Fighting Back Yet Unarmed

Recommended Posts

Okay, so I just thought I'd share a recent experience of mine where I was completely unarmed yet able to defeat/scare off a gun wielding player. (TL;DR version at the bottom)

I had just freshly spawned in Kamyshovo and was coming up to the warehouse building at the harbour, when I notice someone inside. I immediately take cover and say my usual speil: "Friendly" "Dude? I'm friendly don't shoot" "I'm unarmed" etc. etc.

I warn him that I'm coming in and am unarmed but as I poke my head round the door her fires his revolver at me, the shot flying past my head (and just missing) and sending my character into a state of shock. Now I'd had quite an unlucky streak of deaths at this point and wasn't about to be player killed again, so I crouch-ran to the back of the warehouse and hid. A few moments later I see the man with his ALICE pack and revolver proning his way out of the town.

I thought to myself that it wasn't fair that he would get off with making an attempt on my life, when some inspiration hit me.

I immediately stood up and began sprinting around the town, getting sadly only about 3 zombies agrro'd, and then ran at the man as he was crawling away, my undead legion trailing behind me. He didn't notice me until I had closed a sizeable gap, and he was forced to sprint to avoid the angry zombies.

While we were running side by side I opened his ALICE pack, glad to see that you could still run while taking gear, and acquire what little supplies he had inside (morphine food and drink). I then sprinted into the treeline and left the douche to his fate, hopefully he will reconsider attacking unarmed players in the future.

TL;DR: If you're unarmed use zombies as a weapon and steal shit from another player's backpack while he/she is running.

Beans for the tale and the use of the phrase 'undead legion'.
