draven501 10 Posted July 21, 2012 I have been looking for a new vehicle for some time now, I had an ATV but it got flipped so I had to abandon it. I have been looking in the NW corner of the map to no avail. I am aware of vehicle spawn maps and vehicle hoarding.I was wondering if anyone could provide some tips on finding vehicles.

Quagmire (DayZ) 119 Posted July 21, 2012 Become a hunter.. study the map, think "if I was a lesser intelligent being where would I hide my vehicle.."That's how you find vehicles on top of mountains/hills, just NE or Stary and other various obvious places. This is going on the premise that the server you're on isn't run by moronic server admins who lock the server on restart to hoard all the vehicles. When that happens, make sure you find a satchel charge or two then normally edge of the map material. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quagmire (DayZ) 119 Posted July 21, 2012 Thanks for the advice :)No problems at all buddy! Just remember if you do find a vehicle, somewhere you might think is a really good hiding location could be a really obvious position for a logical thinker. Think outside the box and you should have a glorious vehicle for some time while you play "low rider" and cruise through Cherno without a care. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jesse_thornhill@hotmail.ca 4 Posted July 21, 2012 pick a high pop server, draw red lines from each big city to each place, blue lines from all the small ones big ones xtc, citys to dearstands, and look outside of the boundries the map has created, or server hop on skalka bound to find 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
draven501 10 Posted July 22, 2012 Thanks for the advice guys, but I found this vehicle like most find thiers, I had ran out of water and was making my way back to civilization when I stumbled upon it. A white Toyota Hilux pickup just sitting there in it's original spawn point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
