First 30 minutes

You just woke up on the coast with fists and bad vibes. Stay calm, move smart, and get the basics before you push inland.

What to grab first

Levi likes a prepared kit; Kane likes not starving. Split roles so you don't both grab the same useless jackets.

Stay upright

DayZ medical is half knowledge, half not panicking. Carry the staples and call problems out early in duo chat.

When it gets loud

You don't have to KOS everything — but you do need a plan when someone starts shooting.

Walls & regrets

Bases feel safe until they aren't. Build for delay and recovery, not immortality.

Calm fun, clear calls

Twenty years of friendship works in-game when you keep the vibe chill and the calls clear.

Weather is the boss

Chernarus weather will kill you without a single bullet. Treat temperature like a health bar.

Loud freedom

Cars are power tools — great until every squad on the map hears you.
