Swordfish (DayZ)

Rocket is the #1 mass murderer on DayZ.

I like it. I easily made it from solnichniy to the nw airfield on less than 10 drinks/food. I knew my way around enough though.

I never got wiped by Rocket probably because I died about 3 times around that time before getting geared again.

I had that at one point while being healthy and it eventually just went away. I did take some vitamins and such though.

I've found them in big brown barns and schools/office buildings. In the schools/office buildings I've only ever found it on the very top floor room.

I don't mind not having a safety on guns. I've barely if even ever shot a friend by accident.

I've been stuck in numerous places but luckily escaped without much harm/time. As others have mentioned keep running/vaulting/hopping/crawling at areas of the walls that entrap you. Hopefully you can escape without death or too much time wasted.

If it were to be added it even though it most definitely won't then it should have a very high percentage of failure. Just find a friend to play with. It's much more fun with friends rather than being a lonely lonewolf. You could also force someone to help you but the friend scenario would probably work out better in the end.

Everyone farts but as long as you don't have the sick box within tab menu then you're not sick.

It's a beautiful game to go exploring in. The added many buildings that can be entered is beyond fun. Despite it being a very early alpha it's a very enjoyable experience. It's got improvements over the mod version that the mod will never be able to surpass.

Eat/drink a ton of food/beverages. The yellow/green boxes will disappear but continue eating until you get to the point of healing/healthy. You might get full beforehand so be sure to not get too full so you don't vomit. You'll just have to go running around for longer before eating again. Eventually you'll get to that point though. When you're healthy you won't have to eat for very long periods of time too! You will need another friend just like with a blood transfusion if you didn't know like Mos1ey states. Here's a picture of the status you're going for concerning eating/drinking. It'll then turn into healthy once it's done healing.

Put the IV starter kit in your hand then drag the saline bag over it. It should create a saline bag IV

Try to get a grip of the map. Use this to go exploring and such. Once you generally know the map it's very easy to gear up after dying.

It's best to just drop it on the ground. Most of the time the item or items disappear for a bit but then will show up in a minute or two. Sometimes the items simply disappear to never return. It's best to trade on flat ground and preferably not in a building.

Watch out for the ghost.

Players are the story. You'll be able to leave notes and things later on among other things. It's much better than following a linear story.

It doesn't seem to be implemented yet. You can only take blood samples like you say yet can't do anything with it being filled with some kind of substance ie blood.

You can either do a blood transfusion with the help of a friend or eat/drink a lot. Eat past the points of thirst/hunger boxes disappearing until it reaches the point of healing status like seen below. It'll eventually turn into a healthy status after you're done healing too. Concerning loot, if you head up north you'll find a ton of loot compared to coastal cities down south even with a full server. Another simple solution is playing on a low population server for a while to further your chances of finding loot. There's no countdown of when a server starts atm that I know of but right after a restart is when the loot re-spawns.

Watch where you step or better yet hold shift while somewhere 4 feet or more off the ground. You'll love the shipwreck! It has no railings throughout most of it and the drops are 10 feet or more. :lol:

My heart still sometimes races when I'm in an intense firefight situation. It happened to me back in July of 2012 because of the DayZ mod and still does sometimes on the SA. I've never had that problem in any other game like even standard Arma 2 or Arma 3 missions/wasteland servers.

It's nice to have both but it sucks that you lose it on log out. It's best to keep the one you don't want as much in your hands with the one you prefer to keep on your back.

I've just been exploring the whole map. I have explored all if not most of the new places. The new north of the map is quite beautiful despite the lack of buildings among other changes throughout the rest of the map.

I love the realistic damage. It probably needs tweaks on number of areas but it'll never be like CoD or Battlefield.

I've traveled throughout the whole map numerous time and have not been teleported at all. I'm assuming that a hacker teleported everyone and/or your character got wiped when Dean did some cleaning. It's alpha but you can just play sometime later when it's more stable if you wanted to.

I don't see an option for it anywhere within the config. I thought that I read somewhere on these forums that it was T but it's not. I can't seem to find it. It used to be F in the mod but it's not even in the config options in the SA. Am I missing something or is it not there?
