hatfieldcw 184 Posted July 30, 2012 Survival isn't all it's cracked up to be. Staying alive for 75 days is all well and good, but it's just one of the ways to have a satisfying experience in DayZ. Go ahead and hit up Cherno and Elektro, learn how to run through a whole city full of zombies and loot a supermarket and a hospital without ever getting a weapon or taking a hit from a monster. See where the snipers hang out. Introduce yourself to the panicked survivors who start swinging their crowbars as soon as you enter the building (I find that, "Hey! Dickhead! What do you hope to achieve by shooting at me? You need a bandage so bad? I'll give you a bandage if you chill the crap out and be civil!" is a much better greeting than, "Friendly! Friendly! Friendlyfriendlyfriendlyfriendlyfriendlyfriendly!")Sure, you'll find yourself sitting on the beach seaweed on your flashlight more often that way, but you'll have good experiences with random dudes, and every so often you'll have an epic run.So try to stay alive, but don't be a little girl about it.
