Getting started
From the launcher to your first extract.
Find the server
In the DayZ Launcher, open the Community tab and search for DeadZone. Or use Direct Connect with
217.208.71.201:2302.Download the mods
The launcher shows the mods the server needs. Subscribe to them all and wait until Steam has finished downloading before you join.
Pick a spawn
Choose Chernogorsk, Elektrozavodsk, Berezino or The Wild in the spawn menu.
Join the Discord
Wipe news, events and support all happen there. It is also the easiest place to find a group.
Your first hour
- Third person is turned off. Use corners, doors and sound.
- Loot a town for the basics, then look for a column of smoke. That is an extract.
- Sell what you don't need at the trader and keep your money in the bank.
- Place a sleeping bag or bed somewhere hidden. You can have up to 2 as spawn points.
- One in-game day lasts 4 hours, so night comes around often. Bring a light.
