I said I was sorry! What more do you want from me!?

Kinda screwed myself here. I was traveling around and a zombie came. I started to use my pick ax to take it down and 2 more zombies appeared. I ran for the ladder, and 2 more zombies showed up. I only have 3 bullets. There's 5 zombies. How would you get out of this situation alive without relogging?

...and I couldn't pick it up. :(

Felt like I was watching COD. Run around, shoot somebody. Run around, get shot. Repeat.

I generally avoid other players, but there are times when you just run into someone, or someone finds you first. Out of the last 6 people I met, only 1 shot me in the back. The others were friendly.

If you play the Hero, and someone in your group is a Bandit.... Perhaps, maybe you should find someone new to play with. If i'm walking around and come up on 2 people together, and one of them kills me on sight, then in my eyes you're both bandits.

Be happy they didn't base the game in Texas. Then you'd all be running around naked, asking how to get cool, and dying from heat exhaustion.

Anything in pristine. I'm not picky. Just trying to survive.

How does it compare to the ax when killing zombies? How many hits from the baton?

I've never played Arma or the mod. DayZ standalone is a complete first for me. My very first spawn, 2mins into the game for the first time, I found a barn. I went up one side of the hay loft to see if anything was up there. Nothing. Across on the other hay loft I did see something. On my way back down the stairs, I jumped off the side about 4-5 steps up and broke my leg. (I didn't know I couldn't do that at the time). So, i'm crawling around with nothing. I spent 30mins crawling around looking for an ax, another player to help (of kill me so I could respawn), or a zombie. Eventually, I found a zombie.

Favorite weapon is the ax. You can do more with it than chop zombies. 2nd favorite is any gun that I can find bullets for. I'm not out to kill other players, only zombies, so any gun will do.

Doors make sound.

Well, i'm an idiot. I spawned with a new character, immediately found a stun wand and a crawler. I tried to use the stun wand to fight the zombie and it had no effect. I kept trying, thinking I was doing something wrong, and finally, I died. After reading your post, I see what I did wrong. No batteries! :blush:

Probably also already known, but in some houses, you can axe them through the windows while they are outside.

It's the internet. You have to take the complaints lightly and carry on.
