Got a gun (terrible pistol that takes ~4 body shots to kill a zombie, but still), bandages, food, map and binoculors - things are getting real now :O

I plan on starting to play for real on Monday or Tuesday when I'm off work. Can't wait. Sounds fun.

Pezus,
- Try to find where you are first (when you spawn, you got the nearest city or place at the right bottom corner of the screen under 'Chernarus').
- Use this map http://dayzmap.com/
- Use landscape and forest limits, roads... to find your way.
- Try to reach for barns, or deerstands. You'll probably found more guns in the latest. Sneak out of zombies line of sight and make less sound possible. Or, raid a supermarket, but they're rare and a middle of a city full of zombies.
- You'll find very useful info in the dayZ wiki

I've got a very good gear at the moment, AK74, G17 (hand gun), binoculars, map, watch, matches, ALICE backpack... I have the water can so I'm not dependent on consummables, I can make a fire, gut animals and heal myself with cooked meat so I can now survive on my own !

Woot !!! had my best run so far since i started one week ago.

I started in Komarovo, run for the barns and deerstand till Bor (which is a shitty place btw), then Drozino, where I got something to drink ^^.
Then I got west to Zelnogordsk, where I looted my first supermarket. Found a Alice bag a map, a watch, a fuckton of food, bandage, and drinks, then I ran another farm to get a Lee enfield, a bottle, and a crossbow !!!!

I'll stop for now but tomorrow I'll farm the Green mountain for its military loot. Then, it will be time to run for the North !

I can finally say that this game has a long learning curve, that you need luck, stealth, you need to find yourself on the map, check zombies pattern... I've made too much spawn where I did not knew where to go, what to get, and ended up starving or by thirst ^^, like yesterday when I run for the Green mountain and ended up in a military camp full of gun but without food and I died there in the middle of an armory ^^.


That. Sounds. So. Awesome.

ARGGHGHGHGHGH!!!

I need this game in my life!!

- To refill water, find a pond, or a water pump. On the map, the pond are easy to find, and the blue drop are the water pumps. The easiest is to get near a pond, cause there's usually less zombies. When near the pond (don't get inside or you can loose all your stuff :dayZ bug:), just press G for gear, right click your water can, and click fill water. Refill whenever you can !

- Watchout with the Lee Enfield, it makes a lot of noise and the zombies will be attracted by it.

- Just got my first encounter, I wanted to get in a tree stand there was a player in it, I just stayed out of line of sight and GTFO. Pretty sure we all scared to shit out of eachother ^^ Fun. I don't know if it was a pk or not, did not want to try !





I've had this , exactly this, my first run of the game. Priceless



Haven't played in a few days! But if anyone wants to play before I leave Thursday for about 5 days of vacay, let me know, I'm heavily geared up at this point haha.



I want this game more than I want halo 4... which is A LOT
