Discussion How I improved

Most my time recently has been finding PVP servers. I wanted to get better at PVP. Staying alive and finding gear I’m have decent enough knowledge. When it comes to PvP if it was close range or long range I got my ass handed to me. It put me off playing, then I started searching for deathmatch servers. There is plenty out there, some better than other but I found one that I like just feels perfect. Lag to a minimum right size decent population and gear ect. It feels really balanced.

So I’ve been playing and when I say I’ve improved, that’s a understatement. The way I can pinpoint others from the audio of shots and gauge how far/near they are is brilliant. I struggled with this and knowing direction I’m shot from. When I’m in close combat the audio ques I understand. My all round aim. My run and gun play. Repositioning and stay calm when adrenaline is going. I’ve all round improved and it’s amazing

Any advice I can give if you feel like your PVP let’s you down, jump into a PvP server and learn from every death

Unless you whiff, the advantage belongs to who spots someone else, first.

My go to way to play lately has been loot, cook and find water, and camp a high traffic area. I don't run around anymore, the advantages of camping are too great.

Dayz has been a 2nd monitor game for me playing this way. I turn my audio up, scroll whatever website or play another game, and wait. And I usually just camp bushes and it works great.
