RedSage 9 Posted July 18, 2014 I was in a situation a couple of years ago in the freezing cold with 8 plus feet wearing snow shoes and I had to use real survival skills. So playing DayZ I had the idea to use it as a medium to teach some of the survival skills I know and used. This is really my first time trying to teach this kind of stuff so any feedback would be awesome. If there is anything all of you want to learn if I know how to do it I will teach it as best as I can. This video is about how to set up a fire to always light and last longer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rr4A5HsM-9E&list=UUoOIof3Md7KjtjfICbCQBFg 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Raptor 191 Posted July 18, 2014 So it's basically you running in circles in DayZ while telling people how to build a camp fire. As informative as the audio is, the movie isn't very interesting. Judging from the videos I've so far seen linked, people like torture better. Hint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously was not meant that way and although the guy who made the movie got it, some random dude who decided to join in on the conversation from his high horse did not. Hint.

Yeah, the problem with DayZ at the moment is that it is probably not realistic enough and you would be missing out on a lot of steps to demonstrate. At this point surviving in your own backyard would probably be more realistic than DayZ is. Especially the part where you are not supposed to drink the water ... Maybe the mod would be a little more suitable, a bit more survival stuff from what I recall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
