I used to run into the same problem as you, and as orlok said, everything will fall into place, and you will be having a blast. This technique is what I used when I first started playing, and is what I still use now. First your going to want to spawn by Cherno. It will tell you were you are when you spawn. Use www.dayzmap.info to find Cherno from your loction and to see what building you can loot. Head strait too the Apartments on the north side, these have a good chance to get a gun, pack, food, ammo, ect. Once your all suited up, look at your map and start following it to Stary Sober. There are a few towns on the way, just try to stay to the sides of them, unless want to risk looting them. Sprint in woods, always crouch or crawl in towns/ near zombies. If zombies are on your tail try quickly disconnecting. This does take away from the game, but for a beginner like you, it will help you stay alive. But once you find Stary, stay on the outside and go to the north side of town. You will find some military tents, carefully loot these, looking for zombies and other players. Once you have all your military gear, loot the grocery store, as it always have an abundant supply of food and soda. Now your basically set. Explore the map, be cautious of the NW Airfield, and you should have a great experience. But make sure to not rush. Take your time, be careful, and you will survive. Buddy up with a friend if you can, and if your still confused, there are some great video tutorials. Buckwheat
