How to team up with your friend, any good hints ?

Hello,

me and my friend we saw this game and from the beginning on we loved it .... We both bought this arma2 addon some days ago and now we want to start to play together. But here´s the problem. We spawn randomly like any other but are there any good tips how we can meet ? Usally we are looking for signs to check in which city we are but mostly we fail.

I found a good map with all cities on it but I am wondering if there are any other good methods to find your friend ingame ?

Does anyone has some good tips for us ? We would appreciate it ...

When you first spawn the bottom right corner of your screen will tell you where you are. It only stays up for 1-2 seconds when you first spawn so make sure you pay attention. Use http://dayzdb.com/map to find where you both are. If you aren't near each other. Just have someone keep respawning until you're near each other. Then you both just follow the coast until you run into each other. If you both stay on the coast water line you shouldn't miss your friend.

Thank you. This is the map I found and use. But we were not able to locate ourself easely on it :)

This is really a good hint. Thank you. I will pay attention to it. I have not recognised it until now. I think this will help us a lot :)
