6 key binds players often miss in DayZ

I often see or hear of people not knowing about these DayZ keybinds so thought I'd make a quick video on it. Some are purely QoL things, others will help you get better at PVP etc. Hopefully it'll help someone.

#DayZ

These are _default_ bindings on PC - if you have changed them then you should look at the equivalent for your config.

0:00 Introduction
0:15 QUICK DROP ITEMS
0:35 RELOAD AMMO / MAGS
0:57 ROTATE ITEMS
1:13 HEAVY MELEE ATTACK / RUNNING MELEE ATTACK
2:01 USING NVG / APSI
2:21 WEAPON MELEE / PISTOL WHIP

I'm aiming to release more videos based on DayZ PVP and other DayZ standalone gameplay and stories in the coming weeks. I mostly play DayZ Chernarus and Namalsk but also end on Esseker from time to time. I've only been playing the new DayZ Banov map recently though.

Please consider dropping a subscribe - it really helps me out

I thought didn't need the video with over 3k hours in the game but as a lefty! I never use the heavy melee, block and honestly never knew about the left ctrl to drop all lol. Just goes to show every days a school day! Its epic to hear an English voice albeit a tad quiet for me but cracking presentation and content. Liked n subbed :)

This video is a MUST for noobs and ppl who only occasionally play. Great vid

Nice one been playing for a few years and didn’t know the LCTRL and click to drop items 😅

Most importantly, F4. Use this to make friends with random survivors.

I wish there was a key to quick loot as opposed to quick drop
