Find a compass, head south and hit the water once you find the coast run west till ya hit a supermarket with a few zeds Your now at Bay Tikhaya Now that Map will help ;) Good Luck and HUNT WELL!

Sorry man but that will never happen, hell even if they come out with PvE servers Zeds will and can kill you, you can still take a wrong step off a tall building and end up just as dead, if your Lucky and don't just break your legs and have to crawl to find a bush with sticks and hope you can find a shirt to tear into rags to make a splint. If you die in game that's it, your dead. Start over.. Learn the lesson of Why you died and try not to make that mistake again. (its a bitch I know, but its one of the many reasons I love this game) And as allways. 1. Never trust anyone. 2. Never get attached to the gear. (Its not yours, you're going to lose it someday / somehow Death will happen) 3. The game is Alpha (not even close to being done yet) 4. Bugs / hackers / dupers / campers / bandits / newbie scrubs who want your gear, All of that Will make you so pissed that you'll rant and rave like a madman frothing at the mouth, wanting to climb a clock tower for targets. 5. If it looks good on you, sure as shit somebody else will think so as well and come after you for it.. Its Fight or Flight brother... and that's DAYZ (you may be better of with a squad man, lone wolf may not be your thing) Anyway, I Wish you well and good luck :)

Want advice? Try jumping on a low pop server and explore, get to know the game and layout, most towns have a well and you can drink from ponds as well. You can outrun zombies (Zeds) or beat em to death with your fists / shovel / ax ect ect, You can use a screwdriver to open caned food as well as an ax and other items work as well. Take a look around here on the forums for tutorials/FAQs as said above.. Good Luck ;)

I like em all for one reason or another, Just wish I could spray paint the talon / mountain ones black or green =) Why not? Holla!!

I gotta start this out with a LOL!! Zombies running after you for miles/up hill..... Nope, Zeds for me still get lost and confused after a few turns around some trees/houses/ ect I will say zombies and players Hit Box are fubar atm, had a hopper chase me then it looked like he ran off, i went back to close where he saw me and he poped right back in, needless to say i ended him... Allso seen quite a few Zeds floating away after death, to instanty respawn.... Hey its still ALPHA.. Weps, stop the police/piano bar run people, you may get lucky, but more often no, not a dam wep in sight... (what the hell do i call the big metal barn type buildings that you run up some steps to loot out of a side door?) Backpacks, weps and food ect ect spawn there now.. Garage... Scopes and fresh fruit and clothes/ Ax is rare (so far as i had seen) tools/ lights for your peacemaker ect ect... This Patch has changed the loot order placement, and LOL Zeds get to cheat! hehe I live North and West so i dont really need to deal with zeds, last time i went down from my tree stand to salvage some southern plains, as above, this is what i found out... HUNT WELL

but I offered him some food and water, and gave him a morphine, as I had 4 already.....That makes you smell like hopper, and a low pop server hopper as well... I Like That, tell me..do you jump often from server to server? are you on the west coast? east coast? Just saying... (sorry, meds are kicking in...)

I kinda find it fun (in my own sick little way) to set up camp with good cover and wait for that well geared hopper to open the front doors, most times he/she will loot the place clean and camp out.... But for that poor bastid that thinks he/she can just loot and scoot..... KABOOOM! .....and I say "thank you." Oh and its always FUN to hear someone looting inside, and then hear the panic of AK's and shottys fireing as another player logs in.... Good Times :lol: kinda why I stay outside under cover. Watching, Waiting....

I have had my char reset after joining a new server, even looked around a bit, logged off , joined a server I knew was stable and "Poof!" my char is back to normal.. Happened a quite a few times when I first started playing, hopping servers to test ping and such.. My two cents anyway.. (off topic) I need coffee to be ingame plzkthx /yawn TuT

So Real, yet so Hawkward :)

Killed a Zed only to watch his corpse just....Float away, then respawn :huh: lol I Love Patch Day :D

I LOVE my SKS, saved my ass so many times, Next is the 357 mag, put down a few mad dogs with that one. Next is the sawed off SHOTTY its back to being a beast again! HUZZAH!!

This. This right here, would imo be the best fix they could put in ASAP, its a real shitty way to play, and as long as it go's on some douchebag will always exploit it.... (sorry if off topic) TuT

I learned the hard way that a ballistic helmet wont stop a newbie's fist from knocking me the "F" out........ (should of shot that little turd.....) lesson learned ;)

I LIKE IT! I LIKE IT ALOT! (how in the seven hells could they do this, i dont know...) But I LIKE IT!!!!

Welcome to DayZ :) You learn as you go... I would HIGHLY suggest you check out some of WOBO's DayZ Videos on Youtube, very helpfull.. Good Luck and Hunt Well!!

As a fresh spawn you can pretty much sprint the map, north / south / east / west without dieing from thirst or hunger. besides the fact that there are ponds and pools of water you can drink from that have no ill effect at the moment. Allso, there are towns and stuff NW that have little to no zeds, as well as listed on the DayZDB map, in the northwest there is a town that is not there anymore, but the well is...... ;) Happy Hunting

Get food, Get Water, and Get into the woods.... Wait it out, Camp it out. I read up on these issues and i bugged the hell out, Keeping an eye on here for some better words next patch drop. For now im eating beans in a deer stand far far away =) Good Luck Hunters!

Do allready ruined items spawn ingame? Or, was someone there before me? :o (I did use the search option /shrug) Found a ruined can of tuna fish out in the middle nowhere...

Logged into a supermarket in novo to see an SKS pointed at my face, just in time to hear the laugh and the Bang...... (note to self don't log out drunk at 3am)

himmmmmmm ok Thanks Preach

It was in a barn, getting dark outside, sticks were snaping i Noped right out of there fast! ( and lived ) So ruined items dont spawn....Glad i left Thanks people

Well dang it! looks like i got ambushed! :D

indeed dont log out on stairs, under trees, and so much more! welcome to DayZ! Where if a Zombie or a Player dont kill you, the Ladders will! :P

For something that should take a mans head off, or blow a hole in him that you could stick your arm through its kinda weak...... <_< Ditched mine awile ago....

Soon I hope ;)
