Suzie (DayZ) 13 Posted July 14, 2012 I only just rolled into DayZ this week and for a while been stuck on finding just hatchets and loads of ammo.Last night however finally managed to find myself some guns.First gun I managed to get my hands on was a fancy AK-74 :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted July 14, 2012 A shotgun for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flawlesssoul 30 Posted July 14, 2012 First gun I found was a Lee Enfield, and a single mag. Aptly named the Dinner Bell, as the first time I pulled the trigger it took less than a minute to die.After that, I picked up (variously) a Crossbow, a Makarov PM, a double-barreled shotgun, and a Winchester. Not all at once, obviously. Some were discarded for others, some were lost when I died a few times.I've now settled on an AKM and a 1911. If I come across another crossbow, however, I'll likely grab that and store it. The 1911 is a fantastic weapon, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrithu 59 Posted July 14, 2012 The first gun I found was on my fourth try I think. I was crawling to Komarovo from the south industrial buildings and as I went through a bush in front of the track I suddenly had an AKM in Hands along with 5 magazines. I crawled back to the industrial building went up to the roof and started killing zeds until I ran out of ammo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadManDan 23 Posted July 14, 2012 Makarov. I then shot some zombies and immediately discovered the reasoning behind not starting with a gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrithu 59 Posted July 14, 2012 I then shot some zombies and immediately discovered the reasoning behind not starting with a gun.Yes I know what you mean and I think it's also the reason why people are playing it more as some sort of FFA or Team Deathmatch.If Zeds were more of a challange people were much more inclined to make friends and help each other out, I guess. As soon as you've got a weapon you're practically invincible to Zeds as long as your ammo does not run out. It simply get's boring pretty fast to take on zombies. Taking on other players at least is challanging.Sorry for this kind of off-topic post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lethal (DayZ) 2 Posted July 14, 2012 First gun I picked up 5 minutes after my first spawn. I put a bullet in one of the zombies brains and before I know it, every zombie across the fucking map was running towards the sound of me ringing the dinner bell.
