How to have a Perfect Mid Game in 2024 DayZ - Intermediate/Beginners Walkthrough

[@thecuriousharry9275]

Lmao, that’s me and I sound so monotone, but anyways thanks for all the help cam! I’ve since found nvg’s, now I gotta find a helmet I can attach em to, and to anyone reading you can hold the nods up like binoculars, super helpful when it’s pitch black

[@thecuriousharry9275]

Funny thing is I had watched one of his videos before I started playing day z and implemented some of the techniques from it, his voice sounded familiar but I didn’t put 2 and 2 together, pretty cool and crazy odds of that happening

[@MarkorLP]

I will make sure to check your stash every now and then ;)

[@thecuriousharry9275]

@@MarkorLPjust give me a heads up and I’ll meet you there 😂

I think I'm on your same server I'm looking for someone to play with. If anyone's interested lmk

Bro, I really liked your personality and the way you explain things. Your interactions with other players are really entertaining as well 😂 Thx for the video and keep it up!!

Thanks so much for checking them out my friend!

These are the types of DayZ vids we need! I am considering these my DayZ reference bible.

[@camcantrun]

The actual DAYZ bible is a video im working on :)

[@grouch_gaming]

He made it, check it out its the GOAT

[@chukk_chukk]

More videos like this are needed badly. Most people have starter video's. Only a few, if any have middle game vid's. Way to out do the comp!

[@camcantrun]

Hell yeah Chukk, happy you enjoyed!

[@tomaszachar9887]

Did you know that the Salted Sticks "Tyčinky" are real product made in Slovakia? One of my favourite snacks for sure. I love the details in this game. It looks exactly like rural Slovakia, the road signs, bus stops, škoda cars, power cables architecture ...

[@kittykush9259]

That's pretty cool,the fact they took the time to get in all those details. I love it when game developers take the time to think of all these things.

[@brokenhalo911]

What a great video. The game needs more people like you Cam. I hope you do this again and again.

[@itsPicoDeGuyYooooo]

you know your making great content, when people like myself say... "great video man, i dont even play this game yet", because of you, im getting today.

Bro, Thanks my friend. May your journeys be bliss and fear.

I just started playing this game and found your vids which are quite helpful. Thank you for that. I have only been on a low pop server now and haven't seen any others yet. Didn't even spend any time on the coast....just ran right in to see what was what. I can only hope I run into people like you, but from what I have seen this is the exception and not the rule for DayZ. Look forward to more content from you. Subbed!

[@camcantrun]

Care about you Kevin, good luck out there!

[@itslailie7520]

One of the best videos I’ve watched. You helped so much. “Only like 5 people will watch it” and it hit the thousands. Well deserved!

[@triforcelp131]

It’s really refreshing to have dayz gameplay videos that aren’t overly serious.

[@AJ.Arciniega]

Hey Cam you've helped me a lot when I started dayz. Considering I started right around when you released your first "Perfect Start" video you were one of the first people I went to on my journey. I had quite a bit of fun on my 2nd trip to NWAF where I met a friendly high-gear duo after we shot at each other and realized we were only paranoid, looted out some buildings, and ultimately ended up getting sniped from a building! I may not have ended up having fun or getting that far without you, Thank you.

[@maxwelldegn6651]

1:11:23 "These are the people who didn't watch my tutorial" Brilliant. Love this series lol

[@camcantrun]

HAhaha, happy someone liked that ;)

[@midwestyoes]

Watching harry loot reminds ne so much of myself since coming back after finally getting dz on on pc. I take to long looting and its driving me crazy. Ive been playing rust over the past year and its like now i finally got quick looting down on there compared to a soviet citizen going ro an American grocery store for the first time.

[@Kirks1313]

Awesome videos. Yesterday I had the Dayz itch (used to play Arma 2 mod before Arma 3 was a thing) so bought the game. Currently at work listening/half watching these videos. Very helpful :)

[@squiddad1528]

Im subbing just cause i think you are such a cool person, this interaction reminds me so much of these dudes i met. They took me in and helped me get geared, friended them on xbox and we still play together sometimes, meeting people and having an adventure like this is what the game is all about for me.

[@DD_1311]

I always enjoy your tutorials and I'm looking forward to more. Keep it up my guy.

[@camcantrun]

Appreciate you comrade!

[@101Borgle]

These vids have been my entertainment for the last week. Need more friendly gamers like you keep it up

[@the15minutegamer]

What to do next has always put me off DAYZ like what do you do apart from run around, so this video was great! Enjoyed the beginners series too.

[@Doctorapocalypse2]

You're so nice to beginners that just earned you a sub bro. We need more people like you in this game

[@nika_3537]

By far the most entertaining beginners guide, so good 👍 😂

[@techi602]

12:00 Beginner tip: Use rags to craft handwraps before cutting an animal. So you dont have to run to well ( = pvp hotspost) after firing a gun. You also carry empty bottle in your bag which you could have filled up before...

What a great video! So many useful little tips too! I think even after you may finish making these walkthroughs you should just continue with these long format, minimal cut videos. Watching the process is so important. Keep up the great work and thank you again!!!

[@edgarhume8184]

The cool things about the plastic "Suunto" compass is that when it's on your hot bar, the direction that you are traveling is 9 o'clock. The golden compass does the same if you leave it open when you store it, but the north line is the only discernable line, and it is very faint.

[@thecuriousharry9275]

Never noticed that, gonna have to check it out

[@plthunder3532]

Thanks for helping i got the game 5 days ago and after watching your guides and starts i can survive (still im bad at pvp)😅

WHen does anyone get good at PVP? I feel like I still suck sometimes.

Yea but its hard for me to spot other survivors still thanks for all the tips and guides

“Ultimately, you can get caught by a PvP Chad anywhere, so it’s best to always be ready.” 😂 What makes these videos great, is that, they’re extremely informative, and he’s funny without having to try and be a comedian. Favorite series on KZbin.

Hey I’m a really old school Dayz player, been playing this game through Dayz mod, and Dayz now.. since 2013 and I have to say, this video is awesome! Nice man

[@a.vogt90]

Your vids helped me alot getting started with the game especially when things don't go as planned, thanks!

[@a.vogt90]

Also, could you make a vid where you show how to survive easier? I mean like I feel like I'm walking from to town to town just looking for water and food and by the time I find something and go to the next area I need to eat and drink again so that's all I do looking for food and water. I would like to stock up on food and water to get myself into a more comfortable position if you know what I mean. It looks easy when you do it because you are so fast and know exactly what you do and plan ahead. That's my problem right now. Thanks!

[@ThomasEllis]

And yet another gem from Cam. Thanks for sharing your knowledge again. So much useful information.

[@camcantrun]

Love yeah brother.

I’ve lived for 5 and a half hours now. Super fun game now. Thanks again for all your suggestions and advice.

Enjoying these videos man! It's tough when you're mainly a purist (DayOne KarmaKrew etc) but your friends want modded servers due to taking too long to find it each other, loot way too scarce, etc.

[@OldSkoolTranceMixes]

Loving the videos Cam - have learnt so much from them that am now lasting a few hours on each run not 20 minutes! 👍

[@camcantrun]

That's what we're talking about my friend!

[@denisem.1042]

I'm a fairly new player (a little over 20 hours). I really enjoy these videos! One mistake I made on my current life. I found food, water and a weapon with some ammo. One thing I didn't have much of is bandages. I went inland too soon. I got 3 bleeds from some military zombies and had to bandage with dirty rags. Now I'm stuck inland with blood poisoning and have to backtrack to the coast to look for bandages or medicine. I thought I was ready to go inland but I wasn't.

[@chukk_chukk]

Find a hospital or the yellow tents for medical supplies. They are all over the map and usually in most towns inland. Remember you can always jump on things if you need to. The infected can't hit you while on top of things.

[@atomicalex01]

@@chukk_chukkInfected can’t get you, but players can. Climbing on top of stuff makes you a very noticeable and easy to hit target for others to pick off

[@denisem.1042]

@@chukk_chukk Yeah, it was a weird situation. I was flanking around the tents and there was a screamer officer in the woods and I didn't even see him until he aggroed. Nowhere to go. I had like five of them on me in seconds. I tried to run, but you know. I did manage to kill them but was bleeding bad and used my bandages. When I log back in, there shouldn't be too many there, but there is no medical tent there. It was a checkpoint. What bummed me out is that for a total noob like me, I was having a pretty good run. Maybe I can come back.

[@thomasorley4849]

Halfway through the video and do not yet know how it ends, but really enjoyed your interactions with that other player. You sure engendered a lot of trust with that fellow, enough for him to allow you to peer into his inventory. Keep it up, you put out great content.

[@pUpzorz]

Medical buildings are usually blue in cities. Always take tetracycline pills and vitamin pills, these can help you get rid of many diseases if you get one.

[@aleksandrmikhailov3255]

That was really interesting to watch bro. And it's a bummer that the signs, the map and everything is in russian. As a Russian myself I didn't even know that they are not translated in the English version of the game. By the way, if you search you will find those places somewhere in Russia. Like Zelenogorsk is a small village-like city close to my city of birth. As well as Solnechnoe etc. That's really funny how you're trying to read those signs in English 😂 Thanks for the video

[@tristanb.3582]

59:15 there is a land bridge made of stone just about 25 meters further so you wouldn't had to have crossed through the water

[@MarkDavies10]

@CamCANTRUN re: @49:29 and clear compasses, all you need to remember is: Never Eat Shredded Wheat (UK) OR Naughty Elephants Squirt Water (plus the red line points north) ;) I actually prefer the colourless compass as it saves you having to open it

[@MrProbstandrew]

there is most def a rhyme and reason to sickness and getting sick.. very important tech in dayz. i dont know how many times i got audio queues from an enemy, and therefore knew of his existance and location, before he knew mine.. which is like 90% of what is important in an encounter. for me someone who is often sick in dayz is just a pvp chad who doesnt care about much but pvp action(hangs out at NWAF) or a bad playa.. learn your sickness stuff folks.. its not hard to stay sickness free, and is a big advantage. i bet 99% of folks get sick cuz.. 1.they eat with dirty/bloody hands(no gloves), 2.they eat bad food or drink bad water, 3.they run around too much in the rain, are soaked, dont ring clothes and warm up between, dont make a fire quickly after getting sick sign when running around wet/cold(insulation of clothes is important!). the remaining 1% of sickness is "viral" and needs meds.. but if u stick to the three points i mentioned, the only remaining way is catching something from another sick player. (also, the higher your 4 stat lvs, the higher your immune system is, in case u do mess up and break one of those rules, ..you might not get sick.

[@MrProbstandrew]

...adding to statement.. 4.rth reason/rule.. bandaging with non sterile items can also make u sick. so just dont.. ;) if sick from that, u need meds too..tho u can get lucky and have it go away.. again, immune/stat lvs count Reply

Dude I'm a new player, had a few runs where I got pretty geared up and ventured into some military areas, but I still find the early game tough, and the other day I had a run where I found a crossbow in a house in the first 5 minutes. Then almost immediately died, and pretty sure I'm never gonna find one again.

[@topbosssyndicate2505]

Very nice video!!

[@jimmywatson468]

I just recently started playing and I was under the belief that characters carry over to other official servers as long as they're the same. I was playing on a fp only server, but when I tried going to another similar server, it said that character was tied to another server and was kicked off. Causing me to customize another character just to play another server.

[@MajinStrach]

Something that came to mind, the entire making a box thing. Just get a marlin backpack, the 60ish slot one, comes in loads of colors. I farm them at Cherno containers :P

[@davidkeetz]

yah....getting a plate carrier or stab vest AND a good helmet is critical. I ignored this aspect of the game for several years and I was dying every few weeks.......ever since I started prioritizing armor, I rarely ever die.....I'll put myself in high risk situations now because I kind of want to die. I'll still put up a fight of course, but having armor really increases your chances of survival. It's not even just to protect against other players. There are a lot of areas of the map that if you really can't traverse unless you have decent armor because the bears or wolves will one hit you if you don't have a helmet.

[@ArthurBayers]
