xsven 0 Posted November 24, 2012 Trust no one, kill them on sight. Everyone in this game is a POS. Get a gun, any will do, shoot them or they will shoot you. Avoid zombies. Get better gear like a bigger gun then an extra gun ( hand gun and rifle ) and plenty of ammo.Watch YouTube videos on How To play DayZ as well.The only thing that sucks is getting killed by a hack. Takes a very long time to get goodies only to be disappointed.Other than that I can't wait for the stand alone version. And I have read an Xbox 360 DayZ type of game is comming out as well ( State of Decay ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've also found that axes are for more than chopping woods! Works great on zombies, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pointsofdata 0 Posted November 24, 2012 Been playing for a day died several times from zombies. Best death so far was just got a shotgun and was reloading it when the first player I'd seen ran up and killed me with a hatchet. Doh! Lol trust no one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdogsco 143 Posted November 25, 2012 Play on an empty server until you have got the hang of the controls, zombie behaviour and the looting/inventory system. Then hit up a populated server and find out why the average lifespan is only an hour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joanjett (DayZ) 31 Posted November 25, 2012 get an axe because it works as a weapon, stay out of the middle of the cities unless you absolutely need food, never tell anyone where you are - even if they say they need help because they dont, and try to find some friends who wont kill you.
