Mark88 9 Posted August 27, 2012 FYI for new players, when you gear up and head north, don't just bounce into a town even if a low pop server. Use your binos and scan the area from a safe distance! just wasted 2 hours going to Stary and got shot crawling to grocery store cause Im an idiot. Ugh.

Ind0ctr1n3 5 Posted August 27, 2012 Actually, one of the best tactics is to keep on the move. Quick in-and-outs are preferrable, because even if the enemy spots you, they'll have a hard time tracking you. In my experience it's never wise to stay somewhere over 15 minutes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M O N S T E R 599 Posted August 27, 2012 No point crawling in this game, use buildings to lose zombies. Crawling just makes you an easy target - it's always harder to shoot a runner.-MONSTER 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hydra (DayZ) 472 Posted August 27, 2012 That and don't go on high pop servers :PI just now joined some random Dallas server and within 20 seconds of signing in, we all get teleported into the air. Good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skat3rat 1633 Posted August 27, 2012 Being quick to move is critical. When ever I go into a major city I move quick. Run from enter able building to enter able building as quick as possible. Loot as much gear as I can then get out. Crawling is only useful if you can't risk getting zombies' attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
