    If any new players are looking at this and thinking about picking the game up; First off I highly recommend. Haters are gonna say it’s the buggiest game on the market but I just haven’t seen that side of it, maybe it’s because I play on a slightly modded hardcore server but it runs extremely well - better than I thought. Second, walk into it expecting to go through a whole new “Dark Souls” learning curve and if you’ve never been through something like a souls game just steel yourself for an unforgiving challenge.
    You’re going to starve, you’re going to dehydrate, you’re going to get lost, you’re gonna lose your gear, you’re gonna die. Simply the nature of the beast and unfortunately before you can properly prevent a mistake, you will have to make it, die and then learn from it.
    First time I got some actual gear and food to survive, I skinned a chicken, shortly after I took a sip from my water bottle with bloody hands - got cholera. The hospital was picked clean of pills. Died shortly after. Never recovered my shit.
    First time I ever made it inland to get the REAL loot, I got scratched by a zombie.. no biggie though because I had rags - non-disinfected rags. Bam, got a wound infection. High fever and blurry vision with constant water loss, not a hospital for literally kilometers. Ended up using the one chambered round in my handgun to end the run there.
    Bring your perseverance because this game is all about learning from your mistakes, but I love the challenge and it’s a hell of a vibe when you’re playing, alone in the quiet just listening to the howling wind in a hollow world, it’s wicked and can get your heart to race when you get yourself into some trouble.
    Thanks for listening to my TED Talk.
    PS. My tip: look up the iZurvive map for your preferred map you play on. It’ll become your best friend.

Will cost me a round 2.3k but dayz and rust will run great. Much better then console and have all the extras in modded servers.
      Yes if you die you can find your body and collect ya stuff but I think you have an hour to find your body. May have change idk. Also use Facebook to help fi d some good friends or roam around being friendly until a group take you in or even build a group over time.

    i have a good tip for you, the best item in the game: multivitamins. people ignore these, but when consumed and the pill icon appears, you are resistant to the main 3 viruses. you can drink from rivers, eat/drink with blood on your hands, withstand the rain, eat raw meat etc. and be completely free of risk of infection!!

To avoid cholera dump out all the water in any bottle or canteen you find as there is a 50/50 chance it will have cholera, or just use chlorine tabs to purify it. Wells can be drank from safely and also fill up bottles and canteens without risk of infection so familiarize yourself with them. I just stared playing about 8 days ago myself so I hope this helps!

      @@mikster313 Being cold and wet is what leads to being sick. Dry your clothes off and stay warm to fight off sickness faster, try not to be drenched and make sure your gear has high or best insulation. You can get infections which counts as sickness from using rags that havent been disinfected as well to mend bleed status. I think if you use a pristine knife to cut said rags you wont get an infection from them but Im not 100% sure on that part. Eating raw meat, or eating with bloody hands can get you sick as well. You can also get sick by being close to a player who is sick without a face covering on as well.

    If you're standing next to a fire to dry out, remove your clothes and drop them next to you. They will dry much faster.
    Standing by a fire until a + appears next to your temp will make you more resilient to the cold.
    If you roll your car, a wrench (not the adj one) will right it again (not tested this myself yet).
    Instead of carrying 10 blades, carry 1 and a sharpening stone.

    Tips: 1) if your holding down a building when someone is trying to kill you place a glow stick or light on the bottom of the stairs so when they are about to push you, you can see they’re shadow coming up.
    2) if someone is about to come kill you, do the laying down emote and pretend your dead. It will look like your dead. (Works better when there’s dead zombies by you or other dead players)
    3) if your running into a gun fight and have a sniper or extra gun on you, drop it into a bush or somewhere, where you will remember. That way if you die in the fight you can run back to the extra gun. Pointless to fight with multiple guns when only using one. (Works best when your close to a spawn point)

    About finding water in bottles and canteens, DO NOT spill it if you have no other option of calming your thirst (such as decent supply of sodas or other canteen/bottle). It's better to risk getting cholera then dying for sure because of dehydration.

    3:13 this is no longer a good idea, as if you just let it bleed you will now get wound infections. This can be prevented by bandaging the cut with a disinfected bandage, but you will quickly end up with no bandages.
    *Bandages can be disinfected with alcoholic tincture and iodine tincture*

      Honey is antibacterial, garlic as well iirc.
      Black pepper can stop bleeding but is risky because of infection.
      Hair can also help to bandage a would but you have to keep it clean.. I wouldn't suggest this in real world but in game being able to cut hair with sharp rock to press into wounds would be cool if it was possible but risk of infection if not sanitized. Fire and any metal tool to cautorize would, also wouldn't do that. Ouch, super infection maybe.
      Applying pressure to wound option and being able to move to help stop blood loss would be excellent.

      @@ploxarino9921 if we could heat up a blade or rock and cautorize wounds I'd be happy with that.. but ies should be sanitized to prevent infection along with wound. Mgs 3 had a wound management system and order of operations for burns, cuts, broken bones. Burncream, bandage. Disinfect, suture, bandage.
      Day z could be much more relentless experience if weapons did damage bases on pointieness, blunt, or bullet.
      If it was that way people would die more often, imo.
      We'd need classes that players could pick from or books players can find to boost knowledge.. literally performing surgery in base on classes who get hurt. Making cars more easily repaired to just be in running condition. All the ideas I have day z would have to release another game based on more modern city and countryside region.
      The maps building and forest are alright but if cities where like American suburbs it'd be hopping back yard fences and triggering solar powered driveway lights and zombies running toward the light yelling. Player runs into an American themed house around 200,000 range. These homes are the best because in America homes on the same block usually match in cost and design. Medium sized so plenty of room to spawn loot, hide from zombies.. Im trailing off.

  • @PolarIre
    @PolarIre Před 2 lety +2

    Game is great on console, there's no build guide you have to just know the recipe like one hour one life. If there was journal's that spawned with advice or plastic cards that spawned on book shelfs or in dead survivor bodies (not players, "random dead surviver") these plastic cards have tips pertaining to topics, fire, water, cooking, food and water management; inside baseball caps, beanies, any hat type. Each hat can have pockets sown into it, military helmet get an external pocket for smokes, survival cards, matches, small items, ghillie masking. Pockets can be added but inside the hats the space is limited to card type, 1 box matches, pocket knifes-small type, tiny 1 blade knife.
    Spawning of small stone could be more frequent, when in the outdoors there are stones in fields, maybe a variety oh stone amd some just crumble into powder which can be smelled with a smelter out of a barrel to make iron, copper, gold bars. Gold to repair nvgs, obsidian.
    Longer nights and days with reduced food burn.. it feels like day slips away half an hour to early.. makes for tense moments, life's can be short existence... so idk.
    Dayz could get better and better if devs keep updating it.. if engine that runs day z can handle it.
    Not a clue how much a game can handle for mechanics, assets, and all that before it breaks. Far cry 3 showed limits of objects per map chunk so you had to build a large city on 4 chunk meeting to maximize object count.. but that was years ago. Developers probably have way more freedom creating.
    More detail, forest and country side updates is what I hope for. Random power station kicking on and power light up cities in rolling blackout would be cool, which could aggro all the zombies in the area. More zombies in forest but just a few randomly.. or horde walking straight.. more like 28 days later.
    Day dream about how wild day z could get.. I can do this all day.
    Edit: battlefield 3 had destructible buildings, smaller buildings walls collapsed and rubble damaged players, still in game only many buildings in game like on siege of Shanghai won't collapse.. main tower animation for other buildings.
    If you could get c4 or dynamite in day z to collapse towers into a base wall and build with concrete rubble, dozer that is a map editor.. diggers, military bridges.
    Dayz Squads Mountain Man
    There's beacons inland the further you go, players on servers can chose the map chunk that generates further inland where no players are. A.i. that can spawn enemies like giant boars, bears, packs of wolf's, deer.. reindeer migration, elk..
    Left for dead zombies... Best zombies.
    The danger from a.i. bandits like mgs 3 a.i. and environment could help players band together. Dragons and tanks, the road..
    Zombie animals, red dead online. Bears where like fallout bears..
    Custom servers with easy to understand difficulty rating, each server diffrent... community can vote on entire server chunk to be blended together for continent.. mmo phase. Of the serverbunch. . Space flight. Moon. Mars.. joke.
    Edit: need more small game like rabbts, squirls, birds, mountain lions,wolf's, fox, pheasant, cordage from grass in fields or tree roots with rocks, which can spawn around rivers and rock piles near rivers. Along em there's always sharp rocks. More shrubs, spreading shrubs. Certain food like rabbit eat doesn't give fat calories which could be a small sliver of health along side the heart. Vitamin c from none poisonous trees, options for more poisons plants and mushrooms.
    3 long sticks, 8 long sticks and rope makes a smoker, place meat and veggies on smoker, add canvas, tarp or animal pelt to smoke meat faster which is good for 7 days. Fish provides oil. Stones can be ground down with flat rocks next to rivers to make knifes amd axes. Cordage cloths from plant's, pelts can be tanned with animalparts and water (kinda dark, sry), log from a tree that has no bark could be used with a flat stone to remove fat and then place in animal parts brine in large clay pot depending on game size.. scrap off fur. Use log to make buckskin.
    Snakes, mountain elephants..
    More ready access to vehicles like books that can guide players through restore but thier rare or at library sometimes. Farming book, medical aid and cards which improve health item effectiveness. Character sheet that you can pick stats like morrwind... so more agility and lessstrength.. willpower to resist passing out. Random thought,
    Fallen trees make bugs players can eat, mark beetles,grasshoppers in the morning amd dew on grass. Animals feed on morning cycles and rest in grass beds sometimes. Hunt, chicken coups.. barbe wire and logs/sticks makes wire fence to pen farm animals. Rope a cow or two and ranch. Grass and scythe make bundle dry in 3 days. Spiders, scorpions, river bugs, dragon flies, butter flies, and collector trays.
    Building options beyond square like in game building as bud option if terrain is flat.. let players make cities.
    Edit. Honey is antibacterial, garlic as well iirc.
    Black pepper can stop bleeding but is risky because of infection.
    Hair can also help to bandage a would but you have to keep it clean.. I wouldn't suggest this in real world but in game being able to cut hair with sharp rock to press into wounds would be cool if it was possible but risk of infection if not sanitized. Fire and any metal tool to cautorize would, also wouldn't do that. Ouch, super infection maybe.
    Applying pressure to wound option and being able to move to help stop blood loss would be excellent.
    Rivers could produce glass bottle which could spawn on ground in shallow water by the shoreline of large bodies 9f water in piles of 10 sometimes more depending on the rng. Sometimes you find a few whiskey bottles, bottles from a couple cases, if ground decoration assets could be picked up even rivers pebbles or mud if paint texture was considers either or. Grass could be moss. Even leafs could be tinder or combustible but make darker smoke if still green. Like burning green tress or busses you make more smoke while dry stuff is more clear.
    Super harsh storms with pelting rain and tornados, hail stones that do minor damage with knockout. Coast could have stronger winds to push against players walking for faster pace, less Stat drain, and currents in rivers and ocean.. that are reasonable, and not crazy!
    Would devs take suggestions?
    It's thier game...still fun to think of mechanics
    Edit: wildlife must be rare, maybe a chicken once a day.

    The leather tip is super helpful, j thought you needed a barrel and water to tan the hide with lime. Gonna try this right away!

    There's something special in the way he says "blood".
    Deadass could have an hour long video of him just saying that word, it's weirdly satisfying.

    Excllent vid man, but you missed Chlorine tabs, which have the same effect as disinfecting the bottle and makes the contents safe so even if youre not near a well the water in them can still be drunk!

    Watched over a 1,000 hours of day z gameplay, I finally have it! Started playing a few days ago and instantly went braindead. Know most of it but been trying to meet up with my twin brother irl in day z and haven't reached each other yet. But think I've found a way with the sun and compass.

    Just two pointers. Firstly and it's just a nitpicking, it's not a hunting shop, but rather groceries as that's what's written over the entrance. Secondly, I always empty the water containers I find, but I never disinfect them and I'm yet to get any disease from them, so I don't think it's a necessary step and emptying them is enough.

      Curious about this one. Haven’t heard disinfecting mentioned until this video and a comment above where dude said he kept getting sick...

      Playing on console though ive tried my pc as well. I think its meant to need the tincture but not implemented yet for console as a buddy of mine tipped me onto this. Honestly i just use charcoal tabs if possible within a full container, multi vitamins, and/or tetracycline pills. Those seem to be full proof at least for consoles. Even without charcoal tabs you'll be fine so long as you use the other two.

    I actually found a stash because I saw a random tree cut down in the middle of nowhere and knew the trick

  • @Larrybobangles
    @Larrybobangles Před 3 lety +2

    If your sick from human meat and have the giggles you can get rid of it by eating multivitamins and tetracycline at the same time. Takes a couple but works.
