DayZ Standalone: Tips and Tricks

February 10, 2014 by Stephen Daly

Here’s 50 ways to breathe new life into DayZ’s alpha.

YouTube user and DayZ Standalone player WOBO has put together 50 tips and tricks for making the most out of the game's alpha and you can check them all out in the video below. 

If that isn't enough for you, we've also got a handy list of tips for those just starting out in the game here. DayZ Standalone has been beset by hacks and cheats since it launched in December despite which the Steam Early Access version has since sold more than one million copies. 

The tips include hints like the fact that you move more slowly when you're thirsty and that moving between walking and running can be done simply by double tapping the shift key. 

While many of the tips here are pretty straightforward, there may just be something that'll help keep you alive. Look out for all fifty in the trailer below but do note that some of them no longer work due to the game's patches.
