  • Hey everyone, Sour here. Today I dove into an official server as a solo, to see how my experience would pan out to be. It didn't go quite how I expected it to compared to every other time I've played on official, so as always, I hope you all enjoy!

      Why is it so dark on official when I play official on PS4 at night I can see miles with no light source I could see a guy run for a mile away in the dark there's not much of a difference between nvg and no nvg get a better TV or try turn gamma and brightness up if that don't work then your TV is definitely crap

    It’s so crazy in this game it is totally possible to have 1000 hours and only a few kills or no kills at all, and it’s what I love about it as well it’s not all run and gun all the time and when you run into someone that adrenaline shot is like no other game out there.

      I’ve never had a functional M4 either, at least not in stand alone and only have 3 kills in 1500 hours. Most of my time has been surviving, I usually get killed randomly when I turn a corner not expecting anyone to be there at point blank range, and I scramble to find the right buttons to get my gun out and by that time I’ve been shot dead lol.

    Proper night brings a whole new experience to the game that is saddly missing on a lot of community servers. Like most people, when I first started playing DayZ it was on offical servers. I remember seeing a guy sat by a fire in the middle of nowhere. I snuck up to probably within 10 meters of him, watched him cook some food, then snuck off. He never knew.

    Not everyone’s bad in this game and that’s why I like it. Most people will shoot on sight without thought, but the few who don’t are the people I appreciate most. One time I was walking down a road and a fully kitted guy just started talking to me. Asking how my day was, if I need anything from him, stuff like that. Even though I told him I didn’t need anything, he still ended up giving me a revolver(I was a fresh spawn). David reminds me of him. People can be amazing. Remember that Sour. I love your content. Stay Sweet.

  • @Beatseat
    @Beatseat 8 месяцев назад +68

    My theory is that the stash belonged to David who collected it over his 1000 hours however grew tired of killing people and decided to just put away everything he had. This way he would be carefree of any need to desperately survive and at the same time limit the killing of players by others since he had the weapons. I believe that is why he was so far inland in just spawn clothes, trying to live life slowly and find a sense of happiness in the lonely world of DayZ. I know it seems far fetched but putting together David's calm demeanour and willingness to leave the game just like that I feel like it may be true and more so I want it to be.

I've only had to ban one person and didn't want to ban him cuz there isn't any rules but he was so toxic to me and my wife and to everyone. Everyone wanted him gone and he pushed my buttons cussing me and my wife out the whole nine yards. So he got the badge of probably being the first person to get ban from a sever that has no rules. Just imagine how bad of a person you have to be in order to get ban from a server with no rules no admin.

If your playing these days you have to play extremely defensive or aggressive and always be on alert shooting on sight or running away when seeing players because they’ll 9/10 times do the same to you unless it’s a new player or freshie(which can be worse in some circumstances), not to mention how many groups run around in this game nowadays and all the sweats that also play the game. Official is also not that great it’s been updated a lot recently so it’s not as bad as it used to be but it’s still not great I recommend finding a good community server because official takes to much time for very little in terms of rewards.

    Great video man! It's funny when you look back at your first couple of months playing dayz, everything was so sketchy and complicated. Every town and city was a nightmare.
    After playing for years and you learn all the little tips to make life easier, you also start memorizing patterns (locations of loot spawning in certain areas, player spawns, low geared players, high geared players) the most helpful being the infected spawns/wander radius.
    I have 4 kills and 1 death in my dayz "official" career, wasn't very happy about it but it was a grenade. And I was able to play the game for years and have only seen under 10 people face to face. Probably another 10 at a distance shootout.
    Most of the time if I had seen another player, I would watch and wait, then go the other way. I don't care about his bk133 but I'm sure he cares about my SVAL so I just walk away from fights if I can, and let other people try to gear up!

      @joelwarren7457 Год назад +1

      @@harrylewin3180 a few reasons why:
      Only have chernarus/Livonia so chernarus is more fun on official. If I had pc I'd try other maps.
      I have played chernarus for years, and I still find things I've never seen before, so it keeps me at least engaged in exploring.
      I don't have any other decent open world games, other than days gone, and ghost of tsushima. But I've beat those so now I'm back into dayZ.
      Last and most importantly, I play solo 99.9% or the time. I like the vibe of official servers, far off gunshots, and adrenaline filled moments in the gas zone or helicopter crashes.
      This has kept it interesting for me, but just like you I drop and pick it up every now and then. My best advice and what I've done is, on my first dayz experience I lived by Olsha, next was the southeast island, then I tried the nwaf, tisy, krona, tri Krista area. My last experience I was close to zelenogorsk and gas zone, probably the best choice if you're looking to get insanely geared in a couple of days. But currently my new official stash is just outside of cherno, because I don't need to explore tisy or nwaf anymore, I've seen all the castles. So far I really enjoy being close to the south shore. It's highly populated so it keeps things interesting, but I got killed twice in the dark in my first week of living there 😄
      I hope you enjoy, looking forward to any dayz successor for sure. But for now I don't mind chilling in cherno, and when you get bored of dayz, try the community pvp servers (DAYZ of DUTY) practice pvp skills.
      My buddy and I are talking about trying namalsk for the winter, after watching the gameplay of the map, I'm excited to test my dayz survival skills in the winter terrain.
