It really depends on what type of player you are and what your goals for a session may be. Most of the time I’d rather play solo as you’re far easier to remain unnoticed. While 99% of the player base may kos, I enjoy the challenge of attempting to be friendly with others. As you may expect, it tends not to go too well the majority of the time, however there are those slim occasions where you’ll be pleasantly surprised. On the other hand, when they become hostile it’s far more fun imo to be reactive in that situation. That happened to me the last session I had. Really it’s a matter of setting goals or doing some RP is always fun too.

You can find a tourist map in game, though most players use an app like iZurvive. Good luck out there survivor, don’t forget to embrace death.

Greetings Bohemian Survivors, I come today out from the bush to humbly request that my favorite past time, hunting, be restored to its former glory. I’m not sure what’s in the plants on Chenarus and Livonia, though the game animals seem to not be phased by 7.62 rounds to vital organs. I’m speaking merely of deer and live stock, never mind the bigger game. Living out in the bush and surviving off the land is what made being within DayZ feel great to me and many other hunters out there. Please reconsider this immersion breaking decision. Respectfully, A Concerned Hunter

Curious if you know what resets the persistence of the fences/watchtowers? Do you just near to be in their vicinity, or do you have to actually interact with each one?

That would work great, maybe even call it “used”, though “fair” works as well. I feel like the devs want the degradation to remain to keep this level of challenge, even though it becomes more of a chore, rather than a realistic mechanic to keep an eye on. As with all things, balance.

I agree, it would be better if BI added a handful or so more uses to the duct tape, and some other items, to help counteract clothes and tools degrading so quickly. At the very least increase the distance allowed before each phase of degradation to the shoes.

I’ve got 937 hours so far, got to push to crack the 1000hr mark. Time certainly has a funny way of flying whilst in Chenarus..

Sounds like public servers are what you’re looking for. The whole point of private servers is to have something else besides the constant PUBG mentality plauging this game on official. The RP element is a large driver for servers with those types of rules. It’s about that one thing that sets DayZ apart from all the others...interactions..

I hope you also sent this to Nitrado, otherwise it’ll likely not get to the right people.

A player that logs out holding loot does not count towards the central loot economy. Only gear that is held on a character that is online in said server counts, along with any buried/stashed loot.

I’m pretty sure the CLE is the same across all servers, regardless of player slots.

Yeah, this is likely what’s happening. I wish my stone camp fires would persist in the private RP server I’m in. They’re gone after every server reset.

They’re not zombies, they’re infected people who never actually died. Also, there could be the possibility that the infection could boost their endurance while deteriorating other cells. Who knows.. Personally, I’d rather they be fast rather than the typical slow moving ones.

Welcome to the ultimate survival experience that is DayZ.

That’s true, hehe.
