Some people just suck

Recommended Posts

So last night my room mate and I were scoping out the NE airfield, minding our own business. I was standing on the runway, looking through my backpack when I hear the crack of a sniper bullet go right over my head. I quickly stand up and start zig zagging to my buddy who is in the security shack by the hangers. I scope it out and I find the sniper chilling less than 100 feet from where I was sitting when he shot at me. My buddy get spotted by zeds and runs towards the sniper who shoots at him and hits him several times. In the frenzy I chuck a frag grenade at both of them and end up missing. Eventually I took out my AKM and just lit the guy up and strangely the hoard of zombies just disappeared. I find the dude has a DMR with like 10 magazines, gps, map, all those goodies and a 1911. My question is, how the shit does someone with all of that equipment and a DMR miss me while I am sitting completely still for at least a minute from less than 100 feet away?

If it was the DMR at such close range, he may not have taken into account the fact the scope is default zeroed at 300m. Meaning he would have shot way over your head. This is assuming he wasn't aware of that, not many first timers are.

The strange part was that after firing 2 or 3 shots from his DMR he just kind of stopped shooting and stood there occasionally shooting with his 1911.

Possibly desynchronisation or lag in that case. Either that or the player is new and was luckily enough to stumble upon high-grade gear.

From either way you look at it, you came out on top, and I'm sure he learned something from it.
