VikingBerserker 17 Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) Before I begin, I'm not complaining. I know getting killed, dying, and losing your stuff is part of the game. The fun is gearing up after you've lost everything. Thought I'd share my disappointment because a friend and I were doing the best we'd ever done. Over a few days we managed to get coyote backpacks loaded with water bottles, medical supplies, all of the survival equipment including an entrenching tool(useless lol) and gps's. I had a DMR in my pack with an M4 for primary, 9 mags, and a G17. Everything minus NODs and ghillis we had.I found a UAZ, or whatever the 4 wheeled jeep is called, and picked up my friend from the airfield. As luck may have it an unlooted helicopter crash was in the middle of the tarmac and my friend found an L8 with Thermal. Today was a good day.....so far. We hightailed it out of the airfield and started looking for other crash sites, figuring our speed would increase our ability to search for them tenfold. While out searching we both see and hear a URAL in the distance but he keeps going another way. We continue our search and find another one! Two helicopter crashes in the span of 10 minutes. My joy was uncontainable. We found another L8 with thermal as well as a.....duh duh duh GHILLI! The first one I'd ever seen. I quickly donned this ghilli and picked my backpack up off the ground.We hopped back into our truck and took off to the east, towards the coast. On the way we saw the URAL again. I told him we're better off if the URAL doesn't know we're here so what does my friend decide to do? Take pot shots at the tires, while it's going full speed, 600 meters away. That lonely URAL driver drove off into the sunset honking. Thinking we'd seen the last of him we found yet another crash site. We'd barely reached the chopper when I hear my friend's leg break, then a gunshot. He's dead within seconds. I go prone behind the chopper opposite of where I heard the shot but I'm hit somehow. I see him up on the ridge taking shots at me and suddenly my leg is broken. I crawl to the truck under a hail of gunfire from this lone bandit and make it into the driver's seat. I drive away as fast as possible, over a hill, and into the tree line. I hop out to keep myself from bleeding to death and I hear an engine. Getting closer......and closer. I just finish giving myself morphine when the truck barrels over the hill, into my UAZ, and throws me 20 meters where I die...........today is a sad day.....

BearGravy 53 Posted August 3, 2012 I think everyone in this game needs an experience like this, were you make it to the very top, you have the best of the best stuff, you can kill anything in your path. Then suddenly something gets the jump on you and you have to start all over. That feeling of death anywhere and everywhere has to be there all the time. I remember when I had the best stuff in the game, coyote, NVG's DMR(My favorite sniper in game, I don't need AS50 or M107) and a l85 in bag, then I went to the NWA and got shot helping a friend. When I died I was sad, but I got over it and went back to looting. I perfectly fine with dying now, so like I said everyone should go through with something like this. Good story OP. I enjoyed the read. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conor88 17 Posted August 3, 2012 The game is harsh and cruel. It will leave you a broken man at times, but know this: Those glory days will return again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
