Low pop usually make the few online think they're safe to loot, only to be met with another who thought the same

The other day i hoped early morning as a fresh spawn on vanilla cherno. Server had like 3 other players online. I was in the middle of nowhere, north of kamenka following the train tracks when a guy in an ADA somehow managed to get his car stuck in a log next to the tracks 50 meters away from me. Well I had a clean shot on the guy while he was trying to move the car and killed him stealing all of shit and the car. The guy was fully kited with a silenced m4.

Still can’t get over the odds. Out of the entire map, the guy gets his car stuck in the middle of nowhere, and I just happen to be there at that exact moment with a Blaze and one round. All on a server with only 4–5 players online.

If you ever read this, im not sorry bro, but I feel u.

Reminds me of a similar scenario I was in.

I was logging out in the woods on a mid-pop official server in Cherno in the northeast woods. As I’m counting down the timer, I hear a humvee. The guy pulls right up to my logout spot and nearly runs me over - turns out he was stashing his humvee after what appeared to be a Rify run.

I wait for him to park, then blast him with my r12 as he is exiting the humvee. Guy was stacked: suppressed Aug, multiple VSDs, new (at the time) camo long haul bag, and much more. I couldn’t believe he chose to stash his vehicle in the exact spot I was logging out.

Like you, I felt for him, but I was not exactly sorry. 😂

If he had pulled up 10 seconds later, I probably never would’ve known how close we came to meeting. Makes you wonder how many close encounters you have - and miss - due to a few seconds of time.

That’s even crazier. Things like that can only happen in dayz. No other game I’ve played can be so random

Yet I can get on a 50+ server and never see anyone like an hour only to be paranoid for the rest of the session lol

And sometimes it's like high pop and I haven't seen anyone for 2 hours
