Murphy's laws of DayZ

Recommended Posts

I've learned a few things about DayZ I think are important everyone remember.

1. If the enemy is in range, so are you.

2. Incoming fire has the right of way (dont get cocky or impatient)

3. try to look unimportant, you may be worth less than a DMR round.

4. Bambis are more dangerous than experienced players, they dont know what they are doing. (gets you AND them killed)

5. Teamwork is essential (you're buddy may be the one who draws the enemy fire)

6. Anything you do will get you shot, this includes nothing.

7. Never hide with anyone braver than you are.

8. Friendly fire is less than friendly.

These are a sort of murphy's law of DayZ, anyone got anymore?

Trust no-one, including the guy yelling friendly through direct.

9. The inventory is dangerous. Using it will confuse you, distract you and get you killed.

You're never alone, except on an empty server (and who the fuck wants to be on one of those)

Ammo Spawning Law:

if you find ammo for weapon A and you decide to keep it, you will then find weapon B.

Corollar:

if you find ammo for weapon A and you decide to discard it, you will then find weapon A

Well, I once read some military related "murphys laws" which i would think applies quite well with Dayz.

There is no such thing as a perfect plan.

Never draw fire; it irritates everyone around you.

Anything you do can get you killed, including nothing

No matter which way you have to march, its always uphill.

The military murphy's law inspired this one..

Always uphill, this works for DayZ

If you decided to have a friend kill you due to infection, the server will restart before your equipment can be secured.

12. No matter what precautions you take to ensure otherwise, the last zombie will come through the opposite way than all the others.

The most common of common trash items won't spawn when you actually need it.

No matter what specific item you need (Tire, toolbox, jerrycan, Rotor Assembly) DayZ shall force you to search every industrial area on the map before you find it, Making sure to spawn multiples of every piece you already have....

No matter what the patch notes say, zombies will still walk through the wall to infect you on the first hit

Don't forget this corollary to the 6.th rule:

6a. Survivors will be shot again.
