Bairhanz 1 Posted July 31, 2012 ...not being a noob.I'm not a bandit myself, nor am I bashing on it. I love the aspect that it gives Day Z. But, for real, some kids need to learn how to aim.I was on a server earlier with the side chat enabled and everyone was having a jolly time, no f*cks given, and me and two dudes I met were crawling around Elektro at night. We survived like 3 big zombie hoards and finally the guy that was leading us broke his leg and we had no morphine left. I volunteered to go back to the hospital by myself while the other dude covered him. Mind you, I'm at like 6k blood with a hatchet and a revolver and all our chat has been on the side channel. I get to the hospital, bust in with my axe, have to drop my revolver in order to pull my flashlight out to see what the hell I'm doing.I start looting a medical box when I get shot. I whip around, see two more muzzle flashes from a bandit standing outside of the hospital window firing a revolver at me. I duck behind the wall, wait, and see him go behind the corner of the building. As I'm bandaging myself I'm like "Wtf bro?" No response. As I'm about to tell him how lucky he was I didn't have my revolver in hand he starts creeping around the corner again. I go prone, crawl up to the window and wait. He gets just out of my hatchet range, sees me, then starts firing. I start scooting left and right, I roll a couple times, all the while he's firing at me. I get up when he finally reloads and go in for the axe kill. I've only recently started playing in third person so my aim isn't that great, so I keep missing. He fires off a whole new clip at me before I finally take him out. I bandage up real quick with like 200 blood left and loot his meds as well as his camo clothing. Rest in pieces "uni".Ironically, as I was bandaging up after I killed him, both my teammates decided to kill themselves to respawn. I survived a literal hail of gunfire for them, murdered a dude with my axe, and what have I got to show for it? Camo clothes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaultDweller (DayZ) 58 Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) That little story of yours sounds like another regular day in DayZ. Edited July 31, 2012 by VaultDweller 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted July 31, 2012 That's not banditry, that was just an attempted murder like every day in DayZ. Players who claim to roleplay a bandit but just shoot on sight to kill or for fun are no bandits imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bairhanz 1 Posted July 31, 2012 I'm still a little disappointed in a way that he didn't kill me. I honestly don't know how he could have missed so many times. I'm still thankful I'm alive of course, but I should have been dead haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We were three looting N AF while i was pointman, one was flanking ( and lost connection... :( ) and one provided cover with the MG. They proly didn't see me first because they opened fire before i came around the corner. I was about 150m from them and was practically without cover and the two man teams MGunner missed 20 rounds then his mate came after me. I had to shoot a Z which i aggroed so i "confirmed" i was a player...When he closed in he got some fire from my covering buddy while i was bandaging myself, then he ran for cover right into my LOS twice. I shot him then he Alt-F4d ( no corpse ) and his mate DCed as well. Well in the end they weren't bandits just well armed survivors just as we were but they opened fire first.
