nicraM 137 Posted August 19, 2012 The double barrel is horrible. But, once in a while it can bring the pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SillySil 295 Posted August 19, 2012 Spawn in cherno/electro, find a weapon, kill someone who has already gathered some equipment and take his loot. Save yourself trouble of scavenging. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ramatakahn 38 Posted August 19, 2012 4. Stock your bag up with Medical supplies such as 3 Blood bags/2 Morphines from the Hospital.Can't use blood bags on yourself, I don't even cayry them unless I'm with others, and then only one. Also, you didn't even mention pain killers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

longjohns (DayZ) 0 Posted August 19, 2012 Nice guide. To the above poster, so if you had low blood you'd rather just die than try to get someone to use it on you? nice choice. Don't mention eating food because that would take ages unless you were duping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes you can eat food and no it doesn't take ages when you hit a market up and there is usually plenty of food in it, not to mention hunting animals that give you 800 blood back per steak.

TGH 160 Posted August 19, 2012 I haven't met anybody who plays this game who DOESN'T know somebody or has a friend that plays aswell. Thats why I mention to grab a blood bag, becuase you can probably ask somebody you know to come and help you out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

foxdie_01 121 Posted August 20, 2012 Yeah. Unfortunately i think the more common way of doing things are:1. Visit undisclosed script website.2. Spawn weapon crate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
longjohns (DayZ) 0 Posted August 20, 2012 Yeah. Unfortunately i think the more common way of doing things are:1. Visit undisclosed script website.2.

Spawn weapon crate.Hope this stops soon, some how battleye learns to detect them, infact I'm not too bothered about those crates, what I HATE is when people slay the entire server, just spoils everybodys fun..

Went onto a 40 man server last night in Cherno, found an Enfield and took out a few bandits with it within a small time period (ENFIELD IS A LOUD BEAST) and recorded it, gonna upload that soon! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elasticz 35 Posted August 22, 2012 Survival RPG game? Nope. KOS FPS game. YES.Why do people even pretend this is anything but an FPS shooter... with the minor nuisance of zombies thrown in. All zombies do is make it easier top know if another player is nearby.Oh look zombies spwaned up ahead and we're too far away to spawn them. Someone must be there, lets camp them. Rinse and repeat.It never was a RPG, unless your definition is different then mine.In that case, I play the role of a psycopathic sniper who wants to see the world burn.

kebman 213 Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) Hi, I teach video production. I'm going to be extremely harsh, so brace yourself.Video tech:Your film uses way too much time on the intro. Also, you could easily shave off a lot of the time used to illustrate each thing. It will make the film much easier and fun to watch.Using nearly ten minutes to explain...1) find closest barn or factory, 2) supermarket for ALICE and map, 3) firestations for AK or M4, and 4) then loot heli crashes before you 5) go to NWA... is just a waste of everyones time.Also:You should illustrate where, and in what buildings, you can expect to find the items.You should also explain why and how a compass is useful to explain where enemies are firing from. In fact, there exist military tactics to explain enemy movement and contact efficiently. A tutorial on this would be nice. Sacriel is good at this, for instance.This video should be called "Become A Rich Mofo on Loot" instead of "Become A Killing Machine".Your video is all about finding loot, but there is no useful tactical advice on how to track, hunt and kill other players - the reason why I watched the whole thing in the first place. You do certainly not become a killing machine just by having a lot of loot. More likely you just become a fatter n00b target. So in your next vid, please explain more about how to track and hunt your target, instead of how to find loot.End of editing tech.---On to DayZ tech:Whenever you enter a building, except if it's in the woods, chances are good that you will find filled soda cans. Thus you only need to carry one or two.The water canteen is good when in the woods, but of these you also only need one or two.If I have a canteen or two, I usually don't bother picking up soda cans at all. I just drink them whenever I find them, and move on. Then I have the canteen as backup, for that one time when I'm shit out of luck. It buys me time to get into a building or find a water source.The only time I stock up on food and drink is before a sniping session where you need to lay prone for quite a while.A watch is indeed very much needed as you can use it for navigation during the day. Google "navigating with watch". Also, it's good to know that it gets darker until about eight in the evening, and that it gets lighter until roughly 4.30 in the morning.A compass is extremely useful both if you're alone or you play with a team. I can't understand why you claim it is not needed. It makes navigation so much simpler.Matches and knive without a hatchet makes it much harder to find fire wood.Sure, binos are self explanatory, but binos can also be the death of you if you use them incorrectly in the game. Whenever you crouch and use them in the open, you become a sitting duck. N00bs often make that mistake. Thus take care that you're hidden and in cover before using them. Using first person and heading into a bush is a good way to make sure you're well hidden.How many morphine you need, heavily depends on what you want to do. For city looting, you probably only need one, as there will be hospitals close. If you're a medic, or you're going to a dangerous place far from a hospital, you'll probably need a few more, but I usually stop at three, as the likelyhood of breaking a leg and fixing it three times in a row without dieing is at best remote.If you've got hunting equipment you don't really need blood bags unless you're with friends, as meat is good enough. Blood bags are for a crisis only, or when you're in a hurry.Not all server have waypoints activated.You don't have to kill all the zeds at heli crashes. If you do it right, you do not have to kill any of them. Bonus: Less chance a bandit will discover you.Last but not least, many of the low tier gun will be more than enough to hunt other survivors and bandits, if you just learn some basic military tac first.Awsome biking, though!
