My first time playing Battle Royale (mod for ARMA 3), a short story:
Why the hell had I been chosen for this? I was just a [insert menial labour here] assistant, and now I was to engage in a free for all deathmatch with 31 other people. Only... one... survivor... I had never shot a gun before, hell, we were not even issued guns, the thought was that we would all have to scavenge for them as we made landfall on the small island off the coast.
Find a gun, kill everyone else, survive and you are free.
That was the plan anyways.
I started to sweat and could hear my own heartbeat as I looked over my fellow "chosen ones" in the aircraft carrying us to our destination. Some of them looked as scared as me, others bobbed their heads up and down rhytmically as one person performed a perfect rendition of Darude - Sandstorm using only his mouth. I assume he was a professional beat boxer before this.
All of a sudden, we were thrown out of the plane, if you were lucky you had looked up how a parachute worked before this. Two people were not so lucky and painted the farmlands below with their bloodied corpses. I pulled my string early, thinking I would get as far away from everyone else as possible, maybe find a nice shack to hole up in until everyone had killed everyone else and I would win by default.
The air tugged at my clothes as I slowly descended on the far corner of the island, aiming for a deserted farmhouse.
Closing in on the ground I tried to steer the parachute to land in the 'courtyard' of the farmhouse, but I misjudged the turning speed and hit the roof instead, stumbling from the forwards momentum I immediately fell off the edge and broke my neck.
3 down, 29 to go.
Looking for a new server.
EDIT: Heh, I thought I was about to cheese myself to victory in my fourth game. I managed to get to a care package dropped from an airplane. I found a rebreather. I proceeded to spend the rest of my time under the sea, singing the song associated with that.
The plan would have worked too, if not for you meddling kids if I had rememberd that the blue zone will shrink every few minutes and moved towards the center. Instead I was happy sitting on the seabed singing like a crab which meant that went the circle shrank I didn't have time to swim there :p I am fucking loving this mod.
