GRRR Squad Forum

Yeah, I am stoked that DayZ has some grrrbians playing. The game is incredibly immersive and really unforgiving which makes for tense moments that no other game offers.

Hubris and I had a good run yesterday until the ambush. Sucks ass but it does happen every not so often where you'll get sniped from 500m out. No warning, no nothing. I don't mind dying and getting sniped but what happened after sealed the deal of fate for me. They still trolled us when we had nothing on us (the term "bambi" means you are literally a baby dear - weak and not of any value).

Its on now.

Im putting in a sesh late tonight and for most of Saturday to try and get my gear back to where I was and maybe get another car.

Well Phats and I found a car in good nick under a bridge and got it back to base. Then all of a sudden a hacker teleports us so we DC. Later I read the server has rolled back 2 hours and I sprint to get the car, heart pounding. Manage to navigate the mountain roads and put it in a very nice parking spot indeed. Shortly after I realised what a duche I was because I just ran over my gun tent while parking. I feel like crying.

I had a Lapua, DMR, G36K, M16A3 Acog, 2x M14 Aims, M249, small arms, ammo and medicals. I mange to destroy all of it like a true dick splash. I guess that kind of rules out doing anything else for a while! Need to build up dem weapons! Luckily we are close to Baranzino and the NE Airfield so a few leg trips and we will be sorted. If we are really struggling we can just go cruising in the ghetto mobile for crash sites.

Phatso your guy is still in Myshinko in that tree line we stopped at, last I saw the ATV was still there but I couldn't find Jerry's where we did, must have been looted. Really sorry about that it was a total retarded move, only realised too late and was completely shocked. I even thought about just running to cherno with a flare on my back doing the Platoon final scene to atone for my sins, but I was tired and went to bed.

Apparently if you leave a crushed tent you might get it back at server restart, not hopeful for the gear but I'm trying it.

Eish! Haha dude. Epic fail! But it happens, no worries man.
I have also read that flattened tents sometimes come back so lets be ambitious

At least we have transport and thats the critical.

Had a wierd experience this morning. Took the car for a ride to help a guy out who was killed by a hostile rock, there was literally no one else on the server, managed to find a UAZ along the way. We fixed it up and just as we were about to drive off the guy gets capped by some dude who just spawned in and saw us. So in the end I just traded the ghetto mobile for a UAZ and ran for my life! Tent is back btw, no guns.

Dude that is the life of a Zombie fighter!

Ya I know it might be annoying that I keep posting the stories, but DayZ is all about the stories and I love them! Hope at least some guys find them amusing. This game never ceases to amaze. I didn't stop to try kill the guy because I had too much to lose. You always need to consider whats in it for you and whether risk is justified, because you could lose 12 hours of gameplay, loot and vehicles in a split second if you are too aggressive.

-- EDIT -- LOL I went back to the scene of the crime and reclaimed the ghetto mobile!

No no keep them coming. The more I read the more I am convinced I will get this when it comes out as a stand alone.

On that, you think pre-standalone and post stand alone player will be able to play on the same servers?

Yes dude, keep the stories going. Its EPIC! I understand that need to share stories because some of them are just unbelievable at times.

Nope, SA (Standalone) is a whole new architecture/infrastructure. You play on separate servers. It would be a completely separate game that will follow a similar pricing to Minecraft (low once off cost at first as a beta, cost to increase over time).

Keep on posting. They are cool
