Server- us 89 (30 ppl on the server

I had snatched up a as50 and a satchel and ghillie with my buddy. So I was in a pretty good mood. Ready to loose it in we begin to move in on cherno. My friend had a m4 Cco sd moving infront of me clearing the bath to a tree line. Hearing shots fired all over the place we were excited. After getting us to the tree line I see a player of the bat and drop him. The play calls out our location on side chat long after we displace to another spot, dropping three more before moving again. Coming up on our third position is where it gets interesting. My friend gets dropped right infront of me, I hit the ground scanning. Three different shooters all with lmg's so I take the one satchel I have and move closer to my friends body and place the charge and hide behind a tree less than 5m away. The three move in and I call out in direct chat, stop right there, they all go prone. I say I placed a satchel and if you get near his body I'll blow us all. If I'm going down I'm taking you all with me. They called me a liar and moved in for me. Bad move, I scrolled my mouse over touch off (bombs (1)). They still didn't see me. They stood over my friend, and said, see told you he was bullshitting us, just ano...... We all died. I smiled. When I blew us up it sent all of our bodies flying none of us knowing where they went. Thy told me good job on their death screens. After calling me a hacker of course, I mean satchels are rare as shit, but they came around eventually.

Thanks for the fun time gents

That standoff took forever!!!

I did this yesterday.. I was getting tired of hackers spawning on top of me every time I try to have a little camp with a sniper rifle.

I logged into a populated server and crawled into position & set a satchel right behind me. Sure enough wan't even 10 mins and I can see a guy in a Ghillie spawn in almost right on top of me from 3rd person.

Was he a hacker I wasn't 100% but I was 99% sure he didn't just magically log in there like a lucky leprechaun.. I set off the satchel blowing my self up & he lived. which pretty much cleared up that 1% chance that he was actually a skilled player..

That's awesome. If only you were able to record it.

Actually Man i did, Ill try and upload it. I've been at work and sick since this happened so I have not had time to upload it. Was pretty crazy. Sorry for the crappy grammar on the OP, I wrote this with my Iphone while i was at work. I just thought I should share. It was halarious, the guys where screaming. I came back and took a look at the scene and the aftermath was crazy. 5-6 people fighting over the 1-2 bodies that where there. Tree's knocked down from the satchel. a body floating 100ft off the ground (Presumably my friends, seeing as how the satchel was right ontop of him) I will have to start writing up more of these soon.

Awesome story. I can't wait to see the video. I would have never thought of that. BEANS.

That's a good idea, actually. I spend a lot of time in this game scouting a good hide, making every effort to find the best possible concealment, even if it severely limits my FOV. It's pretty tough to find unconventional spots, but it pays off... and I've had one too many people teleport on top of me, exactly as you described.

My new mission is to find some satchel charges and add them to my loadout.
