.TerroR. 1 Posted October 10, 2012 I have been staying in one place for a while now (60mins) and my character has still full Drink and Food, last time i played and kept running to find a friend I was thirsty and needed some food. The question is... Do I need to be in movement so my character gets hungry and thirsty? I was also wondering where is the best place for searching for bigger back packs then the starting one.Please answer.Thanks for any answers and tips :)Regards TerroR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Welch (DayZ) 756 Posted October 10, 2012 Yup. Running makes thirst go down faster, and food is from being attacked and it goes down as you run.Notice when driving cars nothing goes down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521 Posted October 10, 2012 look in supermarkets, firestations and barracks for larger packs. Try setting your Debug monitor to default to get your hunger and thirst bars back to normal! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatherjohn 143 Posted October 10, 2012 Just make sure you dont have your debug monitor on...that's what i thought first. if you're debug monitor is on, your blood/food/drink icons will appear to freeze, but they are actually still draining 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RougeBronyNarwhal 12 Posted October 12, 2012 i am quite the noob at dayz, since ive only had it for 5 days so far and i havent found any locational items like maps watches compasses etc. or any other backpacks :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klesh 2423 Posted October 12, 2012 i am quite the noob at dayz, since ive only had it for 5 days so far and i havent found any locational items like maps watches compasses etc. or any other backpacks :(Have you checked out any grocery stores or office buildings? Both will have watches, maps and compasses, but I don't recall too many backpacks in offices. It might be worth a bit of a trek up north to some smaller towns that have one or both. Vybor comes to mind... Approach it from the SE for the least amount of agro zombies. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted October 12, 2012 Backpacks spawn in civilian housing. Grocery stores, office buildings and cafés have the most possible loot spawns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
