  • After spending my first 100 hours of DayZ on community vanilla servers, I decided to try out official servers to see what they're like and how long I could survive. I ended up finding an SVD and running into some action with a few other survivors. I hope you all enjoy!

      I’m late, but if you haven’t already, I recommend playing Livonia
      Actually so refreshing to play a more condensed map after 500+ hours on chenarus

      Is it really surviving if you have an svd? At that point you're thriving

    Loot feels so scarce on official servers. Bases galore are stacked with it I’m sure. Love the vid BTW!

    • @scholarcormier
      @scholarcormier  Před rokem

      I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Loot definitely felt a bit more scarce than the vanilla servers I've played on it, but that did make it feel that much better to actually find some nice weapons, ammo, and gear!

    • @allrebel5943
      @allrebel5943 Před 6 měsíci

      Easiest way to speedrun loot on official is joining a low-med pop server, getting a pump with a couple buckshot & ratting spawn until you hear the glories M4/AK guy popping shots.
      Literally over 80% of the time my kits come frm spawn after killing guys who ran back north instead of spending hours down south looting it all myself

    Great vid, Would be nice to see some interaction, the guy drinking at the well could have been approached and who knows what adventure that could lead to :)

    • @scholarcormier
      @scholarcormier  Před rokem

      Much appreciated!! Yeah, friendly interactions with strangers are definitely one of the best parts of DayZ! I start to get a bit wary when one person is way more geared though, which I could definitely try to work on a bit. Almost all of my team ups with strangers have happened near the coast when both parties don't have much and those always end up being the best time!

    Another nicely done video! Comment - at night, throw the glow stick in the direction you want to move, but wait a bit to see if the light attracts anyone/any thing. It is server dependent (light efficacy) but it can sometimes help navigate from a → b. Question - why take the time to dissect the dead players?

    • @scholarcormier
      @scholarcormier  Před rokem

      Thank you! That's a great tip for nighttime! I'll have to try that. As for the dead players, there wasn't any particular reason, I was just in that sort of mood haha

    Are cheaters really that common in official servers? I'm a new player and I'm not really aware of these things yet

    • @scholarcormier
      @scholarcormier  Před rokem +1

      I've heard that it takes much longer for cheaters to get banned on official servers because they have to get caught by auto-detection which can take quite a while, whereas on community servers, they get reported to admins and dealt with more quickly! I'm also relatively new to the game and didn't run into any cheaters on this run, though. It was very enjoyable 👍

      Yes. In EU servers EVERY SINGLE of my official characters gets killed by a cheater if I survive long enough.

      This run went pretty well for me and I didn't see any! But my friend and I did run into a hacker messing with us as fresh spawns on official last Saturday. I don't think they're so big a problem that you can't play official at all, but if you play official enough you will run into one sooner or later and it's pretty lame
