tanel66 0 Posted June 11, 2012 Hello everyone! So as you could tell by the title, I kinda got myself in a pickle. So today, I just logged in to DayZ, hoping to do some awesome surviving, and apparently, i picked a bad spot to log out, i logged in with 5k blood left, i quickly noticed and bandaged myself. Once i bandaged, i had 4K left, and after eating a bit, i now have 5K. I'm actually really afraid of dying now, because I got an alice pack, a remington, and an AKM. Beans only give 200 blood, and I can't use blood bags on myself (I don't have any, either.). I don't have a tinderbox which i could use to make a fire, and cook some meat, so i really don't know what to do. A little help please? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

b501 1 Posted June 11, 2012 go shoot a cow and cook the meat (: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack Lz 24 Posted June 11, 2012 if u cant run around to a couple of places and pick up those things, then get all the beans u can, as u said they give 200 health, 5 is 1000.btw its not a tinderbax, u need matches and wood, wood is in houses or can be chopped from a tree with a hatchet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackofblades72 17 Posted June 11, 2012 Go into a town carefully, get matches and whatever, hunt a cow and get some cooked meat. That's about it unless you have a friend who can give you a blood transfusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mansen 1 Posted June 11, 2012 Like B501 mentions, (sort of) you should get a hunting knife, a matchbox and a hatchet (or find a pile of wood). Hunt wildlife, cut their meat, make a campfire, cook the meat, enjoy 800BP food (a piece) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanel66 0 Posted June 11, 2012 Hell, I'd love to get some matches, I already have a hatched and a hunting knife, but it seems like tinderboxes are rare as hell... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mansen 1 Posted June 11, 2012 Too bad you can't improvise using a flare or possibly one of those burning barrels in the towns.(Or be able to forage mushrooms and such from the woodlands - but that is best suited for a suggestion thread) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blade (DayZ) 0 Posted June 11, 2012 All I can think is to keep hitting supermarkets and eat all the cans of food u can find, also there is a good chance of finding matches to light a fire at supermarkets, some people may not agree but after u finish looting log out and join another server then loot the same place again to speed things up although I wouldn't do this unless I was very close to death.

ABORT 5 Posted June 11, 2012 You can use the hobo fire in Balota med tents/military camp to cook meat. You don't need matches for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maca (DayZ) 769 Posted June 12, 2012 I'm actually really afraid of dying now, because I got an alice pack, a remington, and an AKM.Its a good thing being afraid, but dont get to attached to your gear.You will die maybe not today or tomorrow, all i can say is eat all the "beans" you can find.

FragMonkey 1 Posted June 12, 2012 Forget trying to get a bloodpack from someone. Not worth the riskRun around and look for an animal to kill and skin with a hunting knife. That will provide you 800 blood and you will be back up and running in no time. I have had cows give me 8 steaks before Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
