Holy **** my heart is pounding!

Recommended Posts

Decided to get a game in, been alive for maybe 30-40 minutes running around Elektro for the first time. I find a crossbow, makarov, tons of hatchets and windows for some reason... Crossbow I need to use up right away, makarov soon follows to a group of zombies. Spend about 10 more minutes running around looking for more items and I walk into this really big building with a room that looks like it's been destroyed. The stairs leading up are blocked, I have only a hatchet on hand and am ready to swing it. I look around the room trying to see what's around me when out of NO WHERE some guy runs into the room with an svd. He must've been as startled as I was because we started running around in circles, not sure if I'd swing or he'd shoot. I quickly decided he'd have to die and start mad hacking at this guy. We erupt into a frantic with him firing all over the place, me hacking away hoping to connect. This goes on for a good 10 seconds or so before he gets downed, may have had a broken leg or was laying down for some reason. I see him still shooting at me so I run close to him, stay to his side and hack away until finally he goes limp. Despite that I keep hacking away, making sure he was dead. Couldn't believe what just happened, I went through his stuff as quickly as possibly but was quickly flanked by either a teammate or an onlooker that heard the firing. Died instantly, but not without a story to tell! If you read this, person that I just encountered, thank you.

That was one of the most intense moments I've EVER encountered in a video game. I can still feel the adrenaline in my system.

Good stuff - this game still gets me, crawling towards one of the hangers at the NW airfield, I was convinced I'd evaded everyone when all of a sudden a zombie starts hitting me from behind.

With the headphones on, the noise and the shock made me physically jump in my chair!

Dude, I know what you be saying, I've played for idk, months now. And when I used to play times shit would get real it would be awesome, one time I was at NW on a very high populated server, took out one bandit and was making my way out through the north exit with a brand new AKS-U w/ 120 rounds of ammo, when out of no where a car starts driving over the hill. First time seeing a car, second I did Q & E then realized how stupid that was when they got out of the car and began opening fire, I ran like hell when out of no where a bullet hits me in the leg and I go down, I crawl my way to the edge of the trees and bandage myself, turn around and their pursuing me, I unload a clip into the first person, and the second Alt-F4'd (the pussy). Meanwhile I realized I shot the car up so bad it was pretty fubar'd. I was still in pain and had no painkillers, but the amount of loot I scored from the bandit was enough to make it all so worth it, plus the adrenaline rush made my heart race like crazy. I love this mod and hope to play it again asap when the hacker problem is solved.
