My Dayz loop. Spawn, walk for 10 minutes eat the one fruit you get, find nothing else and eventually starve. Rinse repeat. Yeah I don't know what I'm doing.
Those fruit trees are a real life saver man, thanks for the tip. Bought this game yesterday and kept dying over and over, I still die in an hour or two but with the fruit at least I have a fighting chance. And I'm slowly improving, don't intend to give up any time soon. Liked and subscribed!
Since watching your guides, I have ten fold improved my skills at DayZ. I love your DayZ School. It's like a college class, but for DAYZ. Everyone should take time to watch em' all.
Starvation is my biggest issue in DayZ, I always check trees and I never, NEVER seen so much fruit.. I've even checked every tree in an orchid... I didn't have enough calories and died right there under that druit tree.
I window shop as well.i never starve.luck not sure but I can get from coast to tisy in a hour pretty regularly.stay moving and eat everything you find as you find it.better to store calories then horde food.once your starving that one can of beans doesn't get you far!
I’ve tried all these methods and I haven’t actually survived without dying to starvation eventually. I’m pretty sure the developers have just made an unplayable game.
Long has the legend of Archie Stormcloud circulated in the hushed whispers of survivors. The man who killed the Topolniki Terrorists, the man who poisoned many unsuspecting foes. The Man who shackled Chernarus and mastered her wilds.
Lol been playing dayz for ages and didn't know about killing zombies from inside the shop great tip Al do that later on with a couple of cans of Stella should do it 👍
Dude, I LOVE your videos! You deserve 1000 times the subs, such calm, wise, well but simply edited videos with great tutorials. Nothing of that ADHD nonsense people upload these days. Hope the best for you!
I love this tutorial, and while Window Shopping is quick and efficient - I love going into the houses to check. Not only do you cover the Blind-spot Loot locations, but you also deny any potential snipers watching a free shot on you.
2:45 I found every 10th kiosk a long rifle or a shotgun (depending on the region and luck) on the roof (only the ones with a ladder of course. More often than not you can find ammo up there too. So if you're desprate or feel safe then you should bother looking up there from time to time.
First time playing this game. I ran around for 20 minutes and couldn’t find a thing. I then found a pair of green traki bottoms. I then spent the next 5 minutes running away from a zombie with the green traki bottoms in my hand as I still hadn’t managed to work out how to equip them. I out ran the zombie and managed to equip the green traki bottoms. I then found a hat and equipped the hat. I then died of starvation
Hey Archie, you should make vids on etiquette and how the community functions. I want to join a community server but don’t know where to being and I’m unfamiliar with rules of engagement between players. Would be really dope
From what I've gathered it tends to be 2 camps of thought on it. 1. Shoot first as questions later, most people tend to be very defensive and will not hesitate to shoot you even when you have nothing due to the loss for them and the benefit of killing a geared survivor for a freshly spawned character. Alot of people know Where to go for weapons and how to get them quick so don't be surprised if that noob in a t-shirt you saw comes at you with a shotty and tries to kill you. 2. The more friendly types choose a more Restrained Attitude when it comes to spawn areas like coast and some cities. They'll engage in VoIP And ask whether or not your going to attack them, they will not hesitate to kill you if you seem sus but if they think your chill then they might give you some food and clothing they have spare. These people are usually more in it for the player interactions and faction gameplay so they don't care as much about dying. Secret 3rd school is the school of chaos people like myself who would rather mix things up and have no care about dying as long as it gets them a laugh. For instance I walked up to a freshly the other day and asked him for his shoes and traded him some shit for them. Then walked away sniffing on VoIP just to see buddy's reaction. But quite frankly you do you if you play you'll slowly develop into one of these 3 trains of thought naturally and never any shame in killing someone, 9 times out of 10 in day z they would do the same if given the chance. Just remember one thing and that's that you never own anything in day z you only get your turn playing with it lol.
I know this might sound crazy, but i think my game is actually broken. I’ve been playing DayZ for one year and its been great, i started out on official servers, and as some of us usually do, i quickly switched over to modded servers when i saw how impossible finding food was on official servers. (Ive been back on official servers for about a month) I thought this might be a modded DayZ thing, maybe the servers had fruit spawns disabled, but here and there i look for fruit and never find anything. In the past it was the same regardless of what server i was playing on, but til this day in all my time playing, ive never found a single fruit underneath trees, no matter where or how hard i look. I think my game is just broken.
I never thought to pick up the rotten fruit, usually I get inland fast enough and get a hunting rifle in time to hunt some animals before I starve but my favourite snack is to gather mushrooms while walking through the forest instead of running, decent for hydration as well as topping up your calories.
Downloaded the game a couple of days ago, and i have been watching your videos. Especially the sickness related ones, GREAT JOB on the videoes, you have earned my subscription
Oooh my God thank you so much this is going to help me so much in this game I could not believe how hard they made it to find food but I guess it it might not be that hard after all
Seeing a piece of fruit on every single tree like that has not at all been my experience....ever....at any time on any server. I dunno what lightning you're bottling to get that lucky, but share some of it pls.
I hated this game when I first got it, I died repeatedly, everything was clunky and buggy, and I couldn't find ANY food and water. I just couldn't see the point. I'm now on my first long-surviving character (after countless failed deaths) and it's intense!
Idk they rust so much easier to loot food. I like that over this. I understand the survival part but it's not worth spending hours just looking for simple food. To me that's not worth my time but the gun play on here and graphics with zombies makes it worth the food fetch tho
I need help Archie! My character's face looks sick like a zombie, and flies are following me around. If I could upload a picture I would. There is no sickness icon, but he looks like shit. What do I do?
I have just started playing DayZ on Xbox. It is Brutal! I never find fruit like this, when I walk to the trees I check my vicinity and there is zero. I found 1 chicken but couldn’t find a knife or any stones to craft one. Died 3 times due to starvation
Yeah don’t give up I was in the same place a week ago when I just started playing, now I’m running around nwaf loaded with food and guns. It gets better
Great stuff. I don't think Livonia has fruit spawns, though. If there are, I don't remember finding any early on so I've spent a few hundred hours since then without even looking for any.
What's the best way to dry food? I've found inconsistent answers around, the wiki talks about temperature but I'm not sure how to control temperature while cooking? I'd love a way to reliably dry food.
I usually dry my fresh hunted animals steak by using the stove or fire place that you can find in almost every house. Just gather some wood and tree bark and start the fire, make sure u place your steak, fruit in the amoking space not cookin space.
I try to cook apples in fireplaces inside. But then they say “baked” it won’t let me grab them and put them in my inventory, causing them to become burnt . Why is that ?
What happened to Tactical Bacon? I demand it be returned to the game! There was nothing better than chowing down a can sitting next to a fire with a backpack full of top loot!
I eat, and one block later I'm dying of malnutrition. Literally. No exaggeration. I have been playing for a few dayZ (see what I did there) and have died 98% of the time from starving to death. It only takes a few minutes after eating that I have to eat again. I think my character has a tapeworm. Does anyone else have this problem on the Xbox one?
Second of all there's a big thing that these Dayz TH-camrs do and it's called lying about about like where they get food from and over exaggerating the amount of food they get from the sources
⚠UPDATES:⚠
⭕There are no fruit spawns below trees on Livonia.
Told ya.
im playing livonia ive found a whole ass pear tree with pears under it
My Dayz loop. Spawn, walk for 10 minutes eat the one fruit you get, find nothing else and eventually starve. Rinse repeat. Yeah I don't know what I'm doing.
If your playing official servers start on low pop servers so everything isn't picked clean.
Same here lol
Same and also do you guys now where you can find a fucking rock I bin searching for hours
Yea same. Sometimes I wander if there’s any loot at all
Train tracks for a rock or use a pick or sledge on big boulders and you get rocks

Fish, bro. Fishing is what I do every single spawn. 2 mackerel is 4 fillets.

This video alone is what made me stop dying from hunger and or dehydration in the first 30 minutes. This is an amazing video for new people.
I'm so stoked that it helped.
This tutorial is so much better than the ones I had to watch a year ago when I first started.
Been playing Dayz for years and 1.50 is brand new to me, cheers Archie!
Cheers!

This video helped me go from living about 15-20 minutes per run to eating like a well off person and I am truly grateful

Best Dayz guides on youtube. Underrated channel
This is a useful guide especially since it seems I spawn in with my food and water at half and not full now and that food spawning in is more rare now
QUICK TIP. You can eat rotten food if you eat it very slow
Amazing and insightful, even though I know how to get food already, it still made me learn new things!
2:45 I found every 10th kiosk a long rifle or a shotgun (depending on the region and luck) on the roof (only the ones with a ladder of course. More often than not you can find ammo up there too. So if you're desprate or feel safe then you should bother looking up there from time to time.
I actually mentioned that in the video originally. But I cut it because it didn’t really fit the theme. Thank you for posting it.

Thank you im pretty new to dayz and i die of starvation every game i play.. so sad when i find fun weapons lol
I play Hardcore servers so I constantly got food on my mind 24.7. Finding just a can of anything is rare
Very helpful man, thank you!
Anytime, Lucas.

Keep at it. 10 years and 8,000 hours later and I'm still obsessed.
Good shit
so far just mugging zomebies seem to be the best route.
1.19 is so bad. There is almost no food anywhere and the food you find does nothing for your calories.
I'm in offline mode and nothing seems to spawn apart from broken down vehicle's.
Awesome!!! Thanks a lot

Is this on the official server? I can never find fruit or much of any food constantly dying of starvation in this game.
