G-h0p 40 Posted January 14, 2014 Good day gents,First, I would like to say that I was a counter strike player for years... then moved to consoles. But thanks to FrankieonPC, Jackfrags, Shosho, redreloaded on youtube, ive got to watch tons of Dayz Mod. I knew I had to get the dust off my PC and get the Standalone. I got it 2 days ago... and I have 19 hours played so far. Hahaha there goes ny life again... So I first spawned... having no idea where I was but I was not in the coast. Upon reading the comments on here I decided to loot the first few houses and got my hands on a compass. Great! Now I can go north! So I went north.mm looting everything on the way... until the trees werent no more. I decided to go west... and then south and although I had no weapon other my lovely axe... I manged to stay alive through 3 different pvp.I found a city and met another there who made me drop my axe... after a short introduction, he pointed where I could find a rifle and handgun at the NWAF. Once I got there, it was night and decided to call her quits. I slept for 3 hours, went to work for 8... came back home and started looting the airfield. My character at this point was stacked! Military issues everything, I had a defib, first aid pack, pristine acog, supressor, buttstock, handguard... everything but the gun. I made it up the air traffic control tower and there it was. An M4!! After 12 hours of looting I finally had something to defend myself other than my trustworthy axe! I loved my axe... I killed about 50 zombies with it so far!So I put everything on my m4... everything was pristine! I had bloodbags, saline, bandages, gas mask, kevlar helmet... I looked like a real GIJoE!But soon as I step out of the ATC tower, someone KoS' d me.. Regardless... I love the game. I respawned as a new character and I have a mosin with pristine sight.. and I havent a water bottle yet :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Check your corners before approaching and exiting military buildings. Good luck out there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G-h0p 40 Posted January 15, 2014 Perhaps I should have seen him... but he was just peeking out the hamgar door... which I was into 2mins prior to that. I learned my lesson though, loot what you need and gtfo asap. HehehMy second character just got killed at the balota airfield... I was in the hangar and as I was making way my back out from the back, someone said stop there, which I did... but he fired right away. Im pretty sure they were 2 men, glitching under the ground as the shots from 2 m4s definitely came from behind me and the front was clear. Entertaining and stressful game!
