Brand new DayZ player here. Played less than 20 hours so far. Managed to last at most 3 hours with q character and died due to illness. Absolutely love these suggestions. Theyre going to help me improve greatly! Would also love to see a video going more into basics. As at the moment i still cant figure out how to craft manythings on consol (ps5) especially getting the ability to cook food. Thats been the killer of me a couple of times now. Also the night is evil eslecially after blood loss

[@camcantrun]

I got you my friend. I'm going to make an ABSOLUTE BASICS tutorial in the next couple days and I'll make sure to cover those things you expressed.

[@aishan6224]

Take your time and enjoy the process, you can learn but can never go back to discovering the game/map

[@sirsancti5504]

Don't give up. The more you learn, the more you'll miss the "survival days".

[@elchucabagra]

Cam you have certain style and delivery i cant get enough

[@camcantrun]

Thanks my friend!

[@D4RKSIDE33]

I also am a new player and really found you're video much more helpful than a tips and tricks type video. Understanding that the struggle is what makes the story great! Thank you.

[@camcantrun]

Hell yeah I figure concepts help more than telling you you spawn facing north :P

[@coachjonjiujitsu]

I'm 24 hrs in. I bushwacked a guy in a city on the northeast coast after I spawned. Got lucky and found a weapon cache further west in a city. I'm using the railroad tracks to move. I made my way to the southwest coast, and now I'm moving inland past Pop, or Bop or something. I have literally everything I need to survive. I'm a newbie with real world skills. This game is amazing.

[@camcantrun]

Hahhabhahaha love this.

[@commonweakness9060]

Great video. Love the big picture guide to Dayz.

[@camcantrun]

Hey my friend, so happy you enjoyed!

[@lordtracon]

Excellent narration and coaching. You are the man.

[@camcantrun]

Thanks LordTracon! :)

[@simo_bi_17]

Nice content, nice sotry trips and tricks! Good philosophy. I just started playing on PS5 and you ae right the most important is not to cheat on our self, keep struggling. Failure are part of the success!

[@camcantrun]

The greater the struggle the more glorious the triumph.

[@owenlairson7990]

Absolutely loved this video. My dad recently bought me DayZ for my birthdays because he wanted to share the love he has for the game with me. He has a lot of progress and I'm happy I'll be able to enjoy this with him. Great advice, will definitely give these strats a shot.

[@frankepollo]

Good tip about first interactions. Keep yourself safe while gauging the other player.

[@camcantrun]

King!

[@jballen_74]

Been playing 4 months now, your tips were the game changer for myself, I started running the coast, because as a new player having to overcome lack of ability and knowledge I was fearful of dying, leaving the coast and heading in land immediately is hands down the best advice in this game ,and helped me to get better by living longer to become knowledgeable of the game itself . Now, I’m no pro but I’m accountable and have thousands of hours booked. And yet I still learn all time things I didn’t know . Love the vids man ,and Thank you for helping me become a better player in the best game ever

[@camcantrun]

Care about you my friend, thanks for the kind thoughtful words.

[@JuanLopez-kk9wi]

I really like this style of videos

[@camcantrun]

Hell yeah, more coming than!

[@karina4t]

I love the scenarios you create... Own dayz long time and only played it once! Please keep this content coming so I can finally play Dayz ty ☺

[@camcantrun]

Of course my friend I'm happy you're enjoying!

[@thebackdoor5492]

I absoloutely love this video! All the way through it you have this bossy attitude and i love it so much! This video actually did help me get more stacked than ever before and i have to thank you for that!

[@camcantrun]

Hell yeah, all love!

[@ThomasEllis]

This video helps sooo much. Thank you for the help with this game. It's crazy involved.

[@camcantrun]

It is a nightmare and a dream at the same time, good luck out there!

[@mickosprey7696]

Would have to say very nicely done and informative video New to the channel not necessarily Dayz But I will share this vid with a Beginner friendly Discord I'm part of.. definitely like your take on things 💙💙

[@camcantrun]

Hell yeah, thanks so much for sharing ym friend!

[@ivoryviking]

Nice vid Cam. Thx for

[@chukk_chukk]

See the video's you make are full of great knowledge that a lot of players can use! Thanks for sharing!

[@camcantrun]

Thank you brother!

[@EricDocken]

This is a very good information!

[@camcantrun]

Happy to hear it's helping.

[@zoltanpal3921]

That’s awesome video! My personal missing link is the PVP only I think. So lack of experience in gunfights. Shooting Z’s not a problem but! But spotting a player getting shaky hands! Not gear fear and not scared to die just because lack of confidence in gun fight! Yes true that joining V++ could help even my friend told me that joined together ohh that noises and got killed every second haha I was a 20 hour player or so f….&£)(!!! So what should I do just join anyway and keep dying till I start killing peoples??? Could you cover a video about how to build up pvp techniques and some PvP, dpi,in game settings to help react better in gunfights??! Or this is to much.? Thanks for helping people’s to join this amazing game community!!!! What a great project!!!❤

[@camcantrun]

Zoltan, I got yeah. I will make PVP tips and how to build those skills my next "tutorial" video my friend.

[@MrNavarro85]

please keep up with those tutorials. Thank you sir.

[@berdyderg900]

Between binging your channel and dying for a couple days straight I finally have what, to a noob, seems like a pretty good setup at around 25 hours alive. Really appreciate this channel

[@Woody2Times]

No wonder you were crying dying IRL and a DayZ bot 😂😂

[@elvoandro7087]

A sharp object at start is victory in early game and infinite food

[@Viphagen]

Hell yeah amazing video!

[@camcantrun]

[@dkcrook5]

the more people the more things spawn

[@sirsancti5504]

At first, I was afraid of wolves.. Then once, I was dying of hunger in the mid-map Livonia and those howls felt like a Godsend.

[@mathewpotter5601]

I got fully geared yesterday then died by doing this very thing just b-line in land but its not easy to survive lol zombies got me every time still not made a fire and still not hunted some meat. It was disturbing to find somebody along my route had been eaten haha

[@300desmone]

Killed two gullies sitting in the tree line...one row back, THANKS CAM

[@thestravaiger8102]

Excuse my ignorance. Can you explain to me how you manage to do the flythrough? Is that a feature exclusive to PC or can that be done on console? Great tutorial BTW. Thanks

[@camcantrun]

That is a mod exclusive to PC my friend. I'm unsure as of now that you can do that on Console.

[@elchucabagra]

Comment for my friend, al

[@patrickcornell4058]

I totally agree lol, I beat my first player with a baseball bat the other day, getting better all the time... need a mic now

[@brayke7647]

I die almost always while looting or killing zombies

[@camcantrun]

I recently posted another video that shows a little more indepth about 5 minutes in the many ways to manage zombies. It's called "How to have a Perfect Start"

[@ArmaSal]

nice

[@TheBear0769]

Question; so loot doesn't respawn in this game?

[@edmartin875]

It does respawn, but not right away. I think different things respawn on their own schedule. If you hang around in an orchard it will become obvious fruit is respawning, more quickly than just about anything else.

[@wezyndrome]

Are official servers worth playing these days? Whenever ive played no one really played official

[@tackcoma5280]

Good server to learn how to play dayz without getting kill fast in my opinion

[@wezyndrome]

@@tackcoma5280 the official one? I'm looking to start playing again and I'm gonna be basically fresh no knowledge

[@camcantrun]

It's your choice, the only bad thing about official is they are unmonitored, so if there is a cheater, he can run free. Community servers regulate those kinda things.

[@camcantrun]

Ill make a video soon to help with this

[@wezyndrome]

@@camcantrun cheers man I used your tips today and they were gold 💪👍

[@edmartin875]

Zero PvP. You have been watching me play. Was that you doing the shooting ?

[@ezeNdog]

Lol we will know when everyone watches your videos, there will be a bunch of fresh spawns battling it out in the separate groups of houses.... Oh and if u combat log while surrounded by wolves u go back to the beach

[@camcantrun]

ahhahah I didn't even think about that... but thankfully.... not many people do watch em you'll be good :) Care about you and good luck out there!
