iWerderaner 2 Posted December 21, 2013 Thanks for the responses Someone posted a map in my other thread, how do I know where I am ? Or are you always in the same area when you die and start a new game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hurricane43 61 Posted December 21, 2013 I am also very new, but welcome also. I have found that if doors to houses are open it appears they have been looted for the most part. I would try going on a server with limited people to get a feel for the game and possibly more loot around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tegla (DayZ) 112 Posted December 21, 2013 Oh i thought you were reffering to the fridge doors?You can open regular doors that have the <II> symbol when facing them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EndEffeKt 87 Posted December 21, 2013 I can only encourage new players to resist and NOT USE THE MAP. You will look back on the good old times when you were lost and didnt know where to go. Just dont destroy yourself that in the very beginning and explore the map yourself. :) A very good bet to find big backpacks are the construction sites with the kranes. I always found 3-4 in these.
