DayZ...summed up in sidechat.
ALAS POOR MATT, I KNEW HIM WELL..
Well not at fucking all actually. Spawn at Balota, enfield and maks going off near the hangars like a middle eastern birthday party. Hang back for a bit protecting my bandage and painkillers near the military camp, 2-3 minutes later and silence so i crouch in to have a look at the carnage. Couple of flyblown dudes in hangar 1, steal another bandage and score a morphine. Morphine, sweeeeet. Thats all i need to to survive this shitstorm.I suck it down.
Have a look in the tower..sfa, but i take an empty whisky bottle so i can lick the lid later. Head out because some other random runs in and brings a fleet of zeds with him, i throw the bottle inside with him, smashing it against the wall and run to the warehouses east of the field. Some dude is in hangar 1 with an svd and says ' hey you got any Morph ? A dude is down with busted legs not too far away... ooops.' 'Ummm no man i haven't got any'. He is shooting zeds with his svd..i round up the 978 he has aggroed and draw them away from him leaving them dumped behind various trees and bushes.
I cruise further along the airfield and into one of the hangars on the eastern side.. and there is old mate prone on the floor..i say..'you must be the dude with busted legs ? ' He says 'yeah man..quite annoying.'..i agree. I check the other warehouse and sip on a coke , he crawls in ak74 out. I tell him 'some dude is back at the other hangars looking for Morph for ya man, if you want i can do a quick run to Cherno and grab you a fix ?' he says 'nah fuck that, i will give you my stuff if you want and go suicide'. I tell him, 'dude ..it will only take me 20 and i can be back with blood and morph' but he has already dropped his Ak74 and ammo and is heading out the door on his belly. He crawls up to two hoppers and is promptly attacked, i watch from the doorway and listen to his screams then i say ' seeya ..and thanks for the gun'
After the carnage, the guy with the svd cruises over and i tell him what went down. We go over and check his stuff , i find out his name was Matt..forever now known to me as Suicide Matt. Svd lad and me decide to head to Cherno so i can bag him as he is at 4800 blood, which we do successfully. But my mind is occupied by the screaming of Suicide Matt as he lay there compliently having his face eaten. I only knew you briefly Matt, but you sir, were a true lad.
Your Ak74 took out a bandit several scenes later so all was not a waste.
Suicide Matt. A dayz Boss - with no fear.

Meanwhile, at the Airfield..
Log in near Novy, ten past eight..nice clear day. Think ahh what the fuk...16 people in game, chances are there is a few in either Stary and if not, definitely at the airfield. Might go and have scope and see who is killing who.Run run run..video options advanced/fuckaround with several/glitch gone..no-one at Stary except for some dead chick outside of the church, backpack full of everything needed to get a vehicle going plus some beanz and drink. Legit player, only a revolver ..no nvgs ,rangefinder or AS50..the horror.
Run run run..approach the forest on the NE side of the field, cruise up past the wall, pop a can of pepsi, chkk ssssss, I can just see the end of the runway through the trees. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! AS50 or M107 ..a bit too far away to tell, but not so far..if you get my drift. Crouch it to a little stack of three firs, you know, the tight in ones that give you good cover. No ghillie, i don't like its wookie style. The standard gear is way more Han Solo cool. And Han always got the girl..you ever see the wookie with a hot chick ? Style always.
I crouch to the East of the barracks , sitting below the open field at the southern end of the runway.
BOOM...closer now. Moving my head around i center where he is on my headphones BOOM BOOM...just on the other side of the rise. Either this guy is a shit shot, he is keeping whoever it is contained in the barracks or he is wasting ammo on zeds for his own amusement. I am figuring he is suppressing by the amount of shots going off. I crouch up the rise..nearly at the top i prone..crawl..looking down now towards the bush and trees surrounding the barracks.
MOTHERFUCKING KABOOM! I nearly jump outta me seat! Fuk me..i must be right on him! Crawl forward a tiny bit more and flatten the grass..shoes ..legs..well hello mr sniper. He is right there...in the open, If he turns he is eating a facefull of dmr. I stay there for about five seconds thinking..then hit gear...L85 and ammo in his pack, water bottle, bunch of as50 mags ,cooked steaks and morphine. I have no room. Look where he is looking ...cant see any action. He crawls sideways so i automatically reverse over the rise.
Run back down to my tree , dump my water and coke, eat my steak, plop my fnfal an nightvison thingy and mags on the ground. Crouch back up..get prone behind him again. He moves sideways and i prone in. G ..open coyote. Loot all. I put four of my five bandages and a pepsi in his. He fires at fuk knows what three times and while i am proning backwards i see a Sergei is dead pop up. I think about capping him..but ..chances are he is popping server hoppers so go to it son.
Run back down to where my shit is , dump his stuff under the trees, grab my shit and cruise away from the field. Hear him shooting in the distance. Fucking noisy ass AS50.
I wonder if when he checks his pack if he thinks it is a glitch or a hacker maybe fucking with his shit. Wish i had a dew to give him instead of the pepsi.
When i was creepin up to loot him i was as keyed up as i have been in any firefight, i hope the guy appreciates the work i put in to knock off his gear and still leave him alive

My lady survives her first NW airfield snipe
Luckily enough my other half likes a good pc game, we went through Crysis and Crysis 2 death for death and she has played a bit of IL2 and some other simulators. She now has her first char in dayZ and has survived her first big journey.
We started at Electro , cruised around until we a mak and a m1911 and some general items. I took her up to Cherno hitting a few barns on the way then into the industrial building and Cherno proper. Hit the Hospital the apartments and the tents. Left Cherno with one czech and a winchester, map, compass, matches, knife, watch, toolkit, entrapment tool, plenty of bloodpacks and morph. Headed to Balota , scored an akm for her plus some binocs. Being geared up enough we started the journey up to the the NW field.
I showed her a couple of places on the way, Zelenogorsk, Green mountain and the deer stands. Stopped at a few ponds and refilled bottles, killed some animals and showed her how to gut and cook meat. Never saw a heli wreck or any other players in the open country or the forests.
Skipped Stary as i generally get sniped there and wanted us to make the airfield. Coming at the field from the South we hit the bottom barracks , had to kill a couple of zeds which made me paranoid, i kept telling her this was where we would probably die so she was on edge. Grabbed an Alice and a Coyote in the Barracks plus i upgunned to an ak74.
We binoc'd the hangars and surrounding treeline for a while and ended up coming into the hangars form the treeline behind, proning all the way beside the first hangar waiting for a sniper to open up. Entered the first hangar, couple of mags for her AKM and nothing else. Proned along to two more hangars and still no more goodies. Coming in between the third and fourth hangar , crouching now. CRACK CRACK! Shit ! sniper! I yelled at her to run! Two more shots , i saw them hitting the hangar beside me just as i made it in. She tucked in one corner and i tucked in the other. Two zeds ran in as well so we plugged them and stayed right in the corner covering each other and just not moving.
There was and M14 sitting next to her but just out of reach as she could not get to it without being exposed. I told her we were going to make a run out her side, full boss run down in between the hangars and out into the forest behind the hangar out of his view. I said make sure you zig zag a bit and don't stop. First we both threw a smoke out onto the runway hoping to maybe divert the sniper or block a bit of his view..then we pissbolted around the corner ..halfway down the hangar before we heard another shot crack out, he was not on the ball or had thought we logged and was not looking at the hangar. So we made it out into the forest without getting hit ..adrenaline was pumping and we did not stop until we were at the far edge.of the forest.Yes, we made it! Killed a boar in celebration and had a cook out.
We trekked it up to Berezino via Dark Castle and the NE airfield. Scored a bicycle near the airfield and did some wheelies and circle work on it, pretty amusing little thing ,,crazy downhill fun. Left it propped on a fence near the airfield then came upon an ATV near a shack about 3 ks south of the airfield. Talk about excited lol! We both jumped on..drove for about 20 seconds and no fuel..booo.
Cruised into Berezino and topped up at the hospital with morph and blood, i had transfused her three times all up from zed attacks in our journey and she had done me a couple , she had nearly died once getting down to 3000 with broken legs , we were both a bit panicky while i was shooting the zeds off her in the dark that were having a munch. Had to drag her away into the bushes while she was unconscious.
So we are currently logged off at the top of the apartments in Berzino intending to check out the military tents next session and make our way down the coast back to our start point. I think all up we did about 18 hours of solid gamplay in four four hour sessions from Friday night until Sunday afternoon. No rushing, just journeying and checking everything out. The server we were on had between 15-40 people on it depending on the time and i reckon we only saw about 6 all up.
Good times just lucky for us that the NW airfield sniper was a bad shot.

How not to survive
Broke one of my golden DayZ rules..don't run around in the middle of fuckbutt nowhere shooting every moving thing like a happy gun retard when you are miles from a hospital and have no morphine.
Me and my other half were just West of NW airfield when we last logged. Our mate was all the way over above the NE airfield..so we decide to hook up in roughly the middle at Gvzodno We have empty water bottles and no other drink so decide to quickly hit Petrovka and see if we cant get a coke. I spot a deerstand on the way and head in..fairly open field so i pop one with the dmr, aggro a few of them , switch to my 1911 pop the rest. Head to the stand and hear another zed real close, turn around and smack..crack..broken bone etc. Cap him and crawl off to the deerstand , no joy, crawl to the tree line. 8000 odd blood, eat a steak.
Now i know chances of morph are sfa but my partner heads to Petrovka for a look , my mate is pissing himself laughing over ts because he knows i have noobed out. I ask if he has morph, yeh of course i have you tool he says..i will meet you in about 15-20.We are chatting while listening to her say no..no..nil anything. So we tell her to head down to Grishino and have a dekko (look).
My mate shouts out suddenly ..piss off you stupid zed ! ..bang bang bang..oh fuck off ! I ask what is goin' on (it was about 20 seconds of shooting and him carrying on like he was being ass raped. He tells me he came over a small rise straight into a stand and cleaned up five zeds ..last one busted his legs..*snicker* My partner is like ..well i cant shoot for shit- she really cant- but at least i can run..i tell my mate to sort himself and keep coming.
Then i hear..Ummmmmm dude..i got no fucking morph ! Wait..what? you said you had morph ?? Yeh well..i always do..but i aint got shit it seems ! It starts to rain..i lol. My partner says she is upping her search mission to include 2 x morphine and some painkillers because we are making her head hurt, she is heading towards Grishino. He is at Black Mountain..eastern side and i have now crawled to about a midpoint between Devils Castle and NW airfield..hoping i may get lucky and get a morph spawn there. Still it rains.
So we chit chat about how awesome our latest adventure is going and general bullshit..crawl crawl crawl. My partner heads to Devils Castle hoping for a random spawn. She gets hit by zeds ( she really is a shit shot ) and runs inside and bandages ..we ask if she is actually shooting at them or just pointing the gun and making pew pew noises..next thing we hear from her is... ohhh fuck! Ummm guys...i just fell off the stairs in the castle..wait up..i,m gonna make it.....'Parker is dead' comes up on screen..me and my mate hold back laughter pretty hopelessly. Yep... i'm dead she says..really ? ..we say.
She spawns at Kamenka. Destination Cherno hospital.
About 15 minutes later i make the Castle, my mate was crawling around Gvozdno when he decides to turn around and heads for Berezino lol..i start spam crouching the stairs into the castle ..find her body just inside..grab some food for my starving out char and then get comfy for the long wait.
Hey where are you girl..
Near the Cherno hospital
Parker is dead.
Where are you now?
Spawned at Elektro..
Sweet ..do a mad hospital run and head up..
Parker is dead
Outside Cherno
Parker is dead
Komarovo..running to Cherno..
Hey ! i found my other dead body !!
Parker is dead.
Ok i am at some place called ..oh fuck i didnt catch it...shovy.. soliy or something .wait up..i see a light..yay its a torch! Maybe they have morphine!!
Parker is dead
My mate makes Berezino..cant see shit because of the graphic glitches. He calls it for the night logged out in the treeline. I have spam crouched up and down the castle and i am now losing blood..wtf..my medical icon is flashing and i am at 6500 odd and dropping fast. I eat a tin of food, drink a coke, take some painkillers..nada. Last resort i eat my only antibiotics i have seen in ages..been hanging on to them for a long time since my last char got sick and i could not find any. Still losing blood..this whole time my partner is telling me to bandage..i am not bleeding though i say ! I bandage..blood loss stops. Fuck. She suggests spam crouching popped my broken bone out of my leg..
Parker is dead.
I aggro some zeds and go down shooting with my 1911.
I spawn at Komarovo..my partner spawns outside Cherno..i tell her to wait in a bush. I run through Cherno grab some beans and drink, not one morph in the tents or the hospital..all tins and bandages. We run to Elektro,,same..no morph,,tins ,bandages, epipens and painkillers. We head up to Devils Castle, stop near a Guglovo heli wreck and score an m14 aim and fnfal..run run run..finally make the Castle, both our dead chars are still there we grab our gear, nvgs,gps etc.
We log at the castle..still no morph. 6 hour and 20 minute session. After all of that we are about ten minutes away from our original starting spot..with the same gear
Was a pretty cool sesh with not really a lot happening.

Don't get attached to your gear
Don't get attached to your gear..don't get attached to your gear..don't get attached to your gear ! I generally do not, but then i got this guy who has been alive for a while , he went for his first bicycle ride, swapped it for an ATV someone left parked in a fence in the middle of buttfuck nowhere. He has journeyed to all four corners of the map with minimal gear. Just enough to hunt and eat and take out a few zeds here and there. We have built up a repetoire me and him, we understand each other, we know what we are doing.
He knows not to go near the bone breaking rabbits, he isn't greedy and doesn't lootcamp, he takes what is available and moves on. He spies on others from the bush and lets them go by in their own fashion. He avoids rocks and ladders if he can, he never swims past his waist. He has worked hard for his gear, he is a good sort.
So i trekked him to Berezino , time to trade in the AKM ,hopefully, and upgun a bit. Lying prone for a bit he spies out the military camp. All quiet..no zeds. Crouches in silently, first tent..AK74 Kobra, nice..drops the AKM. Next tent, GPS, lovely ..never had one in many months. Third tent ,bandages. Fourth tent..DMR ! Sweet, have not even seen one of these in all of the months i have been playing. He has to dump some gear to fit it into the Alice pack , shuffles some stuff around and is happy with the end result. Water bottle dmr and mags in the Alice, morph, ak mags, painkillers and beans on me.
He decides he would like a bigger pack, Berezino..might as well hit the shops and apartments and have a dekko (look). Before that he runs away into the forest line and susses out the new hardware, gps is cool, trendy even. Sitting in the treeline he pulls out his shiny new gun. 2 x 20 mag clips, more than enough. Sighting down the scope a new world is revealed from afar , what a cool toy. He spends ten minutes just looking around, changing position , sighting zeds. Lines one up and pops off a shot.Shot goes long, next shot is short, next round the zed collapses. Going to take some practice this thing, plenty of time for that. Ok time to go look for Coyote.
Down into Berezino again, into the apartments, nothing i need except some beans that i hoe down on and crack a can of coke, i fucking hate pepsi. Into the shops, apparently they were having a watch sale here because they are everywhere. I know there is a deerstand nearby so i head up to it , getting sleepy now and could not be bothered fucking around too much more so i take out the zeds around it and clamber up..could it be ..well fuck me, a Coyote backpack. I never have any joy at these deerstands and now i find a Coyote just when i need some more space.
I climb back down , run a short distance to a small bush, drop my Alice pack, Look around..i look down at the alice..wavering..fuck..i feel naked without it. Dash back full sprint to the deer stand , climb the ladder, look down at the Coyote....session lost...what ..no.. No...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. click click click click. Back to six launcher, load the server..wait wait wait wait wait..load load load load..sweat sweat sweat..stars..blackness..i'm back in. Still in the deerstand..no Coyote..no anything. Check my gear. No backpack. Poo. Climb down and run to my bush..no Alice pack. My eye twitches. I stay crouched for a minute ..he remembers the feel and weight of the DMR , the lovely view down the scope. He sniffles a bit , wipe his nose, crouch runs off into the treeline, avoids a rabbit and settles under a big fir tree.
A smile creases his face, then he laughs. Damn..so close. The adventure must continue though, he must find another DMR ..and a Coyote, and another water bottle. He pops his last coke for the night, mungs on some pasta and gets ready to rest. It starts to rain.
He knows not to go near the bone breaking rabbits, he isn't greedy and doesn't lootcamp, he takes what is available and moves on. He spies on others from the bush and lets them go by in their own fashion. He avoids rocks and ladders if he can, he never swims past his waist. He has worked hard for his gear, he is a good sort.
So i trekked him to Berezino , time to trade in the AKM ,hopefully, and upgun a bit. Lying prone for a bit he spies out the military camp. All quiet..no zeds. Crouches in silently, first tent..AK74 Kobra, nice..drops the AKM. Next tent, GPS, lovely ..never had one in many months. Third tent ,bandages. Fourth tent..DMR ! Sweet, have not even seen one of these in all of the months i have been playing. He has to dump some gear to fit it into the Alice pack , shuffles some stuff around and is happy with the end result. Water bottle dmr and mags in the Alice, morph, ak mags, painkillers and beans on me.
He decides he would like a bigger pack, Berezino..might as well hit the shops and apartments and have a dekko (look). Before that he runs away into the forest line and susses out the new hardware, gps is cool, trendy even. Sitting in the treeline he pulls out his shiny new gun. 2 x 20 mag clips, more than enough. Sighting down the scope a new world is revealed from afar , what a cool toy. He spends ten minutes just looking around, changing position , sighting zeds. Lines one up and pops off a shot.Shot goes long, next shot is short, next round the zed collapses. Going to take some practice this thing, plenty of time for that. Ok time to go look for Coyote.
Down into Berezino again, into the apartments, nothing i need except some beans that i hoe down on and crack a can of coke, i fucking hate pepsi.

moments combat loggers miss
Partner and i were running down from Novy to a bicycle spawn on the main road near Guglovo. Zeds spawned just near a few crappy buildings halfway between Guglovo and Novy , instead of taking them out we cut a right into a plowed dirt field to take a curve around them. Halfway across this field i hear this slight droning in my headphones..'shhhhh be quiet ..i think i can hear a vehicle ..' its about 1.25 am and cloudy, we both have nvgs though.
I crept up towards the road going from bush to bush when this motorbike comes roaring up the road with two dudes on it..she has moved back towards the treeline. I tell her to go prone behind a tree and scope them, but she had lost her DMR previously and only had an ak74 kob and m1911. No matter, i tell her if shit hits the fan just try and cover me as best you can and pissbolt for the full forest if you need too.
The bike dives off the road and heads into the field, they would have known we were there as they would have spotted the zeds when they came up the road. They head for me and my partner is like ' they are comin' straight at you ! ' i am crouched and have them scoped but i always have this stupid plan that we can try and hook up with other survivors, or just say g'day and head our seperate ways.. 50/50 it works..really.
So they must have spotted me scoping them from beside my small bit of scrub bush as they suddenly veer away full noise back to the road. I crouch follow and get to beside the road and prone in some bushes trying to spot them. The road here is higher than the field so i am fully covered on one side from being spotted. I assume they have thermal and tell my partner to try and stay as concealed as possible or work her way to the rise behind her so she get down the other side and be fully hidden. She says she is too scared too move lol..we can both hear th bike faintly, then it goes quiet.
We wait.
About ten seconds later shooting erupts and i can hear the thwip noise over ts of the bullets passing by her..'they are shooting at me fuk fuk fuk! ' i tell her to get up and boss it over the rise , i will see if i can spot them if they follow. Then she says she is hit and bleeding. So far they have fired at least ten or so times , she is still at about 6 blood and has made the rise and going down the other side. She tells me she sees a barn directly in front and is going in to bandage. I am just looking around waiting for someone to pop their head up somewhere.
She makes the barn and immediately has to cap a zed, and as she starts to bandage another zed is on her, broken legs, timer..dead. Fuk. I am wanting to bolt for the opposite forest but only have a general idea of where these two guys are, the forest i want to get to is a good 30-45 second sprint so chances of death are possibly high. Where i am is a nice little spot as like i said they could only see me from one side and since me and my partner where seperated by a couple of hundred metres i don't know if they would be looking for me there.
I decide to chance it and get up ready to piss bolt..then i am diconnected from game. Fuuuuck. Try three times to reconnect but my partner who has spawned at Drakon says i am getting some sort of error on her screen when i enter. Ten or so minutes later i finally get in after i do a steam verify (thanks guys who i asked last night for help) , i spawn at the same spot, go to the barn and grab her nvgs and gps and head down the road to meet her halfway. Every know and again i can hear the bike in the distance so i stick to the treeline all the way down and we meet up again jsut south of Staroye.
Was a good heart pumpin' little sesh even though i never fired a shot, and never saw the shooters after they booked it through the field on their bike. Just knowing that they were out there looking for us, possibly with thermals and that we were going to lose all of our shit and have to start afresh had me keyed up.
Flip side was when i got booted at least the guys would have seen my char name get booted because of the error code so they knew we did not log, obviously they would have notched up a kill as well. Because we don't log unless it is a teleport or the Alice message it just isn't a factor when it comes to our gameplay. In a shoot out or an ambush whether it is with suspected thermal equipped players, snipers or some crazy fuk with an axe, doesn't matter , stay and play. If we would log in situations like that the whole feel of the game and being in a tight situation where you more than likely do not have the upper hand becomes a moot point. All you are doing is hanging onto your gear and nothing more.

Dayz d'cer's ..or ..more on combat loggers
...exited the Cherno apartments with a bit of gear, helped a newbie get a backpack and an m1911, said goodbye then cruised around the back of the hospital and down the road to head for the fire station and a possible gun for myself
Coming over the brow of a small grassy bit of land opposite the fire station i see a guy with an alice pack ,crouch walking, ak up and pointed at some zeds meandering down the street. I have only my axe propped on my shoulder and sit there watching him moving slowly towards the station.
There is only two zeds in front of him and walking away so no aggro, i pop up a bit more and start crouch walking towards the station, we are probably 20 feet max from each other when he disappears. *plink* I stop..look around. Hmmm.back off and go prone still looking at the firestation and checking my six.
After about a minute or so i slowly approach the fire station door nearest the stairs , sure enough he has reappeared inside the station just behind the door..luckily i saw his ak poking out, ready to nail me. I back off , slowly and hear him repositioning inside the sound of his footsteps betraying him. I then run madly around the station aggroing a bunch of zeds, i get 7 or more behind me then run inside, he has bolted up the stairs by now. I coach them over to near the stairs then bolt out again heading for the supermarket.
About thirty seconds later i hear ak shots going off in the direction of the firestation. I smile and think, well now everyone knows where you are plus you are wasting your ammo.
I head for the hills with my newly found akm wondering if this idiot is still looking for me.

Heli thief
My partner and i are slummin' around at NE field , just got a Huey repaired but we needed some more juice so i told her to take our loaded up UAZ to Olsha hill and wait for me while i juiced it at the servo near Gorka. We had just got in a firefight at the field which is why i told her to go to Olsha with our wheels, so she had a good posi to spot any incoming while i was away.
So i juice it to half and return to Olsha where she is up the tower, i say..were you watching the field ? She says..yeh, sorta but up here is cool..so we stuff around and grab a couple of shots..
So i juice it to half and return to Olsha where she is up the tower, i say..were you watching the field ? She says..yeh, sorta but up here is cool..so we stuff around and grab a couple of shots..
.then i park the heli and we decide to go and stash the UAZ nearby and go for a Cherno/Elektro flyby. I jump in the UAZ and just as she is getting in i spot a dude,crouched and weapon aimed at us on the open grass in front of the heli, i floor it as she hits the passenger seat, drop first, we throw dust in his face and scream around the tower and down the hill out of his line of sight. She is like ' HE IS GONNA STEAL OUR FUCKING HELI !! I eject and bolt up just as we hear the engine whirring into life, i don't want to fuck the heli so i am doing my best impression of Usain Bolt trying to get to the side glass so i can pop this thief. Just as i get there and line him up the heli starts lifting, i get a couple of rounds off at his melon but the heli rises quickly and fucked if this dude is gettin' a free ride. we both start emptying magazines at him quicker than Lindsay Lohan can say ' yes your honour !' but he is gaining height and speed ..fucker is going to get away !
My partner shouts at me to get my sniper out, i swap out for my m40a3 but don't have enough time to drop items to make room for splitting a dmr mag to get ammo so i swap back, just then she yells out 'YEAH BITCH!' and i see the heli doing an inside loop followed by a sideways nose dive into a bunch of trees. My partner is off and sprinting like Woody spotting a twinkie towards the newly forming plume of smoke rising out of the ground...

Old mate lies bleeding and splayed out near the destroyed heli and supplies us with beans and coke for our troubles. So we lost da choppa , but we gained some beans, Fair enough trade.
forest chase and in game item giveaways...
Me and my mate had trekked up above Krasno airfield and logged in the forest. I log in next session by myself and go yo collect some firewood so i can get my blood up with a nice cooked steak. I heard some noises and think nothing of it, it is just the in game effects..then i hear booloolololololoiiiilooo ! boolololol ! bololololo ! ..i am like wtf ?? Then a voice says .. ' What are you doing in our forest ? Get out now ! ' I leave my fire and start running, bullets zip around me and i hear another voice go ' ..hey look dudes..a fucking fire ! ' then another guy making more weird animal noise, so, at least three guys.
I get chased and shot at for a couple of minutes by this bunch of guys, looking back over my shoulder i spot two of them every now and again but cannot see the third. I end up running down into a bit of a ditch, take a turn and dive under a fir tree. Bullets smack about me again so one of them has seen, i am up and running again, zigzagging and trying to keep the trees between me and them. This time i do not stop, i just keep running in the general direction of Berezino.
I come to an open field but do not stop, sprint across a few hundred metres of open ground and then take cover on the other side and turn and look for my pursuers. Waiting five minutes i see nothing so i make a move further in and start looping back up towards where they initially found me. About halfway back i stumble across a tent, sweet ! Inside the tent.. 3 nvgs, 3 gps and two rangefinders, dmr plus ammo as well as assorted other assault guns, food and drink,
I eat all of the food, smash down the drink and take the nvg's, gps's , rangefinder's and DMR. What i still do not have is a Coyote backpack so i go to the dayZ forums and see if i can solve that with my new found loot in way of trade. COYOTE NEEDED, NVGS ETC UP FOR GRABS ! COME ON DOWN !! A heap of people pm me and we organise meeting points and jump into game.
NFK and Femme Fatale ran to our prearranged meeting spot meeting spot West of Berezino and i lose connection, fuck, could not get into any servers, six launcher crash, internet died. wtf. Ended up everytime i joined a server my net would drop out just as i got setup completed screen, weird as. Stuffed around for two hours with no joy and ended up running with my phone as a hot spot long enough to tell them what the deal is. I keep the promised goodies for Femme and NFK who went to the trouble to run from Kamenka (Femme) and North of Krasno airfield for NFK and tell them i will get back to them asap.
After much fucking around i end up swapping out my modem for a new one as it had totally failed , a trip to the store and back and we arrange another meeting near Bor. I run down and wait, Femme and i posting in pms on the forum updating where we are and then i finally spot her just on the edge of the town..

We had a chat for a while and i gave her a gps, rangefinder and nvg's then we went on our way, last i saw of her she was axing zeds mightily. Unfortunately i never ended up meeting with NFK so was a bit disappointing and i ended up heading down to the coast and gave the remaining gear away to a new spawn n the beach who was elated at his score :)
Elektro madness
Haven't laughed so much in game for a while .. my mate and i spawned on opposite sides of Elektro and organised to meet at the church. After aggroing one zed i up and bolted to the church, grabbed a revolver , shot 6 or 7 , bandaged myself , and then we headed for the pub/shop area.
There were guns going off everywhere , shotties, winnies and enfields , zeds were stacked up at the door to the shops being blasted by whoever was inside..some dude was endlessly rolling down the street, torch in hand, avoiding getting shot by another guy with a shottie standing over him and pumping rounds into the ground all around him, still another guy was crawling on the other side of the street trying to avoid everyone and everything, just hoping not to be noticed.
Random zeds were running all over the joint, a guy bolted past me with a few on his six, torch in hand shouting out ' The apocalypse !! The apocalypse is upon us !!! ' .. I watched all of this from the pub for about thirty seconds pissing myself laughing, it was like the first 10 minutes or so after an actual zed outbreak had happened...total and utter chaos.

Racing the teleport clock...
Teleported , ,my dude had done the hard yards and made it up to Zeleniogorsk, grabbed everything he needed to survive with minimal or no contact needed with other survivors. Matches, hatchet, knife, primary, secondary and of course , morphine.
A quick dash inside the shops at Zeleno fetched me an Alice pack and some much needed beans that i scoffed immediately and downed with a hot can of apocalyptic coke. Just as i was licking my spork..whooosh..teleported to the beach near Elektro with about ten or twelve other dudes..someone crying out Friendly! Friendly ! I heard shots, broken legs, grabbed a quick screenie of who was in game then escape, abort, disconnect! Waited about 15 minutes then logged in again, bleeding, broken leg, need painkillers, knock out timer. I wondered if my guy could beat the dayz of our lives clock and bandage himself in time....

So cheering , survival, just. He is a true champion, kept my loot ...this guy is on his second life. Currently passing out every thirty seconds or so but i am on my way to Castle Rog first to grab some beans, hoping to see a boar on the way and have a cookout.
A bandit, axe guy, hero, camo man... and a short journey
Logged in, 30 people in game, vet server. My plan was to simply get across too Skalisty and log out where our group would meet up for tomorrow nights session. Being Dayz and being the proud owner of a can of Dew, shit was to go six ways from Sunday very quickly.
I started heading down the hill just on the mainland opposite Skalisty, heard some shots in the distance so i proned and reversed under a tree to have a look around. Spotted a guy shooting down the road, probably at zeds seeing as how his primary was shouldered and he was using a mak. Instakilled by the tree. Fuck the Dew.
New plan, get to my dead dude and get that fucking Dew.
Spawn at Komarovo, run to small port buildings and score an axe. Head for the military/hospital camp near Balota..this is where the fun starts. I cruise up to the outside of the wire and start axing zeds , this wookie dude pops up with an m4a1/a3 ? cco and says hi, i wait for the shot but nothing, he pops the zeds, i say thanks then he jumps the wall and bandages me. Sweet. I vault in and he says here take this, i see mags on the ground so pick up, its an m9 sd. Cool as, i say thanks and then he says , can you see it, i see nothing, say no, thinking he must have dropped something else, food or bandages or whatever. Then he says..can you see the box ? I think great..then zap. Tele'd . water.

Respawn at Komarovo. Bandit runs past me so i give chase saying hey dude..where are you in such a rush to ?
I look to my right and see another guy with an axe, survivor gear on. He takes out some zeds and says g'day..
the bandit then runs up and is saying 'kill me man..kill me ! '. Axe guy is trying to kill another zed when he swipes the bandit by mistake. He is like 'shit!' I laugh and tell him he wanted to die so its all good.
I ask if i can hang with him and we run together chatting for a bit, he tells me he is from Maryland, we talk about duping and thank fuck the tents are working now and whatnot.
We head in to find me some axe action , which i find in a port building , we take out some zeds and head outside then run into another bandit then Camo guy immediately after..
Camo guy being gunned up takes out our increasing zed problem..
i bandage and we all head out for Balota, Bandit boy still unarmed, possibly a good thing.
I am marvelling at the fact we are all running together and rather enjoying myself lol. Camo guy keeps looking suspiciously over his shoulder at my axe and i cannot help but laugh a little bit at our weird little coastal group.
We make the outskirts of Balota...
We make the outskirts of Balota...
..and i am Mike Tyson'd , Camo man comes to the rescue and bandages, over direct its a bit panicky but very efficient and i am epi penned and on my feet in no time.
We check everywhere, axe man scores an akm but i don't think he gets any ammo, hangars are empty.
Bandit boy is asking for an axe..but the zeds attack again so axeman has no time to drop it , i manage to bandage Bandit boy who is hit and bleeding, Camo man takes out the zeds. Notice bandit boy is now in survivor suit so he must have penned me ?
Just as we all group up shots ring out , full auto pings all around us and we group behind a trashed vehicle..
clearly the shooter has not met Camo man and does not know rule 1..don't fuck with Camo man. I volunteer to run out as bait and sprint into the open, shots are exchanged..
He now understands rule 1. I score a mak and 5 mags and we head for the tents. Camo man and axe man spot a dude in the distance down the road, then another with him. We hold our ground and wait..start hearing 'friendly incoming..friendly incoming' ..
Ok, looks like our group is either getting bigger or its gonna be a shoot out, they run up and stop in he middle of our group..another bandit and a weird white skinned dude.
Then it happens..
script kiddies..and of course..
So the group is dispersed to all spawn points of the coast, boo. I end up at Elektro and see a guy running with a flashlight in hand , zeds on his tail, he sees me and says ' follow me..i am detaining you, be warned.. i have a flashlight !' i say 'ok man, just be careful with that thing ! ' and we run into the church. Apparently i am bleeding, he swears he is not giving me fellatio and drops down and bandages. I tell him there is what appears to be a satchel charge placed behind him..
Looking around we notice charges in every corner so we gtfo. I shout out a thanks and head for Cherno looking for any sign of Axeman, Camo man and Bandit boy . On the outskirts i hear a heli so run in to investigate, a chopper is doing laps of the city and i can hear machine gun fire.
I see what may possibly be Bandit boy ahead so i run up to him, he has an lmg of some sort and is popping rounds at the chopper..he says ' hi again dude, i don't want these guys plopping any more crates around as the server is overloaded with weapons.. '
I hang back and watch the action..
Then another bandit pops in and starts saying to Bandit boy..what are you doing man ? why are you doing this ? Bandit boy keeps shooting at the chopper..
and inevitably..
Respawn at Cherno ..
Grab the only supplies i will more than likely need..
hit the firestation and see what may possibly be an old friend of mine..
and Bandit boy ?
I manage to grab a g17 in the station and get an m1911 plus ammo at the shops that i place in my backpack and then an axe on the outskirts. I head out to attempt to get to my original dead body and that can of Dew. Spot a weaponless hero skin running along the beach and call out to him, he is hesitant and keeps his distance, damn axe.
I stash my axe and tell him i have a gun he can use if he wants, then place it down on the road with three mags and back off. He grabs it then salutes, i give him a quick salute in return and we head off in opposite directions.
Then boo..
So stuff knows what that is ..overhacked server lol ? Can't know, but people were being kicked constantly as well as 10-15 deaths popping up at a time. The 15-20 minutes us four different skinned chars cruised together was pretty cool and so was only being shot at by one other guy the whole time, felt like it was many many months ago until the scriptees ruined the fun.
Now, i wonder if i can rejoin and get my death dealing Dew.

Curse of the Dew
So i had this plan after scoring a can of Dew at Stary. Basically we were going to alternate the Dew between our group of three and keep it alive for as long as we could. The Dew carrier always staying out of danger as we traversed the map, to make it a decent challenge we were going to hit all of the high pvp spots and not just loiter in the woods killing beasts to survive.
So of course, shit went south straight up. My partner had to come from Kamenka to join us at our camp so we could start off on the journey as a group. My mate was loading in while i was waiting near base camp at Novy Sobor. He should have appeared near me as we both logged at camp earlier. He had to bail out as he was stuck at the loading screen for over five minutes on two occasions and then next attempt he spawns at Elektro with no gear. Wtf, I check and his body has appeared at our camp dead. So semi sweet, he starts running up. I go for a quick looksee to Stary and surprise surprise a bike is there. Jump on and head down to pick them up one by one.
My partner tells me she has found a pushy at the lighthouse so its all good, she is pedallin' up. Things are looking good. Then my mate says he has just been hit by a zed when he proned instead of running..yeh he is a tool..and he has broken legs. Just near Mogilevka. I go find him, morphine, bloodbag, pick him up and head back to the camp. My game starts lagging like fuck, 5-7 second pauses and 1-2 seconds of movement.So basically unplayable. I tell him i need to get out and possibly restart, the game then totally freezes and i cannot do anything. The bike is at least stopped by this stage and i have to abort
Spawn in again and i am at Krutoy Cap, miles away, but i still have my gear ! ..still have the Dew..sweet, my m14 and a couple of mags, bandage, morph, bloodpack and a G17 with no ammo..weird, i had like 6 mags, but whatever. Check my m4a1cco and it also has no mags, must have glitched right ?
So anyway my partner has got lost and is somewhere , we think, north of Rogovo..we are waiting for her to find a sign. My mate is now on his way down to get me on the bike. I am running inland through coastal forest and decide to head into the barn at the three valleys intersection to grab a pepsi or coke. Run inside..pepsi and pasta..sweet as bro ! Head out and hear a shot ring out behind me. Lee Enfield..start ziggin and zaggin across the road and through the bushes up the hill. Four more shots but i cannot spot the shooter, the last two shots are definitely a bit further away though.
I run right over the top of the hill then as soon as i am below the crest i turn left at full sprint for about 30 seconds. I get behind a tree, crouch and pull out the M14, start scoping along the top of the hill waiting to see if old mate is going to come over the top. I start backing up slowly while scoping , get stuck on something, a tree i think, move right a bit..then i hear that sliding noise, see some big rocks on my left..slide slide..snap arrghhh..broken bones, fall into the Quarry that i have nicely reversed into and die.
Fuck.
I tell the crew what has happened ..my mate starts riding full tilt to my body to save the Dew, my partner has worked out she is at Kabanino and is all good heading for camp , we tell her to just keep on pedalling and wait for us... I respWawn at Kamenka..fucking Kamenka. Things slowly go even further downhill from here. My mate runs into the back of a truck at Staroye and is fucked up and dies while knocked out. My partner then has to leave as it is nearly 2 am, we had been to a concert earlier in the night and are pretty flogged, but hey it was Apocalyptica so it fucking rocked.
I keep running from Kamenka and my mate gets the massive loading screen again and after a few minutes says fuck this and calls it quits so i am on my own. Thanks pal whatever ..i am determined to get that fucking Dew.
Elektro via Cherno and Balota, grab a drink and a can of food, score an M4A1 CCO on the top floor of the firestation. Never found one of those there before, just one mag though. I meet a dude at the church, i give him the old Q E dance and he follows. He scores an enfield in the pub ...and doesn't shoot me, possibly he was freaked out because i never shot him originally. We move across the road and he heads upstairs in the school/office block.
While i cover the bottom floor, i see a tent just poking out of the wall, another M4A1 CCO with one mag. Fuck me. He comes down with an Alice pack on and i lead him to the tent, he takes the gun and we head to the shops, grab some beanz and a coke and i notice he has split the scene. I see him once more about a minute later, we run past each other near the house leading up to the power station, he has a bunch of zeds on him that tag onto me and i lead them out of Elektro, up the hill and start the home run for my corpse.
After much running i make it to the top of the Quarry, about 10 metres away from where i had slipped and died. Thank fuck i think. nearly 3 am now. I run down the side of the quarry carefully and around to where i can enter, i move inside and as i am approaching my body and hear the distinct sound of flies a message pops up on screen..
Session lost.
WTF ? I check six and no servers will load, close it, reopen. Nothing. Open the net..you are being redirected to your broadband hompage..i have run out of net (prepaid broadband) Really ? Now ? Not five minutes later so i could have got the Dew... Fuck me.
Too much shit went wrong for this to be the standard dayz/arma fuckups.
The Dew.
We did not even get underway on our planned journey, we did not even get to meet up.
The Dew.
It only takes, it does not give. Next can i get i am drinking it. Even if i am not thirsty.

Dear Teleporter
Thank you ever so muchly for the instant lift through space and time. I was up near Novy after having just marked a heli wreck on the map that had a legit m107 and DMR spawn. In fact it is the first m107 spawn i have seen, so i was of course slighty chuffed. Not having had my DMR for a few days i quickly swapped out my m14 and crouched out of there with a large grin. Heading up to Stary to grab a drink i was shot at near the tents by some rough bush bastard with a winchester, deciding to give him a break i turned and legged it to the forest south of Stary working my way down so i could spy on the heli.
Now sitting under a tree in the rain at about 3 am in game time i wondered if anyone would come and investigate, my plan being to shoot the zeds after i saw them spawn and had ascertained where the other guy was.. possibly freak them out a bit. The downside of my whole operation was that my partner was (once again) lost somewhere in ... 'a place with lots of trees' .Whilst talking to her, listening to the breezy rain swishing through the trees and taking in all concealing positions around the heli..i noticed that all of sudden i was magically on a surf swept beach with a severe lack of forest and heli crashes.
Hearing a rather nasty jarring crack noise and slumping to the ground i heard my partner say..' hey..sweeeeet, i'm on the beach ! Is that you ? ' Seeing briefly through a haze i did indeed notice some other lumpy shapes nearby that may or may not have been my partner. As i watched the you are dead screen pop up, i smiled and thought, ahhhh the journey begins again, and this time she will not get lost.
Thankyou for bringing us closer together but if you are going to warp us to a romantic spot like a moonlit beach i would suggest that you use some forward planning and at least provide some deckchairs, not those cheap ones either, you know the old school ones from the '30's that used to line the Pas de Calais ? Yep..those. aaand if it is not too much trouble i would also request a handbag with a map and compass for my partner, she likes the funky small bags that only retain 9000 receipts and lip balm.
...one more thing, can you change the sign for Elektro to read in english ? She says she cannot read backwards numbers and letters that look like Eifel Towers very well yet.

the flies of death...
Another session in dayz with many ups and downs, US352, 25-30 people on, daylight. My mate has got all jumpy as he is ( was.. *snicker*) at 33 dayz alive. We jumped on, i was near Balota on the hill as i had been stalking two snipers the previous night ( never got them) and he was at Skalisty. We decided to work our way along the coast and meet east of Cherno.
I make it to the military tents..bang bang dead. Never even saw him. He swims over while i load back in. Spawn West of Cherno and i make it to the hospital, grab some morph when a chick ( 40 year old guy with no clothes on and eating cheetos) spots me, I am crouched and say hey , whats up ? This gravelly voice goes 'heeeeey,,hey, come here'. I just blankly stare from about 2 metres..yeh right dude. You want my bandage that bad, you are going to have to come and get it..Bang bang i'm dead, enfield in face. That was imaginative. Bzzzzzz flies.
Spawn at Elektro, my mate is coming through Kamyshovo. Run to the firestation, fly blown place it is, score an empty akm. From the top of the station i spot a bandit crawling near the shops and keep tabs on him, my mate makes the outside of Elektro. I call out to him where the bandit is while he stalks him. He takes a shot and misses and the bandit bolts into the church. Zeds follow and the bandit caps them at the doorway, my mate waits a few seconds then leans in and pops him. Sweet. I head down.
I am grabbing the bandits gear when my mate shouts out that he is being shot. Bam , he is dead. I turn having grabbed an enfield but have not reloaded and see a chick shooting from the left side of the church near a pew (pew pew) i am hit and bolt for the door reloading just making it around the corner when i am taken down. Flies.
Spawn down the beach from Elektro while my mate is stuck at loading. I make it back to the church and get inside, both our bodies are gone but there is a winnie on the floor near the bandit , i grab it then hear footsteps, i look around and a crazy axe fucker is on me and swinging, broken legs, i get a shot off but miss and then i am dead...bUZZZZzzzzzzz.
Spawn at the East of Cherno. Make it to the barn on the outskirts and grab an axe, head outside and there is a car parked nearby, i zoom in..dude just getting out of it in camo clothes with an akm. He say's hi , we talk briefly and he lays down an akm and two mags for me then asks if i want the car. I say sure and drive off happy with my new shiny object. I knew giving away that tractor and m1911 to a random in another session would come back to me.
My mate is still cut over losing his best char to date and wanting revenge, i tell him we have wheels and we can drive back to Elektro if he wants. He is livid and not enjoying my suppressed laughter. He spawns West of Komarovo so i head down to pick him up. Just past the military tents near Balota i hear someone over direct and look around. On my right is a bike and to the left of me a hilux has pulled up alongside. They tell me to pull over, i think, meh..why not. So i pull up and they flank me. He is pointing an m107 at me and says "get out of the car , lay down and drop your weapon!" i get out and drop the akm then lay down. He pops a round into the ground which of course gets zeds inbound, his mate takes them out and then they order me onto the bike.
I jump on the back and say ok..what now dudes ? They ask where i am from and we engage in some small talk, chit chatter shit dont' matter type stuff. The guy walking around gets in my wheels and drives them to the side of the road then unloads into it, destroying my ride.
Fuckers.
The dude on the bike takes me for a quick lap up and down the road poppin' some monos and then parks us back up next to his mate and my burning car, i think we are ready to go to wherever the hell they are planning to take my sorry ass but instead, his mate pops me one. I get off the bike bleeding and broken ..zeds start attacking again so i start bandaging in the middle of the road. The dude is shouting something at me but i can't understand him, then he walks up, close range... caps me in the head. Maybe my bandaging skills pissed him off.
Is that flies i hear ?
Spawn at Elektro. My mate who has been hitting up some chick on facebook decides he has a better chance of getting some kicks there so he bails and i think ok, i will call it a night as well. Just before i log i see i am up over the ocean and falling, i hit the ocean and hear flies. THE FLIES !!

M14 forest guy..
So there i am running down from Berezino with an akm to meet a chap near Prig, we were going to go old skool and venture up to the airfield. Jogging along South west of Dolina in the middle of the forest, wondering if i should have a drink or not and what the possibilities of finding some nvg's at the field were.. a fucking shot rings out, dmr i think..i actually shit.bricks. Start running like a madman , dodging , scooting around trees, full panic mode. All i had was an akm and two mags, couple more shots , more dodging, i turn and do a semi circular hip firing spray and pray on full auto, turn and run again. His bullets are close, cracking past me and some i see kicking up dust in front off and beside me. My dude is panting and breathing hard. Panick icon up.
My hands were solid and i am doing ok dodging his fire but i was still freaking out, i dived around some firs and see a dirt road, the ground dropping away on the other side, i run over the road and down behind some more trees , more dmr shots, more spray and pray, i'm hit now and bleeding like a bitch, screen graying out. I run a half loop around a clump of compact firs and dive under them, hoping i have misled him and he has lost me. Just when i think of bandaging i hear footsteps and a voice over direct saying " DON'T FUCKING MOVE IF YOU WANT TO LIVE! DONT FUCKING MOVE !" So now my hands are shaking..fucking adrenaline man ! '"What the fuck are you doing out here in the middle of nowhere !? " I tell him i am running down to meet a mate and i need to bandage..real bad. my screen is grey , my char is pumping and shaking.
He says hold up, don;t move and then bandages me and gives me a blood pack, i notice he has been poppin' at me with an m14. Once i am blooded and bandaged i see he is a bit skittery because i still have my akm out when i stand up, he is standing off to the side of me, constantly moving. We chat a bit and he goes.." woah, so is that the hero skin ? " i tell him yes it is, took some earning too .. he says he can never quite get it , we decide to hook up and run down to Prig together and are still talking when a bunch of silenced shots breaks out through the trees beside us. M14 guy moves and starts shooting as i run around the trees to flank and sure enough M14 guy has nailed him. Dude called Ryan, urban turban, is laying dead on the ground. M4a1ccosd ,stanag sd and a patrol pack, i call hacker, teleported on us and shot like a noob ( or me when i was panicking )
Old mate says more than likely and then to confirm it i see a ghillie guy appear about fifteen feet away , before i even get to shoot i am hit and on the ground. Last thing i hear is m14 guy saying " you want some of this pal ! you want some you fucking hacker !!! " and then i am dead.
Well unfortunately M14 guy didn't get him the second time around. I respawned at Solnichniy, ran up to our bodies , guestimated my scared run and reran my panicky footsteps. After a quick search i run smack bang ran into flies. Three bodies, me, the hacker and old mate with his m14. I didn't check his name which i am annoyed at as i would have liked to have known who the dude was that made me shit bricks but then bandaged and blooded me in the middle of nowhere. When i checked my body i now also had a laser designator and a heap of other stuff i had never had . all placed in my dead chars backpack. I probably should have hidden them all but i just marked them on the map so maybe old mate could come and get his gear, i grabbed my gear and waited in the general area for another twenty or so minutes but never saw M14 guy again.
M14 guy, if you read this , thanks for the scare and cheers for the fixup Pity we never got to hook up and run together.

" i tell him yes it is, took some earning too .. he says he can never quite get it , we decide to hook up and run down to Prig together and are still talking when a bunch of silenced shots breaks out through the trees beside us. M14 guy moves and starts shooting as i run around the trees to flank and sure enough M14 guy has nailed him. Dude called Ryan, urban turban, is laying dead on the ground. M4a1ccosd ,stanag sd and a patrol pack, i call hacker, teleported on us and shot like a noob ( or me when i was panicking )
Old mate says more than likely and then to confirm it i see a ghillie guy appear about fifteen feet away , before i even get to shoot i am hit and on the ground. Last thing i hear is m14 guy saying " you want some of this pal ! you want some you fucking hacker !!! " and then i am dead.
Well unfortunately M14 guy didn't get him the second time around. I respawned at Solnichniy, ran up to our bodies , guestimated my scared run and reran my panicky footsteps. After a quick search i run smack bang ran into flies. Three bodies, me, the hacker and old mate with his m14. I didn't check his name which i am annoyed at as i would have liked to have known who the dude was that made me shit bricks but then bandaged and blooded me in the middle of nowhere. When i checked my body i now also had a laser designator and a heap of other stuff i had never had . all placed in my dead chars backpack. I probably should have hidden them all but i just marked them on the map so maybe old mate could come and get his gear, i grabbed my gear and waited in the general area for another twenty or so minutes but never saw M14 guy again.
M14 guy, if you read this , thanks for the scare and cheers for the fixup Pity we never got to hook up and run together.
OLD MATE DAVEJOHNNO..
Poor DaveJohhno, all he wanted was to investigate a heli wreck. All i wanted was his DMR.
We both got what we wanted...in a fashion.
I investigated the heli wreck and found nothing but tin cans and epipens thus saving DaveJohhno supreme disappointment..and i got his DMR. Win win situation. Being the nice guy i left my M24 in his backpack and placed a marker on the map so he could go back and loot himself near Vybor.

DaveJohhno..next time when you are approaching a heli wreck , keep doing what you were doing and axe those fuckers, as soon as you pulled that DMR and started shooting them, not only did you call attention to yourself and anyone else in the area..me..but you went from being someone i considered a comical relief to a very real threat. It was rather amusing watching you running in a circle in a field axing zeds and, as i nestled the M24 kevlar and fibreglass reinforced polymer foam stock against my shoulder and eased the trigger to send a 173 grain round on a one way trip to your forehead at 786 metres per second, i did have a moment of regret. I washed that regret down with a coke and then in a small fit of depression i cooked and ate some of the steaks i grabbed out of your alice pack. What were you doing all the way out there without any matches Dave ?
Always take a hatchet to a gun party...
the Annoying sniper
I have this one char who is going on a few months now, trying to keep him alive until standalone..anyway..he gets bored. Waltzing around leaving Vybor and i hear a chopper, being in an open field i leg it to the small rise from where you can see Lopatino. The Huey heads in on my left, not noticing the pile of Zeds i spawned at Vybor and puts it down on the other side of the rise. As i make it over the rise i see a guy get out, dust clouds obscuring him and his heli as i peek out from behind a tree.
There is a plane crash he is investigating for med supplies about thirty metres away from where he landed and he is just going about his business so i swap out my M4A3CC0 for my M40A3 sniper, dial in 400 metres and sight him up..he looks so unworried through my scope. I drop down to his guts and slowly squeeze... BLAM !
Blood spurts and he gets up from his looting position and runs for da chopper, betcha that got his heart rate going. I watch him bandage on the far side of the chopper and then he is in and lifts up and heads North. I am up and running , destination airfield. A couple of minutes later i come in on from the middle southern side..i have heard Huey lewis fapping around in the distance so i wait for him to show himself. Sure enough he comes in and hovers around near the firestation and barracks, I set for 300 metres and wait.
He puts down, takes out a few zeds and then heads into the barracks with a couple in tow. I focus on the door of the barracks , watch a couple of zeds fall..wait...wait...movement. He exits the barracks and moves to da chopper, crouches at the tail. I line up his guts again..squeeze..BLAM! Blood spurts, he runs into the barracks no doubt to bandage. I let him do his thing and head for a UAZ i passed in the trees outside of the field, jump in, red fuel state so i decide to head for Zeleno and juice her up.
At Zeleno servo i pile drive the car into a bowser and nearly wreck the motor so after rejuicing it i head down to loot the small industrial area. When i am halfway across the open field i hear old mate Huey ..fap fap fap fap..and hide in a bush. Zeds everywhere. This guy must think he has been spawning the zeds because he shows no caution and lands near the back door of the shops, I make it up to the wall with a bunch of aggro on me, play ring around the rosey with two zeds and lose them when i move one foot behind a leaf. No need for the sniper this time, i peer in the shops from my vantage point and see him running around inside, possibly eating food to replenish his low blood from being shot by some asshole sniper...
Just as he exits i put a burst of stanag rounds near him. he turns and bolts back inside, i shoot the aggro zeds who have refound me, put another burst at the back door of the shops and run around so i can see the front shop window. Swap to my sniper and put a random two rounds through the front glass, run back around the rear and put another burst at the door with the CC0 then leg it down to loot my industrial.
About ten minutes later i hear the chopper fire up and head off in an easterly direction. I jump in my UAZ with dodgy motor and head East.
