MAPS - Using these may ruin your initial sense of discovery Don't follow orders from other people if you think they're stupid. If you have to shoot a zombie, use a pistol or melee weapon to avoid alerting too many zombies. Stay low, stick to cover and do your best to remain unseen TO BE UPDATED: I'll be adding images of all the icons and a basic tutorial on how to play DayZ. YOU WILL NEED THE MOST RECENT BETA PATCH TO PLAY ON THE NEOGAF SERVER.
To get DayZ installed use the official updater: Quick install guide for non-steam users (courtesy of Hawk SE): Link! Some people want to live in a friendly community, some will do whatever it takes to survive and most just want to watch the world burn.Īrma2 (Full version or Free version) and Operation Arrowhead (Fully patched) Most of your time in DayZ will be spent in paranoia, deciding who to trust. The mod is still in Alpha so there are still some bugs to be sorted out, but if you like the idea of a true survival sandbox, I can't recommend this mod enough. Your character is persistent across all servers linked to the central server and if you die, it is permanent. Naturally, food, weapons and other useful items are scarce, so scavenging/hunting is the only way to survive. You have no map/compass and have no idea where you are. When you start off you have a flashlight, some water and a can of beans.
