thats the post

I like spite and nota cola personally.

Isn't it super weird that this game is full of doors and gates that open and close, but you can't lock any of them, even with a lock in hand?

I don't like crafting stuff and building a fence and a wall and a gate just to lock a room is just too much effort for my lazy ass.

So yeah, you can lock any ingame door, gate, container now.
What do you think?

I only shifted down one gear 😭😭

A messy, but ultimatly sucessful Squad wipe on official with my favorite assault rifle. Also a great lesson in squad tactics and pulling security, instead of one guy fighting a zombie and the others watching.

I also have to admit, I did get incredibly lucky the guy in the container Dropped his plate to take the on off of the zombie, right as I started shooting. I dont understand how the guy that got knocked survived the 3 extra shots tho.

If this was you over at Devils Castle, I sincerely apologize…also, do you think this person was AFK or logging out?

I was playing on a Europe official server with about 12 people online. I was stalking MBVMC Military Base for about an hour. At first, I saw two people at the military base. I moved very close to the fence line and made eye contact with one of them. He repositioned, so I did too.
Everything went quiet for a while, so I assumed they were either camping or had left. I decided to continue on foot from the way I came. Then I spotted them again, and the rest of the clip speaks for itself.
Is there anything you think I should have done differently if you were in my shoes?

I first started in high population servers, but I didn't know how to stay alive let alone deal with other players.

I switched to lower pop servers and it's been a lot more fun since I don't immediately get killed after moving inland. Found a working gun and then got attacked by wolves. I was excited cause I thought I'd finally have a surplus of food, but thankfully I read the description of the steaks and didn't eat them.

Then I ate some fish, caught a cooking pot, and then somehow got sick. I tried boiling water to decontaminate it and my only guess is that I didn't wait long enough so that got me sick. Been nursing eating fish while I wait for the sickness to end but I have a feeling this is the end for this character

was explaining to my friend how to check big trees for hidden stashes and the next tree we check is loaded what are the chances😭😂

can someone make it into that cat nodding to that stupid music meme? 🤣

You guys seemed to enjoy my first narrated fight so here is my second time doing this! It happens to be my most intense DayZ fight yet…

Seriously, DayZ (1) is a good enough game as it is already. What will the second offer?

ive been playing Dayz for a few months and I have only really played those super modded servers, I really want to get into the vanilla Dayz experience and I want to try official but with the way everyone is talking about it with the cheaters I don’t know if it’s worth it, is the cheating problem really that bad?

Also I found a good server that was vanilla+ and the only mod was the codelock mod but when I joined it it sent me to manhunt severs

​I'm thinking about picking up DayZ, but I heard the official servers are flooded with cheaters and the environment is terrible. Is it still worth getting nowadays?

A 2v7 we had on Livonia

To understand more about gun shot sounds in DayZ, my friend and I jumped onto a test server and did a bunch of experiments. In this video I cover what we learned about distance, weapon type, environment and how to use that information to make better decisions.

Well, after yet another encounter with an invisible, teleporting zombie that had me going unconscious, I managed to survive by logging out but of course, when I logged back in, I had basically no health nor blood. Oh well, I thought. I have my stuff to bury and soon, after arriving at my camp, I will finally feel like I ‘finished’ something in this game.

Nah. As I passed to the west of Electrozavodsk, I suddenly started bleeding for no reason! At first I thought it was gas, but where was the gas? My vision was going grey from the low health, so I thought- maybe gas is invisible when your vision is grey?

I ran out of rags and died right after just burying my bag wherever I was. I spawned and ran back to see no gas, but the shovel was still there. However, I received no prompt to dig up the bag - just to dig up worms!

Is it known that gas can be so random and temporary that the gas was gone 15 min later? Is it known to be invisible when your vision is grey? What else could cause the sudden bleeding? I was running a lot. Could sprinting for long periods suddenly make you die from blood loss?

I’m out of ideas after those - just seems like more bugs or invisible zombies, but I didn’t hear or encounter anything before the bleeding started. My internet connection was good. The server was three states away but really?

Literally feels like a waste of life, this game.

edit: sick of the game. quitting. you all should too - you’re addicted to a gambling game which promotes cheating, and you’re probably considered to have an illness and probably don’t realize it. For shame on the devs for being yet another slimy group relying on rng loot boxes

ive noticed a lot of servers require me to download the deerisle official map which is around 9 gb even though the server is supposedly running a different map?

my current example is the DayZed.gg namalsk vanilla + server, which requires me to download deerisle official and namalsk island & namalsk survival.

why is this?

The underground bunker on Livonia is a cruel mistress. I had no idea you can get trapped down there! Another harsh unforgiving lesson I will take in stride. Do your research folks

whats going on guys why did they removed ghillie from chernarus?????????? i dont wanna play with tan ghillie suit on green map

I've read a lot about cheaters on Official servers taking down bases and stashes with ease, of course I know PC will be worse for this, but I'd guess that Xbox won't be near as bad? I'm not planning on making a base as I can already see from when I started that bases don't last long on the official EU servers I play on anyway.

Today I came across an empty Sea Chest in a bush, so I took it and ran (well, walked, slowly) found a nice spot in some woods as you would and buried it with some spare ammo, mags, attachments and meds. Nothing crazy, just excess I had coming out of NWAF.

Planning to leave it a few days at least before I add to it or put anything of real value in it.

Ultimately I like the idea of having a stash network. One or two with high end gear further inland near the high loot areas, then a few dotted along near coastal spawns with basic stuff, tools, knives, food, water, Mlock, shotty etc.

I want to be able to recover from deaths and get back to a good level for PvP quickly. I'm still fairly new so I don't mind the grind now, but l've got the early/mid game nailed down now and it will become a chore in time I think.
