I just talked to a few friends about how we died the first time in DayZ, i found this conversation quite entertaining. So i'm wondering, is there anyone on the forums willing to share their experiences about how they died the first time? Was it a bandit? A ladder? Bleeding Out? Or just accidental consumption of rotten food/disinfectant? Before i wait for people to reply, here's my story: I spawned on the coast, somewhere near Kamyshovo. Me having no experience in DayZ outside watching some Youtube videos. I first decided to loot some houses for basic food, clothing and maybe a weapon. I didn't find much outside of rotten food, but i did find some canned tuna which i immidiately ate, a few minutes later i found a hoodie, which even though was damaged, it felt like victory for me to find something. I proceeded to go in land and ended up in Staroye, where i found a basic backpack and a fireaxe, and to "show off" my trophy, i decided to go and kill the first zombie i see. But you know, at that point i barely even got used to the controls, so i made it out alive with enough blood in me to fill 3-4 glasses. In a house nearby i found some rags on a dead player, patched myself up, took his can of beans :beans: :thumbsup: and headed to Guglovo. Meanwhile when i was looting for a gun or something, i saw a group of well-armed players coming from the west, possibly Novy Sobor. My instinct told me i should get out of there as fast as possible, of course, before i even realised; I was sent back to the coast after a swift gunshot blowing my brains out... :o So... How did you die at first? :D
