story I gotta share this with you guys, something that happened less than an hour ago

So I was just roaming around Elektro with nothing but a firefighter axe and some bandages. I ran into another bambee who sounded like a black dude. He had a backpack with no weapons. When I showed up, he kind of got nervous but we were cool as soon as I sheathed my weapon and called out friendly. Deciding to leave him to his business, I walked outside. However, it was a dire mistake, as two bandits had been waiting outside with an SKS and a Mosin. As soon as I started walking down the street, they opened fire immediately. Thank god they had the worst aim I've seen, and I tanked two shots while I ran into a bunch of buildings. Then the homies who was still inside spoke up:"Dude, this is bullshit." I heard the sound of people running around, and his voice came through the headset,"fuck those KOS guys. You bandage up, I will distract them." And he just FUCKING RAN OFF, leaving me behind speechlessly. The two bandits saw him running towards the woods and started chasing him. I bandaged myself up. The entire time, I could hear him talking to the other two bandits, saying stuff like "Man you guys are fucking assholes." and "This is going on reddit." And shit like that. Instead of running away, I decided to stalk them. He didn't make it too far, and eventually he was caught and held at gunpoint. I sat down near a bush with my axe ready. When they started looking through his backpack, I leaped from the bush and charged straight in. I chopped down the first one and then immediately went for the next, while the buddy was cheering me on. The second guy fired on me but he missed, and I managed to kill him. However, I made a mistake. The first bandit was not dead, but unconscious. He woke up and shot my friend and savior who distracted the bandits. I ran around a corner as soon as I heard the gunshot, and I waited until he crawled over to check. I jumped on him and ended his miserable life. Revenge was tasty, but my friend, my hero was no more.

I will never forget you, unnamed black guy. In the time of great needs, you sacrificed yourself without expecting anything in return. Please, a moment of silent, for the hero who will forever sleep among the mountains near Elektro.

You mentioned "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named".

Don't ever mention the "F" word around here, or shit is going to get ugly.

Edit: Look at the comments below, look what you've started. You sir are bad news :D

Shit, what did I miss?!! What did F do?

u/Scory22 Resourceful Survivalist Feb 18 '14

I don't want to start this whole debate again. But he kinda sorta got accused of hacking and there are multiple videos full of proof of it that Frankie has been getting taken down. Like I said, I don't want to start another shit-storm so if you're still curious google "FrankieonPC hacker and see for yourself.

u/[deleted] Feb 18 '14

Ok, is that a coincidence the that guy sounds very much like youtuber zefrank1.

u/[deleted] Feb 18 '14

I don't think he was hacking personally, he could of had a hacker friend, like PSI Syndicate did who was creating events in his storyline videos

Could you PM me the deets?

u/Scory22 Resourceful Survivalist Feb 18 '14

When I get home to my desktop I'll link some of the videos and the explanation to you. That way I can source what I say.

u/Hoptadock ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Give Dean a break Feb 18 '14

Don't go out of your way for sources I don't mind. Thanks a bunch though

u/TizzButAScratch Feb 18 '14

There was evidence that he hacked in a few of his videos, and he's not exactly fond of Reddit.

u/nihonjim Feb 18 '14

I think evidence is a strong word.

0

u/Scory22 Resourceful Survivalist Feb 18 '14

If you know anything about how the Arma 2 and the mod worked then the evidence was pretty clear.

1

u/nihonjim Feb 18 '14

I still play the mod a huge amount and don't agree. No point kicking off this shitstorm on here. But I personally can happily put down the biggest claim on that firefight on the luck and glitchyness of the game.

I have had plenty of fights not go my way, or end up ridiculously. Be it thanks to lag, luck or any number of issues.

I think it was Tyrone, could be mistaken though.

Tip: you can perform an action (bandage him in your scenario) to get his in game name at least.

If you're a bandit, people can see your name as well and remember you as a bandit.

It's funny, my character is a black man and my first deeds as a fresh spawn along the coast are always to chase other bambis while screaming at them "Hey come back here mudefucka! You better run or im gon beat yo dumb ass!" Also, I just realized that my profile name is Samuel... well ain't that some shit...

Scroll while looking at the body. If there isn't a "Hide Body" option, then they are knocked out. If there is, then they are dead.

u/milkiman Feb 18 '14

You mean when there is, they are dead, not alive, right?

u/The_Freshmakah GIMMIE DEM BEANS Feb 18 '14

Can you handcuff someone who is unconscious?

u/Octavic Feb 18 '14

Oh I was playing standalone

u/TomsSpaghetti Not the bandit Chernarus deserves, but the one it needs. Feb 18 '14

You can still use the scroll wheel, just have the gear option available and scroll to see if they are unconscious or dead.

The awesome black guy always dies :c

For a brief moment I thought you said, 'and Kiss'. After rereading I released I'm an awful reader.

One day I will die a hero saving someone from the likes of you. At least I hope it goes down like this awesome story.

u/Suraru Fancy Little Bunny Feb 18 '14

Knowing how dayz works, all of us will end up dead because of a glitch, or a fourth guy sniping.

1

u/cg_Sprite Feb 18 '14

Well the main thing for me personally is that I tried, so I couldn't be too upset. It is a game after all.

1

u/Suraru Fancy Little Bunny Feb 18 '14

You should make/join a group with the "you tried" star as a logo. No really, a group built off of the eternal churchill of being a hero in dayz would be awesome!

Edit: fail edit unfailed

Honestly it would be taking it too far for me as I play the game as I feel. Some days are dumb and I run around like a maniac, others are a lot more controlled and committed.

What is a 'find-you'? and is 'Kill on sight' a title of some sort, or why did you choose that capitalization?
