some nearby gunfire. I decide to climb up to the roof for a better look. Okay, now just going to lay down and check out the area. Press prone.... runs forward 5 steps and dives off of the roof, hits the floor.. in shock, broken leg.. pass out... get eaten by zombies.

Ho hum... think I might leave it until tomorrow.

Yeah that random running dive has killed me too. Stupid and inconsistent (the magic Arma formula). Teleporting players to a field full of beartraps, that's new. I dislike hackers but that does make me chuckle just a bit.
