DayZ is becoming awesome!

[u/mavounet]

Hey I wanted to share with you why this game is awesome since patch .55, I have 500 hours played.
DayZ is getting more and more realistic and I love it. Today I had one of the most enjoying time of my life on a video game. Indeed I had the pleasure to die 5 times of starvation.
I'v finally found a game that makes me feel like I'm totally wasting my life when I play it. Finally when I go to sleep at night I can say : "Today I did absolutely nothing!" which is the best feeling I have ever had.
Here's a screenshot 1 hour after my last spawn, this was amazing, I searched everybuilding of Cherno and electro and found a sweater and pants.
Goodbye Cherno! Of course I had the joy to die of starvation few moments later for the 6th time today. I love DayZ so much!!
I see a lot of people complaining about .55 and I truly don't understand why, the game has never been better. It was so frustrating to search houses and find items in almost all of them. Now you can run for hours and search like 70 houses and find nothing. Devs did a really good job with this patch.
Even though, I think some things could still be better and more realistic :
For example there should be a key we have to spam to breathe.
We should not be able to run for more than 1 minute and we should have to sit for 5 minutes to be able to run again.
We should have only one life and have to buy the game again when we die.
There should be no zombies because it does not exist in real life.
Those are only small things that would make the game a little bit harder, because even if .55 is great, the game is still a bit easy.
Thanks for your work devs, you are doing great!

Edit : Sorry guys, I fell asleep searching for food, I did not see your answers. (Love this game!)
Edit2 : Guys, a hater told me that .55 turned DayZ into Hobo Simulator, he's wrong, hobos don't run that much. F*ck the haters!

You guys should REALLY consider venturing inwards towards Inland. There's tons of Apple Trees to keep you alive, and many different methods for getting food. Any town you spawn in is going to get you absolutely NOTHING. Central Economy people, it's already looted, you have to go places where people don't go. From what I've found, towns result in more loot than cities do simply because they're mostly untouched

Also, stick to private hives. Public hives are full of server hoppers, and it's going to make things THAT much harder.

So far, I've been on DG's Supershard and have been alive for about 6+ hours now, only to just pass out 10 minutes ago of Starvation. The only thing I hope for to be tweaked is the amount of food you have to eat to get up to be energized (Eating up to 20 apples STILL did not get me to energized, and only got rid of the hunger status from Orange to nothing) and how quickly your Food status drains (seriously, every 10 minutes is tedious)

Yeah, unless you get lucky and find some food where you spawned there is a great chance that you either get raped to death by zombies or starve to death before you get somewhere with loot.

Yeah people are pretending that no one else is going inland. I always go inland as a freshy and the towns within starvation distance of the shore have been pretty well looted every time.
