I've noticed your first stage of hunger as a fresh spawn is the hardest. Once you get yourself going you can run your ass off as much as you want. My hunger hardly ever goes down. But the early stages of hunger and thirst happen fast as hell.
@@cm93431 Just generally it’s extreme for the first bit, maybe because you were shipwrecked and woke up on the beach? Idk. But eating anything seems to fix it. After about the first in game day/night with at least having some food, it starts to rebalance.
I actually kinda like that about this game though. I usually hate RDM but I like the irl apocalypse survivor feel the game has. If you want to be friendly you have no idea if others will be.
«Don’t leave the coast until you’re fat» :D ok - I’ll try that because I’ve died of starvation so many times pushing inland as I heard that was the best thing to do
I've been playing for 3 days, probably 18-20 hours total, and have never seen a stone. I honestly figured they got nerfed in the most recent update and the guides just haven't caught up.
A pimp Named Slickback yea but the thing is is that you got to go down rail roads and paths wich you never go on if your looking for a knife for the chicken you killed on a beach
@@Horse_fast Oh, I've been up and down both and just haven't seen any. I'm fairly new to the game, and have definitely googled it just because I've gotten stuck on servers with almost no early game knives.
A pimp Named Slickback well I’m not a “veteran” by any means but from experience I can tell you this You will die... like.. ALOT You just got to find a spawn and get lucky maybe even let the server reset a few times before you come back But always prioritize finding a knife and always remember fishing as an option And remember to ready the fish with a knife
⚠️UPDATE⚠️ *I have posted an updated guide on finding food for 2021-2022 here:* ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yhECMBui-6w.html *Berries have been removed from the game to, "Help reduce server performance issues."*
Stones, men, all depends, I find it way easier with a loot route n killing wolves and dear gettin full water avoiding any desease, however u got to find a knife n count on some delicious pears n beans to achieve it so far it using when u die from a bug or a rollback…
My biggest issue is how quickly one dies without food and water. Should be able to last 3 days Malnourished and Dehydrated, with a stat debuff occurring. In my opinion. But all in all...a fun game.
I was playin' dayZ, when I had the flu and the bubbleguts irl, and came around a corner and ran into a nigga with a shotgun. I jumped, screamed like a girl, sharted in my drawers, and got shot in the head.
@@apimpnamedslickback6757 ahahahh same thing it was middle of night and i was inside a house and when i opend the door and saw a crouching dude with a shotgun i screamed and i woke up my parents lol
I don't think people realise how difficult dayz is until you first load in.People think that they will find it easy and build a massive base the first time they play.You probably won't even get a decent gun until you understand the game and the map
I've been playing for a solid week and I just got ahold of the Python. I've been through maybe about ten characters, and starved to death about half the time?
A very useful guide. I reccomend all players watch your DayZ Guide videos. I’ve learned so much throughout the years using them. If anyone reads this and plays DayZ, show a friend this channel, it will make you and your crew highly skilled amongst the rest of Chernarus.
It’s really easy to find food and water on DayZ once you get the hang of the game I used to die all the time and when I found food it was like finding a rare gun but once you get the hang of the game it’s easy to find resources.
Also this game keeps spawning me in the middle of freaking nowhere there's no houses in sight I run until I die and still don't see a single house, fruit tree, hay bale... Or nothing... just Open Fields with trees and absolutely nothing...
I never clicked on a video so fast. I do have to disagree with the hunting, if you find cows, pigs, or sheep they let you get close enough to beat them with a mele weapon. The trick is once you hit them let them run because farm animals just stop like 50m away if you don’t chase them. Cooked animal fat is like 10 cans of food
Me an my buddy spent 4 hours trying to find each other . I found him than died from hunger than he found me an died of hunger 🙃 but at the end of the night we met up in cherno with loads of apples heheh
This is great advice but if you find a cow or a goat or pig just go for a headshot from like 6 meters away. A well placed buckshot or Powerful enough bullet will take down goat or pig instantly. The cow will probably fun a few dozen yards before it can’t go any further and just collapses or needs another well placed bullet to finish it off. My favorite hunting rifle is the .357 carbine repeater or any of the 3 shotguns in the game. Also don’t hoard food until you’re character is geared and you have a camp going. By camp I mean a tent or a base or just a place where you can bury a stash at the minimum. When you find it just eat it. A whole cow will pretty much give you the surplus of calories you need to cross the map and make get halfway back on the round trip.
I like the new sectioning out feature you used on this Dayz Guide. Your channel helps me and my clan and anyone we meet become better at the game, Thanks Archie.
I'd actually say never just munch whatever food you spawned with right away as you can save it for when either your hunger or thirst go red. Eat it 2-3 min after you started losing health so you can regenerate it before losing health again, extending your range even further.
FLOFLOFLO46 yah either way you’re using those calories at the same rate, if I eat it 1 meter and travel 1000 but eat it at 900 meters at 1000 meters I’d be the same hunger as u
Lets be honest tho, you would really last for days without food. You wouldnt die before the night is over from freaking starvation. If they are aiming for a realistic game, that would be a good place to start. I believe everyone is frustrated with the game because its unrealistically hard to get food and water and you die unrealistically fast from the lack thereof.
Cool! I just bought DayZ and Livonia for PS4 as it is on discount on PSN and this is very helpful. I will try to follow your advice as well as possible!
Thanks for the guide, appreciate you man. I really wish they gave you some extra time without eating before you dien Eating every 5 min sucks ass & getting that constant vomiting disease for absolute no reason.
Thanks man, really helps. I just recently got the game and have made quick progress but the food loot is clearly an issue. This has helped quite a bit. Big thanks!👊
As for stone knives, I learned that you can use a hammer to break a boulder to get a rock and then split the rock and you will have a bunch of tiny stones.
lol fucking WHAT? In order to make a STONE KNIFE, THE most primitive tool ever, you need a hammer. Because all those millions of stones by the railroad tracks are unusable. All the rocks I pass by don't actually exist, and in order to get two ROCKS I need a tool that's WAY MORE ADVANCED. This game is ridiculous.
Love this vid! Great job! Last night I was watching some livonia streamer raged so hard, cause he couldn’t find food in chernarus. Kept sprinting and dying of hunger. I should of sent him this vid lol
Awesome guide dude 😎 good humour aswell lol thanks for taking the time to upload it. Just bought the game today and died a few times already due to hunger lol found a tin of beans n thought it would save my life but had no way to open them lol I'm learning haha
It's not only just people not understanding how to survive, it's that some servers have no loot at start or is so rare you die trying to get to the middle of the map where loot actually is!
@SharkTank 100% bet half of us console users have more money than you we go for simplicity and a laid back gaming style not sweaty nerd like you get a wash you cheese hoarding scrote
@SharkTank pal I work I don't have time to deal with a fucking pc and play it all the time like a fucking nerd there are better games on console pcs are for nerds who live off of mummy n daddy
Made it to north east airfield. Luckily no one was there and I had the airfield to myself. Unfortunately, I only found clothes and no vests or guns and afterwards I starved to death and got shot in the head
I ate about a dozen baked and smoked wolf steaks all at once and it barely filled my gut. Fruits seem to be the most plentiful food when you recognize what trees they're on. Found one stone in three weeks if playing but I haven't spent much time on the trails either, mostly roads and cross-country.
I miss the days where finding food was a challenge, it was all so new and exciting and I had no idea what the hell DayZ was going to throw at me next. Though I still love DayZ of course but the challenges are very different to the early struggles (will I ever find an SVD lol?)
Dude I love your videos please don’t stop making these videos I’m going to watch all of them and get better at day z love this game and I think your videos are informational and very cool to watch. Good job bro!
Same here love heading north fishing set up my camp and cast into the lakes rarely another survivor comes I'll give them food but of course you get kos
I'm of the opinion the old mod for ArmA 2 was better than the standalone. Every grocery store and hospital I have been in has been 100% empty. At least in the old mod there would be one or two things there. As for small stones? Never found one, not once.
Hey people In the comments idk if he put this in the video but I use this off basic knowledge. If you hear a turkey kill it and make a fireplace lit outside. This is super easy to do and you get two chicken meat and it replenishes your hydration aswell! All you need is a cutting object
Biiiiiig tip here. Once your food and water "meters" look full, you can actually still eat and drink a LOT, You're only actually full when the food/water stop going up despite you eating/drinking. Eat literally everything you find immediately until you're completely full, if possible. You won't need to eat or drink for a very, very long time. Just remember to stop eating for a min if you get the stomach churning symbol, you'll puke otherwise.
Announcing my bed wetting to the world was just wrong! That aside Thank you so very much for this guide. Now onward I sprin........I mean jog to find two stones to eat and a box to make into a knife!
If devs add a possibility to cut off parts of rotten food, so we can eat it safer (but not 100% safe), finally more survivors will be able to solve food problem.
Noob here. Let's see how this works out. Been playing a couple hrs and dying of hunger every time within the first 15-25 mins. I'm pretty annoyed. I don't sprint, I avoid the rain and zombies but can't find any meals in buildings. I did eat a dude once, human steak made me vomit 😆
I literally came across a light house once i saw the ladder i heard flies i looked down there was 8 dead survivors and im assuming suicide because any of them couldnt find loot 😭 i went ahead and joined them 🕊
