Just logged back to one of the Norwegian servers to fulfill my masterplan:
Sneak to the main airfield under the cover of the night.
Buuut, I ran into a small problem.. it was.. uh.. well, it was dark. Like, REALLY dark.
And I must say, only one game has made me feel a wee bit scared before and
that was Vietcong, the mission after the long tunnel crap where you have
to sneak back to your lines during the night. DayZ gave me that same feel
times 10.
So, I logged in like I said and decided to try and get to the forest 300-400
meters to the north (I had logged out in the middle of a field). I start making
my way in the matte black night, only brighter bit being the cloudy sky.
With a compass in my hand, I feel my way towards the forest, barely visible
against the horizon. Suddenly, I hear gurgling and immediately stop moving
and go prone. Now that I was completely still and my own footsteps weren't
covering any other noises around me, I realised I was far from being alone.
I scanned around, 1.. 2.. 3 slowly walking shadows against the horizon to
my right and front. Great... ESC->Abort
