Slackin 1 Posted August 2, 2012 I got this game 2-3 days ago and Its simply amazing. Probably the best zombie game hands-down. I have a few concerns though. Firstly, I always see people saying other players are the "real" threat, not zombies. In the 3 days i've been playing I have only seen maybe 3-4 people. I only play on servers with a minimal of 30 people. One tried to kill me for my shotgun, one guy was asking poll questions and then left me be, and another guy I was watching got swarmed by zombies and died. Next is weapons, where do people get any real weapons? The only thing I have found has been axe, crowbar, pistol, and once a double barrel shotgun. But I have been just dying and dying to get the feel for the game. I started playing for real today, I got a hold of basic stuff to cook food, bandages, drink, food, etc. I haven't died all day. But a zombie hit me and crippled me on the outskirts of a town. So I've been crawling everywhere, zombies don't pay much attention to me. I crawled all the way through the town and checked all the houses but no morphine. I'm deciding to let a zombie kill me or try to crawl somewhere else... I wish it would fix itself after 30 minutes or something, Or I could make a splint or something other than finding a rare item to fix myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tatakt 50 Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) which city you in? find a hospital, there is 100% always morphine there. -also for more weapons, just find a map like this http://dayzdb.com/map hit up every deer stand nearby your location. and hit up baracks in NW airfield, and the hangars.-barns are great for starter weapons, like lee enfields, cz550's winchesters and so on.

Slackin 1 Posted August 2, 2012 I think I'm just screwed, I don't have a map so I think it would be impossible to figure out which town i'm in. Its a random small one so I could either spend 3 hours crawling to a city or I could just start over =P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Afgoo 114 Posted August 2, 2012 With the gear you had, you may as well get yourself killed. Then, I would suggest hitting up Berenzino first thing! It's a city way up on the northern coast and is usually vacant.Make sure you look in the boxes in hospitals. I used to think they were just random objects, lol. They are actually filled to the brim with goodies.Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenX (DayZ) 7 Posted August 2, 2012 Yeap. It sucks having to kill your-self because of a broken leg and not having the stuff to fix it or being near enough to anywhere useful. Been there more than a few times. It sucks. Someone should mod the mod to have a "emergency splint" option. Firewood + Bandage = emergency splint good for 30 minutes of standing to get your ass to the nearest hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slackin 1 Posted August 2, 2012 Firewood + Bandage = emergency splint good for 30 minutes of standing to get your ass to the nearest hospital.MY GAWD! Best idea I've ever heard!!! I have both of those things on me so I would be ready to run to the nearest hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sneckz 15 Posted August 2, 2012 I think I read that in the next patch you can respawn if you have broken legs. Suicide just takes too damn long when you can only crawl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'll tell you, roughly, where you are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petermann2 19 Posted August 2, 2012 Follow the mainroad out of the town and watch out for a sign with the town's name. The name will be in russian so you'll probably need a map like this (http://dayzdb.com/map) to figure out where you are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slackin 1 Posted August 2, 2012 I was just finding my town, when hackers came in and insta-killed everyone -_- I guess that saves me the trouble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sostronk 334 Posted August 3, 2012 Make sure you find Morphine asap. Broken leg is the worst experience in this game imo. You have a chance to survive, but you might just bleed out without ever being able to find morphine. Remember not to prone through doorways, there is a bug that will break your legs this way. Always walk through doorways! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
