DayZ
DayZ Fresh Spawn to First Base
DayZ fresh spawns die on the coast because they loot like it is a mall. Food, a melee, then inland is the real first quest.
Calories before kalashnikovs
Fruit trees and wells keep you alive. A gun with no food is a loud way to starve.
Avoid inland towns on day one if you still look like a freshie. You will lose the fight and the beans.
A stash is a base
A drybag in a bush beats a castle you cannot defend. Log the grid.
Do not build where people drive. Roads are patrols.
Meet players on your terms
Voice in a town is a coin flip. Have an exit bush before you say hello.
