So I was at the northern forest just outside of Cherno in the forest sniping away the other night with my CZ550 and logged off after killing one helpless nooby on the medical field tent roofs. Sorry guy, just couldn't resist.
Tonight as soon as I spawned I saw two survivors running east just below the treeline not 15 feet away from me. They ran basically right in front of me as I spawned. Naturally I freaked the fuck out but praise the bandit god they weren't paying full attention and didn't see me right above them. So I run with them in their direction, just a little bit up the hill and with some trees to hide me. I follow them from a distance (50m) for a short bit, lose track of them in the forest and hear a gun shot. At this point I think I'm totally boned but when I find them I see three of them now, with a recently shot sheep right beside them.
They've stopped moving which is basically every snipers dream, two females (one with aviators) and a male. The male is standing there doing nothing, one female is crouched looking around and the other is bandaging herself. I take my shot, bullet lands right in the guys face and he dies instantly. The one girl looking around books it immediately, the other is still bandaging herself while looking around everywhere. I shoot her, she falls to the ground. I take another shot, miss, take another, she's a goner. I run after the other girl. I didn't see what gun she had but didn't expect much. As I'm running after her general direction I get hit, lose 3k blood and bleeding but no broken bones or pain. Totally did not expect her to fight back so I run away, bandage the wound and continue the hunt.
At this time my internet disconnects and I'm frantically trying to log back in, hoping my character didn't get killed while I dc'd. I come back and try to find her. After a few minutes of re-enacting predator with her I get the drop on her only to once again lose connection. Fast forward a couple minutes and I'm back on, eager to try and finish this fight. I see the two bodies of her friend and figure she is most likely camping those bodies to protect them/wait for me to loot them so I run up the hill and try to get a good view. And lo and behold twenty feet below me hidden by a bush I see her in prone aiming right at the bodies. I take a shot and she's dead. JUST as I get to her body I see that her female friend with aviators has made it back here with no weapons. I take a shot at her with my CZ but miss and she runs away. I take her morphine, bandages and painkillers and toolbox and bury her body. Not too sure why I buried her body.. I went to the other bodies but was still having connection issues and the one aviator female was still running around somewhere so I decided to just run the hell away and log off.
Btw they all had semi automatic guns, fully geared (maps, compasses, toolkits on every one of them) and two out of three of them can get their stuff back since I left their bodies. Not sure if they were bandits because I still only have 8 murders and zero bandit kills but when I looked at their bodies I could hear their heartbeat pump really really fast.
tl;dr: Being a bandit is fun.
Sweet story lol. All you people camping the main towns lol. Don't think I seen you in the TS channel before so I'll make sure I stay clear of that spot for a little while lol. I have CZ aswell and want to do some camping but looting atm.
Do you find that you usually have to aim lower than your target with the CZ basically placing the Chevron around the feet or ankles?
I was doing some practicing on zombies and animals messing with Zeroing and usually I have to aim slightly lower for a direct or headshot

I'm livid. I got randomly spawned in the wilderness before the servers went down, now I'm stuck and can't go heli hunting :-(

Just wanted to say thanks to whoever shot me in the face while I was standing at the ladder to the deer stand. I guess it's my fault for sprinting up and trying to climb into an occupied deerstand. Derp.

This is so lame, i guess some hackers are pissed off from being banned.

Last night I went on an epic adventure.
First up was meeting up with my usual group of Jochan and Maxster. The night before I had logged off southwest of Black Mountain after a brief firefight with two people (I killed one and the other server hopped to get the drop on me, but when I had repositioned he gave up and left, and it was late so I disconnected and went to bed). Jochan and Max were raiding the east cities and were in Krazno at the time, so I met up with them there. After raiding for a bit we head back to camp to drop off loot and regear, planning to hit NWAF.
Somewhere along the way we decide to hit Devil's Castle first, and that we should go around the north side of Gvozdno as there's a decent chance there's some camps up in the forest there. In the forest just north of the town we spot a pair of guys on an ATV powering through the woods. We take a couple shots but they veer north down a hill and we lose them. We decided that it'd be best to high tail it west since we don't really know the area and they probably live around there.
As we pass Gvozdno abstract turns up and we decide to meet up. The server is lagging like a mighty beast and half the people are on stupidly desynced time (I was at 4:30pm when server time was 2:15am). So the server restarts!
Now we all immediately decide to head south to Stary to look for heli crash sites since there are about 4000000 possible spawns down there. We meet up with Dark briefly and there's some confusion about my flashlight not being on for me or anyone in my group, but on for Dark (stupid flashlight), which nearly gets me shot in the face.
Dark moves on to refuel his dirtbike with awesome flame decals and we meet up with abstract. Then we split up. I go around the fields looking for heli spawns while the three of them raid Stary. I find no spawns so I go meet up with them again, and they've found very little. We decide to resume the original plan and go to NWAF, coming in from the east by way of Grishino.
I head to provide overwatch with my CZ while the rest of my group heads in. At this point we join forces with Dark and his partner, although I haven't seen them in hours. Dark is on overwatch from different a place while the rest of our guys looted the airfield. Dark called a spawn at southern barracks, outside all of our spawn ranges. We scanned and I eventually found a guy in a ghillie suit. Promptly took him out with 2 shots from my CZ. While guiding one guy to the corpse for loot retrieval someone else ran to the airfield with a horde and tried to hide inside the fire station. We immediately switched focus and moved in. After 10 minutes of positioning our raid team moves in to find a corpse and a large number of zombies.
Not much happens for a while and we are getting cold because it's been raining for basically the entire time. After a bit of trouble with some broken bones and bleeding, we move to the forest and get a fire going to heat up. Jochan and Max, being in Europe, decide to go to sleep now and log (something like 2am for them?). Dark's partner also logs, so now it's just me, Dark, and abstract (who I completely forgot about).
Dark decides to go looking for more helis and I call dibs on the other seat on the dirt bike. abstract goes and does something else now. Dark and I roam around the fields from Vybor to east of Stary...and nothing.
During this time another pair of TL guys have found something like 40 heli spawns and we hate them with a fiery passion. Dark also kills another TL guy because he didn't dance. When he finds out we recover most of his stuff and decide to take it to him. After a bit more useless roaming we see about a dozen people die inside 45 seconds, so Dark decides to restart again (after doing admin-y type stuff). More helis!
We continue roaming uselessly while the other pair of guys report that they found another heli (seriously this is the 4th or 5th they've found, including one inside Berezino) and are looting it. Then they come under fire from 3 heavily armed guys (M14, M249, and another guy). One of them kills one and wounds another. Dark and I decide to go help out and turn east towards the site, which is in the field between Gorka and Polona. For some reason we park the bike 2km away. After a while of hunting for the guys we lose them. The one guy who was killed only had an Enfield. Props to the guys who didn't log off either, was a fun hunt.
Dark and I forget where we parked the bike and go hunting for it (2km away fml). Eventually we find it. Now the guy Dark killed earlier reports he's in Kozlovka and we decide to bring him his stuff. We head southwest and long story short we break our wheels. During the long trek following the waypoint mostly it turns out that somehow we're only 1km from Cherno. We ride into the industrial area and run around looking for new wheels, which we find. On our way out we see a guy and shoot at him, but we miss and just continue on.
We arrive in Kozlovka and somehow Dark gets the bike on the roof of a house (how the hell did you manage that?) Needless to say I managed to get it off the roof, but in the process the wheels sort of broke again. So we meet up with other TL guy, return the gear we picked, and now call for help. Some other TL guys are happy enough to bring us some wheels so now it's just a waiting game. We raid the area a bit hoping for some wheels of our own, but none spawn. Other TL guy finds a heli site and we go raid it. It's east of Kozlovka and about 1km away. There's not tooooo many zombies so I start picking them off with my CZ. Apparently that was a bad idea, as the entirety of the Kozlovka spawn teleported to us and started rampaging. After a long while Dark is at 300 blood and lost aggro so he logs until we clear them, at which point both Other TL guy and myself say "hey we have frags let's use those". Other TL guy goes first and nearly kills me because he overshot the horde by 50m. Then I throw mine and the horde despawns. Also I overshot by 50m.
With no more horde we have time to give medical attention to Dark, who logs in. We get him patched up and transfused and raid the heli. I pick a Bizon and M14 and there's some other stuff too (a few FN FALs iirc). We attract more zombie attention again and now we've used up all of our bandages. So we ask the guys bringing wheels to also bring bandages, which they kindly agree to. Now we decide to hide and wait because we keep getting ourselves nearly killed and we aren't actually gaining anything for it. It's pretty late for me now and I have work in the morning so I log off in Kozlovka.
holy shit that's a big post...but was an action filled night.

That's pretty damn awesome. I need to join up on some of these long roams. Had a bit of fun with oZii trying to find crash sites, but the servers are messing up so we could only see each others characters for a few seconds every minute.
Managed to find a M14 AIM at a deer stand, which is my first snipery type rifle.
