A little story about me and a group of bandits

[cobaas@live.ie 62]

i had just spawned on the beach near kamenka, and had nothing of use, so i decided to head north into the woods before heading east to cherno, as i was moving i saw something running past the edge of the woods i was in and when i looked closer, it was a bandit, when i got a proper look it turned out to be 3 bandits, as i had no weapons i couldn't shoot them, so i had to be stealthy, for the next 40 odd minutes i was following them, sticking to the woods as much as i could until eventually they stopped at their camp, and then they logged out.

i ran down to their tents and stole what i needed, which included an m4 cco sd, an m9 sd, ghillie suit, map, gps, lots of cooked meat, an alice pack, beans and coke, morphine, and a lot of ammo, 6 mags for the m4 and 5 mags for the m9. So stalking bandits paid off! anyone else got any stories about bandits?

Yep yep.

Happened last week

---

Spawned in Kamenka, city of death. A group of 7 or 8 wookies were sitting there with powerful gear.

They spot me and another survivor and act all friendly and shit. They take us to our camp. They off the other dude for not following their directions... Bastards killed Timmy.

We get to their camp, and they bid me gather as much gear as I'd like. I find a satchel charge.

To my astonishment, they build a fireplace and all sit around it. I run over to the fire and place the explosive. They thought I was just fucking with the fireplace. I back up a safe distance, then scream "FOR TIMMY!" into direct and touch off the charge. All 7-8 are instantly killed. They start freaking out in the side chat. I talk to them in it while I take what I want from their bodies, tents, and vehicles, then hide the bodies, destroy the tents, and destroy all of their vehicles save their helicopter, which I stole and jumped out of near Cherno. The chopper collides with the city hall and apparently kills another... As I safely float down to the ground with a parachute.

I was very aroused at that point.

Fuck I need to get fraps.

Yeah, I was running with my bandit buddies the other day and we noticed after a while that a fresh spawn had been following us from Kamenka. He seemed to be trying really hard, so instead of just shooting him we just led him to someone else's camp (which keeps respawning high-end gear thanks to 1.7.2.5.) and logged off for the night.

I and a friend, Guffe, were fairly new to the game. We crouched around the coasts, scavenging for weapons. I remember me finding a revolver, and Guffe had this magnesifent winchester 1866. We heard about the NW, and all its players, killing eachother!

We had never met a bandit before, and never had the thought about killing any. We decided to head north from Kamenka. We ran for very long, deep into the woods. We saw a deerstand. From the deerstand came military looking zombies out. We got real exited and scared at the same time. We slowly aproched the deerstand, without the zombies seeing us. We got to the ladder, mission completed! I went up, and almost pissed myself of fear. Inside the deerstand were this camouflaged guy sitting with his full automatic AK looking weapon, Ben. He looked at me, while i was frozen as a rock climing the ladder. He started talking to us, telling us about the NW. He asked if we would join him on his trawel. We were now 3, heading north.

We went through a huge forrest. The amazing armed camouflaged guy, Ben, made us stop. "Players right ahead". I and Guffe thought great! Another player to the group. Then Ben told us the the player ahead most likely wasn't friendly.. No he wanted to kill us if he got sight on us. For the second time of the day, I got exited over meeting other players, not knowing what they would do.

We proned further, and we saw tents. Many tents! I and Guffe never thought about you could create camps, and now we wanted to make one on our own, ofcourse with our new friend Ben. We were around 30 meters from the tent, and Ben stood up, taking 3 shots. The person ahead fell down. We moved to the camp, but Ben made us stay back so he could check the area first. Ben said it was clear and we moved into the camp. In the tents there was amazing firearms, and all sorts of items. We armed up and Ben learned us about what we could do with each item. I and Guffe who thought a revolver was truely amazing, now had M4's!

We heard something aprouching us, it became louder and louder. Cars! We proned down, in the hope they would no see us. In came an ATV and a military jeep, UAZ. They drove into the camp. They went out, they were 4, scavenging the area. Most likely firends of the person Ben shot earlier. They looked around, obviously looking for us. Ben started shooting against them, and got 1. They shot Ben, he was gone. Now they were 3. I and Guffe had not clue what to do now, when Ben was gone. They stopped looking around, and went to the tents. This was our opportunity, and we fired all our rounds at them. All 3 of them went down. The feeling inside me was amazing. We now found out we would be like these lads. We were now bandits.

We went inside the jeep. Further north. We found a cool looking spot for our camp. Inside the UAZ were a few tents. We found out how to set them up. Now we needed items for our camp, and went scavenging for more weapons and equipment, which is what we still are doing today..

Thats a pretty cool story man, Ben sounds like hes rambo!

i killed my first bandit just half an hour ago.

i usually hang around near bor where there is a small town with market (zelenogorsk) & some deer stands, anyway there are no medical suplies close so i have to run to medical camp near balota airfield. on my way there i saw movement near by, i was just south of town of balota at the coast and it was a bandit with a sniper rifle, i guess he was lookin for noobs i think, i sprayed him with a mag of akm bullets from a bush and he was dead, never saw me. i guess he was a legit player, he didnt combat log.

i didnt loot him cos i didnt know if he did have friends around.

day 5

zombies killed 5

headshots 1

murders 0

bandits killed 1

I heard a horn and saw a fast moving light in the distance on a road, it stopped suddenly and dissapered, as I got closer to inquire I could see an incredably irratic light, but smaller than the one before in the same area, as I zoomed in I could see a guy running back and forth from the back of what I would later learn is a URAL to the side and fiddleing around, he had a bandit skin, but no NVGs (it was the dead of night).

I considered killing him but thought he might not be alone, and with a unsilenced MP5 i'd be spotted easily, and I don't know what gun he had but it was big.

I noticed I had gotten with 30 yards of the URAL without him even noticing (in ghillie) and as he ran back to the rear of the URAL I crept up to the URAL and got in.... The passangers seat haha. I'd never been in a vehicle before so I was panicing big time, soon enough I got into the drivers seat and drove away.

I went to my pre-determind camp site and parked up the URAL and pitched my tent not far away from it and transfered as much as I could, multiple LMGs, M4A1 CCO SDs, M9SDs, snipers, etc, etc. Next server reset the Ural dissapaered, reset after that the tent dissapered.

Easy come, easy go.

Good to see you just took what you needed lol.

Surprised you spotted them before 3 of them spotted you.

[Axz 30]

I think it was just a single chancer who happened upon a URAL that probably belonged to someone else, I doubt it was a medics URAL as it had very little food, water and medical supplies, mainly guns and ammo with little to no tools. I had only had the game 5-ish days so I was still a noob and was not sure what the "right" thing to do would be, but it struck me as something I would regret if I didn't at least try.

I was not sure if I should put a thread here when I found it asking who it belnged too, if it where stolen by the bandit from survivors i'd return it, but if I stole it from bandits they'd prob' want my head on their wall, that's why i'm not saying what server it was on, but it wasn't a English speaking server so I think i'm safe haha.

What lead me to belive he was a lone chancer who just happened upon it was he didn't have NVGs, to raid someones base and steal a loaded URAL is not something you do in the dead of night with only a torch mounted weapon, that's sucide surely.

(I'll give my beans to the first person to make the Airplane referance that i've set you up for.)
