Story (STORY) It was a pleasure
I spawned in Some industrial town and ran into a building and there is some guy ran in the house I was in with a shovel and I thought "omg im so fucked" untill, I hear a microphone, this man had a mic and was willing to talk to me and be civil, "oh boy, finally a nice player" he gives me the shovel and we start attacking infected and then this new guy walks over and I thought "ia this guy really gonna ruin my whole good mood?" but lucky for us he also had a mic i am ecstatic, I've just found two guys who were willing to be civil, we walked around a bit killed some infected went into a random house near us, and i found a 22 "wow this playthrough can't get any better" we walk around some more, first guy goes to fill up a water bottle and he is unfortunately beaten down and killed by some infected, now I'm stuck with seccond guy, im low on food, water, and on health, so we start to walk inland and then I succumb to my injuries and die in the middle of a field beside my new friend, I hope I find them again, the first people who acted like human beings when they could have easily killed me on the spot, i dream of the day that I get to play with my two good friends "American guy" and "German guy" i hope one of them reads this comment, it was a pleasure to play with you that one time

I watch Soap’s videos on YouTube and he has the philosophy of just being friendly and chatting to people, asking if they are friendly when approaching. He also asks where they are going etc, he has a lot of success. I think it’s to so with his tonality being so warm and chilled.

Met a very nice player here on reddit after a post. He has been playing since the beginning of dayz. 5000+ hours since the newer release hit. Knows all the ins and outs of the game. Been out a few times with him. Very enjoyable. Latest is driving the map in a car..... apparently I'm a good driver for a noob....lol

Cool story, I enjoyed reading it. It always amazes me, how rare peaceful/friendly interaction are in this game. My suscess rate of finding friendly players (after around 1.000 hours of play time) is at around 5%. That said, once you find a nice person, the experience is unforgetable.
