Building a Cozy Hidden SOLO Base in Official DayZ

Hello, everyone, and welcome to another DayZ adventure. Every survivor has a different goal in mind when they spawn on the shores of Chernarus. Some want to dominate the map with large clans and others just want to explore as solo adventurers. Today, you’ll be joining me for an adventure on official servers where I decided to try something I had never attempted before: building a hidden solo base. After a long journey filled with many different mishaps, we were able to achieve our goal and find success. However, it all started just like any other: with nothing but a piece of fruit, a bandage, and big aspirations...

People don’t appreciate how long things actually take in DayZ. It really gives you time to think and the adventure to play out. “Never a normal day in DayZ”

[@scholarcormier]

Yeah, DayZ is definitely a slow game, but that builds up the suspense and makes the short moments of action so much more intense! Thanks for stopping by! I enjoy your vids too 😁👍

[@flyingdutchman80]

I do

[@billnwa2250]

I like how you keep me engaged by telling me what you are picking up, so I can keep up with your inventory. Fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.

[@scholarcormier]

Glad to hear that you enjoyed some of that commentary! Thanks for stopping by 😁

[@hoticeentertainment]

I just spent my lunch hour watching this adventure, absolutely amazing bro! Dope commentary as well! The fact that you put in the work into adding subtitles to let us know where you are in the map and what other players are saying is just an added bonus...keep up the good work bro! You just got a new fan right here!!!! loving it!

[@scholarcormier]

Thank you so much! Much appreciated 😁

@@Cwhiten11 Modded community servers are the only DayZ videos you can find anymore. Not everyone has been playing for 10 years and is bored of vanilla Chernarus. The game is constantly changing and it’s nice to have Official Chernarus videos on more recent game versions. I’m sure Scholar genuinely enjoys what he’s playing, but it’s also a smart brand decision to upload videos of the vanilla game because more people can absorb it.

[@Cwhiten11]

@@Odysseus1999 all I play is official. If I’m going to play DAYZ, I want the whole dayz experience. I don’t mind modded maps. But I won’t play if the structure of the game is modded. The point is to see if you can survive the harshest environments. That’s why I love his vids. Your comment is spot on!
