Ooh, great... so... now what?

So I wandered about a bit, got myself a 1911 with 3 mags, lots of drinks, food, medicine.Thought to myself, "Wow, I'm doing rather well". So I went on a bit of a wander trying to find maybe a good primary weapon, I'd be really set then. Then wandering on, moving away from towns, since I heard that the hunting posts have good loot sometimes. Fast forward about 20 minutes, I found a lovely little lake, and next to it I found a fully functional truck. "Oh boy, those zombies will never know what hit them when I'm cruising around in this thing." I thought. It was a bit low on fuel so I decided to take a look if there was any fuel canisters nearby. And there it was, like digging up the holy grail in your back yard, a stockpile of weapons and ammo and tools and fuel and everything I could possibly dream of. M107, DMR, several AKMs, AKs, M1014, Lee Enfield, M14 with a red dot sight, probably around 15-20 different weapons and more ammo than I could count. Plus maps, watches, knives, axes, matches, water flasks, etc. Then I got worried that maybe someone owns this stuff and wants it back, so I took off and rode far away. Then I killed a few boars, cooked em up, went for a swim, stole a bike from a zombie and mocked him with it... and then... it hit me... I have enough supplies and weapons to arm a full platoon, enough fuel to circle the map several times and no reason to ever go back into a town...

So... what do I do now? The only thing I can think of is just starting to hunt other players for my own sick and twisted personal amusement.

PS. If you happened to own such a truck...

Well what do other people do when they have everything they could possibly need? I sure as hell aren't going to sit logged in picking my nose for several hours waiting for my character to go hungry or thirsty or someone to shoot me from a mile away. And if this is all there is to it... it's about as much fun as survival mode in minecraft without the digging and the building. (Not very.)

Yeah, we came across the same problem (see http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/33897-whats-endgame-metagame-gonna-be-like/ ).

At this point you can pretty much just hunt other players until we get the standalone version which is hopefully gonna introduce stuff like player built structures

I'd get the largest backpack I could find, take the best assault riffle, the best sniper riffle (you can put 1 primary in your backpack) and the best pistol. Drive the truck to the shore, ditch your gear in a bush (backpack and all) drive the truk into the ocean, swim back, get your gear and continue on the way.

You dont want anyone else finding the cache while you are logged off and using those weapons on you later.

Oh wait, I did this about a week ago. People need to hide their camps better.

You try to survive. I've been in yourposition a few times now. You continue to loot, find s tent, store wespons, get more tents, make a base camp, and see ow many days you can survive. I feel bad for the players who get bored and shoot other players. It can be fun, but go back to CoD if you're done with the game.
