Im just here to let people who are new to the game know that FT is an actual legend in the DayZ community. Don't believe me? Ask ANY other DayZ streamer or go back 10 years and watch the base bandit series. Watch the new series. Whatever you do, you better recognize.
As someone who is about to start playing when Frostline drops, this video has been UNBELIEVABLY easy to understand. He is very patient and explains simply. I do have a lot of Rust experience though so this game already seems logic based as well
I have 105 hours on console and this is by far the best tutorial I've ever seen. Not sure if you can, but doing this with ps4/xbox would be great as well. Well done!
There are tons of other tutorials out there, most are loaded with nonsense and nothing terribly edifying. This fella gets to the point with thorough insight and humor.
I like my purple dress and leather riding boots thankyou very much young man! 😂 Shared to some friends who still find DayZ too daunting, fingers crossed this video helps them over the hump! Also happy birthday! -gutsy xx
Great video, except for maybe when the zombies came on you 😂 I’d love to see a guide on gunplay and tactics. I’ve picked up some skills like hip firing more and peeking left on trees and most people lean right, playing 1st person only servers to avoid 3rd person over walls etc.
i did make a pvp tips and tricks vid a while back, linked at the end of this comment, i may well do one covering tactics and flanking etc in the future. ruclips.net/video/DLsY99ux3Xk/видео.html
Dude, I have over 800 hours on Dayz but haven't played for like 5-6 years, I was randomly recommended your videos and loving the vibe and your play style is exactly like mine, your making me want to play it again so bad, I've just treated myself to a new GPU for my birthday lol lets team up for a game??
FT is the one and only original trailblazing 2012 - 2024 Dayz legend left on the scene today. Todays content streamers stand on his shoulders. Even before the Dayz God Frankie, FT was the Dayz visionary.🍌
I started playing a few days ago and seem to do relatively well until night falls. How do you maneuver in the dark with no light? I got mauled by a zombie in the pitch black and couldn't see where it was. So frustrating lol
If you play on a 3pp server the night will be lighter and you can increase the monitor brightness or use nvidia to tweak the gamma. On 1pp the best option is night vision goggles but they are hard to obtain. Alternatively you can craft a torch with a long stick and rags, keeping to the road will provide a bit of natural light. Some people just sit in a building and cook or inventory sort, others just log out for the duration of the night.
Just got day z and on official servers I'm starving to death. I usually spawn in the middle of a field and by the time I find a building I'm super low health because of starvation. Any tips
You can make fruit or mushrooms spawn by staying in an area. It doesn't have to be a town, they will spawn in the woods (mushrooms) or along the side of lanes/roads under the trees for fruit. It might take a few mins for this to happen but it is a way to get food, zombies are also a decent source for food/drinks.
My first day playing the game and I've got some questions about the servers. Do they ever wipe and if so how often. And does my character stay on what ever server I join? Can I transfer my char from server to server kinda like ark? And what happens if I'm fully kitted and I log off? Do I keep all my stuff? So many questions
There are official and community servers. Official don't wipe very often, we had a base for over 5 months, wipes are announced via the Dayz twitter feed. Community (servers run by individuals) vary and follow no set pattern. Official servers have 1pp and 3pp variants. You have an individual char for each mode, that character will transfer to any other official server (of the same mode 1pp or 3pp) but unless you join the server you started out on your location will change (to avoid people server switching to base glitch or loot farm). Whenever you log off your char is safe, it doesn't stay on the server. Your char on a community servers will not transfer to another server, as a general rule you will create a new char every time you join a different server. Quite hard to explain in text but if you see me live i can talk you through it and any other Q's you have.
'tis a tricky one. This vid has a decent click through rate, which means people are shown the thumb/title and are clicking on it. I know what you mean about ai thumbs, i think they have a certain smell to them and it's not great. But they take me 10mins to make, to do a decent in game thumb i have to go in game or into dayz editor and set up a scene, do the lighting and hope editor doesn't crash then alter the lens the fov etc etc all in all it takes about 2hrs plus to generate/edit a true in game dayz thumb.
@@superftlol Better quality = harder work. I'm biased of course, so whatever works for you, keep doing- I'm just an Internet guy. But you could at least put some more effort into the font, try to make the titles and text less marketed towards a mass RUclips audience? It would be more respectful towards your fans that see past the RUclips numbers play, which so many channels attempt and are muddied by. The cyan and titles scream low effort, and the overall look of your channel doesn't make me want to click any of your videos, they all seem generic and uninteresting from a thumbnail glance, but I know that the videos themselves are always that FT greatness. (you're a 13k-and-counting-hour DayZ pro. Why not cater to the hardcore DayZ audience that is already here for you?) Thanks for the reply
@@1sweetree I've been trying these new thumbs for the last month, ill give them a bit of time to breath and see. I'm not ignoring what you have to say but it's always going to be difficult to please everyone. Thanks for the constructive criticism.
Watched this video twice now. First time changed my game. 10 hours before I died. Now I'm just brushing up.
Absolute legend. Thank you
Great to hear, thanks for the feedback and glad to help :)

It’s criminal that you aren’t the most popular DayZ RUclipsr.
So Criminal 😂
Brown noser 🟤 👃 lol
Nicely done very nuanced guide. One can use electrical repair kits to repair wire. I just found that out.
Ty for shearing absolutely great explanation how you start a survival journey preparing before you go inland
Excellent starter tutorial, wish I'd had this when i started.
I did not know about the field of view setting. Thanks FT.
Some great tips and tricks there for new and not so new players. GG FT ;)
I am here to declare FT a legend
A leg end ?
@@RJM_99 shut up, Cairo_Jerk
Great vid Ft and happy birthday 🎂
Cheers merv
Awesome video.
Standing on cars or punching the zeds through doors has always been my favorite go to cheese 😂

Thanks Gutsy :)
Very well done
I tried playing dayz several times and failed completely , watching this tutorial makes me want to try again! thx!
FT, Thanks for this.
Thank you for explaining that beginner things. This is really helpful.

Glad to be of help and thanks for letting me know :) Anything you are struggling with fire a msg here or drop into a live stream.

You earned a follow and a like.
excellent video thank you
Super helpful guide. Crafting the stone knife and fire drill should make things much easier my next go around
Pro Tips for a good start...
Thanks mate. Lots of trick and tips. New timer here

Very kind of you to say moschops :)
"DayZ god" lol he was a cheater and a fake
@@teamflashtv that is misinformation spread by toxic people in the Dayz community. Most Dayz content creators fake it, just in different ways.
@@Yagdrol No it isn't misinformation, he was hacking in some public servers during the mod days. Very cringe how people continue to idolise him.
How often did you have to re record the sections where you mention cleaning kit to make it RUclips compliant ?
😂
:)
nice details on video. Im new player helped me a lot
Nice
Over 5,000 hours playing and I never knew about Ctrl click to drop an item.
Nice vid, can you re-use bolts from the crossbow? like retrieve them from zombies body for use again? Didn't see you do that.🤔
yup. can reuse until they go ruined
He is
🐻👍
this game could be 10x better with in game tutorials and a map on screen
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻👍🏻grazie
You can still kill zombies with a ruend knife or 🪓
When you swing an attack with a ruined knife it drops to the floor, this is on PC i assume its the same on console.
I started playing a few days ago and seem to do relatively well until night falls. How do you maneuver in the dark with no light? I got mauled by a zombie in the pitch black and couldn't see where it was. So frustrating lol

can you fix crossbow with gun cleaning kit?
No, just the epoxy
Any guides for people playing on controller???

@@superftlol thanks for the detailed response
Good guide but how do you do all that on controller the hardest thing when starting is figuring out the shitty controls
I dont own a console so i cant help there 'fraid
@@superftlol buy one
can you do a console guide ? You definitely did a good job but keyboard guide really had me confused. Apologize
i understand I can look up the core responding buttons but I'd rather be lazy and Support F1 🥰
FT doesn't have either of the consoles to play DayZ on 😥
Great shyt
I bought this game back in 2022 still not play it yet 😆
How do you power attack on Xbox?
you've probably worked it out by now but likely the same button you use for sprint
Mk2 22 hand gun 50 bullet's a packet. Is the best way to get rid of the zombies or a knife stealth mode
@shanelocke6977 Plural of “bullet” is “bullets”. Go back to third grade you fuc(nocensor)king loser.
If you had a little higher voice u would sound exactly like frankieonpc
I'm playing on PS4
Love FT but ditch the AI tat. Makes your channel look so cheap.
