You're definitely not invincible in a vehicle, I found that out the hard way when I drove a tractor down a 50% inclination through woody territory.

Anyway, after my death through hackers, by complete randomness me and my buddy ran into a camp with stuff like an AS50, and some objects I hadn't seen before; a range finder, ghillie suits, night vision. Feels pretty cool to be well equipped. 

Spawned in again, this time going towards Balota. I get some weird texture bug, which annoys me to hell, and as I approach the hangars, due the bug i can't see where I'm going, and end up in someones pistol sights. I turn away and run to show that I'm no danger, end up with a bullet to my head anyway.

This texture bug with the military tents is very, very annoying, I must say.

You are so lucky.  I'm not really sure how I should proceed from now on. I have gotten myself a DMR and a FN FAL as short range backup weapon from a heli crash and now I'm growing too attached to it.  I'm mostly playing alone or with a friend, who is unarmed atm, and I wouldn't even know how to approach the NW airfield without being shot too easily. Found another crashed heli yesterday night with a M249 and a AS50, but I couldn't carry more stuff and I was not as confident to find some spare ammo for the AS50 as I am for the DMR. Still felt bad, though.

Btw, if I read that correctly from the DayZ forums, Ghillie suits do not spawn since the last update.

Oh well. We both just got shot from behind, in the motherf..ing middle of nowhere, aka Kumyrna. This is bad.  Guess we have to look for another group to join, always playing a duo is so fucking dangerous.
Anyways, new life, new luck...

If you guys ever team up again to do some nice group runs, give us a call we two would gladly join in. 

It's pretty obvious I guess, someone who likes FH2 can't be anything but a good Producer. 
But now, as my friend got it to work, it really made my day(z) yesterday.
We were on a quite populated server and I planned to loot the supermarket in Zerenogorsk, to get maybe a handgun for me and a new backpack for him. We approached in a circle from the west and I supposed it couldn't hurt to observe the village for a few minutes, so we lay there in a group of trees with our binocs and did so. Thank god we did - just when I was about to stand up and move to the supermarket, some guy in a Ghillie suit and a camo-svd showed up. He was just lying around next to the supermarket, so we were unsure whether he was camping for another survivor or covering someone.
Some minutes passed and the first option became more and more likely, and again I was about to sneak down and up behind him, using my friends observational messages, to eliminate him, the Bandit he appeared to be, when another guy with a scoped rifle showed up next to him. They then proceeded with a car (!) which they fueled up at the gas station and finally drove away.

I don't think I have ever played a game where I quietly observed two players for ten minutes, they being very cautious and watching around everywhere for potential attackers, but never seeing us (other games usually having a map so small that even if you don't actually know it, you usually have an idea you might be discovered every second). Nothing actually happened, but it was so unbelievably intense.

Even more so, when I sneaked down to the Supermarket, starting to look for the good stuff.. went through the back entrance, starting to pick up some food, when a guy with a Lee Enfield comes through the door two meters in front of me. We both were shocked for a quarter of a second, but then my reflexes sprung in and i emptied some AKM bullets into his chest, and he vice versa put a round through my head. Bang.  I was a little unlucky there, as I got massive lag spikes in this area.

However, while I respawned rather close in Kamenka and proceeded north, my buddy went in and salvaged my backpack, although the place was crawling with Zeds after that guy fired his Lee Enfield, that thing is just so loud. I met up with him, went in, took the other guys backpack and his M1911 (a backpack was what we were looking for eventually, wasn't it?), and brought it back to my friend who was securing my fallback route. He also had a Morphine auto-injector on him, two Epi-Pens, and quite some tools - map, matches, compass, watch, you name it.

I just can't wait for this evening, when we plan to proceed northeast to maybe gear up a little more. 

Been trying this the last few days, really love it.
On the downside, I have to play alone atm, because my friend who bought it too can't get it to run (after it miraculously worked yesterday), because he was getting kicked as his BattlEye didn't report back. So he dl'ed the dll from their homepage and now he always CTDs when trying to join a game. Just sat in a bush for an hour, waiting for him to fix it, now I lost my patience and quit. 

Edit: He fixed his CTDs, but now he keeps getting kicked of the server as the BattlEye Client is not responding, although he manually updated it. Even uninstalling his antivirus software didn't seem to fix the problem.
