Blackout

You turn on your Playstation, boot up Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 ready to play some blackout. You notice that three of your buds are already in a party potentially looking for a third player. Do you [[join your buds]] or [[go lone wolf]]?

*Ping* *Shrubbinz has joined the party* ChocoFrawst, PeeWee47, and ReclusiveOne notice you join the party and scream in unison, "SHRUB!" You greet all your friends and ask them to join you in a game of blackout, which they happily agree to. While waiting for everyone to join your lobby, you decide to choose your character. Since you haven't unlocked anyone yet, you decide to choose your favorite multiplayer character. [[Ajax -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Battery -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Crash -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Firebreak -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Nomad -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Outrider -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Prophet-> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Recon -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Ruin -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Seraph -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Torque -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]] [[Zero -> Where We Droppin' Boys?]]

You decide you aren't in the mood to talk to anyone and decide to head it out alone. You hop into a game of solos and check the map. You notice the dropping path goes directly over [[Asylum]] but you're really wanting to land at [[Nuketown Island]]. Where do you land?

After selecting your character, you're ready to start your match. You join a lobby and notice the aerial dropping path will go from north to south along the western shoreline. ChocoFrawst asks you wether you think you should land in line with the path or try to put some distance from everyone else. [[Stick to the line]] [[Put some distance]]

You tell him that you'd like to put some distance between you and the line. ReclusiveOne then asks the world famous question, "Alright, then where we droppin' boys?" You quickly shout out [[Rivertown->Rivertown]], and everyone else accepts your proposition.

You tell him that you'd like to stick to the line. ReclusiveOne then asks the world famous question, "Alright, then where we droppin' boys?". Everyone else shouts "LIGHTHOUSE", so its decided. You wait for the helicopter to be over and jump. Sadly you get killed seconds after you land. ReclusiveOne urges you to stay and watch! Do you [[stay and watch your squad]] or [[back out of the game]]?

You and your squad land at Rivertown and start the looting process. You noticed at least four others land here so you know you have at least one squad to watch out for. PeeWee47 tells the squad that he is going to the gas station and asks if anyone is going with him. ChocoFrawst and ReclusiveOne both agree to go with him. Do you [[go with the squad]] or [[approach the house in the center of the town]]?

You go to the gas station with your squad. There was already a team here, and with your teams lack of loot you get demolished. You imagine the player who killed you yelling, "GET REKT SKRUB!" Game Over!

As the rest of your squad heads off to the gas station, you approach the house at the center of town and notice the doors are still closed and no windows are broken. Do you [[continue into the house]] or [[go with the squad <-Turn back and follow your squadd]]?

You continue into the house and hear your squad shout. They all got killed by another squad at the gas station! Looks like you're on your own now. You search around the house to find a gun to avenge your squad. You find an MX9 (SMG) and PeeWee47 directs you to a Maddox RFB (Assault Riffle) you overlooked. Do you [[take the weapons]] or [[search for different loot]]?

You pick up the weapons and hear a window break behind you. You turn around and shoot the enemny that just jumped in. You have successfully knocked him to his knees. Do you [[emote on him]], [[finish him off]], or [[leave him and hide]] to lure his teammates?

You turn down the loot you have discovered in hopes to find better things. You go upstairs and find a GKS (SMG) and a SG12 (shotgun). You hear a window break downstairs so you decide you better take these weapons just in case. Do you [[jump out a window and run]] or [[go downstairs and fight]]?

You jump out the window, but one man from the squad that jumped in the house see's you and finishes you off. You imagine the player who killed you screaming, "THATS HOW WE DO IT BOIIIIZ".

You run downstairs but realize quickly that you are out-numbered. The squad that enetered the house lights you up and shreds you virtual body to pieces.

As you emote on the downed player his teammates enter the room behind you and riddle you with bullets. Game Over! (But nice finish)

You finish off the downed player but the teammates enter the room in a rage and wreck you. Game Over!

You leave the downed player and hide around the corner waiting for the downed players team. You hear two people enter the house and are about to turn the corner to kill them too, but as you get ready to you get shot and killed from the window behind you! Game Over! (Pay attention to your surroundings better next time! Jeez!)

You stay and watch your squad play. ChocoFrawst gets killed in Array but other than that things are looking good! PeeWee47 and Reclusive one ask you where they should go next, [[Estates]] or [[Construction Site]]?

You back out of the game, upset that you died so soon. You exit the game, leave the party, turn off your playstation, unplug all the cables from it, take it outside and chuck it in the road. Your 50th death on spawn in a row got you triggered hard. :( Maybe stay away from battle royales from now on?

Your remaining sqaud takes your advice and goes to Estates. Lucky for them, the only enemies here were easy to kill and this lead to an easy victory for you and your squad! Congratualations!

Your remaining squadmates head to Construction Site. Sadly, there is a sniper on top of the skyscraper with MAD SKILLZ BRO. He destroys PeeWee47 and ReclusiveOne and puts your squad to shame. :(

You land at the asylum and immediately find a bowie knife. Do you [[take the knife]] or [[look for a gun]]?

You land at Nuketown Island but you know there are a lot of other people here. You don't find a gun in the house you land at. Do you [[Check another house]] or [[try to run off the island]]?

You pick up the knife. Shortly after, you hear footsteps. Do you [[hide behind a desk]] or [[ run toward the footsteps]]?

You look for a gun but a gun finds you first. Unfortunately this gun already had an owner, and that owner did not like the sight of you alive. You're virtual body drops to the floor dead. You placed 89th!

You hide behind a desk and wait for someone to enter the room. Fortunately for you, someone does enter the room, back turned to you. You run up behind them and knife them in the back. You loot an ICR (assault rifle) from the body bag. You notice the circle is closing in, do you run to [[Firing range]] or [[Array]]?

You run toward the footsteps and kill the man who's footsteps you heard without even a scratch. You do a quick emote on the dead body and loot an ICR (assault rifle) from him. You notice the circle is closing in, do you run to [[Firing range]] or [[Array]]?

You head to the firing range and kill one player on the way taking slight damage, but some meds that you picked up at the Asylum fixed you up without a problem. You reach the firing range and hear some gun shots. Do you [[run toward the shots]] or [[hide from the shots]]?

You book it as fast as you can to the Array. When you get there you take a quick look around and realize that the place has been looted but don't see anyone else there. You can either [[stay in Array]] or [[start heading to the next circle]].

You run toward the shots and quickly realize that the shots were actually aimed in your direction. You try to take cover but it's too late. You get decimated by the player shooting at you. You got 54th place!

You attempt to hide from the shots but someone has been on your trail, notices your panic and siezes the moment to put you out. You placed 57th!

You stay in Array. While continuing to look around for loot you don't notice someone hiding in a building but they noticed you. He pops off a couple shots and drops you dead. You placed 39th!

You head to the next circle and take place behind a rock along the edge of the circle. You notice someone coming out of the storm a ways off to the right. Do you [[ take a shot at them]] or [[leave 'em be]]?

You catch them off gaurd and get 'em good! You realize you're still in the circle. Do you [[stay where you are]] or [[try to find a new spot]]?

You play nice and leave 'em be, but unfortunately for you they weren't as nice. They noticed you as well and took a shot. You fire some shots back but its no use. You place 15th!

You stay where you are and realize you've made it to the top five! If you play your cards right you could win this. You hear shots off to your left, do you [[Peek out and try to kill the shooter]] or [[take no action]]?

You step out from behind the rock and immediately get shot. Nice try! You came in 8th place!

You peek out toward the shots, aim and fire. Just as he kills his target, you nail him in the head with a steady shot of bullets. Turns out the person he was shooting at was the 3rd place player, putting him in second, meaning you got first place! Congratulations, you've won blackout!

You run inside the next house, and hear a window break. You see a grenade fly through the window. Do you [[run away]], or [[throw the grenade back]]?

You attempt to run off the island but with no guns you don't get very far when FerryGawdMuddah pops out from around a corner with a shotgun. You placed 92nd!

You turn the run but don't get very far before the grenade blows up. Nice try! You placed 91st!

You throw the grenade back and kill the player who threw the grenade! Do you [[loot the body]] for a gun or [[ continue hiding in the house]]?

You run out to loot the body and get sniped from down the street. You place 86th!

You continue hiding in the house. The storm is closing in, do you [[ run to the safe zone]] or [[continue hiding in the house]].

You try to run to the safe zone, but don't make it in time. It's too far away! You place 48th!

For some reason, you remain in the house. You don't know how but you managed to find a glitch! You aren't losing any health. You remain here for the rest of the game, finishing in first place! Congrats, you won blackout! (Granted you cheated, shame on you...)

You decide to ignore the shots and wait. The shooter killed his target putting you two in a final two situation. Unfortunately, you are so close to the circle that you've got to run. You step out from behind the rock and get destroyed by BigChungus88! You placed 2nd!
