Nicko2580 398 Posted February 15, 2014 So I played my first game of DayZ yesterday and this is how it went (everyone should note that I just jumped straight in, without reading any guides or even checking the keybindings):I spawned somewhere along the coast and moved towards a nearby house, hoping to find some supplies. Almost instantly I hear a zombie, turn around and he's right there. I spend the next few minutes running around screaming like a girl, getting chased by this Zed because I couldn't figure out how to raise my fists and defend myself.Out of nowhere another survivor rocks up and I stand there like a twerp while said survivor saves me by punching the zed's head in. Then we high fived, which had both me and my fiancee in stitches. I still haven't said a word to this guy because I had no idea how. He nicknamed me Mr Greenshirt.He told me to follow so I did and we headed up the coast a bit while he talked about us forming 'The Union of Man' and a 'Fight Club' (but I'm not supposed to talk about that). We chased other survivors but they all ran away from us. :( They wanted no part of the Union of Man.Then finally I worked out how to type and he helped me out with the controls and VOIP just as another zed showed up. We beat it down, but the survivor died (I think he wanted to die though... very strange). He kept asking me to punch him before the zed showed up. If you're reading this dude, thanks for the shirt. It made good bandages.After that I wandered inland a bit, bleeding, until I finally figured out that I could tear up the shirt and bandage myself. I think I was pretty wrecked though because my screen was grey and blurry. Then I licked a battery... you know... because that's what you do in that situation. Then I walked into a building and got eaten. Fun times. Can't wait until I get home from work to play some more! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicko2580 398 Posted February 15, 2014 It will get worse..... and you'll probably enjoy it even more!Yes... I can see this happening already. I've read up a bit now though, so my next run will hopefully last a little longer. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Makrilli 2 Posted February 15, 2014 If you want to have more fun, I'd suggest to go and find a clan ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicko2580 398 Posted February 15, 2014 Nah, not for now at least. I like the solo survivor gig. I'm not particularly concerned if I get KoS'd a lot. Maybe it'll bug me after a few weeks and I'll clan up. But for now I'm going to roam the wilds of Chernarus alone and see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pvt_Larry (DayZ) 98 Posted February 16, 2014 I'd totally join the Union of Man; but wait- DID YOU JUST TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB!!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicko2580 398 Posted February 16, 2014 No. No I didn't. You must have misread. *eyes Pvt_Larry pointedly* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
