Boonshniggle 0 Posted June 17, 2012 I dunno if no gun at all is the greatest thing. I admit I am posting this when the patch has not been out very long, really it's still the first day it's been out.My character has been alive a while and and got some good shiz I don't wanna get rid of, so I log onto my wife's who just bought the game and hasn't played it yet to see what the new spawn experience is like.At first I was in love the second I joined the server, freakin no gun, I was so excited. Kind of hilarious how when this game gets that much harder, I'm just like "WOOHOO!" lol. Anyways, my excitement ended when I went into elektro...killed b4 I got into a damn building. Went into cherno...killed before getting a gun. Went into cherno again, killed before I got there.These all happened on 3 different servers also. I am hoping this was just a case of super bad luck, cause I REALLY like the idea of no gun on spawn.However, if this is an issue others have had, would a makarov with 1 clip suffice? At least make those very few bullets super precious, and if someone is trying to kill you on sight, you have at least a chance of doing something other then running in zig zags away from them?

m3anmarin3 0 Posted June 17, 2012 Well you'll still have to find a magazine to load with that clip, or manually load each round into the chamber... Trolling aside, I think the problem is you are relying on Elektro and Cherno to get supplies, use the smaller towns, farms, and houses to at least get some supplies going before trying for one of the big cities. Also, once some of the campers get killed off the murder-fest should subside a little bit I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fishy (DayZ) 0 Posted June 22, 2012 I dunno, as someone who pretty much restarts every two days or so due to broken bones and such, finding a weapon has become a bit easier now that hatchets are scattered around... well, everywhere. Personally, I find it harder to avoid being killed by bandits attempting to loot high-powered items rather than just gaining rudimentary items because it's really just a matter of stocking up at a few supermarkets and barns.

biorage 4 Posted June 22, 2012 I just head straight in-land, and I've been doing well since I've done that.Costal areas are a bit crazy at times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tenbucc2 0 Posted June 22, 2012 i like the dynamic of no gun. i think you're more likely to team up with someone you come across when you both don't have a weapon. you can't shoot each other so you don't. it gives you a collective goal. If you did spawn off with a makrov and one clip... someone could bassically smoke you out with what shots they have, replace the clip they just wasted, take your bandage and mosey along the trail. although i do own a gun, i think most people don't. i think it's more realistic to spawn without one.
