    So we've all learned a thing or two from our DayZ days and I thought it would be nice to share it with the community. Please avoid silly things such as "I've learned to shoot everyone and everything I see"

     

    Okay so I'll go first! :3

    A list of the few things I've learned:

      • Improved map-reading skills

      • Basics of the russian language

      • Some people only want what is best for themselves

      • Run away = Live to survive another day (wow that actually rhymed D:)

     

    So that was that, feel free to share what you guys have learned from playing DayZ!

     

    Edit: And I hope I posted this in the right section :s

    You do NOT need Arma 2 for the standalone version of DayZ. You see, DayZ used to be a mod for Arma 2 but now that the standalone is out, Arma 2 is no longer needed. So, yeah

     

    And DayZ commander is for the DayZ Mod, not standalone. Have you tried starting the game manually from Steam? It should work if you bought DayZ and not the mod

    The melee system in DayZ is FINE. Hitting the zombie in the head will knock it down. The only thing that needs fixing is the sound

     

    Other than that, when you hit the zombie, he keeps hitting you. This is bad. 

    Why? Do you really think it would just stand there and do nothing at all?

     

     

    I know the game engines are different, but it is noticeable that killing zombies in Infestation is better and easier (and the sound when hit a zombie).

    Are you kidding me? It sounds like you're hitting a wooden plank and the zombie just stands there like it's already dead, totally ignoring the fact that it's head is being hammered. Trust me, I've played WarZ/Infestation/whatever long enough to positively say that an army of zombies can be killed with a goddamn flashlight. Try doing that in DayZ. That's right, you can't. Because it would be too easy!

     

    Seanayy is right. Not to mention their screenshots on Steam, they're all "gameplay footage" yet 90% of them consist of impossible situations within the game. Plus they've lied about many things during the game's development

     

    Moral of the story: WarZ can't be compared to DayZ. They're totally different games.

    You have to wait, after you use the medicine the message "Your wounds look cleaner" will pop up every now and then. This means the treatment is working. After a while you will get the message "Your wounds are clean" or something like that will come up, this means you're healthy again. Vitamins also work to cure sickness by the way.

     

    On a side note: When I'm sick I use vitamins/antibiotics and drink something, after that I apply the alcohol to my wounds. I also sit down for a few minutes in order to let my character catch his breath (not sure if that's necessary or not). I get cured within 20 - 30 minutes.

     

    Hope this helped :)

    Right, so I'm about to join my friend in a server and, as I expected it didn't work. But my question here is why does it work for him and not me? We're not doing anything different and yet he can play and I can't.

     

    Oh and also, when I try to join I get the message "Confirmation of changes, session lost" whilst in-game for my friend it says "(my username) uses modified data file"

     

    Yes yes, I'm well aware that it's an alpha but still, some players can play, others can not. Why?

    You need to find a can opener and open the can up by dragging the can opener to your can of whatever, then you'll have the option to eat it

     

    So:

    1: Find a can opener

    2: Open the can by "combining" the two

    3: Eat!

     

    Hope this helps :)
