crazykage 1063 Posted January 11, 2014 Soooo yeah. DayZ PvE? I won. How? I started my journey next to a barn in a town called "Kamysho-somethingorother". I was thirsty, so I ran down to a well to drink my fill. Then I turned, put the coast to my back, and since that moment I have not once seen the ocean. After 2 days of cautious sneaking and exploring everywhere, from the far west, to the northern wastelands, to the far east.....then back to the west and back again east (you get the idea), I managed to find everything I needed to survive: TTsKo pants and shirtJungle bootsPress VestBallistic HelmetGas MaskBlack work glovesRocket Aviators (All Pristine) Hunting BackpackFull MedkitStorage BoxAmmo Box Fire AxeFNx45 w/ 2 mags and red dot. Also 40 extra rounds in ammo can.Moisin w/ bayonet, PU Scope, and close to 100 extra rounds in ammo can. Can opener2 (pristine) bags of riceSeveral assorted canned goods.Full Water Bottle (Canteen type, not the cheap plastic one) ((Purified))3 water purification tabs.Full bottle of spray disinfectant. Healthy status Oh yeah. And a FULL MAP, w/ Compass. (no server hopping, never joined a server with fewer than 10 people, except for one occasion when I played w/ a friend) So what now? Should I just run into the trees up in the northern wastes and sit down with a nice copy of "War and Peace"? Run around and look for more loot I don't need? Sure, I guess I could go find me some pristine defibs, a walkie talkie, or a cooking pot. But those items serve no purpose. And by the time they do, this character would get killed or wiped anyway..... So whats left? I think its time to go hunting....and I don't mean rabbits. As a side note, I would really like to see a new book added to the loot tables: "Deadliest Game". 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted January 11, 2014 Go and tackle the snipers. Barricade the Balota barracks with fire extinguishers. Start a fruit stall at Kamyshovo. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazykage 1063 Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) I tried the friendly route once already: I put a backpack in my backpack, filled the extra with food and a purified water bottle, and gave it to a fresh spawn at Kamy. He thanked me, and when I advised him to get off the coast, he replied "well im just trying to get to balota". He waved, I face-palmed (btw, THAT needs to be a gesture in-game), he left and probably got my food stolen and bleach sprayed in his eyes. the second guy I tried to help took the storage box full of food (consumable without a can opener or screwdriver or whatever) and a bottle of water, put it in his hands, and ran straight at me, swinging it at my head. I killed him and took my stuff back. The last guy I tried to help begged me to kill him instead. I did. So I guess I DID help SOMEONE.... Nah. Id rather go hunting. But im a sportsman. I don't catch and release my fish, but I don't keep the babies either..... *edit:Just to be clear, I do not mean to imply that surviving isn't fun. Had some tense moments. But once you reach a certain point.... Edited January 11, 2014 by Crazykage 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sooden 301 Posted January 12, 2014 experimental servers can be a challenge as they seem not to be reset for ages, and can be hard to find anything. I loved my run on one today, really had to look for things people had missed and encounters with people was also fun as guns and ammo are so rare :P So when I was attacked, it was normally someone with a melee weapon, thinking I had no weapon, as it was hidden in my backpack, BAM!

Gdaddy22 299 Posted January 12, 2014 This game needs something that would allow us to keep improving our character/base forever. Improve, improve, improve make it better, always keep on improving. Not only by finding items in houses, but modifying items, creating your own items, improving your items/buildings/, anything that will always let you make it better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveAzoicer (DayZ) 135 Posted January 12, 2014 Good job on the complete map without server hopping.Otherwise... feels a lot like a whine thread about non-KoS people, but in sneak mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dakisback 39 Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) I want to agree with you and say you won DayZ PVE but you haven't. I have though.http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=215584955http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=215584944You need more storage to be able to help your team members when they get damaged. Also play on more populated servers... What's the point of having all that stuff if you have no interactions with players?

As a side note, I would really like to see a new book added to the loot tables: "Deadliest Game". Do you mean "the deadliest game" or do you mean the novel (which isn't even a novel but a short story, it's only about 8000 words) which I think you mean "the most dangerous game" (by Richard Connell)? Cause the first one is about some terrorist thing. Edited January 12, 2014 by subliminal_city Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not only by finding items in houses, but modifying items, creating your own items, improving your items/buildings/, anything that will always let you make it better. Agreed, always have something to work toward, long term goals. I assume a lot of that will be added when we get to make our bases, but I always want something to work toward.
